TRAVELED UP THE LADDER
Man Who Had Attained Hii Goal Ro
veala to Others the Secret
of His Success.
Around the stove in a grocery
store in Penobscot county, Me., a
group of the natives were discussing
politics in general and office-holding
in particular.
“Well, boys,” said one old chap,
“I kin tell ye sumthin’ about it
myself. I’ve had considerable ex
perience in that line. When I begun
I wasn’t much; but ye’ve got to
start sumwhere, an’ ye can’t be too
particular when you’re only com
mencin’.
“When I begun, ’twa’n’t more’n
school agent, but I took it an’
thanked ’em for it. Well, after that
I kept risin’ an’ risin’, till I got to
be third selec’man. People won
dered how I did it! but it was most
ly because I wasn’t ashamed to begin
away down at the foot of the ladder
an’ work up.”—Illustrated Sunday
Magazine.
UNFORTUNATE SNEEZE.
In Boston, as every one knows,
the symphony concerts are viewed
in the light of sacred ceremonials.
In this connection the story is told
of two little girls of a certain fam
ily who returned from the music
hall “in a state of mind.” One of
them carried an expression of deep
scorn; the other an air of great de
jection.
“What is the matter, girls ?” asked
some member of the household.
“Was the concert line?”
“The concert was all right,” re
sponded Eleanor. “The trouble was
with Mary. She disgraced herself.”
“Disgraced herself!”
“Yes, she sneezed in the middle

BLACK VELVET.
They were talking about mixed
drinks. “There’s nothing,” remarked
one who looked a3 if he knew, “like
black velvet.”
“What’s that?” asked the others.
“Champagne mixed with beer.
And would you believe it, though I
have always desired to try it, I have
found it absolutely impossible to mix
the two drinks.”
They asked him gently what he
meant.
“Why, it’s this way,” he explained.
“Whenever I buy a beer I haven’t
the price of champagne; and when
ever I buy champagne I haven’t the
price of a beer!”
THE WISE HEN.
Emil Boas, before the sailed for
Hamburg to assume the director
generalship of the Hamburg-Ameri
can line, was asked by a reporter to
tell what changes and improvements
in the great company he proposed
to make.
“I have nothing to say,” said Mr.
Boas. “I desire to emulate the hen.
The hen in one respect is wise. She
doesn’t cackle much until she has
laid her egg. But some people are
always bragging and cackling about
what they are going to do before
hand.”

DETERMINED TO WORRY.
“Whatever you do,” said the
cheery citizen, “don’t worry.”
“That sort of advice is nonsense,”
answered Mr. Sirus Barker. “How
can a man help worrying when he
lives under conditions which render
him liable at any time to be drawn
as a juror in an unwritten-law case.”
LIFE SAVING A LA MODE.
The Victim—Help! Help! I’m
drowning.
Would-Be Hero—Courage, my
brave man! Just wait until I get a
rope, a measuring rod, a Carnegie
application blank, two witnesses and
a notary public.—Bohemian Maga
zine.
SHOESTRINGS VS. HEARTSTRINGS
“I stepped on my shoestrings,”
she explained, as she righted herself.
“That’s better,” he commented,
“than stepping on your heart
strings.”
“It is other people,” said she,
“who step on your heartstrings.”
IN MEMORim.
j Sometimes in the April-kissed
springtime, the little flower we
welcome as the snowdrop, droops
and dies, but its delicate, face has
inspired us to hope, and perfumed
our life with thoughts of purity.
It was even so with the blossom of
humanity that blessed the home of
Mr. and Mrs. W. 0. Scales, of
our city. The sunshine of love
could not warm her life nor the
affection of parenthood beguile
her from droopiug. Her breath
went out like the exhalation of a
sweetly fragrant minion of the
woodland and in her stead was
left only a holy and beautiful
memory—a memory that will last
and sanctify as long as parental
existence. Little Virginia Scales
died Monday evening, Oct., 5,
1908. The small body was laid
to rest in the Odd Fellows’ ceme
tery. May God’s purest angels
guard the little one’s slumbers.
MRS. J. R. PADGITT
Died, Thursday, Oct., 8, 1908,
at her home in Grays, Mrs. Willie
Padgitt, aged twenty years two
mouths and eighteen days.
Seldom has it been our duty to
record so sudden a death. A dark
gloom spread over the whole com
munity when it was whispered
from one to another Thursday af
ternoon that “Willie was gone.”
She was of au affectionate dis
position, bright and winning in
her ways, so that friendship’s
circle was to her a large one. In
deed, it may be said of her, that
“none knew her but to love her.”
Less than two years ago she was
married to J. R. Padgitt of that
place, whom she leaves with a lit
tle babe of eight months to mourn
her death.
Mrs. Padgitt’s sickness was of
but. brief duration, little over a
week. Seemingly with us today
active in life’s round of duty and
love, but gone tomorrow.
Here she played as a child, de
veloping into beautiful girlhood;
hern she married and helped to es
tablish a home of her own ; here
her busy life was spent, her battles
fought, her faithful service render
ed to the world. In this dearest
of all places to her, she lies down
at leugth to sleep and rest. Beau
tifully appropriate such a resting
place, where her kindred sleep and
where a few of her life-long friends
remain to gather about the dear
form with honest tears of Bereave
ment, to lay her away tenderly in
the narrow house with its curtains
of fadeless green.
To her the struggle and burden
bearing of earth are ended, and we
confidently trust that like one who
awakes from a troubled dream she
has awakened to see life’s endless
morning break and knows herself
at home with all the vast throng of
loved ones, missed from earth,
safe about her. Her home in
stincts were strong here in this
fevered world of disappointment.
Her affection for friends and kin
dred was tender and abiding.
Among us all she ranked always
as a woman of culture, refinement,
sympathy, a kind neighbor, de
voted mother and a true friend,
and withal a woman of herioc
mould in bravely meeting the stern
requirements and often the disap
pointments of life.
Gone from our sight! but because
life and love are stronger than
death she is ours still. She is
still the mother of the dear child,
upon whom she doted with such
clinging fondness, and the com
panion still of him who mourns
earth’s greatest loss, and may she
not by this very transition weild
over them a stronger force for
goodness and truth than before.
Services were conducted by Rev.
J. A. Puttersou P. C. of ihe Mc
Crory M. E. Church. Burial took
place at the Perkins’ family lot in
the Augusta cemetery.
Among the deceased’s relatives
that survive her are a mother, Mrs.
M. M. Perkins; a sister, Mamie
and two brothers, H. D. and Vir
gil.

THINK MONKEY MAN AND
FAINT WHEN HE FALLS.
Cotton Plant, Ark. Oct. 12.
A balloon ascension arranged
here Saturday by an enterprising
“merry-go-round” operator, in
which the star performer was a
large baboon, ended fatally for the
baboon, when the parachute failed
to opeu when it was released from
the balloon by a time fuse at a
height of 1,000 feet.
Believing the form hanging tc
the trapeze on the parachute was a
man, many ladies in the crowd
witnessing the ascension fainted,
and almost a panic was caused.
To make the most of an unfor
tunate situation, the owner of the
monkey packed the mangled re
mains in ice and placed it on ex
hibition, so that the results of a
1,000 foot fall might be observed.
