According to an exchange tn
meanest man on earth has been fount
out in an adjoining county. He SOLE
his son-In law a half interest in COW
and then insisted it was the front hal
he sold, calmly approprlating the mill
while he forced the young man to fee
and water the COW twice day. TIL
COW recently hooked the old man an
he is now suing the son-in-law for dan
ages.
The Davenport Republican say
that "when you find man who he
succeeded in life you will find a ma
who, when young did not consider an
position he occupied a "snsp." Il
did not take advantage of his positio
to idle away his time and make a sho
of doing something in order thsy pa
day would not miss him. For a tim
such man may succeed, but in tt
end he falls as he should. The youn
man succeeds best in the end who seei
to earn little more than is paid
him in wages, as he thus cultivate
habits of industry essential to succe
when he goes into business for himsel
The young man who works on tt
"snap" principal comes to grief SOON
or later. 1t is the self-reliant, hustlir
chap who wins in this age, and not tt
fellow who is looking for snaps"
