THRIFT AND ECONOMY.
Right Thinking Necessary to Great est Success In Every Field of
 Endeavor.

Economy Is one of the essentials to success. It matters not how great ,one's earnings may be. If there is no pennies laid by, there will be no counting of dollars to your credit From childhood children should be taught lessons of thrift and the value of saving. There is a difference be- tween economy and stinginess. There lis an excess which defeats the aim,
 That economy which prevents the farmer from spending money to prop erly house his stock during the win- ter, Is paradoxical. It is a saving of dollars and the loss of dollars by the saving. That so-called economy which prevents the consuming of fuel in winter, which results in a cold house and sickness in the family, and perhaps death. is niggardly stingi- ness, which is criminal. It is the saw ing of few dollars in the coal bill, and paying perhaps hundred or more to the doctor or the undertaken. There is no economy in cheap things gen. erally. bit of machinery that is needed about the farm should be the best. A cheap. poor moving machine from some mail order house may break down when 1t is needed the most, and result Is the loss of tons of hay several times the value of good machine. Poor articles wear out rapidly, and are likely to give out at time when most needed, and are a continual source of expense A poor breed of stock is another Illustration Poor. bony horses eat more than we'll bred ones, and tho latter always find a ready sale, while the raw-bones cannot be disposed of at any price. The same with hogs, sheep, and all classes of domestic stock. A poor lot of ami mals should be gotten rid of as soon as possible. They are expensive and it is poor economy to keep them.
 It is in looking after the saving of penny and being blind to the dollar that could be gained that is the trou- ble with many. Savages have no idea of economy. They cannot fore go a small pleasure for a greater one O uttiC ldltuGT IL IS Cue dDlllIy to think out these matters that makes the civilized man superior to the bar barian. Think Don't get tired of using the reasoning brain that good Providence has given you The secret of knowledge is in thinking, and the power to make comparison One of the drawbacks of many schools is the teaching, the cramming of rules and facts without combining with them the importance of cause and eff feet. Teach one to think, and he will soon be a person of no mean knowl- edge. It is the thinker who wins in life, and on the farm, in the workshop, in the store, anywhere and every where, where brains are needed, you will find it is the active. keen and careful thinker who forges to the front.

SAPS LOCAL WEALTH.
Systems That Draw from Circulation Money That Should Be Kept Home.

That city, town or community from of the people are sent elsewhere is destined to go backward and take a place in the rear of progressive com munities. It will never have the full quota of wealth that is due it, and that it should have. It Is the profits, the amounts that represent the sur plus above cost of production of prod. ucts, and the earnings of the laborer above his expenses of living, and the legitimate profits of the merchants and others in business that makes com. enunity wealthy. When these earnings are diverted to foreign places their local tax-paying and up-building pow CT is destroyed and the places re- ceiying the money acquire a benefit If you desire to see the greatest measure of prosperity in your own town, keep every dollar you can In circulation at home. The bank cor poration or individual that has its ex- istence elsewhere and has mortgage on your farm or other property, en- joys means of making you bear portion of the burden of taxes of an- other section than your own. It mat ters not by what means your money reaches outside your own bailiwick, it results in the same evil. You are helping those who pay none of the cost of maintaining the institution of your own town and county.

Raising Turkeys.

If you do not wish your turkeys to disturb your neighbors you had better raise them with hens. They will some times get over the boundary line then but are not as apt to. Hen turkeys will wander and you will have to go after them quite early or they will be settled for the night and you can not find them.

THE CITY LIGHTS.

Some observant people claim that the
arc lights for street purposes are MOI
TUNED on as early as they might be.
The Alexandria Electric Company, in
Mr.. e. G. MaudeviIle's bid as read in
Council aud the ordinance and contract,
aoccify that the lights shall be OF the
latest type, snd of 1000 candle powell
This is 500 more tnan the Schu5 lei | ga's
when they were placed in 1889, @hich
of course were not 81 strong when taken
down in February last. The Alexandra
Electric Compqny's agreement with the
city, it is said, provided that the lights
shall burn call night and every night
from sunset to SUNRISE" but It is claimed
that it is considerably past sunset when
The current is turned on. The necessity
for promptly turning on the lights at
sunset ia not pressing, "but it so nomi-
mated in the bond, "snd if the obligation
is not lived up TO then a rebate is due
the city, and the matter can be settled
nv those representing the Alexandria
Electric Company and the commit
tee on light representing the City
Council. This committee Is considering
matters cover by the report OF Mr..
Philander Belts, who was employed as
an expert to report on the plant and
service of the Alexandria Electric Com
pany. The sun sets about 6 o'clock this
evening and rises about 6 o'clock tomor-

MINISTER ATTACKS ELDERS.

~
Critical and uDsympaihetic elders
cause a lack of candidates for the Cnris'
tian ministry, and day of reckoning
IL coming for those who pay ministers
starvation wages" said the Rev. John +
Csrson. of the Central Church, of Brook
lvp at The meeting of the Lsckawanns
Presbytery at West Pittston, Pa, Tues
dav In the course of his address re
said
"Msny big.souled men In the Chris
tan ministry are hurt by the unsYm'
,,athetic and critical attitude Of some oil
the elders. Would God that this mes
sage might go out to all the elders of the
church throughout the United States.
This attitude on the part Of some OF the
elders is one of the reasons why there are
not more candidates for the Christian
ministry. Ministers should have no
domination from the pew; should &C
knowledge no master but Christ. Any
man who tried to dominate In my church
would 20 out, or 1 would. Ny heart
bleeds for some OF the faithful ministers
who are living upon starvation wages 10
this great wealthy Presbyterian Church,
and they are meeting these conditions
and bearing them for ChrisPs sake, but
some day there will come q day oil
reckoning for those who have misuSed
them.U
