When monks wit,h much pain taking care illumined the printed page initialed manuscripts so rare were doubtless all the rage; as cu riosities today those pages while like a shop girls chews her gum. When Bibles were so valuable they had to chain 'em down and pariies who could read would act as if they owned the town, to write your name was like Kingdom Come Today we do our reading like a shop girl chews her gum. Though lots that's written today is trash, there's much that can be found worth reading; though the price is cheap, books, newspapers abound , and for the many millions now the printing process hum, and reading is a habit just the same as chewing gum.

TANNER'S ROOF Fffll fierce n SOLD BY Hardware 15 ehead If there is anything that will make a woman throw good resolu tions to the wind quicker than she made them, it is a mouse. A young woman arrived at one of the New York hotels and before retiring at night she decided to straighten up the things in the closet of her room. She was sing ing over her work and was doing nicely until she discovered two shining little beads in one corner and decided there must be a lost hatoin there, So she reached out to take it. What her hand met was soft and covered with hair. It was a mouse. The yell that ema nated from that room convinced everybody tangoing several floors above that cruel murder was afoot, and there was scramble to the hall wavs. The young woman finally succeeded in opening the door of her room and informed the gath ering crowd what a narrow escape she had from annihilation. Now there is a standing reward of $5 for the head of that mouse de tached from the rest of the mouse If ii ever annears again, there's no telling what may happen. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S C ASTDRI A RATHER SELFISH. John D. Rockefeller, Jr.. was congratulated at a Denver reception because on learning that his Colora .do mine had a deficit for the year d $400,000, he merely said that ihe would proceed with his welfare work on a larger scale than ever. "Well, you see," said Mr.Rock efdler, "we are trying to put a mew spirit into the relations of em ployer and employe. The old 'fielfa h relations were rather-well, :rathevr like Mrs. Smith's relations to her nusband. Smith came home one evening :and said dismally : . "Well, I've got to give up smo 'kine.

Watch nioht in Rillville verv hiesest crowd That ever helped the heathen or praised the Lord aloud ! Thev enme from all the neiehborhood, a new hie to begin, To watch the old year goin' out, the new year comin" in. The preacher, he gave out the hymn, "Salvation full an' free." 'Twas followed by "Ama.in' grace, that saved a wretch like me." An' "Greenland's Icy Mountains" went rolliti' up on high Till it almost shook the windows in the everlastin' sky. An' then we had a word o' prayer the preacher stated plain The object of the meetin', whar we never met in vain, Then read a Bible lesson, which give our souls relief, Then throwed the meetin' open for experiences brief. An' then said brother Johnson,' way down by the door He'd served the Lord for eighty years an' wanted eighty more ! An' Brother Williams cried "Amen !" an' so the word went round Till we tflought the sleepiest angel up in heaven heard the sound. An' then we had more singin' an' how the tune did rise "When I can read my title clear to mansions in the skies !" An' Brother Scott, he said the words "My real estate ain't here; But, thank the Lord, to heaven 1 can read my title clear!" An' the sisters, they stood up an' spoke, an' tears wuz fallin' fast, , For their gray hairs seemed to tell us they wuz neann nome at last. An' each one told of grace an' love that lightened up the soul While crossin' o'er the river "where the surges cease to roll." We most forgot the old year, we most forgot the new, In tellin' of the wonders that the lovin Lord could do, An' talk about your shoutin' I tell you, it was prime, Fer we had, to speak it plainly, jest a halleluiah time ! The Time to Start A Savings Account, is to Start it to-day. The Place to Start It is at this strong, reliable and successful institution. The Kind to Start Is the New Holiday Savings Fund Account I tell you, 'twas a meetin', an' I'd have you folks to know The Lord wus with them people as the old year turned to go, An' the new year found 'em happy as the church bells tolled on high, An' that watch night dawn in Billville took is place up in the sky. TO THE GATES OF DAY. I know the way to the Gates of Day, For, ever I hear a sweet Dream say: "It's over the waters dark and deep; But the lights of God fall not on sleep Still for your guilding their watch they keep ! And you shall not miss the final way Over the Deep, to the Gates of Day !' I know the way to the Gates of Day; It lies o'er the starlit grave and gray Where the weary and weeping kneel to pray Where they feel in God's silence a clasping hand Leading them up from a lonely land. To heights where the lovelier star-lamps stand And who shall miss that brightening way Over the Deep, to the Gates of Day ? To the Gates of Day through grief and tears And the mystical moan of the chastening years: But even through tears there shines the light Where is no weeping where falls no night ; A voice in the stillness forever hark ! The word of a starbright dream in the dark; Sure as the light of God is the way Over the Deep, to the Gates of Day!" Frank L. Stanton in Atlanta Constitution. np OO many people make the mistake of thinking that they must have a considerable sum to start a savings account. In the New Holiday Savings Fund just started at this Bank you can open an account with a penny, or for as much as you are able. By adding to it persistently every week your ac count will soon grow to proportions that will make you glad. Open an account NOW, and pave the way for a merrier Christmas next year. r 11 u DLi n WELDON. N. C. AUNT JEWS MAXIMS. By Cally Ryland.

' "Root's sharp wit has scored many a good point for him," a lawyer said. "I remember once, years ago, 1 introduced a very im portant witness in a case against Root. My witness was a fat, red nosed man, and 1 said to the judge: "This witness, your honor, is a very responsible citizen. He holds a most important position. In fact he is the superintendent of the waterworks." When Root came to cross-examine my witness, he said, first: "So you are the superintendent of the waterworks, eh?" "Yes. sir. Mr. Root." "And you give satisfaction?" "Yes. sir: I've given perfect sat- isfaninn at the waterworks for seven years."
