WHAT KNOW WE?
What know we of the kmiwing grief
That dims perchance our neighbor's
way,
The fretting, worry, secret pain,
That may he Ills from day to day?
Then let no idle word of ours
Sting to his heart with more dismay.
What know we of temptations deep
That hover round him like the night
What bfttcr struggles may be his,
What evil influences blight0
Then be not hasty to condemn
If lie hath strayed from paths of
right.
We know so little of the hearts
That everywhere around us beat,
So little of the inner lives
Of those whom day by day we greet,
It behooves us one and all
To deal gently with those we meet.
Gently to deal and gently judge,
With that divinest charity
That thinks no evil, but would seek
'Pile good in every soul to see,
Measuring not by what it is,
Hut by that it strives to be.

CUTTING DIAMONDS.
What a Jeweler Says of Discovery of a
New System.
“I see in some papers that a new
way of cutting diamonds has been dis
covered,” says a jeweler. “There are
almost as many new ways of cutting
diamonds discovered ae systems to
beat the bank at Monte Carlo, and
they are about as successful. As a
matter of fact, diamond cutting has
been reduced to an exact science. The
two best-known systems are the bril
liant and rose cuts. To obtain the
greatest possible brilliance with the
least waste stones are brilliant-cut—
that is, cut with a flat top, or‘table/
as it is called, ltose-cut stones are
cut without the top table and are flat
in back. A bigger diamond can be
produced by rose-cutting than by
brilliant-cutting, but it will not pos
sess half the brilliance of the latter.
Kose diamonds are used largely in in
j crusted jewelry.”

rl'he White County News very
forcibly calls attention to the fact
that John Ila.v is first in line in the
Presidential succession. But then
some papers delight in calling at
tention to unpleasant thoughts.

the street fair in Paragould and
wound up by reminding thorn that

this is cheek.
ABOUT CONSISTENCY.
The Newark Journal is displaying a
great deal of inconsistency. When
the News lambasted Jeff Davis for hi>
many political tricks, The Journal
thought it was a shame to say any
thing about it, as Davis was the Idol
of the Arkausas democracy. It said
many other things along this line as
to what a good democrat ought to do.
Now comes The Journal and lambaste
Gov. Davis for appointing Matheny, a
democrat, as representative, when he
and Stroud, independent, tied in the
vote. The Journal speaks the truth,
but why couldn’t it always do so when
discussing Jeff Davis? Simply became
it never happened to have its own ox
gored,—Newport News.
We must confess that if The
Journal is guilty of any inconsist
ency, our views of consistency do
not agree with those of the solid
ary and dignified editor of our es
teemed contemporary.
the Journal did accuse the News
of inconsistency (and proved the
charge) when, in the thickest of
the battle last winter, it deliber
ately flopped from Davis to Rec
tor and then back to Davis, and all
the while claimed to be an ardent
supporter of Senator Jones, whom
Davis was straining every energy
to defeat.
If The Journal did not have the
courage to denounce the short
comings of our party leaders, or
the officials who administer the af
fairs of state when their official
acts are as corrupt as hades itself,
; we would never mention consisten
cy. If it is consistency for a news
paper indorse corruption, simply
, because the man who is responsible
i for the corruption happens to en
; tertain political views similar to
those advocated by the paper, then
we are free to confess that we are
a rank stranger to consistency.
And if the News will show where
The Journal ever misrepresented
Davis or lied about him, we will
publicly admit that the News has
a divine right to flop at any time,
whether the sign is right or not.
The Journal has never fought
Matheny as a democrat, or from a
political point of view, but has
fought him because we knew that
he wrongfully defrauded another
democrat out of the nomination,
and then, to make matter w'orse,
virtually stole the office from an
other man.
The Journal is a firm believer in
that good old democratic slogan:
“Equal rights to all and special
privileges to none,” and does not
propose to lay down and say noth
ing, like our good brother Water
man, when outrages are being en
acted upon the people, simply be
cause we might thereby gain the
favor of those who happen to oc
cupy positions in high places.
A Sad Disappointment.
Ineffective liver medicine is a
disappointment, but you don't
want to purge, strain and break

gently that one enjoys the pleas

the liver. (Jure bihousuess, torpid

S’dclde at Jonesboro.
Jonesboro, Sept. 19.—At an
eaily hour yesterday morning a
tragic end to an unnappy life
came to Mrs. Virgin Bynum, wife
of Brock Bynum, of this city.
While the circumstances sur
rounding her death were not all
made clear, the coroner’s jury
rendered a verdict that deceased
came to her death by a pistol shot
fired by herself.
Mrs. Bynum, formerly Miss
Vergie Wicker, was noted for
her beauty and vivacity. She
married while young, but her
married life was an unhappy one
and she separated from her first
husband. A year ago she became
Mrs. Bynui”, and in this union
she seemed to be unhappy at
times.
Wednesday night she was at a
neighbor’s house for the night,
her husband being in Memphis
He came home, however, and she
wanted to go home, but on ac
count of a downpour of rain he
refused to let her go out. A
quarrel ensued, a pistol shot rang
out and her body fell limp to the
floor the shot striking her in the
center of the hi east and coming
out ol her hack. A 32-calibre le
volver was used.
From Groundhog.
