FRIDAY, MAR. 1?), 1915.
in (his issue headed "Thoughts
of an Idle Hour" by Mnj. F. W.
Barber, hit any of our readers,
\ye hope it will help- to guard
t'leir tongues from this terrible
habit. We could each luue at
night feeling better if during the
day we would make it a rule to
speak of others as we would
they speak of us. Oftimes a hap
py life is shadowed by the awful
habit of possip. Halter thy
tongu$ that it speak not evil of
thy neighbor.
Fashion lias decreed that
women must reduce in weight
in order to wear the latest
gowns. What a calamity for
those who cannot reduce, and
yet will not wear an out of date
garment!
The handsomest, keened and
most brilliant man in this com
munity .owes us a dollar on Sub
scription, and we are expelling
him to favor us with an early
call. (That ought to bring 'em all
in.)

A. lccal calamity howler had
the audacity to come into our
office yesterday and open up
with his customary oration on
"hard times." We permitted him
to execute a masterly retreat.
American women are wearing:
military frocks this season, and
'American men are trying to
srteer as clear of European "fash
ions" as honor and common |
sense will permit.
Manufacturers arc known the
worid over by the labels on their
goods, and wide awake mer
chants are known by their ads
in the local paper. Are you
advertising?
Deposit a dollar in any bank
and it will draw 4 pet cent inter
est. Invest lt?in 52 issues of this
paper and it will yield 1,000 per
cent before the year is up. Bank
with us.
If this country muEt be forced
into war wc expect our public
off icp holders to be the first to
enlist. Then wc mere mortals
can bask in the sunshine of their
patriotism.
Here's a bully good idea! Let's
have a law requiring every sen
ator and congressman who votes
for war to enlist and go to the
frount. Then there'll be no war.

It the re& of the European
countries get the itch and jump
into the scrap, wc won't have to
bother about the immigration
question for the next few week?.
A wise man once had a dollar
which he wanted to invest where
it would bring him the greatest
possible returns. We got it.
Paying the income tax is o
distinction fevy of us crave.

Some folks wander in tbcir

a gossip. If he folks too little he |
is a Clam. Poor man! .
It may be true that there is
