There Is no organic, public body of
?.men, elected by the people to attend
io their affairs, that has a shadow of
xight to snub a citizen In any lnan
jner, by word or act. Implied, or di
rrect. Every public officer and repre
sentative, in court, commission or
council, stands squarely in tho light
or n servant, whatever the honor at
taching to the public choice that puts
Jii'm there, and he Is In no sort of
'position to take any discriminative
-attitude totvnrd tho least of the elec
tors, when he. or they, as the cas.
.may be, a.ipear in person or by com
ntunlcation, for ofllcial consideration.
Sonio people, after a long season in
office, are prone to run away with the
Hdea that they are Immune from the
simpler traditions of office and in
dulge in flippant smiles, passing
aneers, and even rude denial, In
-treating people and matters that they
rJeem to be a bit inopportune, or
lurjcsslng, or critical in their present-
-HK.-nt8. This Is the blunder of all
rblnwlers In official life, and always
..Tenets ivlth sharp and decisive effect.
"Every property-owning citizen, and
ilhosc who do not possess a single
thing -except the status of respectable
".citizenship, are amenable to the full
est consideration possiblo at all
ttlmos, and to a dignified disposal of
stfhatsoever he offers.
Thro are those In Marsliflold who
wlo not always remember, nor observe
tine unit rule of official duty in this
relnlion.
There is not a sane elector who
3oes -not wish to respect and obey the
Saw .nnd all its officers, and this
'nnuifimity of feeling is what pre
'serves the law and dignifies It. To
interfere with this condition is the
"Iast phaso of latitude that should bo
-assumed by any man who stands for
ritie people and the law. As common
cronrtesy Is tho cheapest comino-l'ty
fiiMwn In human Intercourse, and ai
rways nt the command of whosoever
would uso I. fivliffovonpo, arrogance,
neglect, become simply Inexcusable
i-anQ intolerable when employed-In tho
offlclnl rolntion. Nor will tho fact
"that an officer or representative is
eternally In touch with tho great
".fpulJlic nnd often beset with incon
rsrtious and disagreeable persons and
-absurd contingencies, alter the Im
perative rl,io of Invariable courtesy.
GOOD KVKNING.

Camping Out.
When summer stands among tho corn
And beckons us away
From city walls of brick and stone
And pavements dusty-gray,
And all the little mountain streame
Are full of speckled trout,
Oh, then It's time for every boy
To go a-camplng out.
The bacon sizzles In the pan,
The coffee smells so good
When mingled with the fragrint
scents
Of morning in the wood.
Our bathtub Is a shady pool,
We frolic, laugh and shout,
And splash the water where we lir-,
When we are camping out.
Tho days are spent with rod and reel,
The nights around the fire.
In telling tales of daring deeds
Our courage to inspire.
Wo talk of home, and wonder what
The folks are all nuout,
And wish that mother, too, was
there,
When we are camping out.
When we come back to school again,
With half the forest's wealth,
In silver birch bark, nests and ferns,
Our cheeks are tanned with
health;
Our eyes are clear and diamond
bright, Our limbs are strong and stout,
And so we plan next year to go
Once more a-camplng out.
LESLIE'S WEEKLY.
Most young follows find it easier to
ask the woman than the father.
At 1C a girl will fall In love with a
man she will be ashamed to speak
to when she Is 20.
I
Every man excuses his impatience
In the conviction that patience is pu
rely a feminine trait.
Most people who receive charity
aro compelled to give more gratitude
than the charity Is worth.
If a woman finds out ten things
her husband was keeping from her,
she guessed seven of them.
If people are not good to you, do
not complain; it Is probably because
you aro not useful to them.
There never was a church so small
that it didn't seem plenty large
enough on prayer meeting night.

Some people's idea of being sincere
Is to show it when they dislike some
one.
Every time a boy shows Ins hands
somebody suggests that ho wash
them.
Tho pessimist has his faults, but
his ideas about fishing aro likely to
be accurate.
Tell a woman she Is not looking
well and she will look triumphantly
at her husband.
All tho world loves a lover except
the man who happens to have the
lover in his employ.
LINE OF LEAST RESISTANCE.
How calm and restful la tho home
Where wlfoy rules the roost!
No tempests over hover round;
No doss of wnr are loosed.
Tho man who leads a blissful Ufa
In cottnRo or In Hat
Allows his mate to have her way
And lots It bo at that.
