A number of new comers from Kansas, who will make their future home at Falls City, got off the train Monday evening. John Turner and family, of Saverton, Missouri, are visiting with his brother, R. R. Turner. Mr. Turner may locate in this part of the country. It is reported that postmaster Griggs of Falls City, who was re moved by the postal authorities about one month ago, will be al lowed to retain his old position. The railroad gang of track layers arrived in Dallas Monday after noon, and will push the work of putting down heavy steel on to Airlie.

The increasing value set upon health, as shown alike in sanitary laws and regulations and in the greater willingness manifested by the com- a 1 . iminity to utmerstanu ami auopi hygenic modes of life, is beyond dispute, the improvement in house building and drainage; the intro duction of water, pure and plentiful; the freer admission of fresh air; tho better sytems of ventilation; the brillianO lighting up of our city streets-all contribute to the pre vention ofcritneaiultothe spread of a higher typo of morality, while increasing the health, peace and comfort of the community. There are some persons who feel quite jMiwerless to help on the cause of reform or to improve the moral character of a single individual, because they have no gift for in fluencing men by direct appeal They have perhaps, tried and failed, and so although they would like to do some good in the world, they are hopeless of any success.

Preaching and teaching, persuading and warn ing, exorting ana encouraging, are instrumentalities worthy of all honor, and those whose abilities qualify them for such tasks should receive every posible stimulus to exert them in bo noble a cause. But it ia a great mistake to suppose that these are the only means to promote morality. Every truly civilized influence is also a reform ing one.
