No one see satisfied. One man Is struggling to getjustice, and another is flying from it. One man is saving up to buy a house and another is trying hard to sell his dwelling for less than it cost to get rid of it. One man is spend ing all the money he can earn in taking a girl to a theatre or show and sending her valuable presents in hopes that he may eventually make her his wife and his neighbor is spending all the gold he has saved trying to get a divorce. One man keeps a pistol to protect himself against burglars, while his neighbor doesn't keep one for fear of shooting himself or some member of the family. One man pays for his paper in advance because he can read it with a greater relish, while another takes it four or five years without paying a cent Yor it, and enjoys it hugely all the while. Surely a queer old world this is. To Make Your Town Prosper. Don't fret. Talk about it. Write about it. Beautify the streets, Patronize the merchants. Be friendly to everybody. Advertise in its newspaper. Elect good men to all oflices. Don't grumble about hard times. Avoid gossip about your neighbors. Keep your side walks in good repair. Do your trading with your own mer chants. If you don't think of any good word don't say auything about it. If you are rich, invest something; em ploy somebody, be a rustler. Remember every dollar invested in permanent improvements is so much on interest. Be courteous to strangers that come among you, so that they may go away with good impressions. Always cheer on the men who go in for improvements, your portion of the: cost will be nothing only what is just. Don't kick at any proposed improve ment because it is not at your door, or fear your taxes will be raised fifty cents.
