N C-. as second class matter thy: cmisy: of thy \y vk The close of the year is always a time for serious thought ami reflection T|>e past crowds upon us as such a time with far more than usual intensi ty and especially forces upon our at tention our faults, failures and mis takes. Let us look them squarely In the face and profit by them The wise man always does this, hut the fool never. The latter goes on com. rattling the same follies and making the same mistakes never profiting by tilt experience, to say nothing of the experience of others. Every man nialtes mistakes. It may not be his f?alt the first lime, but it is if he njakes the same mistake the second tint* We believe that the secret of saadess with those who succeed, and tljd I cause of failure with those who fail, will be found largely in the abili ty and disposition to study the causes of both success and failure, not only in one's own experience, but in that of others. The farmer now has leisure to review the operations of the year, and he should do it candidly and crit ically. Make a complete analysis of every important operation. FTnd the weak places in it end trace them to their origin. Nothing will prepare one so thoroughly for the operations of the year to come as this kind of searching investigation. And while we are about tlws busi ness we should look just as carefully >? ??> our i. iird of moral r-q?,nsii iii tv. W. should he far m aavn.us r? iruproi ? i h.iruot. :? a ns.rals tl . I ? 1 ? In f.

Me and Spanish held a long consultation rh?* other night to de tide what to do next, so we decided to set a Irap for him We always heard that hanana brandy would hurst the head out of an oak barrel, much less burst a mans head open, so we prepared our ba\ina stuff on th?e branch and waited for results We itirlnt haw. long to w ait for when we went back to our grass killer plant the next da> we found every thing torn up as usual and knew that the Sheft had been there We had run off a gallon of this split skull brandy and left it where lie would lie sure to find It. bo we thought sure we would get him this time Hut the last we heard of hhn, he was doing busbies at the same old stand, and his bead was not only not busted but not even cracked. f*o wo thought out another plan We ?]ertd*d next to try him wllh wood nlcholiol and wrote Mr S K to order 30 gallons for UK Mis reply was lhat ? l wofild only be a waste of money as Bheff Tanlar was topper lined and ?wood alcohol would not hurt lilm a bit. Mr 8 K advised lis to try him wrlth water and said that as Hheff Tanlac was not used, to water, either Inside or outside, he thought this would put him out of business, said Sf It dldnt kill him he thought It would blind him ao he couldnt see how to find any more still* 80 ve hare decided to set up our next still on the Island where there Is plenty of water all around Now when Sheff Tanlaa makes his visit to this place, -we af* going to pour two gallons of pond fTater down him. then fling htm In the pond If this dont stop htm. our only hope of getting any gross killer Is to get him to make ns his depu ties. We being old hlockadera and know the r> pes and will trouble In running down the We wouldnt poor so pack water down the Sheff, but any ibm who can hold two gallons ol " qaart of grass killer, cer roo* for 2 gallons of water I <*.

K. who will be pleased to accomodate him. We are mighty sorry that we could not send you that gallon of grass killer for Krismus as promised, but our beer freezed and we couldnt work. But you may look for it as soon as the weather tnoder ates. and when you get It, we want1 you to take a big drink, then go and blow your breath in Sheff Tanlac's face and ax him if he dont wish his mouth was yourn ^RESIDENT and MONKEY.

If It were confined to youth. Many women do It until they find themselves nnd those who listen to thein in a state of physical exhaustion Men, too are n-t exempt from the practice, the reason being perhaps, that we all like to cast ourselves In the ro<e of hero, or wise gny of some sort, and we foolishly imagine that by talking of our own virtues and enlarg lng ttpon the weaknesses and errors of the other man. we strengthen our own position.
