For the cloudiest night has a hint of light Somewhere In ltd shadows hiding; It is better by far to hunt for a star, Than the spots on the sun abiding.” Do not keep yijur politeness to put on with your good clothes, because if you do you will surely forget it soipelime when you most wish it, and even if you re member in which pocket you have it you will be stiff, and plainly show that it is not natural. Cul tivate politeness, not only for what outsiders will say, but be cause it is the right thing ta. do, one of your many talents to make good use of, and anything .that improves always increases our self-respect as well as the good opinion ,of the world. "The boy is father of the man” in more ways than one. The boy who is willing to do faithful la bor, either at or away from home, for little more than his board and clothes, is fitting himself for a position of usefulness and better pay in the future. It is the boy who attends strictly to business and makes his employer’s inter ests his own, who will make his mark as a business man. An in dustrious, energetic, painstaking boy or young man never wants for a place, and these with sta bility of character, are all the recommendations needed. And these are so plain that every business man reads them and mentally concludes: "That boy will succeed becausg he deserves H. W. NALLEY, Attorney-nt-Law. Office in Old Court Houso. Dallas, ga.

Short Road to Misery, Begin by fancying that no one cares for you; that you are not of any us* to anybody—a sort of nonentity in the household, where vour place would not be missed, but easily supplied. Reflect on your want of beauty, and lead yourself to believe that no one can love a plain face, or think you agreeable because there are others more charming. Fancy that every one who looks upon you makes a mental comparison which militates against you in faver of some one else. Imagine that every word said in jest is only meant to cover a deeper and more painful meaning—that ev ery article of wearing apparel you don is criticised and ridicul ed. Do all this and your ten dency'to morbidity of feeling will so increase that in a very short time yon will become one of the most miserable of human beings. Answering Children’s Questions. Anyone who has the ability to ask a question that to him is worth asking, has the capacity to receive an answer that to him is worth receiving. A thoughtful child, on iuquiring the location of Heaven, was told by his moth er that he could not understand her, even if she' explained it. She was probably right in eo far as the child’s ability to under stand her was concerned; but she was wrong m not telling him that the fault was with herself and not with him.' Had she known as much about answering him as he knew about question ing her, there need have been no trouble about his understanding her explanation. There is no question that a child can serious ly and fairly ask that cauuot be as seriously and fairly answered. To tell a child or to lead it to in fer that it is "too little” to konw anything more on any subject about which it already knows enough to frame a question, is to deny its capacity for further growth. It is to thrust the child’s mind into a dungeon, instead of bpenirg it to the light. It is to blind it in fetters, instead of giv ing it freedom of action. Ability to ask, presupposes capacity to receive. And no questions are better worth answering or worth better answers than a child’s. Who does not dread the visitor who starts, then thinke of some thing else to say; rises, and then thinks of another subject of con versation ; nearly reaches the door, and, most probably holding it open, is aronsed to a degree of mental brilliancy that threatens his health and that of his host or hostess by long detaining of both in a cold draft while he dis courses? What a tax on the pa tience and politeness of the list ener, who vainly strives, by as senting instantly to every Depo sition to end the interview and break the restraining bond of po lite attention. The Road to Success. The world is wide. If yon wish lobe somebody, "pitchin.” The brave always have friends. Where others have gone you cau go. If the old track don’t suit you, make a new one; somebody will Walk in it. Don’t hurry too fast, especially till yon know the road or become acquainted with your team. Mind your own busi ness and loox after it yourself. Don’t stop to club whiflitB or to retail gossip. You may grow weary, but remember this is not a world of ease, and rest lies be yond. Success is never obtained in a country like this without ef fort. If you fail once, tfy again. If you fall down, get up. If it is dark strike a light. If you are m the shade, move around; If there is shade on one side there is sure to be sunshine on the oth er. It takes longer to skin an elephant than a mouse, but then the skin is worth something. Never be content with doing what another has done—exeel him. A trade is a good thing to have; it is better than gold— brings a larger premium. But to make apremium, the trade must be perfect—-no silver plated af fair. Determine in yonr mind to be a good workman, or let the job ont. Learning a trade is dif ferent from eating mush and milk—mechanical education does not slip down without chewing. Never slight yonr work, never, Every job you do is a sign. Poor signs are against success. Peo pie always speak well of a boy who minds his own business and who seems to be disposed to be somebody in time. This is a queer wprld; many people are watching us, andhelp often comes when and from whom we least expect. Confidence is the safe in which men often deposit rich treasures, and as yon prove worthy so will yonr reward of success