liable assets that girl can possess.
For 1t Will make friends, will hold
them, and. best of all. Il will inspire
the individual with courage during diff.
fcult experiences that she might fail
in did she not buoy herself up with
an outward pretense Of happiness.
The cheerful girl Is distinct a .Idition
in any group. She need not be witty.
nor constantly talking. If she has sc.
renity and happiness In her disposi.
tion, for she gives II out rs uncon.
sciously as the sun sheds It's rays. and
1t Is sufficient. In point of fact. peo-
pie are like plants: they turn to the
light Of happiness and from the shad
ow of discomfort
To tell the truth, no PERSONS life is
entirely free from perpIexities of
some kind Everyone has his own
troubles; and to forget them Is a
component part of happiness Each
individual has far TOO many woes To
wish to hear those of others n we
did not have trouble we should not
have happiness: II life were all one

waited at the railroad yards patiently
for several hours this morning to
welcome the Norris & Rowe circus

Gus not reaching Princeton yesterday

aged the equipment Monday at
Henderson 1t met with no better

ayers Of the circus were unable to
get sufficient money to transport the

Havens had arrayed against him
one OF the strongest political organ

campaign lasting II days and with a

the consumer, a revision of the du-
ties on wool and wooden goods; re-
moval OF tax on hides and lumber;

the Income tax, and advocating inde-
pendence OF political bosses of any
party. Aldridge contented himself
with general proclamations IN favor
Of the policies OF the Republican ad-
ministration. On the tariff he was
regarded as a "stand patter."
The Democrats acknowledge one OF
the main factors in today's reversal
was the personal issue raised by AL

evidence presented at the recent fire
Insurance investigation. Aldridge
acknowledged that he received
fee OF $1,000 from an agent OF the
