a BOOMING YOUNG CITY.

Not everybody knows that a
booming young city is coming to
the front out forty miles north of
Texarkana, on the Texarkana & Ft.
Smith railroad, but it is a fact nev-
erthless.
Winthrop is the name of this city,
and, in view of its fine location, at
the soon to-be terminus of one rail-
road, and the principal inland town
on another, its fame is not surpris-
ing. The Texarkana & Fort Smith
road will soon be completed to it,
and a branch railroad will be built
out to Rocky Comfort. This will
give it two railroads.
Winthrop is located on a beauti-
full, high plateau, midway between
the Red and Little rivers, with no
city of consequence nearer than
Texarkana, and being, only six
miles from the Indian Territory,
may hope for a big trade from this
fertile region.
A splendid opportunity is now
afforded investors, as well as per-
sons seeking desirable location for
for a new home. The following
persons have bought lots, within
the past few days; M, H. Bales
of Ohio, S. B. Andrews, M. D, Til
son, W. L. Stout, A. L. Burk, w.
B. Weeks, J. W. Gardner, ]. H. Big
ger, j. Bilbrey, George Mcdaniel,
], w. Davis, j. A. Patching, Mary
j. Wright, J. H. Cheatham, A. H.
Willingham, J. E. Smith and G.. W.
Dawson.
Now is the time to invest, as
choice business lots can be had for
SIS and best resident lots for $25.
Those who wish to buy before the
railroad reaches the town should
call on or address O. H. Pennock,
town site agent, Benefited Hotel,

He Is a Privileged Character on Board

Sailors are the children of the sea.
Cut off as they arc from all that makes
life merry, they take to simple sports
and pets. This is especially true on
the big white ships that sail in the

fort Jack takes Is in cultivating pets,
and on board every warship some sort
of menagerie is to be found The
best ard most unique happy family"
in the navy is that kept on the "San
Francisco" the splendid flagship of
the North Atlantic squadron. Though
the dignity of the navy is at it's high
est development on flagship, that
formal stiffness which great men have
about them is well-pigh banished from
the San Francisco by the antics of
Billy" the ships goat. He is the
idol of four hundred pranl1-loving sail
ors, and his education is anything but
what nice little black-and-white
goats should be.
But Billy is privileged because he
would be able TO write "A. B." after
his name if he knew how. That means
he is an old sailor who has crossed the
line and has been around the Horn.
The San Francisco was built in the
city whose name she bears; and as she
was. the first warship to be constructed

The vanity of human endeavor, when
it is directed toward the attainment OF

the news of the death of Napoleon
Bonaparte at st. Helena was received
in Paris Napoleon had been the mas
ter of Europe; he had reached the
height of human glory, and in France,
and particularly in Paris, all things
had centered around his name
Quite recently the memoirs of Louis
A.ime Martin, French man of letters
of the early part of the present CEN
tury, and an acute observer of men and
affairs in his time, have been published
in Paris for the. first time, In them,
under date of July 6, 1921, occurs mote
which shows what the name of the
Emperor Napoleon" had become at
that time.
''Bonaparte is dead" says Martin,
"and the news is repeated coldly and
forgotten, and people go on to talk Of

inches long, into the center of the top

in the ground, in space where you
can have free swing of fifteen feet
from the pole on every side.
Take an oak or hickory bar four and
one-half inches wide, four inches thick
and two feet long, and bore a hole in
the center of such size as to permit the
bar to turn freely on the pin in the top
of the pole. Near each end of this bar
bore hole about one-half an inch in
diameter.
Secure to each end of the bar, by
passing it through the small hole and
firmly tying, good piece of rope,
with loop of at least two and one
half feet at the lower end. When
these looped ropes are suspended from
the crossbar they must touch the
ground, or clear it by only few
inches at the bottom of the pole.
Above the loop fix short, round
piece of wood to form q hand piece.

loop piece of carpet or bagging.

Two of you must put your right
legs through the saddles, so as to
bring the body on the outside of the
loop, away from the pole. Grasp the
hand piece and run in circle as far
away from the pole as possible; as You
gain momentum you will find yourself
supported easily in the saddle, and will
be enabled to swing entirely around
the pole, often making the circuit sew

with the feet. If you wish to reverse
the movement place the left leg, in

AtmosphericaI Curios.

If it were possible for one to rise
above the stratum of air which SUR
rounds the planet earth, the sun would
appear to the observer as huge,
sharply ball of fire, while
everything else would be wrapped in
impenetrable darkness This is true,
because we know that there could be
no sensation of light conveyed to the
brain without an atmosphere for the
suns rays to act upon. But, on the
contrary, if the earth's atmosphere ex-
tended to height of seven hundred
miles. instead of forty-five or fifty, as
is probably the case, the suns heat and
rays could never penetrate it. Had
such have been the state of things ''in
the beginning" this earth would never
have been populated with its varied
forms of animal life. But, should such
state of affairs accidentally be
brought about through some unknown
agency, every vestige of animal life
would perish from the face of the earth
in very short time, and the terrors OF
starvation would be augmented thou.

would be wrapped in darkness darker
than the blacllest midnight. St Loui'
