No, Hiram, the law doesn'^i stop the gallon-a-month business. It just closes the dispensaries in some other counties of this socalled good State. / There is a boy in the Baptist hospital whose case should excite the sympathy of every childloviug person in the county . His case is exceedingly pathetic. At this time when all hearts should be merry, this poor lad not only suffers physical pain, but has an unusually Lheavy heart too. He is 15 years old and an orphan. His mother was killed by the father, and the father in turn woo - _ - >1 uu V1W11UV.UICU. 1 IIlis| four children were left full orphans, and homeless. The boy in the hospital is the oldest, and has been earning: a living for himself and the three little ones for some time. The other day he was caught in the machinery of the plaining mill where he worked at Ruby and his face was badly injured, the jaw being terribly broken and torn. For four days he was unconscious, or in a semi conscious condition. He was operated on and suffered greatly. Not the least of his suffering has been because - uf lfly Ubiimm mought and worry over his little sisters back borne, fatherless, motherless, with their protecting brother away in the hospital. ^ Quite frequently the editor of a local paper has hard things said about him because he failed to report somebody's visit or something else of which he knew nothing. If a person reports an item of local news and fails to get it in the paper he has a right to enquire why, but even 1 then he should remember that papers are published by human beings and that none are free from errors. If a man knows ] an item of interest and doesn't < report it to his local paper he * has failed to do his duty and the j editor has more room for com- ^ plaint than he. The man < who never reports anything un- = til after it should have been in print, and then as a criticism, has no right to cuss the editor. It is not cussedness on his part * that keeps out the items you ! would like to see in print. If lie had nothing else to do he t( might keep an eye on youvall v -he time and be able to tell the _ i>eople quite a number of things * you wouldn't like to see. Bet- 1 ter report what you are willing for the other fellow to know, lest the editor peep a little too far in trying to keep tab on you. * Bi*i Silk Sale? \ 1 Several hundred yards of 1 silk to be offered at half s price.
