for the spoils has begun at

Terre llante. It is a fight between the Limb and anti-Lamb factions. The p")3toffije is the bone of contention. It remains to be seen which will be the tinder dog in the fight.

I costs the tax payers of Indiana $200 year per capita to care for the inmates of our charitable) institutions. To care for the inmates of the Soldiers' Home at Muncie it costs $73 a year per capita. The one is run by Democratic politicians and the other by the United States Government. Who will-say the Democracy is not a tax.

decision of the Board of Com'-

"missioDers in the Bible-Davis contest case did not decide as a Board that Davis had but four majority. One of the Commissioners reached this conclusion, while the other two held that

Davis had seven majority. Mr. Fullen is an important factor in the Board but he is not entitled to be placed in the plural number.

differences between the Monu

ment Commissioners and the Grand Army of the Republic, growing out of the placing of the figures "184'j-18-4&" in the upper astragal, are in a fair way of adjustment. The committeeo' Grand Anny men met with the Commissioners Wednesday and subnitted aproposition which it is probable will accepted and the matter come to an honorable i, close. The proposition is that the dates in the upper astragal be removed, and that, no opposition shall be made to the tablets on the north base of the innnu ment, which, as the commissioners have voted, shall contain data regarding other ware in which Indiana has been engaged as well as statistics regarding the State'i participation in the war for the Union

The figures in the astragal make the Mexican war an event in the history of Iodiana equal to its participation in the war for the Union. On the other hand tho data on the tablets proposed wi show tue comparative importance of each war or campaign in the history of Indiana. Such tablets will tell the truth, while the astragal dates convey the impression that tho people of Indiana who have erected the monument believed that the participation of the State in the two ware called for an eqnal display of patriotism, va'or and sacrifice.

Epitaphy is a demoralizing kind of tafTy, It appears on the tombstone, and eulogi/.es the dead almost to the very stars. The usual method of beKinniHK, is: "Here lies." Very suggestive, for the lies are frequently quite astoni-hing—almost enough so to botn amuse ar.d amaze the dead of whom they are written. A truthful epitaph, in many instances, would be: "Here lies one who omitted to take Dr. Pierce's Golden Mcdical Discovery." If sick aud suffering, and dreading premature death, test the potent remedy. It cures all chronic, liver, blood, and lung diseases, as biliousness, sitin and sca'p diseases, scrofulous sores and swellings, salt-rheum, tct ter, erysipelas, and even scrofula of the lungs (or Consumption), if taken in time.

The laws of health are taught in our schools but not in a way to lie of mnch practical benefit rind are never illustrated by living examples, which in many cases could easily be done. If some scholar, who had just contracted a cold was bronght before the school, so that all could hear the dsy loud cough, and know its significance' see tho thin white coating on the tongue, and later, as the cold developos, see the profuse watery expectoration and thin watery discharge from the nose, not onoof them would ever forget what the first symptoms of a cold were. The scholar should then be given Chamberlain's CougIJemidy freely, that all might see thai, oven a severe cold could be cured in one or two days, or at loast greatly mitigated, when properly treated as soon as the first symptoms apart.

For once the smooth, monotonous voice was like pweot music in my ears. 1 sat and listened, smiling softly—not a smile of amusement, but of happiness. 1 remember those blissful minutes still I remember them as clearly as though they passed but yesterday tiioy belong to the past of twenty years ago. How blue the sky was!- great, white clouds slowly crossed it, traveling from the west ther* was a quiet sort, of murmur of rustling leaves among the tall white lilies the bees were busy the last of the hay was being carried in tho meadows beyond our garden all the air was sweet with perfume.