It la not force that makes for peace
Around his humble Jolnfc
Ho does not win true happiness
By arguing tho point.
But, letting nonessentials slide
And some essentials, too,
Ho gathers to himself repose
From many points of view.
Thus gently for him day by day
Life moves on like a song,
And nil tho neighborhood remark:
"How well they get along!
A family of ono mind like that,"
They say, "Is hard to find."
But that's because the husband ducks
And lets her own tho mind.
And why should not the man glvo In
And lot her run things, pray?
Bccauso he suruly knows how well
Bho likes to have her way,
And ho Is more than passing wise
And billed for pleasure, plus,
"Who early sees how It must be
And doesn't maku a fuss.
Contrary Thing.
Dr. DIx had just returned from a
trip on the Nann Smith and was re
lating his experience to the assem
blage in the Saints and Sinner's
Corner at the Mllllcoma. "No, I
never get much enjoyment out of a
sea voyage."
"And how Is that?" asked W. F.
McKee.
"Oh! something always comes up
to mar my pleasure."
There are so many people In the
world of the kind who discover that
you have gray hairs coming In your
head.
Ed. Ague, of Colorado, got mar
ried recently, whereat the Windsor
(Col.) Poudre suggests that the gifts
of the stork in this case will be lit
tle chills, to which the Golden Trans
cript, also of Colorado, adds: "Un
less she should give her husband the
shake before the bird's arrival."
Mr. Ague's home paper, the Brecken
ridge Bulletin, just to keep the rec
ord straight, comes to the rescue
with the news that the lady was a
widow and had a chill before she got
the Ague having a son three years
old." I don't know the lady's form
er name, but I hope It wasn't La
Fever. It would be too bad for a
child to have both Fever and Ague
blood In Its veins.
A paper gave an account of the fine
service a local rector had conducted.
In another column was the account
of a mad dog. Somehow the articles
were mixed. When the paper came
out, the following article appeared:
"The Rev, James Thompson, rector
of St. Andrew's church, preached to
a largo concourse of people Sunday.
This was his last sermon. In a few
weeks he will bid farewell to his con
gregatlon, as his physician has ad
vised him to cross the Atlantic. He
oxhorted his brethren and sisters, and
after offering a devout prayer (here
is where the articles ran together)
took a whim to cut up some frantic
freaks. He ran up Timothy street
to Johnson, and down Benefit street
to College. At this stage of tho pro
ceedings a couple of boys seized him,
tied a tin kettle to his tail and ho
again started. A great crowd col
lected and after some trouble he was
shot by a policeman. From Judge's
library.
"I suppose tlmt you never quarrel
with your wife."
"Oh, certainly."
"Indeed! Why?"
"Just to see her got good natured."
Bringing Dack the Past.
Seo the man. He Is very unhappy,
lie looks us though he hud lost his last
slmolcou nnd tho sheriff were nbout to
levy on his pet cow.
He Is lu tho courtroom, nnd every
one elbu wears a smile. He could not
laugh though ho wore hired to do bo at
an Immense salary.
They say that misery loves company,
but Just at this moment ho is not
htinkcilng for the presence of a vast
concourse of people.
Why Is lie unhappy? Is ho the pris
oner nt the bar?
No; he Is not the prisoner nt tho bur.
He is tho human gusher, and the law
yer for tho opposition Is about to rend
u lino of love letters he once wroto to
the lady In tho case. Do you wonder
that ho left his smilo at homo?
Wonderlngs.
I used to wonder what of good wise
Providence had seen
About the dire mosquito beating at
my window screen;
The housefly also seemed to mo an
utter, sad mistake,
While floating miserably in the melt-
ed-butter lake;
But chiefest now I wonder why an
all-wise Providence
Gave my Belinda wealthy tastes
and me but fifty cents.
I used to wonder in my soul what
possibility
Of good might bo attached unto tho
energetic ilea;
Perhaps somo mighty benefit induced
tho Power to make
Tho ghastly typhoid microbe nnd tho
deadly rattlosnako.
Wise Providence, .no doubt, was.
right, but, oh, why did It deem
It best to make Belinda havo an ap
petlto for cream?
Tho so futilo wonderlngs of youth!
what little things they seem
To mo, who, now thnt I am grown,
wnlk in a horrid dream,
A waking dream of agony wherein
I always dread
Tho sword of Damocles which hangs
forever o'er my head.
Ah, Providence Is wise, yet why did
It assign to mo
A steam launch sweetheart nnd a tug
boat salary?
