Never Admit Defeut.

Never admit defeat or poverty,
though you seem to be down and have
not a cent. StOutly assert your divine
right to be man, to hold your head
up and look the world in the face. Step
bravely to the front whatever opposes.
and the world will make way for you.
No one will insist upon your tights
while you yourself doubt that you pos
sess the qualities requisite cor success.
Never allow yourself to be a traitor
to your own cause by undermining
your self confidence.
There never was Il time before when
persistent, original force was so much
in demand as now. The namby pam
by, nerveless man has little show in
the hustling world of today. In the
twentieth century a man must either
push or be pushed.
Every one admires the man who can
assert his rights and has the power
to demand and take them if denied to
him. No one can respect the man who
sinks in the rear and apologies for
being in the world. Negative virtues
are of no use in winning ones way
1t is the positive man, the man with
original energy and push. that fOrges
to the frOnt.-SuccesS.

to interfere in their peculiar political

they are coming to a comprehension of
the fact that it is not distinguished
honor to have Governor who it is ad-
mitted was not elected but was counted
in under the provisions of an infam-
ously partisan law.

FARMERS AS GAMERS.
To Take Care of Surplus Fruit and Equip
Their Own Cannery.

To Take Care of Surplus Fruit and Equip
Their Own Caunery.
A letter from Dover to the Morning
NetOs says:
''The possibility that fruit crops,
particularly the pear yield, will be so
large as to Overburden the city mar
kets at times this summer has caused
farmers and growers throughout this
section to consider the subject of small
farm canneries.
1t is generally conceded that the
canned fruit which the careful and
intelligent farmers wife puts up, using
the kitchen stove, is better than any
packed by the larger houses.
At a cost of less than 800 fruit
grower can equip cannery i'll an out
building with a capacity to pack from
1000 to 5000 3-pound cans day, and
twelve or fifteen children, could do the
work. The contention is also that
fruit taken from the trees and having
the natural flavor, uninjured by age
and bruising, will create a market of
its own and net the farmer a profit OF
3 cents per can.

Sugar Trust Stock.

More than 40 per cent. of Tuesdays
operations in Wall street were in
stock of the American Sugar Refining
Company, and it is candidly admitted
that these transactions constituted
nothing more or less than a gamble.
The stock fuctuated violently for no
cause whatever, except that it was
being manipulated by large holders.
Yet most of the men who were in the
thick of it would Indignantly deny
that they are on practically the same
level as the bookmaker and the faro
dealer. And possibly the two latter
individuals would also become indig-
nant at the comparison.

dependent for health and life upon the
orderliness and completeness of the pro-

allied organs of digestion and nutrition.
People who have been treated for dis
ease of head, heart, lungs, liver, nerves
or blood have often been treated in vain,
until they began the use of DIR. Pierce's

cleansed the blood, the other diseases
disappeared.
