Is 1t True of You?

Young man, did you ever put
your arms around your dear old
mother who has loved and cared
for YOU and tell her that you love
her and are grateful for the tears
she has shed and the prayers she
has Offered for YOU? She may
think that you love her without
YOU assuring her that you d.,
but ii costs you little effort to tell
her and your words may bring
more Joy and sunshine to her
heart than you ever dreamed Of.
Some young men will pay two
dollars for a livery rig to ride
three hours with seventy-tlve
cent girl and tell her all the nice
;hings they can think Of that arr
true. anu more that are not true,
and don't spend five cents or five
minutes in year to show their
old mother that they care any
thing for her.

Who Pays the Advertising Bills?

An unknown exchange asks:
did you ever think about it
WHO pays for the advertising Of
merchants and other business
men? Not the advertiser, for the
cost is returned to him two fold
in increased profits. Not the pur-
chaser, for he buys cheaper trcon
tie advertiser and has bette-
assortment and fresher goods to
select from. Who, then, really
pays the advertising bills? The
non-advertiser of course. A jus,
proportion of the money he loses
by his lack of initiative and en-
terprise finds way eventually to
the printer, to advance the cause
Of education and the interests Of
the community. Who pays for
that advertising which attracts
The people OF this town to other
towns? The home merchant not
only loses THAI trade, but in that
loss pays for the other fellows
advertising. Isn't it plain? The
"storekccper' is a relic of the
past; the merchant is an active
being of today

Good Sentiment.

The following letter from the
pen OF H. ]. HOLMES, cx-president
OF the Colorado Editorial associa-
ton and editor of The Avalanche
at Glenwood Springs, explains
itself:
"Whcn are we to have a con-
vcntion OF has beens." You have
taken up good work and |
hope you will stick to it no mat
ter how many times they knock
you down. 1t is hard to be licked
on the streets by an undesirable
person and | have been there but
| have never shown the white flag
and | hope you will never do it,
Stand up to them, old man, and
let them. know thai. YOU are
mountain, tho you arc only I35
avoirdupois.
"The man or individual who
ticks the Editor has something
coming and you want to be sure
to give them that something as
long as you can yield a pen. You
are right and you will surely come
out on top
Yours respectfully,

Here 1t Is.

A patent medicine advertise
ment reads thus: when leth-
argic feeling pervades your sys-
TEN, when you have a disinclina-
ton to move about, when you
have all adherence to exercise,
your liver is inactive" This wlll
be glad tidings to many people
who have always thought they
were lazy when they felt that
way. Now they will know that
it was only their liver was mac
tive, and this explains, in great
measure, why SO many strong
looking, able-bodied men are to
be found hanging around certain
street corners when work can
easily be had-of course, it's not
"laziness" they are suffering
from, but "a torpid or inactive
liver what ails them. We are
glad that this quack medicine ad.
has supplied us with this lucid
explanation, and now our Ian
guage can be less expressive and
our vials of charity overflow with
sympathy. inactive liver!' Oh,
happy thought! What a world
OF worry that blessed expression
will lift from many minds.

The Underhow.

Honesteaders out on the plains
Are praying for rain and snow,
hat they may plow their desert
lands
Until they strike the underflow.
Merchants can build skyscrapers,
Their merchandise to stow,
But skyranchers will have to ex-
cavate
To catch the underhow.
Jack and Tom are digging a well
They say it's dry hard soil,
But in case they find no under
flow,
Have hopes OF striking oil.
They are down now about sixty
And full forty more to go;
They'll have at least drinking
water,
When they strike the under
flow.
Sheep men can feed on the des-
ert plain
Water at the spring or tank;
Live at ease, go where they
please,
And have money in the bank.
They have employed night guards
To protect their many sheep,
While homcstcaders, at midnight
Are rustling fresh meat.
We admire Mr.. Campbell's truth
fulness
OF this so-called farming dry,
But they will all come out like
this o
In the sweet bye and bye.
Rabbits, prairie dogs and rattle
snakes
Are coming out the ground,
Headed for the Chalk Bluffs,
To colonize a new town.
Emigrants are coming by train
loads
To take the precious land,
But it's only a matter of time.
Till they'll be going East by
hand.
But there is coming a resur:ec-
ton,
When they will all arise and SC
Back to their old eastern homes,
Saying, TO H with the un-
dcrnoW.'

Noe, the sheep herder, Carr,

Comparisons are odious, but
back where | came from mer-
chants were not permitted to lit
ter up the sidewalks and streets
and maintain feed yards in the
center OF town. Here it seems
to be the rule. 1t seems queer.
In a town where there are so
many unlicensed dogs it seems
strange that merchants don't
place their groceries above high
water mark. The irrigation of
box OF canned goods might not
be SO bad, but just think of it
whcr it happens to be sack OF
flour or a package OF beet su-
gar. 1t seems queer.
