If you can't say something
good about your town, shut up.
The hole you came in is just as
big going out.
The democratic state executive
committee has ordered a pri-
mary election for May 2nd, sole-
ly for the nomination of dele-
gates at large to the national
democratic convention at Denver.
This is all right from the politi-
cians' standpoint, but God pity
the people.
The Democrat for a long time
has been laboring under the im-
pression that the city of Belton
should operate a light and power
jplant ia conjunction with the
■water works system. The city
is sadly in need of street lights,
which fact will not be disputed.
The water works owned by the
city and operated by the school
board has proven so wonderful
a'success it would warrant the
experiment — if experiment
with a light plant. While the;
company operating the present
light plant is perhaps giving as
good service as conditions will
warrant, yet improvements and
extensions seem unlikely. No
tjae
therefore the citj c<iuncil w<>uld
oe warranted in taking the light
problem up for consideration.
A western woman says that
her husband has come home
seventy-eight times late at night
and gave a different excuse each
time. We havn't the address
of that gentleman or we would
send it to Bob Gresham, of the
Temple Mirror.—Bell County
ty Democrat.
You know, WoodalJ, that the
Book of Books has something to
say like this: "Let him that is
without sin cast the first stone."
—Temple Mirror.
Just our luck. Whenever, in
the goodness of our heart, we
attempt to go to the assistance
of a brother in trouble our mo-
tives are impugned and our feel-
ings trampled in the dust. You
know full well, Bob, we have no
stones to throw, and if we had
we wouldn't do so for fear of
striking some neighbor's "glass
house." We will try once more
the role of "benefactor." We
have just secured the address of
a publishing house that prints
a book entitled "28 Thousand
Excuses" of special interest to
"belated" married men. Write
"Ezra A. Cook," Chicago, Texas.
The Temple Mirror offers the
following recipe for building
ft city for the consideration of
the people of its town, which
is well worth the attention of
citizens of Belton:
Grit
Vim
Push'
Snap
Energy
Schools
Morality
Churches
Harmony
Cordiality
Advertising
Talk about it
Speak well of it
Healthy location
Improve property
Help to improve it
Advertise in it* papers
Good country tributary
Elect good men to office
Patronise its Merchant*
Honeat competition in prioes
Fire all crooka, loafers, dead
' ipa, boosters, chronic
DONT GENERALIZE
THE disposition to draw a a*"*"" conclusion from on* or
two Instances thsit favor It Is an almost universal fault.
It warps the Judgment, disturbs ths feelings, and Infltt'
snees everything wo do.
A man wroto mo a Isttsr complaining of hard-hsartsd
omploysrs, and vsntlng his wrath on all smploysrs In ono
broath. Ho gave an Instanos of a stsnographsr who, oftar
working over a ysar without missing a day, was homo for
two days, and on rsturnlng found hor position psrmansntly
ftllsd by another. Tho managsr said that as har health wao
uncertain thoy fslt thsy must msks othsr arrangsmsnts.
No one dsnlss that such an act was a breach of ths laws
Of buslnsss ethics. But ths Important thing to know la that It
Is not a typical cass. It affords no foundation whatever for a
criticism against smploysrs as a class. Numsrous Instances
might bo cltsd whsre employers havs paid sslarlss for months
and evsn ysara to an unfortunats and unprofitable employs.
BmplOysrs havs put thsmsslvss to all sorts of Inoonvsnlsnt
shifts to hold positions opsn for workers who wsrs tempo-
rarlly unable to psrform thslr duties. All that can bo said of
tho Instance In question Is that H was ths way one man did
It, and ths sxplsnstlon for ths act might readily be found In
tho Individual's oharactsr. But 1st us be fair. Lot ua not
generalise tod muoh. Class hart red Is largsly made up of faieo
generalisations.
(CoprrWtt, 1M>, kr JoMpH R. Bewlm.)
"Laugh and the world laughs
with you, sigh and you sigh
alone." Put up your hammer
and get a "push-cart"—there's
more fun in it.
Not being personally acquaint-
ed with the editor of the Flor-
ence Vidette, we don't know
what number of hat he wears,
but the following paragraphs in-
dicate a pretty good newspaper
head:
"The Vidette is anti Bailey
and anti anti Bailey. If you
can figure out what that "means
you can tell where we stand on
this great issue."
"The people of this country
are growing sick and tired of
having the newspapers they pay
for, eternally filled with the un-
called for anti Baileyism and
Baileyism. They would prefer
something at least rational."
A Runaway.
On last Friday morning early
when Joe Wiles was coming from
■ -horse fcjfrtstf a cbTv'ertf fTrid as *Ee
arose he dashed down Main
street to about opposite the home
of Mr. Duckworth. Mr. Wiles
could not hold him but stayed in
the buggy until the horse
stopped suddenly throwing Mr.
Wiles out bruising his hip and
shoulder considerably. In the
runaway both shafts of the buggy
were broken.
NOTICE
I have purchased the Hatley
Horse and Jack and will stand
them at my home in North Bel-
ton (better known as the Billie
Blair place). Will be glad to
have your patranage.

