kismet.

Kismet is an Arabic word meaning
fate" Or 1T is tated." A belief in
predestination is one CT the funda-
mental principles in the Mohammedan
faith. Not only mans fortune, but
his deeds. and consequently his future
reward or punishment are, according
to this faith, irrevocably, and thus un-
avoidably. pre-ordained-a doctrine
which has contributed largely to the
success of Islam by inspiring its cham
pions with the greatest contempt for
the dangers of warfare. When a Mo
hammedan meets with any disaster or
accepts the situation calmly, merely
saying, "Kismet''-''it is fated."

The HOME PRINTED PAPER.
Its importance to the Community
Cannot be 0VefeStimated.

The local home printed news
paper, if conducted on proper
lines, is the best friend and
most necessary institution local
business men can have. Such
a newspaper is ever ready to
advance home interests, and the
advancement of home interests
is of vital Importance to local
business men.
It is evident, then, that a
home printed newspaper, un.
biased and impartial, is the
friend of the business men of the
town. These are facts that
must be admitted if given a mo-
ment's thought. Business men
may have their personal likes
and dislikes tor the publisher
himself, but the paper should
have their good will and encour-
agement at all times. It is nee.
essary to the success of not on.
ly the paper, but to the town
and business men.
1t should not be necessary for
the publisher to lie awake of
nights to watch business to keep
it from going away from town.
