Jameson Bros. Sell Their farm of $50
Acres to Lucien Hebert.

One of the largest farm deals that
this town has known for some time was
transacted on Thursday, March 10, when
Jameson brothers of Baptist street sold
their large farm, consisting Of $50 acres
of land and including stock and tools,
to Lucien Hebert and wife. This is one
of the largest farms on the east side of
the town and has been brought to high
state of cultivation.
Jameson brothers have kept a large
stock of cattle, mostly of the shorthorn
breed, which they have made a special
ty, looking more for profits to beef than
dairying. Mr.. Hebert is a neighbor and
owns the adjoining farm and plans to
convert the two into one of the largest
dairying farms in town. Jameson broth
ers have owned the farm just sold for
l6 years and during this time, by care
full management, have been very success

WALT MASON WOULD RATHER BE A DooRKEEPER IN EM- PEORIA THAN DWELL IN
 THE TENTS OF GOTHAM
Literary Digest)

sIf I can be popular in Emporia, I don't care three assorted hoots about my standing in New York or Boston," says Walt Mason, prob ably the most widely read news paper poet and philosphere in Am erica. If a man can so conduct himself that the leading citizens of his town will slap him on the back, push his hat down over his ears, and call him by his first name, it consoles him, Walt finds, for the disappointments of life, and he may feel that he is not a com plete failure. "The folk at home know man from his rubber heels to his side-whiskers," he assures us in The American Magazine, and if he gets in wrong with them the stuff's off. There's no happiness for him elsewhere. The one thing needful to become popular, accord ing to Mir. Mason, is to have con- Sideration for the other fellow. The first impulses of most of us, he assets, are purely selfish. This trait we inherit from our forefath. CTS, who lived in trees and caves. In the course of tens of thousands of years mankind has developed the ability to entertain secondary impulses, however, which involve consideration for others. He il iustrates:
 When want a chicken dinner any first impulse is to go out after dark and steal hen; my second impulse is to go to the meat market and buy one. I have found that my second impulses nearl, always are selfish and wrong, and
 follow the second ones.

before the sixth visit. He was too busy, or he could't be interrupted just them, or he had to check up the account, or something else.
 And he was a fine man, who wanted to do good in the world, and who would rather be found dead in the alley than beat any body out of a cent. He must have known how desperately I needed the money, but he couldn't break away from his unfortunate habit of staying off bill-collectors. Lat CT, he was candidate for mayor and the town needed him; the newspapers forgot all party tes and boosted him as one who was honoring the municipality by con- senting to run. lie should have

The people who follow their sel

The people who follow their sell fish impulses are thoughtless of the feelings of others, and hence become unpopular, maintains Mason. This thoughtlessness mainifests it. self in a variety of ways, and he furnishes an example:
 Some weeks ago we were short hannded at our house. The butler had sprained an ankle while carry ing the winters ashes out of the basement, and the hired girl was at an emergency hospital trying to take a fall out of the influenza. The missis was doing the cooking and dish washing, and I was carry coal and splitting kindling, and using language of various kinds.
 It was at this junction that Cous- in Benjamine came down from Iowa to pay us a surprize visit. He came in his auto, with his wife and several bushels of children, and they all thought they were doing something amusing and took it fol granted that we'd be overjoyed to see them. We greeted them as cor dially as we could, and won such smiles as people wear at coroner's inquests, but our hearts were full of bitterness. Had Cousin Benja- mine notified us he was coming we could have wired him that the house was quarantined, or taker other defensive measures. But that isn't Cousin Benjamin's way.
 There never was man with in tentions. He is generous and kine and wants to be everybody's frient and there is no meanness in him But he has a diagonal sense of hu nor, and when he goes ahead tt work it out, without sitting dowl for half an hour to figure hoy it's going to affect the other fel low. As a consequence, he is lonesome man. People apprecia.'

his sterling qualities, and have long-distance affection for him; but they hide under the barn when they see him coming.
 Of other things that make people get in wrong, he mentions the re- luctance of some to pay their bills. He says they can't settle up with out grating their teeth and look ing like King Charles on the way to the block" A specimen of this kind is put on exhibition:
 Some years ago l was editor and proprietor of a weekly paper which was forever teetering along the edge of bankruptcy. There was small job-office in the back room and two or three, discouraged printers who were always weighed down by foreboding that the ghost would't walk on payday. l never could understand how I kept that concern going as long as I did, for the sheriff was never more than few rods behind, and the super intendent of the county poor farm was always reminding me that he had box-stall fitted up for me whenever l was ready for ti.
 One day prosperous business man sent for me and told me he had been watching my heoric strug- gles against an adverse fate and was going to help me. He had a loi of printing done in the course of 6 year, and therefore I'd have my share of it. And he gave me a considerable order, all the time overflowing with benevolent smiles the milk of human kindness faiil, dripping from them.
 went back to the shop trium. phant and told the printers. The foreman who was the champion middle-weight pessimist of the town was not at all enthusiastic.
 "I know that old delega.e," said he; ''he has ninety-five cents of the first dollar he ever earned still ir his possession. You have to use z jimmy to pry nickle from him Of course he's good, and probably means well, but he just hates to SC, a doubleloon get away, and you'll have to wear holes through hi. stairway chasing up for your mon ey."
 Insomuc, as the foremap tool the bitter view of all men ane things, l imagined he was romano ing; but found there was no ex aggeration in his remarks.

been elected by an overwhelming majority; but the people who had climbed that weary stairway to his office over and over, and who had been put off until tomorrow or the day after, got out and worked against him. They voted against him in every ward, and then put on false whiskers and repeated, and he was so badly beaten that Aris- tides the Just looked like four time winner by comparison.
 It broke his heart; he thought the town loved and admired him and the town would have done so had it not been for his habit of making people earn their money twice.

BE A CREDIT TO YOUR TOWN (Edgar A. Guest in Globe-Democrat

Be credit to your town,
 Help to build its fair renoWn Stoop to nothing that would shame
 Either yours or its good name; Tn what'er you find to do Write with conducts golden pen
 That your town breeds gentlemen; And no matter where you go,
 You walk your way content, If it's best you represent. Serve it every way you can;
 In your trials play the man; Guard its honor as your own,
 Keep it's petty faults unknown; Be kind and genial host,
 Love your town, but do not boast When you travel east or west,
 For your city live your best Prove by every act you do,
 That it's citizens are true; Let men learn to link your name With the town from whence you came. Cities grow not great by stone,
 Or the wealth or lands they own. All the fame they rise to win,
 Comes from men who dwell therein; Human hearts shape all renown! Be credit to your town.
