Broad & Middle The Journal Aim. AeajfttfpH&nrf i1 DHUG COKPffi Dorothy Dix The Sort of Man To Marry The Advantage of "Putting Up a Front" In the Con test With the World. A young woman writes me a letter in which she says: ' "I am engaged to be married to a young man, who, I think puts too much value on appearances. He goes to cheap places to dine and cooks his own breakfast in his room but he patronizes an expensive tailor. He denies himself the pleasure of smoking because he can not afford fine cigars, and he will not be seen smoking a cheap one. He only takes me to the theatre once a month, be cause he will not sit in any but the best seats. What do you think of this kind of a man? What sort of a husband do you think he will make?" Judging from the tone of my cor respondent's letter, I imagine that she does not approve of the system upon which her sweetheart has elect ed to play the game of life. Yet it is a shrewd and worldly wise one, and one that nine times out of ten is a winner. This young man is putting up a bluff at prosperity, and Fortune is a whimsical jade that smiles sweetest upon those who woo her boldest. One of the problems that every j poor person who desires to get along in the world has to face is whether it is better to be comfortable or smart and fashionable whether, in other words, it is better to spend your money for a square meal or good elothes whether it is better to live in a big warm room and wear hand-me- downs or to abide in a hall bedroom and adorn yourself in tailor-mades. So Goes the Varied World. Different men decide this question in different ways, and according to their decision is their fate in life. Sometimes the impecunious youth chooses the succulent beefsteak, and the savory mushroom, and the flow ing mug of beer, and the comfortable old clothes and he remains to the end of his days in the class in which he began. If he is a carpenter, for instance, he stays a mechanic, contented and hap py in the station of life to which he has been called. If, however, he is the kind who is willing to go hungry in order that he may dress like a pro fessional man, if he is willing to do without the necessities in order to have the luxuries, he has that within him that will make him rise above his class just as surely as water seeks its level. He may begin life as a car penter, but he will end it as a big contractor. Of course, the unambitious people who spend their money on good food and warm flannels instead of show, and who are satisfied to go plodding along among neighbors who do just as they do, have the best of daily comfort, and perhaps get most of happiness out of life, but they never progress. And they never arrive. It is the desire for something better than you have, and the determination to have it, even if it is only a better house nm! better clothes, that forces people onward and upward. Con tentment is not progress. It is stag nation. consider it a sort of hypocrisy for a man to spend his money in putting up "a front" instead of making him self comfortable, but this is a nar row and mistaken view to take of the matter. The man has simply had the sagacity to realize that his ap petite is a private matter between himself and his stomach, but that his appearance is a matter between him self and the publie, and in referring to the public instead of to hii own inclinations he takes a long shot at winning out. You Muat Look the Part. For there ii no denying the truth of the old proverb that nothing suc ceeds like success, and if you wish to be successful you must look the part. To appear poor and needy and shab by and down at the heels is its own hoodoo of bad luek. It makes every body suspicious of your ability to do things. Why, asks inexorable logic, should this man or woman look like a hu man rag bag unless he or she is either lazy or utterly incompetent? Surely if this man was industrious and clever he oould make enough money to dress well. Certainly, if this woman had any talents she would receive sufficient pay to buy her some good clothes. - We unconsciously gauge men's and women's ability by the way they are dressed, fend if their clothes are smart and up to date we jump to the con clusion that they fere the sort of alert, wide-awake people whose services are worth good money. If a shabby man and a well-dressed man apply for the same job, it is invariably the better dressed one who gets ii ' A woman with a $30 hat and a 1100 tailor-made, and her hair done in the latest style, can sell a busy man, who never reads anything bnt the news pspers, "The Lives of the Presidents in 87 Volumes," whereas the shabby '. Apt in a Inst year's bir l'i m t run Writes on never get in telephoning distance of his office boy. Considering the way the world is built, the wisdom of pinching on your stomach to spread on your back, and of putting your last dollar in fine rai ment, is beyond argument. A new "Sartor Reeartus" might be written on the moral effects of a ruffled tunic and creased trousers. Restaurant waiters defer to them, office boys open doors to them, customers are po lite to them, even employers respect them. Nor have we any right to complain because the world judges us by our clothes. It is all that is on. the out side, and all that people have to go by in estimating us, and they show pretty well the sort of men and wo men we are. As to what sort of a husband a man will make who will eat at a oheap res raurant in order to have good elothes, I do not know. But one thing I do know, and that is that if .1 married a man who had that mych grit, self denial and good hard horse sense I would prepare myself to rise in the world with him. For he'll get there! SUFFERED 21 YEARS FINALLY FOUND RELIEF. Having suffered for twenty-one years with a pain in my side, I finally have found relief in Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. Injections of mois phine were my only relief for short periods of time. I became so siok, that 1 had to undergo a surgical opera tion in New Orleans, which benefited me for two years. When the same pain came back one day I was so sick that I gave up hopes of living. A friend "advised trie to tfy 'ybu'r Swamp-Root, and' I 'tit' oiice'' cb'm menced using it. The first bottle did me so much good, that I pur chased two more bottles. I am now on my second bottle, and am feeling like a new woman. I passed a gravel stone as large as a big red bean, and several small ones. I have not had the least feeling of pain since taking your Swamp-Root, and I feel it my duty to recommend his great medioine to all suffering Tiumanity. Gratefully yours, MRS. JOSEPH CONSTANCE, Rapides Par. Echo, La.

"Life is a leaf of paper white on which each one of us may write his line or two and then comes night" says Henry Van Dyke in .the opening lines of a famous poem. That': right but the majority of us want to write more than a line or two, in fact there are .many who are so swift in the race that they've already done enough to fill the page with single- spaped typewriting. .'

'.. The attention of the Journal has several times of late been called to the fact that the city ordinance relative to blocking the sidewalks with boxes, barrels and .other ob stacles, is not being enforced. Down in the business section of the city this causes a great deal of inconven ience and there is no reason why it should not te stopped. The side walks in front of some stores resem ble the shipping department of es tablishment and this, neces-arily is an inconvenience years ago this would have made littlo difference but New Bern is now city and growing larger every day and the modes and rendi tions of the past are not suitable for the present day.

General Alvaro Obegon, who yesterday as sumed supreme command of the cap ital and of the federal district, last night received a telegram from Gen eral Pablo Gonzales, in which the latter declared that General Villa, by advancing his troops southward, had repeatedly broken the truce agVeement entered into on November 12 betwen general Gonzales and General' Eulalio Gutierrez,' recently ehosen provisional president of the AuguaS Calientes convention.
