Some people will stretch veracity to the breaking point when it comes to a question of saving money. We have in mind a parsimonious individual who wished to consult a celebrated specialist who was known to a friend of his. He went to the friend and inquired; “Look here, how much does that doctor charge? He’s pretty expensive, isn’t he?” “You bet he is!” replied the friend. “He charges sls for the first visit but after that its only $3.” The next day the man called on the doctor. As soon as the doctor came out, he said: “Well, doc; here I am again.” In Several of our exchanges we see accounts of business men’s banquets that have been held in neighboring towns, many of whom have less population than has Syracuse There is no one that will question the benefits of getting together in this way. Long drawn animosities aie tucked awav, in many instances for good and all, and merchants in the same line generally reach the opinion that the other fellow is not such a bad sort after all. A meeting in this spirit of Syracuse business men would undoubtedly prove very beneficial and invigorating. A Country newspaper depends upon the people to furnish a large amount of its local news, and if the people neglect to inform the newspaper of visiting, sickness, accidents, and the like, the local columns will suffer, and it will not be all the fault of the editor, although he will receive the blame. There are quite a few 9! our patrons who recognize this phase of the news question and may their numbers ever increase. Make a new resolution. Whenever you have a visitor, go visiting yourself. or know of any other interesting item, phone it to Number 4. Kendallville citizens are again agitating the matter of removing the county seat from Albion to their city. We are prlsme to believe that as usual they wjll fail. Albion would probably put up a hard fight, for to lose the county seat business would vitally effect her very existence. When in conversation with another person do you talk of things that interest yourself, or do you talk of things that interest the person you are talking to. The difference Is what separates the man you like to talk to from the man you avoid holding a conversation with. *___ The case of Joseph Thvsan, told of in another part of this paoer, ahow the fu ilitv of t'-yind to escape tbe consequences of bad deeds. You may think no one knows nor will find out, but sooner or later, ibe truth will be known.

What would you think of a man who would shut of! his engine just as his automobile reached a hill? Isn’t this action similar to the man who cuts his advertising down when the slack season is approaching? Boosting doesn’t necessarily mean loud noise. The rooster does a lot of crowing but it is the hen that lays the egg. Good News We have pleasant news for such of our readers who like good fiction. Next week we will publish the first installment of “The Abysmal Brute,” written by the well known author, Jack London. This story teems with interesting and exciting situations and is written in that virile style peculiar to this celebrated author This story was just completed by London in January and comes to the Journal readers before it even appears in book form.

There are many women right in this town, and men too, who regard it as indispensable, because it makes the hair glossier and more silky, easier to dress and make stay in place.
