 The pastor and ladies of the Metho- dist church in this city are making extensive arrangements to entertain from forty to sixty prominent ladies of this district on June 10, II. P and 13, next, the occasion being the Twenty Second annual session of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Conference which will convene here on those dates. We do not feel that it is necessary to ask that every citizen consider him or her self committee of one to see that these ladies are pleasantly entertained, because the hospitality of Forrest CityS citizens is always sweet and genial. But we wish to remind them of the visit of these splendid women. and ask each one to make a special effort in their behalf, so that they shall ever afterwards speak enthusias- tic words of praise for this city. The Times also hopes that each and every one of the visiting ladies will call and see our new presses, folding machine. etc, and that they will not hesitate to command us if we can serve them in any way.

 An exchange says merchants should not overlook the fact that it is th-ir home papers that stand up for thrm and their town. When d member of their family is the victim of disease and death, 1t is thelr home paper that ex tends condolence; when daughter or son gets married, It is tue home raper that gives extended notice and the first to offer congrai ulatiOn; it is the home paper that fights your battles and stands up for you and your town when other and rival places are trying to cut into your trade. or take away in dustries. The editor, printer, devil. office cat and all connected with your home paper have to eat and they buy their supplies from you. Do you ap- preciate their trade. or would you like to see thelr trade go to some rival town and thus help build up some fellow who, some day. might become strong competitor of yours? We merely speak of these things because they are patent thoughts of ours and might cause you 10 give d little more patronage to Us instead of sending 1t to some town or city concern, away from home, which has no other interest ln you further than to get your money. Think 1t over and then rush in with a page ad or nice big order for job work.
