'.For what is the hope of the hypo-
crite?"
This is sometimes called a wicked
world, but 1T must be admitted that
there is a most wholesome contempt
for the life which does not ring true.
Double standards of living make
the man or woman attempting the
same a human mockery.
The hypocrite is one who claims to
be one thing, but is in reality some
thing else. The type varies with the
different walks of life.
There is the business hypocrite,
the political hypocrite, and the re-
ligious hypQcrite.
The business hypocrite is an artist
in the line of making shoddy suit
of clothes appear to be Atwood
The political hypocrite can preach
reform while keeping in contact with
ninety-nine different kinds of graft.
The religious hypocrite can be quite
regular at prayer meeting and yet be
an adept in lodging his taxes.
And what is the hope of such as
these? There can be no permanent
satisfaction as a reward for this type
of life.
Those who get the most out of life
live four square to all the world
Their life is an open book. Candor
is virtue. They conceal nothing
which the public has right to know
They have but one standard and that
is the standard of honor, fidelity and
truth.
If true to themselves they realize
they cannot then be false to any man
They thus become the strong towers
of the business, political and religious
world. The only life worth living is
that which conforms with the truth

James ]. Corbett found one of his
friends in the throes of thought the
other day. The friend was contem-
plating giving up fat salaried pos
ition to take an independent chance.
Whenever he thought of the profits
ahead If he made good as a business
man he glowed like an oil lamp.
Whenever he thought of resigning
that sure envelope at the end of the
week he became solid ice to the
midriff.

California said Corbett, my father
used to lecture me. Stick to the job
in the bank, Jimmie, by said he.
It's the fine salary you do be getting
there, and as long as you live you
can kape that fine job at the desk.

Turtles Bring Good Prices.

Mason City, Ia, Nov. Hundreds
of pounds of turtles are being taken
from Lime river north of this city
by fishermen who are engaged in
shipping their catch to Chicago
where so far they have received Z
cents per pound. The crop is par
ticularly good this year.
j. M. Reab, living near Kensett,
and Chris Rass mussen are the chief
turtle hunters. One day this week
they secured 1900 pounds and the
following day 1000 pounds.
The turtles at this season are bur-
rowed in the mud near the edge OF
the streams. They are found by a
long stick, and the skilled fisherman
knows when his prod strikes the back
of a turtle. With a pole on which
a hook is fastened the turtle is torn
from his oozy bed. Some of the
catch are of unusual size.

Hurt by Cow.

Tavern Kiple, son of Mr.. and Mrs
Murray Kiple, had an experience on
Saturday which he will long remem-
ber HIS was in Efford Hunsberger S
barn, and in going about he excited
COW with a young calf by her side.
The cow made charge, knocking
the lad down and was trying to do
further injury when Max Hunsberger
and Jake Pfster came to the rescue.
They beat and kicked the COW until
the boy regained his feet and reached
place of safety. Then they made
a hasty retreat. Tavern was con-
siderably bruised about the face and
his injuries compelled him to remain
at home for several days. 1t was
fortunate for the lad that assistance
was near at hand when the enraged
COW made the onslaught Elgin
