Hill formerly resided here. lie
came to Bolivar when II years of
age, aud was successfully engaged
in the mercantile business here for
many years, afterwards moving to
ST. Louis, later to Memphis. He
is still a loyal friend of Bolivar and
of Hardeman County and never
loses an opportunity to speak good
word for both. Many are the
young men from this town and
community who are indebted to Je-
rome Hill for start in lite. Mr..
Hill has travelled a great deal
throughout this country and Eu
rope. and he says he knows of no
country where a man can live as
comfortably and for as little expen-
diture as in this Mississippi Valley.
He says that his experience fully
convinces him that there Is no Sc
curity so safe as real estate; that
the South is now just emerging
from long period of depression;
the small improvements now, he
believes, is only the beginning and
he anticipates gradual and lasting
increase in values. Mr.. Hill says
our people do not seem to realize
how cheap real estate is at this
time, and those who are so fortu
nate as to invest, he believes, will
be rewarded with profit in the flu
ture.

\ happiness has come into our home,
And fl He'd US full of cheer
And added sweetness to the love
OF mother kind and dear.
l cannot tell you how felt
When l saw the little girl,
With her little hands and tiny feet,
More precious than pearl.
She is good girl as ever was,
And hardly ever cries at ALL
But when she cries, and cries sure enough,
You never heard such a squall.
But this does not keep her from being good:
She is just good as ever,
She's not much bigger than a mouse,
And almost as light feather

Among the Basqucs funeral festivi-
ties were kept up not only after the
funeral. but also for eight days more,
and on New Years day, when they
were repeated. In their case this was
a purely religious ceremonial observ-
auce, even if it originated in pagan
days. For religion has entered into
and still peryadeS the funeral rites of
the Basques to a degree now hardly
conceivable. The deceased who was the
head of the family, probably belonging
to the third religious order, was usual
ly buried in the appropriate dress of
the order. The funeral was presided
over by the serore, who was n sort OF

came down from the time when wom-

Up to 1866 in Guipuzcoa on the oc-

subsequently eaten, survival, of

down the street came at long gallop
an old fellow mounted on a thin, eve
necked sorrel colt whose long rusty
tail whipped between his legs at every
jump. Up to the courtyard gate he
clattered and, dismounting, flung the
rein over the post in utter disregard

"Whatw exclaimed Dave; then re-
covered himself what do you want
that for?'
She's forged my name, and she's
got to 90 to the pen'tentiary," said he.

seeing the gravity of the situation, and,
turning, he led the way into his Office

exclamation, but stopped to listen. Il
suppose little Billy would be sorry at

or he might go down to see her once a
year or so for a few minutes in his
breeches if she lived. He'd miss her
some. If she died, she'd go to Johnny.
Well, the Hackles wouldn't be sorry.
Yes, l can do it, | think" he said,

and speaking positively.
