SHOT A 12 -YEAR-OLD BOY.
BRUTAL MURDER NEAR TIIE TOWN OF
GILFOItD, MCI-HOAN.
Word was received last week from
Gilford of a mysterious shooting there.
Mrs. Lizzie Leney, who lives about a
mile and• a half from Gilford, went
away Thursday forenoon to call on a
neighbor. She left her children at
house.
When she returned twenty minutes
later she found her son Walter, aged
twelve, lying on the floor dead with a
bullett hole through his forehead.
an children told their mother a
s ange man had come into the house
and gone into the trunk where the re-
volver was kept, took it out and locked
the children in a room.
Walter started to fight with hili' and
asked :
"Where are you going with that re-
volver ?"
• The plan said :
"Stand back or I will shoot some of
you," and as Walter continued to ad-
vance the man carried out his threat.
' The stranger then Left, clinled over a
fence and disappeared.
THE POPULAR G IRLATCOLLEOrF..
From Harper's Bazar.
If you wish to enjoy life at school or
college, resolve deep down in your
heart, before you go, that you will be a
"popular gh1."
, It is the popular girl who is most
loved by teachers and fellow -students,
who does the best work in the class-
room, and who; knows how to make
herself and other people happy.
• When you arrive at college, a tremb-
ling Freshman, unknowing and un-
known, the first girl who is pointed out
to you is the popular girl. Beauty
counts for nothing among your fellow -
students, and money or high scholar-
ship likewise avails nothing; but the
one who has. the honor of being called
a popular girl possesses a host of friends
and admirers.
"She is the most popular girl in her
class," says your friend, pointing out a
girl with, •perhaps, red hair, freckles,
and a snub -nose. Yon gaze at her
plainness of countenance, and wonder
wherein lie her attractions. But when
once you have met with her, you count
yourself among her adorers -forthwith.
It is only,- perhaps, that she •has said
some kind little word to you which
melts your homesick heart. But a kind
little word from an upper-class girl goes
a long way with a homesick Freshman.
Yon are flattered by her condescen-
sion, and the next time you meet her
you are troubled lest the popular girl,
with her host of friends, has forgotten
an insignificant being like yourself.
But she bows most graciously, for she
neve(; forgets, does the popular girl.
Moreover, she stops you, as yon are
hurrying timidly by, and inquires kind-
ly about your welfare at college, and
says she will call upon you soon. Then
( you are immediately elevated to the
pinnacle of bliss, and you go on your
way adoring more than ever.
When you try to arrive finally, at a
conclusion as to the charm of the
popular girl you are not at a loss to
discover it. • It lies in her complete for-
getfulness -of self. She is utterly un-
selfish, and she shows it by being as
nice to the bashful Freshman as to the
kgnifled. Senior—by being as kited to
i
e plain stupid girl as to the brilliant
utterfly. In short, she never courts
vor for herself or acts the part of a
snob. Moreover, she is conscientious
in her college work, and never slights
it. For love is founded on respect, as
. every one knows, no orie can respect a
dullard. Finally, she is always ready
to help a friend in need, or to join her
in a gay good time. For the pepular
girl' is extremely fond of fun. She is
not a "prod," which is short for
prfldtgyr anti met}us olzt;trxlzat
pl;erloolenou, nor la she a "dig," She
rs, hid fist What o?; ery__gay _ood-
naa>;urod le: io y bet;orne,"ilishe tries to
forget self and to love her neighbor,
It does not seen; easy to you at first
to follow in her footsteps; but there
Will be one thing in Your favor Its you -
struggle to become fa, popular girl your-
self, and that is the spirit of democracy
which animates. college life. It makes
college society more of an ideal
republic; than you will ever meet in
after -life. The cell girl with her fine
gowns sVands no more fineore chance of be-
coming popular than the girl with
little pocket money, who makes her
own gowns during vacation, and tries
so fill her empty louse by doing tutor-
ing. The spoiled beauty likewise has
few, if any, to worship at her shellac,
and her vanity receivesblow after blow,
until it shrinks iuto nothingness.
Then, and only then, will she stand the
shadow of a chance to become as pett-
ed as the popular girl who has freckles
and a situ b-nuse.
