In an inter change of values every one here has had and must have a chance to make the most of lili. self. - ffjlln lining tills he will need nnrt “use Ids fellows. No one ever suc ceeded yet in being great or pros perous as a hermit. We climb up . upon each other. It takes ns all to make and to keep civilization. A man owes himself and his fortune to society in a very large degree. Are we not all memhi ,if a groat and wealthy body politic, wherein no one can live to himself nr die without loss to the rest? Eli Let a dozen men. enhh man ntv- jllng his neighbor live dollars, sit In a Circle. I.et one of these take a five-dollar bill from bis pocket and pay Ills debt, to the man next to him. I.et this man pay his neigh bor and Hie next man pay his until the bill shall have gone round the circle and returned to the* man who started ft on its round. This man may return the hill ro his pocket with the happy conscious ness Hint ho has paid his debt and also received wlmt was due him, ,an# that every other man in Hie group has rnc -r-ne unr-mtniyn. But If Hie first man had not stnrted the bill going there would have been no aueli results. He would then have Illustrated Russia, In stead of America. #11 i'be secret of civilization Is the Ji 'renlntlon of ability. It Is the secret of prosperity. Let every tuun circulate Ids worth to society, so shall there be a true commun ism, also a true eapltnlism. There Is a conundrum which usks why- one should prefer a dollar bill to n gold dollar. The answer Is, “Be cause, when you put it into your pocket you double It, and when you take It nut you (bid It In creases.’’ l’rosperity progresses ns we pass on what we are and have. ^CROATIAN BRIDAL GOWN & A TIMELY RESOLUTION “Ralph.” said his father, “what gom resolutions are you going to make fm the new year?” ■‘I’m not going to fight with Frank Ross any more.’’ replied Ralph. “I’m glad to hear tlmt, my Imy,” said his father: ''lint why did you make flint resolution?” “’('ause.” was the answer, “I ul ways get licked.” COMES AMD GOES The record sin ws that the old year goes out and the new year ec-.nes In regardless of wlm is looking, so you might ns well get your usual sleep.
