"KETCh-AwLs"FROM EVERYWHERE

If any man among you seem to be
religious, and bridleth not his tongue,
but deceiveth his own heart. this mans
religion is vain. James l: 26.
For ten thousand of the aches, and
pains, and irritations of men and wo-
men there is nothing equal to sunshine.
1t is more soothing than opiates and
more stimulating than wine. This sun
shine includes not merely that which
beams from the sky but the sunshine of
cheerful speech and action. The Good
Samaritan did more than pour oil and
wine into the gaping wounds of the
Ptraveler-he gave the sunshine of life,
courage and love. - Bedford Democrat.
Education is wonderful thing.
'Send your boy to school and the other
boys will educate him.. ''Send him 10
college and when he gets out he can go
to work for the man who didn't have
time togo to college. Education is not
book learning. 1.-The best educated man
is the man who is the most useful "
Book learning furnishes us with the
tools to get knowledge. Schooling is only
the foundation of education. Remem-
Der that experience is the best teacher
and that learning is no good unless you
can apply it in practice. like religion.
What good is a religion that you cannot
apply to your every day life; and what
good is an education that you can't use
Knowledge is power. and learning helps
US to get knowledge so does work..
