1t is suggested that the way to
build up a town Is to talk about it;
write about it; help to improve it;
beautify the streets; patronize the
merchants; advertise III the newspap-
ers; elect good men to all Offices; be
courteous to strangers who come
among you; never let pass an oppor-
tunity TO speak good word for it,
and studiously avoid saying anything
bad about it. Remember that every
dollar you invest in permanent i'm
provement is that much money at in
terest. Never oppose any necessary
improvement because it may raise
your taxes a few cents.

A Model Wife.

Jones was well aware that his wife
was in the habit of rifing his pockets
when he was asleep, but, ike wise man,
he kept silent on the subjact One
night, however, he awoke and caught
her in the act.
-c"IIaf' he exclaimed, what are you
doing, my dearf"
The lady started, her cheek flushed,
the pantaloOns dropped from her grasp
and she was about to make full con-
fession when bright idea entered her
head. Recovering her composure she
said:
AZ was looking to see whether your
pantaloons needed any buttons"
They do, they do, my dear" he ex-
claimed, springing from bed, needed
'em for weeks, months, and wondered
why you didn't sew 'em on; but waited
for was sure you would get TO it some
sine. And how kind of you to get out
of bed at this time of the night to attend
! to 'em. Say what you will, there's moth
ing in the world like good wife. Let
me turn up the gas little, SOS you II
have all the light you want in sewing
'em on. Got your needle and buttons
NJ. w ell, kcL I1c HbCIC skCJ shAC
I'll get EN- for you.
Mrs. Jones proceeded to sew on the
buttons, while her husband sat on the
side OF the bed and encouraged her with
words of praise for heI wifely care and
thought for his comfort, occasionally
remarking that go where he would, he
would always say there was nothing in
the world like good wife.
Then ne went to the wardrobe and
brought out several pairs of trousers, a
coat, two or three old vests, and num-
Der of shirts, from all of which buttons
were missing, and cheerfuliy observed !:
while we're at it we'll make a night
of it."
Two hours later, when Mrs. Jonas,
with sigh removed the thimble from
her finger. Mr.. Jones patted her on the
cheek and said:
81 say it again, my, dear, say it again
that wherever go will make it known,
proclaim il from the bousetops, shout it
in the highways and byways, that q
wife who gets up in the middle OF the
night to sew buttons on her husbands
clothes is priceless treasure, crown
to that husband, and an ornament to
her SEX"
Then Mr.. Jones, chuckling to himself,
lay calmly down and slept the sleep of
the iust.-Dstroit Free Press. ~
