rf !s Lcbnipi Express. FRIDAY, OtTOBEIl 5, 1SSS. THEN AND NO JP, The boys nml girls of the present day lutve indeed a "bully time" wmpared with the boys and girls of tffty years spo, that Is, if Iialf the stories told by ! the old folks concerning their child- j JukhJ days be tiue. Tluti the young i folks had plenty of work, little school ing, nnd no play. Now they have no work, considerable schooling and lots f play. No one, per&aps, unless it be n few old fogies, regrets that the "gcxxl !! days" of All work and no play have Kne, aecer more to return, but there j-rs-wsuy who seriously doubt that the present system of nil play and no work i a good one for the youth of our land. JirU do uot have to work now-a-days s they used to in years gone by, and oys will not. Ther,e are individual fcxeeptioji to this rule, of course, but the rule still holds good. The general prosperity of the country, which makes it no longer an alsolute necessity that the young must work or starve, is re ponsible for this state of things, for which all should be truly thankful. Yet, notwithstanding this marked im provement, tire idle boy is quite too numerous. It Is not entirely the fault of the boy that he is idle- It is scarce ly probable that he is naturally more lazy than his grandfather was, but times are changed and circumstances are different." There is but little work for him to do, poor boy, and so he loaft around the street and smokes cigarettes to kill time while waiting for "some thing to ura up." Roseburg Plain dealer. - SPECIFIC EDUCATION. Mr. Vanderbilt pays his cook $10,000 a year, my boy, which is a great deal more than yon and I earn 'or at least it Is a great deal more than we get iieeause he can cook. That is &1L Pre sumably because he can eook better than any other man in America. That is all. If Monsieur Sauceandgravi ould eook tolerable well, and shoot a little, and speak t&ree languages toler able well, and keep books fairly, and ng some, and understood gardening pretty well, and could preach a fair sort of a sermon, and knew Something about horses, and could telegraph a little, and could, do light porter's work, and could do plain bouse and sign painting, and could help on a thresh ing machine, and knew enough law to praetiee in the justices' courts of Kick apoo township, and had once run for the legislature, and knew how to weigh hay, he wouldn't get $10,000 a year for it. He gets that just because he knows how to cook, and it wouldn't make a cent's difference in his salary if he thought the world was flat, and that it went around ita orbit on wheels. There's nothing like knowing your business clear through, my boy, from withers to hock, whether you know anything else or not. What's the good f knowing everything? Only the sophomores are omniscient. Bob Bur tlette. SEASONABLE ADVICE. Don't talk politics in a loud tone cf "voice in puolie places. Don't get red and apoplectic over the virtues of your own candidate or the failings of one on the other side. Don't abuse your opponent when you get to discussing politics wich him. Don't fight him particularly if he looks able to lick you. Don't think it necessary to hold up a bar every night in the consideration of the affairs of the nation. You don't need any more rum in a presidential year than any other. Don't bet. Give your wife the money you think you can afford for wagere, and then yon will be sure not to lose it. Few people have but little idea of the magnitude and size of Oregon and Washington Territory, combined, as compared with other States in the Union, especially our friends in the East. We herewith give a few com parisons: Oregon and Washington Ter ritory are larger than the states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maryland, New Jersey, Delaware and West Vir ginia by 2000 square miles. They are larger than North Carolina, Sfiftith Car olina, Virginia and Kentucky by 2000 square miles. Tbey are larger than Kngland, Ireland, Switzerland and Holland by 90O0 square miles. They would make five states larger than Maine, or thirty-three states larger than Connecticut, or 132 states larger than Rhode Island. News comes from Paris to the "effect that Senator Stanford, of California, is the victim of a queer malady, making bim sleep when he wants to be awake and stay awake when he wants to ulcep, or rather makes both involun tary. This marks the breaking up of a frreiit physique, and foreshadows the political end of one of those early Cal ifornians who used to cut such a wide ewathe. These men, allcf them genial and most of them generous, bold aikl resourceful, have nearly all passed out of notice- The oft-repeated story of the vanity of riches is told in their life t-t ries with the inexorable voice of fate. ' Several Indians who went on the war path lately have teen transferred to the happy hunting ground by a party of whites. And a writei who is prone to look only upon the humorous side of life remarks: "It is to be feared that our government had not provided the unfortunate Indians with the latest iniproyed rifles. Congress should see that the charge is thoroughly investi gated." Work continues on the Panama ca nal, and in spite of the gloomy reports made, several sections of it have been completed and accepted from the hands of the contractors by the company. It is greatly to be hoped that De Lswps will yet liv to see ships float through his wonderful channel, across the isth mus. . Mrs. Mal i; B. Kd wards is editor and publisher of the Bay City Bazoo, a aew paper in Tillamook county. When her gentle "bazoo" is heard in the land the male editor will crawl intohis hole and pu!l it in after him. . " W. C T. t. AND SISDAT COICMS. "Peace on Earth and Good Will to Mctu" Faith and hope are temporary lights designed to guide us through the dark and rugged path of our earthly pil grimage, but love Is a never dying flame, whose light shall shine upon us after we have reached our home. Faith shall yield up Its place to sight, and hope shall give place to enjoyment, but love shall never cease. A boy who is polite to his father and mother is likely to be polite to every body else. A boy lacking politeness to his parents may have the semblance of courtesy in society, hut is never truly polite in spirit. As he becomes famil iar he will betray his real want of cour tesy in spite of all his attempts hot to. This is an imierfect world, and nothing except God's government of it can be perfect. The men, therefore, who complain and fight on the ground that injustice is done them by the fact that some other men, in certain cir cumstances, are happier than they, are vainly contending against the inevit able. United Presbyterian. The Bible, while preaching a doc trine of grace and salvation for sinners through Jesus Christ, and thus offer ing ho;e to this guilty world, preaches no salvation for those who live and die in their sins, and no future" probation in which they can correct the mistakes