Don’t judge a man by his
clothes. God made one and the
tailor made the other. Don’t
judge a man by his family, for
Cain belonged to a good family.
Don’t judge a man by his failure
in life, for many a man fails be
cause he is too honest to succeed.
Don’t judge a man by the house
he lives in, for the lizard and the
rat often inhabit the grander
structure. When a man dies they
who survive him ask what proper
ty there is left behind; the angel
who bends over the dying man
asks what good deeds he has sent
before him.

Jonesboro, Arkansas.
City election next Tuesday.
Every citiz^u of McCrory should
go to the polls and vote for clean
politics. Vote for men who will
make and enforce laws that will
protect their homes, families and
theirselves. If you fail to cast
your vote, and men are elected
that will do that which is not best
for the morality of our little city,
then you have not done your duty
as a good citizen.
GOOD COMPANY
Young men are often at a loss
to know the best manner of spend
ing their leisure hours. A few
suggestions on this point may be
of service. “Evil communications
corrupt good manners,” and in
like manner good associations ex
ert a most beneficial influence.
The society of a refined and in
telligent lady should be desired.
If you have a true woman for a
friend, you have in her a treasure
indeed. Seek her society when
ever practicable, not necessarily
as a lover, but as an earnest friend
and companion. No matter if her
conversation does not sparkle with
wit, or not exhibit profound cul
ture and erudition. No matter
if you are acquainted with all her
home amusements and know “all
her songs by heart.” In her
presence you will lose t all relish
for vicious pleasures and receive
mental and moral improvement.
SCHOOL NOTES.
Remember Miss Faucette’s con
cert, April, 12.
Misses Myrtle Wood and Myr
tle Marsh have been absent this
week.
One of the best school enter
tainments of the year, “A South
ern Scene.” At the school audi
torium, April, 26.
The elocution and song recital
at the school auditorium Friday
night for the benefit of the school
drew a respectable audiance and
was a decided success and many
complimentary remarks on the
evening’s program have been
heard. As a reader Miss Duna
way received merited applause
after each number, and is regard
ed as one of the most charming
elocutionists that have appeared in
our city. The music by Miss
Faucette and her corps of pupils
was an effective factor in the suc
cess of the evening’s program.

CRUDE THOUGHTS FROfl THE EDITORIAL PEN.
When a man has no mind of his
own, he can easily find a woman
who will give him apiece of her’s.
The housewife who at night
raises the shades of her prettily
furnished parlor, that the world
in passing may catch a glimpse of
the happy picture within, does a
good work for civilization.
The thought that “no one cares
and no one knows” blights many
a bud of promise. Be it the
young artist at the easel, the work- \
man at his bench, the boy at his
mathematical problems or your
little girl at the piano, give what
praise you can.
is YOUR HOnE COSY?
There are many so-called homes
that do not deserve the name at
all. Home means comfort, but
when we have it fixed up so elab
orately that we must sit in the
garret of the back yard to gen
uinely enjoy ourselves, then it is
high time we made a change and
turned out the too-good-to-use
articles and substitute for them
real homely things that we could
enjoy every day of the year and
every moment of the day.
Men like pretty home-makers,
no mistake there. They can ap
preciate beauty as well as the next
one, but they want that beauty to
be of an order that appeals to their
comfort. Of what good are cush
ions so elaborately embroidered
that no bead can rest on them!
What, sense is there in easy chairs
of such rich material that they
are quite the reverse of the name
given them! Is there any satis
faction in a room the furnishing
of which cost hundreds of dollars,
when it is only open at rare in
tervals, when the owner, perhaps,
sits by the kitchen fire or in some
dingy sitting-room, where he can
put his feet on the fender if he
wants to, can smoke, and as a
great indulgence, tilt back his
chair!
Let the sunshine into the gloomy
rooms, have a conch to lie on, a
piano to play on; in fact, a home
to live in; one wherein a sense of
hospitality and good cheer exudes
from the very tables and chairs,
instead of a mausoleum of gloomy
elegance, wherein every thing is
for show and nothing to be used.
