A P1T1FuL OBJECT.
[Afton Star-Enterprise.


There is no one quite so pitiful
or so much of an object of charity as
he who nurses his misfortunes and
spends the energies of his waking
hours in devising ways and means
of getting even. The bitterness and
agony which he engenders in his
own soul when contemplating revenge
on someone else, is far more CALLING
and bitter to himself than any torture
he can inflict on another. To think
mean thoughts makes one mean. We
never Yet saw a person who was con-
tinually getting even" with someone,
regardless of the provocation, who was
happy in even the feeblest sense of the
term. Even a victory gained over a foe
is embittered and spoiled by the dread
and fear of what form of revenge the
enemy will take.

FUsSING ABOUT LITTLE THINGS
lGrundy Democrat1

L.
People make a lot of trouble for
themselves by making a fuss about
little things. A hen hunting for worms
in naighbor's garden, a calf going
estray on a farm, or borrowed mess
Of potatoes, many times starts a quar-
rel that sets an entire neighborhood by
the ears
There are too many people who, tho
they may not be looking for trouble,
ind more trouble than is good for
them. and the origin of most of what
they find comes from an over sensitive
imagination. The chronic trouble find
ers believe that others are lying awake
nights Matching schemes for getting
the best Of them. They are always oil
the defensive and are ever ready to
open UP hostilities upon the least prov
ocaiion. They have read of the Jones
county calf case, and they line them
selves with the Jones side.
This life is normally TOO short to
spend most of it fussing with ones
neighbors. Fussing has never made
any one rich or happy II has never
sent any one to heaven, but it has put
many in q premature hell If YOU have
The habit. and you aren't so far gone
that you don't know you have it, cut it
out. An old maid who has lost her
last chance and a setting hen are the
only two things that have an excuse to
be fussy.

The fire departments were called out
shortly before noon today to answer
an alarm turned in from Chase, avenue,
the blaze having been under the bridge
on Garrison creek. The fire laddies
made quick work of the flames, with
but slight damage to the bridge. 1t
is thought spontaneous combustion
was the cause, as considerable rubbish
which accumulated at the gun club
shoot had been thrown near the struc-
ture. Today's alarm was the third
within a week that took the depart
ments to the bridge, there having been
two alarms a week ago today.
