Cncouragc the Hustler
If you want n llvo town, push tho
hustler. Few towns nio without men
who havo raoro push and 'energy than
means to carry out their plans. For
haps tho hustler may occasionally mako
a mistake, possibly ho may ovorn-ach
iu his efforts to build up tho town, keep
him going, help him push. Ho may be
come wesry and should bo encouraged.
Don't got jealous ot him and throw cold
water on his efforts, It ia moro diflcult
to build up than to tear dowry; that ia
why eo many nro engaged in destroying
what the few arc creating. A. half dot
en actlvo mon in a town are worth moro
to it than n huudred passive men. It
takes moro entorprWo than money to
build up a town. Get bokiml tho hust
ler and keep pushing; don't push back.
If you can't push crawl out ot sight and
sit down. If you can't say a good word
say nothing. ,

Remember When You Buy Meat
Tire following story waa recently told
of a Marshfleld marrM couple for which
the husband had been accustomed to do
nil the buying. Tho husband finally
had so much bmlncsaon hand that it
became necessary to turn the buying
oyer to bis wife. One morning ho told
her to get a shin bone to mako como
soop, She aGkcd him what a shin bono
was and the husband lifted hia trousers
and indicated that portion ot the anat
amy, When tho wife arrived at tho
butcher shop she bad forgottonthe
name of the bone wanted, and to inform
tho butcher, had to iift her skirts and
ahowher ehinB. When Bhe retnrned
home she told her forgetfulncssand how
she bad to show her shins to let the
butcher know what she wanted. The
husband heaved a tired sigh and said.
' 'well my dear, I am glad I did not tell

When Yom Havo a Cold
The first aotlon when you havo a cold
should bo to relievo the lungs. Thla is
best accomplished by tho froo use of
Chamberlain's Cough Itornndy. The
remedy liquefies the tough mucus and
causes its expulsion from thu air colls of
the lungs, produces a freu expectorat
ion and opens the seoretlona. A com
plfitecuro soon follows. This remedy
will cure a BQvero cold In less Mmo,
than any other troatmunt and it leaves
the nyitom In a natural and henlthly
