Cremate my body and scatter my
ashes to the four winds, but don't
lay my body to rest in an unkept ceme-
terry. Where obnoxious weeds and
uncut grass grows without notice, ex-
cept to the silent sleepers of their
city. There is nothing more beautiful
nothing that speaks louder for a COM
munity than a. we'll kept cemetery.
Cemeteries, are the resting places of
the temple of our souls. Therefore
it behooyes all good citizens to lend
an out stretched hand for the better
ment and care of our cemetery.
The Offices of Maple Grove Cemetery
are making an effort to put the Gene
terry in a respectable condition and
we wish to ask all lot owners and
persons interested in said cemetery,
to lend us helping hand by renting
to the Office the sum of $3.50 for
which we will clean off all dead grass
fill all unlevel and sunken places,
put all streets and alleys in condition
so that lawn mower can be run any
place and to NOW your lot four or
six times during the season, or as
often as it may be necessary. This
$1.50 is small amount when you
consider the work that must be done
Kindly remember that there are lots
by the dozens that the owners of these
lots have moved away and their names
are almost forgotten. These lots
must be cared for in order to make
your lot look good. Now if you wish
to help us in this good work remit
$1.50 for your one lot, then We can
put one or two men at work all sea-
son and get the cemetery in good con-
dition but don't tell us that you are
going to take care of your own lot.
For this plan has been tried the last
80 years, and has proven an absolute
failure as far as taking care of a
cemetery is concerned.
Truly yours,
G.. w. Hoover, Trustee

Daylight nodded and went over to
him.. placing his own arm in obposi-
ton. "
I'D like to go you fiutter. son, on
that proposition" he said.
The young man laughed and locked
hands with him; and to-DayHght's as.

was forced down on the bar.

Daylight's muscles slipped instantly
into defence, and. resisting vainiy. his
hand was forced over and down Day
light was dazed. 1t had been no trick.
The skill was equal, or, II anything,
the superior skill had been his.
Strength, sheer strength, had done 1t.
He called for the drinks, and, still
dazed and bordering, held up his own
arm and looked at 1t as at some new
strange thing. He did not know this
arm 1t certainly was not the arm he
had carried around with him all the
years. The old arm? Why. 1t would
have been play to turn down that
young husky's. But this arm-he con-
tinued to look at it with such dubious
perplexity as to bring roar of laugh
ter from the young men.
This laughter aroused him. He
joined in 1t at first, and then his face
slowly grew grave He leaned to-
ward the hammer-thrower.
Son." he said, ''let me whisper a
secret. Get out of here and quit
drinking before you begin.
The young fellow flushed angrily,
but Daylight held steadily on.

him say few. I'm young man my

there yourself-hard. I've seen few
in my time, and ] amt fastidious so
as you can notice it. But let me tell
you right now that I'm worth the devil
alone knows how many millions, and
that I'd sure give it all, right here on
the bar, to turn down your hand.
Which means I'd give the whole shoot

before I quit sleeping under the stars

to drink cocktails and lift up my feet
and ride. Son, that's what's the matter

A candidate for congress had been
making a speech in one Of the towns
of his district where he was not we'll

while waiting for train he strayed
into a butchers shop and, without

"Yes," replied the butcher, Il was

What He Thought.

A man walking along the street of
a village stepped into. a hole in the
sidewalk and broke his leg, says the
Ladies Home Journal. He engaged a
famous lawyer, brought suit against
the village for one thousand dollars
and won the case. The city appealed
to the supreme court but again the
great lawyer won.
After the claim was settled the law
yer sent for his client and handed him
one dollar.
That's your damages, after taxing
out my fee, the cost of appeal and otn-
er expenses" replied the counsel.
The man looked at the dollar, turn
ed it over and carefully scanned the
other side. Then he looked up at the
lawyer and said; whats the matter
with this dollar? Is it a counterfeit?'

great work.

The next circus that asks for IL
cense to show in town ought to be
charged a million dollars. Circuses
answer no good purpose, and they
take away a considerable amount OF
money that would otherwise be spent
at home for articles of value.-NeW-
berry Observer.
A circus is an innocent form OF
amusement, largely an educational IN
stitution and entirely harmless. Tne
laborers and performers wear clothes
made from cotton and wool raised in
the South, they eat food, both in tran
sit and at home, which comes partly
from the farms of this section and
whatever else they buy is contrlou-
ZION to the sum total of the worlds
business, which is necessary for our
own prosperity. Let the circuses come
lust as long as the clowns are funny
and plenty of peanuts and candy and
pink lemonade is on tap. Perhaps, or
dinarily. Brother Wallace feels the
same way, but he might have been
suffering from the after effects of too
much popcorn when he wrote the
above.-Laurens Advertiser.
We agree most heartily with the Ad-
vertiser and we want to see the circus
continue to come. We can never for
get with what pleasant anticipations
as a boy in the country we looked for
ward to the coming of the circus from
the time the first bills were posted
until the day of the show, and now,
after the show, we had something
pleasant to talk about. And we like
to see the circus even to this day, and
regret we missed the show this year,
We hope the circus may live long
and be sufficiently prosperous to con-
Time its Journeys. 1t is a harmless
amusement. And for the money II
takes away it leaves something, and
besides man can not live to himself
alone.

Beat Suger Industry.

Although the growth of sugar beets,
from which more than half Of all the
sugar used in the world is now ex-
tracted, has been encouraged for a
century in Europe, it was not until
20 years ago that it began to be Sc
riously attempted in United States, and
only within the past decade has it risen
to position of commercial impor-
tance How rapid the growth of the
industry has been in recent years is
shown by the increase in the amount
of sugar produced from beets, which
has grown from 100000 pounds in
1899 to nearly 1,200,0O0,0OO pounds in
the present year, an increase of over
1900 per cent.
At the present time the beet sugar
industry is established in II states,
with II factories in operation and sew
eral others in course of construction.
Half million acres are planted to
sugar beets, and s45,O00,000 a year is
distributed to farmers, laborers, trans
portation companies and sellers of
supplies in the operations connected
with the making of beet sugar. How
far this is from presenting the sugar
producing capacity of the country is
shown by the, fact that the area esti-
mated by the department of agricul-
ture as adapted to sugar beet growing
comprises roundly 275,000,000 acres
and that the use of one acre in every
200 of this area for beet culture
would enable us to produce all the
sugar we now mport-National
