-DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LOADED*
Tlie young man fell dead!
A friend had pointed a revolver at him.
"He didn’t know it was loaded!”
We often hear it stated tliat a man is
not ree;>onsible for what be does not
know. The law presupposes knowledge
and therefore convict* the man who ex
cuses crime by ignorance!
"If I had only known” has often been
an unfortnuste man's apology for some
evil unknowingly wrought, but in a
matter of general interest—as for in
stance that laudanum is a poison, that
naphtha is a deadly explosive, that blood
heavily charged witli a winter’s accumu
lations of the waste of the system,—it is
one’s duty to know the fact und the conse
quences thereof. Our good old grand
mothers knew for instance, that the open
ing of spring waa tlie most perilous period
of the year.
WhyT
Because then the blood stream ie
sluggish and chilled by the cold weather,
and if not thinned a good deal and made
to flow quickly and healthfully through
the arteries and veins, it is impossible to
have good vigor the rest of tlie year.
Hence, without exception, what is now
known as Warner’« Log Cabin Sarsa
parilla, was plentifully made and
religiously given to every member of the
family regularly through March, April,
May and June. It is a matter of record
that tliis prudential, preventive and re
storative custom saved many a fit of
sickness, prolonged life and happiness to
a vigorous old age, and did away with
heavy medical expenditures.
Mrs. Maggie Kercliwal, Lexington,
Ky., used Warner’s Itog Cabin Sarsa
parilla "for nervous slide headache of
which I had been a sufferer M yearB.
It has been a great benefit to me.”
Capt. Hugh Harkins, 1114 8. 16th St.,
Philadelphia, Pa., saya “it purified my
blood and removed the blotches from my
skin.” Mrs. Aarea Smith,Topton, Berka
Co., Pa., says she “wua entirely cured of
a skin disease of the worst kind,” by
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla. Bad skin indi
cates a very bad condition ot the blood.
If you would live and be well, go to
{our druggist to-day and get Warner’s
x»g Cabin Sarsaparilla and take no
other,—there’s nothing like it or as good,
—and completely renovate your impaired
system with this simple, old-fashioned
preparation of roots and herbs.
Warner, who makes the famous Safe
Cure, puts it up, and that is a guarantee
of excellence all over the known world.
Take it yourself ami give it to the other
meniliers of the family, including the
children. You will be astonished at its
health-giving and life prolonging powers.
We aay tliia editorially with peifect
confidence, Itecatiae we have heard good
things of it everywhere, and it« name is
a guarantee that it is first class in every

ENGLISH OOMPOSITION.
Th» Advisability of Condvns'ng Seatance*
Into Cinusws, and Clause* Into Words.
At its beat, language is inadequate
to express thought Thought is of the
spirit and lauguuge m of the body;
thought is infinite, language, finite.
A far-reaching truth is rendered in the
beautiful line, of tlie Laureate:
Break, break, break
On thy cold gray .tones, O sea I
And I would that ray tongue could utter
The thoughts that arise tn me.
On account of this incapacity of lan
guage our thought, must bo definite,
before we can express them in words.
Language can only be a Delphic oracle
for vagueness. In an ideal sentence,
there is an exact balance lietween the
thought and the expression, so that
there are just enough words to express
the thought. Writers whose vocabu
lary is ample and whose ideas are
comprehensive, strivo to keep this bal
ance of thought and language. Those
whose idea, are vague are apt to bo
lavish of words. Tlie English rus ic
relatively makes a greater draft upon
his little stock of words to express his
<liin notions than did either Shakes
peare or Milton to utter their grand
ideas. The word s of the wise are few
and well chosen; every utterance shows
that they would rather meditate than
speak. Hence their sayings are often
oracular, and if they err it is on the
side of speaking too little rather than
too mtioh.
The sentence of Goethe, “Thought
widens, but lames; activity narrows,
but quickens," will bear pages of ex
pansion. Whon the cask is full, the
duid runs iu jets from the spigot; when
it is nearly empty, tlie liquid conies
freely. Yet to use too few words is n
greater error than to use too many.
Superfluous words may be removed,
hut missing words can not always lie
supplied.
But as few arc wise enough to be too
concise, and as thousands err in being
too diffuse, we must notice the error of
verbosity, or that of using too ninny
words. In the discourse of n colored
preacher occurred the following sen
tence: “After much consideration and
serious reflection I have arrived at the
deliberate conclusion, that in those
cities where the population is large,
I here is a greater number of mon.
women and children, than in those
cities where the population is les,.”
Here a fact so Apparent that it needs
io statement is amplified bo that on
he minds of the hearers its nothing-
nesi would not bo impressed. This
leedlesi amplification is too often the
fault of the clergy; and many a bubble
>f conceited utterance might be blown
into a drop by n breath of common
tense.
A serviceable rule for such writers
would be: Scan every sentence; then
condense your sentences into clauses;
your clauses into phrases; your phrases
uto words; and if you do not really
need the words blot them out A ver
bose writer, above all others, need, the
unsparing hand of kindly crilicism.
Circumlocution or indirectness is not
dways a fault. Soniolinies it is better
to suggest an idea than it is to expross
it. Chaucer did not wish to tell his
renders that the sea captain drowned
his captives, so he said be sent them
home by water. In act first, scene
fourth of "King Lear,” Goneril takes
fourteen lines to nttcr what tlie Fool
couches in two linos. When the grave-
ligger said to the miser, who hesitated
ibout pitying for the burial of his de
ceased wife, “Down with your dust, or
up she comes!" hi afforded a marked
instance of the desirability of circum
locution.
In cases whore It is not needed, it is
i grave fault of style. In Dickens'
sketch, “The Steam Excursion,” he
'Im, describes one of the characters:
“Mr. Hardy was observod, some hours
iftorward, in nn attitude which in-
luced his friends to suppose that ho
was busily engaged in contemplating
tlio beauties of the deep; they only re
gretted that his tasto for the pict

times, but e»p< daily so to an indi
vidual laboring u i ler a tendency of

LIFE ON
THE
ROAD.
K«p«rlenc.- or ,1.» IVllu Ar. C'olnpoled
to Travel Every Day.
Thun there is another Urge group
who are “on the road” nearly every
dev. These are tile men whost busi
ness, trades or calling tire in town and
whose dwell lug-houses or family places
of abode for the linvj being aro out of
town, at the shore or in the couutry.
Oil this class observations may be
made. Some of them make a dreary
and lireso ne job of th tir daily journey
to and fro, es;>ecinlly if therido tnkns
an hour or two. They Iniry thomse'.vei
in silenco, or they make futile < fforta
to read profitless and tra-hy "light

or they at once sot to work to try to go
to sleep, and all "to kill time.” nnd so
mnku a wear some In loir or feverish

monotonous, dull, and very tedious
business with them as they work it—n
profitless expen litore of lime, most of
them getting very tired of it before the
summer is over.
There is a "romnatiL” however,
who go »'on tho road” to butler pur

don’t try to "kill time” in any of the
ways already mentioned. Ono of this
group we havo in mind at this mo
