There may he nothing in such an objection, but it would, perhaps, be as well to examine carefully. There will, no doubt, be a strong effort made to build a court house this year, and there is a fair proejpect that it will succeed. If the oommissleners do undertake the task they should make*the most of their predecessors' experience. Architects whose paat conduct warrants suspicion should be kept at a distance. If kept away from the board they can do no harm, but if they compete and defeat awaits them, as it certainly will, then the fun will commence, and happy, indeed, will be the man who escapes their numerous attacks.

CHANGE.

It is said that time works changes in all things. The length of time occupied in making a change varies with the magnitude of the work. Nearly two years ago the Legislature abolished the criminal circuit court in this county, and transferred ita business to the circuit court. LaBt month the circuit court superceded the criminal court, and this month the air 1H filled with other rumors to the effect there is to be another change as soon as tLe Legislature meets. The story goes that a distinguished statesman of Sullivan, the force of whose language in the now famous judicial convention was noted for its inelegance rather than force and wisdom, has prepared a little bill with which he is going to cut this circuit in two and leave Vigo out in the cold, He intends to form a circuit of Sullivan and Greene, suitable companions, and leave this county a circuit by itself. In this manner Judge Buff will be enabled to hold court in Sullivau and Ureene, so eays the Sullivan statesman, while Governor Poiter can appoint a bead to the court hore. This is tho most generous thing we ever heard of in a political party. JustTthlnk of it, a Democratic Legislature forming two judicial circuits from one in such a manner that a Republican will bo retained in office and another Republican appointed to the vacancy existing it* the new circuit. And that such a scheme should originate in the brain of a Sullivan county democrat is the most wonderful portion of the story. Truly, political parties are becoming generous toward each other, and the millenium muatba nearq£ hand. Taken |$?^at»d tnlght be taken down by the marines, but to old sailors on the ocean of politics it has. too fishy a look to be ccepted as current coin.

TERRE HAUTE, IND., SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 30, 1882.

Our Breakfast Table.

The men of the house were discussing warmly a topic introduced by the Professor. He had produced a scrap clipped from the Evening Gazette, dated a year ago. It waa an editorial which considered the action of a Judge in taking the evidence of the Sprague divorce case in private, to prevent Jhe corrupting effect of its publication upon the young throughout the land. It said very correctly •'The good sense of the better part

of the

reading public will prompt gratitude, but

lane clasH, much larger than can be realized, will sin:ply be disttppolnted that tbeir curiosity la not to be fully satisfied. Papers are called sensational and uaflt for perusal which publish such prurient details, but the fact remains chat these journals are the

last:

"He is right, therefore, in hi* determination to suppress as far as possible all that the public should know. It is not only the young, however, who are detcrioated by such affitlra the Beecher-TiJtou, trial which opened such a flood-gate of filth upon our country. It is certain that no one can handle soot without tweoming black, and the result must be a general lowering of the mora'sof the people. The effect may not be immediately visible perhaps none can directly trace them bitckfto the cause, but the fact has always been admitted that familiarity with vice diminishes the horror of the purest minded when regarding it. The well known lines of Pope are no less true to-day than when written."

The Major said: "That is all very true, but it ia not unusual for editorial and loeal columns to contradict each other. If you are alluding to this Clutter case, I feel that the general public isslandered by the supposition that it is hungry for such news. According to the reporters, their readers should be drawn with a pair of asses' ears and ferrets' eyes, and

The Professor interrupted with: "A master passion lathe love of news, Not music so commands, nor so tho muse Give poets claret, they grow idle soon Feed the musician and beVout of tune But the sick mind of this disease possessed Flies from all cure and sickens when at rest." Derby said: "Crabbe's awkward verse doesn't state the cause of tho disease. An editor may gravely advise his readers not to read the other side of his paper—which reminds me of. a well-known advertising dodge—and then publish a criminal record with the excuse that while grocers must keep soap because their customers want it, the paper must give all news because it is wanted.

Why, even the spectacle of a ahrewd interpreter of your laws flourishing a pistol with ferocious intent ia funny to yon."

