Procrastination.
It is admitted that procrastin
ation is the thief of time. If so,
it would seem to be fatal to suc
cess. Observation and reading
1 and reflection indicate that only
two things are requisite to some
measure of success, and they are
promptness in dispatching busi
ness, or the absence of procras
tination and the desire to do
right; so that requirements for
success are simple. The absence
of procrastination means some
degree of courage and faith in
oneself, and the desire to do
right reinforces this courage and
faith.
Procrastination is a fear of not
! doing the work right—a lack of
faith in ones’s own equipment
for the part; and hence the bet
ter equipped one is for the work,
and feels himself to be, the less
temptation there is for procras
tination. Among the benefits
arising from keeping up with,
Hunt of the Governors.

or a little ahead ot one s work, is
the absence of a feeling of hur
ry, and one feels more poise and
has a clearer vision; and when
one is once somewhat ahead of
his work, the daily task there
after is no greater in amount
than when he was constantly
behind, and all the time his eff
ectiveness is increased by that
feeling of confidence and content
ment with himself brought a
bout by the knowledge that he
has been able to do his work and
do it on time, and that he has a
surplus of time left.
And the highest authority
says that the world fights for
the righteous, who are those who
desire to do right, the gentle;
and in another place the same
authority says the gentle shall
inherit the earth, and we see
this prophecy being fulfilled, as
inhabitants of the earth, those
who inherit it are gentler from
age to age; and of necessity this
prophecy must be fulfilled in its
completeness, because the un
gentle eat each other up or
wear each other out by mutual
friction. —Memphis News-Scim

ALL WRONG
The Mistake Is Made By Many
Newport Citizens.
Look for the cause of back
ache.
To be cured you must know
the cause.
If it's weak kidneys
You must set the kidneys to
working right.
A resident of this vicinity
shows you how.
Mrs. E. M. Baker, W. Pleas
ant St., Searcy, Ark., says:
Kidney trouble fastened itself
upon me in a mysterious way
and I ran down so rapidly that I
was in bad shape before I real
ized it. I had backache and
dizzy spells. The kidney secre
tions were also in bad shape and
my joints swelled. I used
Doan’s Kidney Pills and they
soon gave me relief. I willing
ly confirm my former endorse
ment of this remedy.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Mrs. Ba
ker had. Foster-Milburn Co.,
