Don't pay any attention to the
fellow who owns property and
refuses TO do his part; for he has
been with US always and will be
here when Gabriel executes his
final solo.
II the world were a cow, this
kind of q man would not even
occupy the position of a tail--un-
less he happened to get hung on
as a cocklebur. He is q man Of
poverty. pain and sorrows. II q
church or a school house Is to be
built. he is too poor to help his
neighbors in the enterprise. IL
a widow needs help he has his
doubts about the worthiness Of
charity. II a grave Is to be dug
the pains in his back prevent
him assisting in the task.
At q public dinner he is to be
found at the first table partak-
ing of the dainties that were not
purchased with any money he
contributed; and when he leaves
he carries with him the choice
leavings. He sometimes belongs
10 the church; and IL he does. he
has heard that religion is free
and without price, for no contri-
button box ever gave forth the
jingle of his coin. II he ever
prays his prayer is like this: "Oh,
Lord, bless me and my wife, my
son John and his wife, US four
and no more"
When he dies the world con-
cedes it to be his best act when
his porky soul goes down the
greasy slide.
Charity never knew him and
benevolence is not one of his
atoms.
He may accumulate wealth by
being "chincy" and wanting, but
it will do him no good for he is
too stingy to enjoy it. He is a
cocklebur in the tail Of the COM
monwealth and a chigger on the
hide. He is q scab on the skin
Of the world and q wart on the
back Of progress. Don't count
him as one of the community,
but place him in the column Of
liabilities, for we must carry him
along as so much rubbish. Don't
try to reform him, for you had as
well argue usefulness to a hog.
Let him alone before your gorge
Of disgust rises and dispells the
thoughts of goodness. Elk.

Shun cheap pcrfumcry as you would

more or less expensive, but one needs
but drop of it at a time and it lasts

A good way to get the delicate sug-
aestion of scent which is to be desired
is by means of the perfumed bath.
1t should always be as a dainty ac-
cesSion to immaculate cleanliness. new

Wherefore, highly scented powders
should not be used to overcome strong
pcrspirtiOn. Scertless ones and contin-

When possible the scent of real flow
ers should be used by having them in
the room or wearing them. if only a
