THE FALLS CITY TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , APRIL 26 , 1907
NOW AND THEN.
Do yon know that Falls City
could be the most sightly city in
the state. Situated as it is at the
crest of a hill rising from the
beautiful valley of the Nemaha ;
its streets lined with towering
trees , and its homes surrounded
by wide spreading lawns , there
is no reason why it should not be
known as Falls City the beauti
ful. A few days ago I visited a
little city in Kansas , and the I
picture I saw will remain a re
freshing memory for some time
to come. So struck was 1 with
the general neatness that I inquired -
quired the reason for it all. The
system employed , I was told by
the hotel man , was for each prop
erty owner on a given street to en
ter into a friendly contest to make
his home the best kept on that
street. The result was that the
entire city presented a picture of
delight. It required no more
than a few minutes each day on
the part of the owner to keep the
property clean , the lawns green
and even , the sidewalks kept , up
and the trees trimmed and tidy.
There is no belter way to im
press the stranger within the
gates than to keep clean. It is
well worth all the effort it costs
even if there were no other bene
fits conferred. Hut , the moral
inlluence on a community is the
most beneficent result. The
personal pride in the appearance
of your own home as well as that
of your neighbor counts far more
than you realize. Spring is just
here. The outdoor life has just
begun. Why not makcyourhomc
the prettiest on your street ? Why
not keep the lawn like a stretch
of green carpet , your trees
trimmed and tidy , your house be
comingly painted , your walks in
good repair ? If you do this your
neighbor will follow suit if he has
any pride. If your neighbor
does , so will his neighbor also.
Kesult , a pretty town.

One philosopher said that lile
was acquisition , another Said life
is abandonment. I believe with
the latter. Hopes , ambitions and
desires that once were very pres
ent and insistent , gradually slip
away from us and are abandoned.
Those things we believe in while
young and which did their part
in the building of our individual
ity , remain with us no longer as
we grow older. Kvcry boy wants ,
yes and believes , he will some day
be rich. Kvery young father
wants to leave his children money
enough so that they will not
battle with the bread and butter
question as he has had to do.
But as the years go on and he
learns what the mere struggle
has done to devclope him and sees
the waste and disappointment of
the idle rich , he gradually
changes his ideas and hopes for
nothing better than to leave his
children a good education , a good
name and the incentive to labor
and to wait. One of the richest
of New York's men said the other
day : "Oh , that 1 could give my
son the advantages of the poor. "
bounds funny doesn't it ? But it
isn't funny , its tragic. Think
of a healthy young American
hampered and restricted by the
limitations of wealth. Satiated
with the pleasures money gives ,
tired of life before life has begun.
None of the democracy of the
poor for him. No playing blackman -
man on the village green "with
Jimmie and Butch and Shorty
and the rest of the kidsNo
fishing with a cotton string and
a willow pole. No wading in the
creek ; nothing , nothing but
money , lie learns without being
taught that it isn't necessary for
him to work. There is neither
opportunity nor occasion for him
to develops the capabilities God
lias given "him , for he is rich. 1
have seen the pampered child of
lortune with his line clothes and
pale face riding down the avenues
of a city in his motorcar , and I
have thanked God that with the
same eyes 1 have seen my little
bo nyith freckled face and bare
fcetrfjoing to the candy shop ,
surrounded by his playmates , to
spend the nickel he had earned
by ' selling old bottles , for I am
older now and have lost the envy
of the rich. Give your boy n good
education , give him the demo
cracy of the poor , give him a
pure , wholesome home , bequeath
to J him a good name and you have
done more for him than if you
had | left him millions.

This lesson we have learnt at
home. j I remember a young man
of Kails City who was left a large
estate and I will never forget
how it ruined his life. I saw him
not long since and the wasted
years were stamped on his face.
Kor the past few weeks this com
munity has listened to the bitter
struggle between children for
their fathers's money. It would
have been better and the world
would have been happier if the
old gentleman who earned it had
burnt his money to ashes than to
leave it to add fuel to the flames
of hate and passion among those
where love alone should abide.
As I write this tonight , with my
children lying sleeping side by
side , it seems that I would rather
o out of the world without the
rice to pay the Kerryman to
arry me across the dark river ,
ban to leave anything that
vould make them spend their
ays hating each other alter I am
one- Sometimes I grow weary
f struggle and long for a time
o rest , but necessity keeps me at
vork. I may not want to work
omorrow , but I have never re
gretted that I worked yesterday ,
[ 'each your boy to labor , teach
lim that he must labor until the
inal rest. l\y \ so doing you arc
> reparing for the use of the tal
ents with which he has been en-
lowed , without which he will
lever attain his highest develop-
nent.

Worth While.
A Scripture quotation nmy be n
Salnnie iirgumenlB when chosen
with a sinful motive.
There are w > et surprises await
ing many n humble soul fighting
'iiiiHt ' gr at odds in the buttle
of u seemingly commonplnei1 life.
Thorn are few feelings more sat-
isfaolory than , when misunder
stood , to fall back on one's own
sense of puio motives and right
conduct.
Follow your ending diligently
for bt > assured , worlc , far from be
ing a hardship , is n blessing. . .am
you will find it a help , not a hin
drauco.
Hud manners soil line elothes
from within worst' than contact
with the world does from without
and eourtesy and kindness win
whore force fails.
A man's "religion" consists not
of the many things he is in doubt
of and tries to believe , but uf the
few ho is assured , and has no need
of oll'ort for believing.
A man is sooner to be trusted
with another person's secret than
with his own ; a woman , on the
contrary , keeps her own secret t
though she keeps nobody's else.
Mueh of what n man tells you
in the hour of nfllietion , in sudden
anger or in nny outpouring of hie
heart , should be snored. In hie
craving for sympathy ho line
spoken to you us to his own soul.
The efforts wo nmke for any
worthy object may not seem sue-
eessful today or tomorrow , bul
they area part of the grand worli
that is going on slowly but surely
and no one of them enn we ail'ord
to lose.
I3e discreet. Remember thnl
the walls have ears , mul let those
words which , if repeated , wouU
cause trouble , remain unsaid. In
dulge not in scandal. Do nothing
in secret that you would bi
ashamed to have done publicly.
It always argues n base nut
cowardly temper to whisper secret
ly what you dare not speak to i
man's face. Therefore be verj
cautious in spexking of these threi
sorts of persons namely , the in
noeent , the dead and the absent.

It Costs
Nothing If
To find out for a certainty ,
whether or not your heart is
affected. One person in four
has a weak heart ; it may be
you. If so , you should know
it now , and save serious con
sequences. If you have short
breath , fluttering' , palpitation ,
hungry spells , hot flushes ; if
you cannot lie on left side ; if
you have fainting or smother
ing spells , pain around heart ,
in side and arms , your heart is
weak , and perhaps diseased.
Dr. Miles' Heart Cure will re
lieve you. Try a bottle , and
sec how quickly your condition
will improve.
"About a j'enr ago I wrote to thJ (
Miles Medical Co. . asking ndvlcc , as I
naa suffer-in with heart trouble , and
had been for two years. 1 had palu
in rny heart , back anU Mt side , anil
had not been nble to draw a deep
lircnth for two years. Any llttlo exertion -
tion would cause palpitation , and I
could not llo on my left skla without
Btifrerlnjr. They advised me to try Dr.
Miles Uenrt Cure and Nervine , which
I did with the result that I am In
better health than I over was before ,
having gained it pounds elnce I com
menced taking it. I took about thir
teen bottles of the two medicines , and
haven't b en bothered with my heart
elnce. " MUS UIUE THOMAS.
