The election supplies tickets, poll books, tally sheets, lists of voters, in- structions to judges. etc, have been prepared at The Forrest City Times Job Printery and forwarded to the various voting precints of the county for the presidential election on next Tuesday, November 5. It is Impor- tant that a large democratic vote be boiled on this date in order to pre- vent a repetition of what occurred i'll this county on the date of the last presidential election when Taft car ried the county by small majority. The negro never fails to exercise the right of suffrage at presidential cleo tions, while on the other hand there seems always to be sluggish indirfer- ence and apathy on the part of demo- crats and it is just like pulling eye teeth 10 get them out to the polls. The Times desires to urge the impor- tance of this election upon all demo- cratic voters and we hereby admonish all democratic office holders and bene- fciaries of the party to do their duty and work untiringly in their efforts to get the full democratic vote out to the polls on next Tuesday, No vember 5 Tho men who have their feet under pic counter are the men ~Iu. galed 10 the party organiZa t' are the men who sb s. p s,-iative enough ,o s...

der velvet, and when she held out for
Percival Algernon and decent knowl-
edge of modern languages, the old
man agreed if, on the other hand,
the boys first name should be George
and that he should learn the business
eral tits over the matter, but at
length a truce was declared. 1t was
agreed that the boy himself ought to
have a word to say upon a subject
which concerned him more vitality
than any one else. So, at the age of
fifteen, when he was starting off for
preparatory school, he was advised
to choose for himself. He was an ODE
dent son, adoring his mother and idol
izing his father. He wrote himself
down as George Percival Algernon
Jones, promised to become a linguist
and to learn the rug business from
the cellar up. On the face of it, it
looked like a big job; it all depended
upon the boy.
The first day at school his misery
began. He had signed himself as
George P. A. Jones, no small diplo-
macy for lad; but the two initials,
standing up like dismantled pines in
the midst of uninteresting landscape,
reused the curiosity of his school
mates. Boys are boys the world over,
and possess a finesse in cruelty that
only Indians can match; and it did
0A to1 4hN1aa 10 01.4h 60
tai secret. For three years he was
Percy Algy, and not only the boys
laughed, but the pretty girls snig-
gered. Many a time he had returned
to his dormitory decorated (not in
accord with the fond hopes of his
mother) with a swollen ear, or a
ruddy proboscis, or green-brown
eye. There was a limit, and when
they stepped over that, why, he pro-
ceeded to the best Of his ability to
solve the difficulty with his fists.
George was no milksop; but Percival
klgernon would have been the Old
Man of the Sea on broader shoulders
than his. He dimly realized that had
he been named George Henry William
Jones his sun would have been many
diameters larger There was a splen-
did quality of pluck under his appar-
ent timidity, and he stuck doggedly
to it. He never wrote home and COM
planned What was good enough for
his mother was good enough for him.
1t seemed just an ordinary matter
of routine for him to pick up French
and German verbs. He was far from
being brilliant, but he was sensitive
and his memory was sound. Since
his mothers ambition was to see him
an accomplished linguist, he applied
himself to the task as if everything
in the world depended upon it, just
as he knew that when the time came
he would apply himself as thoroughly
TO the question of rugs and carpets.
Under all this filial loyalty ran the
puro strain of golden romance, side
by side with the lesser metal of prac-
ticality. When he began to read the
masters he preferred their romances
to their novels. He even wrote poetry
in secret, and when his mother discov-
cred the fact she cried over the senti-
mental verses. The father had to be
told. He laughed and declared that
the boy would some day develop into

ones loneliness. II only he had had
dog; but one can not carry a dog
half way round the world and back, at
least not with comfort What with
all these new-fangled quarantine laws,
duties, and fussy ships officers who
wouldn't let you keep the animal in
your state-room, travelling with a four
footed friend was almost an impossi-
bility. To be sure, women with
poodles. And then, there was
the bitter Of acid in the knowledge
that no one ever came up to him and
slapped him on the shoulder with "a
Hello, George, old sport; what's the
good word?" for the simple fact that
his shoulder was always bristling with
spikes, born of the fear that some one
was making fun of him.
Perchance his mothers spirit, how
ering over him this evening, might
have been inclined to tears. For they
do say that the ghosts of the dear
ones are thus employed when we are
near to committing some folly, or to
exploring some forgotten chamber Of
PandOra's box, or worse still, when
that lady intends emptying the whole
contents down upon our unfortunate
heads. If so be, they were futile
tears; Percival Algernon had accom-
plished it's deadly purpose.
Pandora? Well, then, for the bene-
fit of the children. She was a lady
who was an intimate friend of the
NEUROLOGICAL gods. They liked her ap-
pearance so we'll that they one day
gave her box, casket, chest, or what
ever it was, to guard. By some mar
velous method, known only Of gods,
they had got together all the trials
and tribulations of mankind (and some
of the joys) and locked them up in
this casket. 1t was the Golden Age,
as you may surmise. You recall Eve
and the apple? Well, Pandora was a
forecast of Eve; she couldn't keep her
eyes off the latch, and at length her
hands-Fatal curiosity! Whirr! And
everything has been at skies and at
sevens since that time. Pandora is
eternally recurring, now here, now
there; she is blonde sometimes, and
again she is a brunette; and you may
take it from George and me that there
is always something left in the casket.
George closed the book and consult
ed his sailing-list. In short time he
would leave for Port Said, thence to
Naples, Christmas there, and home in
January. Business had been ripping.
He would be jolly glad to get home
again, to renew his comradeship with
his treasures. And, by Jove! there
was one man who slapped him on the
shoulder, and he was no less person
than the genial president of the firm,
his fathers partner, at present his
Cwn. If the old chap had had daugh-
ter now. And here one comes
at last to the bottom of the sack. He
had only one definite longing, a
healthy human longing, the only long
ing worth while in all this deep, wide,
round old top; to love a woman and
by her be loved.
At exactly half after six the gentle
man with the reversible cuffs arrived:
and George missed his boat.
