THE HABIT OF THRIFT.

Lots of people expect to ac- quire all their good habits in their second childhood.
 And ore of the good habits long put off is thrift.
 Often this habit does come in second childhood. With ap- petites and pass Ons burned out of the lacayirg mind and body, 1ld men may find them selves freed from temptations and wrongly consider their condition due to ripened virt- ue
 But thrift, like any other ''virtue" forced upon one by nature, is apt to find it's envir- onment unhealthy and to cur dle into penurious meanness.
 If thrift is to be wholesome and sweet and fruitful it must

POWER OR ADVERTISING.

Beyond all question the mos

 paper advertisement. Millions
 upon millions of dollars are ex
 pended every day in the stores of the country because wei, written advertisements have directed public attention to convenient, becoming, attract
 we, useful, ornamental and suitable merchandise. The sale of all necessities, all luxuries, all indulgences, is more power fully stimulated by the news paper advertisement than by any other agency. Only hunger cold and nakedness are com parable to the advertisement as a promoter of sales--and even purchases of food, fuel and clothing are directed more largely by the business col umns of the press than by any other influence except immedi.

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS

be embraced while the mind and body are healthy and wig 1rouS.
 Thrift is a composite quality. It embraces within itself near iy all of the great virtues. It implies industry, prudence, forethought, sef-denial. It cert ainly has no relation to nig- gardliness or meanness. Some men would let their grand mothers starve to death for the sake of a few dollars. That cannot be called thrifty. And virtue carried to excess be- comes a vice and is no longer ] virtue. Thrift that does not take into partnership honesty and charity sours into covet- ousness and avarice. True thrift is the opposite of thrift lessness, prodigality, improvi- lence and waste. Thrift means better homes and better food, more comfort and enjoyment, less waste and less anxiety.
 Out of it grow quickened en- argies, firmer courage, more stalwart thought and hope, more orderly citizenship, edu- cation and a good chance in life for the children and the independence and self-respect that lift aimless, hopeless drudges up to true manhood.

THE IDLE WORD.

The idle word that stings is as old as human speech. Spok- en thoughtlessly or spoken in a moment of irritation, it says more than the speaker meant. At least it says more than he would have said if he had talk en second thought. Too often in a nasty moment one really would not for worlds cause lasting hurt does just that be- cause he reaches for the first remark that will register.
 These idle words go deep, deep into the heart and mem. ory of the one to whom they are addressed. There is no way of reaching this harm by laws and courts. There is no way of resolving that one will never say the thing that causes need less hurt, except by resolving to build up habit in ones life of saying only kindly things until quiet reflection hat shown the need of something else.
 This is not a text for weak lings, a counsel of meekness to the point of being trodden upon. It was not a weak man who prayed, "Set a watch be- fore the door of my lips" nol a fool who wrote, "She open eth her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law ot kindness"

ate necessity.
 The largest stores in our greatest cities have been built up by their advertising, their persistent and clever invitation to the public in the press to share in their bargains. Imag- inc what would happen to daily sales of merchandise, real estate, theater tickets, in- surance, books and other things, if newspaper advertise ments were prohibited by law for six months. It is not exag- geration to say that they would drop 50 per cent.
 It is not the current news ot events alone that makes the press of such incalcuable val ue to the nation, nor the free editorial expression of opinion The business news of the day as told by business concerns in their announcements to the public, decisively influences both the volume and the di rection of trade which flow to this or that store, office ol bank. This is a fundamenta fact no business house can af ford to overlook.
