Piano Opportunity That None Should Miss if Instrument of
Any Kind is Needed and Money Saving ObjectLocated
With Palestine Furniture Store

For the benefit of those who may
not clearly understand just what we
are doing, permit us again to explain:
You know we stated in our first
announcement of this grand opening
sale that we had come here to stay
to build up permanent business, and
be credit to Palestine and her peo-
pie, as we'll as ourselves.
We also stated that for ten days we
would give to the piano buying public
the greatest piano bargains ever
dreamed of, and we have kept our
word, not only in spirit, but to the
letter. The fact that we have sold
one-third of the stock the first few
days of the sale tells it's own story.
Tells you in stronger terms than in
any we might say, how good the bar
gains are.
Everybody that has called at our
store has been surprised and pleased.
Many who called just for curiosity,
with little thought of buying, went
away knowing that they had secured
good piano and had saved snug
sum of money. Why not you save
money on the purchase of piano?
Every bone ought to have a piano.
Every home that has a piano is
brighter and happier A piano brings
refinement, culture, knowledge and
love of music; brings friends, young
and old; inspires the children with a
love of home, and establishes higher
ideals.
We don't expect your trade at this
grand opening sale simply because
we are offering the best standard

THE FRONT PORCH.

Copyright, 1908, by Edwin A. Nye.

During these days the country is
being edited from the front porch.
| In the south the porch Is more or
less of an all year institution. In the
north for seven or eight months in the
year the front porch is like the plat
form of street car-of use only to
get on. But during the good old sum-
/ mer time it justifes its existence north
and south.
The front porch now ceases to be
the mere threshold of the house 1t
becomes sitting room, sewing room.

stone transferred to the open.
Here sits the family and solaces it.
self Inoffensive gossip floats serene
ly-and wisdom also. Here is the
forum. Here many grave problems
are sorted and settled. and laughter
and good cheer have IL place.
If you would study the average
American family in its normal state
observe the family as it sits on the
front porch after supper. amiably criti-
cfsing its neighborS or discussing the
evening paper or family or state at
fairs. laughing at the play Of children
good humored. satisfied with itself
optimistic. hearty, genial
And if you will watch close enough
you will observe the play of sentiment
and the undertone of wise judgment.
1t does not matter how pretentious
or how humble may be the front porch
1t is part and parcel of that home life
on which is builded the real strength
of this nation The front porch is re-
lated to that family life in summer as
Is the Preside in winter.
The porch may proximate the gran
deur of a wide and storied veranda.

only few steps. But
Here foregathers that little republic

REDUCTION IN COTTON
farme?c at Memphis will Adopt Means
 to Maintain lSc Cotton in Future

Memphis, Jan. As a result of the national convention of the Farmers Educational and O. Operative Union, which began in Memphis today, it is likely that great reduction in the cotton acreage and production of the country will be decided on for the coming year, reduction of 20 per cent will proba bly, be agreed upon, although some of the delegates advocate only 10 per cent, while some desire an acreage reduction of 30 per cent. Delegates and visitors are here from every county of every cot ton growing state, making the convention one of the largest of the kind ever held in the South. The sessions will continue three days. President c. $. Barrett of Georgia, is presiding. It is expected that the acreage reduc- tion will enable the union to pre- vent overproduction and main. tain the 5-cent price for cotton. The delegation from Texas, the leading cotton growing state of the union, is instructed to ad vocate p per cent reduction, as majority of the locals in the Lone Star State have agreed up on that demand. Some locals have asked that the land devoted to cotton be cut down as much as 50per cent, but it is not likely that any such radical action will be taken.
 Among other matters which will probably be considered dur ing the convention is the selec- tion of depository for the state and national organizations, It is likely that funds of the nation al organization of the Farmers Union will be deposited in Mem, phis, and officials of several state organizations may also decide to make the banks of this city their Repositories.

Prohihiti0n and the Presidency

Little Rock, January 8.-The movenment which has just been started to give the Democratic presidential candidacy in 1908 to Governor Haskell, of Oklahoma, on prohibition platform, raises up serious menace to William ] Bryan in the Democratic na- tional convention. Under the old conception of things prohibi- ton and Democracy were held to be antipodal, but the recent sweep of the anti-saloon wave through Democratic communi- ties has corrected this notion. Six wealths Maine, Kansas, North Dakota, Georgia, Alabama and Oklahoma have state wide prohibition.

New York, Jan. 7.-Harry K. Thaw's mother will not be the prominent figure at the second trial that she was at the first. She is reported in poor health and 1t is unlikely that she will be seen often in the courtroom, where her son is on trial for his life. Ill health is also given as the reason for the absence of the Countess of Yarmouth, Thaw's sister, although rumors have been circulated to the effect that her noble relatives have demand ed that she stay away from the trial.
 Mrs. Evelyn Thaw will beyond doubt be the star witness at this trial, as at the first. Her evidence will be used to show that Thaw s mind became unsettled from breeding over the story she told him.
