Once upon time two frogs, who
had been living In comfort and ease
il a cool pool Of water, were accident
ally scooped up by pious milkman
in bucket OF water which he poured
into his can in order to give his milk
more body and thereby increase his
revenue. The frogs were astonished
to find themselves in an unknown ELI :
ment in which IT was not possible to
support life, and they had to kick
yigously in order to keep their heads
above the milk. One of them becom-
ing disheartened by being shut up in
the dark in an element entirely new
to him, said "Lets give It up and
go to the bottom; it's DO use kicking
any longer" The other said. ooh,
mol Let's keep kicking as long as we
can, and see what the outcome will be.
Maybe things will change presently"
So one frog gave up and went to the
bottom. The other kept kicking, and
when the milkman got to town and
opened his can the frog had kicked
out lump Of butter large enough to
Goat him. and he was sitting on it
very comfortably. Moral: In hard
times never give up, but keep kick

If you have little farm or bust
ness and are out Of debt, don't fret
and work yourself and good wife into
the grave for the sake of making
money, IS the wholesome advice given
by an exchange: You have but one
life to live and it's brief at best. Take
little comfort and pleasure as you
60 along day by day, and try to do a
little good to others A morbid, in
satiate desire 10 possess the earth, to
grab everything in sight, is at the
foundation of more misery than al
most anything in sight, is at the four
dation of more misery than almost
any other thing. Wealth alone will
never keep your memory green after
you are gone--a good life and kind
actions will.
