1. Cultivate the habit of al
ways looking upon the bright
side of every experience. Wor
ry and anxiety are the great
killers. Worry has the physical
effect of breaking down the
nerve centers and making one
less able to do one’s work or to
meet any difficulty. Don’t cross
the bridge before you come to it.
Meet every trouble as it arises.
2. Accept cheerfully your
place in life while you are in it,
believing that is the best possi-
ble place for you. This does not
mean that one should not strive
to better his condition, but it
means that while you are in one
position make the most of it and
don’t be envious, fretful, and
jealous of others. “Oh,” you
say, "if I just had something
else, or were in some other situ-
ation, I could be happy.” No
you would not1 9. If you cannot
command happiness in your
present position you could not
find it in another.
3. Throw your whole soul
and spirit into your work, and
do it the best you know how.
No matter what your work is,
while you are in it you must
make a delight of doing it well
or you will never be happy.
4. Get into the habit of doing
bits of kindness and courtesies
to all those who touch your life
each day. This means at home,
principally. Any one can be po
lifce and pleasant and thoughtful
when out on dress parade. But
the folks who love you most and
whom you most love are those in
your own household or immedi-
ate surroundings. Try thought
fulness, kindness and courtesy
with them—husband to wife,
wife to husband, children to par
ents, parents to children, broth-
ers to sisters and sisters to
brothers. _ ,
5 Adopt and maintain a sim
pie, childlike attitude of confi-
dence and trust in God as your
own Father.-*cFrom a report of
Dr. Charles E. Barker’s lecture,

Years Old.”

Government Statistican C. O.
Crook states that an error has
been made by papers in publish-
ing the cotton report for this
and last year. He gives the fol-
lowing as the correct report:
The tabulation of the separate
returns from the ginners for the
Sept. 25 report shows the tele-
graph summary to be correct.
There were 4634 bales of cotton,
counting round as half bales,
ginned in Lamar County, from
the crop of 1915 prior to Septem-
ber 25, 1915, as compared with
18,844 bales ginned prior to
Sept. 25. 1914.

Hon. Dudley G. Wooten, form-
er congressman from the Dallas
district, now a lawyer at Seattle
and author of a history of Texas,
once remarked that when he be-
gan to write his history he dfs-
covered that he had collected
some data which would be out of
place in a spber narrative. As
a sampie of the rejected material
he gave the following:
“At an early day when the
chief industry of the State was
cattle raising, the judge of a dis-
trict court in one of the frontier
counties charged to the grand
jury very strictly to investigate
reports of cattle stealing. There
being no court house in the
county, the grand jury conduct-
ed its deliberations under the
shade of a post-oak tree. Hav-
ing examined the witnesses in
regard to every species of crime
contained in the charge of the
court except cattle stealing, the
foreman of the jury delivered
himself as follows:
“ ‘Gentlemen, it only retrains
to look into the crime of cattle
stealing. I would suggest that
if any member of this body
knows any good reason why lie
should not be present while we
are looking into this item of the
court’s charge, he retire before
we take up the subject.’
“With that the foreman reach-
ed for his hat and withdrew.
When he had walked a few yards,
he looked back and saw the oth-
er eleven, each going his severnl
way.”—Wood County Democrat.
The Driver Would Pay.
The farmers hunt frogs with
sacks and electric torches, which
they flash into the eyes of the
croakers and blind them.
A Dutchman riding in a little
cart drawn by a goat started to
cross a bridge when he was
stopped by the toll man.
“You have to pay five cents to
drive over this bridge.”
“Vat? Pay five cents to cross
this little bridge?"
After some argument the toll
was paid and the Dutchman
went on his way. Late in the
evening he came back, but ho
had the goat in the cart and was
pulling it himself. When ac-
costed by the toll man he shook
his head and pointed to the goat.
•“Don’t talk to me,” he said,
“ask the driver.”
