BEAUTIFY YOUR HOME WITH
OUT EXPENSE.

Mr. F. H. LaBaume, Agricultural
Agent of the Norfolk and Western
Ry. will send our readers free, some
seeds of the Stately Catalpa tree and
the Beautiful Castor Palm.
The Catalpa tree is one of the
most rapidly growing shade trees
we have. 1t will grow to a good
size shade tree in five or six years
and blooms annually. TIA
The blossom Is large and fragrant
and the leaves are large and velvety.
In the west this tree is highly es-
teemed both as an ornamental tree
and as timber tree. They make
excellent fence posts when cut young
and are largely grown by railroads
and others for ties and timber. Mr..
LaBaume has secured large sup
ply of the seeds of this tree and
will be glad to send them to those
who will plant them to advantage.
The Castor Palm is a very large
palm-like annual which frequently
grows to a height of ten or twelve
feet. It's leaves are foot or more
in diameter and it is one of the most
attractive plants that can be grown
for ornamental purposes. 1t can be
planted in spring and before summer
is well under way 1t will have
reached a magnigcent growth
These seeds can be secured also
by addressing a request to Mr.. La
pauma or Roanoka Va Simnly
write him stating that you would
like to have some of the seeds and
that you will plant them carefully
and he will send the seeds with full
directions in regard to planting. This
is an opportunity to beautify your
homes, your school-grounds, the
grounds surrounding public build
.ings and our parks. Send for some
of the seed now.

Acquiring 4 Goodwin.

Speaking of the high cost of get
ting start in business, friend in a
near by town tells us that, the sum
of $4,000 is asked for the good
will of certain small concern, ex-
elusive of stock and fixtures. The
business is supposed to be $4,000 a
year inclusive of owners salary.
1t costs so much to buy out an es-
tablished business, unless the same
is forced on the market, that start
ing new concern commonly seems
more hopeful. But, If in the old
time way, a man simply hangs out
his shingle and waits for trade to
come, the prime of life may be gone
before he gets 1t.
The same result can be had in
fifth the time by efficient advertising.
Enterprise and truth telling are
the qualities that draw trade. To
prove that he has enterprise, and is
wide awake enough to protect the
customers interest, merchant must
take the initiative and make Wig
orous push for business.
A newspaper advertisement can be
placed in every home for per cent.
of the cost of personal solicitation.
1t is read when people are at their
leisure in mood to listen to what
the merchant has to say.
Good advertising gives an impress
sion that the merchant is alert and
energetic in meeting public needs,
and public impression of that kind
is good will, :" having large cash
value. 1t is like money on interest
in the bank
Returning to our starting point,
If instead of paying $4,000 a year
for that business, man should
spend $500 year for two years in
advertising, he would have $4,000
in his pocket and a better business
standing

1t is interesting to note how the
idea is finding Judgment in the minds
of shreWd politicians in various parts
of the country that the outcome of
the Baltimore convention may be the
nomination. of William Jennings
Bryan. 1t is recognized that the
democrats are splitting UP between
candidates in a way that may soon
lead them to exhibit such bitterness
of feeling as the republicans are dis
playing OF course Gov. Foss is
aboundngly expectant that out of
the confusion of interests he will
emerge as the candidate and the
friends of Gov. Marshall of Indiana
think that he may be taken. In
Washington the Massachusetts exec
utive is looked upon as an impossi-
bility, and the governor of Indiana is
regarded as having small chance
But that the Bryan habit might
sweep the convention without half
trying is forecast that Is coming to
have increasing vogue.

The State Committee.

The Hinton Independent-Herald in
speaking of THE Republican Idea,".
says:
THE republican newspapers of
this state are doing a great deal of
Tipping just now about Watson skin
ming McGraw in the democratic state
committee. A republican seems to
have no conception Of committee
that somebody does not own bodily.
The democratic state committee of
this state Is neither Mr.. McGraw's
committee nor Mr. Watson's commit
tee And it might be added, inciden-
tally, that 1t does not belong to Mr..
Chiffon, nor Mr. Holt, nor Mr. Tier
ney, nor Mr.. Thompson. 1t is the
state committee of the democratic
party and it Is trying to help the
democratic party to carry this state.
This committee isn't going to oppose
a thing just because Mr.. Watson ia
yors it,; neither Is 1t going to be for
a thing just because Mr.. McGraw
says he wants 1t. Mr.. McGraw HAS
more personal following on the COM
mittee than Mr.. Watson. OF the 15
members of the committee. at least s
Of them, perhaps, would vote for Mr..
McGraw for United States senator in
preference to Mr.. Watson. But for
the information Of republican edit
ors, let us say that McGraw does not
personally own these 8 or 8 men.
and neither does Mr.. Watson own
the other fellows. A committee that
is not personally owned by senator
may seem strange to republican,
as he never saw one In West Vir-
ginia in his own party that was not,
4 but that Is the fact about the demo-
cratic executive committee OF this
state 1t is a party committee, in
stead OF personal committee Col
lectively the committee loves Nc
Graw and Watson and Chiffon and
Holt and Tierney and Bill Thompson
and old Lew Tavenier, but II. is not
the personal asset of any OF these
gentlemen. The committee, we un-
derstand, does not like George
Bland, because he Is not a straight
democrat and has no gumption be-
sides. Otherwise, all democrats look
alike to the committee"

An Announcement Of the Citizens
Herald

For various reasons, the Citizens
Herald of Matewan. will cease publ
cation weekly for the present, but
will be issued monthly for two
months, then weekly again
AS soon as the first issue appeared
there was a we'll founded suspicion
that the paper would not be permit
ted to wend it's way peacefully. For
two weeks however, the paper sold
like hot cakes by newsboys. When
the third issue appeared the boys
came as usual, all eager to get the
paper fresh from the press, but 10,
they soon returned bringing all their
copies, and saying they were not al
lowed to sell any more. What is the
world had happened !? In Williamson
the carrier was intimidated, insulted
and abused while delivering the
paper. Unsigned threatening letters
have been received. and my printer
has been given to understand some
thing would happen to the printing
office, and that something worse
might happen. He has been in a
fright and is afraid to continue get
ting out the paper / have no other
way to get it out except by his help.
All this is aside: The main ques-
| ton is, How long are we going to
tolerate such conditions in this coun-
ty? Are few interruptions GRIM
finals, in this county always going to
hound in this fashion? have told
nothing but the truth in the paper
Yet a few selfish politi.
clans determine the truth shall not
be told in any fashion. Unless the
people are always ding to submit Il
such a thing. it is time they were
doing something.
/ The people of Matewan acquitted
themselves nobly while they wers
allowed to support the paper. Nov
some are afraid to let it be known
they are supporting the paper.
Unless this kind of thing ceases
the paper will soon die, and we vii
simply have to acknowledge that the

An unusual example of modesty is
that of Lord Lister who has left all
of his estate, vaued at $500, 900 to
charity. A clause in his will declares,
Il don't wish that my name should
be in any way associated with these
sums in the future He further ex-
presses his wish that his medals
shall be melted up and his diplomas
and manuscripts destroyed if the
university of Edinburgh, to which
he has left them, considers such ac-
ton desirable at any time. Lord Lis
ters chief requests are of loo, 900
to the Lister institute of preventive
medicine and $4,000 each to four
London hospitals.
