In each pernnl wa" done the proportionate w ork of its time, perfect in itself, successful because it harmonized with the work before and afterward. No man can raise live -took by feed iriK it one day and ftarin it the next, Jijnedf indeed, must be the elucation of the boy who skips his mntheinatical lessons every month. Perhaps the automatic book-keeper can finish his entries, close his ledger, never to reopen the past, except for reterence. Desk-sitting book-ke. ; -ers are not men of business. The business man who pulls tic v. n the top of his roller desk, w ith everything done and nothing to be continued, has no business tobe in business, because his so-called business isn't business. "To be continued" is the motto of trade. "Never to be finished" is a rule of progressive business. Heaven is the home of the man w ho stops. The world is made for workers, that there may not be shirkers in the "Continous By and By." "Always at it" is the trade mark of business. The man w ho is in stock today and out of stock tomorrow, is apt to be out of business the next day. Advertising has too distinct val:. . First, the initial presentation! of someth'ng. accompanied by argument. Second, the continuation of the argument. Mighty few people, anywhere, answer an advertisement the firs, time they see it, unless it be of a special bargain, or of some illigitimate article of trade. One can advertise a cheap chromo, and secure a value from the first advertisement. These are advertisements of the 1 'surflcient-unto-the-day and "insufficient-tomorrow" class. The good advertisement of good business has more value collectively than individually; that is. its value consists, not in one appearance of itself, but in that appearance in continuation of former appearances, and in the certaincy of subsequent appearances. Allow me to give a personal reminiscencePublicity is my profession. I should know something about it. I ought not to be as much influenced by advertising as the man who has never studied it, for familiarity with anything sometimes breeds inapprcciation. Before me for several years was the advertisement of an insurance company. I did not know any one connected with it. When I realized the necessity of insurance. I put on my hat, went directly to the office of that insurance company, and took out a policy. The only reason I w ent to that particular company was because the advertisement of that company had been before me for years. I did not appreciate either the advertisement or the company, although I had seen the advertisement a thousand times, until the time came when I wanted insurance, and then I connected the advertisement of years with the necessities of my particular case and the company got some of my money. The advertisement which appears this week and not next, is liable to nuke people forget that it appeared at all Most folks casually read advert is ments. If the next week they think of something they want, they may remember seeing an advertisement of it in the paper. The paper is gone. They turn to a subsequent issue of the same paper, and do not find the advertisement, consequently they do not buy the goods then, or buy of somebody who is advertising the same thing. The local dealer has no right to take his advertising out of the paper so long as he advertises at all. He may cut the size a little although the shrewd advertiser seldom does.

In the same place occupying the same amonnt of space, in the same paper, month after month, and year after year, not only brings new trade, but converts that new trade into permanent trade, creating business of prosperity to posterity. The majority of the men who are succeeding today are the men who conti nuosly advertiseThe Jasper Courier solicits your advertising. Our rates are very reasonable. Let us show you.

ANI the One to whom are intrusted the newly-born into heuveii turned t )the poul, faint still with earthly tivmors anil yet wedded to mortal jys, and siiiti : M Thou hast loved much !" M Yes," she answered, M ami one most of all. Time is empty till h come to me, and yet the years shall be as days if he come at hist." Then a shadow, as of human pity, fell upon the face of the One. ami he answered, "his place is not thine, except he win it by ways of full peril thai may ti i he described,"! The soul cried out sharply, and lo.kl upon him at though he were an enemy, even though she stood within the walls of that which the earth-horn call heaven.

" His place shall lo mine, sheened, 11 mine may not be his. 1 will go down to hell, if he be there." " Nay." said the One. compassionately, " these be childish words, left of the M earth,-babble of place and, Lt. But choose now. Wilt thou rebel against the Mighty, or wilt though submit to what hath been decreed from ofl old?"

The soul stood white and thin as jf, in that moment, she endured a second death. " There is no wav," she asked, by which 1 can give up! my place to him while I descend and pray for him in h!" " No way." " Then f must submit." The sou! paled and withered

(like one in whom the second death h;:d ahvauy been ;iccomplished, though the tires of hell were alight in in her anguished eves. She turned her about, ana then looked back upon the One, and said, 'is there not some little instant marked out from all time when we mav meet, an

instant only?" The instant is thine," said the One, in sweet kindliness, "and this is how thou shalt rind it. Straight before thee, as thou standest, lies a silver track, and that shalt thou follow till thou hast reached the end which overhangs the void below: and there at the end shalt thou cling, with blackness above thee and blackness beneath. For that way shalt he come, after many years, hurled by the winds upon his darkening way, and for as long as though canst cling to him he is thine. " Then the eyes of the soul became swee ly alive once more, for hope had fed and nourished tthem. " And if I cling altogether," she faltered, "and find I draw him back upon the way ?" "Nay," said the One, sorrowfully, "if thou canst tingift is thine; but no one yet hath done so fearsome an I BO great a deed." The soul paused for no further question, lest she might be altogether denied, but she hastened swiftly upon the . i k it

could scarce find room upon it for her slender feet. The void above her was black, and the void below lay as a pit

where midnight reigned without a star, let still her heart prayed ceaselessly to the Love which is for all that, the love which was for one might not lose that which had I 'dfLV given it life. And when the way became so narrow that none without wings might traverse it, she lay down, clasping it with both arms, and so crawled outward until she had reached the point overhanging the void.

T W O ) know but the Infinite Love with whom all other loves are one, but it is written that manv years went by on earth ßüST GRADE IN THE STATE OF INDIANA before vet that other soul, so loved and so desired, was

done with mortal life. But there came a moment when.

like a rustlii.g leaf upon a wai ing wind, it came fleeting down the void where lay its mate with stiffening arms but iZV fuM want VOUT

everv-living eyes. And she cried aloud with gladness.

kissed as of old, though over the blackness of the void. ' Thou shalt do as I bid thee," she broke forth, in great J sobs, 11 or else are we undone. Hold thou fast to my hand, and cling to this line of light. Look not behind thee, tho' thy hand be unloosed, but cling with all thy strength; and when thou hast gained a foothold, walk nay, runtill thou hast reached the fair country bevond, andj though)

So, still clinging with one hand, and holding her love with the other, she dropped her frail figure from its rest-i ing place, and it hung perilously over the nothingness below. And, not knowing what he did, her love climbed fearfully to her place, and made his along the narrowtrack, still holding her hand. N that she was dragged painfullv for many paces. And there came a moment when!

she cried. Loose me now, and let me go, and look not back for me !" She drew her hand from his, and threw up her other arm in silent signal of fareweli, though he might not see it, and gave herself up to darkness and the pit; but lo! the void would not receive her, and the air was as earth to her joyful feet. And treading thereon, she overtook her love, as he made his slow way upon the narrow road, and and walked beside him, with cheering words, though onlv the blackness was under her. And when he comprehended what she had endured for his sake, it was as if ne had been new bom, through much travail and anguish, to a knowledge of that which was hign, and a scorn of the false joys which had once beguiled him. The pathway grew wide enough for two, and she trod upon it with him, and hand in hand thoy went smiling into the pleasant country beyond. And there the One apjxjinted to cherish the souls newly

come into heaven met them with arms out stretched. M Thou hast loved much," he said to her who had found her joy. " Yea, thou hast loved much!" A lin e Brown in LijiocoU'.
