James of Pay Tour Small Bills. There is scarcely any duty more in cumbent on everybody in the commencement of the new year than the duty of promptly paying the numerous small bills that the season brings. Though often matters of but small importance to the individual debtors, in the aggregate they are of the greatest importance to the mechanic or whatever business man. Promptness in meeting them is indispensable to making those larger settlements in the business world which bear so direct a relation to the general prosperity of the country. A dollar spent in paying a bill early these mornings will do a rast deal of good before night, liquidating accounts to many times its face value as it circulates about from hand to hand.

Where the duty and advantage of promptness is obvious, it is a singular evidence of perversity of human nature that those who are best able to meet their small bills as they come due are the most dilatory. It would be well for every well to-do man to begin the new year by asking himself if he ia not needlessly and habitually delinquent in this respect, and to correct the bad habit at once, if he finds he has contracted it.

will be held for court to answer for his crime. On New Years a fight was engaged in between-a man named Brown from Cokeville and Albert Shearer, of this place. No arrests have been made in regard to this matter, and it is quite probable none will be made now. On Saturday night Messrs. Harry and Albert Coleman, of Conemaugh township, came to town with a Mr.

George, of near New andria. These are quiet and law abiding citizens. The above named Brown who figured ia the New Year's fight was again in and so drunk that it required the whole pavement for him to get along. In passing these youngjraen one of them accidentally run against him. The young man apologized for the accident, for which courtesy he was struck in the face by tbe drunken wretch.

Brown then gathered up his gang of toughs and pursued the young men who were obliged to take refuge in a restaurant. That such a state of affairs should be allowed to exist in our midst is a disgrace to borough. Why not have these outlaws arrested and punished to the full extent of the law. SILVER WTNG. GRIP.
