The hundreds involved in the

HOW SHALL WE BUILD UP THE
TO WN.
Tho aspirations of the humblest,
burger and of the dweller in “tho
city full”, under the general view
of the effect of community prosper
ity upon individual interest, con-
stantly leaed to the mental and oral
discussion of this question.
Sell-interest leads the far seeing
to work for the up-building of his
neighbor-hood, whether tho soul of
tlmt humanity which wishes the
neighbor to prosper dwells in him
or not. Alas 1 how-ever, men’s
selfishness in this connection, often
over-reaches, and results in tho ex
emplification of Solomon’s proverb;
“There is that with-holdeth more
thau is meet, but it tendeth to pov
erty”; and reminds the readers of
Bunyan, of his quaint pereonifica-
bly fortunate in the character of
her citizons, is evhiood by her pres*
ent condition. But success tends
to mako our race selfish, and ws
must watch the uvonues of our
hearts iu proportion to pecuniary
prosperity, and wo dare to say at a
venture, not knowing anything
about it, that somo of our citizens
have harder struggles with selfish-
uess than when they were less pros
perous. This we say, beauso it is
according to the common order of
things. Fellow-townsmen, let us
not forget that the converse of tho
above quotation from Solomon is
true, viz : “There is that scattoroth,
and yet increuseth”; i. o., by re
leasing a dollar forthe public good,
while we enjoy seeing tho public
blest by it, wo may have it return
to us multiplied.
▲gain, if a strung* r -asks for
room to work beside you don’t
wantonly dig him in the ribs with
yo*Ur elbow, nor say to him by your
treutraeut, “you aro not wanted”-
Have you ever had to start as a
stranger in a community? If not,
you have no idea how such appre
ciate tho respect and kindness of
the tenderly considorato, nor how
they are weighted by the sullen
contempt or indift'enco of the churl
ish. When yon know a man to bo
a ctirsc to tbe social or business
interest, then crowd him out of the
ranks, if you can’t reform him.
Tbe last, but not the least thing
we notice this time, is the impor
tance of gentlemanly deportment.
Wo want to have our fun, and that
is all right if it does not interfere
with others, or involve us in sin,
but we should never let it, or any
thing else, interfere with the peace
or comfort of others, for, to say
nothing of tho courtesy thut is due
the unoffending, if our behavior is
such as to shock even the most
nervous, murk it, we will lose by it.

Death shall be to a life of worldli-
