All nations that have ever amounted
to much have been in debt, but this is
no excuse why every body who makes it
up should be. A man in business gem
orally very properly owes on goods.but
SO long as he meets his demands on
time it is ell right, but that class of
people who run in debt to all Of their
neighbors, without any prospect Of
paying, and rather than do So spend what
little money they do get unnecessarily,
are worse nuisance in society than
fox is around hen house. We have
often seen men who owe half Of the
merchants in the city take every last
STRIPPING in their family to the circus
at dollar ahead, or spend their money
when they do happen to get some, for
the most extravant thing and let their
creditors whistle. If a poor man lives
economically and tsmperately, and tries
to do his best, one can have charity for
him even If he is slow, but for the man
who seems to live to aviod meeting bis
obligations never. Such men ought
never to be given any position of trust,
yet they arc eften the ones who seek it
Grst. For our part We will scratch the
name of a man at the polls as soon for
being dead beat as for any other cause,
if not quicker. One who Cannot tend
to his own business should mover be
given chance to attend to the peoples.

indulge in this occupation at this tine
as naturally as frog takes to the wat

half Of the business men of the place,

regretted very much that he did not

It is that he should never snake fun"
of the misfortune Of another. A per-
son never deserves ridicule for thing
he had nothing to do in bringing about.

should be pitied rather than ridiculed,