of this life. Men must accept the sal vation of the gospel here, or, so far as it is known, have no salvation at all. MOTHERS. At present there are mothers who are not mothers. In the true sense they have never borne the children they rear to maturity. Such are not to blame; they have never learned what life means nor do they know themselves. Walking in a dream, they take the show of things for the reality. Un winged butterflies, they flourish their feeble day and leave no impress upon their starved progeny, On the other hand the un wedded or they who have never known a mother's fruition, often stretch out the arms of their spirits to take in all the sad, sick and weary that desolately walk the earth. The mother instinct is then not narrowed selfishly to one family, but grows broad as the heavens from which .came a love so wonderful. It j takes in whoever needs "mothering" to shelter on the great heart that waits ! not for the human tie before accepting that of the spirit. Is not this truly the highest and holiest motherhood to which woman can attain? The true feeling of motherhood still exists in all perfection, even though the usual exhibitions be generally ex ternal. Said a wise woman lately: "I never thanked the Great Mystery for Jesus till I knelt by the cradle of my first born. What was it floated In and enspl.ercd my consciousness about the subjective revelation of an inexpressi ble and holy love, the conscious throb cf an Infinity rooted in human veins? There is nothing so glerious and so awful under the sun, the rejected wo manhand patiently lifting through the ages the supreme Humanity to its throne!" Finding- the Rvftl Man. Love sees the virtues that are of the soul, hatred only the diseases of the skin. "All men have their fault, and stealing was Bill's," said a weeping widow over the corpse of a desperado, shot in attempted burglary. And gro tesque, ludicrous as the expression may seem, she was right. She kuew that not in the robber, the law breaker, the outcast, did the real man shine forth, but in those rarer ruoods of kindliness and generosity when he was the true friend and husband. Perhaps when two enemies, who have refused to see any good in each other on this earth, meet hereafter m another world, free from the muddy vesture of decay ; which clogs their vision here, the first thought of each will be, "Is this the ! beautiful soul that I maligned and hated?" Lippineott's Magazine. A Valuable Publication. In these days of special publications it is a rare treat to find one possessing the artistic and literary merit of a gen eral literary magazine, while devoting its energies chiefly to conveying intell igence of a special character. Such a magazine is the West Shore, published at Portland, Or., at the extremely rea sonable price of $2 50 a year. It d- l votes its attention mainly to engrav ings and descriptions of the industries, resources, picturesque scenery, cities and towns of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, British Columbia and Alaska. A large art supplement, in colors or tints, accompanies each num ber. A special offer is made tothote who subscribe now for 1.VS9. To all such the September, Octoler, Novem ber and December numbers of 1S88 will be sent free. The present session of Congress is the longest in the history of the nation, and from the best data at hand it ap pears to have accomplished the least. It will probably continue in session throughout the year, with the excep tion of a short vacation. The yellow fever so alarmingly prev alent throughout the South is subsid ing. Cool weather and frost have ap peared, and there is joy in the towns that were anticipating the appearanae of the dread scourge. Over 1000 vaccine points were dis posed of by the drug stores of McMinn--ille in one week. The President has approved the Chi nese exclusion bill. Notice.

Milster rigged up a very in genious suicidal contrivance and put a bullet through his brain. He took a large rifle and fastened the stock to the rail of the stalls in the barn, resting the muzzle on a box. He lay down in front at right angles with the direction of the gun-and touched the trigger with a long stick with a notch cut in it for the purpose. The bullet entered his head near the right ear and passed through the brain, causing instant death. The family returned about noon, and his 12-year-old daughter entered the barn to put up the horse, when she found the body of her father. Milster was r.gcd alout GO, and had lived in Marion county over thirty years. He Mas deranged in mind. Last spring he was examined as to his sanity, but was discharged. He was wealthy and had quite a large family, nearly all daughters. Saturday he withdrew securities, notes, etc., from the bank, amounting to quite an amount, and these at last accounts had not been found. Question. Here are some more questions which I ask Rev. J. R.

The First Sign Of failing health, whether in the form of Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a sense of General Weariness and Loss of Appetite, should suggest the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This preparation is most effective for giving tone and strength to the enfeebled system, pro moting the digestion and assimilation of food, restoring the nervous forces to their normal condition, and for purify ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood. Failing Health. Ten years ago my health bepan to fail. I was troubled with a distressing Congh, Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous ness. I tried various remedies pre scribed by different physicians, Dut became so weak that I could not go np stairs without stopping to rest. My friends recommended me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which I did, and I am now as healthy and strong as ever. Mrs. K. L. Williams, Alexandria, Minn. I have nsed Ayer's Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. I have also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an alterative, and must say that I honestly believe it to be the best blood medicine ever compounded. W. F. Fowler, M. D., D. D. S., Greenville, Tenn. Dyspepsia Cured. ' It would be impossible for me to de scribe what I suffered from Indigestion and Headache np to the time I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under the care of various physicians, and tried a great many kinds of medicines, but never obtained more than temporary re lief. After taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla for a short time, my headache disap peared, and my stomach performed its duties more perfectly. To-day my health is completely restored. Mary ijarley, Springfield, Jlass. I have been greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It tones and invigorates the system, regu lates the action of the digestive and assimilative organs, and vitalizes the blood. It is, without doubt, the most reliable blood purifier yet discovered.
