formerly Of the Model Pantorium.
Mr.. Pingree is sparing no effort to
make his establishment thoroly up

plate glass window will be put in

waited and partitioned off into vari-
Gus apartments, and the whole will
be lighted at night by the best and
strongest electric lights that can be
secured. On each side of the en-.
trance there will be an old-fash-
Toned Mission style lantern, set
with green lights, and an attractive
sign, also in green, will be placed

all be in Mission style, with green
upholstering. There will also be a
fine brass-covered shoe shining

cleaning. and will soon install mod
ern machinery with which to take
care of this part of the work. Mr..
Pingree will be assisted by Tom
Howard. the Valet company will

The sermon that hurts is the

Heaven is gained BY effort, not
alone by results
Gheerupathy is one of the best

create such big worry.
The world never offers to pay
man what it owes him.
Failure is often the result of
effort; victory always is.
The public is quick to detect
shame, but quicker to forget it.
For every tongue or gossip
there must be at least two ears.
a little sympathy at home
lightens many load down town.
The picture on the box is no
sign of the quality of the cigar.
The wise man profits by his
mistakes; the fool forgets them.
Debts are about the only things
that grow bigger BY contraction.
Men who always vote
straight are responsible for
lot of crooked politics.
A lot of characters have been
ruined by being hung over a back
yard fence.
It is always darkest just before
dawn, but it is often tedious
waiting for the light.

Byrd Endorses McLain.

Washington, D. G.. May "A,
1908.
Mr.. D. Nj. Huff, Magnolia, Miss.
My Dear Sir: / have your
esteemedfavor of May 4. You re-
quest me to answer the following
inquiries:
If you can consistently do SO,
| would be glad to have you write
me what you think of Hon. r. A.
McLain as congressman, and
give me an idea of his success or
failure as the Representative Of
this district, =
In reply, it affords me very
great pleasure to say that Mr..
McLain is one of the most able
and conscientious members of
congress it has been my good for
tune to know during my congress
sional service. He is a tireless
worker, is always at his posi- of
duty, and so far as / have been
able to observe, he never loses an.
opportunity to advance the inter
ests of his district and the whole
State of Mississippi. His great
influence has won for him a place
on the very important committee
of Public Buildings and Grounds,
and it was his good work that Sc
cured favorable reports on public
buildings bills for Mississippi,
amounting to nearly half million
dollars. The bill containing this
appropriation, will, am sure,
become law in the next few
days.
Is In conclusion, want to say
that it affords me genuine pleasure
to be able to testify to the spIen-
did record congressman McLain
has made since my service in con-
gress. He is sterling Democrat,
true Mississippian, ard one of
the most energetic men with
whom [ have the honor to serve.
He is on good terms with all his
colleagues from Mississippi, and
at all times works in harmony
with them for every interest
affecting the great commonwealth
from which be halls.

Tried and Found True.

As was seen, by his letter in
last weeks Enterprise, that ad-
mirsbfe gentleman and faithful
Representative Hon. f. McLain,
is candidate for reelection to
Congress. For the past ten years
he has worked hard, faithful for
his country. He has not spent as
much Of bis time on the floor of
the House, speaking, as some
Others, but he has worked as hard
as any man all the time, especially
in the committee rooms, and
everybody who knows anything
about making laws knows that
in committee rooms is where the
most good work is done.
He is sincere and determined
IN his efforts. He is not man
to wait for orders when be sees
his people need things, nor is be
deferred BY popular outcry when
his conscience impels him to ac-
ti0n. He embodies as many ideal
traits of character as does any
other man in public life today.
Dozens and scores of reasons, and
good ones too, could be given why
he has made an ideal Congressman
and why he would be of more and
better service in the next Con
gress than ever before. The
chan ces are good for the next
House to be Democratic, an ''ex-
perienced Waterman will be
very much needed. Frank Nc
Lain is no visionary lawmaker as
has been well seen, but the prin-
ciples he has stood and fought for
have always proven that he is a
good man IN the right place. He
is an accomplished of good and an
honest man. His thousands Of
friends will be happy to learn
that lie is willing TO serve again.
