We do not believe in fighting unless it is absolutely necessary, and differences cannot possibly be settled in any other way, as it is the part of foolishness for two sensible, well balanced men to have a difficulty. When you find out though that a fight is inevitable the quicker you get at it the soon er it will be over, because the long er it is put off and wrangled over the harder will be the conflict when it does come. The more you endeavor to pacify same people the more obstreperous they become. The same rule ap plies to Nations. We have thought for several years that a fight with Mexico was inevitable and it would seem from present appearances that we were right. Uncle Sam’s soldiers will now possibly have to face the modern guns purchased from the United States by the Mexicans.

One of the most important les sons any individual, young or old, can lenin is the value of time; foi time is not only money but can be turned into money if the habit of thrift attends its use. Those who employ labor quickly realize the importance of the time element in all business transactions, for , the labor cost, which is so vital an ele ment in the cost of everything, de pends upon the thriftinSss of the worker in the use of his time. The minute that does not produce something is not only a wasted minute but a costly ' minute to somebody. Many a man fails be cause he cannot get results from labor. Children should be taught to re gard,the time they are not in school as an opportunity to earn money. It should not be idle time, or mere ly play time, for the child does not need recreation so much as a change of occupation. Most of us play too much; and the child that taught to turn the out of school hours into recreation that brings returns has learned one of life’s most helpful lessons. The young nr an or won an stait- ing out in a business career needs to learn the same lesson,—that the time out of business is not merely for play, biit for self improvement. It is not what you do between eight and six that brings bussincss success hut what you do from six to eight. Visit any of the Young Men’s Christian Associations that run study classes, or the night schools, and you will find a body of young men and' womoti who properly value the spare time business al lows and are using it for self im provement. These are marked men. They are bound to win. They will, get somewhere because they are willing to pay the price in self denial. They figure that three or four nights a week for a year or two will add materially to their power do, and power to do com mands its compensation. We puy trained men, and nowhere is train ing so easily to be had as in the spare hours. A young man applied to a bank recently, saying that he worked nights and had a few hours a day to give to other work and wanted to help the family by these added efforts. He has the right stuff in him. In the daily papers comes the story of a man who was in a like position, and, seeing an adver tisement for a man who could give a little extra time to the work in mind, answered it and added ten dollars a week to his salary for eleven years with no injustice to other demands. He was the only applicant. The world is full of disgruntled and dissatisfied individuals who would be happier and far better off if they would stop whining and complaining, and look around for opportunities to earn extra money or spend the spare hours in prepar ation for the greater opportunities that open to the trained man and woman. The correspondence schools have done wonders in train ing students lor'better things, and merit the thanks of all who are in terested in the improvement of the race. Thrift of time will make a man rich beyond his fondest dreams, and waste of it will make him poor, however rich he may be, and the best lesson you can teach your child—yea, the best lesson you can learn yourself, is to use the time you are not working for your boss, or sleeping, or resting, in such a way that it will put dollars in your pocket or brains in your head. It is likely to do both. — Nursery Bargain / will sell my entire pecan nursery, comprising about twenty thousand trees.
