All trustees should bear in mind that

Wise ahu umcrni2sc?
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.
The Christmas spirit is measured by
the heart, not by the dollar.
Ever notice how easy it is for the
baby to get hold of something that it
shouldn't have?
If you are beginning to worry about
how much your Christmas gifts are going
to cost you, don't make any.

tricta. 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. By getting together
anyone who is not familiar with the
method of proceeding under these
acts, will have an opportunity to find
ont exactly what to do, if he so desires.
There are many other topics that
will be discussed and it is vitally important
that all should be present.

'You look pretty.' There ia a difference
as wide 'as the wideness of

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

for makiajt herself acceptable to the
public than the pretty girl doea?also

When Count Tolstoy was a young

Beariy ended fatally. When the beast
charged him Tolstoy fired aud missed.
He fired a second shot, which hit the
bear's jaw and lodged between his
teeth. Tolstoy was knocked down, falling
with his face in the snow. "There,'*
he thought; "all is over with me." He

The Real Old Article,
The straager In Boston was inter*
ested to the old family names of that
city. He bore a strong letter of introduction
to a prominent townsman.
"1 can give you from memory the
names of sil the old families of our
city." the prominent townsman Mid.
sod he rattled off two or three dozens
et an amazing rate.
The stranger looked up from his
copy pad expectantly.
Mle that all?" he ashed.
MI hare given yon a complete list of
Boston's leading families." the prominent
townsman replied. "Not one of
them dates back leas than six geoera*
teas."
The straager stared.
"But sorely yon have other old fam?
files of note in Boston?"
"Merely transients," icily replied the

Good and Bad.
A remarkably brief, effective rot*tthtg
sp was once quoted by Conl
dames to aa after dinner speech. It
was delivered by an Irish judge trying
a sat*. far pig stealing. The evidence
ef fcfia guilt was conclusive, but the
> < prisoner insisted on calling a number
mf wife?pa who testified most em*
' pfcatteaily to hi? general good character,
iter hearing their evidence and the

Not Her Fault.
The Distress comes home without,
warning. She finds the maid tn gala

"Why. what do yo? mean.8* she cries,
"by wearing my best black skirt?"
"It is not my fault." replies the maid.

Volcanic Ash.
The destructive Philippine volcanoes!
have value fo" one thing at least,
save a writer in the Pacific Monthly.
They are directly responsible for the
finest hemp producing area In the
