mer item of this correspondence
Mayor Roddey's position in regard
TO gambling was stated. He holds
that cotton future dealing as eXem-
plified in the exchanges and bucket
shops Is on a par with crap shooting
and any other form of gambling and
that he cannot consistently fine an
offender in any one of the latter
class when the city council licenses
bucket shops. Among the Offenders
before him at his week end court
was one-Smith, a negro charged
with gambling. In accordance with
his stated feelings in the matter,
Mayor Roddey cited the negro to
appear before the city council at its
regular meeting tonight and, be tried
by that body. He released the negro
on his own recognizance.

Johnston Mowers

Now, that the back of the wet spell
has been broken, and the grass and
cane have grown tall and luxuriant,
good farmers will want to do some
quick work in getting in their hay.
For good work good tools are neces-
sary If you would have the very
best machinery to cut your hay and
grass you should by all means buy a
JOHNSTON MOWER, and do your
raking with a JOHNSTON RAKE.
These implements are built upon the
most scientific lines after years and
years of experimenting. All the best
features of other machines have been
maintained in the Johnston and the
worthless features eliminated. The
JOHNSTON MOWER Is the Mower
that will give you the most thorough
satisfaction I'm the field.

best OF all Turn Plows--the LYNCH

From the Fact

That no company in the United
States Of established and recognized
standing writes as liberal policy con-
tract or guarantees as much to the
policy holder as does the Mutual Ben
eft Life Insurance Company of New
ark it is the only company doing bus
mess in this section today that pays
all it's policy holders annual dividends.
If you are a wise man you will use
the same kind Of discrimination in
buying life insurance you would in
buying any other valuable piece Of
property, and buy from company and
not from an agent as II Is the former
and not the latter with whom the con-
tract is really made. 1t Is a duty you
owe yourself to thoroughly understand
the difference, as well as the standing
of the company and character of the
contract.

Testimonials?

The man who uses DEVOE Paints
when he paints his buildings, can
write a testimonial very much like
the. tramp who wrote a soap testimo-
nial. The tramp wrote: "I used your
Pink soap ten years ago and haven't
used any other since" The tramp's
picture looked the part. The man
who writes a Devoe Paint testimo-
NAL can write: "I used your Devoe
Paint ten years ago and have never
used any other since-hasn't been
necessary" And his buildings Will
bear testimony that they haven't been
in need of any other paint.
If you are thinking Of Painting any
buildings. give them a square deal
use DEVOE PAINT-the sterling
silver Of the paint world. 1t lasts
Ionger-goes further-costs less.
Don't forget us when you need any
Repairing or Odd Jobs in the carpen-
ter's line.

more by winter growing crops
than would farms further north.

there are no long freezes to keep
the soil from washing away

SUPERB WINTER NODES.

In the spacious saIesrooms Of Abraham &

winter styles have ample opportunity for display.
There are two departments where women's
gowns are 10 be seen to great advantage-the
ready wear department. on the second floor,
where anything from neglge to an evening
gown stands ready to put on. and the elegant
and luxurious dressInaking salon. on the fifth
floor where imported models OF famous makers
stand ready TO be duplicated or modified by the
hands of skilled artists IN the employ Of Abra-
ham & Straus. This is the most interesting
feature Of the establishment for to and ex
anime a Paquin. Callot or TenpIer model. and
if the colors do not suit ones complexion. to be
able TO order it duplicated in different shades.
must be appreciated by every woman. This
dressmaking salon, done in cream and ivory. Is
q place Of beauty and repose. and perfectly
adapted TO the study OF colors and effects. A
little sanctuary Of imported gowns contains
many beautiful models.
A Templier reception gown in three pieces was
Of gray marquisette, embroidered in the same
shade of chenille with a touch of gold TO illu-
inmate and relieve the color scheme. The wrap
accompanying this costume was OF gray chiffon
velvet with q chinctilla collar. The same elabo-
rate chenille embroidery which ornamented the
skirt and bodice carried the wrap so
Iavishly that the garment might almost be said
