IEayuard's Philosophy
E. F. Hayward, Conover Wis.
THE TOILER.

We are struggling for existence
Against hunger, want and cold
And the poorhouse in the dis
lance
Gives a warning plain and bold.
Many fail, because Of craving
Something easy for their share,
Seldom earning, never saving,
Such as these, find home right
there.
For grim misery is lurking
Where the sluggard loves to
play;
But when men are busy work
ing,
It keeps going on it's way.
lis the man who earns his liv-
ing
And by honesty is led,
Need not have the least mis-
giving,
His best days are just ahead.
Opportunity is knocking
For the man who loves to work !;
While despair is always stalking
On the trail of those who shirk.
There's a dignity in labor,
Which the idle cannot know;
High esteem of every neighbor,
Richest gift man can bestoW.
And the man who would inherit
Happy days of we'll earned rest,
Is the one whose work shows
merit
He who does his level best.
Be his workshop in the city,
Or outside upon the farm,
He's content, and asks no pity,
Self-reliance is his charm.
He removes the things which
hamper,
And would fill his path with
strife,
Thereby opening the.damper
Which will give the draught to
life.
Let this simple fact impress you,
And a bit of wisdom CLEAN,
Is your wish the Lord to bless
you,
Keep your mental workshop
clean.
Pure thought gives force to
action,
And your work will seem as
play,
If you have the proper ''trac-
ton,
You'll work wonders in day.

CAN BE HEARD ALL RIGHT

The new siren fire alarm was
tested out satisfactorily Sunday
afternoon when the awning over
EWald Bros. store caught fire,
presumably, from cigarette
carelessly thrown upon it, crea-
ting a blaze which looked dan
gerous for the time being. Be-
fore the arrival of the fire de-
partment hose, spectators had
applied water with pals which
put out the fire although the
awning was destroyed. AS an
alarm, the whistle is all there.

A. K. Everett Passed
Away Friday May 10
After Several Months Illness
Funeral Held. From
Home Sunday

The death of A. K. Everett,
as briefly announced last week,
occurred at his home here last
Friday afternoon at two-thirty,
following an illness of several
months and from which, of
late, it had been known he
could not recover.
Mr.. Everett was born on a
farm near Beloit on December
20, 1861. He spent his early life
there and then began work as
an employee Of the American
Express Co., and for a period of
several years had regular runs
out of Chicago to Boston and to
New Orleans. He also made
trips on the C. & N. w. Ry.,
when Rhinelander was as far as
the road ran north. Later he
continued railroad life as con-
ductor in charge of Pullman
cars.
After his brother, E. A. Ever
EFT, became the owner of the
Everett resort, he frequently
visited here and the visits Gull
minated in his marriage on the
sixth of December, 1901, to
Miss Viola Mcintyre. The year
following their marriage they
returned from Cairo, H., where
they had resided, and since that
time he had been closely con-
nected with his brother in the
management of the. constantly
growing business of the resort
and it can be said that his affa-
bility and attention to business
detail have been responsible for
much of the success of the place
in which he took a deep interest
and he is known by thousands
of tourists as an office manager
who was always solicitous for
their comfort and pleasure.
AS a citizen of Eagle River,
he was one of the progressive
kind and ready at all times to
assist in its advancement or aid
in any Of the many ways that
such citizens are called on to do.
He was closely devoted to his
family and home and was a man
who enjoyed the companionship
of his friends and was a royal
entertainer to them in his
home.
He is survived by his wife,
son Charles, and daughter, De
borah, and two brothers, E. A.
Everett of Eagle River, and
Charles H. Everett of Racine,
all of whom were present at his
funeral.
Funeral services were held at
the home on Sunday afternoon
conducted by Rev. w. J. Davies
and made more impressive by
the singing of a male quartette
composed of Chas. H. Adams,
o. E. Gibson, Amos Radcliffe
and Rev. Davies.
A large attendance of friends
and acquaintance testified to
the esteem in which he was
held as a citizen of Eagle River
for twenty years, and the sym
pathy felt for the relatives in
the loss of a loving husband,
father and brother.

All, surely he did love her In spite
of what she had done. AS a traveller
in dry and thirsty land longs for
fresh water. so he desired Polly Hop
kins. Vain had been his efforts to
tear her image from his heart Often
he had been tempted to marry her
and take her out of her dreadful cir
cumstances, but each time the desire
came to him, the vision of the dying
farmer killed it.
BrOodingly his eyes swept the mar
row lake and the eastern, rearing hills.
He remembered how he and Polly
Hopkins had sat together on the rag

over the sky above, like floclxs of birds
across wQpder-blue water.

1t was the first time Marcus had
spoken to her just that way; and the
sharpness of his tones and the glitter

through her. She whirled squarely
upon him. At the sight of her face he
took backward step. He had never

place.

told him. Il positively refuse to listen

Suddenly she went deathly pale,
held out trembling hand, and swayed
as if she were going to fall. She

caught her to him. Everything but
his lovely young bride faded from his
mind.

through the man.
