NOTICE
The best way to build up your own
town Is to do your trading at home.
Patronize your home merchants. If
they succeed the chances are you will
, succeed. When you send a dollar to
a mail order house vou have the goods
and they have the money. Trade at
home and we keep both the goods and,
the money.
The fellow who sflcks up (or whiskey
has a taste for It or wants to make a
living from Its sale and he heeds a big
dose of genuine salvation. A man
with an appetite for whiskey will part
with his money quicker to appease
that appetite than for anything else on
earth. When he gets his shirt chock
full of distilled damnation he has a
voice like a fog horn, eyes like a drag
on and a breath that would, make a
skunk's choicest product smell like
rosewater. He will go home to the
wife, that he has promised God and
man to love and protect, and lie to her
about everything he an think of.
He's drunk drunk on villianous
whiskey. N Whiskey makes a man or
woman a liar and it makes him un
faithful to his wife. Whiskey makes
man a drivelling idiot and a fit subject
for the mad house. A drunkard usual
ly ends his miserable career in the
alms house, the padded cell or on the
gallows. Whiskey makes the drunk
ard and the drunkard has caused more
trouble than all the other evils com
bined. The only way to stop ' the
drunkard is to choke out the saloon
and the sale of whiskey.

"I was, sir."
"Did you take cognizance of the
bar-keeper at the time?"
"I don't know what he called it, but
I took whaMhe rest did."
A verdant looking old fellow recently
entered the office of a down town
woman's exchange, and after a mo
ment's hesitation inquired of the lady
in charge: "is this here the Woman's
Exchange?"
"It is," replied the lady.
"Well" continued 'the countryman,
somewhat sheepishly, 'I'd like to swap
off my old woman for 'most anybody
you happen to have on hand."
When you pull down the town in
which is your home, you are pulling
down yourself, and when you build up
your town you benefit both yourself and
your neighbor. Try and banish from
your mind the mistaken idea that all
good things are away off in some other
locality. Give your town all the praise
It can legitimately bear. It certainly
will do you no harm and will cost you
