and asked the proprietor for a pound of
nails. The ?mall package was made ap
and the price, a nickel, handed to the mer-'J*

merchant assented and, calling an errand

"Here, J oh n; take the car and take this

"What!" said the customer, "are yon going

Pension Notice.
I will be in the Auditor's office every
< . Saturday in January, 1906, from 10
o'clock, a. m., until 3 o'clock p. m., for
I the purpose of writing up and preparing
A ' applications for those that wish to go
I; v; before the county pension board, which
.;r meets the first Monday in February, 1906.
* : All those that are already on the pension
roll will please report in person or by
mail. C. R. Clayton,
;i Pension Commissioner.
The Lewis and Clark exposition will
pay all expenses and return a neat dividend
to the enterprising men who advanced
the money. This speaks well for
themanagers and for all interested. It
is the second exposition of more than
"local prominence to return money to the
^subscribers, the first being the TransMississippi
exposition at Omaha, which
returned a fraction over 10 per cent.
We would urge on our people the benefits
of early shopping. Do not wait until
Christmas Eve to make your holiday
purchases, but start right in today or tomorrow
and get the work done. You
can do it better and with much less discomfort
and inconvenience than will be
the case if the business is put off till the
r last.of the week when all the stores are
rushed to their utmost capacity. Do
your shopping early.
How Joka Bar ftegarded critics.
John Hay was chatting about his literary
experiences with an intimate
friend when the latter asked:
"John, what feature or phase of this
writing business has impressed you the
most?'
"Well," was the reply, and the speaker's
eyes twinkled mischievously, "so
far as I am concerned, ifs the things
that the critics fish out of a fellow's
v printed stuff that he never put there.
But I suppose that critics, like the rest
of us, have to show excuses for living."
?Success Magazine.
Crockett's Revenfc.
There is a story of Crockett of
"Stickit Minister" fame to the effect
that when he offered his first volume to
a Scotch firm they returned it with a
polite note assuring him that there
was no market for that sort of thing.
The letter was marked "No. 806b." In
later years when the same publishers
asked him for one of his manuscripts
he politely requested them to refer to
their previous correspondence with
him marked "396b."

THE GAME OF LIFE.
To?r Own Resolution, and Rot Fat*
Deal* the Card*.
I Many a man has tried to justify his
failure on the ground that he was
doomed by the cards which fate dealt
him, that he must pick them up an<5
play the game and that no effort, how
ever great, on his part could materially
change the result But my young
friend, the fate that deals your cards
Is in the main your own resolution
Hie result of the game does not rest
with fate or destiny, but with you.
You will take the trick if you have the
superior energy, ability and determlna
tion requisite to take it. You have tin
-power within yourself to change the
value of the cards which, you say, fate
has dealt you. The game depends upor
your training, upon the way you are
disciplined to seize and use your op
portunlties and upon your ability tc
put grit in the place of superior advantages.
Just because circumstances do sometimes
give clients to lawyers and patients
to physicians, put commonplace
clergymen in uncommon pulpits and
place the sons of the rich at the head
of great corporations even when they
have only average ability and scarcely
any experience, while poor youths
with greater ability and more experience
often hav.e to fight their way for
years to obtain ordinary situations,
are you justified in starting out without
a chart or in leaving a place for
luck in your programme? What would
you think of the captain of a great
liner who would start out to sea without
any port in view and trust to lucfe
to land his precious cargo safely?
Did you ever know of a strong young
man making out his life' programme
and depending upon chance to carry
out any part or it / Men woo aepenu
upon "lack" do not think it worth
while to make a thorough preparation
for success. They are not willing to
pay the regular price for it They are
looking for bargains. They are hunting
for short cuts to success.
Power gravitates to 'the man who
knows how. "Luck is the tide, nothing
more. The strong man rows with it if
it makes toward his port He rows
against it if it flows the other way."?
Success.
WAYS OF SWEDEN.
It Is light all night in summer and
dark all day in winter. \
Although drinking is common, one
seldom sees a drunken mam
Everybody trusts you, and you are
expected to trust everybody.
Ton take off your hat when you enter
a shop and return the shopman's
low bow.
A servant who brings you something
says, "So good." You say, Tack"
(thanks).
You get a bill every day at the hotel.
This permits you to correct any mistakes
at once.
A barber will shave you for 6 cents,
but you have to wash your own face
and comb your own hair.
Tips are everywhere given, but they
nr? small. Ten ore (2V> cents) is the
ordinary tip to a cabman or porter.
A lady always waits for a gentleman
to speak instead of the reverse, as In
America?Minneapolis Journal.
How a Great Aetor Lived.
Charles. Mathews, one day previous
t'o the period of his publicly proclaimed
dire bankruptcy, invited a friend to
dine with him. The walnuts were
washed down by some rare sherry.
"That's a delicious wine," his friend
exclaimed. "It must have cost you a
lot of money." "It didn't cost me anything
that I know of," the flighty comedian
answered, with a shrug. "You
had it given to you, then?" the friend
suggested. "Oh, no," answered Mathews;
"I bought it from Ellis, in Bond
streetP "But he will charge you something
for it?' the friend exclaimed in
astonishment "I believe he does write
something down in a book," Charles retorted
gravely. "Let's have another
glass, my boy."
G. Frank Bamberg handles the best
buggies and wagons, yet the prices
