Humor ano Philosophy
By DUNCAN n. SMITH
KEEP 1T UP.

Look pleasant when the picture gun
Is pointed at your face
And when the kind photographer
Has everything in place.
And should you want to keep it up
1t would not be a crime
To can your frowning features and
Look pleasant ali the time.
Why should you all the .iveIong day
Appear as one who had
A crouch against your fellow men
Or something quite as bad
And when you tell the picture man
To make your photograph
Try TO look pleasant for about
A minute and a half?
IT'S not so hard to keep it up
AS you perhaps might fear
A little practice and your frown
Will straightway disappear.
And il IN place OF it a wreath
OF playful smiles is found
That's where you'll. fool the snapshot
man &
Should he be shopping round
So do not wait till you are dragged
Into the picture place
And sit before the camera
To soften down your face.
Look pleasant when you're feeling fine
And when the skies are blue,
And then perhaps a pretty girl
Will make Sleeps eyes at you.

The lakes lie soft between.
On this side mods the daisy
And bravely waves the green.

And through the evening shade
The sunbeams now are slanting;
The days long debt is paid.
All, dear is the lakes soft sounding
And sweet is the voice of love.
But the worlds loud Changers pound

Around, about, above.
And / loose the arms soft claSpiag,
And l kiss the lips that cling.
Unloose me from their hasping

HON. c. c. REID FOR CONGRESS

In this issue The Log Cabin Democrat has the honor of present ing the name of Hon. Charles C.. Reid of Morrilton as a candidate for Congressman from the fifth dis triCt of Arkansas of which Faulk ner county is a part.
 So faithfully aud so admirably has Mir. Reid performed the duties Of this office that no opposition has ever been offered him since he was first elected, some ten years ago. Big hearted, big-brained and big souled, essentially a man of the people, he makes an ideal national representative and has record of which he may we'll be proud. His ability is recognized among his colleagues, and the fact that he is a member of the minority party has not prevented him from secur- ing valuable committee assign ments, among the most important of which is a ranking member of the judiciary committee.
 While he has no opposition. Faulkner county will take pleasure in endorsing him at the Marcn pri- mary by giving him the full strenth of the party.

DONAGHEY RUNNING.

From all indications Donaghey is III aking a most creditable race for governor. There are a few peop 1e who have slight distaste e for Donaghey because they think he knows or cares nothing but the State Capitol question and is rum ming for governor solely on that issue. This is a mistake. Don aghey is friend of the busin ess man in every sense of the word. He Is friend of the farmer. He is friend of every boy and girl in the state. Of course, all other candidates are too, but we mean he has done something to show his friendship. What he has done for education in Arkansas is away above the average. In fact there are few men, if any, who have done more for education in Arkan- sas than Donaghey has done. Ii is scarcely necessary to say that he is a friend of tue laboring man, for he is one of them. It has been only a few years since he was swinging the hammer and the hand saw jpst like auy other carpenter in Pr escott and be has broad sym pathy for every other man who IS doing the same thing. He is not a brilli ant orator, but he makes a plain practical talk which will ap- peal to every class of men and make him friends wherever he goes. The newspapers ot the state have not been his horn so much but he has been hard at work IT legitim ate campaigning, and hl' efforts together with those ot hl' friends are showing great results Get on your horse and ride ovel the cou ntry and about two out O every three men you meet are Don aghey men. 1t is because wha know a nd have seen of Donaghey looks g ood to them and they are not de ceived. Unless all sign: fail. D onaghey will be the neX govern or of Arkansas, and we vii be no ne the worse for it.-Prescot News.
