( There is lots of fret, worry and money
to be saved by a careful study of how to
make the best of your circumstances, and
how to be thoroughly satisfied with youl
own things The best feeling men we
know Of is horse traders. 1t may be that
some of them cloroform their conscicnces
which we do rot approve, but the,
have such fine stccds so many fine points
and good qualities. They arc always in {
good humor. If you live in the country
praise it and you will like it better. If you
live IN town, bag on it. Speak of the
fine points and good traits of its cili
zcns. 1t will help you ard the town too.
w. IT. McFall rarely whistles a tune
and is one white man that never was am
bilious to be considered fine singer, il
fact he cannot sing rs well as the
editor Of the SENTINEL who has distin
guished himself frequently in church by
singing common metre hymns to short me
trc tunes. But anyhow it became rumoret
that McFall was the leader of the Olt
Folks Singing Association, and that 1t
had gotten it up to work off al old stool
of Christian Harmonics. We hasten t
say that l.e never owned a Christian Har
mony, and that he has been too busy sell
ing all kinds of merchandise and furnitur
to sigr to a singing school, McFall enjoy
good music, but he has not yet furnished
for fun or profit.
