THE INDIVIDUAL LIFE.
'Theio Is too much disposition to
ft.'rli r job, get your motley and go.
whether .vour work stands the test or
uot. So one '.ins put his time Into the
work is nil lie thinks about; but what
he should ho more anxious about/ if
hf Is nu honest man is, has he put his
Integrity Into the work? That Is the
!imi:i thing, and yet It Is not the thine
tin" pi . pie mainly think about. But
in (lie exercise of one's integrity Is
naturally connected the employment
of the time lie is paid for. Neglect hi
putting in full time and doing honest
work belongs to the some category.
Time is mouey and it is the same
thing, whichever Is stolen. We speak
of these things from a civic stand
point. for he who Is guilty of either Is
a had citizen: Ills politics are had and
as to lils religion, he has none. An
old evangelist says we must get right
with God, and that Is a great truth
and next to it is the admonition, we
must get right with our own true self.
That is io say, we must honor ourselves.
That Is the only patriotism that is
worth a cent. The future of our coun
try lies in tiie individual life, says Ohio
State Journal. All noble reform tie
gius there. It is the starting point of
all social betterment. Selfishness is
the doctrine of materialism, which Is
hurling the country beyond all calcula
tion. '
America's baby crop in 1019 made
a new record, say* the American Child
Hygiene association. Babies seemed
to thrive well in some of ttic larger
cities, where formerly the death rate
was very high. Among the 2-1 cities
of more than 2o0,000 population re;
ported. 10 were below the average for
the 2i*>, and the death rate for the
group was So. two points below the
general average. Houston, Texas, was
the best baby-raining ground among
the cities of more than 100,000 and
less I ha li -oO.txKt, with a mark of 61.
Berkeley. Cal.. had a baby mortality
rate of It, while Ilryokllae. Mass., with
a population of less than 00,000, led
all the rest, with the healthy percent
age of -10.
A N'ew York apple king si ys there
will be plenty of apples for Ameri
cans this year. Then' are always plen
ty (.f apples, says Houston Post. The
chief trouble is that about one-third
the crop is permitted to rot because
the manipulators are not willing for
the people to eat theiu at a reasonable
price.
Camille Flammarion, the noted
French astronomer, is iu a slate of
excitement over the fact, which he
sajs is clearly evident, that Mars is
again trying to signal the earth. But
a great, blase public Is likely to in
quire, "Well what of It?" and go on
to the football game.
Rats, says a noted biologist, have,
caused more deaths than all the wars
In history, and have also caused a
yearly property damage in this coun
try of more than $200,000,000. Now
if cats hadn't developed such a taste
for songbirds, something might be done.
A federal reserve bank ollicial says
that about half the total currency of
the United Stotes is being carried iu
people's pockets, when it would be a
great deal better invested. But It
takes half the currency of the country
for incidental purposes nowadays.
Virginia tobacco growers compiuiu
that they were offered only a third
to a half of the prices they got last
year. And does that mean that cigar
ettes are going to be reduced or that
the cigar store man is goitig to pay a
bigger income tax?
An expert has investigated the sub
ject anil announces that the supply
of fuel oil is ample for the world's
needs, anil will be for many years to
come. Let us see what effect his faith
has on the price of gasoline.
The seismograph in Georgetown
university recorded a severe shaking
that may have been an earthquake or
some ultimate consumer of hard coai
at work with the sifter on last win
ter's ashes.
Germany Is offering for sale In this
country men's paper suits at 60 cents
a suit, with fifty styles in stripes
available. Not referring to tl-eir style
or color, wouldn't such clothes be
rather noisy?
The Master Horseslioers' association
decided that the motor vehicles will
never displace the horse. Nobody
hears of an automobile being called
on to pull a horse out of the mire on
a detour.
The increasing number of mechan
ics who go to work in their automo
biles should be viewed with satisfac
tion. For it means more room in the
street cars for bankers and whatnot
The former war lord of Germany is
reported to have abandoned wood saw
ing as an exercise and taken to walk
ing. It may be remembered that late
in 1918 he developed unsuspected abil
ities as a runner.
THE TERM OF LIFE.
A rule whli' i holds fairly trae amors
the Uglier nit. iuuiuIh Is that an animal
lives live tint's as long as It requires
for Its muscular system to reach Its
full strength. The dog Is tally, devel
oped at between two and three years
of age, arid lives 15 years; the horse
reaches his prime not later than Ave,
and if he escapes overwork and 111
usage, lives to be 25 and even 30. In
fact, the rule seems to be an under
statement of animal expectation of
life, rather than an overstatement The
one conspicuous exception Is man, who
seldom reaches his full muscular
strength before he Is 25 and counts*
himself living on borrowed time If he
passes the age of 70. If man were as
well circumstanced In this matter as
the horse, dog or cat, his average term
of life would vary from 110 to 125
years, says Chicago Journal. To state
the case thus badly makes It sound
fantastic, yet If there Is any reason
why human beings should not be as
tenacious of life as other higher mam
mals. science lius failed to discover
that reason.
Call things by their right names. We
are always willing to give a proper
name to the thing we dislike. But we
d* not carry It far enough. We give
big No. 12 names to some of our little
No. 2 troubles. We give a big hlgli
soundlng mime like ".-mcrlflce" to "some
act which really consists In a plain
sort of duty. We are hypnotized by
words. And It is a harmful condition
to encourage. It a fleets the mind bad
ly. Little dittlcultles are made to swell
up until they fill our whole horizon;
while the real big blessings of life are
dwindled down to nothing. Let us go
back to the honest use of names, says
Dearborn Independent. We ought to
be as accurate about the size of our
difficulties as about the size of our
shoes.
The ex-emperor of Austria Is report
ed to be seeking the throne of Hun
gary. One would suppose the deposed
kings had enough of the business,
especially whetrexperlence proves they
cannot run It, but that does not hinder
the desperation with which they cling
to a Job too big for them U> manage.
In view of the increasing tide of de
mocracy, thrones, especially made-over
ones, are a shaky investment.
Continued reports coine of the fall
ing of the soviet government in Rus
sia, but It Is to he feared the wish Is
father to the report. The soviet Idea
is still functioning, to the destruction
of Kussia and the enlightenment of
the rest of the world, but the Russians
have not ,vet so far progressed as to
throw It off for a civilized rule.
In 1790 only 29.000,000 pounds of
tobacco were sold In the United States.
Last year the sales reached 914,000,
000 pounds. This Is an Increase that
has been exceeded only by the num
ber of tobacco users who never have
any.
Veterans of the overall movement of
a year ago point with pride to the fact
that they gave the first kick that start
ed the downward movement of clothes
prices. In time we may have an organ
ization of Ancient and Honorable Sons
of Overall Wearers.
While there has been a decline In
the wholesale prices of foodstuffs,
the retailers scrn not to have heard
the news. Uncle Sam should under
take the job of shouting it In their
ears.
It is entirely probable that a few
hundred thousand French soldiers
would like nothing better than an or
der to proceed through Germany to
Tolnnd, and to meet with armed re
sistance on the part of the Germans.
"One needs money to go to the
moon," says Professor Goddard of
Clark university. Thus have we an
eminent authority's opinion that the
important part of going, up is. comlllg |
down.
If the consumer can stop eating and
make his old rags do for a decade or
so he should eventually live to see
the reduction in prices sometime or
other perhaps passed on to him.
To simulate buying, producers are
predicting a shortage of Christmas
gloves. Maybe our demure misses
will consent to wearing mittens In
stead of giving them.

J. P. Howe, Prop, of general store
