"she Is a Simple Home-Body."


New York Ledger.
Sometimes one hears it said of a
good wife and mother that "she's a
regular home body" The phrase is
simple, but what a universe of trivoli-
ties it excludes. The matronly home
body is, indeed, "Heaven's best gift
to man" and the husband capable of
maltreating so true help-meet Is
only fit for such companianship as
Nebuchadnezzar found in the Baby
lonIsh pastures.
Dashing ladies, whose mission 1t Is
to set the fashions, won't you look In
upon your gentle sister as she sits in
her well-ordered nursery making the
children happy with her presence?
Note how she adjust their little diff
culties, and admonishes, encourages,
instructs, amuses them, as the case
may require. Do you think any
nurse-maId could produce such bar-
mony in that little circle? Is she not
an enchantress? Verify, yes, and her
charm ia "love stronger than death"
for those sweet young faces, where
YOU may see her smiles and frowns
Though she seldom has occasion to
frown) reflected in glee and sorrow
like sunshine and cloud shadow in a
quiet pool What she is she will
teach her daughters to be, and bless
ed are the Sous that have such
mother.

DALLAS LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent
DALLAS, Tex, Aug.


DALLAS, Tex, Aug. Is.
Another terrible accident, the re-
suit of attempting to board moving
car. Harris Jones lost his footing,
and was crushed to death.
Marriage license were issued to A.
]. Zearson and Josephine Zarling.
The wOuld.be bride was surrounded
by the maids in waiting; friends had
arrived and everything ready; the
bride was waiting to be led to the
altar. The groom failed to show up.
When the hour rolled round, mes
sage from him to the bride conveyed
the intelligence that the license had
been lost. 1t Is now understood he
has experienced change of heart
and declines marrying the girl.
Ed. Brown, a stenographer, walk
ed out of window last
night, falling to the hard
pavement below. The extent of in
juries received is not known as he is
still unconscious.
The butchers, drovers and stock
men have formed an organization.
The object is protective, social and
benevolent. They are to celebrate in
grand style at the fair grounds next
Monday. Reduced railroad fare is
given on most of the roads.
1t is now thought Paul Hopes
death, whose decomposed corpse was
found in Oak Cliff Park, was the re.
suit of sunstroke.
Mr.. William Huey, dry goods
clerk, was drowned IN Turtle creek.
He and his two brothers, with sew
eral others, were in bathing. Young
Huey ventured beyond his depth and
drowned despite the efforts to save
him.
T. H. Smith, a saddler from Little
Rock, died at the Phoenix hotel from
an overdose of morphine.
The city attorney informs the school
board they have not the authority to
change the school hours.
Mrs. Logan halls from Missouri.
She called at police headquarters; in
her arms she held a smiling cherub-
to be adopted. 1.-THE mother of this
babe came to my house sick and dis
tressed. The child was born. The
mothers dying request was, take my
babe to relatives, and friends in Dal-
las, ~ was the tale Mrs. Logan told.
D6 llLblt wall was SSub W tuc
Woman's Home. 1t is thought Mrs.
Logan has a stronger claim on the in
fantile being than the Home"
II. Dewitt Talmage lectures in Dali
las September End. Subject: big
Blunders." Dallas is the place for a
lecture on blunders.
Another tale of woe comes TO light.
The son of a respecta bic family con-
nected with leading firm, causes
the everlasting downfall of a young
girl. When her condition becomes
known he sends her away. En- route
home, not tar from Dallas on board
the cars she gave birth to child.
The hotels refused her admittance
her admittance when her crime be-
came known. She sent for her per-
fidious lover. He secured close car
rage and spirited her away. The
mantle of charity falls, and keeps
from the public the name of the man,
but not so kind to the poor, weak
minded trusting girl. Her name is
paraded that all the world may know
of her shame.

Nuts for Advertisers to Crack.

Nuts for Advertisers to Crack.
The man who does not find advertising
profitable generally finds business I'M
profitable.
A business may be ikened to an arch:
if capital and labor represent the pillars,
then advertising is the keystone, without
which the structure must crumble.
Was newspaper advertising a success
with you last year? If not, why not? It
pays others. 1t ought to pay you, and
will if wisely done.-Ayers' Newspaper
Manual
Let your advertisement in all cases ex-
actly correspond with what you really
propose to sell. Be prepared to show the
customer who inquiries the identical
goods, and let price and terms always
tally with your announcements.
Half the battle in advertising is in
knowing what to say and how to say it.
Of all things don't try to say too much
in one advertisement. Remember that
"Brevity is the soul of wit" If you've
thing to sell, name it, with the price,
briefly. If you want anything. waste no
words in needless explanation.

Concerning Home Patronage.

No paper can be published without
home patronage, and every one is inter-
ested in keeping up u home paper. If a
railroad or factory is wanted, the news
papers are expected to work for it. f 9
public meeting is wanted for any pur-
pose, the newspaper is called upon for a
free notice. If any Of the societies have
supper or reception of any kind, the
newspaper is expected to give the neces-
sary notice. The newspaper must puff
the schools and everybody else to advance
the interests of the business men of the
place, and then give them handsome
notice when they pass away, And yet
some Of them do nothing to keep up
home newspaper.
