without good reason) think this the ia
uored section of this great Empire
State. The soil is mainly a sandy loan
adapted to raising cotton, corn, all
kinds of small grain, potatoes, melons,
and all kinds of vegetables and fruit.
The fruit and vegetable crop marketed
in Tyler alone this year amounted to
more than 100000. These industries
are just beginning to be fairly de-
veloped. Land that sold for $3.50 to
$500 per acre four years ago, cannot be
bought for $25 now. One man, who
offered his well-improved land for $40
per acre three years ago, sold it few
days since for s43 This indicates how
values are jumping, and the trend of
things.
My work is in fairly good condition.
My church has done, the past year, the
greatest years work in it's So years
history, and we really seem to be just
good started. We have had two fine
meetings within six months. The last,
conducted by DR.. George G. Audham,
of Philadelphia, was marvellous in it's
results among Christians. l give my
deliberate Judgment when 1 say Dr.
Audham is the greatest preacher, in
his special line, of strengthening
rches, on this continent. Spurgeon
and Moody each said of him, "he is
the greatest expounder of the script
ever within 100 miles of where Audham
is preaching, don't fail to hear him and
you will always rejoice over it. We
will have him with US again for the
entire month of May, 1902.
We are on the verge of local option
election in this (Smith) county, though
l hope it will be deferred till Feb
ruary or March. Since living here |
have now and then made "a few feeble
remarks" on the liquor question "just
to keep my hand in." The sentiment
for prohibition is growing rapidly.
Our people are becoming very FESTIVE
under the reign of our "a saloons and
their brood of evils. The fight will be
stiff one, but with proper campaign
ing, we will win.
My visit to the old home and friends,
last May, was to me "a bitter sweet"
My heart ached and longed when l
noted the many vanished faces. My
talk on Forgetting the things which
are behind" at the Baptist church, was
as much to help my depressed feelings
as those who waited so patiently on
my words "How far is it to the grave?"
We are almost there. Are we ready
for its shroud?
This week l received an invitation to
be present at the dedication of the
new church house of Bogue Chitto
church, Pike county, Dec. l. How l
wish l could be there, but other en-
gagements will keep me away.
My whole "tribe" join me in hearty
good cheer, love and best wishes to all

Brookhaven Ladies up to Date"

Eve up to Date in last Saturday

volving dining table as a solution of
the dining room problem, viz: lack of
"befo' de war" servants. Eve had just
visited Gen. Jumel's home in Baton
Rouge and says that with American
ingenuity and French courtesy and
forethought for the housewifely cares"
of his wife, he invented the table; and
further states, to his praise, that the
convenient piece of furniture might be
duplicated, the General having no
patent upon it. We pause to tell our

are three such tables, with the "re-
volving disks" that she describes, and
that as enthusiastic as she, are the
