We have rumors upon rumors
of a revival of business, but it has
not yet come in sight,
" Honesty is the best policy " is
an old adage but one as true as holy
writ. We see an exemplification of
the truism every day, and all around
us. The man who deals honestly
and squarely with his fellows is not
only respected but generally prosper
ous. In an. especial manner is it
true of men who pay their debts.
They are never at a loss for credit,
and nevor worried with dunns. l,v
ery prosperous farmer we know in
this or adjoining counties is of this
character. So is every prosperous
and successful business man, me
chanic or artisan. A man who is
honest and pays his debts is blessed.
The exceptions to this rule are
composed of such as are given over
to their natural hardness of heart,
who spread themselves like a green
bay tree and grind the faces of the
poor. David says. "These areungod
Iy men who prosper in this world."
Paul tells Timothy, 14 Evil men and
impostors shall wax worse and
worse, deceiving and being deciev-
ed." They are agents of Satan from
-choice and are permited to prosper
fir a purpose, just as many scoun
drels have whose portion is well de
fined. ,
