AlfMwt of
A grain of prudence is worth a
pound of craft.
Boasters are cousins to liars.
Denying a fault doubles it.
Envy shoots at others and
wounds here elf.
Foolish fear doubles danger.
God teaches us good things by
our own hands.
He has worked hard who has
nothing to do.
It costs more to revenge wrongs
than to suffer them.
Knavery is the worst trade.
Learning makes a man fit com-
pany for himself.
Modesty is a guard to virtue.
Not to hear conscience is the
way to silence it.
One hour today is worth two
tomorrow.
Proud looks make foul work in
fair faces.
Quiet conscience is quiet sleep.
8ome faults indulged are little
thieves that let in greater ones.
The boughs that bear most,
hang lowest.
Upright walking is sure walk-
ing.
Virtue and happiness are
mother and daughter.
Wise men make more oppor-
tunities than they find.
You never lose by doing a good
act.
Zeal without knowledge is fire
without light. _

ELECTRIC LIGHT CONSUMERS.
All bills for illumination must
be paid before the 10th of the
month or the current will be
turned off without further notice,
beginning Jan. 1st 1898. One
months rate and $1.00 in advance
must then be paid before current
will be turned on.

A Funny Law.
A bill has passed the Texas
legislature prohibiting tho pay
nient of taxes in scrip. Just why
a state or county should refuse
to redoem its paper at 100 cents
on the dollar is hard for us to un-
derstand. Just why tho county
should yank a man up and put
him on a jury for several days
and then pay him in scrip which
he could not use in paying his
taxes, seems to us wrong. It
looks like throwing the citizen
further into the hands of the man
who is on the lookout for bar-
gains in scrip.—Ex.

The Harrison Dry Goods Co,
There is nothing so healthy in
this world as a cheerful heart
and a disposition to look on the
rosy side of everything. Trouble
is not physical ailment, but a
mental condition. It is hard on
the brain, hard on tho body and
hard on our friends. A clear
conscience, a brave heart and
healthy liver mean a long and
happy life. It is the mistake of
the age to worry and fret over
things that cannot be helped or
hopes that cannot be realized.
Laugh at trouble and it vanishes.
And now comes a statistician
who claims that since 1803 there
have been forty bicycle deaths to
every death from football. The

It wits a lovely lumrner evening.
Everything botokened life, joy nnd
bounty. The one was young and in
experienced. He was of u poetic (lis
position nnd npoke long and enthu-
ninstioally of tho beauties of nature
nnd of lovely women.
"But, after all, this is an age of
rteoay," he exclaimed sadly, stop,

phrase. "What ih there to be «•;»
thusiastic about now f The grandeur
of tho pent—v/liore i« it? Whore, for
instance, nre tho bright girls of tho
past!"
The other man was older. He wue
colder and p^onalc by nature.
"i think 1 can answer that qnes
lion," he replied slowly. "From my
own personal observation 1 should
consider it wife to but 10 to 1 that
at this present moment manyot the
bright girlw of the punt nre engaged
in 'tubbing'some of the bright girl*
cf the future before putting them
to bed."—Pearson's Weekly.
