FRIENDLY FEELING.

Many people have friendly feeling
toward their home paper, but merely
manifest spirit of indifference toward
it. 1t would be such an easy matter
when friend visits you to call up the
newspaper Office and tell about it. This
would also tend to make the stay of
your friond more pleasant, for there is
not person living that does not like to
be regarded with sufficient Importance
to be mentioned occasionally in the
local paper. II you want to win the
everlasting gratitude of the entire edi-
torial force use the telephone freely in
furnishing items. You need not fear
OF being suspected of desiring to get
your own name in the paper. You will
merely be regarded as one of the good
friends of the paper, and if you keep
up your truthfulness you will be able
70 get most any kind Of favor it can
render you. Think of the local news
paper as your paper, treat it and its
editorial force as your friends and YOU
will be able to assist largely in its
work for the good of your community

PAY YOUR DEBTS.

The man who is endeavoring to pay
his debts and cannot is to be pitied and
should be extended every help and
courtesy possible. 1t isn't every man
who can meet his obligations promptly
and due allowance should be made for
this. Very few men really desire to
unduly push the payments of debts and
it is not good business to do it. But
the man who contracts debts without
the intention of paying them, or who
gets behind and then makes no effort
to settle up the old scores, should be
treated with contempt by all honest
people and made to feel that he is about
as low down as men grow. Debt is not
disgraceful in itself, but to persistently
fail and TO refuse to pay debt is a
disgrace. The sooner the people come
to regard it in this light the better it
will be for them. A man is of very
small caliber who will allow some other
man to feed and clothe and otherwise
care for his wife and children without
making an effort to pay for it, yet all
OF US know many men who habitually
do this. The man who will do it would
steal but for the fear of the laws pun
ishment.-Ex Exchange.

WHAT LAGRANGE rs DOING.

A short while ago $50, 900 was raised
in LaGrange for bank. Week before
last $3.50, 900 was raised for fertilizer
factory. Last week $500 was raised
for fifth cotton mill. Some small part
of this money came from outside
sources, but the great bulk OF it is home
capital. These facts speak louder than
a trumpet blast of the great advance
ment which is going on in this city

can be no doubt Dr. Watson ran
upon the platform OF declaration 10

A word of personal history con
corning the new enator may not be

Watson studied medicine, graduating
from one of the best Louisville
medical colleges. Returning 10 his
native county he pfactisad several
years near his home and then came
to Louisa where his skill in his pro-
fession and his genial manner Won
for him an enyiabie popularity, But
for a man of DR.. Watson's energy
and enterprise there was. in this
new Big Sandy Of ours something
more inviting than pellets and potions
and of late years he has paid more
attention to the development Of
this part of his Stateand as was said
at the beginning of this article he
believed that he could materially as

Paynter. unlike Senator Blackburn
lives in this Congressional district
not far from the Sandy itself, and
