Our Special Edition
~ Our special edition is out, and
many of them have been sent
o a half dozen different states
already. Itis our aim to place
them where they will be instru
mental in bringing newcomers to
our town and county. We want
enterprising, monied people to
settle in our town, men who are
not afraid to invest their money
in enterprises that would bene
fit the town and themselves.
And, Jeff Davis county extends a
hearty welcome to all thrifty
farmers from other sections who
might come and locate in its
midst.
We are indebted to the City'
Council, and to many of our live,
enterprising and progressive
citizens for assisting us in get
&ing out this edition, for without
their aid we could not have done
SO.
b Thereare no flowery articles
in this special edition, nothing
but plain factsand figures, trath
fully told, and we sincerely hope
that it will be the means of ad
ding many more good and useful
gitizens to our town and ceunty,
ere many months roll by.
A Few Expressions from

F De pol'tician am always tryin’

Jelousy has caused many er
man to git er divorce, when dar
"was no cause for hit.
Er long, keen, lyin’ tongue kin
‘do er lots ob debilment in dis
world, no matter whether hits
jn de mouth ob er man er ‘oman.
De good hook say dat de
Lord dose love er churful giber,
but my ’pinion am, dat dare air
w 0 few ob dese kind ob folks in de
world dese days, dat de Lord
#lon’t take no notice obh ’einn,
Keep yo’ eyeon de mam who
am smilin’ an’ treatin’ ebery
body good on de streets, an’am
as mean as de debil to his wife
an’ chilluns as soon as he enters
his door, :
De hottest place in torment
am fix’d for de man who will
make out to yo’ face dathe thinks
the world ob you, and as soon as
vo’ back am turned will stab you
deep an’ hard wid his old viper
tongue.
Hits strange, but am de gospel
%ruff, de sorrier some men air de
mo’ dair wives seem to think eb
dem. An’ er ’gin, I’s seed’omens
wid smart, nice husbands dat
made ’em er plenty, an’ yit, dese
omens who had de ’spectable
husbands didn’t seem to care er
guss for ’em. ’'Omen folks am
gartantly curius critters. /
P Every closet in this town
should be cleaned out every weelk,
and plenty of carbelic acid or
Jime put around it. This is the
sickly season of the year, and‘
we would advise every family,
not to only look after their closets,
but to clean up from around
their premises and burn the
trash. Our town is not in as
good sanitary condition as it
should pe. : ‘
If you have a habit of going to
sleep in time of service, try this:
Take a silver doller and clasp it
tight in your hand and threaten
%o give it to the preacher if you
go to sleep. Most of you will lik
dy stay awake all day.

Tigje has scat & 810
flakes on her brow, plowed deep
furrows on her cheeks, but is
she ng:fsweet and beautiful now?
The lips are fltin and shrunken;
but these are the lips whicl'have
kissed ‘'many & hot tear fron the
childish cheeks, and they are
the swéetest lips in all the world.
The eye is dim, yet it glows with
the soft radiance of holy love
which can fiever Amde. Ab, yes,
she is a dear old’ mothey. The
sands of life are neavly thn out,
but feeble as she i, she'will go
futher and reach dox? lower sot
you than any other upon 'earth.
You can not walk into a midnight
where she can not see yot; you
can notenter a prison whose bars
will keep her out; you can 'never
mount a scaffold too high "gor Ler
to reach, that she may kiss and
bless you in evidence of her
deathless love. When the world
shall despigse and forsake you,
when it leaves you by the way
side to die unnoticed the dear old
mother will gather you in her
feeble arms and carry you home
and tell you of all your virtures
until you almost forget that your
soul is disfigured by vices. Love
her tenderly and cheer her de
cliring years with holy devetion
