Texas wants more good farm
ers. fruit growers, dairymen and
live, progressive people of every
vocation to help develop her re
sources and extend her indust
|
ries.
Co-operation of effort is just
as essential as concentration of
energies. So let's all pull to
gather for the uplift of town,
community and state. It's get
together, stay—together and!
pull—together work counts.
If we are not our brother's
keeper, we should at least be in
terested in his prosperity when
we realize that own success is
largely dependent on his. So
let's patronize home industries
and help exerybod>—ourselves
Included.
Do you believe that we have
one of the best towns on earth—
or may be you believe it is the
best if so, that is better—and do
you occasionally let other people
know that you believe it? To be
lieve in one's own town, county
and state is a requirement for
success that is secondary only to
the basic principle of belief in
One's own ability. To let others
know that you believe in it is the
nost effective advetisement a
town can have.
Secretary Wilson of the De
partment of Agriculture in a re
cant report said: "The move
ment for good roads is going to
benefit the farmer in getting his
products to market expeditiously
in all kinds of weather at a re
duced coat!. This, if nothing
dee, should cause every farmer
to vote for good roads for the
primary object of farming is to
g«t the products of the farm to
Market in their moat salable coo
^ttioa at the lowest possible coat.
The Dwrcmbpr Woman's Homo
Companion is a *p*«<ially lllun
Irated and beautified Christmas
number. It contain* aside from
the usual illustrations, a great
many picture* in color. 8tories
are included in a greater num
ber than usual and several of
them are extraordinary presen
tation* of the Christmas spirit—
full of nction and the best kind
of sentiment. Home of the con
tributor* of the fiction are: Jet
fery Farnol, Mary E. Wilkins
Freeman, Norveil Harrison,
Owen Oliver ane Hulbert Foot
ner.
One of the notable special ar
ticles in the number is entitled
"What Christmas Might Be."
It is an eloquent plea by Charles
E. Jefferson, pastor of the
Broadway Tabenacle in New
York City. Other special ar
ticles worthy of particular men
tion are "American Mural Deco
ration," FashlightPhotopraphy"
"A Christmas Falacy," Last
Minute Gifts," and "The Profes
sional Parent."
The special department, for
which the Woman's Home Com
panion is famous, are filled with
good reading—such, for exam
ple, as a remarkable article on
'The Healthy Boy," by Dr.
Roger H. Dennett, a great spe
cialist in New York, "A Girl's
Charities at Christmas," "Sam
Loyd's Own Puzzle Page," aad
many other contributions.
The fashion, household deco
ration and handicraft features
of the Companion are remarkable
for their interest and practi
cality.
A Vena Fro® Scriptnrt.
A Sunday school superinten
dent, smug and self sufficient*
was fond of asking questions for
the privilege of answering them
himself, after encouraging the
scholars into the belief that they
knew the reply. On one occas
ion when he was talking about
cruelty to animals he discoursed
with much feeling.
"Only a coward would abuse a
creature that had no way of de
fending itself," he said. "Why,
I once knew a little boy who cut
off a calf's tail. Think of it, child
ren, he took a knife and cut the
tail right off! Can any one tell
me a verse in the Bible that
would have taught this bad,
cruel boy not to have cut off the
calf's tail?"
There was the usual pause, fol
lowed by the uneasy shuffling of
feet and then a youngster lifted
his hand. In reply to the super
intendent's "What is it, my
son?" he sturdily repeated;
"What God hath joined togeth
er, let no man put asunder."—

Sa|ar C&ne Crop Domi|«d.
Austin. Texas, Nov. 30.—Offi
cial dispatches to Governor Colt
quitt today were to the effec
that the freezes of Tuesday and
Wednesday nights have practi
cally wiped out the sugar cane
crop of South and Southeast
Texas and materially damaged
that of Louisiana. Two of the
penitentiary commissioners re
ported that the damage to the
cane crop on penitentiary farms
alone would amount to over
$500,000.
"The sugar cane planters of
the Brazos Valley and Southeast
Texas are practically ruined,"
ran one of the dispatches. The
temperture of the blighted region
was 14 degrees above zero last
night. This year's sugar cane
crop was the finest in the his
tory of the State penetentiary
farms, in that commnunity.

