Young man, if you run plump vi

Young man, II you run plump up
against many things in your early life
that seem to prove that honesty is not
the best policy-and you will meet
such apparent evidences all along the
path of life-don't for minute be
led to conclude that the old and favor
lite maxim is not true, and swerve
from the strict line OF integrity, but
60 right along in the we'll beaten path
of honesty, doing with all your might
what your hands find to do, and doing
unto others as you would they would
do unto you. If you do not accumu-
late much filthy lucre, you will have
what is better, the respect OF yourself
and your fellow citizens; and don't
forget, though the world often seems
to be premium of dishonesty, it is
not the world but few people in it,
and they despise the act.

Every citizen of town ought to
think his the best town on earth.
There are lots of good features about
your home town if you just look on
the bright side OF things. There is
one thing about Ritzville citizens
which is commendable,. and that is,
they are all loyal and are ready to
speak good word for our hustling
little city, but then they could not do
otherwise because we have as good a
town as can be found anywhere on the
Pacific slope. We have up-to.date
business men and everything is NOV
ing to the front in way that should
be gratifying to all. OF course there
are Improvements that could be made
but things are being remedied as fast
as could be expected, and no one has
cause to grumble. and they don't.

If you need manager to look after
your affairs, run your business and han
die it successfully, the place to find him
is around the shady side of any store in
town. You will find him there telling
how somebody else's business ought to
be run to make it go, rehearsing all the
gossip that is rife about the town and do
ing many other little things that are use
full to the people generally. Usually a
visit to his home will reveal his wife at
the wash tub or wood pile, the fence
down and the place out of repair in gen.
eral. This is picture of what can be
seen almost any season of the year.
There are many people in the world who
can tell how things ought to be run but
these same people never do them. If it
took nothing but talking to make people
rich, most of us would be millionaires,
but unfortunately sitting around on the
shady side of the building and talking
never brought fame or fortune to any
man, consequently many people are conf
PEELED to remain poor. There is only
one safe way and that is to go ahead and
work with all our might and sooner or
later the time will come when we will be
rewarded for our labors, but we can new
err expect results unless an effort is put
forth,

No man can be happy without regular
employment. 1t does not matter much
what it is. The day laborer may be as
happy as the railroad president, or even
happier. Men may work and be I'M
happy, but no man can be happy without
work. BY work we mean some definite
regular employment. All work is not
physical labor by any means. Some of
the hardest and best work is brain work.
Happiness, health and growth all are
promoted by work. and are destroyed by
idleness.

Too hot to quarrel with this life;
Too hot for hats, too hot for strife;
Too hot the Office door to lock

To take the middle of the road;
Too hot to sing-too hot to sigh
Too hot to live, too hot to die!

Big Arenic Event.

Ringing Brothers Worlds Greatest
Shows will exhibit in Ritzville Thursday,
August goth. Readers of this paper do
not need to be reminded of the magni-
tude and high character of this great
show, for its reputation as the largest,
most complete and best conducted cir
Gus, menagerie and hippodrome in the
world is universal. Its thousands OF ad-
mlrers in this vicinity will, however, be
interested in learning that the manage
ment has not only kept up the former
high standard of the show, but has also
organized for the present season the
largest and most comprehensive travel
ing exhibition ever known. The great
show has been entirely reconstructed,
while the list Of performers, in every de-
partment, has been so completely
changed as to make this years program
new in every essential particular. There
are new acts, new artists and new spec
tacular displays, and every civilized land
the world over has been placed under
tribute to secure the latest and most
novel arenic features, The exhibition
opens with the most gorgeous and unique
display of horsemanship ever seen in
America. Perhaps the most fitting way
to describe this beautiful act is to call it
military horse ballet. 1t is given I'M
der the immediate direction of John
O'Brien, the greatest Of all great horse
trainers. A splendid triple-ring circus
performance follows. Among the artists
are many who have never before been
seen i'll this country, but whose names
and achievements are known through
out the world. In the list of famous &C
robats are the Nelson Family of ten I'M
equalled artists; the Roberts Family, the
Pettits, the Dibolian Brothers, the Leon
Sisters and the great contortionists, Gen
ero and Theol, and Ethardo. The aerial
lists are led blythe latest novelty. espcc-
tally imported by the Ringing Brothers
for this season, the wonderful Dunbar
Trio, direct from Australia; the Holo-
way Trio, high wire acrobats; the Ban
wards, the Tybell Sisters, Nettie Carroll,
and the Mikado's Own Troupe of Jap
anese equilibrists from Jeddo. The rid
ing suipasses anything in the equestrian
line ever before attempted. Among the
great riders are the Hobsons, the Scha-
dels, John and Michael Rooney, Albert
and Madame Davenport Reno McCree,
May Davenport, Julia Lowande and Al
bert Crandall. The trained animal sec
ton of the show presents Capt. Webbs
juggling seals, Prof. Woods dog and
pony circus and Pearl Souder's famous
comedy elephants. Forty funny clowns
contribute a wealth of comedy to the
performance. The menagerie presents
the only living giraffe and hundreds of
other interesting and curious animals, in
GLIDING 80 elephants. The hippodrome
races skillfully reproduce the exciting
scenes of the old Roman amphitheater
on scale of magnitude not surpassed
even in the days of Nero. The show will
be given here in its entirety, and that
means the biggest, best and most con-
vincing circus performance ever seen in
this city.
