That’s what we call Posterity Furniture.
That is the kind of furniture we sell: Dependable, old-fashion Furniture, new only in style and design.
We have Bed Room Suits, Chairs, Tables; a complete line of the best Posterity goods

STICK-TO-IT-IVENESS.
We :i II know the man who could do
good work -if lie would.
He abounds In every line of human
endeavor. He is not exactly careless
or lacking 1,1 ambition, for often lie
works by fits and starts
He doesn't last.
He will not stick at anything long
enough to accomplish good results or
to do all that he could. He Is often
a procrasltnmor. putting off today’s
task until tomorrow. He falls to realize
that the case of doing a thing decreases
by geometrical progression us it Is put
off-that Is, tomorrow It is twice as
hard as it is today, the next day it
will be four times as difficult, the fol
lowing day eight times, and bo on un
til it becomes impossible.
Someone stskeil Anthony Trollope,
the novelist whose works were very
popular a few decades sigo and are
still read by many, for bis recipe for
getting through so much work.
“The best recipe I know for novel
writing.” said Mr. Trollope, "is a patch
of cobbler's wax on (be seat of m.v
chair. And I take great pains to sit
upon it.”
He possessed the secret of stick to It
iveness.
Hr. Johnson said. "A man may write
at any time if lie will set himself dog
gedly to il.’' Same idea as Trollope's,
you sire. Imt not expressed so figura
tively.
And a man may not only write, hut
do anything else that is within the
I’ompass of his powers if tie will set
himself doggedly to it.
It is perseverance that counts, not
genius. Some of the wisest of men
have expressed disbelief in the inspira
tion that goes generally by the name
of genius. For example, Edison said
that in his opinion genius is one-tenth
inspiration and nine-tenths perspira
tion. He is a shining example of won
derful success achieved by hard work,
although, of course, with the endow
ment of tremendous brain power.
There is a slang pb-ase which ex
presses the idea of perseverance as
well, perhaps, as any short formula
can. It is:
Go to itl
if you have anything to do that Is
worth doing, go to it
And after you have gone to it and
yo# find that it takes longer than you
thought at the outset—

HOW OLD IS YOUR SOUL?
You know, of con iso. how old your
hoilv is Kver.v one knows, with more
or less exactness, although he or she
may not I e willing to make the knowl
edge public.
But how old is your soul?
Is II young in enthusiasm mid the
Joy of living, the thrill of Interest In
your own life and the lives of others?
Is it fresh and alert, or is It dying In
the depths of pessimism and Indiffer
ence?
I .is ten to this -
• I still feel young. You know it is
our souls that make us young or old.
If our souls he young, though our bod
ies be ns old ns Methuselah, we are
young indeed."
It Is Cardinal millions, head of the
Homan Catholics of the United States,
who is talking at the physical age of
seventy-nine.
Others before him have tohl ns not
to let the sunset of oar lives he tinged
with the shades of helpless resigna
tion. as to an evil.
If we keep otir souls young we may
he young as young as we please. We
may retain the outlook on life of the
youngest among us Instead of that of
the helpless, hopeless aged.
We may he as lusty and vigorous In
mind and spirit as the young man,
though our physical selves he afflicted
with the infirmities of age.
It is the age of the soul that counts
most.
‘‘We live in deeds, not years; in
thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not
In figures on a dial,” says til" poet
Bailey.
It is sad to note that there are
among the young in body some who
are old in soul. They have sold their
birthright of hope and Joyousness and
a cheerful outlook on life for a mess
of weariness and doubt
They are to be pitied, not blamed
They need tonics for the soul.
They need uplifting in faith in life
and its ultimate good, in belief In bu
inanity and Its essential righteousness.
They need to lie aroused by a trumpet
call "to look outside of themselves and
their own concerns, to view the uni
verse ns a whole
So do the young in soul view the
world. It unfolds to them ever newer
and more beautiful wonders. It tells
them that life Is given to us all to lie
lived In the greatest measure of which
we are (apatite, not lie shirked or con
temned as something to lie got through
with a* soon as possible.

undertaking business. In design,
it is large, strong and equipped
witli flexible springs that permit it
to traverse over roads of a verying
character without undue jarring
or motion of the superstucture.
Its deep black color, artistic trim
mings and fine, heavy-plated glass,
combine to make it attractive in
point of appearance; and its clever
lines are featured throughout the
structure of the substantial vehicle.
With its solid rubber tires, it is
practically, noireless and shock
proof-Automatic lock doors add to
its superior equipment. Prior to
making a selection of a funeral car
for the undertaking department of
his furniture establishment, Mr.
T. C. Little visited several large
cities in order to study the designs
and important poitds of structure
and finish incident to modern fu
neral cars. Asa result his selection
represent the highest production
in funeral car construction-art and
the vehicle secured would do credit
to a city of proportions far in ad
vance of Commerce. —Commerce

Golf Ball Poacher*.
Many complaints have been re
ceived by the police lately of the
loss of golf balls from the Epplng For*
est links, while actually in play. It
Is alleged that gangs of youths gather
at places on the links where the play*
ers cannot see the balls fall, and that
the balls disappear sometimes even
when they fall on the fairway. As
the result of a watch kept by the po
lice In trees and behind hedges, sev
eral prosecutions have taken place
recently.—London Mail.
