Beauty will bay no beef.
A good stomach is tbe best sauce.
Inquire not what is in anothers pot.
Better balf aa egg than an empty
shell.
Better some of the pudding than
none of the pie;
He that dines and leaves lays the
cloth twice.
Make net your sauce till you have
caught your fish.
He fasts enough whose wife scold at
pinner time.
He who depends on anohcr dines ill
and sups worse.
He derserves not the sweet who will
not taste the sour.
He who wuuld ha7e hare for break
fast must hunt over night.
When a m -n cannot have what he
loves he must love what he has.

The latest whim with the girls is
the wearing of the yellow garter, just
one garter, not two, and it Is worn
just above tho left knee. The other
stocking may be fastened by any other
device but the left one is secured by
a yellow silk elastic with a ribbon
rosette of the same, and the correct
way is to wear it night and day for six
months. The origon of this whim is
shrouded but here is the eharm: Any
girl who wears a yellow gartci above
her left knee is sure to be engaged in
less then ix month. The garter
must be given to her by a friend, she
must nut make it or buy it, and it is
said that it never failed but once,and
then it was on the wrong extrem-ity.

are being
Extensive preparations
made, at Red Cloud, for the seventh
Annual Tournament of the State Fire
men's association, to be at that city
on the 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th of
July,1889. It is expected that this
will be the largest gathering of fire
men ever held in Nebraska. The Dem
ocrat knows bv exnerience that the
boys will be generously entertained
during their visit there. It it a fact
that when Bed Cloud holds out its
hand and bids welcome to a body of
guests, it means all that the woid
welcome implies, and in Bed Cloud
it means everything. Hastings Demo
crat. Some rather wicked comments has
been made by politicians, on the news
paper press being freely considered
in connection with post office appoint
ment and minor offices. If the polit
ical class, who so largely live on the
favor of the press, of all partis, will
will agree to pay the thousands and
thousands of dollars of unpaid job
printing bill contracted for parties pur
pose and gain, and guarantee the fu
ture for four years, the press will give
a bill quitance vary gladly. In cities
every line of political announcement
of every nature is at regular rates,
to all party papers, but the country
press, in all states, does the same work
free, and many times to the exclusion
of matter of more interest. The coun
try press also stands, year in and year
out, as a sort of political evangelist,
working for the good of thecause, while
politicians think he does wonders if he
speaks up a half dozen times during
the year. The country press is the
pack mule for burdens of many men
in this matter. They take the load
on and over the dusty read, and while
they may be weary, on they go. If
they should step to aibLle even at a
cactus there is cussing in the air, and
when the end of the joaraey is reached
the mule Is generally invit-.d to care
for himself. The debt of the office
holding political class, to the press of
their faith is one that they can never
folly pay. and one, also, that they gen
erally care little abeat paving. Otka
