See the man with his- finger up? Well, he is pointing the way to make money Not. Do you see the point? Yes, you do, not. This man did busi ness once after dark. That's why he can't see it now it's gone after dark, and still chasing it. Once he was a pros perous business man, but that was some years ago. He is a stubborn old fellow and couldn't get on to new fangled ways in storekeeping. He still keeps his money in his sock for fear some one would steal the bank. He wouldn't risk a new idea .on the same haymow with him, but if you go out to the racetrack tomorrow with him you will see him pick Laura B., a 60-to-i shot, and risk a $10 bill to see her win. Wait till the race is over and he may ask you to walk down the track with him to see what delayed Laura B. If you try to comfort him he will inquire what you are "buttin' in" for. Just now he is advising folk to do their shopping atjiight, because they can see so much better after dark and have more time the nights are so much longer than the days on this end. He isn't in business any more himself, but there is some more of him that are on the other corners 'round town. Bimeby they'll be telling how to do it, not too. It's such a habit. And, by the way speaking of HABIT: A story is told of an English school teacher who offered a prize to the boy who should write the best composition, in five minutes on "How to Overcome Habit." At the expira tion of five minutes the compositions were read. The prize went to a lad of nine years. Following is the essay : "Well, sir; habit is hard to overcome. If you take off. the first letter it does not change 'abit.' If you take off another still you have a 'bit' left. If you take off still another the whole of 'it remains. If you take off another, it is not" wholly used up ; all of which goes to show if you want to get rid of a habit you must throw it off altogether." .If you've been in the habit of shopping Saturday nights, why not start today and "throw it off altogether?" Start in time to finish shopping by daylight get that habit and get the whole of it. Wherever you do your Saturday buying,do it before 6 P. M.