The flourishing is funny, Mac," said Jack. "We don't laugh at the prospect of a deadly quarrel. It is something else that amuses us. I don't laugh at Tom Harper either. I think that he was justifiably mad, but be waa too mad to see that getting mad did more harm than good. As good a lawyer as be should have seen that he could make a rong point by appeaUng to the love of fair play common to alt, and requesting that the public should treat him aa they did other*.

it wants to say whenever it feels like it, even if itdon't like fighting. If any one has aright to flay an enemy it is Mr. Ball. Some of these angry people to-day have abused him shamefully. You talk of wives and families that are injured today. How was it when Democratic sheet opened on him—had he none to be humiliated or incensed Keep the Ball rolling!" "You are not advocating running a paper for personal revenges "No, I am not, for it wouldn't pay. The editor who amuses himself by writing down anyone from personal pique wastes his time. His motive is too apparent and damages no one but himself, and his victim will be wise to laugh at at each point%d squib, admireits ingenuity—and wait. I can give you examples: You might go back to John Wilkes, the best abused man in England in his day—and probably the worst. His enemies' attacks made him the people's hero. Yeu can take political attacks nowadays. If you confine them to whispers and inuendoes they damage. If you openly charge fraud and villainy you fail. You can take this case of to-day. Every man who is attacked finds who his friends are. I don't believe you can go to any man's wife and repeat such a charge without making her your enemy for your pains. Ah, there's your true friend—a friend to you right or wrong. A friend, when yon are wrong, and need one most. There waa one Christ, who was the friend of sinners, the Saviour of the lost and not of the saved. There is such a friend sometimes—how we admire the woman (or the man) who can be that friend. She says, 'While the crojvd attacks him, I will stand by him but if the \vhole world is bis friend, and I have none, dare to leave him if he is not true to me.'"

The door opened, and a voice said: "See here! Don't you know breakfast is waiting, while you talk, talk! What are you talking about? Won't tell? Well, as Mr. McEwan would say 'There's a chiel amang ye takin' notes, and faith he'll prent tbem'—so, come!" 'What a blessing that we do not have to celebrate from Christmas to Twelfth Night, as our forefathers and English cousins did," said the Major. "The

THE BETTER WORLD.

CHURCHES, PASTOR AND PEOPLE

Rev. Madison C. teters, at Greenwood Presbyterian Church, will have for his theme to-morrow morning: "How to Hear Sermons." In the evening the pastor will begin a series of twenty-five lectures to young men. Subject of first lecture, "Our Greatest Danger."

Services to-narrow at St. Stephens as usual. At the Christian church to-morrow pastor, Rev. H. O. Breeden will preach. Morning subject, "The Star of Bethlehem evening, "Elijahon Mt. Horeb."

Religion nowadays is largely administered on the European plan. You take what you please and leave the rest. It is apt to be the case, however, that what you take is very small. in proportion to what you leave. Meu are so unselfish.

We wonder how many church-goers could echo the following remark mado by a gentleman in regardto his church a few days since: "I'll tell you^ what our church needs to make it a success: anew choir, anew organ and anew man to play on it, a new minister, a new church and anew congregation."

Rev. E. E. Hale says be is "tired of hearing people say that they prefer to worship God in the fields iu the Summer, by the side of some babbling brook, fahat if they do We are not permitted to live for our own pleasure, but for the glory of God and the good of the world. United worship in the sanctuary makes the world better. Therefore we have no choice in the matter. It is our duty to attend the house of God regularly."

ABOUT WOMEN.

A Charleston, S. C., woman rejoices in the possession of a thousand dollar set of false teeth.

Mrs. Ray, the first woman 'vbo went to Leadville, dug in the mines, scoured the plains as a. scout, took in washing, and now has a fortune of f1,000,000.

A made-up-young old English lady says that ears readily show sign of age. Her own bloodless white ones ars covered with tinted false ones. It has ranpflntlv, anorirflRtad itaalf to. aw, that, the faces of some American ladies might be put upon the ears instead of the deathlike white flour with which they are frequently so liberal sprinkled.

The richest young and unmarried woman on the Pacific coast is Miss Jennie Flood, who is pretty and very pious. She is the happy owner of |2,500,000 in United States 4 per cents., a present from her father. The richest prospective heiress in California is Miss Hattie Crocker, who is charming and charitable. Neither of these young ladios seems inclined to marry.

Experience has taught a St. Louis proprietor that woman as a barber is not an unqualified success. He says the chances are she'll get stuck on some fellow, or ene will get mashed on her, and that settles the whole business. And when it gete that way he'll sit aronnd for half a day with half a dozen empty chairs in sight rather than to let any one but her shave him and she, if she's spooney on him, will be the other half day getting aWay with a beard that you can't see and waxing a moutacbe that's just started. A girl is all right in her place, but her place ain't in a barber shop, in the opinion of this St. Louis barber.

