You have but one life to live, and
if you have home and are out of
debt, do not fret and worry yourself
into the grave for the sake of making
money. Give more attention to the
pleasures and comforts of your fam
lily. and do little good to others. A
morbid, Unsuitable desire to gain earth
~ possessions and grab everything in
sight is the foundation of more mis-
cry than any other one thing. The
accumulation of wealth and the hon
ors of this mundane sphere. do not al
ways bring happiness or keep ones
memory green. but a good life and
kind actions will.

Ice. Ralph K. Rex, head OF the COM
pany. announced that all OF the creditors
OF the company and those holding stock
would be paid in full.
''The closing Of tia Rex Commission
Company" Mr. Rex SAID, els the direct
result Of the action OF the Western
Union. On last Wednesday evening, Just
before the close OF the stock exchanges.
the wires were discontinued. We had no
notice whatever. sked Mr.. Church,
superintendent o. a. Pittsburg branch
OF the Western Cnion, TO give US ten
minutes, so that we might flash the word
TO our many branch Offices. This he re-
fused 10 do. saying that he had orders
from the New York Office TO close our
service at once.
'This action Is due. no doubt. to the
move Of the Federal government in the
District OF Columbia recently. when there
were a number OF small commission
houses closed and put out Of business.
The action OF the telegraph company
was unjust, to say the least, and viii
cause the Rex company q loss OF more
