We hear much of the aristocracy of num. and we never ien mat a man who had such honors thrust upon him deserved any great amount of creditHe inherited the blessing, if it be ? blessing. His own accomplishments, energy and character did not bring the prize to him. He can be as mean spirited as a dog, yet retain his inheritance, and for that reason we have little use for that empty honor. Rut, as one grows older, enters into the circle of men who carry on the world's work, a new brand of aristocrat is discovered. Perhaps the word "aristocrat" is misleading. We refer to the man who is scrupulously honest, who refuses to take short cuts to wealth, who scorns to deviate a hair's breadth from the path of rectitude. We come to discover that in every community there is a small circle, a select circle, one may say, that is composed of men whose word goes far. They are considered good moral risks. They perform their promises. They guard well their obligations. This small circle is worth much to a community. They are responsible for the spirit of confidence that is of necessity at the bottom of all real prosperity. Thov fnrni flip ?rictn^rQn\F t\f liAnne The young man, beginning his business career, does not know of the existence of this select circle. If he takes the lax view of business integrity he will never make the discovery. If he begins to build his business wisely he will soon find the reality of the inner circle. He will be admitted to this aristocracy of honor. He will find himself in company with the real pillars of the business world, and he will find that it is worth while to abide in such company. BUT HOW CAN WE FINI) A REMEDY? A young man, a good friend of ours, recently visited the picture show, having paid his good dime to see the pictures. But he is out of pocket ten cents and, while an interesting picture was thrown upon the screen, our young friend failed to see the picture He tried honestly enough, hut his efforts were unavailing. "Blind?", you say. Not so. Nor is he dumb, nor is he deaf. He has two good eyes, two good ears and a mind of more than ordinary intelligence, hut in spite of all his gifts and his honest effort to see, he could not; and finally left the ....... . . piav^ in uoi> tf iiat wad iiic 111 el l* ter? Nothing more than frequently happens to one at any private gathering; his view was obstructed by big hats?big ladies' hats?that is, the hats were large, not the ladies, for it frequently transpires that the smaller the lady, the bigger the hat she dons. It is something amusing to see one of these big hats float in like a ship in full sail, deliberately cast anchor just in front of you and seem to say: "See me; it's worth ten cents." The only trouble about it is that one may visit a millinery store and see a dozen without charge. It is also possible for one to take his stand on the street corner and view these ships as they navigate our streets. This is not so bad, especially when the commodious ships frequently carry a pretty face. But who cares to be confronted with a mountain of feathers, felt, straw, ribbon and banners when beyond these creations of the milliner is the objectone desires to see, has paid good money to see. And the unconcern of the dear ladies! The utter indifference they manifest in the matter! It is something amazing and so amazingly selfish. We do not hope to bring about a reform in this matter, but merely register the complaint. It is a dangerous thing to meddle with a woman's headgear. If she wishes to put a mighty ship on her head and come to anchor just in front of you-' range of vision, you must stand it. He a gentleman and jump to give up your seat to the ladies, accept the blocked range of vision and keep your tongue turned to say pleasant things. But it is a big job to do this, little as one may think of it. We respectfully (?) suggest to our law-makers the wisdom of passing a law limiting the 1 diameter of ladies' hats to one yard. That would help a little. They might, while they are at it, limit the length , ?* Special Advertisements im J a FOR SALE" CHEAP?Two-thirds less pht than cost.
