Edwin N. Fischer
Helping Your Neishbors is Help
inc Yourself.

What helps one helps all. The
thing to do Is to stand together
and help one another. Help the
town and you will help yourself.
The prosperity of one Is the pros.
perlty of all. Pull down your
neighbor and you hurt yourself.
Put a wire across the path of pro-
gress and you will break your own
neck. Jump onto the rich man and
you'll be poor indeed. Cypress the
poor and you'll suffer from poverty,
Be hopeful, big hearted and
broad gagged. There Is nothing
that hurts the town, the people and
the business more than the pres.
ence of a narrow, contracted spirit,
a cross between a glue pot and a
vinegar barrel, who never spends a
dollar for his or any ones comfort.
Then build up yourself and town,
don't pull down your neighbors or
envy others who are prospering.
Always have respect for others, the
same as for yourself, then all may
thrive and prosper together.

The Clarksburg Telegram says:
The rich oil and coal fields allure
eastern men into the belief that a
country once theirs Is always theirs.
They forget that there Is any other
right or title to our lands except
what they might have had one time,
or else they want to get rich. quick
on the ground that their forefathers
should have clung to the regions,
which in future years developed
into the richest In the world, the
gold fields of California not ex-
cepted. Procrastination Is the
thief of time and they have waited
too long. Still 1t may be well to
entertain the visionary hope that
they are to be oil and coal mag
mates.
Periodically some of them appear
here with the claim that all this
section of the country Is theirs and
that they have come to reclaim 1t
and dlspossess those who have 1t
under their control. Charles Stew

In England, but Is now a resident

JUDGE GOFF'S OIL FIELD

of New York City Is the latest to
arrive. His claim Is that his
grandfather purchased 10000
acres In Harrison, Doddrldge and
Lewis counties of a S. c. Pugh In
1873 1874, and there are deeds In
the county clerks Office to that et-
feet, but 1t was under an old patent
grant, which, 1t Is claimed, became
imperative years ago. He had his
attorney with him and together
they examined the titles and the
law. From this city they went to
Weston this morning to look up
titles there. What course they will
pursue remains yet to be seen, but
the people In possession of this vast
tract of territory are not exercising
any uneasiness over the matter.
They feel as secure as If they were
enclosed with a Chinese wall.
An interesting feature OF the
matter Is that the scope claimed
includes all of Judge Nathan COTS
oil territory, and when they get It,
they will be sitting IN the United
States bench, or going back to
England to pay homage to King
Edward.

Dear Sir: We suspect you'd like the
tale, how a woman beat two hardware,

We tried our best TO get those men to
sell Devoe lead-and-zinc in that bright
town: and failed. Reluctantly took
Mrs. E. R. Bowman, druggist
They said they couldn't sell paint for
more than Sl.25 gallon. Mrs. Bowman
can. She has sold about all the paint,
that has been sold there since.
She knew Devoe; had sold our artists
materials. Had some sense and forces
besides: she easily learned that cheap
is dear in paint, and told the people:
Mr.. Burt Young bought q gallon De-
voc for rooms that had always taken a
gallon of other paint; had half left:
Mr.. E. H. Hiler, jeweler, painted De-
voc, ,and says it goes further-no partic-
ulars.
Mr.. John Hanna, grocer, thought it
expensive before he bought 1t; brought
back nearly half of his paint, and said it
was the cheapest job he ever had.
Mrs. Bowman reports universal salts
faction. So much for q cheap paint

Yours truly,
