The prospects for strawberries in this locality are better than was anticipated few weeks ago. Graham Bros., who have seventy five acres southeast of town, say they have better prospects than for four years past and are ad- vertising for 300 pickers. Some of the berry patches north and northeast of town were injured by the hail last week, the berries on the Dr. Stern's place being al- most completely destroyed. Some ripe berries are reported, but shipments will hardly begin before May 5 or 6. This will be considerably later than last year, but that was an unusual season.
 The first car was shipped April 26 and the shipping season con- tinued for thirty five days.
 The first strawberries of the season were on the market yes- terday, having been shipped in from Van Buren. They re- tailed at 20 cents per quart. Twenty crates of berries were shipped from Van Buren on Fri day of last wesk, most of them selling at S3.50.-Springdale News.

A PRACTICAL woman remarked the other day that the most in- teresting thing in the newspapers to her are the advertising columns. Hong ago. she says, 'I quit buying of those who do not ad- vertise. It always seems to me that the merchants who adver- tises invites me to trade with him, while one who does not advertise impresses me with the idea that he dosen't care for it. Then, too, I notice that the merchant who advertises has fresher goods, for the reason, l suppose, he sells more."

Punctua1ity is a Winner.

"What rule do you observe in pro- noting your men?" was asked the senior partner of firm that employed large force of men.
 "Length of service, if all other things are equal" he replied, but there are three things always examine into before promote man. The first of these is punctuality, whether man is on time in the morning and in returning from lunch. If a man is habitually late in coming to work, he is not to be de- pended upon; he does not possess the proper principle. He has made con- tract with me and he constantly breaks it. Therefore don't consider such a man when I am about to make a pro- motion.
 "Then I consider the way man at tends to his business during office hours. If he spends much of his time in chatting and joking with fellow clerks or receives many visits from his friends during the day and thus consumes much of the time that should be devoted to performing his duties, scratch him off the list when the time comes to ad- vance, and give the place to man who attends strictly to business during business hours.
 "In the third place, I promote the man who conducts himself properly when he is away from the office. Some persons think an employer has nothing to do with what his men may do after they leave their place of business, but don't agree with such opinions. If a man keeps late hours constantly and indulges in bad habits, he is unfitted physically and mentally, to perform his work during the day in manner that will be entirely satisfactory. How do find out what the habits of my men are? Simply by watching them when they come to work. The man who has been out late and has indulged in bad habits will show it plainly by the dull drowsy look in his eyes, the flush on his face, and the dragging slowness of his movements, while the man who has been regular in his habits will be bright and on the alert. The latter is the one who is considered when a vacancy occurs.
 "As said before, the man who is on time; whois attentive to business, and who is fit to attend to business is the one promote, whether he has been in the service six months or six years"

Russell was called for and in an impromptu speech he told of the trials and tribulations through which he has been carried in an effort to deprive him of the office after his election was conceded by every homes t man in the county. He spoke feelingly of the valuable services rendered him by honest Demo- crats, who put politics aside and helped him so gallantly in fight ing for his rights. Although the expense the long drawn .out con- test had made the office an un- profitable one, to say nothing of the worry, he is proud of the victory won for honest election methods. He thanked the con- vention for it's expression of con- fidence in him in giving him the nomination and promised to make an honorable effort to succeed himself in the position.
