Of all the contemptible, despic able specimens of humanity that one runs across in this big, round world, triers is none, to our notion, more thoroughly to le condemned than the foul-mouthed, vulgar minded male who unjustly lays claim to the title of "man." The individual whips his wife, who beats hia children, who stesle bis neighbor's wood, who robs a widow hen roost; who cheats, or gambles, or drinks, or swears, or blasphemes, or breaks the Sabbath or do other dastardly devil is not one whit more deserving of a coat of tar ami feathers, or of being given a free ride out of town on a rail than is the husband, father, eon or brother who makes a prac tice of uttering vulgar remarks about young girls" or women who happen to come within their notice. That these things occur daily in every city, town and hamlet in our great commonwealth is a fact un deniable, and one to bring a, bluet) of shame to the cheek of every hon orable man. The habit is one that should be wiped out, to tho end that a higher and holier regard and respect for womankind may be established, ... 1 K....u ana that our young men ou mav early learn from prnoept and example that to utter a vulgar re mark about any woman is to cam a direct slur at their own mothers and eislers and to lower their own manhood materially in the opinion of all decent people.

We do this seemingly unconscious of the var ious times we have been humbugg ed ourselves. We may not have been deoeived in the same manner nor by the same thing as was th other follow. The man who would buy a gold brick might know bet ter than to allow a fellow like Stone to locate him on a timber land claim where there wasn't enough timber to supply him with tooth picks. Not all men are suckers but they are fish of some kind, and whether they may or may not be taken in depends entirely ou the kind of bait that is used. Still, with these facts in mind, it seems strange that a myriad of fish takes the hook bailed with a morsel of soap. It would seem that soap would be positively necessary to digestion, or that it performs some function far more important than the one for which it is commonly used. Any kind of soap answers the purpose so long, apparently, as it passes through the hands of a street hawker. His manipulation and assurance in wierd words seems to impart a charm and potency not in any measure possessed by the best brands of soap in the local market. There had not been for a long time in this locality a fisherman who baited with soap, and a large number of Coryallis people had not been able to supply the require ments of their physicial well-being. A few who were financially able to do so, went, to the Fair and becama amply satisfied for the lime anJ laid in a winter's supply; but the greater majority of those w ho. have asquired the soap habit, if it may be so termed, were compelled to In the good old days the sexton announc ed a death in the community by a stroke on the church bell for every year of the life that was Peonle r . r - expected, then, to live to old age, and speculation at the first tup of the bell took a narrow range including only those who had lived the al lotted time. There is no rea son why people should not have the same expectancy of ntfe to-day, except for the neglect and abuse of the one organ on which all the other organs depend the stomach. l)r. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery enables men and women to be strong and healthy, by curing diseases of the stomach (ana other or gans of digestion and nutri tion), which prevent the C roper nourishment of the ody.

Y. the remain tt home and suffer pangs of a long felt want. Providentially, however, a vender arrived in the town last Tuesday and there was great joy among that portion of the populace which had suffered so keenly. Many bad become emaciated from the long fast and it was delightfnl to observe with what appreciation thev hailed the advent ot the fakir. lie mount ed bis platform at four o'clock in the afternoon of Tuesday and viewed the hungry assemblage with complaisance.bis practiced eye giving hin unmistakable assurance of a rich harvest. It is not necessary to state that he found business good. There was such a demand f.r the article that the supply soon exhausted but he assured the clamoring throng that he would have an ample quan tity at the evening "lecture." While in this respect his statement proved true, it might not have been so except for bis assurance that he would be there two or three days longer, a statement which he was not borne out by subsequential events . The fakir paid his respects also to those people who imagine that there is great efficacy in medicine with an Indian name and they in turn paid him their hard cash. They were to use the remedy three days, and if it did not perform a list ui wonders as long as a poor sermon, purchasers were to return the medicine and get the purchase price with a handsome present ia addition. Other baits of similar character were sucessfully used. but fakir's sojourn here was brief. He did not remain to ascertain whether or not the siwash medidine had done its work to the satisfaction of the purchasers. He was satisfied, and then there were fish in other towns awaiting,bim. He Learned a Great Truth. It is said of John Wesley that he once said to Mistress Wesley: "Why do you tell that child the same thing over and over again?" "Johu Wesley, .because. once telling Is not enough." Il is for the same reason that you are told again and again that Chamber lain's Cough Ketuedy cures colds aud grip; that it counteracts any tendency of these diseases to result in pieu moula, aud that it is pleasaut and safe to take.

It is only a matter of taking proper care ot them when they are once made, and this must be done with Regularity' and system. In Eng land the road-mender is always at work. He lives in a cottage on the road, and takes care of a section which has been assigned to him. With hiB barrow he fills the worn places with flint and removes the litter from the road-way Keeping it neat and tidy. There ia an inspec tor for every county division, and all the roads are under the charge of a committee of the county council. From beginning to end of the year nearly every mile of English coun try road is under charge of a road mender, paid to do bis work. Mrs. T. D.