CHILDREN INJURED
Ordinary Cathartic* and Pills and
Harsh Phislcs Cause Distressing
Complaints.
You can not be over-careful in
the selection of medicine for
children. Only the very gentlest
bowel medicine should ever be
given except in emergency cases.
Ordinary pills, carthartics and
purgatives are apt to do more
harm than good. They may cruse
griping, nausea and other dis
tressing after-effects that are of
ten health-destroying.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable rem
edy, which we know, for consti
pation and associate bowel disor
ders. We have 'such absolute
faith in the virtues of the reme
dy that we sell it on our guaran
ty of money back in every inst
ance where it fails to give entire
satisfaction, and we urge all in
need of such remedies to try it
at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten just
like candy, and are particularly
prompt and agreeable in action;
may be taken any timw, day or
night; do not cause diarrhoea,
nausea, griping, excessive lose
ness or undesirable effects; they
have a very desirable but posit
ive action upon the organs with
•which they come in contact, ap
parently acting as a regulative
tonic upon the relaxed muscular
coat of the bowel, thus overcom
ing weakness, and aiding to re
store the bowels to more vigor
ous and healthy activity.
Rexall Ordelies commonly com
pletely relieve constipation, ex
cept of course when of surgical
character. They also tend to
overcome the necessity of con
stantly taking laxatives to keep
the bowels in normal condition.
Three sizes of packages; 10 cents
25 cents and 50 cents. Remem
ber, you can obtain Rexall Rem
edies in Jefferson, only at our
store, the Rexall Store, by W. J,
Sedberry.
Good Positions.
A written guarantee will he
given to secure for you a good

ed to come to the humf of Mr*. 0. |
W. Lathrop at H 00 p.m. On be
ing welcomed he and the family j
nut by the warm fireside, enjoying
a good family chat, after about one
half hour music sounded forth in
an adjoining room. The door was
opened and «uch a magnificent
sight aa greeted the eye! The room
was elegantly decorated with ivy,
circling around the walls of the
room the Epworth League stood
with bowed head, laying on the
floor before them, encircling the
room were branches of pine, clot
ted here and there with cotton, a
magnificent bower was erected, on
which waa hung;'Epworth League"
with the emblem, in letter? of sil
uer. Underneath this one sat and i
rendered a very appropriate fare
well solo, Then the entire compa
ny sang, "There Shall be Showers
of Messings," after which the pas
tor waa led into that beautiful
room, dimly lighted with Japanese
lanterns, and placed in a chair in
the middle of the room. What was
to happen, he knew not Hut he
soon had some idea when from some
mysterious source over his head a
bag burstcd and scores of little bags
rained upon him. There were "the
showers of blessings." A counting
showed there to be a magnificent
sum of money. It was nigh impos
sible for him to make the due re
marks, and as he sat there in be
wilderment. many other presents
were gratuitously presented, a most
pleasant evening was spent. Games
and the merry chatter of a happy
pastor and his faithful Leagures,was
heard to a late hour. To Mrs- List
epecially and all the Leagures gen
erall, is credited the success of the
evening.
That Epworth League, with Wil
lie Parvino, that live enthusiastic,
promising young man as president,
ably assisted by his corps of offi
cers, certainly know how to do
things! One can seldom find an
organization more harmonious and
enthusiastic in its manouvere.
Their efforts are proving more help
ful; more than one needy homes in
this town has been assisted by the
mercy and help department, with
Miss Meff Lathrop, V-pres. The
devotional meetings of a Sunday
evening are never slow or dry,with
Miss Carrie Mae Murray as V pres.
The missionary department, with
Miss Mae Kirkland V pres, the lit
erary and social with Mrs. Parvi
no, V pres. are keeping step with
the others in their progress. And
with Miss Waldo Murray for secre
tary and Mrs. Kula List as treasu
urer, who could question but this
is one of the livest young people's
organizations in the city Grad
ually. our members increase Every
one has a cordial invitation to
' look in on us". The pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church
congratulates himself in being so
intimately associated with these
promising young christians.

