An excep tion to the rule is the author of a story in LippincottsC) ristmas num ber, who puts herself in the plaoe of one, The Studio Mouse, she calls it, aud listens to the secrets of an artist lover and his lass, then freely reveals them to the reader. It is a go6d story, well told. Another one is The Wildwood Limited, showing the intense love which a locomotive engineer has for his eugiue, making a new high record for Cy Warman, a writer of railroad stories of con siderable merit. . The O. R. N. Co. is putting in 100 telephones at that many points along the line, to relieve the tele graph system. Cabooses will be. equipped with telephone instru ments.

In this way oidere may be sent to conduct ore while on the road between stu tions, and many expensive and an uoyiug delays avoided.

Everybody will know that selfish rues always defeats itself. The eburehet will not be closed as long ns the saloons are open. - To get rich by making others poorer will be considered a crime. The Golden Rule, will be regard ed as sound business philosophy. The same staudard of morality will be demanded of men as of women. - ' All true happiuess will be found in doing the right, aud only the good will be fouud to be real. « The business man will,find that his best interests will ba the best interests of the m an at the other end of the bargain. All hatred, revenge aud jealousy will bq regarded as boomerangs which inflict upon the thrower tlm injury iutendedrfor others. When a man who seeks amuse rnent by causing paiu or taking the life of innocent, dumb creatures, will be considered a barbariau. When every man will be bis own pbysiciah, and will carry his own remedy with him; when mind, uot medicine, will be the great panacea. When men will realize that there ettn be no real pleasure in wrong doing, because the Bting and pain that follow more than outweigh the apparent pleasure. Wheu the world will have every thing to sell and nothing ¡to give, and the price it demands will be the best servioe the purchaser can ren der the l ace. , When it will be found that re pression and punishment are not reformative, and our prisons will be transformed into great eduoative and character building institutions. When it will be found that phys ical and chemioal^forcee were in tended to release man from all phys ical drudgery, and so free his mind from the burden of living getting that he can make a life. When no man will be allowed to say that the world owes him aliv» ing, since the world owes him noth ing that be should not pay for. It owes a living only to cripples, in valids, and all others who cannot, through some misfortune, help themsel ves. —- When the ‘best society’ will con. sisfc of men at)d woqpjn’ of brain, culture and achievement, rather than those whose chief merit and distinction lie in the possession of unearned fortunes, which they make it the business of their lives to squander.

Referriug to the work of the Urinals in Oregon, an exchange says: “ A representative, rupubli- can government, which the con stitution of the United States guarantees to every state, has l>een referended out of existenoe, and government by petition, circumlo cution, chaucc and graft,4 u revised aud new form from what the party workers have been in the habit of turniug out, is now rattling around loose, ifobddy knows where, or how, or what for.” —• There is a Latin proverb which translated incurs, “ No day without a lino,” aud was originated by Appellee, a famous urtist, who was accustomed to do something daily in the practice of bis art, if it was only to draw a straight line. Let uath one of us take this home to ourselves and do not let a day ¡►ass without doing something to better the town, if nothing more than to tell a neighbor how muoh (»etier it is to trade at home than to send away for supplies.
