Editors Commercial Union City, Tenn.: I have been a silent but u- terested reader of The Commercial since coming to Kansas City and wanted to express my appreciation to you for your kindness in giving me each weelc news from home. The Commercial is a very welcome visitor and I wish it every suc cess. I only take the one paper pub lished in the State of Tennessee. I en joy reading the "Cousins" letter very much, but notice several familiar names missing, among them that of "Gypsy" and "Uncle Bildad," really old friends. I hope to see their names again. I notice many new correspondents. I am interested in them all. We are having some fine autumn weather in Kansas at the present time, but with an occasional warning of winter. There is a difference in the climate of Kansas and that of Tennessee and Kentucky. The winters here are more severe, while the scorch ing heat of summer goes hard with those unaccustomed to such heat, and it is hard to accustom ones self to the high winds here. On a recent Sunday at the hour of 1:30 o'clock p. m., Kansas City was wrapped in darkness, and many people used artificial lights, myself among the number while trying to write. We were treated to a regular down-pour of rain, afterward hail, with thunder and lightning. I cannot re member ever before seeing such dark ness at that hour. Many people here depend entirely on gas, that is if they are fortunate enough to get their supply cold, live in hope, and pay their gas bill which eoes on just the same. Coal takes the place of wood. I prefer the latter Nothing beats a nice, cheerful wood fire in some trouble, as the decree has gone forth they must either show up their books or go out of business, v Many people are out of employment here. The schools all over both cities are making preparations for their,, annual donation to the Orphans Home and other charities in this city. All the children' will take their offerings to the colleges and the substantial groceries will be loaded into wasons and conveyed to the different institutions for which they are intended. Kansas City poor will be pared for. 'Yesterday was "Tag Day" and something over ten thousand five hundred dollars was donated to the various charitable institutions. , Will the editors and all the readers of The Commercial think nio hasty if I now wish one and all a Merry Xmas? I hope not, for all have my best wishes. Your old time friend, Attention Farmers Feed your hogs until they are fancy fat, but it is not likely that they win go much higher, if any.

Mrs. Ann Belcher, aged 73 years, died at her home near Brevard's Crossing, this county, Monday morning, Nov. 29, 1909, at 11 o'clock. Mrs. Belcher was a native of Middle Tennessee, but a resident of Obion County since girlhood. She was a sis-y-ter of Attorney Wm. McCall, of ftum boldt, and of the late Hery McCall, of . this city. She leaves a sister, Mrs. Hol land, of Lebanon, and four children, -Mrs. Bud Noah, Mrs. Flournoy Moss, Thomas and Joe. v ' Mrs. Belcher was a member of the Christian Church. She was more than that, a good woman, and in the esteem of her neighbors one of the noblest characters of any community or peo ple. Not a case of sickness that she did not administer, not a pillow that her hand did not smooth and rest an aching, tired head or a restive, wasted form. The consciousness, the intuition of motherly care, she devined every -v. craving appeal for relief and succor,and her heart went out to these souls iu dis tress. Her Words were comfort and her dispensations balm. In every good v work, in charity and in all that lifts life and character above the ordinary human sphere Mrs. Belcher was indeed a notable inspiration. She was not only esteemed everywhere, but loved by those who knew her well. The life of such a woman cannot but leave its incense of Godliness and sweet ness upon the world, and upon those linked with the ties of filial attachment a memory of all that is dear. The remains were taken to Salem for burial Tuesday morning, and there serv ices were held, conducted by Bev. New- bill. Interment was at Salem Cem- Blankets at prices rarely equaled, in 104 and 114 w, iu Jiiirrv ?ale bezins to-day.
