From the Democrat.
Mrs. Alice Stewart, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. B. R. Cowdery, arrived Sun
day evening from the Philippine
Islands, to eat Christmas dinner with
her parents and to make an extended
visit to the United States. . Mrs. Stew
art was 35 days en route home. Mr.
Stewart who holds a government posi
tion in the Philippines, is now in Aus
tralia, where he will remain for several
weeks selling goods which are manu
factured in the Philippines by the
government. It appears that the home
consumption is not great enough to
meet the production and it is neces
sary to find a market for their goods
in other countries.
Farmers, remember the Farmers'
Institute to be held in Humphrey,
January 9 and 10. Some good prizes
are going to be offered for the best ten
ears of corn. At the institute held
two years ago we had an exhibition of
corn but no prizes were given for the
best; last year some nice prizes were
offered and there was a marked im
provement in I he quality of the corn
over the previous year, and while it
will perhaps be more difficult to pick
good corn this year for seed, we ex
pect however, that the exhibit thu
year will be an improvement over that
of last year. Arrangements have been
made to hold the institute in the new
parochial school hall, so there will be
plenty of room for all who may wish
to attend.
The many friends of Mr. and Mrs.
John Boyer sympathize with them in
the loss of their little boy, Charley,
who died Christmas moruing at 7
o'clock. The little fellow had not
been feeling well for the past couple of
weeks, but nothing serious was thought
of until the day before Christmas, it
was deemed necessary to call a physi
cian and he was put in bed. From
that time on he gradually grew worse
although everything that was possible
to do was done to relieve him. The
night before he died he was able to
eat his supper and did not appear to
be seriously ill, but the ravages of
diseased kidneys and liver had such a
hold on the little fellow that it was
apparent that he could not live. The
funeral was held Wednesday afternoon
at 2 o'clock from the M. E. church,
Rev. Carroll preaching the sermon.

A clergyman, discussing

unhappy
"Many a love tragedy is caased by
a hoslx. .d's promise to a dying wife
that he will not marry again. He
thinks when he makes this promise
that it will be easy to keep. Whether
It Is easy or hard to keep, it la a
promise rarely if ever broken. Time
and time again widowers nave sought
me out for advice on this subject.
They are in lore, bnt they promised
their dead wares not to marry again.
Shall they break or keep this promise?
I can only advise them to do as their
conscience dictates. At the same time
I think it is selfish pt dying wives to
extract such promises from their bro
ken hearted husbands. Such prom
ises, by the way, are rarely extracted
by dying husbands from broken heart
ed wives. But. then, when the dead
husband's will is read it Is usually
found that if the widow marries again
the money is all taken from her. So

Of the famous collections of antlers
formed in the seventeenth century only
two or three have escaped the general
fate of conflagrations, sieges and pil
lage. One of these is in Morltzbnrg.
the king of Saxony's historical hunting
castle, near Dresden, while In the cele
brated gun gallery In Dresden Itself
are to be seen in an unrivaled show
the wonderfully inlaid arms used by
the elector. The great banqueting hall
of the castle of Morltzbnrg is one of
the sights with which ho doubt many
a traveled reader has been charmed.
It Is a chamber of noble proportions,
sixty-six feet long by thirty-four wide
and thirty-eight feet high. On Its oth
erwise unadorned white walls hang
seventy-one pairs of magnificent ant
lers, which one may describe as the
most famous of their kind In the world.
Not a single one carries less than
twenty-four tines or Is less than 200
years old, while some are probably
double that age.
A Celebrated Clack.
The art of the clockmaker. has
achieved many remarkable triumphs
during many centuries. Sometimes it
Is a clock wonderful for the complexi
ty of its movements and its busy popu
lation of automatons that attracts our
admiration, like that In the Cathedral
of Strassburg. At other times the im
mense size of the machinery and the
dials excites astonishment. This is the
case with the celebrated clock in the
tower of the Church of St Rombant at
Mechlin. A writer in La Nature thinks
this clock possesses the largest dials
that exist in the world. There are four
of them, one on each side of the great
square tower, and their extreme diam
eter is nearly thirty-seven and one-half
feet The figures 'showing the hours
are nearly six and one-half feet high,
and the hands nave a length of nearly
twelve feet.

"Do you see that man there?" re

during that period known what salary
her husband was getting. The wife

has never been able to learn what
amount' of money her husband has
been receiving In exchange for his la

Webster's Cssspllsseat.
While it is well known that Daniei
Webster in speaking of General Tay
lor's candidacy for the office of presi
dent pronounced It "a nomination not
fit to be made," he never failed to do
justice to the general's military abil
ities and eminent service In the field.
On one occasion he paid the old sol
dier a delicate and well deserved com
pliment General Taylor was com
plaining of the crowds of people who
daily besieged him soon after his as
cession to the presidency.
"They interfere," he said, "with my
official engagements and violate my
domestic retirement but still I do not
wish to turn my back upon my
friends."
"You never did upon your enemies,
general," Mr. Webster instantly re
plied. The Saab.
The snob cultivates a man or a wom
an not because he expects to get a job
or a loan out of either, but because he
thinks either can help him along into
society's elect. He cuts a former ac
quaintance because the unfortunate
person seems to be of no use In his
own social advancement He sop
presses the impulse that may lead him
to dislike useful people and like use
less ones just as the ambitious bank
clerk suppresses his small extrava
gances, his fondness for the race track.
Because social position seems so Im
portant to him he admires excessively
those 'who have it and snubs those
whose position he deems Inferior to his

FALSE ECONOMY.

A Paris bank clerk, who was carry

Tree economy Is not 'stinginess or
meanness. It often means very large
expenditures, for it always has the
larger end in view. True economy
means the wisest, expenditure of what
we nave, everything considered, look
ing at it from tneibroadest standpoint.
It Is not a good thing to save a nickel
at the expenditure of 25 cents' worth
of time.
Comparatively few people have a
healthy view of what real saving or
economy means. I have seen a lady
spoil a pair of fine gloves trying to
rescue a nickel from a mud puddle.
Several people have been run over by
street cars or teams la New York
while trying to rescue a dropped pack
age, a hat, an umbrella or a cane.
Bargain hunters are often victims of
false economy. They bay, because
they are cheap, a great many things
they do not actually need. Then they
will tell yon how much they have
saved. If they would reckon up .what
