The publishers of The Youths
Companion will, as always at this
season, present to every subscriber
whose subscription (St,75) is paid
for 1910 a beautiful Calendar for
the new year. The picture panel
which suggests the title, "Vene-
tian," for the Calendar was painted
by the famous marine artist,
Thomas Moran. His Venetian
scene, reproduced in the Calendar
by thirteen-color photography, will
be found we'll worth preserving,
long after 1910 is gone by.

A couple of attorneys from st.
Louis were taking dispositions be-
fore Mr.. Edgar, as notary public,
Monday and Tuesday. The evil
dence is to be used in the trial of a
case now pending in the federal
court, wherein the American Land
& Mining Co., of Cincinnati, o., is
suing the Missouri Disseminated
Lead'& Mining Co., of st. Louis,
for breach of warranty. The suit
grows out a sale of land made to
plaintiff by defendant some time
ago. Plaintiff is asking damages,
alleging that in the deal, defend
ants decided some 5000 acres to
which,they had no title. The land
is situated in the south end of the
county and many witnesses from
Brunot and Des Arc were exam
lined.
The Greenville Journal says:
Specifically complete in all ways,
the new concentration of the st.
Francois Iron and Lead Company
was given it's first trial this week.
The boilers were fred the ma
chinery turned over and every
thing is in readiness for actual OPP
erations to begin next week.
Erected at an approximate cost of
100000 the initiatory run of this
concentration marks an epochin the
history of Greenville. If the fu-
ture of the concentrator is a sue
cess in the commercial sense the
future of Greenville as a thriving
city of ne means proportion is as
sured. If against the Judgment Of
the best iron men in the country
it should be a failure and a white
elephant on the hands of it's owners
the future of Greenville will be
that of the average county seat
dependent upon a small farming
community"
Idella Orsborn, daughter of
Samuel and Malindia Orsborp,
was born August 18th, 1889, and
departed this life November 21st,
1909, at the age of 20 years, two
months and twenty-five days. She
was converted and united with the
Southern Methodist church in 1905.
Her father and mother, three sis
ters and three brothers survive
her, and a host of relatives and
friends to mourn her loss. Yet
our loss is heavens gain. The
bible has been her constant friend
during her sickness. She bore
her sufferings without a murmur
and talked constantly Of the
heavenly home, and how sweet it
would be to sleep in Jesus. She
would talk to papa and mamma
