The destruction with tlatne was only one of the minor results of the destruction with suggestion that has been going on. The ono was the coiicivto act. resnhant from the ab stract agitation.

In the most prosperous period of our history , wo have become the most bitter nnd the most destructive.

Eiirs that won't hear nn alarm clock , can't bo expected to hear n flro wills- tlo. Klros hnvo become so discouraged In going ngnhiHt the Norfolk depart ment , tlmt they have almost quit try- Ing. There la ono way of making n girl confess that she has had proposals. A Norfolk nmn did It yesterday. "How tlmo Hies , " ho declared. "Why , I can remember wlien you wore n Httlo bit of n girl nnd I held you on my lap. Now you nro of marriageable age old enough to say yes If you had n chance. " "Yes , nml-I've Iinil chances , too , " she retorted , her cheeks Hushed. "But t snld 'No. ' " People who nro nlwnys talking nnd thinking about the cost of trlvlnl things , lose the best part of life. The man who taps n slot machine to get the nlcklos , Is "looking niter the Httlo things , " ns ho goes along. Two Norfolk families , counting njl the children , made n pretty fair mull once at n matinee in Norfolk the other afternoon. A man walked Into n Norfolk res taurant Sunday morning and ate ev erything on the bill of faro. Then he spent a good round sum of change for cigars. Monday morning he re turned. "How much do coffee and eggs cost ? " he asked. He was told. Then , hesitating , "How much are cakes and caffeet" The price was given. "Well , give' me a plate of those beans. " What had he done between Sunday and Monday mornings ? "The sweetest story ever told" in Norfolk would be the story that sugar was again to be made in this city. NOAV we know why no effort Is beln , made to get those chicken thieves. It would cost the county money to pros ecute and punish them. If a penny saved Is a penny earned some law courts are earning money fast by savin ? their counties the ex pense of punishing criminals. What has become of the old-fajh- loned maa woo , the morning after a snow storm , caught the school teach er , and washed her face in the snow ? The- present police force has saved Norfolk all colors of coin If you be- Ueve that punishing criminals la tco expensive a luxury to be. indulged in by the county.

Kvory woman tnkcs ns much tlmo In getting off n Htrct cnr ns If she thought her destination Was as far as the car expected to go. Some frlendfihlps from the start are IIH uncertain na that existing between ono woman who owns a cat , nnd nn- other who owns n bird. Trenchers and lawyers nro great on quoting poetry. ' No ono prepares for n storm until the storm arrives. Most of ns object to having every thing wo do blnmed on us. If you mnko llgures before election people will know wlmt n bad guesser you are. When some people got Into trouble they enlist a lot of people to help them out When fnrmors meet ench other on the road , they nro as npt to visit too long ns town women. No child Is really being raised a pot unless Its mother gives it a hammer and n looking glass to play with at the same tlmo. As a rule , soldiers are fond of mu sic , but none of them care for war songs. A common plug has some advant ages. There nro no flve-cent cigars named for him. When a man has a big bunch of railroad passes , ho takes great prldo In showing them. Our Idea of poor advertising is that obtained by a college sending a glee club on the road. In the estimation of the public a man is richer Just after his death than at any other time. When a man. cannot attract atten tion In any other way , he can always go without a coat in cold weather. A mother is never entirely recon ciled to her son's marriage until she has become attached to his children. What a comfortable world this would be , if people didn't take such delight In making trouble for each other ! If a man follows the family clock i in taking a train , he will find when he goes to the depot that he Is going to morrow , when he really intended to go yesterday. When a man stops and wipes his feet before entering a restaurant , the men lu the restaurant look at each other and smile : They know he Is henpecked , all right If natural gas continues to spread , there will finally be more plumbers in the state than farmers. In future political campaigns , politicians will not inquire , "What will the farmers do ? " but their Inquiry will be. "What will the plumbers do ? " A farmer living six miles west of town says that last night 'he ' heard a commotion in front of his house. Going ingout. . he found a man under an auto mobile. As the farmer came out , the automobile owner said to him : "You'd better get you one of these things. " If you are selfish , and like to set along in the world , you cannot afford to be dishonest.
