Last Saturday we had the pleasure of "salting down" some of that butter money in ex change for a year's good reading matter. A few days ago, one of John Raker's calves got into the horse stable, and one of the horses broke one of the calf's hind legs below the knee. John did not get excited and take the calf's life, but he mercifully amputated the calf's leg, bound up the wound, and in due time, all the calf will need, to enable it to frolic upon the hillsides along with the rest of the herd, will be a wooden leg.

Don't underrate anything be cause you don't possess it Don't believe that everybody else is happier than you. Don't conclude that you never had any opportunities in life. Don't believe all the evils you hear. Don't repeat gossip, even if it does interest a crowd. Don't jeer at anybody's reli gious belief. Learn to hide your aches and pains under a pleasant smile. Few care whether you have the ear ache, headache of rheumatism. Learn to attend to your own business a very important point.