The monotonous voice droned on: "I told Mr. Harnet that I would first address von on the subject. lie made some objection to my doing so, but I overruled it. I believe he said that ho should come this morning for his answer I am not sure, b»t I think lie mentioned that he would wish to call on you this morning. My interview with him was somewhat abruptly terminated a visitor was unfortunately announced when I had had but a few minutes' conversation with him. However. I think 1 understood that ho meant to call this morninir. Knowing your Impulsive disposition, Mabel, I thought it best to prepare you. 1 wished you to be perfectly clear about my feelings on the subject. Vou have my permission to accept him: you have my full approval." "Thank yon. papa." He seemed to expect my thanks: I renlered them mechanically. "Mr. Harnet, if not a very wealthy man, is not a very poor one. It is as good a marriage as you can expect to make, ar.d I desire that you will accept him. I am not sure what the exact amount of his income is, but—" "If Ned had fifty pounds a year, If he were a blacksmith or a carpenter or- or any thing, I would marry him like a shot if he asked me!" "My dear, your English, if.graphic, is scarcely classical." "But I don't want to know what Ned's income is. I don't, care a bit!'

My step-father slightly smiled, then slightly sighed. "I may tell Mr. Harnet, then, that you entertain his proposal?" "Yes. I love him," I'said simply.

Some one rapped ut the door the doer opened. "Mr. Harnet," annotmced the whiteaproned, soft-voiced parlor maid and Ned came in. (lis sun-browned face had a ruddier tinge than usual, ho was evidently embarrassed, but even In his embarrassment there was a sort |f boyish frankness and dignity he was humorously ronHcious of being ill-at-ease, and ho humorously appreciated the odd experience. lie nodded and smiled at me as he shook hands, then he turned with an eager, searching glance toward my stepfather. "I have been having a serious little talk with Mabel." my step-father

In Ills slow, mild tone. Nothing ever made him hasten in his speech. "A very serious r.itle talk."

Ned looked toward me. I could not understand tho glance he looked as though ho wished that I would go. "I havo laid your proposal before her."

Again Ned glanced quickly in my direction he was silent my step-father slowly continued: "And she is inclined to entertain

"Sho accepts me?''" "She admits that she is very much In love with you."

I did not seo Ned's face, ray eyes were fixed upon the brown roses on tho carpet but I heard the joyous little exola mation with which tho news was re ceived. "Where Is she?" asked Ned, after a moment's pause. "Mabel, my love, comohere," said my step-father In his smoothest tone. Ho took my hand botween his own and led me toward Ned, who stood perfectly still and mado no movement to meet me. lie took Ned's hand, too ho put our hands togotlier. I looked up—I looked Into Ned's eyes, and ho looked back into minej with a littlo ory I drew my hand away and ho quietly released it. 1 romember still the kind, regretful look ho gavo me. "Mr. Dale." ho said, iu his frank clear voice, "wo havo made a mistake. Perhaps tho mistake was mino—but I think it was yours. I lovo Mabel. Mab and I are tho lfl?star.d firmest of friends but my love is. Mabel's—I thought you understood." "You aro speaking of Mabel Campion?" "Yes.

FUN FOR THE GIRLS.

One ol 'I lit'in llcour«e« About M»l« Purchaser* ot Safety l'tni. "Well. I never!" This exclamation fell from tho lips of a young and inexperienced salesgirl in a large dry gooda store. The cause had been the approach of a tall, well-dressed gentleman, who, in low tone of voice and with a perceptible blush, asked for a boxof safety pins. "To think," continued the girl, "that a woman would be mean enough to send her husband to buy safety pins for the babv!" "ltabv, nonsense!" cried nil older girl at the same conn tor. "You're green enough to make a salad of. Why, thrft man bought those safety pius for his own use. Men use them in mauy waya I'irst they put one through tho top of their trousers and catch the band of their tlannels to hold them up snugly— sometimes one on each side. Then men with sloping shoulders put safety pins through their suspenders so as to hold them from slipping off.* Other men. who do a great deal of writing, use a small safety pin to hold tho cuffs of their shirt-sleeves from falling over their hands. They simply make a tuck above the elbow and set the safety there. Some men. too, use safety pins to hold their sixdcs up. My mother keeps a boarding-bouse, and there isn't a man among the boarders who doesn't have .safety pins lying about his room. If a button comes off and he's in a hurry, a safety pin holds things to

find

rether for the time being, if that man been married and buying for the baby he wouldn't have blushed he would have been used to women but lie's an edd bachelor, and that's the reason he irot red in the face."

The young and inexperienced salesgirl was speechless she could only look her admiration of such wisdom find her thanks for having it impartc 1 unto her. --N. Y. World.
