All the politicians promise to re duce taxes, hut none of thorn over do. Girls always dress sensibly, pro vided they attract the attention of the men. 1 Oil has not helped the republican political machine toward smooth run ning. Illinois reports a goat tliot eats dynamite. They had better treat hini gently. Kurope may bo seeing red, as an exchange suggests, but it is acting yellow. Most of us attend the school of ex perience hut none of us ever get di plomas. A man likes to give advice for tho same reason that a woman likes to give medicine. Still, girls don't jump at marriage more eagerly, during I^eap Year than at other times . , As a rule, the man who leads, a double life lasts just about half as long as otherwise. The cost of living would not be so high if it did not cost so much to keep up appearances. Maybe some of the senators are sore because they did not get their share of the oil graft. It is a poor town indeed that is not clamoring for more parking space and more washerwomen. Hope and hustle make a wonderful combination, says an exchange, when they form a partnership. It is getting so now that the mere fact that a man lives in Washington puts him under suspicion. If the nations could disarm suspic ion it would be easier for the nations themselves to disarm. Only i two women in this country vliot their husbands last week, as re ported by the press dispatches. Tho legislature is to be commended quite a* much for the things it does not do as for the things it does. You will xa\'e yourself a lot of worry if you will not try to keep up with what 'he legislature is doing. Along about this time of year, in the good old times, mother used to t>cgin to think about sassafras tea. A Harrishurg, 1'a., man had five wives. And he couldn't have been more unlucky if he had had thirteen. A good baseball player gets a big ger salary than a member of congress .?nd he is worth more to the country.

The hody of Oscar Huile, a young white man, a resident of the Lancas ter mill villas, wan found by Ixzard I Vay, colored, about 7 o'clock Thurs day morning, lodged against the tim* hers of the footbridge over Hear Crook that connects with the section recently built situated between the tracks of the Southern and L. &. O. Railway. The finding of the body was at once reported to the mill authorities and Messrs, Bo van Kunderburk and L. (}. Dobson took a force of men to the scene and recovered the remains, which were taken to the hottie of Mr. and Mrs. John Haile in Brooklyn to await the arrival of Coroner Caskey. The icoroner and th? sheriff reached the house about 9:80 and at once im paj^Ued a jury of inquest. Several witnesses were examined. Dr. I'oovey viewed the body and said that there was water in the lungs but no evi dence of foul play. The appearance of the body indicated that it had been in the water for Home time, Hi.s hat was found at the creek Wednesday. The deceased was last seen alive late Sunday evening at the home of his brother-in-law, Miles Wheeler, who lives on the Yancey Williams' place just beyond Hear Crock.
