Counsel Sought from Christian Mer

Counsel Sought from Christian Men.
An evidence of the part which Jul
missionary colleges RI to play in the
reconstruction Of Turkey is found in
the appointment Of two professors in
Euphrates college on a committee to
consider educational measures for one
of the large interior provinces. One,
Prof. N. Tenekijian, several years ago
served a term of six months iii prison,
being falsely accused of disloyalty,
and Prof. Nahigian studied for a time
under President Angel at Ann Arbor.
Both are scholarly and earnest Chris
tian men. The same governor has also
asked DR.. H. N. Barnum, the veteran
missionary of the American board in
eastern Turkey, to suggest what in
his judgment will promote popular ed
ucation and social reform.

LIGHT BOOZE

During the two years Of my train.
ing as a nurse, while on night duty, I
became addicted to coffee drinking. Be-
tween midnight and four in the morn
ing, when the patients were asleep,
there was little to do except make the
rounds, and it was quite natural that
I should want a good, hot cup Of cot.
fee about that time. 1t stimulated me
and l could keep awake better.
after three or four years Of coffee
drinking I became a wreck
and thought that I simply could not
live without my coffee. All this time
I was subject to frequent bilious at
tacks, sometimes so severe as to keep
me in bed for several days.
AFTER being married, Husband
begged me to leave off coffee for he
feared that it had already hurt me
almost beyond repair, so I resolved to
make an effort to release myself from
the hurtful habit.
Il began taking Postum, and for "a
few days felt the languid, tired feeling
from the lack Of the stimulant, but l
liked the taste of Postum and that
answered for the breakfas. beverage

FINALLY I began to feel clearer head
ed and had steadier nerves. After a

new woman-have not had any bilious
attacks since I left of coffee"

WHERE PAT DREW. THE LINE
Patient and Long Suffering, But No
Man with a Face Like That Could
Work with Him. @

Pat had been at work for three days
digging a well, and as the foreman
wanted 1t finished within the week he
had promised Pat another man to
help him. 1t was getting on for II
o'clock, and Towser, the foreman's
bulldog, was looking over the edge Of
the pit, when Pat said to himself,
"Smoke-o."
He had just filed his pipe, and was
about to light it when he glanced up
and beheld Towser's handsome fea-
lures.
Slowly removing the pipe from his
mouth, he said: "Be-e-egorra, Olive

the governor has right to insist that
his promises and the promises of his
party to the people of the state be re-
deemed When Governor Campbell
tells us that conditions at Austin are
rank we are inclined to believe him,
and his opinion is backed by that of
many other men. Former Governor
Glenn of North Carolina, who was a
recent visitor to Austin, tells us that
conditions are horrible in our state
capital, William Jennings Bryan found
cause for sharp criticism, Senator
Thomas said things were rank, and
many others have given similar testi-
mony, so we must conclude that there
must be some cause for it all. And
under such criticism the legislature
goes junketing for three days on full

completed. Space has already been
reserved for the exhibit and steps
will be taken Immediately to get up a
collection worthy of the county. The
Courier and Times has already called
attention to the Importance of having
Smith county represented in a fitting
manner at the State Fair. 1t is an OPP
portunfty to show to the many thou
sands of visitors to the state the
l'splendid resources of this county If
we are to share in the prosperity that
is coming to the state because of i'm
migration, we must show people what
we have. Furthermore, we must show
them in a concrete way-show them
the great variety of products that are
being grown in this county, and give
to them accurate, truthful informa-
ton about what is now being done.
There needs be no eXaggeration about
all this The truth about Smith coun-
ty is sufficiently Illuminating to cause
thousands of homeseekers to come
our way. But the story must be told
The Dallas Fair offers the best medi-
UNI through which to tell the story.
Therefore our duty is clear. We can
not afford to neglect so great an op-
portunity. But what is done must be
done quickly. Not another week
should elapse before some steps are
taken looking to creditable exhibit
at the Fair. Various commercial or
CARNATIONS of the county are expect
ed to take the lead in movements of
this kind. Their positions make them
the leaders in the efforts of the peo-
pie to attain a better commercial
standing. They cannot escape the re-
sponsibility of this leadership. Shall
Smith county be represented at the
Dallas Fair next fall?"
East Texas is fertile, East Texas
has cheap lands, East Texas has been
overlooked and East Texas is mostly
to blame Our Tyler eonteplpo is
quite right when it says, ..The Dallas
Fair offers the best medium through
which to tell the story East Texas
is a fruit country, East Texas has
