TRYING no THINK OF A THOUGHT.

The editor sat in his rush bottom
chair, trying to think of thought !;
az he plowed his fingers all through
his hair, and not one idea they
brought. He'd written on temper
ance, tariff and trade. and the talk
of spoor corn-crop, and joked about
ice cream and weak lemonade, till
his readers had warned him to stop.
And weary wishing, sleep came to
his eyes; as he pillowed his head on
his desk. when thoughts while
awake had refused to arise, came in
troops that were strange and grotes-
que. AS the ideas fairly float, he

HOW TO SPEND MONEY.

Now every intelligent man that
works energetically and applies
himself closely to business can and
does make money in this country
but there is a vast difference be-
tween making money and saving
money. and the reason why SO many
of as do not acquire and accumulate
money is because wo do not know
how to spend money after We have
worked aud made it.
To back up this proposition with
proof let any working man, who
does not accumulate, watch himself
and see how often and in how many
ways and places he spends a dime,
dollar, and larger amounts for
something out of which he never can
realize any benefit. There are per-
sons who will buy things that are in
absolute incumbrance to them, sim
ply because they have the money at
the time to pay for them or because
they believe them to be cheap"
Reader, nothing is cheap to any man
at any price that he does not need
and that will not pay back to him
the money he puts in it.
Not few lay all the profits Of
their labor upon the shrine Of fash
ion, where it can never possibly pay
them back one cent of interest.
Some consume the fruits of their
honest toll upon mere external show,
the sha'lowest of requirements.
Some cater to the demands of their
insatiate appetite for pleasure, and
thereby cast their hard earned dol
lars out upon the current OF circu-
lation TO be gathered by them nc
more. And thus it is that majority
of the wage-earners and working
people of this country spend their
money in such ways and in such
things as evidence the truth of the
proposition that many of us. do not
know how to spend money, which is
the great secret of financial success.
This therefore, is the important les.
son that every one should learn. For
not how he makes money, but how
he spends his money, is the yard
stick by which mans chances for
financial success are measured.
Millions of dollars are spent an
nually in this country for what may
be termed, in reality, empty moth
ingness. Reader, how much of the
money for which you labor do you
