A Story They Tell In Washington
About Senator jeff Davis.

About Senator jeff Davis.
Senator JEFF Davis and a valued con-
stituent were in the senate gallery one
day during the recent session. The
constituent was visiting Washington
for the first time. 1t was a dull mo-
ment in the senate, and not one-tenth
Of the seats were occupied.

the Arkansas visitor, viewing the va

"You keep your seat and I'll stir
them up" said Senator Davis, rising.
Two minutes later Mr.. Davis was ad-
dressing the vice president.

If I Can Live.

II can live
To make some pale face brighter and to
give
A second luster to some tear dimmed eye
Or cen impart
One throb of comfort to an aching heart
Or cheer some wayworn soul in passing
by;
II can lend
strong hand to the fallen or defend
The right against q single enviaus strain,
My life. though bare,
Perhaps, of much that seemeth dear and
fair
To US Of earth will not have been in vain.
The purest Joy,
Most near to heaven, far from earth's
alloy,
Is bidding cloud give way to sun and
shine.
And twill be well
If on that day OF days the angel tell
OF me she did her best for one Of thine.

Eightmile was treated to a religious
service last Sunday by Rev. Tague
There was a very good attendance con-
sidering the disagreeable day. The SER
vice was much appreciated by the people
of Eightmile. as we seldom have the
pleasure of hearing minister's voice in

led his subject very ably, and we are
glad to announce that he will be with
us again on the second Sunday IN May.
Everybody come.
The most of the farmers are about
through with their spring seeding, and
are ready to start summer following.
Some are preparing the ground now for
summer-fallowing by right-lappng the
ground. This.i is for the purpose of con.
serving the moisture; also to cover up
the weed seed so by the time they are
ready to begin plowiog. the weeds will
have sprouted and perhaps will De up,
so that when the ground Is plowed the
greater portion of the weeds will be
destroyed.
