JUST A SMILE

You can drive the clouds away
With a smile,
Just smile
Turn the darkness into day
With a smile,
Just smile
Oh, there's nothing when a man
Feels the weight of sorrows yoke
In this whole wide world that can
All distress and grief revoke,
AS smile,
Just a smile.
How the way is Frightened up
BY smile,
Just smile
Sweetened is the bitter cup
BY a smile,
Just a smile
Oh, the world may frown at you,
And your spirits try to blight,
But the skies are ever blue,
If you always have in sight
Just smile,
Merry smile.
It's simple little thing,
Is a smile,
Just smile
But twill JOY and gladness bring,
VIII smile,
Just smile
Many hearts will dry their tears
And go singing on their way,
And they'll put away their fears,
Thinking of the glad today,
BY your smile,
Gladstone smile.
How the heavy burdens fail,
By smile,
Just smile;
Hope again beams over all,
BY smile,
Just smile
Lonely lives are cheered each day,
Duties lightened, hearts made glad
Heavens beauty fills the way,
If to kindly words you'll add
Just a smile,
Happy smile

second Sherlock Holmes.
it sill be remembered that on
certain night three months ago, and
during the progress of strike at the
Austen Mines, at Austen. a small
station on the b. & O. in this coun
~, dynamite was exploded under
the house of Supt. Hochlcr. and
while no one was killed many mem
bers of The family had narrow, es
capes, as they were sleeping in that
section of the house which was de-
stroyed.
The affair was Of such serious ma.
ture that the company took elaborate
steps TO nail the dynamiiers, and
special officers and detectives were
sent into the region, where they
worked for a month or so without
result. Then the company, through
its counsel, Attorney Pat Crogan, of
Kingwood, offered thousand dol
lars reward for the apprehension of
the criminals. This was what caught
Messengers eye.
Talking one night TO his friend,
DR.. Bone, of Tunnelton, Messenger
said that he believed he could cap
out the men. He wondered if he
did so would he get ;he reward.
DIR. Bone assured him that the
money was offered in good faith and
that it would be paid just as soon
as information against the guilty
parties was lodged with Mr.. Crogan.
Then Messenger outlined his plan.
He said that as he had been noted
for his drunkenness all over the
Preston county coal region, he
would find plenty of people ready TO
drink with him when he returned
there. His plan was to get every
man who would drink intoxicated
and get him to talk if possible. In
that manner he felt sure he could
find the guilty parties.
Going to Austen he started in,
and for three weeks he laid around
the town and saloons drinking and
drunk, and that time il was noticed
that he was drinking with new PEG
pie every day.
One day he suddenly sobered up
and was seen to start for Kingwood.
His work was done. The next day
an officer placed under arrest Boil.
yer aud Kent, and they were
brought here to Jail.
Messengers plan worked Just as
he said 1t would. He got one Of
the men drunk and he bowed on
the other, and told also Of woman
who knew all about the affair. She
was not arrested, but will likely be
prominent figure at the trial.