SATISFACTION—OR MOM V REFUNDED
NO VACATION.
Will Continue Right Through the
Holidays.
The Tyler Commercial College
of Tyler Texas, has aranged this
year, as usual, to accommodate
all of its students who desire to
continue their studies during
the Christmas holidays. Those
who evpecially desire to return
to their homes to spend Xmas,
will be excused Friday evening
Dec. 22nd, and will be expected
to take up their work again on
or before Jan. 1st 1912. Usually
about 400 students remain and
work right through the holidays.
New students may enroll at
any time during the Xmas holi
days. We advise all to enroll as
soon as possible; there is noth
ing to be gained by waiting until
Januay 1st. We have no term
openings; our school is the same
one day as another, just like a
bank, railroad or business houes.
The students work is princi
pally all individual instruction,
and each and every student is
pushed each day to his full ca
pacity. Slow students are not
over-crowded trying to keep up
with fast ones, and fast students
are not held back and discourag
ed on account of slow ones, It
would really be better to enroll
and get started before the big
January rush.
Upon arriving in our city, go
direct to the College, where you
will be given prompt attention
and choice of nice boarding place
with private family, at a cost of
from $2.50 to $3.50 per week for
board and lodging.
Tuition for a complete, unlim
ited life's scholarship of book
keeping, shorthand, or telegra
phy is $50; any two courses com
bined $95. If you have not read
our large beautifully illustrated
catalog, write for one. It will
give you full particulars and de
tailed information regarding
America's largest and greatest
commercial school. The school
that gives you an education for
which the business world promp
ly and gladly pays cash.

In the same number of The
American Magazine, G. H. Wells
goes on with his serial novel,
'Marriage," and Senator La
Follette, of Wisconsin prceeds
with his Autobiography. In ad

Ray Stannard Baker begins a
series of articles on "Wonderful
Hawaii—A World Experiment
Station," in which he shows how
the property of the island has
fallen into the hands of a very
few, most of whom are descend
ants of early American and Eng

Wrong Man," in which the au

the Hungarian who srrved twenty

Will Irwin tells a wondeful

SPECIAL AGRICULTURAL TRAIN
In co-operation with the M. K.
&. T. and the Texas Central
Railway we are going to operate
a special agricultural train over
their lines starting December 4th
and finishing December 15th.
This will be a train of nine cars
consisting of lectures, exhibits
and demonstration from the
Agricuitural & Mechanical Col
lege of Texas at College Station,
Texas and from the College of
Industrial Arts, Denton, Texas.
In your county the train will
stop as follows:
At Jefferson, December 14, at 5:30 p.
m. Lecture in Court House or
Opera House at 7:30 p. m,
We are very anxious to have
as large attendance at this train
as possible for the lectures and
demonstrations and will appre
ciate any announcements or pub
licity you may be able to give the
matter.
On the exhibit car will be
found some of the finest speci
mens of live stock available in
cluding the grand champion beef
steer of the State of Texas. This
steer has won over $1,000,00 in
cash and several silver cups and
will evidently be worth coming
to see. On the demonstration car
will be found exhibits of soil, fer
tilizers, farm crops, and different
methods of budding, grafting,
etc. Special car will be devoted
to the earring of the good roads
exhibit. Lectures will be given on
stock, judging, soils, fertilizers
crops rotations, dairying, road
building and domestic science.
Special cars will be furnished
for the ladies and children and
and nearly every schoul along
the lines have planned to march
the children to the train in a body
for the one hour stop. What
sort of a showing will your town
make?
Yours very sincerely.
