FROM THE PENCILS POINT

Society is human nature IL full
dress.
What most men call love isn't even
. good imitation.
The less a man talks, the more 9th.
ers may appreciate him.
Honesty should go hand in hand
with an insurance policy.
A little learning is almost as dan
gerous as some little widows.
How we like to meet a man who
has no tale of woe to inflict on US.
Any act by which you make one
enemy is, in the end, losing game.
Some people are so Ill tempered
they are annoyed when forced to
smile.
1t Is much easier and less expen-
sive to get married than 1t is to get
unmarried.
Law cannot make man moral. but
1t can make him decidedly uncomfort-
able If he is immoral.
If you will take the trouble to in
vestigate you will discover that pop
ular men agree with you
The man who wrecks a train Is
criminal. but the man who wrecks an
entire railroad may be a financier.
Always speak well of the dead, and
If you have the time you might speak
a good word for the living occasion
ally.
Somehow woman dislilles to hear
her husband talk shop almost as much
as man dislikes to hear his wife
talk shopping.
Many woman who wouldn't de-
hberately steal pin lies awake nights
trying to concoct a scheme to get her
neighbours hired girl.

Happiness.

The small boy gets his happiness
neck deep in the creek on an August
day; the grandfather finds it in the
society solumns of the newspapers
when their names appear among
those present." some look for 1t in
the stock market-to them it is a
matter of dollars and cents. There
are as many varieties of happiness as
there are sorts of people. But the
most satisfying and lasting happiness
Is the retroactive type that comes
through making others happy. We
get out Of life in proportion to what
we put into 1t.

Profit In Mistakes,

Because one has made mistake In
the business world is no cause for dis.
couragement. for II one is keen enough
to see and correct 1t, 1t may lead to fu'
ture success.
Setting the goal high and permit
ting no discouragements or mistakes
to change the course will do away with
many OF the disappointments found in
the path Of most people at some time
in their Observation-Disclosures Science
Monitor.

look at some Of the places who plant

RUSSIANS TURN ON
TEUT0N|C ENEMIES
GERMANS MAKING NO PROGRESS
IN CAMPAIGN IN THE
VICINITY OF RIGA.
British Military Writer'S Believe Aus
tro-Germsns Have Reached limi-
tation Of Their Penetration Of
Russia for the Present.

Austrian forces that have been en-
gagged with the Russians along the
Zeith river, south of Tarnopol, in east
ern Galicia, have been withdrawn TO
the heights east OF the Stripa river
before superior enemy forces" 1t is
stated in the official announcement OF
the Austrian war office.
A London dispatch says that the
western front, with continuous artii-
lery engagements, occasional infantry
attacks and the probability that inn
portant events now impending Will
soon begin, attracts almost as much
attention as the eastern battleflelds,
where the Russians and Austro-Ger-
mans are contending for the mastery
of railway lines, the possession OF
which will make the victors more Sc
cure when the time comes to go into
winter quarters.
For some time yet. however, the
east is likely to be the scene OF the
more sensational actions. The Rus
slams are putting forth a strong Of
fensive on either wing and are making
an equally stubborn defensive in the
center, where the Austro-Germans. al
though gaining ground daily and com
Ing closer to the Vilna-Royno railway,
are meeting with increasing opposi-
ton.
The Austrians admit that they have
suffered a setback in this region in
the statement that they withdrew
their front on the Sereth to the
heights east of the Stripa river be-
fore superior enemy forces"
On the northern end of the line,
southeast of Riga, the Russians also
are on the aggressive, with the result
that the Germans have made no fur
ther progress against the Dyina river
line.
Some of the British military writ
ers believe that the Austro-Germana
have reached the limit of their pene
tration of Russia so far as this year
is concerned, and that they must now
look to the defense of their present
lines. 1t is reported, in fact, that they
are already reconstructing the fortih'
cations of Kovno, which are threat
ened by the Russian offensive north.
west of Wilma.
The Russians estimate that the
Austro Germans have 2,500,000 men on
their front, twenty-eight corps being
in the Baltic and the Lithuanian re-
gion. Included in this army are elev-
en- Austrian and nine German cavalry
divisions
The Italians. like their western al
lies, are heavily bombarding their op
ponents' line with artillery, doubtless
in an effort to find weak spot to
attack.

MAIL ORDER HOUSES
DO YOU NO GOOD

Mall order houses have been thorn
in the side Of local merchants the
country over for many years. They
have been denounced by business men
and attacked In editorials time and
again but each annual statement
shows more business done and better
profits than the year before.
People may be exhorted to trade at
home-to support home industry-until
doomsday, but unless the local stores
in the smaller cities throughout the
country adopt the same methods that
have made the mail order business SO
profitable, these pleadings will be in
vain.