appearance of Sherlock

but a letter since that
time from the publishers
states that these stories

some time yet. The Dem-

RECIPE FOR RHEUMATISM.
Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet Re
markable Home Mixture.
There is so much Rheumatism
here in our neighborhood now
that the following advice by an
eminent authority, who writes
for readers of a large Eastern
daily paper will be highly appre-
ciated by those who suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy
one half ounce Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one ounce Compound
Kargon, three ounces Compound
Syrup Sarsparilla. Shake these
well in a bottle and take in tea-
spoonful doses after each meal
and at bedtime; also drink plenty
of good water.
It is claimed that there are few
victims of this dread and tortuous
disease who will fail to find ready
relief in this simple home-made
mixture, and in most cases a per-
manent cure is the result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the elima-
tive tissues of the Kidneys, so
that they can filter and strain
from the blood and system the
poisons, acids and waste matter,
which cause not only rheumatism
but numerous other diseases.
Every man or woman here who
feels that their kidneys are not
healthy and active, or who suffers
from any urinary trouble what-
ever. should not hesitate to make
up this mixture, as it is certain
to do much good, and save you
from much misery and suffering
after while.
Our home druggists say they
will either supplythe ingredients
or mix the prescription ready to
take If our readers ask them.
wTIFappear in the Demo-
crat in its issue of April
and. This is a most love-
ly story, especially inter-
esting to the boys and
girls, and older people
too. Don't miss the be-
ginning, as it will hold
your attention from the
first chapter to the last
line. Watch the next is-
sue of the Democrat for
the first chapter.

