UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER,

A minister sometime past in
taking charge of a church said
to the congregation; Nov if ]
should do anything or make any
changes in church matters that
you may not approve, come to
me and tell me about it, and
don't talk to other people about
1t. We will talk it over and
make matters all right. This
is not only a good rule for church
members to adopt, but a good
and safe one for neighbors and
others to adopt.
When gossip starts in a COM
munity It is magnifed and en-
larged upon as it passes from
one to another until mole hill
becomes a mountain and friends
are thereby made enemies when
all could have beeu amicably
adjusted had a proper course
been pursued. We sometimes
misunderstood people and con-
denim them tor things said and
done, when if we would go to
them personally things would
prove quite different from what
we had conceived them to be-
Exchange.

1T isn't often that the Cour-
Ter has a paper refused, but a
calamity of this kind did happen
10 the paper a week or two
back" says the Plant City Cour-
Ter. "A fellow who lives a short
distance out of town returned
his paper marked Refused.
We sent him one more copy of
the paper just to surprise hin
with the fact that the paper did
not suspend publication, a fact
which doubtless caused quite a
shock to his delicately sensitive
nature. We we're not surprised,
on investigation, TO find that
this dissatisfied gentleman was
nearly two years in arrears. 4"

Discussing the question of who
bears the burdens OF taxation,
Editor Eugene Matthews of The
Starke Telegraph says; "We
are told that State Senator
Flournoy of DeFuniak Springs,
after giving the subject of taxa
ton considerable study, has ar
rived at the conclusion that the
poorer class of citizens and the
corporations are bearing more
than their share of the burden
of taxation, while the middle
class escapes much of the burden
that they ought to bear. The
plain, unyarnished truth of the
matter is that pretty much all
of US dodge every cent of taxa
ton that we can. The very poor
man having little to cover up
aud the capitalization of the
corporation being a matter of
public record, they may come
in for more than their share OF
the burden, as Senator Flouruoy
concludes, but the fact remains
that we are a generation Of tax
dodgers and few of us, Indeed,
are without sin. If the zealand
personal property in this State
were returned for taxation at
65 per cent. of actua! value,
the footing would not reach less
than three hundred millions dol

TRAIN THAT BOY.

Give your boy some sort of
training.
Just what you train him in
does not matter so much as that
he receives training, that he
shall early learn to become
amenable to discipline.
Put him IN militia company
where he will learn prompt
obedience; where he will learn
that practice will make him
have better control over his own
muscles, where he will learn the
value of team work with his fel.
low man.
Or see that he belongs to a
good base ball team, where be
will soon learn that discipline of
mind and body, Of temper and
spirit are necessary for the sue.
cess OF his side.
Train him to use his eyes, his
hearing, his muscles. Train him
to think, then train him to act.
One OF the great values of the
popular secret societies is that
when they take in a young man
he is at once bound by certain
rules, which be must obey. He
is taught to go through certain
movements, to recite certain
things and to act in concert with
Others for the advancement of |
the particular society wi b |
which he is affiliated.
Train your boy in habits of
industry, of promptness and of
honesty.
Habit, when once formed, is a
great conservator. We hate to
change our habits, and d good |
habit, once acquired, is almost |
as hard to break as is a bad |
habit,
Have the boy get the habit,
get good one, and he will most
likely keep it all the days Of his
life.
1t is easy to pick out the boy
who has been permitted to come
along into early manhood with
out training.
He is a boy who loafs on the
street corners aud who bas an
aversion to work.
He is the boy who develops
into the furtive eyed, shiftless
young man without a definite
aim in life,
There are too many of that
Kind of boys who are growing
up failures because they were
not properly trained in self
restraint, industry, truthfulness
and sobriety.

care we not facing a famine in

approaching a period when the
necessaries of life will be 50 high
that millions of people with their
scant earnings will not be able to
buy what they need?"
We might with all seriousness
think of it, and ask questions what
is the matter.
Some may think that the great
output Of gold has made money
lose its purchasing power, because
of its being plentiful and cheap,
but the condition Of the money
market does not justify this view,
as the rate of interest will show.

for foodstuffs being unusually
