DON'T GIVE A MORTGAGE

Don't give a mortgage. Do not go into debt. Make sacrifieces this year, says National Co-Operator, that you may be free and independent the bal ance of your life. You do not know how easy it is to make sacrifices until you try. And right here listen to a little story: A good farmer man and his good wife live in Harrison Coun- ty, Texas, not far from Hallville. It was in the younger days of their mar ried life, although three boys and per haps a daughter, were growing up about them and would eat. Every year their little cotton crop had to go to their merchant for the supplies they had bought during the year, and not a cent did they have left over. After four or five years of this pro- cedure, the wife said, when they be- gan to pitch their little crop, Not a dollars worth of anything is bought on a credit this year. All we eat we'll raise hereafter, except those things we can not raise." The husband looked askance at her, but he knew when the little woman put her foot down, things had to be that way. When the coffee and the sugar gave out, she sent some eggs and chickens and butter to town, and, selling them, ex- pended the money for these things. Not a cents worth of anything was bought on credit that year, and never has since. They sell their cotton to whom they please, raise everything possible at home, have raised their three boys and their two girls, giving them good educations, and there are not three better young men in Texas, nor sweeter, better women than the two daughters, both married. Now, what that couple did, or rather that good little wife, every couple can do, if they will try, and it is so easy to do when you once commence.-Na- tional Co-Operator.

State Capital Notes
Deficit in the Penitentiary Fund.

The long expected deficit in the pen itentiary fund is now at hand. When
 the state offices closed Wednesday
 night there was just $4.90 in the fund
 in actual money and about $1S,OOO in
 bills to be paid out of the fund. There is no lamp to rub and the day of fishes and bread miracle is past, so the Penl- tentiary Board is now facing a serious situation. There are still about $2,00O
 in bills from last month to be paid
 out of the fund. Besides that amount there are all of the salaries of em- ployes to pay and all of the bills for this month. The bills for this month. together with the salaries, will amount to about 6,000 That amount, added
 to the $2000 carried over from last month, will make a total of about SlS,- 900 owned by the board which must be paid out of a fund whose vaults
 at present possess the magnificent sum of $4.90-not enough to purchase chewing tobacco for the inmates Of one state institution for one day. To all appearances there will be no re- llGl TOT Jue SIJudJlOn uHtll Jllc SIdIO farm cotton is sold. The cotton seed
 money, amounting to about $4,- 900, may be paid in at any time, but
 it will be little more than a drop in
 the bucket compared with the amount of indebtedness. The question now
 confronting the board is. When will
 the cotton be sold? It is understood that there has been an offer made
 for the cotton at 15 cents, the price 1 for which the board has decided to l hold out, but the cotton is still on the
 market. There seems to be but small probability that it will be sold until
 after the ninth of this mOnh, when the ginners' report will be turned in. Until
 then the committee Of board members appointed to push the sale of the cot ton will make no strenuous efforts to
 dispose of it, as they believe that the
 cotton market will be more settled
 after the report is turned in. In the
 meantime the creditors will wait.

4 NEW EXHIBITOR
At THE ART LEAGUE

A newcomer is Miss Minnie E. Chip
man, who has been engaged as in
structor in art at the College of
Hawaii. Miss Chapman has had the
exceptional advantage of taking her
early training under such recognized
artists as John H. Twachtman, Charles
Hawthorne and Mrs. Rhoda Holmes
Nichols of New York, and her work
shows both versatility and breadth of
handling. The range of subjects is
wide-from fruit and flower compost
lions executed in low key as interior
studio work, to charming .out-of- door
sketches keyed high and full of sun
shine. Many of the pictures have his
toric as well as artistic value. Rugged
Cape Blomidon and the Basin of
Minas, immortalized by Longfellow; an
old Acadian Homestead; scenes from
Chautauqua, and from old Princeton. the
home of the Cape Cod fsherfolk, are
among the pictures listed A small
colored charcoal sketch of Ipswich.
Mass, once famous for its witchcraft,
but now noted for its colony of artists,
is especially interesting.
The first view will be on Monday
evening, November 80.
