periect arrangements by - which we
wiil add a montnly magagine supple
ment. ‘T'his supplement will be fill
ed with short and continued stories
by modern writers. It also carries
a fashion department and will, we
think. add much interest and in
struction to the Herald for its read
ers. Qur aim in incurring this ad
ditional expense to ourselves is to
increase our circulation, and we
fecl that no family in Charlton
county or surroundiug country can
afford to bLe without the Herald. In
making this step forward it is not
our intention tc increase the sub
scription price, which wijll remain
the same as before, one dollar per
year, cash in advance. And right
here we wish to say that we will
treat u'l alike, the cash or its equiva
lent must come or we can’t afford
to send the paper, Our aim is to
go forward, not backwari, and it
takes money to do it. Now is the
time to subsc.ibe.

“Fighting Bob” Evans, duting
his last stay in Washington, was one
evening a guest at a house where he
met a number of the younger set of
the Capital,
As the admiral was leaving, he
chanced to pick vp from the floor a
very dainty handkerchief, edged
with lace. He was gravely inspect
ing this “‘trifle light as air,” when a
rather effiminate-looking young man
hastened forward to claim it.
“Your sister’s, no doubt,” said
the admiral as he handed it over.
“Oh, no,” said the young man;
“*its mine."”
Evans scrutinized the young man
closely, “Would you miud telling
me what size hairpins you use?” he
asked after a pause,—Ex.

But the most glaring and vilest
thing that Roosevelt. ever did and.
which will be a blight onahis chur
acter as long us he Lives, arose out
of the controversy between him and
Judge Parker four years ago. Judge
Parker, on the stump, claimed that
the Roosevelt campaign committee
were nolding up corporations all
over thegcountry for large sums of
‘money with which to purchase the
election| of Mr. Roosevelt. Mr.
Roosevelt in his impetuous Inanner
rushed into print and yelled, liar,
liar, liag,'and the people believed
him'and elected him. Now after
one year the facts came out in pub
lic Mr. Poosevelt’s campaign treas
ury recgived from 10 to 50 thousand
dollars from practically, every large
corporation in the country. Now
who appears to be the liar in this
case?

LIKE A porATO.
Sunday afternoon I overheard
Mary and Bert discussing the morn
ing’s Sunday School iesson.
Bert, who had all faith in his sis
ter’s superior knowledge, eagerly
enquired, ‘““Mary, what does God
look like?”
I was surprised at Mary’s prompt
and svlemn reply: “Bert, God looks
like a potato.”
Upon asking the child where she
had received such an impression,
she replied: ‘“Why you said God
has eyes on all sides, and a potato
is the only thing [ know of that has
eyes on all sides.”—Exchange.
