The Old Mans Advice.

A talkative old man gives the
following advice to boys.
Once l was young and now | am
old and I've never seen girl un-
faithful to her mother that ever
became worth one-eyed button to
her husband. 1t isn't a guess. 1t
isn't exactly written lin the Bible,
but it is written large and awful in
the miserable life of misdt home.
I'm talking for the boys this time
If one of you boys come across a
girl with her face full of roses. who
says, as you come to the door: 81
can't go for thirty minutes, for
the dishes are not washed, you
wait for that girl, sit right down
on the door step and wait for her,
Because some other fellow may
come along and right there you
lose an angel. Wait for that girl
and stick to her like a burr on a
mules tail.

On last Tuesday evening the la
dies of the First Presbyterian
church gave a reception to Rev.
McFarlane and wife. The home OF
Hon. R. B. Williams, one of the
most handsomely appointed in the
state, was thrown open for the oc-
casion. The drawing-rooms were
thronged for the four hours with
Texarkana's most cultured people,
Mrs. Williams, with Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry Moore, Judge and Mrs. B. T..
Estes, and Mr.. and Mrs. G. w,
Fouke, welcomed the guests in the
reception hall, while IN the drawing
rooms Rev. and Mrs. McFarlane
were presented by DR.. and Mrs. IF.
L Wisdom and Mr.. and Mrs. j. S.
Ragland. Ices we're served through
out the evening; several musical
numbers added a charm to the oc-
casion. Rev McFarIaue has been
accorded warm welcome to our
midst. The First Presbyterian
church has shown her appreciation
of having secured one of the brain
lest men of the west and one of the
most successful pastors in the
church for her own.

j. ]. Kress Here

We see from the Globe Democrat
that Mr.. ]. ], Kress has been APP
pointed at the head of the X. c., P.
& G. Road car service and also su-
perintendent of Telegraphy, with
headquarters here, Mr. Kress
came in yesterday, but the report
er failed to meet him. We
learned several days ago that Mr..
Kress would be made chief of these
departments and the published re
port in the Globe Democrat we
suppose is correct. We are GER
tainly glad to have!Mr, Kress and
his good lady back with us and hope
it will be very long time before
they are removed again, il ever.

Street preaching was very popu-
lrr here several years ago and al
most daily we could hear the voice
of some minister on the street talk
ing to the crowds that would gath
er about them. At first the peo-
pie contributed literally to these
men, but later on regarded them as
"che; tnuts, and paid neither mon
ey nor attention to what they said.
Yesterday there was young man
who came here from somewhere,
who revived street corner gospel
ing and held forth near the
Palace drug store. He had a few
listeners who did not seem to be
drinking in the burning words of
the eXhorter as he intended they
should, but this did not dismay
him, as he quoted scripture from
an open Bible, telling them of the
awful doom that awaited the trans
gressor,

We ask the good, substantial
