The Russellville Democrat., 1891-01-15
Potts Station Points.

MT. c. H. Boggess has had some substantial work done on his resi- dencs which adds considerably to appearance, and comfort.
 One of Russellville's shrswd young business boys seems to have been captivated by one of Potts Stations society belles. He is choice at whose shrine he worships, but look out my boy or you WILL be BILLED. Dr. L. T. Ragsdale has begun work on his new residence and we contemplate seeing something grand in the line of architecture when it Is completed. for the Dr. don't like to do things by halves; had himself . fine barn put up ssveral weeks ago. The school district has had quite an addition made to their school house. Two large rooms now in stead of one. Mr. Thomas Brooks impsrts his knowledge of letters sat. isfactorlly to the little fellows, at least they arc all well pleased, unless it's some ugly little fellow who has to stand with his nose to the wall.
 Mir. W. o. Ferguson, Sr., has just completed handsome residence on his place at the Station. It speaks well for both owner, and workman. Mir. Ferguson is . substantial citi- zen, and he and his family adds greatly to society and the school in terests at this place. Glad to vel come such men into our community. This is choice place to build up good school, plenty of material, a quiet civil place, nothing to corrupt the good morals of children, away from the evil influence of the saloon and billiard table. Convenient to all facilities by rail, postoflce and churches. A healthy country, good water, beautiful mountain scenery, fertile soil, fine fruit, sober, well bred, and industrious people. And to all such (as last dsscribed) as are boxing for good place to stop to live, or educate your children would do well to have an eye on this place. You are cordially invited and will be received with open hearts.
 That the children might not cry for milk, one of our contemplating young merchants betook himself to the country where milk and honey fows) to procure an animal of the milk producing kind. It being too far from any shipping point he con. cluded to lead her through. But un. fortunately for the business manager It was hard job. She would neither be led or driven. In this dile mma some one came to his assistance, changed the rope from the animals head to her hind foot, and started them on their way, (the good man reJoicing.) They were in the su
 burbs of the city little later doing fine according to the reporter. Now gentle reader take hint and govern yourself accordingly.
 Mir. E. A. Bell, one of the leading merchants of this place, has had the front of his residence changed ts a model of beauty. It would grace the residence pert Of any city. A fine selection of flowers fill the front yard and portico, all of which pro trays to the bsholdsr the taste and refinement of the occupants. Bsauti. ful flowers, why don't everybody have some howersp Through spring, summer and autumn ws have con stant succession of flowers, and with little trouble we could have a very good variety of flowers, nothing can fill the place, or charm the eye like flowers. Show me lover of flowers, and will show you very fine speci men of humanity. AS you inform the intellect, and cultivate bsnevo lence, and love for all that is noble and pure, so will the love for flow CTS be governed. Flowers has its place to fill, and that should be ev- cry mans front yard, and portico.
