We make the following extract from a private letter to us, dated Kansas City, Eeb. 4, and as it carries it3 own object on its face we submit it to our readers for their consideration, merely remarking that the idea is a good one "I do not mean to dictate to the people of Attica, but I do think the time has come when she should be introduced to the outside world, and in my opinion the time is at hand when she should make an extra effort for that which she is surely destined, namely, the metropolis of Harper county. The Santa Fe is booming Southern Kansas and the Panhandle, and there will be numerous excursions over that road in the next sixty days and "we" should take advantage" of the opportunity. I think it would be a good idea to get out a description of Attica and vicinity (in circular form, the larger the better), showing the advantages and prospects she has. which are not a few.

Well may it be considered a legacy, Inherited hy all, but no one mau or any number of men can ere sever or destroy.

The heir as he secures his untold wealth scatters it like feathers to the wind and the several generations fl his posterity oon find themselves at the bottom of tht financial ladder. While in this world the will that nature makes and our progenitors bequeath for the general good is not destroyed, but to its list is added a little here and a little there a single thought, perhaps, a little germ, that grows as it is thrown on the fertile soil of the human intellect, until its sequel pulls down the moon within our horizon or changes a substance into its elements.

dangerous plaything with doubtful eyes. Charley thought it was a beauty red and blue and a golden bird to watch its Charley was warmly dressed, cap and earlaps ulster, red mittens and leggins. "And now, said his mother," you may go, Charley if you won't coast where it is steep, or icy or where there is anything in the way. Perhaps Charlie's ear-laps were to thick, or he may have thought that a coast that wasn't icy or steep was no fun at all, and that he would do as he pleased. However that may be, Charlie did not steer straight.

Halfway down a steep, icy hill, was an ugly tree. As Charlie and the "swallow" came flying down at a fearful speed, they struck against the tree. The doctor came every day for a week and while poor Charley lay with his bandaged arm, he had time for a good deal of thinking. He has learned to ask older people what he may do and to heed what they may say to him. But he is as full of fun as ever bonny, brown-eyed Charlie.

REPRODUCED. Charley's papa said that he must have a sled, that it was not good for him to stay in the house all tbe time. So when his father brought the sled there was little birds painted on it in red, yellow and gold. His mother bundled him up and told him not to go to any icy place or a hill too steep. He thought there was no fun if he didn't, so he went to a place where there was a tree, so he went down and struck against the tree and broke his arm.

The doctor had to come every day in the week. Cass Elerick. rapidity that rivals the lightning flash. But is the perfection of things In which he revels the product of a day?
