The Semi-weekly leader. (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1905-1941, 1906-05-19

Our esteemed neighbor up at
Wesson prints Bamber's sermon
and couple of whisky ads side
by side. Perhaps the one is ex-
pected to counteract the effects of
the other. South Mississippian.
We suppose SO, on the principle
of the fellow who always prayed
GOOD Lord, Good Devil'' in the
same breath, because he said he
didn't know into whose hands he
was going to fall when he died.
None of Brookhaven's three pa
pers carry whisky advertisements
in their columns-s something of
which their publishers and patrons
may we'll feel proud.

A certain party sends the News
an obituary notice about yard
long and says if there are any
charges please send the bill. No,
there is no charge; we are down
here on the coast for our. health
and have made an arrangement
with printers to get out the paper
free of charge. We have also
effected an arrangement with the
stationery men to get all the need
ed stationery in the office free
without having to pay one cent.
But since we have examined our
books and find out that you have
never spent one cent with the
Office, even having the letter head
on which you write printed out
side the city we would see you in
the bottom of Mt. Vesuvius when
in eruption before we would print
your stud free or at any price.
Do like you did your job work
send it to some other town and
have it done. -Guifport News.

Indian B~ankrupts.

They had a peculiar way Of going
into bankruptcy among the Marawa-
bis in India, now ~unhappily giving
way to the less picturesque method
of the white man. When a man could
not pay his bills he would summon
his creditors. They were ushered in
to a room in which the Thakur
or household god was enshrined, but
covered up with a cloth and with
the face turned to the wall, in order
that it might not witness the scene
that was to follow. The insolvent
would then, in garb of mourning, lie
on the floor, presenting his back to
his creditors, who, OF a given signal,
would fall upon him with shoes and
slippers and belabor him until their
wrath was exhausted. The beating
finished, honor was declared to be
satisfied all around.-New York
Press.

The Small Boys Errand.

Why has not some one thought to
dub the Small Boy "Errand-goer to the
Family?" The name would beautiful
ly fit him. What would happen if ON
a to~psyturvy day sometime the fam
lily should take to running the Small
Boys errands? "Turnabout is fair
play" And I think myself it would
be a good way to bring the family to
it's senses.

made the journey in three White

K. Miller and o. H. Lufkin. The
party started from Worcester and
went to Springfield, rode ove Mount
Tom and went through Chicopee,
Northampton and other intervening
towns to Greenfield, where they
spent the night. The next day they
rode through Turner's Falls, Orange,
Gardr r, Westminster to Fitchburg,
where they stopped for luncheon.
They then drove to Boston through

"One Of the most remarkable men
that ever lived in Columbia" said
Col. ]. s.. Dorsey, the. other day. was
Sam Young who was a lawyer here
for twelve or fifteen years before the
war. He was not only a good lawyer,
but one Of the best actors / ever saw
on the stage. He was a fine shoe
maker, the best cigarmaker I ever,
saw and could play a violin as well
as the old masters. He could make
the most effective temperance speech
and then a few hours afterward could
be drunken than any other man in
Columbia. He made an ideal prayer
meeting leader and could beat any
one else In a poker game. He was
the most accomplished man I ever
saw."-Kansas City Star.

the Government has adopted for the
rural free delivery service. Local
authorities must keep the ways in
passable condition if they are to BEN

The Evils Of CONSTIPATION

are many; in fact, almost every serious

stipation, add to it. This is true of most

beneficial effect, but the dose has 10 be

remedy ceases TO have the slightest effect.

Publication of Music in America,

"@SS W tItS IS@s
Philadelphia prints more than one
quarter Of all the music published
in the United Etates. and the total
amount OF it Is six times as great
IS it was fifteen years ago. But
while Europe shows no such increase
as that, this country's total output is
still less than that of several other
European cities. In this city
the amount of instrumental mu-
sic printed used to exceed that Of
vocal music. This was due, it is
said, to the cheapening of pianos in
recent years n the popularity OF
banjo and guitar music. Now, how
ever, the banjo at least has lost some
bf it popularity and the gain in vocal
music-until 1t is about equal to the
instrumental in quantity-is attribut-
ed to the current prevalence of must
cal comedies. In vocal music the
comic and the sentimental keep about
even. The gain in religious music has
not been so great as hat in other
lines-Philadelphia Record.
