It might he a good reminder to us in estimating what progress we have made in civilization in America to recur to some of the first laws enacted by our Puritan ancestry. So wo copy a few to show the kind of criminal code they thought should govern fhe land of tho ree.

There are flying reports afloat in the country as io the peace and harmony prevailing in Union township among souio of our democratic brethren all on account of some boy not getting all of tho spoils. There seems to be too much of big us and little you in it for a party to do good work. The principals of the democratic party are said to be founded on justice to all and malice to none. The democratic party said in its platform it was in favor of reducing our heavy taxes and talked about economy, reform. The party has controlling power to-day. If she does not take somo steps to lighten the burdens of a tax ridden people and show a disposition to practice what it teaches and preaches we, as a party, cannot expect any reward from the people at the ballot box nextNovember. The public is getting to be quite observant of our county affairs and they remember what they were promised and if they don't get it they sometimes retaliate on their own party at the ballot box. Let's have peace and harmony and victory is our.

The Razor .Strop.
A great mniiy men who find that their razors cannot be kept in order by a common leather strop buy the sort of strop used by barbers, imagining that with this the razor can be kept in perfect condition. They are generally greatly disappointed to find that their razors cut no better than before. Tho fault is not with the razor nor with tho strop, but in their not knowing how to use a barber's strop. To sharpen a razor with a barber's strop requires not only considerable strength but also a peculiar swing of the wrist. Unless this be learned the more you strop a razor the less it will cut

"Dc tell ma where Jerry Simpson is!" exclaimed the newcomer "I have heard so much about him." One of the ladies pointed out the alliance Kansan in the arena beneath. "Oli, no, that isn't Jerry Simpson," protested the loud young lady confidently. "1 would know him because I have seen his pictures." "And I have known Mr. Simpson for some time myself," replied the lady. "Well, he docs not seem to be such a bad-looking man after all," the vociferous young lady commented after a careful scrutiny. "1 wonder if he brought his wife with him?" "I believe she is in the city," the quiet lady asserted. "I would like to see her too. They do say she isn't so very awful. How do you suppose she likes all the things, the papers say about him?" And the fashionable maiden rattled away several conjectures in regard to Mrs. Simpson. "She doesn't rnind it," responded the elder lady. "Do you know Mrs. Simpson, ton?" inquired the sightseer. "Very well," 10marked the other, serenely. "I am Jiirs. Simpson."

CARING FOR PEARLS.
Every one who knows the fragile nature of pearls was astonished at the freshness tuid purity of color of those exceedingly old jewels, ar.d Count Egmont explained the mystery by imparting the family rule concerning their care, which was simply to inclose a piece of t!:e root oi' the ash tree iu I1 a box which held the jewels.

SHIPS A HUNDRED YEARS OLD.
The Juno of Ceaumar!* Waa Ono Hun. 1 red and Six Years Old When Wrecked. From the table in the last board of trade reports respecting casualties to sliips, which shows tiu» ages of vessels, it is surprising to find how very ancient many of the craft still doing service really are. Thirty-nine sailing vessels are between fifty and sixty years old, eighteen aro between sixty and seventy years, thirty aro between seventy and one hundred, and six are actually above a century old. While these numbers represent only a very small proportion of such ancient mariners still "sailing the wintry seas," it must not be thought they refer only to barges or Waft engaged in river or inland navigation.
The Juno of lieaumaris, built one hundred and six years ago, met with her mishap while on a coasting voyage, and the Endeavor, Plymouth, a still older craft, in seeking to act up to her name came to grief while on a voyage from Dunkirk. What is more surprising still, the same casualty list contains the names of two steamships, one above eighty years and the other above ninety years old!
On consideration, however, it is obvious that these vessels must have originally been built as sailing vessels, as the periods named carry us much farther back Jhar. the date at which the Sirius made her famous voyage across the Atlantic. With regard to the ancient sailing vessels, too, they must have little or nothing of the original structure left. As long as there is one single plank, however, the vessel stains her identity. oavapes nmi many sources 01 1000 supply where civilized people would starve.

A Simple Preservative to Give Stones a Bright Appearance. One of the most beautiful and costly sets of pearl jewels ever made was an heirloom in the Egmont family, of Hoi- this weed at the bedside of asickdaughland,says a writer in Kate Field's Wash-' ter, Mrs. Moreland. ington. During the war which led to tho establishment of the Dutch republic Count Egmont.of that time, pawned the jewels to the Venetian government for a large sum of money, which was used to further the efforts of tho liberal party. Afterward the pearls were redeemed, and when a later Count Egmont married the daughter of the duke of Richelieu this magnificent, treasure was bestowed upon the bride, who frequently., displayed its splendor at the court of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette.
