Lebanon Express. j H. Y. KiRKFATRICK, Cdltor - and - Proprietor. NEWSPAPER-READING GIRLS. The Youth's Companion pub lishes a well-written article on newspaper reading m-' -means of education, as follows: The commonest lack in the edu cation of oihenvii-e well-informed girls is a startling ignorance of co temporary history aiid"g&vermi)eri. Ignorance of such a sirt st ems Btrange to men, who are usually . great newspaper readers. True it is, that nobody can understand fully the present who does not know something of the past. But it is less culpable to-be ig norant of the past thau of the pres ent. History is being niade daily upon a scale heretofore unknown in the world's record and the knowledge of it is within every one'B reach. Every morning the daily papers give a synopsis of the history of the worll for the pjirf twenty-four hours. With this wealth of information at hand, the average girl is (piite satisfied to read the society and fashion columns very attentively, to skim over the deaths and mar riages, glance at the theatrical ad vertisements and the baseball score, and then say complacently, that she "h;is read the paper." While many journals afford much had reading in the shape of ruur- ders, divorces and like horrors, there are others that give the smallest possible space to these events, and treat chiefly of t lie larges things of life. Besides, no one iB compelled to read hor rors, and it indicates a certain want of refinement in any mind that turns to this sort of tiling. Almost the first requisite of dis cerning taste is to know what not to iviid. It has often been remarked that in no country have women played so important a part as in France and a very slight knowledge of French society explains this. French women keep themselves thoroughly in touch with cutem porary life. The French "salon" has not been transplanted, because nowhere else can enough women be found who take interest in the things in wiiich men take interest public affairs coming first. Josiah Quincy in his remi niscences of the early part of he century says, that one reason of the great political power of the South at that time, which was wholly dis . proportioned to its wealth, popula tion or territory, was the superior political knowledge of the .South ern women. He says that this was especially noticeable at Washing ton, where women from all parts of the country were assembled and that the beit constitutional ar gument in favor of states' rights lie ever heard, was from the lijn of a charming Southern woman. It may he said that not only the power, but the charm of women is much increased by their knowing wtiat it going on around them. In a large city, a winter or two ago," a "newspaper class" was or ganized' among same bright yriing girls. They met once a week, and1 each in turn gave u synopsis of the most striking events of the preced ing week after which a. general; discussion followed. They then selected some subject of public interest to study for the next meeting. In that wny .they got a fair knowledge of the tariff, the silver question, the regenera tion of the American no.yy, the condition of European politics. So wonderfully (lid the conversation if these young girls improve, from the broadening of their minds, that two young fellows were overheard devising a way to keep up with tbera. Raid Frtd: "The girls are be ginning to talk gisiise." , 0 "Do you mean," asked Dick, "tho.-e college girls that know all about the integral calculus and csm't tell the name of the President of France, or why Grover Cleve land couldn't have been born in Canada? They don't talk sense." "Oh no! I mean those newspaper-reading girls, that' a fellow lias to keep wide awake with, for fear they'll think him a blooming idiot. What's to be done about it?" "Choke 'em off, or learn to talk sense ourselves." We can't choke 'em off" (very gloomily), '"I guess we'll have to talk sense, too!" J UN KINDEST CUT OF ALL. Some of the delegates to the Pop ulist convention in Albanv were pledged not to vote for any man for office who is known to be seek ing an office, nor for any man who was an office-seeker in the old par ties. If the. .convention follows this plan, where will they get their nominees? Is it a crime to be an office-seeker? Then many promi nent members of the P. P. arc crim inals. In fact, much of the brains of the P. P. is owned by old office seekers. This is certainly class legislation. It is gratifying to know, the Pop ulists of Lebanon did not so in struct their delegates. Send the ExrnKss to some of your eastern friends for the next three and a half months. Only "5 cents. HAPl'Y HOME. Johu French is slowly improving, but is still very wcttk. Jliss Eva Prior spent a day with Mrs. Uec, the florist. .Miss Downing U to teueli the spring term of school t Happy Home. W. H. Cimiuiings is making some substantial improvements, Bain and snow; farmers begin to look a little disheartened on account of the bad weather, miuiiled with the hard times. Very Utile full plowing was done, and they fear they will be too late in getting their crop in to in sure a crop. j James Gee is now happy. He has got rid of tlie school clerkship, but that school money in the Lebanon Bank worries him a little. Keep a stiff up per lip, Jim, and all will be righted. There was an effort made at the an uunl nehoul meeting for a riivisiuii of the district, but it failed. Money is too scarce at the present to build new buildings. Mr. Winkler takes the place of Mr. Gee as clerk of this district not a very desirable office, with the school money In the banks and then failing of being delivered.

Call and see hint. A severe rheumatic pain in the left slioulikr had troubled Mr. J. H. Loier, a well known d.-uggist of Dee Moines, Iowa, for over she months. At times the pain was so severe that he could not lift anything. With all he could do he could not get rid of it until he applied Ohaaiberlaiu's Pain Bulni. "I only made three applioirious uf It," he says, "And have since feeii free from all pain." He now recommends it to R-rsot n similarly alllicted. It is fur sale by X. W. tiliiitii, druggiat.
