QUIT WHEN THROUGH.

Quit when you are through.
While many crops are lost by not
receiving sufficient work, there
are some destroyed by too much
work. A mansion may be ruined
by adding too much to it. The
physician may give too much
medicine and spoil the cure that
he had affected. Many lawyer
has lost his case by talking too
long, and it is sometimes the case
that the good effect of "a splendid
sermon is lost by the preacher not
stopping when he is through.
What ever work you have to do,
if it's honest, if it's right, do it
we'll and don't forget to quit when
you are through.
The Marietta journal. [volume] (Marietta, Ga.) 1866-1909, 1906-08-09

Don't look on the bright>side of
anything. Don't permit yourself
to see good in anyone. Don't
have any charity for your erring
brother or sister. If you have
any of the milk of human kind
ness i'll your heart curdle it in
some way. Believe that al men
and women, too, are liars aud the
truth is not in them. Find fault
with your fellow-neighbor; envy
her; hate her; seek your own ;
scrap if yon don't get it; think
evil: rejoice in iniquity; endure
nothing; believe nothing, and if
you are lot completely miserable
and unhappy it is because you
have not yet quenched the last
vital spark of love in your beng.

There are about eight classes of
town killers; and every town is
afflicted with one or more of them,
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; fourth, those who imagine
they own the town; fifth, those
who deride public spirited men ;
sixth, those who oppose move
ments not originating with them
selves; seventh, those who oppose
every movement that does not ap-
pear to benefit them eighth, those
who seek to injure the credit or
reputation of their neighbor.

Wireless telegraphy is like the
doer of evil in that it prefers
darkness to light. 1t always works
better at night than in daylight.
This peculiar fact is causing some
trouble at the wireless stations
that have been erected north of
the Arctic circle, where there is
continuous day during hale of the
year. 1t seems that the aerial vi
brations are interfered with by the
sunlight, with the result that
there are frequent Interruptions

with wireless apparatus, but when
he strikes the long day with 4, he
may not be able to get out much

This gives her . comical appearance in moving. but she can outpace anything in the yard and has easy work in side-stepping mischiev- ous dogs. Where the one-legged chick shows her keadwork is in scratching. TOT a long time the oneIlegged hen stood by and let the rooster do the scratching. but several days ago she began to practice. balancing by stretching out a wing and using 1t as a crutch. Now she can stand on the stif out-stretched feathers of the wing and dig with single leg.
