Avoirdupois and lots of it fotrms a subtlo bond of sympathy botweeon Secretary Taft and John L. Suillivat. Senator Foraker has discovered to his astonishment that he is not the Rspublican party of Ohio after all. An eminent scientist says "sun shine is helpful." In Tennessee, however, they rather prefer "moon shine." Girls, it's our opnion that you had bettor be an old maid than the wife of some worthless inan,&nd there is a great quantity of them in circu lation. 'The man who gets mad at what the newspaper says about him should return thanks three times a d'by for what the newspaper knew about him and suppressed. The man who owes a debt and persists in spending money for lux urios is spending money that does not belong to him. And yet how often it is done. It appears to the average reader that Mr. Taft's candidacy, after all, is with the consent of the president, and that he would not think of making the race without it. Many more towns die for want of confidence on the part of the busi ness men and lack of public spirit than from opposition of neighboring towns and adverse surroundings. A government expert says that every person in this country eats 76 pounds of sugar in a year. Evidently: this large average amount inlclud( 5 the consumption in Kentucky during the mint julep season. It is the person rather than the occupation that adds dignity to labor. There are those who can beautify the most menial occupation or service, and there are others who can do. grade the most honorable calling. n The woman who buys her goods at I the nearest corner store is just as well i b off', and just as happy in iife, as the e friend that is ripping, tearing and ii snorting from one bargain counter to Ii another in the department store. 'Spain is going to expend $t60,000,- * '000 in providing herself with a new o navy. She appears to he able to In- s< dulge in a few fashionable luxuries ir since Uncle Sam relieved her of her r< expensive and uinpro fitable colonial 4 bu~rdens. It Between 21 and ~30 a man is ill S five and a half days a year on an n average; and between 30; and 410 seven sa days. In the next ten voes he loses n eleven cdays ann.ially, and betwveen (1 50 and 60, thirty dlays. n There are two wvays of spending a n~ dollar. You canl spend it at ihome, g gain an oasy consfcieceiC, manke another friend and perhaps get the dlollar back to-miorrow.m or you send it away, feel that you have sinned1, olfond the home merchant and forever lose the dollar and the blessed influence for C good to yourself and neighbor.
