EdltOf Independent
 Dear Sir take the liberty to address you for the purpose of expressing my appreciation and heartfelt thanks through the col umns of your valuable paper to the Oddfellows, Rebekahs and all other citizens of your good little city, for the courteous Urea tment accorded me on my recent official visit there as Dep uty Grand Master of the I. o. O. F. ot the State, trusting in the belief that you may find a little space in the pages of your paper to publish same.
 l have never in all my travels, privately or officially, been ac- corded such a reception, and | am particularly grateful to the RebekahS who decorated the hall so beautifully, and spared no efforts in doing that which will forever cause me to have pleas ant recollections of my short visit among them.
 can say without hesitation that l found among the people of your city a class of citizens that the order is proud to have among it's members of OddfellOwS and Rebekahs, and 1 sincerely trust that the lodge there will prosper and gain more members from among the good people of your town Oddfellowship means good men, good women, and good citi- zenship from a moral standpoint as well as fraternal It means the taking care of the sick, the widow and the orphan, and the helping of suffering humanity generally, and above all, it means the everlasting belief in Him who is the creator of all, for without such belief we cannot be good )ddfellews nor loyal citizens to our country.
 l am especially thankful to your good and worthy citizens Marion L. Dickens and l.. B. Arshka for the time and trouble taken in showing me your sur rounding country, in which are situated the fast growing rice fields of Lonoke county.
 Time and space will not per init my mentioning names of all the good people I met. but I am equally thankful to all, and wish them all happiness. pros perity and plenty, and the city of Carlisle bright future.
 Thanking you in advance for your courtesy in publishing this, l am, very respectfully,
 LOUIS JOSEPHS,

MOTHERS DAY.

Last Sunday was observed throughout the United States as Mothers Day, and men and boys everywhere in this great country wore a white rose in re membrance of the greatest gift to the world-a mother. May God bless the man who started this move, and may it continue as long as the world stands.
 Mortimer Judd Lewis, of the Houston (Texas) Post, wrote the following beautiful poem encour- aging this move, and it was printed in the Post last week: Who'll wear rose for Mothers Day, A half opened rose and white, Tucked in the morning while the dew That gathered over night To kiss it's petals like gem
 In its pure heart appears, As pure and sweet as mother love,
  Who for a Mothers Day will wear A blossom pure and white Above his heart, wear it from dawn Until the shades of night Come in upon the perfumed breeze And wrap the world and him As softly as the mother-love
 Wrapped him in days grown dim? A white rose just to honor her
 Whose love was purer far Than any gem the world has known, Than snow-white roses are; A white rose for the mother love
 That knows nor stop nor stay, That up the heights or in the depths Goes with him all the way. For Mothers Day who'll wear a rose? Who will not To uplift The thoughts of all the world one day To the most precious gift God ever, ever gave the world;
 A pure, white, thor nless rose For the best thing the world shall see Till heavens gates unclose.

No Show for the Printer.

The Mineral Wells (Texas)
 Weekly Health Resort in a re cent editorial sets forth the in justice of the governments posi- tion on the matter of printing the return cards on envelopes as follows:
 When we take up the consid- eration of the mail-order- house proposition, the merchant. and those who are against mail-order houses should pause and consid- CT the action of the government in the stamped envelope busi- ness. The merchant has living chance to escape destruction by live advertising and up-t too date methods, but the country editor has to fight the greatest organi- zation in this country if he would retain any envelope printing busi- ness. As to what we must buck up against it is difficult to say. but among other things are the following: An unlimited credit for advertising, using the very taxes the printers pay for this purpose; the most modern ma chinery obtainable, also partly paid for the printer; the use of the mails, to which the printer contributes, and last, but not least, is the fact that the printer cannot compete with the govern ment because the latter, through it's ability to make good any losses, sells for less than what the printer can purchase for. If the government were social. istic, and the people but links in the great chain, no harm might accrue; but as such is not the case, the government of these United States is taking bread out of the mouths of those whom the country pl inter has to feeC, or be called to account by this same government. It is no more fair for the government to sell envelopes below cost than it would be were they to sell hard ware, drygoods and groceries, and thus put these merchants out of business. The govern ment should cease to be a mail order house concern at the ex- penSe of the printer.

