Advice to Candidates,

Keep sober at all times. Invent
no stories against opponents, but
rather speak well of them. Don't
paomise TO help any one but your.
self. IL you are slandered don't
spend time and words in denying il.
IL the truth is told about you treat
10 in the same manner. Don Z make
promises that you never intend to
fulfill. Don't tell the people II elect
ed you will work for half price. for
you cant afford it. Don't shake
hands too much, for thereby the com.
mon voter will smell q rat. Becheer-
full on all occasions, for then the peo.
pie will think you don't care, and IL
you are elected they will conclude
you will be q clever fellow To do
business with. Avoid all jealousy
and put no trust in flesh, for IL is
weak, and promises are as easily
broken as made. Never loao money
or indorse notes with the expecta.
tion Of securing votes or influence
thereby. There is q class of drones
and dead beats who make q practice
OF borrowing Of every candidate ia
the field,-E1chanQe.
