Blessed is the poor man" Pick
pockets never bother him, and the road
agents give him wide berth. The tax
collector never hounds him. No one
asks him to endorse. If the bank breaks
he can grin and bear it like man. He
never runs over head and ears in debt
and is not bothered by lawyers or har-
rassed by litigation. Burglars never
invade his premises and he sleeps in
peace. When he dies no one questions
his will or attempts to confiscate his
bones. Blessed, therefore, are the poor
in pocket for they always get their
moneys worth.
The Marietta Chautauqua will open
Sunday, June 30th, with sermon from
Hon. George Vending, and during the

of the ablest lecturers on the American
platform, Vending, Dixon, Bob Taylor
and others. The musical feature this
year will be grand. The European Bell
Ringers, fine brass band and glee club
VIII be present. 1t is hoped that the
Ladies Ariel Sextette Club can be en-
gagged. Look out for the best Chautau-
qua in the history of the South in this
line.