Thus, you see, whoever you are, you
may, if you will, heeoine the popular
girl. and thou you will see wha1 leave
said is true. You will realize, or your
friends will, that your selfishness has
disappeared, that your vanity is zero,
and that vein• angularities have been
rubbed off by constaut friction with
other angles. Sometimes this result is
not accomplished until you are ready to
leave college, and you graduate when
you are just on the verge of becoming
popular. This is sad, and this is why I
said in the first place that if you wish
to r•11 joy college life, tvho roust resolve
before you enter college that you will
he the popular girl.

COL. DENLSON ON COL. DENI.SON.
A MAGISTRATE CHARGES, PLEADS AND
FINES HIMSELF FOR BREAKING TIIE
LAW.
The Magistrate, than whom 10)00
•loves a joke better, treated the press to
a very amusing anecdote respecting his
grandfather, who sat on the bench be-
fore hila. A plan had just been fined
$3 without costs for furious driving,
when the infuriated defendant went
downstairs and discovered the colonel's
sleigh waiting outside for•hiln without
any bells attached.
Laughing up his sleeve, the defendant
determined to get even with the colonel,
and going back into the court room ex-
claimed, "Sir, I wish to lodge infor-
ma.ti011 atgainst 0 certain person for
driving a sleigh without the necessary
bells attached" •
"Very proper charge," replied the
Magistrate. "\Vho is the individual ?"
"Colonel Denison," replied the aveng-
er gravely. .
"Bless me," exclaimed the Colones,
'You don't say that Colonel Denison,
has been driven to the Court -roam
without bells." And addressing the
clerk, he addled "wait a moment and l'll
go down and see."
Presently the Magistrate returned to
the bench, and with a judicial frown
befitting ltisdignity, turned to the clerk
and exclaimed, ";,lake out an informa-
tion, sir." This done, he gravely read
out the. summons and said, "Colonel
Denison, how do you plead?"
"Guilty, your Worship," replied the
sante voice.
"Y011 all' final $4 and costs or 3()
days. I must set an example to you
people who cannot be allowed to break
the law with impunity."
The idagistiate paid the fine.
SHE DIDN'T VOTE.
A man who was upin the country on
election day tells ofsonie• very funny
things that happened when the women
came out to vote. He was in a western
New York village and stood at the polls.
One of the watchers had been instruct-
ed to challenge all the women, and
when a woman walked into the booth
he stepped up to her and said : "Do
you desire to vote, Miss—?"
"Certainly," she said.
"Well, nu sorry, but I have to chal-
leiig•e you."
"What (lo you mean by that?" she
asked, suspiciously.
"I mean that there are persons who
think that you have not the right to
vote, and demand that you shall swear
your vote in."
She stared. "Why," she stormed, "I
have lived in this village all my life,
and I have been a consistent church
member. I insist on voting without
any such proce ding.
"You cannot vote unless you take an
oath to certain things." '
"Well," she snapped, "I'11 take the
oath."
• The watcher pronounced the oath,and
the. woman took it. "Now," she said,
"show ane where to vote."
"But you must answer some ques-
tions first. Are you over 21 years of
age ?"
"Why, you know that I am. Didn't
I know you when you were a tiny little
boy ?"
"That dosen't -answer the question.
"Well, then, yes."
"How old are you 1"
"Now, see here?" expostulated the
woman, "I don't see why you drag such
things into this business. I just told
you that I was 21."
"But how old are you?" he persist-
ed.
"Fifty-nine," she answered, looking
daggers.
Where do you live?"
"Next door to you, you impudent
thing."
"Have you any bet or wager on the
result of this election ?"
The woman could stand it no longer.
She poured forth her wrath on that
watchers head,unstinteclly. 'Youslan-
derous person 1" she said, "that yon
should insinuate such a thing about me
when you know that I am opposed to
anything of the sort. i belong to the
church. 1 wouldn't do such a thing as
bet. I—but 1 won't stay here and be
insulted any more."
And she flounced out . of the booth
and did not exercise her perogative.—

SMALL COMFORTS.
From Ilurper's Bazar.
