Don't Let Bills Run-Pay UP.

Wonderful results have been obtain
ed In communities where the pay up
campaign has been tried out. With
every one paying his or her bills there
has been an immediate circulation of
money. There has been a qu~ickening
of business. Persons who never dream
Of being dishonest often let bills run
on. They are simply careless. They
do not mean to defraud. This is u
rapid age. Business deals are quickly
consummated. Prompt payments have
not kept pace with the times. To OBJ
vlate this the pay up campaign was
inaugurated. Do your share in the
good work. Quick payments simplify
bookkeeping. They add to the efiiclen
cy and stability Of your business.

Big Chains Are Handmade.

In this day of machine manufacture
it will perhaps surprise some to learn
that the making of big chains is large
ly, if not entirely, confined to methods
dependent on hand labor, says the Sci
entifc American. There are probably
no big chains being made in the Unit.
ed States by the use Of machinery.
There are various appliances employ
ed, but these are hand operated or per,
sonally controlled. This situation ap.
pears to be due to two things. First. as
the proverbial expression has it, "a
chain is no stronger than the weakest
of its Inks a handmade chain is
naturally made link by link. If the
workmen are not only careful, but con
scientious as to details. there is Il
considerable opportunity for attention
equivalent to continuous inspection:
The making of big chains is largely an
old time blacksmith's job.

While the county commissioners are
in no way bound to appoint my per
son who may be recommended as a
member of the county board to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Robert
A. Day, it is likely that the recommen-
dation of the delegation from the val
ley that d. f. Winsor of Saratoga be
chosen to fill the vacancy will receive
serious consideration, with the chances
good that his appointment will result.
The Sun knows nothing of Mr.. Win
sor's political or religious convictions,
and cares less, but the fact that he is a
successful business man, is a square
dealer, and is in every way qualified to
shoulder the responsibilities of the of
flee of county commissioner, leads this
paper to unqualifiedly support the rec
concentration that he be appointed to
succeed the late Commissioner Day.

Pronunciation In Ireland.

Many persons seem to see, or to hear,
rather, something to be amused at in
the soft Irish brogue. As a matter of
fact, most of the words of the Irish
dialect" are not Irish at all, but the
purest of English-English IA trife an
tiquated, it is true, but nevertheless the
real thing The ears of Milton, Dry
den, Spenser and Chaucer would not
have been surprised to hear an Irish
ia speak of "a rough say" or "a clane
shirt" AT the court of good Queen
Bess the cultured Englishman careful
ly garnished his conversation with
"goolde" rings and brave ''swoOrdes'
and bored his friends with accounts of
the smart sayings of the 'childre" at
"hoom." This vas the English origi-
nally imported into Ireland by the cul-
tured Irish. and the Irish have found
it good enough to preserve.-Chicago

INDIVIDUAL THRIFT.
!, Means to the Man What conserva-
ton Does to the Nation.

thONl SSso
The movement to encourage h peo-
ple of this country to curb ~eNtrava-
gance and to save money Is rapidly
growing, and it is a good thing That
it is so. We need such a campaign,
and its gospel of thrift should be
spread broadcast throughout our land.
The American people must save hey
can no longer afford to waste.
1t was the tremendous natural wealth
of this country that made Americans
a nation of spendthrifts. Now the end
of natures bounty is actually in sight.
All of the better public lands ave been
taken up The government is carefully
estimating our resources of coal and
oil. Water power is being developed
and husbanded. Wealth is not half so
easy to create as once it was, and for
that reason there is a nation wide ap-
probation of the necessity for conserv-
ing 1t. Thrift means to the individual
life exactly what conservation does to
the nation.
This movement for saving money
means a good deal more than the curb
ing of individual extravaganza. 1t
means more capital available for the
uses of commerce. 1t means that when
you have saved $1,000 you will find 1t
a good deal easier to borrow another

JAPANESE STRATEGY.
The Clever Way a WHY Ola Warrior
Deceived the Enemy.

ne SlGNO VIo N'F
Deceived the Enemy.
Many a man has failed to guess ~
easy riddle because the simple solution
looked like a trap to him. Here is an
instance In which this trait OF human
nature was cleverly played upon By a
Japanese nobleInan.
The old lord had been forced TO f21
with only 300 mel, before an eneEr
with 10000 and barely had time 10
reach his castle ahead of his foes.
There were no re-enforcements near at
hand, and he knew that If an attempt
vas made to storm his defenses lie
and his men would lie dead before help
could come.
The enemy's forces advanced rapid.
Iy, and scouts rode up near the castle
to reconnoiter. To their amazement,
they found the gates, doors and win
dows open and all the appearance of
a holiday celebration. They rode hasti,
ly back to inform their master that the
foe was dancing and that bands were
playing music in the castle.
The powerful enemy was too wise a
man to put his head into any such trap
as that. The defenders of the castle
must have some plan to slaughter his
forces by wholesale or they would
never invite him in that way. He
drew back to a safe distance and e IL
camped to await developments.
Soon the re~-enforcements for the cas-
tie came up behind, attacked him sud
denly and defeated him, while the gar

HER HUSBANDS CLOSET.
And What the Grateful Wife Said and
Did When She Saw It.

Did When She Saw 1t.
There was once u husband who
dreamed of having a closet all his own.
He dreamed of a place where he could
go at night and find things just the
same as they were in the morning. He
dreamed of a place in which he did not
occupy with his timid little two suits
a remote hook, while all the rest of the
circumambient space was filled with
well, what every husband knows. He
dreamed, and he said, Il will take ad-
vantage of my wife's absence and hire
q carpenter and a locksmith and fix
that closet up to suit myself and put
on it an i~mpregnable lock and key, and
then l shall laugh softly and say. AT
last the great day has come
And he did it.
And when hat night his wife came
home and saw the work that he had
done, she said:
where is that key?"
And the husband. trembling-for he
was no Bluebeard-produced it forth
with. And when she saw the ample
space within she fell on his neck and
said:
My darling, the our new frocks l
have bought this day, and the crepe de
chine party wrap, and the fur lined
Mother Hubbard, and the others-your
thoughtfulness has provided for"
And the man went out in the garage
and hanged his dress suit there-as he
had been wont to do-and sighed to
himself, saying, Good night life.

Wild Bees.

Wild bees gather the nectar most
frequently In the buckwheat. They
also will attack blossoms that the tame
bees ignore. The bee from the woods
doesn't seem to care for propagated
flowers, nor will it enter any hive that
has been placed for it, no matter how
enticing the food there. 1t is far more
vicious than its cultured brothers.
