LIFE LUBRICANT.


Good cheer is a great lubricant. 1t
oils all of life's machinery.
"A merry heart goes all the day,
Your sad tires in a mile
Good cheer is a great producer 1t
adds wonderfully to ones active abil-
fly and increases mental and physical
power. 1t makes hosts OF friends and
helps one to be interesting and agree
able
Good cheer will attract more Gus
toners, sell more goods, do more bus
mess with less wear and tear than al
most any other quality.
Optimism is the greatest business
getter, biggest trader, truest achiever
in the world.
Pessimism has never done any thing
but tear down and destroy what OPP
timism has built up.
In the business Office, in society, in
politics, in workshops, everywhere,
the favorite is always the cheerful fell
low with the bright smile and the
bright thoughts. Good-natured, cheer
full ones do not waste their vital ener-
gies as rapidly as gamblers or too So
beer, too sour ones do. They work and
live with much less friction. Good
cheer Is a simple habit 1t Is the habit
best In all the list.

thee; it is better to enter life MANNED,

feet to be cast into everlasting fire. If
thine eye offend thee, pluck 1t out. and

anything in your makeup dear to you
as a right hand or foot or eye, that is
likely to cause you to stumble and fail
to enter the Kingdom, you would better
cut off that tendency, no matter tohdt

How careful the Lords people should
be not TO stumble one another. even
one OF the least OF these little ones,
Jesus suggested that shepherd losing
one OF his sheep would leave all the
others to go and seek that one; and
he rejoices specially at its recovery.
So we, the followers OF Jesus, should
remember that we are all sheep under
the great shepherd; and that He has
the spirit OF loving interest and care
which would go after the straying
sheep: and We should have this same
spirit.

A tree grows in perfect balance on
every side. When a large branch
shoots out on one side one Of equal
size or two smaller appear on the other.

BUSINESS coon IN
PRESIDENTIAL YEAR

THE General Letter on Trade Con-
ditions and Business Forecast" ," issued
by the National Bank Of Delaware for
November, takes an optimistic view Of
conditions on the eve practically, Of
the presidential election. It states,
among other things:
"We have arrived at the threshho,d
of the Presidential elections with CON
stantly increasing business, instead Of
the usual persistent dropping off from
month to month just before a general
election.
1t is worthy Of note that mercan-
tile and manufacturing business on
the whole is practically what it was
at this date in 1905. Activity in the
stock and bond market is just shade
below what it WIS at that time and
banking conditions are about the
same By going back to the first OF
November. 1905 we will find the
business situation very similar to that
which we have today and in the
closing months of 1905, and the open
ing months of 1906. we will find z
series. Of events. which, it is reason
able to presume, Will be followed
fairly closely in the next few months
