toward the prosperity of our town, in

HOneStysPayS.

1t pays to be honest. 1t pays in more
ways than one. 1t not only pays in the
satisfaction it brings, but, in the long
run, it pays in dollars and cents. The
mechanic, the merchant, the manufac-
turer, the lawyer-in fact, every man
that seeks advancement through his la
bors will find that honesty is not only
the best policy, but the best stock in
trade that he can have. 1t may take
longer to earn fortune by honest Ia
Dor, but once earned, it will last longer
and buy more solid comfort than double
the amount earned by dishonest means.
Th ere is something better than wealth.
Integrity is priceless. Money cannot
buy it. The rich man may envy the
poor man its possession, yet the rich
can have it if they seek. it from the be-
ginning. Start right young man. Let
no ambitious whispers lead you astray.
Be determined to deal on the square
with your fellow man. Every dollar
thus earned will bring blessing to
your heart. If you can't make money
honestly you had better remain poor all
your life.. 1t will not pay to exchange
your honesty for few dollars and
cents. Money made by cheating your
neighbors will burn into your con-
science and destroy forever your earth
ly happiness. Does ambition lead the
citizen to high political power? Let
him understand that the only sure foot
hold in climbing che rugged steep of
fame is honesty of purpose. He may
have brilliant ability, may charm the
eye and please the ear, but if he lacks
the one great element of lasting power,
if he is false to himself he will be false
to others, and his fall will be as certain
as his elevation was rapid. The wrecks
of ambitious statesmen are to be seen
on every side. They had ability they |
had the confidence of the people; they |
were elevated to power and influence,
but they lacked honesty and they fell
moral wrecks made so by their own
folly. Let their fate be warning to
public men. Let personal integrity be
the priceless jewel that money can
neither buy nor sell. The fame that is
built upon honesty will stand like the
shaft of granite, the emblem of beauty
and eternal strength.

A Touch Of Spring,

After one of the longest and severest
winters on record the first faint breath
of spring has come like blessing. The
sun is warm and bright, the wind blows
soft and balmy from the South, the
streets are busy and full of life, the
pavements have shed their ice enamel
and are again safe and pleasant to walk
upon, and every face wears an express
ion of qualification and relief. The six
weeks of frost claimed by the remorse-
less woodchuck are at an end, whether
that claim has any special value or not
all will agree that it is time for spring.
