FORT SEVERN.

The following lines in commemOration
Of old Fort Severn. Annapolis. Nd. were
written by the granddaughter Of the late
Col jon Evers6eld. [. s \. who, when
a young officer. was in command Of the

YACHTING CATIONS.

Be careful
Visitors often err.
They do terrible things
And all IN perfect innocence
They even enter at the yachts back
door
They wear shoes which play havoc with
the beautiful deck
They do not always know just where
The difference due" is due
In fact. the invited one who is q stranger
% q yachts ways cannot DO better than
buy printed Instructions and carefully
study them.

YACHTING LUNCHEoNs.
Aren't they fascinating?

Aren't they fasci-atiag2
How very good they taste,
The same food is tame on shore
Tea Is another JOY aboard a fine yacht
Though you may make IT lemonade. or
something else
Sardines. with plenty OF lemon, are al
ways liked
Club sandwiches are desirable 10 serve
on small boats
Boned birds and salads are among the
time-hOnored refreshments
Fresh fruits and fruits in various jeIIied
mixtures are bound 10 be delicious

nancial stringency, will not catch
many suckers. Mr.. Price is prob
ably short on December contracts,
which he sold ahead at too low a
figure, and unless he can inveigle
the erstwhile gullible farmers in
to coming to his aid through pre-
tense of helping the farmer, he
will doubtless have to make good.
But we are inclined to believe the
farmers of the South will leave
friend Price to extricate himself
from the hole into which he has
put his foot.-Russellvile Courier

bare unbrightened Christmas of
Puritanism, are making this holi-
day our greatest one. Of COM
paratively recent date is this
change, of decidedly recent date,
the general custom in America of
the lavish use of special decora-
lions in honor of Christmas. The
south has long followed the Gus
toms of Merrie England in the
matter of bringing in from wood
and field the beautiful Christmas
green's with which to give home
and church festival air; but from
the pine lands of Maine to the
mist]etoe haunts of California.

FROr1 THE PINE BLUFF
DAILY COMMERCIAL.

For sometime past the Com
mercial has been asked by many
persons to give its choice, if it had
any, for chief executive of the
state.
From the start, insofar as the
four pronounced candidates were
concerned, this paper was and is to-
day in favor of George W. Dona-
ghey above either of the candi-
dates now in the race. And in
this connection it must be under
stood that it is not the desire of
this paper to be the least vituper-
ative, nor will it be drawn into an
ungainly and undignifed dispute
touching the question at issue, if
possible to avoid it.
We do not pretend to say that
he is an orator, to the contrary,
he is not. But we will say, and
say it knowingly, that in any mat
ter in which he becomes interest
ed he is a practical talker; a man
of fine sense who possesses not
only logical but an analytical
mind and Mr.. Donaghy has suf-
ficient education to write and say
just the proper thing at the auspic-
iOus moment, not in beautiful
word painting, but in good Eng
fish language; and he also poss-
esses fine executive ability. This
is clearly shown when it is known
that he grew to manhood, learned
the carpenters trade and later be-
came a contractor and builder.

different parts of Arkansas and
Texas at the same time and fire.
quently having more than thous-
and workmen to look to and man.
age at different times while educat-
ing himself at the same time.
So well has he succeeded in his
own administrative affairs that
The Commercial believes that he
is fully competent to attend to all
the executive duties pertaining to
the Governors Office of grand old
Arkansas. And if we did not so
believe The Commercial would not
lend its support to him, which it
does most earnestly, so earnestly
that it will have more to say of
him from time to time, as occasion
seems necessary and time and
other topics will permit.

An aggressive business policy
on the part of our business men,
reaching out for everything with
in reach, encouraging all would-be
corners, expanding money when
a two-fold return is reasonably
certain, it would seem is one of
the ways to best build up a city.
A town is what it's people make it..
1t may slowly grow by the little
accretions that accidentally fall
within it's influence, Or it can be
pushed into vigorous and rapid
growth by the aggressive activity
of it's business element The
United States, although the young
est among nations, manufactures
more goods, sells more produce,
employs more labor, pays more
wages, gives more comforts to its
people, has more happy and pros
porous homes than any nation on
earth.

The man who wrestles with the

The man who wrestles with the
COW and learns the calves to suck,
who casts the corn before the
swine, is now in greatest luck
for buffers on the upper grade,
veal's higher than a kite, pork is
climbing up the scale and beef is
out of sight; eggs he gathers every
day from his Poland chicken coop
are almost worth their weight in
gold and we are in the soup. His
corn brings him a fancy price, its
rising every day, and he rakes in
all kinds of mon for half load of
hay. The farmer is in the saddle
and when he comes to town the
rest of us by right should go way
back and sit down.

Here is something that is worth
many dollars to every farmer to
know: Sprinkle lime in your
stock tank and not q particle of
scum will form on the water.

scum will begin to form, which
may be twice during the season,
wash out the tank and repeat the
dose. 1t is cheap, not only harm
less but wholesome, keeps the
water sweet and saves the live
stock.
