Bu.iness Advice

Bu-iness Advice.
Let every stroke tell
Accuracy is invincible.
Ability is measured by deeds.
Never try to teach experience.
Sincerity is the backbone of success.
Folly aud failure are the best chums.
Enthusiasm is one of the world great
est forces.
The man who only thinks cuts him
self off from other men.
Horse sense often is developed by the
spur of the moment.
1t is better to tell the truth about
ones business effectively than to exag-
gerate.
A happy disposition must be natural
or cultivated it can't be bought.
1t is foolish plan to think you know
more than your fellow man.
Convictions in business without facts
for proof can seldom convince.
Misfit men are great deal more
numerous than right men in right
places. Time spent in fruitless labor is
time wasted.
It's the steady, vigilant fighting with
every ounce of strength given to every
minute of play that wins the game Of
business-th remnants of commerce.
A mountain is only a large molehill; a
Gibraltar must yield to incessant drip
ping. And it's this steady pushing,
pounding, hammering of ceaseless play
that lands the ball on the right side of
the goal line-and the profits on the
right side of the ledger.

and the ladies' choruses, and the
chorus of police and of pirates in
the second act are especially full of
rich melodies and life.
Five local lodges have kindly con-
scented to loan their costumes and
regalia for this occasion, and conse-
gently the opera will be most beau
tifully costumed, which would other
wise be impossible unless at a great
expense.
No time and work are being spared
to make this opera q success, and
with such an enthusiastic leader as
DR.. Parker, and his associates in the
work, the pirates of Penzance" is
bound to be one of the musical events
of the season.

Had to Pay More Than
Apu0pa EIea hid
Anyone Else Bid.


Lansing, Oct 8.-Candidate Kimmer-
les latest set of queries has set Republi.
cans to laughing. To those who have
been unable to follow the torturous
course of Mr.. Kimmerle's would
further asks, it may be stated that Sat-
urday he addressed communication to
the land commissioners department,
asking about the purchase of state lands
by state officials. While not charging
corruption in any sense, it was evident
he attempted to cast suspicion upon the
deals.
All of the state officials who have
bought land from the state, are just
little chesty over it, and instead of
screening the fact, they have openly
boosted of it, The purpose of the pur-
chase was of course to improve the
barren wastes and put them to some
good use. This, of course, would add
to the states wealth and they can't see
how Mr.. Kimmerle, being a good farm
er with probably farmers itching for
land himself, could find any fault with
this.
On June 90, 1908, Gov. Warner, who
was then secretary of state, purchased
of the state 720 acres of land in Glad
win, county for $500. On Aug. 4 Gov
Warner, Deputy Secretary of State
Charles S. Pierce, Speaker Sheridan F.
Master and James w. Osborne, of Kala-
mazoo, jointly purchased 1 1000 acres of
land in Ogemaw county for 80, S44. On.
Sept 90 they bought $50 acres of land
in Iosco county for $3.50, aud 500
acres in Oscoda for $3.50.
Since 1903 Charles S. Pierce has pur-
chased several thousand acres in Ale-
nae, Iosco and Altoona counties
IF there is an acre Of state land that
have bought and that is worth several
times the amount paid for it, let Mr..
Kimmerle specify" says Deputy Score
tary Of State Pierce
II bought $50 acres in Ogemaw
county ana TOOK otnerS In partnership.
1 paid 81 an acre and as there was
only one bidder the land would have
gone at SO 80 which was afterwards an
nounced as the appraised value had l
not been there to bid. Two years later,
after paying taxes on this land, l
bought go acres adjoining and of the
getting warranty deed That,doesn't
indicate that anyone got bonanza.
1T should be understood that state
lands are never sold except at public
sale, or after they have been offered at
public sale. The buyer is always the
one who is willing to pay more than
anyone else
