Few better thi ngs are said than the
following from the pen OF Oliver Wen
dell Holmes.
Don't Gatter yourselves that friend
snip authorizes you to say disagreea-
Bile things TO your iutimates. On the
contrary, the nearer you come into "e-
lation with pc rson the more necessa-
ry do tact and courtesy become. Ex-
cept ia cases of necessity, which are
rare, leave your friend TO learn uns
pleasant truths from his enemies; they
are ready enough to tell him. Good
breeding never forgets that amour
propre is universal" "

Brandon News; The Scranton Dem
ocrat-Star speaks of the "cobwebs that
clog progression" in Mississippi. 1t
isn't cobwebs halt as much as it Is poll
itics, and duru mean brand Of the
article at that, that is keeping the
wheels of progress from whirling IN
this old commonwealth. Under the
order Of things UP to the present time
man could raise cotton in peace OF
raise he'll in politics, and a great many
have done the latter We need more
mill-owners and mill-operators and
fewer professional politicians to stii
the people up with the isms and lido
syncrasies Of pot hunters and pie-eat'

GRENADA MISS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY a. 1900.

Did it ever occur to you that in buy
ing anything on the market, from can
dies to lumber, in ninety nine cases out
of hundred, you can get better value
for your money from merchant who
advertises? Why? Because the mer-
chant who is wide-awake enough 10
solicit your trade and offer inducement
for it, who makes such prices that he
does not fear to publish them to you
and incidentally his competitors, is just
as wide-awke in buying his goods and
gets them at prices that enable him to
offer such inducements. He of course,
does larger business and is therefore
satisfied with a smaller margin, and
often prefers to sell below cost rather
than let his goods become unreasonable
or shop p-worn.-Kosciusk Star.

An exchange says that in the near
future we may expect to read some-
thing like the following in the
daily papers: About 10 o'clock this
morning horseless milk wagon which
was loaded with cowless milk, col
lided with brainless rider on. d chain =
less wheel. The luckless whe Gilman
was badly injured, and being HON eless.
he was taken in a horseless cab to the
home of the frieudless."

Some unknown exchange says; "Peo-
pie in too many places waste their time
in making faces. They will wreck their
own interests in trying to injure some
one else. They permit envy and ieal-
ousy TO blind their judgment and dom
mate their actions. To build up a
town people must pull together, not
pull down. In private business they
must compete; in public business they
must cooperate. Any other policy is
silly and suicidal and the evidence of a
small mind. New communities stand
together better than old ones in which
animosities Of long standing, social and
professional rivalries and deep seated
grudges. Hence. the oldest residents
very frequently become bigoted and
stubborn. and mean, and frst-class fu-
perals become public blessings. A

A late item of news from Manila
states that when the Americans first
occupied Manila there were but three
or four saloons in the city. Now there
are three or four hundred. No better
evidence could be offered OF the :nva'
sion of the PHILIPPINES by civilization
for it is u historical fact that civiliza-
tion and the saloon have invaded saw
age domains together. Not everyone
however, will regard the fact as cred
liable to civilization.
