say that a worklngman, under
modern conditions, becomes at an
early age valueless. He has kept
a record of all accidents that have

Every time dcy muffs er ball.

The "big head" is a popular way of expressing common and very frequent ailment. It arises from various sources, but the real foun- dation is a lack of sense. A little money developes it in some people few good clothes give it to others !; a little office, where a chance is given to exercise a little authority is often the cause of it, while others get it having little better job than their associates. The truth is NO sensible person gets the "big head. /" The one who becomes stuck up and stiff necked from sources of every kind is weak in the intellectual caliber. Exchange.

First, those who go out of town to do their trading; second, those who are opposed to improvements; third those who prefer a quiet town to one of push and business; fourth, those who imagine they own the town; fifth, those who deride pub lic-spirited men; sixth, those who oppose movements not originating with themselves; seventh, those who oppose every movement that does not appear to benefit them; eighth, those who seek to injure the credit or reputation of their neighbors.

Did you ever count the words in a column of newspaper? There are over a thousand words in column. Suppose you sit down and write one thousand words on one subject and another thousand and another until you have written about fifteen thou sand words. Try it and see if it is right easy. Keep that gait up for a month. Then chase local item all over town and after you have secured the facts all right condense them in a few lines--an hours work that can be read in q few seconds. Do this for a dozen items that seem insignificant after they are printed, but which you know are important, then have the items criticised and inaccuracies pointed out to you when it is too late to correct them. Oh yes, it's dead easy to conduct a newspaper.

We like to see a man provide something for his family after he is gone, but the average boy is better off if not left too much property.
