before Esquire Hampton.

Arcadia Items

How do you do, Mr.. Editor. l wish you
well, and as my best girl has forbidden me
writing to her, l thought perhaps you would
not object to my writing to you and telling
you the ups and downs in Arcadia.
First, our proposed hotel is not dead, as
some people suppose, if some Of our city
friends do object to it, and do all they can
to hold Arcadia back, for their own selfish
ends. am sorry to be compelled to change
my mind in regards to their public spirit
and enterprise, but SO it Is. L do not think
rich people ought to be selfish to be-
grudge others a fresh breath of air. God
made these beautiful hills, fresh and invIg-
Grating air, for all-not chosen few, as
they are led to suppose. But our hotel is
sure, though they do object, if only the peo-
pie of this Valley will do their part, and /
think they will.
The incubator is about finished, and
(when completely Mr.. Begley will be pre-
chickens on short notice.
Mr.. Phillips of Kansas City, agent for the
Cont mental Building and Loan Association,
is in Arcadia soliciting stock, and he is meet
ing with good success. am glad our peo-
pie are taking an interest in this Association.
as l think it is a good one-the best in the
State-and by this means poor men can pro-
cure homes for themselves by paying a little
more than rents would cost them. Every
man in these United States ought to have a
home which he could call his own.
Our city is full to Overlooking with sum-
mer visitors. Every available house is full,
and there are plenty more who would gladly
share our health giving air, if they could
only find people generous enough to give
them shelter from the night dews of heaven.
Mrs. Louis BaIdue and son, of Kennett,
Dunklin county, is here visiting her mother,
Mrs. Weathers.
Mr.. DugIas Ringo and Mr.. Medley of
Wolf Island, are hear for the summer.
Mr.. Medley is having Mrs. L. +. Medley's
brick house improved by an additional coat
of paint, and now, Mr.. NJ, would it not be
good time to take the old eye-sore down:
Mr.. j. B. Evans little boy has been very
sick, but is now much improved.
Doss Flowers is also under the weather.
Will write more some other time, il my
girl does not change her mind.
