For great among faults is the fault

NaNOleOn and Mothers.

4 charming story is told Of Napoleon
which illustrates we'll his reverence for
mothers, whom he rightly regarded as
the makers Of men," When his army
lay at BouIogne an English sailor who
had been taken prisoner tried to escape
on rude sort Of skiff which be had
contrived with bits of wood and the
bark of trees. Hearing Of the poor fell
lows unsuccessful attempt, Napoleon
had him brought into his presence, and
he then inquired whether the man had
really intended to try to cross the chan
mel In such a frail little boat. The sail
or replied that he had meant to try Ia
order to see his mother, who was old
and infirm. ''Iou shall see her." said
Napoleon, "and take her this money
from me, for she must be good moth
err to have such an af'ectionate son"

MATCHING SHADES.

Not TO Purchase and Use the Goods,
but to Dodge Them.
Before trying to match the sample of
silk the clerk asked:
rs this a piece Of something you
want or something you don't want"
Something l want, of course" r.
piled the customer, with asperity You
don't suppose, do you, that would go
to all this trouble for thing | can't
use?"
Some folk do" said the clerk. "I'vS
met a number Of them. The first wom-
an | ever saw with that kind Of bee in
her bonnet had a square inch of blue
silk that she wanted me to match. The
scrap of silk was so small that it was
hard to make comparisons, but after
hauling down half the blue bolts on the
shelves and running to the door several
times to test the color in broad day
light found the exact shade.
How many yards do you want,
madam? l asked.
oh said the woman, 4 don't want
any. Almost any other piece will do.
That particular shade is very unbecom-
ing. just wanted to make sure that
don't get it, that's all"
The customer laughed. "What did
you say?" she asked.
I'D rather not tell" said the clerk.
Anyhow, since then I have been eau
tious. Before matching a sample now I
Inquire as politely as possible into a
customers intentions. If it's a case of

". T. McAffrey has recently pur-
chased the Newman business bull
ding just east of the building occu-
pied by his saloon. This is corner
location and one that will doubtless
become one of the valuable bust
ness corners of the city. Mr.. Nc
Affrey evidently is not afraid that
prohibition will hurt the value Of
property in Welsh, else he would
not invest in this property in the
face Of an election that is generally
conceded will put the liquor bust
ness out of commission in this par
ish after the fist Of January.
Mr.. Ben Taber, Of Houston, man
ager of the GufTy Oil Company,
was over here Saturday looking af-
ter the work that the company is
having done at the Welsh field. In
addition to the air compressor that
he had taken to the field a short
time ago, he had large air COM
pressor taken out SATURDAY., and
had ordered the brick and other
material necessary for installing the
same. He has also contracted with
Welsh parties for the moving Of five
or six cars more Of material from
the station here to the field. Indi-
cations are that the Guffy company
are in line to do considerable de-
velopment work on their holdings
here.

An Interesting Letter From California

Sunnyvale, Cal, April Is, 1908.
Dear Friends:
| suppose you have about decided
that Mrs. Austin had not only shaken
the dust of Welsh, but all her friends
as we'll. If such is the decision you Will
see how apt we mOrtals are to mis-
Judge our fell0w-men and women.
We left our home town on the 10Th
Of March and up to the 7th of Apri
| we were on the road most of the time,
arriving here little tired, and un-
settled, consequently we proceeded to
| find a house to rent.
We are nicely settled in Il six room
cottage, partly furnished with a
nice large yard, containing cherry,
peaches, apricot and almond trees
surrounding it. We pay SIS per month
with $lO0 water rent, which is con-
sidered very cheap here. AS to living
expenses | do not see very much Diff
| ference here than other places when
one has everything to buy.
This is very beautiful yally, so
many fruit trees and such wonderful
variety OF flowers. A friend, or
cousin rather, brought me all the
flowers she could carry, among them
a dozen Gala lilies, with the stalk
all the way from 81 to 36 inches long.
Her husband c. c. Spalding follow
ing her with one arm full of smilaX
and the other hand full of lemons the
later of which he has several fine
trees in his ward.
As to the weather here, the nights
are quite cool enough SO that one
needs good covering for the bed, a.
bout the same as we do ia Welsh, in
winter, during the day it is comfort
able without fire in the house.
We all Of us like it here very well
although | miss the moss covered
trees OF Louisiana that | loved so
we'll. We saw some snow while in
| Illinois and Iowa, but it had no at
fractions for me. On our way to
Quincy Illinois to yiSis our boy Vine
! (whOm we found we'll and doing well
both himself and family),we were
very agreeablY surprised, as we
stopped at EllsberrY Mo-, to find our
old time editor and friend of Welsh,
Gordan Crank. He is looking we'll and
said he was doing we'll in his news
paper work there.
AS there were good many of orr
friends in and around Welsh that we
did not see before we left. | would
like through the medium of your pa
per to pass my best wishes to and
also thank them one and all, for
their kindness to me while serving
them in the Post Office work.
And now | think l have burdoned
you enough for once, so will say
good bye for the present
IOur friend. Mrs. &. a. Austin.
