TRYING TO GET EVEN. 1 a man wishes to belittle himself ijWarp his own soul he can ilud UO ir way than to rei-olvo to "get ,.u" with some one. To every uu "Hcrstnndlng thcio are ivvolMct? Vou may honestly believe sumo ono has wronged you, jet, nine times out ut ten, -when the facts aro known tho other fellow thinks you liavo not treated him as vou should. It la a safe assertion to make, that not ofteu has the other fellow intended to do jou a wrong, or to ollend jou. Some times those who have been old friends for years, have been diiven npart and that friendship turned Into hate on the part of tho other, sluiplv because some mlschtcfniaker thought lessly, or to cover his own indiscre tion, roported ono as having acted in an un'rlendly manner toward tho otter's Interests, when, as a matter of fact. Just the opposilto was true. Life is too short to spend it in quar reling. A man can not afford to warp his own soul by holding imger in his heart toward any one Let us think about these things, just now when tho spirit of peaiu Is in the nir, and if there is anv thing wrong between two neighbor!, let ua lend t helping hand In Bmootblng out tho misunderstandings and the heart aches, so old friends mav onco more claBp hands and say: 'l misuudor stood you, old fellow. Let us again bo friends." .Modern Woodman. NEW COTTON PICKER. Labor is the chief element In the cost of cotton pi eduction, under pres ent conditions.

Tho business men of the small tovviiB aro learning what the buslnosi mun of tho largo towns hnvo known for n long 'time--that It is impossible under modern (ondlllotis to acblove a loiwidernulo success without tho nld ot publicity. Tlioso dajs every body ruads, and everybody reads ad voitlslng, for tlio advertising columns are the clearing house of lelali bus iness. Tho women lo the buying for the homo and family, and thov aro all renders of advertising uccuuao they have learned that ndveitlsing not only saves them money, but time and labor as well, l'cople who do not read do not hnvo money enough to make theli trade v-orlh striving for. Men who gu lino business now must oithor be willing and able to adveitlso lntelll peuily or go out.

None ot them have tho absolute ly air-tight and gas tight construction throughout which Cole's Hot Blast has by reason of its numerous patents. A patented steel collar connects the elbow draft to the stove body nnd cannot open by action ot lho fiercest heat. The pat ented compound hlngo on tho lowor draft cannot vvarp, and tho ash door closes air tight by its own weight. Tho patented smoke-proof feed door prevents smoke, dust or gas escaping when fuel ts put In tho stovo. Perfect results, therefore, from soft coal.
