This is the hest mtark of respect you
can ever h(,pe to gain-f.
A woman's idea of a hopeless idiot
is a man who praises some other B
WOman.
Some women are jealous of an echo
because it manages to invariably get
in the last word.
.Marriage is generally a failure when
a man with a coon skin income mar
ries a woman with sealskin notions. H
While several states have made
guessing contests illegal they still
allow the weather bureaus to remain
in business. bi
The reason some men won't wear a
watch with an evening dress is because pm
they seldom have them both out at the
same time.-New Orleans Item. te

Some women believe in that old tl
adage "Of two evils choose the less
er." That probably accounts for so
many tine-looking women having such it
rusty-looking men for husbands.- r
New Orleans Item.
A temperature of 400 degrees can be
produced only between the carbon
points of an electric are light. The
next hottest place on earth is man's
home when be makes his wife cry
while his mother-in-law is visiting
them. n
The C(lenwoo (Col. ) Post tells of ti
a short family, it is the Threefoot 7
family. That's nothing we know of b
the longest family in the world--the ii
Furlong family. There are eight in
tbh famrilv. and eight furlongs make
a milc.
A ;entieman said the other day that
he htld been figuring on buying an
auoumobLil . but found the cost of
operations very expensive. His friends
now want to know if he had reference
to surgical or mechanical operations.
New Orleans Item.
The letter "H" at the head of all c
prescriptions is derived from the
Latin word recipe, the imperative  
meaning "take." The little dart over
the tail of the "H" is the symbol of
love, of the Latin God Jupiter, and
invests the writer with his authority
by the power of Jupiter. Therefore,
the sign properly reads. "By Jupiter
take this."
A Kansas City young man who had
just married, suggested to his wife
that they argue some question fully
and frankly every morning, in order
to know more of each other. The first
question happened to be: "Can a
woman dress on seventy-five dollars
a year?" He took the atlirmative,
and when last seen was climbing into
a hay loft with the evident intention
of pulling the ladder up after him.
Once in a while we get a notice from
a subscriber to stop his paper, but he
does not send a dollar along to pay
his last year's subscription. Every
person notalready clearly informed
- on the subject, should know that the
Sproper way to discontinue a newpaper
is to settle all arrearage on subscrlp
tion. This is not only the ligltimate
way, but it is the best and only way.
No one who desires to do the square
Stbiag will refuse to accept a paper at
the postofice until all arrearages of
subscription have been paid in full,
and very few people do.
HASN'T GOTTEN OVER IT YET.
"Dad" Hall, our marshal, is a
Simon-pure Democrat and from Mis
souri, and he hasn't recovered from ea
the etffts of his old state flopping th
over into the lHepublican lines last in
November. The other night about 12 A

Would not have happened him.

But ultimately the dissatisfaction so
broadly sown through the country in
recent times by the Tarbells, Lawsons,
orators and journalists is bound to
bear bitter fruit for Standard Oil.
i. Public opinion concerning this mono

e convinced, and from this State it is
, but a step to action. The impulse of
the people is latent but powerful, and

Two Jennings Couples Married.
n Tuesday two Jennings couples were
married in Lake Charles. One couple
e was Ed. C. Hart and Miss Blanche
r- Sivori and the other was T. A. Seeley
ii and Miss Anna Ottjes. They returned
, to Jennings Wednesday and will make
that place their future home. The
Jennings Times-Record has the follow
ing to say in regard to the parties:
Mr. Hart has been a resident of
Jennings for several years being em
ployed as head clerk at Silvens for
several months.
Me Miss Sivori is from New Orleans
,h and is the neice of Mrs. G. Will
0o Brown of this city.
Bs Mr. Seeley is well known in Jen
l7 nings and the surrounding country
W and is now employed at the oil field.
s. Miss Ottjes is also well known in
Jenuings having been a faithful em
ployee of the Fashiot for several
s months and Mr. Meyers has lost a
!k good clerk.
es The whole affair comes as a sur.
f prise to the citizens of Jennings but
I all join with the Times-Record in
of congratulations.

Orangie ''rees for 'Thlis Section.
('harl.s '1. Le,lie, who resides
t atut IiI miles norttl of Jenn ings at
laiVnutmd, made the Times- Ieeerd
j liie a call T''ue day morning and
displ.tiaited a coupaW of of orange trees
lwhich iwert, sRent hint by the depart
nin nt of agricultre. The trees, it is
clainmed, will Iprospler in this country
and stand severe co!dt. lie applied to
the depart ment several imonths ago
antl this itnrning receivedt one ulu.sk
eitrango and and Willits citrange
which he will plant on his farm north
of the city. J. D. hitter, also of
Iiaymond, has received one of each 4
variety.
It has been claimed time and again
that this is an oran:ne grotwing coun
try, and these gentlemen think they
can prove it with these trees. Tthe
tests which have been made by either
I the Rcsk citrange or the Willits
Scitrange indicate that it is much less
susceptible to injury by cold than the
e ordinary orange. Young trees in
t northern Florida have endured severe
cold weather when the thermometoer
registered from 15 degrees to 17 de
grees fahrenheat without loosing
s their leaves. At the Georgia experi
f ment station the Rusk citrange sur
vived a temperbure of 8 degrees F. in 1
December, 1901, without serious in
jury. It is believed that the trees
° can be grown without protection in
n South Carolina, Georgia, Northern
Florida, Alabama, Southwestern
° Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana,
eastern and southern Texas, Arkan
sas, Arizona, New Mexico, and the
wurnmer regions of low altitude in
s California, Oregon and possibly
f Washington. The distribution of the
d stock of this variety by the depart
d ment of agriculture will be limited to
d to these sections.-Jennings Times
Record.
