Nobody is full grown, either men
tally or physically, when he is born.
It used to be stage driver, but
now it is a baseball player, that is
the idol of the average boy.
The way to Judge pastor is not
by the size of his salary, but by the

that people in your line will not find
it out.

LycurguS Brown is absolutely de-

himself He shows it by the careless
ness of his attire. Brown does not go

hrimmed black hat. low collar with

and a long tailed coat that flaps loose

man should rise superior to cOnven-

Once in a while some one viii OBJ
serve that Browns tie is loose, and
will excuse himself and seize the tie
and tighten the knot and jerk the long
end straight and make it look neat.
Does this please Brown? Perhaps.
But at the next opportunity he will
cautiously insert his fingers beneath
the knot and loosen the cravat until
it looks worse than it did before.
He allows his hair to fall in strag-
& ing locks over his head. Sometimes

BUSIN ESS.

How is business? Why, business
is Just as flat as l ever saw it, and
there is only one thing that 1 see
about it that is at all comforting, and
that doesn't do us very much good;
and that is that business is dull every
where lust like it is in Yorkville."
This was the reply of Yorkville
merchant in answer to a question In
regard to business conditions.
1--WE are practically doing nothing
continued the merchant, land the
travelling men who are coming here,
say that it is the same way everywhere
else. You see the wet weather is not
only interfering with the work on the
farms, but it has practically put an
end for the time being, of all kinds
of outdoor work. And you know, it
is a fact that when the farm hands
can't work. neither can the carpen-
ters, brickmasons and other outdoor
workers do anything and consequent
ly the people who spend money when
they have it, have nothing to spend"
well, l suppose you are looking
for an improvement when the wealth
er gets better" remarked the re-
porter.
"Oh. to be sure This kind Of
thing can't last. Everything will
brighten up after awhile and every
body will be sure to get some of the
business that will result from better
weather."

plete list of all who pay the govern
ment a liquor license and furnishes
one of the greatest aids the govern
ment could give to the enforcement of
prohibition. Heretofore, many selling
liquors in violation Of the state prOhi-
hition law have protected themselves
against the government by securing
Federal license. State officers can
hereafter know of all who secure gov
ernment licenses. 1t has always been
law that those securing government
liquor license should furnish details of
their business. The law has not be-
fore been enforced. But several weeks
ago Internal Revenue Collector Ruck-
er, together with all internal revenue
collectors throughout the country, re-
ceived instructions from Washington
that this law should he enforced to
the letter 1t will he strictly observed
in the collection of the government Ii
quor tax for the coming fiscal year.
The collector announces that Il dealer
paying his tax and failing to furnish
the information the government re-
ouires, had as well not pay his tax at
all. He will be treated as having dis
regarded altogether the governments
liuuOr tax law.
