"oh, why should the spirit of mortal be
proud?"
Yes, why should thought of the kind be
allowed?
For when we imagine we're up at the top
Fate gives US trip and we tumble "ker-
flop"
And just when a man falls in love with him
self
Fate's likely to lay him away on the shelf
He may fancy he'll get the whole world at o
haul.
And awaken to find he's not in it at all.
Albeit just now we have plenty, you know,
The time may arrive when we'll have to
let go.
And because we are favored we mustn't get
gay,
For things won't forever be coming our
way.
man who at present we venture to spurn
May by-and-by pay US the wages we earn.
And we ought to make friends in our sun
shine anent
the days we're not able to lay up a cent.
You'll sometimes meet people who fancy
that they,
When once they are up, have arisen to stay.
They seem to forget that all life is game
Where wings are attached to both riches
and fame.
They're up like rocket. and then, pretty
quick,
In most of the cases, are down like the
stick.
And obscurity tucks all about them a
shroud.
"oh, why should the spirit OF mortal be
proud?"

Couldn't Accept an Ordinary Man.
The man who agrees with everybody and
everything is only an echo and an imita-
tion. He lacks individuality. His success
in life Will consist in simply following after
others and cleaning what is left after the
reapers have passed. He will be too meek
to push himself to the fore and demonstrate
that
You must hustle to win in this great world
And study your cards every minute;
1t may be truly said in the jackpot of life
The man who is shy isn't in it.
To be, proud Of ones attainments is only
natural, yet to become unreasonably 80 Is
none the less deplorahle. An example of
such pride came to light at one of the popu-
lar summer resorts recently. A young man
fell desperately in love with q young lady,
or at least he said he did. which practically
amounts to the same thing. He was a very
worthy young man. but he came from the
common walks of life. He was reminded of
sought to press his suit. He had learned,
however, that her ancestry had no more
frills on 1t than had his, and he called her
attention to the matter and insisted that so
far as their positions in life were concerned
it was about equine and equine. It was
then that she further explained to him:
"Yes, but you see am already engaged to
an Italian count, an English lord, a Ger
man duke, college professor from New
England, and poet from Texas, and now
to accept the hand of smother who is only
common ordinary man would not be treat
ing the rest OF my friends just right You
are nice young man and admire you,
but you see you are simply outclassed.

their minds and who think their opinions
are little bit superior to or more correct
than anyone else's, and no matter what is
spoken in their hearing they invariably beg
leave to differ.

A New Song Of the Shirt.


Pride is driving the girls out Of their
natural domestic sphere into the CONNER
cial, business world, where the men for so
long fancied they held an exclusive monop-
oily. And it is only natural that young
women prefer to dress neatly and fill posi-
tions where they can see what is going on
in the world rather than to wear soiled
aprons and stay in the Kitchen, where the
range of vision depends upon the size of
the back window. Social caste DEGREES that
the girl in the kitchen must marry someone
not above her own station in life, but the
young lady typewriter in the business Office
NAV entangle the heart of the head of the
firm. Things have greatly and happily
changed since Tom Hood wrote his Song
of the Shirt"

With eyelids cunningly bright,

What Goes With q High Hat.

The statement that "pride goes before a
fall' is more to be depended upon than the
promises OF summer seaside girl. A GER
tain man-whose name is withheld for OBJ
vious reasons-by close application to duty
and the practice of rigid economy, rose to q
good position and acquired small bank
account. He ate cheap lunches, shaved
himself, blacked his own boots, smoked g.
cent cigars, and economical generally. He
was prompt in getting to work, often rum
ming several blocks in order to be at his
post of duty Just at the minute. He dressed
fairly well, but did not, like several of his
associates, wear a high hat. After some
arguments he convinced himself that he
could afford to wear high hat as we'll as
they. It would cost only a few dollars
extra, and so the purchase was made.
The first day he wore it he was certain
that angels and men were all watching him.
He felt that he had at once stepped from
the ranks of ordinary beings into the realm
of real gentility. But he was soon i'm
pressed with the fact that the SUIT of clothes
he was wearing was not just the right cut to

outfit at the tallor's His somewhat worn
shoes also appeared to be little out of har-
mony and he invested in a new pair. When
he went to lunch he could not make him.
self believe that it was just the proper thing
for q man who wore high hat to sit on
high stool and eat cheap morsel. as he had
been in the habit of doing, SO he seated him
self at the table and ordered square meal.
Afterward, instead of the usual "three-for-
ten,," he bought some 'two-for-a-quarter"
cigars to keep company with his glossy tile.
He had occupied so much time in partaking
of full meal that he knew he would be late
in getting back to his work, but it would

he had drawn the last of his savings out of

Yesterday "Padgo" O'Ncal was ar
raigned before Squire Phillips for the
alleged larceny OF $50 from Mrs. Eta
Ditty's house Sunday morning. His
attorney, Col. W. w. Arnctt, was not
present, and for this reason his applica-

Thursday, March IL, was granted.
0'Neal gave bond, his father being his
surety, in the sum OF $1,000, and was
released.
1t appears that the evidence against
the accused is even stronger than was
printed yesterday. Mrs Ditty says she
