BROKEN RESOLUTIONS.

Twas only one short month ago when
devised plan,
To cut out all my habits vile and
be a model man.
I throwed away my filthy pipe, to-
bacco followed suit,
And cigarettes among the rest did
likewise have to scoot.
vowed that would never more OF
liquor taste drop;
I swore by all twas good and bad
these habits l would stop
swore that l would never take the
name of God in vain,
And by the help of him above ne'er
curse and swear again.
promised wife on sacred oath to
stay at home each night,
And in the future would do whate'er
I thought was right.
No more would my evening spend
carousing round the town,
But on each Sunday evening in
church pew would be found.
vowed to keep the golden rule, it's
precepts to obey,
And follow in my daily life the
straight and narrow way.
thought to keep each vow made
at beginning of the year,
Till 1 should reach the judgment seat
and read my title clear.
But this was one long month ago I
started this career
And that some VOWS are broken now
very much do fear
But, when I come to think of it |
guess quite forgot,
For if you want to know the truth,
I've broke the whole darn lot

as live stock center is recognized
all over the country. The live stock
produced in this county rival any pro-

demonstrated a few days ago when a
gentleman from an experiment station
in Mississippi came to Maury county
and purchased a jack at the hand |
some figure Of $1,750 after visiting |
all the jack sales In Missouri, one of !
the recognized mule centers of the

"This covers the most important field.

states where most Of our largest COM

a marked tendency toward separate
sources of State and local taxation, cen-

double taxation.
New Jersey derives % per cent. Of its

States the balance OF the State revenues
