THE VILLAGE KNOCKER.

The Joplin, (Moo Globe gets un- der the hide of the chronic village pessimist after this vigorous fash fashion: Taken ill it's entirety, no city in the country can boast a more loyal citizenship than Joplin; and vet there is still to be heard at times the vapid mouthings of some cantankerOus old pessimist, who for over a generation has been proclaiming that the city is over playing itself and must soon suffer the consequences of it's progressive ness. It is this class of citizen who failed to buy corner lots for $2O0 some twenty years ago because they were too high. Ten years later they wouldn't buy the same lots for $2,OO0 each because they were still too high Now they won't buy them for $20,00O each because they haven't the price. But there are people with both the price and the confidence who are buying them. Some day they will be sold again for twice $20,00O, and our pessi- mestic old citizen will still be patch ing his old clothes and proclaim. ing "they're too high.''

A KIND OF HOMILY ON SUCCESS
 IN PARAGRAPHS.


 The little paragraphs set out be- low are taken from a recent issue of the Louisville Herald. and if read and digested in the order in which they come will prove to bs uniquely worded and logacilly ar ranged kind of homily on the sub- ject of Success.
 They cannot fail to entertain and impress the reader
 Keeping everlasting at 1t, with an ideal in view, is what counts in this big world.
 It doesn't much matter what it is you are doing-only keep at it. {, The shoemaker who stops at the half-soie never grows rich.
 The builder who grows weary at the half-story never builds sat isfactory roof.
 The lawyer whose heart is not in his work wins only by accident. The plumber who mends the pipe in your house in neither honest to himself nor his patron if he "stuffs' the job.
 The minister who gives you platl- tudinous sermons will fill a medi- ocre sphere.
 And so on up or down the line of trades and professions. Thorough ness. with the high ideal always in view is the price of success.
 What is success?
 It is the elixir of life. It is that sense of triumph.

 An American had sealed Ameri ca's highest mountain and planted there Americas flag. Twenty min utes after that was accomplished the brave men began the descent. That was success, the same sue cess that enabled Peary to get al most within striking distance of th' north pole.
