Do YOU WANT REAL PROSPERITY?

True prosperity is granted only to the heart
that abounds with integrity, trust, generosity
ard love-
The heart that is not possessed of these
qualities cannot know prosperity, for prosperity,
like happiness, is not an outward possession, but
an inward realization.
greedy man may become a millionaire but
he will always be poor and mean, and will even
consider himself outwardy poor so long as there
is a man in the world who is richer than himself.
The upright, open-handed and loving will
attain a full and abundant prosperity, even
though their material riches may be small
When we realize that the universe abounds
in all good things and see mans blind eager
ness to secure few gold coins, or a few acres
of SOIL we understand how dark and ignorant
selfishness is. 1t is then that we know self
seeking is self destruction
He who would gain true prosperity does
not settle down into the belief that if he does
right everything will go wrong. He refuses to
allow the word competition to shake his faith
in the supremacy Of righteousness.
No matter what men may say about the
laws of competition, there is an Interchangeable
law which shall one day put them all to rout.
Understanding this law we can contemplate all
dishonesty with undisturbed repose knowing
that certain destruction awaits it,
Under all circumstances the true man does
that which he believes to be right and trusts
the higher law and power that is imminent in
the universe. By such trust all losses are con-
verted into gains, and all curses which threaten
are transmitted into blessings.
Holding to integrity, generosity and love-
we are lifted into the truly prosperous state.
Refuse to believe the world when it says
one must always attend to self first and others
later To do this is not to think of others at ALL
but only of ones own comfort.
Consideration of self before all others
cramps and warps every noble impulse.
The heart reaching out to others in loving
and generous warmth will attain great and last
ing JOY and true prosperity.

the seashore of rest.
When he was a mere lad, his father
was called upon to pass into the great

ness and pulled his full share of the
load.
A few years later, the mother Joined
the silent majority, and George S bur
den became heavier. But he kept right
on and kept The Commercial going on
its useful way.
When the spectre of i'll health cross
ed his pathway, he thought best to
sell his newspaper and engage in some
other work. Whatever the work shall
be, we wish him every measure of
success. George is a fine fellow. He

suRMouNTING OBSTACLES.

Mr.. N. c. Weaver and Miss Chris
tine Pinion, of Fayette, Ala, appear
led before Circuit Clerk Sephen-
son, Wednesday, and requested that
worthy official to issue a marriage
license in their behalf. Mr.. Stephen
son is one of the most accommodate
ing men in the world, but he had to
turn the young folks down because of
the fact that he had received tele-
gram from the, young lady's father
who stated that she was not of mar
riageable age and asking that a
license be Withheld.
Mr.. Weaver, however, was deter
mined to become the husband of the
pretty young girl, so he had a friend
call up the clerk at West Point, who
gave out the information that he had
not been forbidden to issue mar
riage license for the runaways. Mr..
Weaver and the bride-elect immedi-
ately set out for West Point in their
car, and there they were made one.
1t was learned at the court house
here that while Miss Pinion was not
old enough to assume marriage vows,
she would reach her eighteenth year
before Christmas.
