Many man who has done much
good work has fallen just short OF sue
cess because some disagreeable thing
lay in his way which he would not
overcome.
A bookkeeper who complained that
he was not advanced as rapidly as he
thought he deserved to be had IT.,
pointed out to him that his handwrit-
ing was bad. Practice In handwriting
was repugnant to him, and he remains
ed in the minor position.
Many man falls because he refuses
to do the small things, to patti
emily look after annoying little
details, and these mount up the final
reckoning and some day form barrier
against his further progress.
He who defers an unpleasant duty
does it twice. Anticipation Of 1t may
become a continued torture. 1t Is wise
to be done with it in the first place
and then contemplation of it becomes
a pleasure.
The undone task, resting upon your
head, weighs you down and holds you
back, The well-finished one, beneath
your feet, raisos you up and helps you
forward.
The road to success il rough one.
Flowers bloom at the wayside, 1t is
rue, but he who would get on must
roll the stones out of his way irst and
10 restfully among the flowers after
ward. Some how or other ii seems
that the hard things are the impor-
t ant things. Maybe it is becalsc theJ
are hard and sometimes left undone
that their Importance appears.
A single little bolt may not seem
very important to great locomotive,
until is missing from its place.
II you have not met with the sue
cess you think your eff ,rts merit, do
not sit down to groan and rail against
fate, but just quietly cast about for Il .
disagreea,lc ps rts of your work from
which you ii4ye shrunk. There you
will find your point Of weakness.
You may not attach much inpor-
lance to these things you shirk frsm.
But you can never know how your
neglect of them has changed the eur
rent of your life. Ycu may know that
you have failed Of pronounced success,
but never know just why.

HER GOOD NAME.
That's Missouri's Fairest and
Dearest Possession.

One of the big features of the
State Fair at Sedalia last week
was the dedication of the live.
stock pavilion by Gov. Folk. For
mer Lieut.. Gov. Coleman intro.
duced him. The governor. re-
ferred to the splendid record the
state had won along agricul-
tural lines, declaring it to be one
of the fairest in the federal sister
hood, the garden spot of the I'm
ion."
A single Missouri county," he
said, produces more corn in a
year than all the New England
states, and on one Missouri farm
last year there grew more corn
than was raised in the states of
Utah, Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
Montana, Rhode Island, Wyoming
and Nevada combined" "
He spoke at some length Of law
and order, telling of the reforma-
tions which had been made in the
matter of gambling and the illegal
sales of liquor. He spoke in praise
of the livestock pavilion and the
credit it reflected upon the state.
closing with the declaration that
however great Missouri is in nat
ural resources, however potent in
material achievements and how.
ever brilliant in her accomplish
ments in the various fields of hu-
man arts aud usefulness, her fair
est and best possession is her ow n
good name"
A campaign for pure food legis-

A Divorce Case Which Was TO
Have Been Tried in Audrain.

The Louisiana Press.J journal
goes into particulars regarding a
divorce suit between former Au.
drain people, as follows:
The case Of Charles Hardin Nc.
Pike VS.. Restora McPike for di-
vorce pending in the circuit court
of Audrain county, was settled
Friday by Mr. McPike paying his
wife $4 900 in full settlement of
all aIimony.
This ends what promised to be
one of the most interesting and
complicated divorce suits that has
been pending in this section of
Missouri for a long while. Mr..
McPike and Mrs. McPike, who
formerly was Miss Restora Hugh
lett of Pike county, were married
in the city of st. Louis in August
of the year 1904, and moved to
Vandalia where they resided until
sometime in June or July, 1906.
They separated at that time and
Mrs. McPike went to st. Louis,
where in July, she instituted suit
for divorce; but, before process
was issued and served, Mr.. Nc
Pike instituted suit for divorce in
the circuit court of Audrain coun-
ty, and service was had upon his
wife before the process issued in
the wife's case was served on Mr..
McPike.
Aside from the alimony, the
main question in the case was as
to the residence of the respective
parties, and whether or not the
circuit court Of Audrain county or
st. Louis had jurisdiction to hear
and determine the cause.
A great number of witnesses
were subpoenaed and the trial
promised to last several days; but,
after the case was called, and trial
begun, the parties agreed upon the
permanent alimony, and Mrs. Nc
Pike filed a cross-bill and was
granted a divorce on it.
Mrs. McPike, as said before,
was a Miss Hughlett, the daugh-
Ger of James Hughlett, and Mr..
McPike the son of Mr.. Aaron
McPike and one of the wealthiest
of the young men of the county of
Audrain.
Mrs. McPike was represented by
Judge George Robertson of Mex
leo, and Charles Hardin McPike
by the firm of Pearson & Pearson
of Louisiana.
