Some things every town
A liar, a sponger, a sm
its richest man, some
girls, a girl who giggles,
weather prophet, a
hood feud, half a dozen
a woman who talks., a
who knows it all, more
than it needs, a boy who
up in church’ a few
old women, a preacher
thinks he ought to run
town, a stock law that is
enforced, a bachelor who is
gay for his age, some men
make remarks about women,
few who know how to rvn
affairs of tke town, a
young man who laughs every
time he says anything, a girl
who goes to the postoffice every
time the mail comes, a legion
of putty heads who can tell the
editor how to run his paper,
scores of men with the caboose
of their trousers worn smooth

you talk and laughs out loud
after ho has said something.-
To Encourage Matrimony.
Frenchmen are becoming a
larmed at the low and decreas
ing birth rate in the.r
and steps are being taktn to
encourage matrimony. A de
creehas been issued by the new
Minister of War abolishing the
requirement that every officer
of the army who m:irri;s shall
receive wjth h;s bride, as a dot,
sutp producing not less than
whq envy me," The enterview

Happiness and Wealth.
A London paper reports an
interview with Miss Rockefeller,
daughter of the Amencan pe
troleum king- After putting
several questions which the
young woman readily auswered,
the euterprising interviewer
ventured to siy
‘•And now, tell me, as you no
doubt belong to the class of the
most envied of all women, wheth
er I may presume that you
happy ? » 1 Miss Rockefeller is
repoited to have replied • ‘“Hap
py? Can one buy happiness
with money? Are ti:ere not
many things to make us quite
un.iappy which money
change, abd then are not spoil
ed ones more positive in the
principles of life than the others?
No; I am not happy, and you

the rich arc no more free from
wretchediless than the poor, al¬
though their trials may come
in a somewhat different shape
The fact is the pursuit of hap¬
piness based upon merely mate¬
rial or worldly things is decep¬
tive to rich and poor alike. If
it were possible for men and
women to be perfectly happy in
th'8 world, they wou ! d not care
for another existence which is
called the true land of the liv¬
ing, and where perfect happi¬
ness can alone be found. Soon¬
