READ THIS TO A POOR BOY
Poverty is capital—a creative force, a
a spur, an incentive. Ambition dies on
diet of truffle and goose liver. Deter-
mination grows sluggish on a full belly.
Hard schools teach great lessons.
Rich men's sons are seldom rich men's
fathers. An unearned dollar i3 a fool
maker, Those who do not understand
how to make money can’t retain it
You are not handicupped -it’ijtbe idler,
the pampered, overfed, card ess protec-
ted boy who must fear the future.
Don’t mind these few Spartan years.
They are blessings. The appetite for
achivement stales on sweets—hunger
lends zest to doggedners.
You must work—you have no choicu.
You must earn cr you can’teat. There’s
no hand behiud you—you 've got to seize
the opportunity before you.
Responsibility is resting on your
shoulders, but duty broadens character.
Pack your chest with courage aud begin
to win. What you’ve missed in training
you can make up in steadiness and read
loess. Education at its best merely
points out the most comp etent method
and if you keep your eyes open and put
you) heart in your tasks, common seme
will show you us much as a text book,
iou ate lgnuraut of theories, but theory,
after all, isn’t nearly so important as
practice.
You stand today where Edison aud
Wauamaker aud Marshal Field aud Car-
negie and Lincoln stood at your age—on
your feet, with empty pockets, a sound
consitution aud license to make a dure
anywhere. The path to prosperity and
fame runs through your soul.
You can’t achieve more than you be-
live. Your reward will be proportionate
to your effect. Whatever you can grasp
with clean hands is your property, but
you’ll be knocked abou t, bh eked and
fought by every man who wants what
you seek. If you have one yellow streak
you haven’t a show
The years that lace you are full of
promise. Tomorrow -is always mighter
than yesterday.
The newcomer profits by the trials aud
ttruggles of the past, aud more knots
have been untied, more problems have
been solved in this single generation than
in any previous century.
Legislation is tearing whip after Vhlp
from the baud of privilege—hours are
shot ter—sanitation is better—aud facilit
lea of every sort are at the disposal of
all who wish to improve their minds and
bodies.
Rut we offer no charity—only cowards
and shirkers whine for concessions. We
want the greatest ability at the top,
we are merciless to quitters. It’s the one-
way in which we can truly test efficien-
cy.
When you arc discouraged, weep on
your snoulder—[duck is ashamed to dis-
play it’s tears.
Hold hard to hope—fling your faith in
the teeth of ridicule, disaster and cu
mity.
Dream far—we build close to the stars
in this century. Think with uuleased

PICKED UP HORSETHIEVES
Marshall Fix. on uuthiuitf )f Sheriff
Kamb > of Woods couuty, arrested some
parlies east of Coyle Monday on the
charge of stealing a team, harness and
buggy from S. B. Rowell, a liveryman
of Alva. The parties who gave their
names as John Snidow Maiy'Snidow
ami a boy by the name of Graham wete
brough t to town and placed in jail for
safekeeping until Tq^sday noon when
the Woods county Sheriff accompanied
by Mr, Rowell arrived, and indenlified
the property and persons* and took
charge of the prisoners. •The boy Gra-
ham, who claims to be from Guthrie snd
know nothing of the stealing of the
horses and rig, will probably be turned
loose without any charges "being made
against him.
From what, yve can learn the woman
appeared in Alva about a week before
and hired the rig at the livery stable to
drive to a uearby town and not only fail
ed to reach her destination but to teluin
the team as well, li is not known where
she met up with the man hut he was no
doubt near when she hired the team,
They traded the buggy for a spring
wagon somewhere near Marshall and
was making good time getting out of
the country when they stopped at this
place to get a trunk they had shipped
from Woods couuty. This trunk was
their undoing as the authorities soon got
In communication with the officers of
Woods county ,vith the above results
It seems that the Graham boy was
picked up by the pair at Guthrie ami
had no hand in the stealing although he
probably knew of it.
The Guthife .Star of yesterday insists
on giving all the credit for the capture
of these parties to Sheriff Murphy aud
his deputy las. Kirkwood • From the
best authority obtainaole neither one of
these gentlemen had anything to do wilh
this arrest and in fact knew nothing of
it until it was all over. We do not be
live Murphy- or Kirkwook care to take
credit for something they are uotentitied
to a id the Star should not try to beat
the country police out of what little
glory that is coming to them.
Privilege of Newspaper Advertising
There are always a certain number of merchants in
every town who fail to appreciate tlye valife of newspaper
advertising.
The majority ot these are not advestisers, but frequently
one may be found who is a regular patron, but who feels that
the newspaper man is “holding him up.’
Let us suppose, if we can, that the newspaper be re
moved from the town, or its advertising columns closed to
the public generally. What a predicament for the live re-,
tail merchant! • No way of telling store news to the families
of the town. * No way to teach the rural resident with an-
nouncements of special interest from time to time. In fact,
the only cheap, practical method of spreading merchandising
news would be dtnied the poor dealer, and then, perhaps,
when too late, would he realize the privilege which had bfeen
his.
* While some of the village dealers overlook their oppor-
tunities in this regard, yet there are many of the wide-awake
merchants in the smaller harrllets who have seen a light and
are rapidly coming into line,
For years past the country merchant has seen those who
were his legitimate customers returning from a trip to a larg-
er town, bringing many articles which he, himself, kept in
stock. At last, becoming indignant, he inquires: “Why
don’t you get those things here?” To which the farmer
truthfully replies “Didn’t know you had ’em^’
Thus have the eyes of^the country merchant been open-
ed and the truth has dawned upon him, that by advertising
in the town paper which has a circulation covering the trade
territory of this section, he^ might keep his customers at
home and greatly increase his trade.
The truth of this awakening is shown by the fact that of
late years most of. the town papers contain the advertise-
ments of the general stores jn the adjoining hamlets, indicat-
ing that the cross roads merchant is now joining his more
* fortunate brother in fho larger town in showing his ap-
preciation of the privilege of newspaper advertising.

PLEASANT VALLEY MAN WINS
Word comes from McAllister that W.
. Buckner, formerly of Pleasant Valley,
has won out for the democratic nomin-
ation in the race for Clerk of the Super
ior Court of Pittsburg county, over one
of the most popular democrats in that
county. When Buckner entered the
race his candidacy was considered a joke
by some but it would seem that it was
more serious than many people thought.
We are always glad to see a Logan
county man win, and as the democratic
nomination is the same as an el-
eetion in Pittsburg couuty, we see where
Mr. Buckner lias secured a very good
position.
FIRST CAR OF ELBERTAS
The first ear of Elberta peaches to be
shipped from this place was loaded
Tuesday. W. H Merten, commission
man of Guthrie, bought them at 50c
per bushel. The Elberta peach crop
is good this year and there will be many
cars of this fruit shipped from Coyle in
the next two weel s. While fifty cenls
per bushel seems like a small price for
peaches of such excellent quality al the
ones grown this year, the farmers will
it wili not he long until someone with
the necessary experience and money
enough to handle the proposition will
take up the matter.
