entire expense, including telegraph
tolls and travelling expenses, Of per-
sons whom Collins might name as
witnesses by whom be could prove
the statements lie made. He said that
he would spend all the tine neces-
sary, if it took all the entire time
left in the campaign, to run this
matter down, and would spend what.
ever sum was necessary to enable
Mr.. Collins to confront him with any
evidence he could gather to prove

Few business men have more to contend with than an editor. The oonly means the editor has of mak- ing living for himself and family is by selling space in the columns of his paper. His newspaper columns are the same to him as the shelves of dry goods are to the merchant. No one thinks of asking the merchant to give him the dry goods from his shelves, but few they are who hesitate to ask the editor to give them a few columns free in his paper.

The "big head" is a popular way of expressing a common and very frequent ailment. It arises from various sources. but the real foundation is lack of sense. A little money develops 1t in some people; a few good clothes gives it to others; a little office. where a chance is given to exercise little authority. is often the cause of it. while others get it having a little better job than their associates. The truth is no sensible person gets the "big head" The ones who become stuck up and stiff-necked from sources of any kind. are weak in the intellectual caliber.
