PAY UP WKKIC SOMR IiiBonlous pooplo liavo con eolved tlio ldoa of a national Pny-lTp-Wcok, to bo obsorved February 21-20, wlion ovoryono should bo exhorted to pay bis dobts. Tlio American pooplo need a little prodding on tills point. Tlioy hnvo ji joyous liablt of throwing bills Into tb'o waste baBkct that docs not pro moto goncrnl business prosperity. Not evory one who lots his bills go ' unpaid Is Indifferent about It. Many pooplo would glndly payall thoy owe, could thoy collect tlio debts duo thorn. But with many othor porsons, tlio moro easily thoy could pay, tlio less ready they aro to do It. It would jnnko thorn very tired to sit down monthly n.nd write oTf u dozen checks. By letting tlio bills run, thoy can do It all In ono Job. This savos them much hard work. Yot they may Iiuvo Idle money In tlio banks. Some hunluoHH men allow bills to run to save a trifle of Interest, losing which would offend their thrifty souls. Of coiirso Iho creditor Is monn whllo losing Interest. But creditors nro considered grasping creatures who have all tlio money thoy need. It Is surprising how quickly u dol lar will run nround a town. When you pay that long standing bill duo tlio groct', ho Is Immediately nhlo to satisfy the teamslor. The latter can settle with the butcher, who can now pay that old bill at the printer's. So It ROCK. Tlio net result Is a new reeling of confidence mid good will. If a gener al debt paying custom could be start ed during u Pay-up Week a great many pooplo would fool u now cour age about their busltiers future. They would buy iinoro freely. A wave of now business would spread over the country. Let ovoryono do what ho can toward It. t WITH THE TOAST Z t AND THE TEA 1 ;ooi kvknino Truth never was Indebted to n He. Young. ahoiwdtiik m:.i Around the bond thoro's a lovelier vlow, And tlio road may wind swentor than here; With meadows oach side th.t shall gllstou with dew, And birds that shall warblo their eheor, Thuro aro uioiintafus perhaps, with their blue summits high, In the mist and the glory of light, And a far-away place In tlio hluu of tl o sky That shall comfort your heart fir Up night. Around tlio bond thoro's a vallay, perhaps, Full of rest, and of blossoms and dreams, Whoro tlio wave of the river of (liiletiido laps, And tlio mossy hanks slope to the et reams, Thoro aro shelters, no doubt, from the storm and the strife, And dancing mid music mid cheer, And a turn for tlio bettor in every one's llfo-r Let us follow, and feol no fear!
