should Hnd will support •
public library, and as a starter
in this direction we suggest tu
•our people the fsasibiliby of such
au undertaking. We now have
a law by. which the matter may
•be brought before the people and
decided by them throuh the dal-
lot as to whether a corporation
will or will not establish and sup
port such a thing. Well read
minds sustain wholesome laws.
True intlligenoe eleVates the
morals of a community. Good
books easy of aeceaa rid street
corners of many loafers. With
plenty of interesting books at
hand long winter evening may
be profitably spent, and a good
public library oombined with
good schools* well sustained, will
do muoh towards eradicating
many prominent eyils and cor
recting many crooked and pre-
verse ways.

An exchange says they have in
vented a new kind of social amuse
ment. It is called an "avoirdu-
pois party." All the girls ore
weighed, and the weight of each
written on a piece of paper and
put into a hat, and the young
men must draw, The young
man must go to supper with the
girl whose weight be draws aud
must pay for her supper at one
half cent per pound* It is very
exciting, so far ss the young men
are concerned.

Caldwell Furniture Co,
Did you ever think it? Sup
pose every business man in the
city took as much interest in the
upbuilding of a city as the news
paper man. lie works for rail-
roads, manufactories, better
roads, churches, good streets and
a hundred and one other things
for the general good; lie urges,
pleads, scolds, badgers and
coverts around generally until he
gets what he sets out for. Im-
agine his feelings, then, when
some lame, string-harled kind of
fellow reproaches him because
he don't boom tilings enough,
and nine out of ten that ssme
fellow has never paid one cent to-
ward supporting the paper, and
the | |>er he reads with marked
regularity is either borrowed
/rom his neighbor or picked up
from the counter in the store at
which he trades.

There can be no greater mis-
take that a business man can
make than to be mean in busi-
ness, Everybody has heard
the proverb of penny wise and
pound foolish. A liberal expendi
ture in the way business is al-
ways sure to be a capital invest"
ment. There arc people in the
world who are short-sighted
enough to believe that their in-
terest can be best promoted by
grasping and clinging to all
they can get and never letting a
cent slip through their fingers.
As a general thing, it will be
found, ether things being equal,
that he who is most liberal is
most successful in business. Of
course, we do not mean it to be
inferred that a man should be
prodigal in his expenditures;
but that he should show his cus-
tomers, if he is a trader, or those
whom ho may be dotng any kind
of business with, that in all his
business transactions, as well as
social relations, he acknwledges
tho everlasting fact that there
can be no permanent prosperity
or good feeling iu a community
where benefits are aot reoiporcal

The reputation of this old, relia-
