Do yonr Christmas shopping early. We don't espect to. A man who has nothing bat riches is in a pretty bad way. He who is forever taking chances seldom takes anything else.

If you are beginning to worry about how much your Christmas gifts are going to cost you, don't make any. Dr. John M. T.

Many suggestion^will be made and those who have not yet reaped any benefit from the building fond and extension acts will have an opportunity to learn exactly now to prooeed in ordc r to do so. In this connection I w: jh to say that the weak schools of this county will reoeive extension money from the State this scholastic year t ? e extent of 11,25432. Besides, those districts that have complied with the building fund act will get something over fl',200 from the State and a like amount from the county this year.

Nobody ever says to me. *You are pretty, it is always 'You look pretty.' There ia a difference as wide 'as the wideness of the sea. The girl who really is pretty aerer has to give the subject s thought. Nothing she can do or leave undone affects the vital fact rhat she la pretty. The girl whom nature das not thus dowered must be forever trying to make herself 'look pretty.' Of course to a way she deserves far more credit for makiajt herself acceptable to the public than the pretty girl doea?also H is a compliment to her taste, ingenuity. skill and various other mental qualities to assure her she has attained auceesjfr? but it always reminds her of the battle she must continually wage-'* ?Exchange.
