Some papers as late as last week
were still harping about the Tulsa,
Oklahoma, riots-but alice samee the
next time a negro is arrested, accused
of assault or attempted assault on a
white woman or girl, and a bunch of
negroes attempts to take the prisoner
away from officers, there is going to
be more shooting done, and the ne
groes always get the worst of it. In
deed, when such an attempt is made
to take an accused rapist from Off
GERS, what should be done?

The little Sinking and subterfuges
of men who are hard-pressed for
money and which, even under the
stress of need bring them into con-
tempt, are virtues compared with the
acts of men of accumulated means,
by which they add to an already album
dant store. God pity the man who
elects to add another dollar to his
store in preference to adding to his
reputation as a real, honest, citizen
for many dishonest men keep their ac-
tons within the pale of the law.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned.

The average man does not save to
exceed ten per cent Of his earnings.
He must spend nine dollars in living
expenses for every dollar saved. That
being the case he can rot be too care
full about unnecessary expenses. Very
often a few cents properly invested,
like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on.
It is the same as buying Chamber
lain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy. 1t
costs but a few cents, and bottle Of
it in the house often saves a Doctors
bill Of several dollars.

One Of the most pitable things OBJ
served in life is to see men deliber-
ately threw away the real respect and
honor in which they might be held
in life by their fellows and which
would be justly accorded their memoir
les after thew have vanished from this
scene of action, for the acquisition of
a little or even a greater sum of mon
ey-which they do not need. Car
mack, on the floor of Congress, said
of old Josiah Patterson, That man
has lived too long who has lived to
.despise the common people who have
lifted him up and on whose shoulders
he has climed to greatness, and who,
in his declining years would foster
the respect of his lifelong friends for
precarious alliance with his lifelong
enemies" and one may paraphraze
that by saying That man has lived
too long who has failed to accumulate
enough regard for real honor to keep
him in the path of disenterested rec
titude; that man who would barter
the genuine esteem of both good and
bad men for additional dirty dollars
he does not need in life and every one
of which he must leave when he goes
to his final accounting for the deeds
done in the body.
