When Seth Bullock presents the
presidents secretary with another
broncbo, the secretary will doubtless
take the precaution to let the presi-
dent ride him first.
The Rev. DR. Muckley, of Kansas
City, advises the young woman not

her costly presents. Some earnest
but impecunious young man put
Doc up to this.
The coal barons do not look with
favor on the workers proposition to
have the Cancellation board arbitrate
the strike. There is too much coal
piled up that they expect to see
marketed at high prices.
The Boston district attorney has
just rescued from jail little boy
who was serving thirty-day SEN
tence for throwing a SNOWFALL at a

dignity Of the great man was SO dis

Fitzgerald, of New York, resents
the influence of the president in leg
islation and is fearful that he become
the car OF America, but so long as

Boys, business men Of your town
know you better than your parents.
Their eyes are on you when you are
least aware. You may slip away
from your mother, you may dupe
and deceive your friends, you may
selude the watchful eye of your
teacher, you may triae with the con-
fidence of your Sunday school super
intendent, but you can't fool the
business men in your town when
they have position to be filed.
A man may use the mole on the
back OF his neck for collarbutton;
he may ride freight train to save
cents a mile; he may light the

he may stop his watch at night to
save wear; use period instead of
semicolon to save ink; and pasture
his grandmother's grave to save hay;
but man of this kind is a scholar
and gentleman compared to man
who will take a newspaper and when
asked to pay for it put it back in
postoffice marked refused"
We love the man with the red
rose on his tongue, the man who
sees the boys dirty face, but men,
tons his bright eyes, who notices
your shabby coat but praises your
studious habits, the man who sees
all faults but is quick to praise, slow
70 blame. We like TO meet q man
whose smiles will brighten up dead
ness, whose voice il full of music OF
the birds, whose handshake is an
inspiration and his "God bless you"
a benediction. He makes you for
get you troubles as the ravens dis
NAL croak is forgotten whom the
wook thrush sings. There Is plenty
Of trouble here and we need not
increase it. There is plenty Of
dying ahead Of time
