POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Your sons probably please you as
we'll as you pleased your father.
If you don't look carefully after your
own affairs, who do you imagine will:
A good many people try to administer
forgiveness and punishment at tne
same time.
About all some men get for their
efforts to be digniied is a reputation
Of having the swelled head.
The greatest triumph for a boy Is
the privilege Of being accepted as an
equal By boys somewhat older than
himself.
Don't begin to wonder how other
people can afford so many things that
YOU can't afford. That is big step IN
the direction Of growing envious and
sour.
We have noticed that people who DO
exactly as they please, whether their
friends like it or not, get along aoout
as we'll as those who are always trying
to please.-Atchison Globe.
