Never too old to yearn.


Never too old to yearn.
The wages OF gin Is death.
Low ideals do nothing to lower the
high cost of living.
There are some people in whom vir-
tue seems worse than sin.
There are people galore who can
resist anything save temptation.
A lot of people who make them
selves do mighty poor job of it.
The man who never asks the price
always gets the worst of bargain.
It's astonishing how many things
come our way that we don't care for.
Many persons try to cover up their
lack of knowledge by trying to be
witty.
The sermon on the mount contains
all the religion and philosophy in the
world.
Many OF us who show courage in
the presence of others. fail miserably
without witnesses.
If we always prepare ourselves for
the worst that may happen. we will
never be disappointed
A good deed is never lost. He who
soWs courtesy reaps friendship; and
he who plants kindness gathers love.
Some men who Willingly spend $40
for horse blankets suddenly feel the
grip of poverty when their wives ask
for a new cloak.
1t makes some men sad to see their
wives work hard. so they spend most
of their spare time In the barn or in
town to avoid the sight.
When you want legal advice. hunt
up some man who would rather help
you to keep out of trouble than to
get you out after you are once in up
to your knees.

ADVANCING HONOR OF UNION

stiffly-starched shirt bosom and neck

Sunday as surely as a hangman's rope
could have done II.
Johnson drove to the house of a
friend, Frank Brinkman, on Laurel
Street. Brinkman was out. Rain was
falling and Johnson drove under the
stable shed. Returning. Brinkman
found Johnson apparently uncon-
scious. A doctor pronounced him
dead.
Medical Examiner Fuller said IL
was perfectly plain that Johnson had
been strangled by his starched, un-
yielding neckband and the top of his
shirt bosom. Waiting in his wagon,
he had fallen asleep and his head
had bobbed forward until his chin
rested on his breast. Slowly the iron
like neckband acted like a garrote.
1t impeded the circulation in the great
blood vessels OF Johnson's neck until
he was unconscious. These shut of
the passage of air in his windpipe
and choked him to death.
