Regular correspondence
Candidates have been plentiful
here this week.
JEFF Whitley has recently moved
into this community.
L. w. Farmer and son, Brice, Of
Claud we're here yesterday.
j. Z. Melton and wife visited al
Camden Monday and Tuesday.
Whitleyville needs more houses.
The supply does not equal the de-
mand.
While going to Way one day last
week the little son of Joe Melton
had a combat with some kind of q
wild animal, which, the boy afirma,
resembled a tiger. II made short
work of his dogs, and sprang at the
boy, who escaped by running his
mule. This happened in a three
mile stretch Of woods where there
is a dense growth of underground
and high weeds. Some other per-
sons have been frightened in that
locality by the appearance Of the
strange animal, and an effort will
be made to capture or kill it and
find out what it really is.

Reflection of a Bachelor.

A girl that has never been
kissed by man has never had
any temptation to do right.
Why it is that the time wom-
en- talk the most baby talk is
just the minute they wake up?
For some reason when stock
iugs and their carriers don't
match girls act as uncomfort-
able as if everybody knew it.
It's funny. but when lot of
wives get to talking about
clothes all the married men
look more scared than the un-
married girls.
When Il man has made love
to married woman she never
tells her husband about it for
fear he will prevent its happen
ing again.
If there was no looking glasses
wonder if women would wear
some of the things nobody else
ever has?
The only thing worse than
losing a woman's love when
you want to keep it is keepin 6
it when you want to lose it.
Just'don't forget that there
are whole lots Of things IN the
world worse than the worst we
knew. and whole lots better
than the best we know.
No man was ever a woman
hater at the moment he saw
one of them pick up a strange
child crying, wipe off its dirty
face and kiss it-because it is Z
child and she women.
A woman's idea of mans cruel
ty is for him to be able to sieeI

The man who thinks more of
himself than he does of the
cause of Christ, and who seeks
vendication at the expense of
the church is not worthy Of the

Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1901-08-15

There are two streams that
flow out from the cross of Christ
to bless the world-truth and
love. God is love and he mas
manifested his love in the gift
of his Son for the salvation of
the world. In this act we have
the highest expression of devine
love. Jesus says, II am the
truth" and in him is the sum
and fullness of all truth as re.
lated to Christianity.
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1901-08-15

While time shall last men
will draw holy consolation from
the blessed thought that Jesus
is the shepherd of his sheep,
and that no wanderer from the
fold of God can escape the vigi.

stray beyond the purview of his
loving care.
