in demand. and clcaranccs Of the stock

IF YOU WOULD WIN

Having good morals, being kind
hearted, being surcharged with am
bition and high ideals, all these are
to be desired by every young man,
but all of them, supplemented by most
of the other lauded qualities within
the range of human nature will fail
to get you considered as Somebody
if you do not have also the willingness
and determination to work, steadily
and persistently, at some worthwhile
employment.
If you have inherited money, people
many simulate obeisance to you. But
it will be to the money only; in their
hearts they will think less of you than
if you did not have the money. And
you may have made money, lots of it,
through speculation or by lucky
fling Of fortune, but it will not gain
for you the sincere respect of the
people whose opinions are valuable.
You can get their respect only by
sincere effort; by real, deserving
work.
This is the only one way in which
you can become Somebody" All the
other ways have been tried and found
wanting. 1t is waste of time to at
tempt establishing yourself in the
hearts of the people by bluff or
buncombe or political flim-flam. You
may apparently get by with it for a
little time, but in the end the people
will know and will despise you.
Real, permanent success never has
been gained by inheritance, nor by
trickery nor by dishonesty. It can be
gained only by earnest effort, con-
scientiously and persistently applied
with the sincere purpose of making
the world little better or richer or
happier because of your having lived.
If you would win, work!-Joplin
Globe.

HELP YOURSELF

Dwellers in cities and towns some
times get the idea that they can go to
the country and help themselves to
whatever they find to eat. This often
leads to despoiling of watermelon
patches, taking roasting ears, wild
fruits, nuts and orchard products
without asking permission. The
farmer is in constant warfare to pro-
tect the fruit of his labor against such
depredations.
1t matters not if the blackberries or
nuts are wild, they are the property
of the farmer if they are on his land.
No one has right to go on the land
without permission and gather these
things any more than he would have
the right to go into the back yard Of
town dweller and take his grapes or
pull his radishes.
Then the hunters, too, are often
thoughtless in making free with the
farmers woodland. They frighten
their stock, leave gates open, kill
their quail, which they wish to keep
to kill insect life and make themselves
very obnoxious in many ways. There
are hunters who ask permission to go
on land to hunt and are careful to
disturb nothing. These are welcome
for they are real sportsmen.
The farmers justly resent acts Of
injustice just the same as would the
town dwellers.
When you 60 nutting this fall or
when you take your dog and gun and
go forth to hunt, be sure you are vel
come before going on farmers
property.

ONE WAY TO HELP BUSINESS

Every man who pays his debts
promptly helps business for himself
as we'll as for everybody else. This
is consideration we'll worth keeping
in mind in these days when money
as we'll as labor has demanded higher
wages-that is to say, when interest
rates have risen.
1t is the active dollar that keeps
business moving. The fact that the
great bulk of business is done by
check does not in the slightest degree
alter the truth of the foregoing state
ment. The check must be backed by
value somewhere. There must always
be tangible basis for the intangible
commodity called credit.
1t does not require any deeply.
learned dissertation on finance to con-
vince every practical person of this.
Every business man knows the truth
of it. 1t ought to be considered duty
therefore, to keep money circulating
as promptly as possible. If every
merchant in the United States who
does a credit business were to ginger
up the collection department, to get
"the active dollar habit" started in
town, and then pass on the activity
in the way Of discounting his bills. or
at least meeting them with absolute
promptness, it would make big diff
ference in the general activity Of
business.-Boot G. Shoe Recorder.

The child who has certain duties to
perform will do them without question
after the habit is formed, although
he may rebel in the process. Habits
of play with no responsibility nor
required duties are pernicious. The
habit of Incidence or continued play
will follow through life making
honest work or performance Of duty a
disagreeable effort instead of a
pleasure as it should be.
The habit of taking interest in
wholesome work as we'll as play is
one which should be formed early in

A circus is a good advertisement
for town. 1t brings people from
far and near. They visit the business
houses and get acquainted, and even
if they do not spend much money on
circus day, they see where they can
find good values and will return. Mo-
nett had more people in town Thurs
day than ever before in the towns
history. The impression they got Of
