THE 0KPHA.NS'HOME.

The dostriiL'tion of the Orphans' Home will necessitate the erection of a now building. Whether it should be orccl«d on the present grounds or on grounds nearer or in the city, is a question tor the Commissioners and the Board of Directors to seriously consider. There are some reasons why the present location is desirable, but there seems to be more and better causes that it Bhould be located in the city, principal among which that beiag a charitable institution, And being supported largly by the freewill offering of the people it would receive better care aad attention from a greater number than if it remains now located as it is at an inconvenient walking distance. It would unable the matron and her charge to enjoy regular church services and Sunday-school privileges which, at present, are denied them. Probably not a great advantage would be gained in facilities for common school privileges as the Home is nenr an ex cellent public school house, neither could the advantages of a quiet isolation be overcome if located in the city. But altogether it would appear its location in the city, is a matter for due consideration. However, what the decision of the Commissioners and the Board of Direc tors maybe it will be approved by the people. That a new building must bo erected is a proposition conceded by all right-thinkiDg people. It need not be a oostlv structure, but it should be erected with reference to comfort and convenience and with capacity eufliciont to accommodate the demands of the entire countv.

THE sheriff of Marion county proposes to test the new fee and salary law and will bring the question in the courts. The law was not made to stand bat was intended as an electioneering dodge on the part of a lot of Democratic demagogues to land the Alliance vote. Having accomplished its purpose it will be attacked all along the line, and by the time the county officers and the courts get through with it the law will look very much like old man Carter's smoke houB3 which stood between the lines al the battle of Franklin.

RANK D. AIJBIS, the Joint Representative from Montgomery, Putnam and Clay, will shie his caster into the ring for Sieaker of the House. If Ader is the best, material from which the Democrat have to choose the incoming Leg' islalure will be a daisy. Where's McAllister.'

Failure.

To one who loams, thero comes no greatei strength Than that whioh comes through failure. Thla 1 knowThat while success fo*crer prores our las*, Failure has pointed with unerring hand To some still rauder failure. Thus uiy soul lias had no chance to fold its weary wings And rest in ay^thetic victory.

And still the purpose of an earnest'mind Does reach fruition every day and hour. Rather, it makes fruition as it goes. It fails, but counts its failures as success. And in a world on fire, ou tiro itself, Still feels the breathing of a deep content. —Helen Wlhuao*
