Smiles should be a part of our
selves every day of the week. Do
you know we esteem those persons
our best friends who greet US with a
smile and a kind word. A commun-
ity composed of individuals who look
always on the bright side of every
thing would, in our opinion, be an
ideal community. What we need in
this life IS sunshine, and a great deal
of it.

Bullion stitch works effectively on

In cutting the yokes for waist and
skirts cut them of some other ma

Home made pillow cases should
have the selvage torn from the ma

the pillow cases much smoother and
they will not wrinkle along the seam.
Cut the selvage from napkins to

The religious man who goes about
with a long face and his lip hanging
down over his chin, has mistaken a
case of dyspepsia for a change of
of heart. The true christian has a
ready made smile always on tap, and
is glad in heart all the day long, from
Jan. l till the general judgement.
Heavens best gift is 4 hopeful
heart, which rises superior to every
adverse element and stems every OPP
posing tide. One such spirit in a
family is a blessing beyond estimate
and if a whole family would give out
all the sun shine it could generate
by continually striving to outshine
every other member there would be
few cloudy days in the year.

We are not all born with the sun
shine in our heart, as the Irish people
prettily call it, but we can all coax
some of it in there if we only try.
The faculty of seeing the bright
side, or, at least the edges of that
side, is one that married people might
cultivate with profit to each other.
Courtesy is of more value in the
home than many believe it to be. 1t
is easiert to love 4 person thaniti is obe
always courteous to him, and yet it
is one of the most valuable recipes
for keeping that love fresh within our
hearts.

El Paso, Texas, June 10-Shortly
before midnight last night east bound
passenger train No. 2 of the Ell Paso
and Southwestern railroad was held
up by lone bandit, who herded the
occupants of the tourist sleeper into
a private car attached to the rear of
the train, compelled them to deposit
their money and valuables in heap
and made his escape with the plumber
across the desert towards the, noun
tains.
Rough estimates place the value of
his haul at several thousand dollars.
The holdup occurred one mile east of
Robsart, N. NJ, near Corrizozo
He covered the Pullman conductor
and brakeman with a gun, compelling
them to stop the train. Driving the
men before him he entered the sleeper
car, awakening the occupants with a
gruff command to gather their valu-
ables together and proceed to the pri-
vate car of Superintendent Hawks in
the rear.
One by one the half-dressed pas
sengers covered by the robbers gun,
clambered from their berths.
Taking his time and exhibiting re-
markable GOODNESS the bandit took an.
inventory of what each bore in up.

The job was thorough Not a pas.
senger escaped, not one being able
to keep anything of value When all
the berths emptied the bandit drove
his victims into the private car where
all, including Superintendent Hawks,
were told to place their property in a
pile on the floor
Still covering the crowd with his
gun, the bandit swept the plumber
into sack and backed out of the car.
AS he departed he shot out the rear
lights of the train, firing four shots.
A hastily organized posse is in pur-
suit of the robber in the hope of in
him before he can cross
the desert to the mountains toward
which he is headed. Passengers who
had been left destitute for the time
being are being cared for by the rail-

the 18th, you will have but short
time to sell the stock We want it

asked us to accept your resignation

We have fully decided to close out the
Palestine store, and as the lease ex-
pires there in a short time, necessary
steps will have to be taken to dispose
of the stock on hand or reship it. We
have requested Mr. McNutt, our spec

you with therefore turn the stock over
to him. He is instructed to close out
the stock or ship it in by the 25th,

rented the store will want to occupy
It by that time
