The Thing to Do. -.
One thing that is the matter with
Richmond is that half the people 10
not know and do not try to find out
what the other half are >doing. =.
that one-half don't want to do little
stirring on its own account 1t might
at least help the other half do even
greater things by boosting them, their
enterprise and the things they make.
and by talking up big Richmond aA-
every good thing that. big Richmond
makes. and by cutting out that ever
lasting knocking of Richmond and
Richmond products. It is certainly not
to any clty's credit that when good
thing is made in that city, be 1t
steam engine, a plow, q patent medi-
cine. paper bag, cigar or cheroot,
OF anything else that has merit, tue
maker has to go elsewhere to find
friends and to find market It is true
that there is no big manufacturing
establishment in Richmond that could
depend alone IN Richmond or Virginia
patronage for a living and for COM
plete prosperity. but Richmond con-
sumers and Richmond sellers and dis
.tributors ought In all common sense
and for the good OF Richmond to give
no matter what they are, II they have
merit and are as good as can be and
as are being made in other cities
Every factory In Richmond, be 1t a
tobacco factory, q nail factory. stove
factory. a box factory. a. shoe factory,
a flour-making factory. cigar factory
or any other kind Of factory, must
have payrolls. and the larger the bet
ter TOR the city. for the wages tho
employees draw are spent in Richmond.
Hence. to greater or less extent
cff{yar 4 g q mn rfr
tory in the town and sharer In the
profits. 1t follows. therefore,, as clear
~ as the day follows the night that
1t is to the interest OF every consumer
and every dealer to give Richmond
made goods Of whatever character the
preference. FOR be It understood that
home popularity for any article that
is madehunder the sun is OF itself a
good advertisement for such goods
away from home. Richmond -made
goods may be sold In every State of
the country. and all over the civilized
world. and they are, too. but at the
same time Richmond ought to be the
best and most reliable market In the
world for It's own home products. II
this spirit prevailed to an extent that
would amount to loyal pride and proud
loyalty there would be more young
men like this Gordon Cigar and
Cheroot Company gang to embark In
business of manufacturing kind and
to help make the name of Richmond
great at home ana known In every
nook and corner OF the country. Rich
mond needs more OF that kind OF
loyalty. It needs 1t more than any
one thing
he True to Thyself.
Yes, lfNthe whole town and this
whole State were bristling with that
kind of city pride and State pride and
loyalty there would be less of the talk
that is sometimes heard to the effect
that nobody has q chance nowadays
to do business unless they are In the
trust or have an alliance with some
kind of an imaginary all-powerful
combine. The young men ] have been
talking about were not scared on
their feet by the horrid word trust"

Richmond As an Apple Market.
Several apple-growers up In Abe
marie county. two at least, asked me
the other day why Rlchmond was not
a great apple market and apple-storing
and distributing centre. place where
sent and stored and sold from here
throughout the country and In foreign
lands. told him 1t was Just that
thing. and at the time I thought II
was, and it is, too. to a certain extent,
The fact is that Virginia apples are so
popular in the North and elsewhere
that big buyers rush to Virginia In
the early season and buy out the
orchardists before the fruit is even
ripe.
The orchards are to-day full Of
these fellows looking at the fruit on
the trees and bargaining for 1t. /
heard tho other day that the orchard
lists are holding stiff for more money
than the early buyers have offered.
and in consequence rather few big
deals have yet been made.
However. these New York fellows do
not buy all Of the Virginia apples In
this way. and Richmond commission
merchants handle a great many Of
them. disposng OF them the South
ern States and in European markets.
One dealer showed me considerable
orders on his desk only yesterday from
Denmark. England and Germany.
Richmond has common storage for
100000. barrels OF apples. that is, stor-
age room for that many apples that
need not be held longer than three
months. It has cold storage capacity
for $4,000 barrels. and -all OF this ca
pacity IS utilized every year. AS the
orchards in the State increase and the
production is enlarged there Will be
provided more storage room. and all
OF the facilities for handling immense
apple crops Will be increased as there Is
demand for them Indeed. Richmond is
q great apple market and fruit dis
trlbuting point. and In time 1t will be
much greater one. Perhaps the
Ignorance of these facts on the part
OF the orchardists saw is due largely
to the fact that the Richmond comlnis-
sion merchants who handle apples and
othor things do too little advertising,
The apple industry in Virginia has
reached mammoth proportions, and 1t
is growing larger and larger every
year. and Richmond should by all
means be the distributing point for
virginia grown apples. ~ IA

Mrs. Lou Martin Writes Poem for the
Occasion. n.-Msny Good Wishes for
Future Anniversaries

The charming country home of Mr..

in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Pearson,
1t being the twenty fifth anniversary Of
their wedding.
Only few of their old neighbors
and friends of twenty-five years ago
were present. Mrs. Green and daugh-
ter of Rolfe, Iowa, sister of Mrs.
Pearson and Mrs. Barber arrived on
the afternoon train, and her unexpect-
ed presence added much to the enjoy
ment of the occasion.
The time was spent in merry con-
versation, any many of the old-time
songs were sung all present joining.
The newer classics, both instrumental
and vocal, were rendered by Miss
Laura Pearson and Mrs. Lou Martin.
After a bountiful repast had been;
served, Mrs. Martin gave little poem
which she had written for the occa-
Esion, and at it's conclusion presented
Mr.. and Mrs. Pearson with some
choice pieces of silver-ware on behalf
Iof the friends present. Following this
Mr.. Ainsworth readsan original poem.
q Mr.. and Mrs. Pearson responded
briefly to the kindly wishes of their
friends, and after the gifts and token
had been seen by all, adieus were said,
and all the wraps that Mrs. Barber
could furnish were provided, and the
quests were driven back to their
homes, each hoping toliye long enough
Ito make the trip again twenty-five
iyears hence.

denly at his home in Spencer this fore

Trying MOMENTS OF BeREAvED
The Deaths Of Miss Frances Hart and
Mrs. James Rollins Particularly
i Sad.

{ There is something peculiarly sad in
the death Of Miss Frances Hart, which
occurred on Thursday last in the sani-
tariun at Battle Greek, Mich, where q
short time ago she went for treatment.
Miss Hart had lived here for several
years as member of the family of her
sister, Mrs. o. M. Criswell, her
parents having died several years ago.
She had large circle Of acquaint-
|ances and enjoyed the society
|of her friends. She was naturally of
Ia cheerful disposition and found much
lin life for enjoyment. It was but a
short time since that she left here for
Battle Creek for treatment under the
belief that she would soon return to
her family and friends entirely re-
stored to her former health. After her
larrival at Battle Greek she wrote to
her friends here most encouragingly OF
the prospects for an early recovery OF
her health. But, alas! it is the fate OF
humanity to suffer disappointment,
Her departure from Denison was for
lever, for soon after she reached the
sanitarium, an ailment which had not
attracted any attention before she
lleft here. developed, which finally
caused her death. The immediate
cause of her death was suppressed
meningitis and her death was so sud
|den that she expired among strangers
before any of her friends could reach
her. The body was taken for buria
to her childhood home at Comanche
Clinton county, Iowa, the funeral ser
vices being held at that place on Sat
5Enrday last, and the interment taking
Iplace at the Comanche cemetery. N,
Iintimhtion had been given that sh,
was not improving at the sanitariun
until last Wednesday evening, when {
message came to the Criswell family
saying her condition was grave, ant
this was soon followed by another
telling that her case was hopeless
The Criswells started Immediately
but were not able to reach Battle
A Greek prior to her death. The sym
lpathy of the community goes out t
her family and friends in their sac
