THE RIGHT KIND OF PRIDE

pride goeth before destruction and naughty spirit
before fall, said King Solomon.
But there are two kinds of pride Solomon was speak
ing of the bad kind The good kind is very desirable in
human experience
Every man should have pride in his personal appear
ance should be proud of his wife and family should have
pride in his work
Are you proud of the work you are doing? When
others ask you the ageod question what do you dO do
you feel conscious sense of personal dignity you
sweror do you experience that feeling Of selfabase
ment that desire to gloss the character Of your work.
that your hearer may think you higher in the indus
trial scale than you are?
No honest work is shameful But it is possible for any
man by self training to raise from the humber tasks OF
life to the higher levels Of human endeavor and thereby
raise himself in his esteem and in the esteem Of others
to say nothing Of the very important item Of raise in
pay.
For humanity is so constituted that it respects man
proportion as he his bread by the sweat the
inside of his brow
Study! Think Redeem the hours that are yours! Be
climber and keep on climbing until you belong to that
high aristocracy which is proud of its work.

TAX PAYMENTS SWELL FUND
Railroads and Counties Make Return
at Same Time-Illinois Central
Pays in Full.

Acknowledgement in terms of
cash are the figures which appear in
the record of State Treasurer John
son these days. The time for paying
the first half of the railroad tax ex-
pired, as did the date for counties to
pay their dues to the state. AS a re-
suit there was added to the treasury
$1,500,000. Add to this $822,962.S1
paid by the Northwestern Railway
company and something more than
100000 paid by the counties, and
the recent additions to the cash bal
ance total something more than
$3,oO0,OOO
The Northwestern paid it's full first
half of the tax, $S22,96281, making
the total SI221,15022.
These payments clean up the first
half-payment of taxes by the railroads,
the amount due Feb. Is being $780,
923.52. Two small roads, the Robbins
company and the Chicago & Lake SUI
perior are the only ones now delin-
quent, their present dues amounting
to only $3S3.16. The Illinois Central,
following it's usual practice, has paid
its full tax, $14,660.07, anticipating
the August payment by six months.

Tea and Sulphur properly compound

was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeths Sage and Sui

large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that.

SO naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

REFUSED TO TAKE ADVICE
Foxes, Unlike Men, Could Not See
Things From the Viewpoint
of the Politicians.

The foxes were new to politics, and
so they listened to the advice of the
politicians.
THE thing for you to do" declared
these, lis to belong to parties and al
ways vote the straight ticket"
The foxes thought moment IF
we do So" they objected, ARE we not
in danger of voting inadvertently, for
yellow dogs now and then? OF course,
we don't wish to vote for yellow
dogs"
"Of course not" replied the politi-
clans. There's no danger-none in
the world. If you really and truly
belong to party it follows that there
are no yellow dogs in that party, and
Of there are no yellow dogs in the
party, how are you going to vote for
such, provided you always vote the
straight ticket?"
But the foxes were not convinced.
Indeed, after thinking a little more,
they resolved to have nothing to do
with parties.

sometimes foxier thar men.-New

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu.-
tralize Irritating Acids-Splendid
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
infiame, causing burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it. az
Bladder weakness, most folks call
1t, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.-Adv.

LOAN CONCERNS
GROW VERY FAST
REPORT OF THE BANKING COM
MISSIONER SHOWS A
BIG GAIN.
ASSETS AT HIGH RECORD
35 Per Cent in Single Year, With
Total of 31,ooo-Five New
Companies Started.

MISUNDERSTANDING and loan associ-
atoms in Wisconsin have had an
enormous growth in 1914, according to
the annual report of the banking COM
missioner, the number of members adj
vancing from $4,000 to $1,000, gain
of about 35 per cent.
The assets of building and loan as
sociations of the state have also grown
fast, the gain being from $4,000,000,
approximately, in 1908 to $12,000,00
in 1914. Building and loan assets have
tripled in six years. The gain for
1914 was $1,S00,O0O, or IT'S per cent
There are seventy building and loan
associations in the state, of which
thirty-six are in Milwaukee. Five new
companies were started in 1914. The
number of shares of installment stock
increased $4,000 in 1914, with a total
of $4,000 shares.
The earnings of building and loan
associations for the year were $685.
600 and the ratio of operating expens-
es to stock holdings and profits is 1.3
per cent. The contingent loss or re-
serve fund of building associations in
the state was increased from $4,000
to $3.50, 600 in 1914, indicating the add
ed safety of the companies.
Uniform bookkeeping methods have
been installed in all new building COM
panies and this feature is also being
introduced into old companies gradu-
ally.
Only the Mutual Loan & Building as
ISOLATION, Appleton, is in liquidation
Only minor changes to the law are
suggested. Investments of these as
sociations are limited by law to first
mortgages on real estate located in
the counties where the associations
are situated, the intention to make
the loans "1ocal." Because this
limitation unnecessarily reduces the
legitimate field of operations of these
associations, Commissioner Kuolt re-
commends that radius rather than
a county line be provided as a terri
torial limit.
