a .oPACE FILLER.

Dick Hixson of the Monroe
DEMOCRAT, is Il goCd Baptist.
but he has evidently his eyes
for the forbidden. He philoso'
phizes thusly:
There is vast difference be-
tween a shirt waist tail and a
shirt tail. The SHIRT tail proper
is always invisible but the shirt
waist tail is often visible. Sun
day 4 fine form draped in a
fancy pink shirt waist and
gauzy lawn skirt passed up
Main street. The waist showed
almost as distinctly below the
belt as it did above it.
Now the Mercury wants to
know what business Col. HiX-
son had being so closely observ'
ant. That shirt waist, belt and
all. belonged to the girl. Par
is Mercury.
The Mercury ought to have
learned two things long ago.
Fist: A good Baptist is one
thing and a man of the world
is another. Second: That an
old bachelor can always give a
young. man pointers in the game
of life and win out with both
bands down. For Il space filler
Col. Hickson (HixsoH) seems to
be a bonanza for the Paris
rarcrs.

COME AGAIN.

Does the Monroe DEMOCRAT
expect county officers to get out
and build gravel roads. In
what way can they aid in the
construction of roads?-Paris
Mercury.
Blessed is he Who expects
nothing for then Inc will not be
disappointed. The DEMOCRAT
has their pledges in black and
white over their own sigma
lures. The question is one for
them and not the DEMOCRAT to
answer. There are a portion Ct
said officers whom we expect to
learn OF their drawing their full
salaries, allowing eXhorbitant
bills $50 VS. $3.50 and do no
more nor no less. The DEMO
GRAFT does not expect said
officers to soil their lilly white
hands in gravel pit nor sun
burn them while driving a team
hauling gravel, but it does eX-
pcct them to redeem their
pledges or we will try to learn
why The substance of those
pledges is: We, or |. will use
our personal, private and Of
FI-C-I-A.L position and in
hucnce in the interest of
gravel roads. Have they done
it? If not, why not? Deliver
me from my friends etc. Come
