All business men want success but
not every one secures 1t. The man
who sits idly by his shop door waiting
for a chance customer will never know
the joy of success, neither will he who
declines to acquaint the public with
the character of the goods he keeps
on his shelves. IN these days Of fierce
competition every business man must
keep abreast of his rivals in advertis-
ing and other up to date methods if be
would spell the magic word-suooess.

Spoons.

The origin of the spoon is uncertain.
It must have been invented at very
ancient date, for it Is found among
people that have never come into con-
tact with civilization. The necessity
of having some implement for dipping
water seems to have led first to the
invention of the calabash or the use
of the cocoanut shell and later on to
the spoon,

A Valuable Work.

Charles Howard Welch, one of
the editors of the Mount Union
Times, has just completed his
tory of Mt. Union, Shirleysburg
and Shirley township, which
proves to be an able work and
highly commendable to the au-
thor. This history was run
through successive issues of the
Mount Union Times, starting last
sum mer aud concluding a few
weeks ago. Demands of many
to have the history for preserva-
ton, have obliged Mr.. WEIGH to
publish the work in a volume.
The book Is now off the press,
and is a handsome production.
1t contains 7S5 pages, has In it
290 illustrations and portraits,
800 biographical sketches, and
the slze OF the book Is 9 by 6t
inches. The work Is bound in
dark green and beautifully stamp
ed in gold. The price of the kook

Mules More Profitable Than Horses.

mules more PfOIltdDie lndu HOTSes.
Ten reasons why ia r m s
should raise mules.
1. They can be raised cheaper
than any other stock.
2. Will go into market sooner
than horses.
3. Can be handled and worked
at two year old. If properly
handled will do as much work as
a four-year. old colt and be the
better for it.
4. Are less liable to contract
diseases than the horse. Pasture
a number of colts through the
grazing season, and you will find
plenty of blemishes at feeding
time. Mules prove the contrary,
and have few if any, blemlshes
and their value Is not decreased
by blemishes as are horses.
5. They lnstictlvely avoid holes
and dangerous places. A pair of
runaway mules seem to run
more from sport than fright and
generally wind up safely. A
frightened horse seems to go
crazy and dashes into anything.
Mules seem naturally to avoid an
obstacle. His steady nerves en-
abling him to live to greater age
than the horse.
6. The mule can stand heat
better than the horse, try a pair
OF each to your binder some sui
try day, and you will be IN favor
of the mules. Are not easy to
sweat, are steady, and can be re.
lied upon.
2. They stand more abuse and
hardship than a horse, but are
very sensitive and sensible, and
respond quickly to kind treat.
ment by docility and gentleness.
8. The profit IN mule raising Is
their quick growth, and are
marketable at three years old.
A horse colt can not be sold to
advantage until five years old, so
the price of two years feeding
and handling are saved.
8. There is always steady de-
mand for good mules. A buyer
will always handle them. II
there are plenty of mules raised
in section of country, there will
be plenty OF buyers. Mule buy
ers are not going where there are
no mules to buy.
10. The reader will probably
say, Why are not more mules
raised ? Simply because In most
localities there are no jacks to
breed TO. Good mules cannot be
raised unless you breed to q good
jack. Gibson, at Wells Tannery,
has a good one. The opportunity
is yours; will you take advantage

Fanny Crosby.

Fanny Crosby, Americas pest
loved hymn writer, was ninety
years old on March Oath. She Is
the blind religious song writer,
who has endeared herself to
the Christian world. She was
born in Putnam county, N. Y,
and when about six weeks old she
went blind. Her father died be-
fore she was year old, and
through the zeal of a Christian
mother, she was led despite her
affection, to the highest and best
that this earthly life could afford.
MISS Crosby was married to Mr..
Van Alstyne, also blind, who sew
eral years ago departed this life.
At present, Fanny Crosby re-
sides In Bridgeport, Conn.,, and
Is well, and happy. She has made
her life truly a life of usefulness,
in that through her songs, she
has brought many souls to Christ.
In all, she has probably written
1000 hymns, some of which are:
"Rescue the Perishlng," "I am
Thine o Lord" Blessed Assur.
ance" and "Safe in the Arms o.
Jesus" She lives today, await
ing the summons to enter the
life beyond A life of such vast
usefulness as hers, will certainly
have many stars in her crown.
