In and near large towns. It is a case
of go go go morning noon and
night It is go to the theatre go to
the moving picture 'shows go to the
resorts go to the restaurants go to
the card parties go to the opera go
to picnics go shopping and if there
Is no other place to go they go down-
town. Every time they go it is an
outlay of from 10 cents to $10. An-
other habit which contributes to the
high cost of living is that of having
others do that which persons could do
for themselves. Instead of having
others do their baking and garment
repairing people should get back to
"grandfather's day" and do those
things themselves. Exchange.
We have noticed for some time the
people have been afflicted with go go

that It is not the g. o. p. habit

EIGHTEEN DOLLARS A WEEK TO
WEALTH.
An eighteen-dollar-a-week workman
at a machine shop forge in the latter
eighties Samuel Vauclaln now vice
president and general manager of the
Baldwin Locomotive Works has
nought for 1100000 an estate of 550
acres In Delaware county. He will
build two palatial homes and stock
the estate with the finest horticul-
tural exhibits that money can pro-
vide. Probably one of the highest salaried
corporation officials in the country
his rise has been rapid. Entering the
fit locomotive plant as a workman
was promoted to foreman to super-
tendent to general manager. Phil-
elphla Telegram to the New York

He had the grit the energy the
bulldog sticktoltlveness. In other
words he was willing to pay the price.
;For every young man possessing these
characteristics a wreath of victory
has already been woven.
There is one element of life causing
the high cost of living and that is the
"go" habit acquired by persons living
Thermopylae Austerlitz Lodi nor
even the Alamo itself have given to
the world a greater example of hero-
ism than that of the Catholic nuns
who gave their lives to save the lives
of the little children in the burning
of St. John's orphanage at San An-
tonio yesterday. It was more like the
vicarious sacrifice of Calvary.

Frankie ought to be ashamed of her-

Vice President James Schoolcraft
Sherman is dead. He was a good and
great man. In his death all party
lines are wiped out and the whole na-
tion mourns the death of its illus-
trious citizen and statesman.
After next Tuesday what mode of
amusement will Tedy adopt? He has
played in such big games that nothing
short of "the crack of doom" and the
"wreck of worlds" will interest him.
When the polls close Tuesday
Teddy's hat and Champ Clark's noun'

this season; and we have a fine
showing of them; styles for
young men especially.

your style good; but it's even
more important to have the all-

one of the new two-button sack styles

style in many good weaves from $18 up.

Reason For It.
At a debuting society some time ago
the Irish question was discussed. An
English doctor was sustaining the ar
gument that the Irish were naturally
a race with right sentiments but poor-
ly developed. At Liverpool he said he
had 300 Irish patients on his books and
of these only thirty paid him for at-
tendance. .
"Sorr" said an Irishman who rose
with flushed cbeek to defend his coun-
trymen "sorr there Is never an effect
without a cause. There is never n
phenomenon that does not admit of an
explanation. How cun we explain the
astounding phenomenon to which thp
doctor bus called our attention? Ho
finds an explanation in the natural
depravity of the Irish nature. 1. sorr.
