There is but one way to attain true success in life, and that is by the most arduous and incessant industry, coup led with integrity. Originally boys are a good der alike in point of intelligence, and it ' by no means the bright boy of four Jen that is most likely to become the rjos useful and distinguished citizen. It is just as likely to be the booby. It all depends upon labor. If the bright boy forms dissolute habits and is afraid of hard work his doom is sealed. He is des tined for the ranks of the mediocre. If the booby, who was the butt of his schoolmates,and the aggravation of his teachers, forms habits of industry and developes an enormous capacity for hard work, he is already on the road to greatness. He works while others sleep. He reads and studies and thinks while others amuse themselves in a thousand frivolous ways. He enriches his mind with the thoughts of the world's best thinkers, and the accumu lated wisdom of the ages finally becomes his own. He strengthens and polishes every fibre of his intellect, his dull brain becomes brilliant with thought and he stands forth transformed. The opportunity comes and he is equal to it. He bursts forth like a meteor, and his old associates are dazed. Some say it was a miracle, while others main tain that they always knew he was a genius—that behind the dull exterior they could detect the glow of intrinsic, merit. He was a queer, quiet sort o 112 boy, they say, but he had a superior intellect. They are all wrong. Originally he was just what they considered him—a booby. He felt humiliated because of his dullness, and resolved to pay the price of intellectual superiority—hard work. He dedicated himself to his task and looked neither to the right nor to the left. He made everything subordi nate to the one purpose of attaining knowledge, and he emerged from his obscurity with his brain burnished by the lustre of his labor. That is the whole story. But all this is of no use to him unless he has imbibed the principles of hon esty, and has formed lofty ideals of justice and fair play. No man can be called a success, no matter how remark - able|his talents, or how much wealth he may accumulate, who is not also rich in integrity. To be a smooth rascal is just as bad as to be a low blackguard. No man can be successful in the true sense unless he succeeds in keeping his integrity. For public men there is only one cri terion of conduct—do what you believe to be right in the face of every tempta tion, and if power and place comes to you let it come as an expression of pub lic confidence. In business it is the same. Reliability —no misrepresentation—no trickery are the principles that win. A false balance robs itself. Evil acte brings retribution as certainly as night follows day. And so it is that even industry is of no avail unless it is accompanied by the virtue of honesty. Get these and you have all. —Punxsutawney Spirit. N.

Y., built the finest house in all that region, in 1884, and painted it with lead and oil at a cost of S4O0 —the house cost $31,000. In 1887—three years—he repainted it with Devoe at a cost of $350. In 1897 this paint was in good condition. Lead and oil, S4OO, three years. De voe $350, ten years. Yours truly, 6 F. W. DEVOE & Co. Mason Hill. Prosperity. Honest Joe. And thus the vote will go. Miss Lizzie Jordan has gone to St. Mary's. Dr. Corbett visited his parents here Sunday. Mrs O. B. Tanner and youngest child are on the sick list. Mrs. llussell, who has been sick for a long time, was rather worse last week. Miss Ethel Barr will not resume her school on Mason Hill until after the In stitute. Elder W. Ingersoll, of your city, will preach for us this (Thursday) evening at the schoolhouse. Come everybody. The reading of one of our items last week left the impression that diphtheria was prevailing on Mason Hill. In the case of Mrs. A. 11. Barr it should have iead Huston Ilill, not Mason Hill. We are, as yet, free troui the dreaded disease. Mr. Delbert Marsh has passed through a very severe case of quinsey. His life was at one time despaired ol; but, at this writing, is out of danger. During the attack Mr. Marsh was unable to talk for a whole week, and during that time took no nourishment whatever. In the last issue of the Gazette there appeared a letter purporting to come from a Republican of this place. We can as sure the readers of the PRESS that no Republican ever wrote such silly stuff. The trend of the letter is that Mr. Sibley is buying his way to Congress. The shallow-brained writer of that letter signs himself " Regular." He should have written it " Regular Democrat," and he would have had it just right. Just a | word in regard to the sentence where he i says '• I am afraid Mr. Sibley will lose ! the soldiers' vote," etc. There is not the I least danger of such an event. Out of five soldiers on Mason Hill, Sibley will get the votes of four; the fifth will vote for Emery, and his ignorance accounts for his doing so—he can neither read nor j write. Why should a soldier vote agatnst I his own interests? Everything on the statute books favorable to the soldier is of j Republican origin, signed by Republican Presidents. On the contrary, the Demo crats have been the relentless enemy of everything looking to the welfare of the aged or infirm veterans of the late war. Therefore, I say vote for the party that is a true friend of the soldier, and not for a party that would take away every pension if it were possible. .j.** Als* Climax * • * Brandy ol Urapc.
