there beneath the snowy coverlids

mother, they still let their eyes fall

Low dear Santa will ever come down

mind once more to action. Sweet
faith that has no doubts, that of the
tbe child is Santa, and a lesson of
valne for every adult. . The little
cues believe iu Santa and bis mar
velous ways, aud questions never.
So" man, a child as far as knowledge
of the future ie concerned, should
place his faith ru that One presented
to him in Lis baby days along with
Saute, and never raise a doubt to
eh ado w it.

Of i itn ee the money is only enough to

patient and Ekillful fingers will fash

is the mutual' tboughtfulnesti of oth

Admiral Sibley like Dewey, has de
voted a life-time to the si udy of naval
tactics: -and warfare, which in tbe
case of each, has culminated in
crowning, and glorious naval victory
tbe like-i of which is unknown in the
htatory of naval warfare' and which
demonstrates the efficiency and nn
daunted courage of both of these
fcturdy heroes in the modern naval
science, but this is no criterian what
ever to their ability and emciency in
successfully guiding the grand old
ship of state Admiral Dewey has
already been found wanting in tbe
ebar act eristics aud qualifications for
a statesman aud chief executive and
these requirements are no less want
ing iu the make up of Admiral Scb
ley.- While these two distinguished
characters are regarded a-t the great -64
naval heros of tbe age. and no
one wishes to detract in tbe least
from their grea. and well deeervnd
popularity, the country generally
would no doubt receiva the anuouu
cement of Admiral Schley's accept
ance of the nomination for tbe ptesi
dency with tbe saoji coolness and
indifference which marked adrntml
Dewey's brief polictCAl boomlel.

The thoughtful editor of the Sa
lem Independent speaking of the
murder by Wade and Dalton, of
Portland, says: "Whiskey, ganib-
iDg, cigarettes and .bad companions
have all been factors in the awful
fate now etaring these young men in
tbe face." Thte thfrigs thould all
be left alone by the yonug man
who wauls to keep away frviu the
gnllu as. - -
Secretary Long seized with ayitUlv
tbe opportunity to uphold the tuuiiugs
of Beuham and Uauieey and attempts
to discredit the opiuiou of Dewey ;an
other popular idol. Hid position
can be credited to New England
narrowness and utter disregard . of
tbe popular voice of the people.
When will this unfortuLate contro
versy end?
"I think Admiral Dewey's praiso
of Schley is just. It does not di
minish Admiral Sampson's glory, to
whom, as superior commander was
due the posit ions of tbe ships,' held
in tbe line of blockade and without
whose instructions the result might
be seen in another light," says Capt.
Diaz, of the vanquished Spanish bat

FACTS
w. " bT.TT7rnajiaij
True economy in paint is attained only
when the best; of material is used
We
. carry
the
best
grade
paint
on
the
market
If first-class p.tint costs only one-fifth more than a poor
quality paint, and lasts just twice as long, it stands to
reason that THE BEST IS THE CHEAPEST.
