Paint upi

Says the Abilene Reporter: "A gal. lon of paint costs less than two dollars and will go a long way toward cover ing your house. It not only improves the beauty of the structure but pre- serves the wood from decay. It is cheaper to paint up than not to do SO" This advice is particularly applicable to conditions now existing in our own city. There is a large amount of un- employed labor here that could be profitably used in such work and with a great number of vacant houses need. ing the application of the paint brush, the owners of such houses could lind no more opportune time for enhancing the value of their own property and at the same time giving employment to a deserving class of citizens now forced into idleness.

Mexican Annroaches-

Although Mexico lies half within and half without the tropics, it is gen orally known as a tropical country. and, indeed, the main gateway to 1t, Vera Cruz, is tropical seaport. which may well give rise to such general impression upon the part of the Euro pean traveller different impres. sion, however. is acquired upon enter ing the country from the United States to the north No tropic forests and bright plunged birds are en- countered there as at Vera Cruz.

CHAPTER g.

CHAPTER 9. Then verify the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and i worldly sanctuary. 2. F;r there was a tabernacle ! made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table. and the sheN tread; which is called the sane tuary.
 5. And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holi- est Of all;
 4. Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overla!d round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had mama, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the
 tables of the covenant; ,. And over it the cherubims of !. glory shadowing the mercy seat; of
 which we cannot now speak particu1-
 arly.
 6. Now when these things were
 thus ordained, the priests went al-
 ways into the first tabernacle, ac- complaining the service of God.
 r. But into the second went the
 high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors Of the people: E...@ s<G. Ft #' 8. The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the, first tabernacle was yet stand ing:

Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, disposed on them until the tirne<of .re,crmation.,
 II. But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
 12. Neither by the blood of goats and calves: but by his sseW s1seWnts blood he entered in Sonce into fhei5 holy place, having obtained eternal re- demption for us. IS.

Friendly Fish.

A curious tnstanee of the familiarity If fishes with human beings has been observed in Portland, Ore, at the Uni' ted States barge office. The official boat is kept at the end of the wharf Some time ago one of the boatmen began to notice fish about eight inches long, and resembling carp that seemed to wish to scrape acQuain. tance. The fish would come up to the .op of the water whenever the man aIr peared, and did not seem to be at all afraid. After a time all the men got to know the fish; and began to take friends to see him At first he might net be in sight, but he would very soon appear and frisk around near the surface. Once or twice he has come so close as to rub his nose against the boatman's hand, and the IGen ara waiting further developments.

TWO YEARS OF WILSON.

At the end of the first half of the first democratic administration for tG years, it is natural for the politi- cal friends and the political oppo- rents of the president to sum up the administrations achievements, and It is natural that these summaries should be colored by the political lcanings of the summarizers. It IS easy for a democrat to turn his blind side to the mistakes of Woodrow Wilson and it is hard for a republl- cYn not to turn his blind side to some of the presidents great achieve ments. Therefore the summary or a gl eat newspaper like the Chicago Tribune is interesting, for the Fri hune is entitled to be called one oi the fairest papers printed, which IS enc of the reasons on which is based tte claim that it is "the world 's greatest newspaper"

The Dawn of Christianity
 As Des cribed A THE NEW TESTAMENT Translated fro n the Original Greek.

blood of Christ, who through the eternal Sririt offered himself without 1 spot of God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 15. And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that ! by means of death, for the redemp- ton of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise ; of eternal inheritance. 16. For where a testament IS there nut also of necessity be the death of the testator. IT. For testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise 1t IS | of no strength at all while the tes- tator liveth.
 IS. Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
 IS. For when Moses had spoken 'ef.e,y precept of all the people ac- cording to the law, he took the blood of Calves and of goats with water. sprinkled both the book, and all the people.
 20. Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath en- joined unto you. 21. Moreover he sprinkled with blood beth the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
 2z. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and with out shedding Of blood is no remis- sion
 23. It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should he purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
 24. Fer Christ is not entered into tine holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
 25. Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
 26. For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the, world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
 2S. So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salva- tion.

JEFFERSON MEMBERS OF GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

In the session of the Arkansas gen. c'al assembly ending today, Jeffer- sch county was as we'll represented as any in the state-far better than most. The county's delegation will compare favo-ably in every way with ,he delegation from any county in 2ry state legislature in the land.
 The Graphic has not always agreed With the Jefferson members of the present. general assembly, but that lces not rlind\i it to the good work they have accomplished. The Graphic esn disagree with a man without put t.ng him in the "knave or fool" class, and it believes that the general as- s.mblynien from this county we're Sctuated by the highest motives in tt.eir attitude toward all matters sub itted to them; The Graphic believes they were honest in their views-that .hey voted always according to their ewn ideas of right and wrong and TOT the best interests of Jefferson county and Pine Bluff, as they saw the situation.
 The the members of the delega titn were active, is evident from the frequency with which their names al peared in the public press. This shows that the Jefferson men were always "on the job" when matters O import were under consideration 2rd, being lon the job" possessed She ability to impress the fact upol others.
 Many important matters were con sidered during the session closins today, and in the handling of thes matters no delegation was nor prominent than the one from thl county, composed of senator T. ( White end Representatives E. W Brockman, B. F. Hooker and T. A Wilson.
