The Shreveport Times

Will have special representative at the
forthcoming session Of the State Leg
islature.
Every man, woman and intelligent
child interested in North Louisiana
should read the Times. The expense
incurred in establishing special Baton
Rouge service during the legislative
term will be great and it will mark a
distinct departure in journalism in this
section of the State. Heretofore North
Louisiana readers have been compelled
to depend for their legislative news on
South Louisiana papers, which having
no particular interest in North Louisiana
affairs have not given them very close
attention. The Shreveport Times will
devote several columns daily to the news
of North Louisiana. One little item in
which you are interested may compen-
safe for the cost of your subscription.
The Shreveport Times in addition to
this special feature contains the full
Associated Press service, all the market
reports, the local news of Shreveport,
news from the various North Louisiana
towns and special Sunday features, all
of which make it one of the leading
dailies Of the South. Subscribe for it
through your postmaster, who has been
appointed its agent in your locality.

sources shows our mettle and uncov.
ers our weakness or our cowardice.
Let God rule without rebellion on
our part. Submit rather than resist.
Search for the meaning and the pos.
sible value Of what happens instead
of cherishing the faslehood that you
are unjustly treated, and you will
soon find that He knows better than
VOW what is best.
Constant worship is a source OF
happiness. Love this beautiful phys.
ical world, make every tree your
guide, philosopher and friend, for ii
is God in visible form. Do your
work as faithfully as the tree does,
and you will find a oneness with the
eternal and with His Christ. The
meadows and hills, the fields of grain,
the orchards and the streams are
singing songs. Their religion is
cheerfulness, resignation, duty. Join
in the chorus, and you shall have
peace and contentment.

Keep the Heart.

"JoLn," said an artist the other
day to Chinaman who was unwill-
ingly acting as model, "smile. If
you don't look pleasant, I won't pay
you" "No use," grumbled the
washerman. eff Chinaman feelee
ugly all the time, he lookee ugly"
So it is with every one else i'll the
world. If we would have pure
thoughts, clean conversation and
noble deeds coming to view, we must
have good hearts. The outward
reveals the inward. The spring
gushes forth from the hillside, pour
ing out the kind of water in the
secret reservoir hidden in the hill
behind it. We cannot conceal our
real selves. "The idols of our hearts
look through our eyes, appear in our
manners, and betray their worship
ers. No matter how secret or how
sly; no matter if our associations
are in the dark, their images will
appear, sooner or later, in our faces
and conduct" The sinful heart casts
a shadow over the face that no will
of ours can drive away. Evil
thoughts constantly harbored in the
mind trace themselves indelibly
upon the countenance, and are pub
lished to the world. We may make
good appearance for a time, and
hide our true character but in an
upguarded moment the inner life
will reveal itself. The wolf can not
wear the sleeps clothing without
being discovered. We give others
an insight into character when we
least think about it. The counterfeit
may resemble the genuine coin, but
it is always detected. The metal has
a ring that cannot be initiated.
There is no installing the clean,
frank, open heart; it shines in the
countenance, speaks in the words
and lives in the deeds. II we have
real goodness in our hearts, the
world demands no further proof OF
our Christianity. Our every day
lives are our credentials. The living
epistle needs no Interpretation; it is
"known and read of all men,
Selected.

J.D. Carroll, general minagsr of the Alaska Fish & Lumber Company Ot Sha- knn, who Is ln SkaEwav as fireman of the grand iurv. Is nO, Of those who regard che creation Of the Alexander forest reserve as a small mattel, and be ls 10 possession also Of what he regards as proof that Lieut.. Emmcns Is responsible for the creation of the reserve, notwithstanding the dsnlal oi the latter ss given out by the press of Alaska. Ar. Carroll thinks the reserve ordsi Is the hardest blow that has yet struck Alaskan Industries
 He thinks lt will greatly d,lay the de- vslopmsnt Of the district M, Carroll says the company which hs represents has invested s2Oo,ooo 10 the milling and eannsry business at Shikan, which Is within lhs reserve, When that money was Invested the laws provided for the lo- oatlon of timber lands by soldiers script and othsrvlss. Thls Is new shut off from them and they have no means Of getting timber for their mll. Mr. Carroll figures that this ds,raets from his investment and hs hes pct an ever abundanes of confidence Ia being able to secure timber from the Eovsnmen, under any regulations for th; govsmmsnt of the reserve.
 Mr. Carroll also says that the timber that was being stolen from the islands Is lneonsldsrlbls. Re recently crulsed the Islands thoroughly for the purpose Of get ting an accurate idsa of the quantity and location Of timber ln the country that would bs available as a supply to his mlll Hs says he had to look closely Co note any place where timber had been eut' and where such had been done several ysars ago, the timber was already growing at such a rate that ln 2s wears it would be rsady to ,1, again. In fact !, is Mr. Car rolrs belief, that timber should be cut in
