When you pull down the town
in which is your home, you are
pulling down yourself, and when
you build up your town you
build up yourself and your
neighbor. Try and banish from
your mind the mistaken idea that
all good things are away off in
some other locality. Give your
town all the praise it can legiti
mately bear. It certainly will do
you no harm and will cost you
nothing; and above all patronize
your home institutions—including
the printing office.
A dollar bill may carry to its re

subscribers are not holding back
their dollar bills for fear they may
carry some contageous disease to
us. If they are, we assure them
we are safe, having had the mumps,
whooping-cough, measels, scarlet

other diseases. So bring along
your dollar bills and we will give
you a nice clean receipt for them.

To place your umbrella in a rack
indicates that it is about to change
owners; an umbrella carried over
a woman, the man getting noth
ing but the drippings of the rain,
signifies courtship; when the man
has the umbrella and the woman
the drippings, it indicates mar
riage ; to carry it at an angle un
der the arm signifies that an eye is
to be lost by the man who follows
you; to put a cotton umbrella by
the side of a silk one means “ex
change is uo robbery;” to lend an
umbrella may be interpreted, “I
am a fool;” to carry an umbrella
just high enough to tear out men’s
eyes and knock off men’s hats sig
nifies, “I am a woman.”
FARMER’S UNION DAY.

Will Be Tuesday, October, 9th.
The members of the Farmer’s
Union have been hearty supporters
of the great State Fair to be hold
at Oaklawn Park, Hot Springs,
Oetober 1st to 10th., ever since the
organization of the A. S. F. A.
At the State Convention held in
Little Rock a short time ago, the
Union accepted the invitation of
the Fair Association to meet in a
body during the Fair and accord
ingly selected Tuesday October 9th

immense parade by the various
County Unions with banners. An
important and interesting oratoric
al program will take place in the
great Auditorium in the Fair
Grounds. The opening address

The afternoon will be devoted to
the great agricultural, horticultur
al, live-stock exhibits, and other
features of the Fair.

rates, the direct value of the State
Fair to the''farmers, the preseut
prosperous and promising crop sit
uation throughout the state, and
the general enthusiasm with which
the State Fair is being welcomed
as a permanent annual institution,
all conspire to make Farmer’s Un

NOTICE
After July, 20th, I will work for
cash only, as cost of material and
labor are continually advancing
and prices are too low to do a cred
it business. .
I find that many times accounts
that I considered good are by reas
on in changes of fortune of some
customers, owing me are rendered
unvaluable. I have found that 1
am banking on good health and
good business ability, honesty and
good luck of a great many people
who’s account I carry on my book
and you will agree with me that iu
so doing I am taMug big chance
in my business.
I find that many times it cost
me more time and expense to col
lect acc’ts as to do the work. So I
adopted the plan of doing a cash
business, which will be an advant
age to my customers as well as my
self. I ask the continuance of
your patronage as well as to share
the benefit of doing business on a
<«ish basis. Thanking you for
vour past favors, I am,
