bare knuckles and no seconds. Mr..
Carnes refused to go up the hill. but
offered to accommodate Mortimer
right then and there. but Mortimer had
recollections of the enemy a-comin',
and withdrew his challenge.
In the evening the enemy got on the
war path again and, George not being
available, he started to find some one
who was. He entered the Carnes
Bros. store, and become coming at
George Carnes. Now Mr. Carnes didn't
care about him coming at all, and told
him so. The old man didn't believe It
could be possible, and offered TO go
out on the hill and discuss the ques-

Carnes came from behind the counter
and took a trapeze performers grip on
the old mans whiskers, and shook all
the fight out of him in about three sec

some unusual and marvellous virtue
was contained therein. The mental vi

How any man can close his lips over
teeth covered with a growth of fungus

a mouth is a disease breeder is un-

Not less eondemnable is the neglect

PACKER swIFTS MAXIMs.

The bushes maSims of Gustavus
Franklin Swift, head OF the great pack
ing firm of Swift & Co. Chicago, show
something of the methods which con-
tributed to his success. Here are some
Of them:
You can never make big success
working for somebody else. No man.
however rich. has enough money to
waste in putting on style. The richer
a man gets the more careful he should
he to keep his head level. The man
that doesn't know his business from
the top clear down to the bottom isn't
any kind of a business man. Business.
religion and pleasure Of the right kind
should oe the only things in life for
any man. A big head and big bank
account were never found together to
the credit Of any man-and never will
be. No young man is rich enough to
smoke 25-cent cigars. Every time
man loses his temper he loses his head,
and when he loses his head he loses
several chances. Next TO knowing your
own business it's mighty good thing
to know as much about your neigh
boris as possible-espeeially If he's in
the same line. The man with the big
gest title and salary should be the
biggest man in the firm. The best
man ever did shouldn't be his stand
ard for the rest of his life. The sue
cessful man of today worked mighty
hard for what he got: the successful
man Of tomorrow will have to work
mighty hard TO get it away.
