Shoe Trade Notes.
Chuzzlewit.

There are in Switzerland SO shoe
factories, employing In the agg-
regiate 5000 hands, considerable
number of whom are women. Most
of the Swiss factories are equipped
with american machinery and many
Of them are producing imitation
American shoes.
The Shoe Company has made
SPLENDID progress in getting their
new lines of spring samples through
its factories and many of these lines
will be ready for inspection within
the next ten days or two weeks.
The sample line consists of about
125 different styles of shoes from
medium price McKay's and screws
to high class welt shoes.
About one half of the sole leather
workers who went on a strike last
Friday from nine of the shoe factor
les in Lynn. returned to work in three
of the factories when the firms sign
ed an agreement giving the work
men an increase in wages and short
er hours. This practically settles the
strike as it is expected that the
other six manufacturers will also
sign an agreement very soon.
In Durango City, Mexico, several
thousand pairs of shoes are made by
hand each month in the numerous
small cobbler shops throughout the
city. These shoes are of coarse
type and of heavy quality and COM
peate with American shoes only in

TO Crafty, INDULGE. HUMOR..

TO Crafty, INDULGE, HUMOR:
TO CRAFTY, make grateful or pleasant,
is positive act of the choice. TO in
dulge, from the Latin mdulgeo, and dulcis
to sweeten or make palatable, is neg.
ative act of the will, yielding of the
mind to circumstances. One gratifes
his desires or appetites; and mdulges his
humor, or mdulges in pleasures; by the
former, one seeks to get the pleasure
which the desire promises; by the latter
one yields to the influence which the
humor of passion exercises. Gratifying
as habit becomes vice, and indulging
as habit is weakness.
In this sense of the words, gratifca-
ton is mostly applied to mental objects,
as to crafty ones curiosity; Indulgence
to matters of sense or partial feeling,
as to indulge ones palate.
A person who is in search of pleasure
gTatifes his desires as they arise, he
lives for the qualifications, and depends,
upon it for his happiness. He who had
higher objects in view than the mo-
mentry qualification, will be careful not
to indulge himself too much in such
things as will draw him away from his
purpose.
1t is certainly very important lesson to learn
how to enjoy ordinary things. and to be able to
relish your being, without the transport Of some
passion, or eradication of some appetite-Stee1e

natural or artificial, for he was slave to no pas

AS occasional acts, crafty and indulge may
be both innocent: Titles. estates. and fantasti-
cal pleasures are more ardently sought after by
most men than the natural qualifications of a
reasonable mind-Addison.

We grat1y and indulge others as well

or to be lenient to the infermities of
others, it is an act of kindness or good
nature.

BIG DEAL AFFECTS
 PINE BLUFF M. D. & G. Railroad Will Build Into This City
 Without Delay.
AWAIT FREE BRIDGE
Officials Go to st. Louis to Arrange Details of Million E0IIar
 Transaction.

The Nashville, (Ark.) News of re- i cent date tells of a big deal that has been consummated in which the business men of this city and section are vitally interested The deal means the immediate extension of the Memphis, Dallas and Gulf Railroad into Pine Bluff, via Hot Springs and Philadelphia, and private information from Nashville to Pine Bluffians who are greatly interested in the project is to the effect that the officials of the road, which is now 100 miles long are awaiting the building of the Free Bridge here in order to begin actual construction work on their proposed ! extension. The Memphis, Dallas and i Gulf owners are planning to build their line from Memphis to Clarks- ville, Texas, and the survey has al- ready been made
 The Nashville News has the follow ing encouraging report of the recent transaction:
 A deal has been closed whereby the properties Of the Memphis, Dal- las and Gulf Railroad and the Gray soniaNashvlle Lumber Companies have been segregated, N. w. Nc. cod, of St. Louis, acquiring the stock held by the Arkansas people ill the lumber company, and they acquiring the holdings of MT. Mcleod and his St. Louis associates in the railroad.
 A million dollars is represented in the deal, that amount being paid the Arkansas stockholders for their in- terests in the mill company, which will Ee utilized in pushing the exten- sion of the road from Murfreesboro to Hot Springs and Pine Bluff, pro- vided in their bonus agreements.
 General Manager c. c. Henderson and General Attorney J. w. Bishop, of the Memphis, Dallas and Gulf, left for St. Louis Monday afternoon, to at- tend to the final details of the trans, fer of holdings.
 Now that this deal has finally been closed, the people of this section may expect prompt action toward the extension of the line east, and officials of the railroad, expect to have trains running into Hot Springs within a year.
 It is probable that MT. Bishop will go from St. Louis to Washington City, to appear before the interstate com merce commission with an application asking that their recent order placing the M., D.. & G. in the tapline class be rescinded.
