Does the Little Things, Too.

Every progressive citizen realizes
that the Commercial Club Toe much
good in the big deals that it helps
through toward a greater Roswell,
but not many realize that the club
is doing little things as we'll all the
time. The following letter illustrates:
The Roswell Commercial Club,
Gentlemen:
l wish to extend my sincere thanks
for the kindness n courtesy shown
me by the club during my stay in
your city.
The moral and intellectual infius
ence derived from the association,
and the practical knowledge gained
of the beauties of your valley will
be carried away with me and used
among friends for the good of Ros-
well, but above this memory / cher
ish a feeling I will never lose for
the men of the Commercial Club who
made me feel at home while in your
city.
AS far | can learn, the good which
has been done toward strangers by
the club, from the time of its in
ception, is worthy of the moral sup
port of every citizen of Roswell.

BABY ATTACKED BY WHITE RAT.
Infant Was Saved by GRANDMOTHER,
choked h Pet Rodent Until it
Released Its Hold.

tSs4
There was considerable excitement
over in East Roswell just before noon
Friday. A white rat, a pet in the house
hold, attacked the two-month-old baby
girl of Mr.. and Mrs. fran Caskey,
and the child was ave- only by the
strenuous efforts of its grandmother.
Mrs. c.. E. Tucker, at whose home on
East Fourth street the incident trans
pired.
The mother and grandmother left
the baby asleep on the bed in a front
room and went to he back porch.
While away they heard the cries OF
the child and the grandmother went
to investigate. She was Mortified to
see their pet white rat gnawing at
one of the baby's eyes. AS the grand
mother reached the bed the rodent
let go the eye lid and seized the
baby's tongue, which was protruding
from the mouth. The grandmother had
to choke the rat before it let loose
what it considered a dainty morsel.
By the time the rat was driven
away, the child's face was turning
black and was covered with blood.
At that juncture the mother rushed
into the room and her reams were
what caused all the excitement. A
doctor was O in attendance and his
verdict was that there was no dan
ger, barring blood poison. The right
eye lid and upper portion of the right
cheek were lacerated and the tongue
was pierced through. The baby show
ed no i'll effects from he experience
today.

out several effective parting shots One was aim

not mnce matters touching the injustice of the
treatment accorded the Chinese in America So
effective was his argument that right in that hot
bed OF former opposition to the Chinese where
they were subject to abuse not many wears ago
change OF sentiment at once became apparent

which Dr. Smith rendered in his strenuous cam
paign in this country, including 40 addresses
during five and half months. In view of his
versatility and usefulness in so many WAYS, the
American Board has taken the somewhat UMPIRE
cented step of appointing DR.. Smith kind of
mlsslonary-at-large in China. He will not be
attached to any station, but will travel preach and

"PERFECTING HOLINESS"

Holiness is power. 1t utzes ability fertizes
the soul and energzes the whole man If is the
fire and water in the engine bringing out to their
fullest capacity the strength of all the parts of
the machinery, that the greatest amount of
spiritual power may be expended in rolling back
revolted world to God. Holiness is Gods pow
er to man. and mans power with God Thus thew
become co-workers. Every man who dwelleth in
God, and God in him, in an accommodated sense
is Gods man, which makes him positive power
against all evil and for all good-to pluck care
less souls from the incoming flood and storm of
wrath, lifting them TIP into the sweet serenity and
protection of the Rock of Ages. Without holi-
ness, we are weaker than a bruised reed; with it.
we are like an impregnable and well-garrisoned
fort. which will stand unframed the hottest siege:
at the same time, raining like hailstorm red-hot