be. There is a reward in success, which none but those who strive can enjoy. Deserve success and it will come. A MISPLACED SWITCH. ' Which Explained Why th* Minister Didn't Touch th* Salad. Heedless of tho fact that it was Sunday evening and that tho larder might be, and iu fact was expected to be, rather low, Deacon Black had invited tho minister to supper. Mrs. Black, mindful of tho fact that a small salnd wns all that could be placed on tho board, was horrified at her husband’s invitation, but ^vitli truo hospitality attempted to make thy best of tho situation. Leading from tho parlor to the dining room is a passage, dark and so narrow that but one cau pass in comfort at a timo. With a woman’s quick wit, Mrs. Black, who had como into tho parlor after laying what she could find on tho table, de termined to uso a variation of tho “family holdback” that so often plays a part when tho unexpected guest lias come. Following her husband into tho passago on the way to tho tablo, sho clutched an arm and, pulling down his head, whispered vehemently: , “Don’t touch that salad, for good ness’ sake 1” “All right,” ho answered in n sim ilar whisper. Then tho party pro ceeded to tho table. ‘I am- very sorry, Mrs. Black,” exclaimed tho minister as the party soatod themselves, “but I feel a lit tle indisposed from tho heat today, and I think I will have only a cup of tea.” ‘Why, that’s too bad!” the wife remarked. “I did want you to have a good iRppcr.” “You didn’t suy anything to mo about fooling ill,” put in Deacon Black, who despite tne warning had helped himself to a largo portion of the main dish. “If I had known that I wouldn’t have pressed you to come.” Tho clergyman passed tho situa tion off with some light remark and after"* suitable period took his de parture. “Well, John,” said Mrs. Black, “I’m glad for your sako that the doctor couldn’t cat much, for thcro was so little, and I know how fond you arc of salad.” “Yea,” said her husband, “but there would have been enough to go around, I guess. I can’t under stand why tho doctor accepted my invitation if he was ill.” “Anyway,” she answered, “I’m glad I caught you in the passage and warned you about the salad.” “Passage! Salad! What are you talking about?” ho exclaimed. “John Black, didn’t I speak to you in tho passage?” his wifo al most screamed. “Why, no. Tho doctor let mo go ahead of him after wo started!” cried Block. “What did you say ?” Thread and Needl* Tree*. Did you ever hour of the thread and needlo tree? Bather a handy tree to have in the garden, don’t you think, especially when there are boys in the house, with buttons con tinually corning off their clothes? This strango tree grows in nearly all tropical countries. At tho tip of the leaf there is a sharp thorn, which is tho needle. If you grasp it firmly and pull it out a long thread of fiber comes with it, and there you are—with a needle al ready threaded for your sewing. The fiber thread is very strong, and the Mexicans use it for weaving a coarse kind of cloth as well as for sewing. The leaves of the tree they use for roofing their houses instead of tiles, and a fine roof they make with them, strong and waterproof —just the sort of roof that is need ed in a country where the rain pours down in sheets. Saved Hi* Mol*****. A traveler came along to the gate of a humble cabin in a town in Al abama just as an old negro handed a couple of jugs to his son, who was about ten years of age, and said, “Now, Julius, yo’ gwan down to do S scery an’ git A quart o’ treaola in • ob dem jogs an’ hurry back.” When the boy had gone the traveler said to the father: “You didn’t tell him to get any thing in the other jug. Is he going to leave it at the grocery?" ‘‘No, sah; gwan to bring it right back home,” he replied. “But why send two jugs to get a quart of treacle V’ “It’s jes’ dis way, Bah: If he has a jug in each hand, he can’t go dip- pin’ his finger in the treacle an' eat- 5* it as be comes alongA Bank of Dallas THE BANK THAT MADE PAULDING COUNTY GROW ESTABLISHED 1899 / We do not care to continue to worry our friends, those of them who are keeping gold hid away at their homes. We do desflc to to tell them about one feature of this habit of concealing gold about the house, that they perhaps do not know about, and to warn them ot the consequence*. There is a probability of your house burning down. A great many people think if the house burns down on their bag of gold that they can sift the ashes and get it again, and that the United States gov ernment will make it good to them. There was never a greater mistake good frieud. If you have gold or silver hid about your house and the house burns down you may dig around in the ashes and finally get every piece of your mon ey, but it will be almost absolutely worthless. If it is not too badly melted and stuck together the United/States government will allow you 15 or 20 cents on the dollar. The reason we know this to be true we have recently seen it tried. A party brought in $12.50 in dollars, halves and quarters that had been picked from the ashes of a building that had burned. The house^as a small two room house. The coins were disfigured and some of them stuck together. We sent them to Washing ton and got back in return the sum of $4.00 and some odd cents. In the letter of advice from the government at Washington we were advised that the same rule applies to gold coin burned in a fire. Under these circumstances friends, we say it plainly but kindly, it is foolishness, absolute fool ishness to keep gold or silver about your homes, or paper money as to that matter, when you can deposit it in the Bank of Dallas and draw s l A% on it, and get it any time you may need it.
