W. n. Hardy:
"The canvass Of Captain w. Fl. Har-
dy Is being watched with much interest
by his old friends and admirers in this
section of the state. The sixth district
cannot honor itself more highly than by
making this gallant standard bearer of
democracy of the east her representative
in congress. His transcendent ability
places him far in the van of his adYer-
saries and marks him rs one of the great
Mississippi leaders so much need at
Washington at the present time. We
speak of this matter, not as voter of
the district in which he is now engaged,
advocating his deserv wing claims to q
seat In congress, but as Mississippian
proud of her past record in the national
house of representatives and anxious to
see it perpetuated in the person of this
most distinguished citizen of east Mis-
sissippi We hope to see him nomi
nated.'

The cost Of pro-
ducing a pound of
oleomargarine is
from II to 13 cents.
POOR MANS
BUTTER.

Add to this the tax of 10 cents and
the colored product will cost at the
factory, from 81 to % cents, and after
passing through various hands, will
be sold over the retailers counter at
a price considerably beyond the means
of the average laborer.
Producers of high grade butter-in
other words, dairymen, who do an
honest business-need have no fear
that butterine will ever compete with
their product; in fact it enhances the
value of the pure product because a
generous amount of the very best but
ter is used in the manufacture Of
oleo. The competition is betw cen the
product of the butterine makers art
and the rancid, offensive, germ m-breed-
ing process butter, which not long
since was the only fat which graced,
Or disgraced the poor mans board.
The laws of health and the laws of
common sense unite in recommending
the substitute as the superior article
in flavor, nutritive qualities and hy-
gienic composition.

Chihuahua, Mexico.

Americans visiting this enterprising
Mexican city, the capital of the state
of chihuahua, are surprised at it's
activity. On every hand is seen evil
dence of growth and development-new
factories, new houses, and new mines of
fabulous wealth coupled with a sur
rounding country which is equal, if not
superior to, any other in the world for
cattle raising, is sure to make Chihuahua
one of the most important cities of
Mexico. The many indications Of wealth
all go to show the prosperous condition
of the better class of residents, although
there seems to be little but adversely for

they seem happy and contented. The

NOTES FROM MEXICO.
Mexican Mines.

There is now, and, there prom
ises to be, great development
in mines in Mexico. American capital,
intelligence, and industry threaten to
establish mining boom in that republic
that will startle the world. A very
prominent mining engineer = one who
has frequently represented the Roths-
childs - recently made the statement
that in his opinion Mexico would make
the mineral wealth of South Africa
look very small within the next few
years. It is the opinion of the Conser-
vative that there is to be a great pro-
duction of gold in Mexico and
with it may come gold standard,
although the miners manufacturers and
others who employ labor prefer the
silver basis for reasons which are patent.

Aguas Calientes.

Pronounced Ah-was Calients, is pro-
gressive town in Central Mexico, and
is noted for it's hot baths. The Mexican
Central railroad has selected this point
as the location for their principal shops,
and quite boom is anticipated on this
account. 1t is at this place that most OF
the fine Mexican drawn work is made,
some of which is exquisite in design
and marvellous in workmanship.
Aguas Calientes possesses one OF the
largest smelters in the world, owned
and operated by the Guggerheims, who
now control the American Smelling and
Refining Company.

dairyman stepped on his own halter

action SO far, taken as a whole, is
probably more of hindrance than a

POLLY MAKING TOAST.


When wintry winds pipe loudest tones
And round the chimney cry,
And twilight brings me tender thoughts
OF all the years gone by,
Among the pictures of the past
That come in thronging host
The fairest mirrored in the fire
Is Polly making toast.
My Polly! Bless her! There she kneels
Before the andirons tall,
Whose shining gold reflects the sparks
Of embers as they fall.
The children have put apples down
Upon the hearth to roast
And Polly turns them when she stoops
To brown the fragrant toast.
One hand is held to shield her cheek,
So near the backlog heat,
And ones outstretched before the Goals;
Her watchful eyes are sweet.
Outside the boys adown the hill
Are shouting as they coast;
The pussy purrs, the kettle sings,
While Polly makes the toast.
JuSt Dy tnaG nearGnSlQe WarIntl anu HSut
Lies all the dearest part
OF strength and love and joy of life.
My lonely, eager heart
The quaint old farmhouse kitchen seeks,
That picture charms me most.
Where Polly by the chimney fire
Beside me makes the toast.
Now blessings on the wintry winds
That hush their voices strong
To sing sometimes Of memories
Or chant true loves song.
And blessings on remembered scenes
That pass in countless host!
Best blessings on the one that shows
My Polly making toast!
