Rich Without Money.

Many man is rich without
money. Thousands of them with
nothing in their pockets and
thousands without even pocket
are rich. A man born with a good,
sound constitution, good stomach,
a good heart and good limbs and a
pretty good headpiece is rich. Good
bones are better than gold, tough
muscles than silver and nerves that
flash fire and carry energy to every
function are better than houses and
lands. It is better than landed
estate to have had the right kind of
a father and mother. Good breeds
and bad breeds exist among men as
really as among cattle and horses.
Education may do much to check
evil tendencies or to develop good
ones, but it is a good thing to in
herit the right proportion of facul-
ties to start with. That man is rich
who has flavor of wit and fun in
his composition. The hardest thing
to get along with in this life is a
mans own self. A cross, selfish
fellow, Responding and complain
ing fellow, timid, care-burdened
man, these are all born deformed
on the inside. Their feet may not
limp, but their thoughts do. A
man of fortune on the brink of the
grave would gladly give every dol
lar to obtain longer lease of life.

4 Questionable Improvement.

Doubtless the cutting down of the
street grade on Hospital Hill at the
corner of Wyoming and Oak was
ordered with d view to the improve
ment of that section of the city, but
from an unbiased standpoint we
should not deem the work thus far
done of a nature to enhance prop
erty values or make pedestrians ex-
ceedingly grateful. Should the side
walks be put down to the street
grade, however, thereby voiding
the steep inclines made through
work recently done, the improve
ment would probably be entitled to
receive greater degree of appreci-
alton from the foot traveller wear
ing unspiked shoes.
