Keep An Account.

1t is impossible to conduct farH
on business principles without keep
ing an account. Many farmers run
their farms in loose manner, moi
knowing what they are making OF
the work that is profitable or un,
profitable. This is especially true
in regard TO sales Of produce from
week to week and the buying OF
small necessary articles.
The farmer as we'll as the mer.
chant should keep an accurate ac-
count of every cent paid cut and
every cent paid in. Looking care
fully after the incoming and outs
going cents, in practical manner
will greatly assist in keeping the
mortgage off the farm. We are
told to "rnn not into debt, either
for wares sold or muney borrowed;
be content 10 want things that are
not absolutely necessary rather than
run up the SCORE" Many of us
fully realize that he "who goeth a
borrowing goeth sorro wing" and
vet sometimes it seems that we can
not avoid going into debt. When
this is true we should keep an ac'
count of everything ourselves
"creditov have better memories
than debtors," and all are liable to
make mistakes, so let us be known
as the farmer who always keeps al
account. Some farmers do the
same work, and raise the same crop
every year and wonder why they are
not a success financially. BY keep
ing an accurate account they will
find that their expense of doing this
work has been greater than the in
como, and they could see wherein
some change could be made that
would yield profit. The grocer's,
the merchants, the Doctors and all
other bills creep up much faste,
than We think, unless we are keep
ing an account. Ii no account is
kept we are not inclined to think OF
the bills until we are reminded 1t is
payday, and "creditors are great
observers of set days and times,
but if we are keeping our accounts
we are daily reminded Of, expcndi-
lures, and If we are spending more
than we can afford, we can in some
manner contrive to call halt.
Any common note book can be
used, and the income and expenses
should be noted Immediately. NJ
merchant would trust to memory
and jot down items Of such Impor.
tance once a week. Date each item
and ascertain at the close of each
day your financial standing. Look
at the condition of things in fair
and square manner, and make a
great effort to meet each bill when
due, and remember that the 'pay.
ing of debts is, next to the grace of
God, the best means in the world
to deliver you from a thousand
temptations to sin and vanity" >

Republican National Convention.

The National Republican Con.
vention was held in Chicago las,
Thursday, and nominated Theod ore
Roosevelt for President snd Chas.
W. Fairbanks, Of Indiana, for Vice.
President of the United States.
It was not to be compared with any
former convention of the party In
later years, in the matter of attend,
ance and enthusiasm. Unlike the
Conventions that nominated Har.
rison or Mckinley, when the cities
were filled with marching clubs,
banners and bands. A stranger in
Chicago Thursday would hardly
have known that National Con.
ventlon of one of the greatest par.
ties in this country was in session
in that CITY. 1t was cut and dried
affair, and the leaders and great
orators listened to their own
speeches. The leading. feature Of
the convention was the platform,
and as it had been predicted the
"stand spatters" had it all their own
way. And what was most slgnif.
cant about the platform, was that it
bad already been prepared by
Lodge, Of Massachusetts,
and was of the high protection
order, in the interest of the trusts.
Reciprocity is favored for non com>
petative articles alone. A revision
of the tariff will not be considered
under any circumstances.

The Woodville Republican says:
"Dissention, created by jealousy or
dictated by covetousness, are
as fatal to the best interests of a
community as the venom of a rat
tier is to humsn being. The
aphorism ssa house divided against
itself cannot stand" Is as true in the
business world as IN the church
world. Citizens who have at heart
the welfare of the section in which
they live, should subserve their per.
sonaI dlslikes to the welfare of all
and in business transactions do unto
others as they would have others do
unto them. If all men would abide
by the injunction Let him without
SIN cast the FIRST stone,' there would
be no use to import even pebbles. !"

Vanity OF vanities. all is vanity
And IL man tries to conceal his little
yanlties, does not vaunt them, does

and refuses to take II for granted that
he is \ vain creature. should It be ac-
counted unto him for righteousness
He IL vain all the same.
II q short woman wishes to look tall
she will have high heels on her shoes
and go her way quite needless OF the
scorn that ia being hurled at her by
men who are wearing high pads under
their own heeIs-within their boots.
This Is Just the point of difference.
A woman does not attempt to deceive,
a man does.
All the world knows that a woman
wears corset, thing of bone and
steel, but a man pretends even to him
self that he would have nothing to dc
with any such thing. He calls what
he wears band, although every year
It grows wider. and is more carefully
shaped.
Nowadays the band must curve in
nicely at the waist and expand well
as 1t comes over the hips, where little
pads Of wadding are placed to accen-
tuate these points.
There IL no end to the padding

would deceive the most experienced of
