C . a* second class matter under act of Conrress of March 3, 1879 GARY HIOTT, Editor D. W. HIOTT, JR., Manager Telephone No. 58 ; DECEMBER 4, 1919. THE DAY'S RESULTS Is anybody happier because you pass ed this way? Does anyone remember that you spoke to him today? Hue day is almost over and its toil ing time is through; Is there anyone to utter now a kindly word for you? Did you give a cheerful greeting to the friend who came along, Or a churlish sort of "howdy" and then vanish in the throng? Were you selfish pure and simple, as you rushed along the way, Or is someone mighty grateful for a deed you did today? you say tonight, in parting with the day that's slipping fast, That you helped a single brother of the many that you passed? Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said? Does a man whose hopes were fading, now with courage look ahead? ■Did you waste the day or lose it, was it well or poorly spent? Did you leave a trail of kindness or a scar of discontent ? As you close your eyes in slumber do you think that God would say, You have earned one more tomorrow by the work you did today? —Edgar S. Guest, in The King's Own. \ 9 PROVERBS FROM SPURGEON Buy not slik when you owe for milk. Better do than dream; better be than seem. She who buys bargains is often "sold." Avoid what makes in thy pocket a void. Sellers need tongues, buyers need eyes. Desired things may not be desir able. Fenr of failure is the father of failure. Why kill nettles if you grow thistles T Pegging away will win the day. Maybes are no honey-bees. Add pence to pence, for wealth comes hence. Better a. good groat than a bad bank-note. _ A maid's best dress lis bashful ness. I Fathers' fraud drives sons abroad. Play not with fire nor ill desire. To be loved, be loveable. It's risky riding when the devil's driving. Lessons learned in the cradle last to the grave. Be hr.rdy, but not hard.. The good wife's face lights up the place. Don't get a helpmeet until you've got meat to help. Better be one-sided than two-faced. If you can't be clever, you can be clean. To avoid a second quarrel, avoid the first. Better single still than wedded ill. Men's and boys' clothing at 10% dis count at the Henrietta Mills Stores.