DID you ever sit around outside
 your house on Sunday after noon, or of an evening, maybe, and watch the paint, and see 1t go, when 1t ought to be holding on tight?
 Some paints are so poor that you can almost see them they dry out, and crumble, and powder, and blow away.
 Why do they do this? Why does this happen? Something the matter with the materials-too much lead, maybe, or poor oil, or not scientifically ground and mixed-might have been good materials but not balanced right for wear.
 At this store make it our business to KNOW what paint will wear-because it pays us to handle the kind that pays you. And that's why we handle MOUND CITY HORSE SHOE BRAND HOUSE PAINT made of pure lead and zinc and aged nseed oil the necessary drier and cooring matter-and nothing else. Every atom of every gallon of is good paint Paint that balanced for longest wear for finest looks and to spread the largest surface to the gallon. So much for the outside forget there's HORSE SHOE BRAND PAINT every ue-one for kitchen floors and for borders around for bugge another practically every other purpose.
 The best place this buy paint the where they know about and help and advise you particular paint for the how the surface ready and all that; things naturally get the best results So the best and the paint service (and you do. if you come here,) come here. Du d dley y & Call a h a n.

Record in the Marriage
Business

The complete figures in the death and

piled by Secretary Wigglesworth, OF
the Board Of Health, show on the one
hand the largest decrease in deaths
and on the other the largest increase
in births since the establishment of
the bureau in 1881.
The total number OF deaths for tho
year was 1340 In 1907 it was 1401, a
decrease Of 6t deaths Figuring OH
the population of the city as 91,5O0, the
decrease wos 14.64 per thousand Of the
inhabitants.
The total number of births was 1897
as against 1880 in 1907. on the same
basis Of population the increase was
20.SS per thousand of the Inhabitants
The fact that there has been such a
material increase IN the birth rate and
a corresponding decrease in the number
of deaths is rather good news and per
haps if it gets so far as Washington
II may be the cause Of another special
message to Congress. 1t speaks fol
the health and prosperity of Wilming

Despite the hard time of the yeal
there were 1926 marriages performd
here. In 1907 there We're 2SOl, and al
though in other cities the marriage

KISSING PART OF
PASTORS WORK

ST. LOUIS. Jan. 2--The Rev. J. II.
Flower, head of the Lighthouse Mis-
sion. has been suspended from the Free
Methodist Church and a demand has
been made on him for his credentials,
10 be surrendered until the next an
nual session Of the Central Illinois
Conference. This action was taken
by a court Of ministers appointed to
hear evidence relative to charges that
the evangelist mixed hugging and
kissing OF women with his pastora
work.
Several women testified against the
preacher and mission worker They
were women whom his pulpit eloquence
had converted" and who found that
the preacher was almost as eloquent
as ~oii"nt they said as he was on
the church rostrum. He combined re-
ligious instruction with love making,
witnesses said, and gave a glowing
description Of the River Jordan m
heaven, by the side Of which he said
he would delight to sit with a woman
for whose edincation the word picture
was painted.

RuSSia'S Royal
Family

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 2.-The death
OF Father John, Of Kronstadt, was re-
ported to-day. Father John, OF Kronstadt.
was probably the most powerful priest OF
the church in all Russia and had the love
and affection Of the Royal family TO a
marked degree. II was his church that
was the center Of many pilgrimages made
by the Car and Czarina and il was de-
clared by them that it was entirely due
70 his prayers that a male heir 70 the
throne of Russia was born.
Tall. and OF commanding appearance.
the priest presented formidable ap-
pearance as he marched at the head Of re-
hgious professions in years gone by. his
very lengthy brown-gray beard blowing
in the wind as he bore aloft the sacred
ikon. His fame grew throughout the ma
ton until II became the custom OF tour
lists to go to Kronstadt simply to sec
Father John.
Premature reports OF his death have
been made public several times, only "a
be later denied.