Our christian maidens, says an English paper are as good and lovely as ever, but unfortunately not quite as rich as the Hebrew maidens, who have beauty and money other things being equal, the taste of the men decidedly leans in favor of the house of Abraham, with its exquisitely cut ^features and flselymolded figures. The marriages invariably turn out happily. On the other band, a Hebrew heiress has ne objection to the bondage of the Philistines, of late and, to do tbem justice, Hebrew fathers are not all heartless. We are at length absorbing the "stranger" whose distinction from ourselves is essentially one of racend not of creed, and who are gradually exchanging the tribal for ibe religious motto.

HOW TO PRESERVE AND INCREASE IT.

Tae Hygienics of th# Toilet —Ptvptr Care o/ (he Hair—Means of Pnnnoting its Luxuriant Growth.

The Woman's Hour has commenced tho publication of a series of papers which will speak of preserving aud increasing the boauties of face and form by natural means. They will treat not so much of the arts as of the hygienics of the toilets. Beauty is an endowment to be prixed greatly and to be made the most of. The desire to be beautiful is not an ignoble desire, and whenever the charms with which one has been gifted by nature can bo heightened by uatural means it should be done. The results of artificial means never give the same pleasure to tlmir possessor that comes from tho knowledge that her charms are her own. Moreover, they always carry with them some ntauifeat evidence of their artificiality, and who cares to look at or admire a complexion taken out of a box? Aud besides, artificial aids to the toilet will in tiuio destroy the natural charms it was intended they should supplemout, aud leave ber who has onee

employed

rowth of new hair, prevent baldness increasing, and cause tho hair that is beginning to have a dull, dead look to begin to grow and appear vital and glossy. Those results will not invariably follow, as the cause sf the falling off and the deadening of the hair may not bo in tho scalp alono. But whenever it is, the use of this wash will be followed by beneficial results. It leaves the hair, as thorpigh cleansing of the scalp always dois, rather dry. as all the oil is washed off tho hair and tho oil cells will not roplenish the stock for several days. But vigorous brushing will do much to overcome this difficulty, without a great deal of this it is lmnossibleto possess a beautiful head of hair. Tho question is often asked whether a wire or a bristle brush is better. It dopends almost entirely upon the hair and the scalp. If the hair is thin and the scalp tender and irritable it will be almost impossible to use the wire brush. But if the hair is thick and heavy and the scalp lsh in its action, the bristle rather slu, brush will brush at all.

them to any ex

tent lu time entirely dependent upon them. It is possible, however, to take such care of oue's daily doings and to make such use of whatever guts nature has bestowed that thero will be no need of artificial aids. It is to showiug how this can bo done, how proper care of the hair, Ihe complexion, the bands, the feet, the form, all parts of the body, can overcome natural deficiencies, inorsaso and preserve natural charms.

We begin this week with the proper care of the hair. Washington Allston once said that he thought tuo most beautiful thing in nature to be woman's hair. A woman can possess no other physical charm greater than ahead of long, thick, soft hair. It does not matter what color It may be— any is beautiful if the hair itself is fine, sott, thick and long. And this l» an endowment which it is in the power of most women to possess, if they ueslie it. The uatnrul endowment may be moro or less, for beautiful heads ol hair go by heredity, but it is possible for almost any one, with patience and caro, to induce a luxuriant ih nd to refine and softon stiff, coarse locks. Hair is usually considered an index of vitality, and it will very frequently be found that the vigorous

constitution,

and the

abundant nervous forco are accompanied bv rapidly growing locks, thick and heavy.

But

this

not always true. The

first requisite for a desirable chevelureis a clean, healthy scalp. It must be kept free from dust and all ulatlons. Wlthj&m&^'ncws. A wash made by dissolving an ounce of salts of tartar in a quart of soft water is one of the best cleansers. Apply it to the scalp until that part of the hair next the scalp is quite wet, rub the scalp hard with the fingers and wash both hair and »c*lP thoroughly in

ft water. If troubled

with dandruff this process, repeated every week or two, will keep the scalp perfectly clean. It has vigonzing qualities also that make it a valuablo tollot accessory, as its use, if porservered in for several months, will frequently start a

This should be applied to the scalp, not the hair, and tb« brush sbottId be used thoroughly

after

the application.

There is exctlifrlwwever, for oiling the hair just tttfof1# taking a sea bath, as oil protects the hair from