VERY QUEER PEWS.
Amwelng Oddltlas of Some Anelent
KnglUh Churches.
Some pews in the fine old church
at Malpas, Cheshire; possess a most
amusing peculiarity. Kach one con-
sists of several seats, which are real-
ly, though not apparently, detach-
ed, and they look easy and com-
fortable. In this case appearances
are deceitful, for should one occu-
pant of any one 6eat lean forward
while "nidnid nodding" over he
goes on the floor. The seat is so
constructed as to easily tip oyer
when any weight is placed on it3
outer or front edge and was so de-
signed to prevent people from going
to sleep in church.
We still find in a few of our an-
cient churches the high pews, luxu-
rious cushions and curious fittings
of former days.
In the good old times, when the
squire was lord of all he surveyed
in the village, his pew in the parish
church was often a kind of sitting
room. One such pew occupies the
whole of the south transept of the
diminutive church at Gatton, in
Surrey. It has a fireplace, a low
seat which extends around two sides
of the room and blue tapestry dec
oration. Above it is another floor,
on which nre three or four ordinary
pews for the use of the squire's
servants, and from it a covered way
leads to Gatton Hall, some few
yards away. There may be some
truth in the story that a former
squire used to enjoy a pipe by the
fireplace during the 6ernion and
that if he became weary he would
go out through the private door for
a short stroll in the churchyard.
A similar pew exists in a church
at Colwich, Staffordshire. It has a
staircase leading to a private door,
and it is said that the postman
came this way to convey letters and
that the servant brought in cake
and wino for consumption during
the service.
The royal pew of St. George's
chapel, Windsor, is peculiar, because
it is the largest of its kind in Eng-
land and on account of its being sit-
uated above the choir, down upon
which the queen can see the service
from a fine oriel window.
In little Benjamin church, Nor-
folk, ia a pew for strangers and wed-
ding parties. It was constructed by
a snepherd and bears a cheerful,
suggestive piece of ornamentation
in the shape of the carving of a
skeleton, with the following inscrip-
tion :
For couples Joined in wedlock; and my
Friend
That stranger Is; This seat X did intends.
But built at tha cost and charge of Ste-
phen Crlsbee,
All you tkat doe this Place pass by.
As you are now, even io was I,
And as I am soe shall you bee.
Anno Domini 1640.
A game of whist played in a pew
comment, yet it seems that the
square pews at Trowbridge were
used for this purpose at the time
the "poet" Crabbe was droning
away in the pulpit.
Other interesting old pews have
names and occasionally coats of
arms painted on them thus:
" 'The Rectory Pew/ Tho
Churching Pew* and, best of all,
The Hall Dog's Pew.'"
Tennyson's Humor.
There was a playful humor in
Lord Tennyson that rarely showed
itself unless the poet was within the
familiar circle of bis friends. John
Blackwood, a mercber of the famous
firm of publishers, gave an amusing
instance of this in ono of his let-
ters:
The Rev. James White, rector of
a neighboring parish, and Tenny-
son were chainng each other, as
their custom was, concerning the
merits of their respective houses.
"I believe part of Bonchurch be-
longs to you, remarked the poet.
"Tho whole of it," said White.
"You mean," retorted Tennyson,
"the hole you live in."
And the Rev. James White was
silenced.
The Bitter Truth.
Diogenes slowly entered the pawn-
shop and placed his lantern on the
counter.
"What can I get for this?" he
asked/
The pawnbroker picked up the
lantern and examined it curiously.
"Rather antique pattern," he
commented. "What do you consid-
er it worth ?"
Diogenes bowed his head, the hu-
miliation of the centuries upon him.
"Nothing," he bitterly admitted;
"nothing at all."—Bohemian Maga-
zine.

The Art of Life.
How few of ns there are who
make our lives into anything! Wo
accept our limitations, we drift with
them, while we indignantly assert
the freedom of the will. The best
sermon in the world is to hear of
ono who has struggled with life,
bent or trained it to his will, pluck-
ed or rejected its fruit, but all upon
some principle. It matters little
what we do; it matters enormously
how wo do it.—Cornhill Magazine.

Absence of Mini.
Many amusing anecdotes are told of
Bishop Buroefs absence of mind, but
few perhaps are more striking and
have been less repeated than the fol-
lowing, which Lord Orford used to re-
late:
Burnet was once dining with the
Duchess of Marlborough after the
great duke's disgrace. In the course of
conversation, speaking of Marlbor-
ough's great qualities, great services
and great fall, Burnet compared the
duke with Belisarlus, the great Ro-
man.
"But how In reason," exclaimed the
duchess, "could so great a general be
abandoned?"
"Ah, my lady, do you know what a
cursed brimstono of a wife he had?"
The hearers, to the good Burnet's
surprise, were confused and dumb
struck with the force of the parallel he
discovered In the cases of the Roman
and the Englishman—St. James' Ga-
zette.
The Count Too Touching.
In the long corridor of an uptown ho-
tel they tell of a certain foreigner who
until recently held court there of even-
ings. At last he disappeared,, and then
each of the men who hud nightly been
entertained by his flow of anecdote
and his abundance of witty stories con-
fessed that he had lent the count
various sums, ranging from $100 up.
The total seemed so formidable that a
mr einent was set on foot to bring the
defaulter back, bis whereabouts hav-
ing been ascertained. But funds were
needed for the purpose. One of the
big men of Wall street who was a
creditor on the count's books to the ex-
tent of $500 was approached for a suL>-,j
scrlptlou. **'
"Not on your life!" said he. "I dm-, t
want him back. He'll borrow 'p.ore
money from me If he gets iu town. But
I'll subscribe $25 toward a fund to
send him back to France If he'll agree
to sail from Boston."—New York Globe