Whether it is better to be happy or
to be comfortable is a matter which is
usually decided by our temperaments.
There are people whose happiness does
not consist in comfort or -depend on it,
and there are people whose comfort in
00 wise depends on their happiness.
13ut while it is clearly right to scorn
material advantages if they cost us our
peace of mind, we Must acknowledge
it is only the cart of common-sense to
take personal -comfort when it is to be
had without such cost.
Yet there are people who feel- a
positive pleasure in making themselves
uncomfortable. They deny themselves
a,llp•essirely. They sit, from choice, in
the coldest corner of the room; they
select tate driest bit of cake or• bread;
they (decline all the 81111111 pleasures of
life with an air of virtuous resignation,
as if they were entitled to )raise for
their small sacrifices. Yet those who
know thein hest have scant respect for
their self-denial. In speaking of one of
these self -elected ascetics, her sister re-
marked, with as quizzical glance :
„You know, my dear, Bate always
will 1>0 a1 martyr."
Does it appear wise to despise the
small solaces and refreshments of life
when they come naturally in our way ?
Is it not better judgment to accept,
whatever of cheer may he legitimately
ours ? While there is so Much sufter-
ing in life which the have to bear, and
which it is right we should endure un-
complaiugly, it seems as if wr might
go further than this. We inay say we
ought to take special pains to cultivate
a habit of finding delight and satisfac-
tion in little pleatsantuesses, and to con-
trive ways of giving ourselves ease in
little things. The warmth Of a 1001n,
the rest of a footstool. the help of some
invention for doing a piece of work,
arc' right to take and wise to plain for
and take pains to secure.
So, looking to her winter's comfort
as well as her winter's edification, the
prudent 'housewife will see that hooks
•an(1 shelves aro in easy, handy- posi-
tions, and in plentiful number. Site
will see that drawers pull out without
sticking, and tiIlit windows may 1>e
raised and lowered without straining
her muscles. She will insist that her
shutters shut tightly- without too great
effort, end stay open without slamming.
Her utensils for all sorts of work will
be Of the hest kind, abundant, and in
convenient spots for instant use.
And this same prudent housewife
will think of little methods of helping
herself and gig in occasional rest . to
her body, and thereby quietness to her
soul. She will keep at memorandum
sheet, tvit1i its lists of wants for kitchen,
dining -room, sewing -room, and parlor.
Site regards her memory too highly to
burden it. with a thousand trifles, from
a corkscrew to a spool Id silk.
She has places for everything, be-
cause by so doing she knows just where
to find tlteul without spending time in
the search. She takes time to enjoy
every trifling gratification that comes
in her path. Her creed teaches her
that the pleasant things of life were
put there for this purpose, and that she
is unthankful who turns persistently
away from the lovely every -day small
pleasures God has scattered so profuse-
ly along the road.
THE December number of "Tales
Frain Town Topics" presents, with its
1181101 farrago of miscellaneous reading,
a complete novel by Charles' Stokes
Wayne, entitled, "Anthony Kent."
It is a tale of love that is both bad and
Aire, and its scenes are laid in Venice,
Monte Carlo, Paris and New York.
Anthorlp Kent's experience in loving a
beautiful ad vanturess, and afterwards
meeting and losing his heart to the
woman's innocentyoung (laughter who
had been deserted ars as baby by her un-
natural mother, is such as to hold the
attention of most readers, and the
author's bright, and attractive style
suffices to make the story admirable as
a piece of literature. Town Topics Pub-

"Chloroform is an oily liquid, of an
aromatic, ethereal odor consisting of
carbon, hydrogen and chlorine." That's
the way Webster puts it. The cost of
producing the lowest grade of this
liquid is 60 cents per pound. But a
Windsor citizen and a Detroit lawyer
have a scheme which knocks old time
methods in the shade. They have a
discovery by which they propose to
manufacture chloroform from natural
'gas at a cost of but seven cents per
pound. They have tested the operation
thoroughly and are now engaged in
sinking a well a short distance from
Detroit for gas. It is their intention to
establish works in Detroit to employ
600 men. There is also a prospect of
having ari establishment in Windsor in
the event of gas being brought th ere.
