To Sweetheart

Ny sweetheart's eyes are a deep. deep blue,
Through which his little heart CLEANS as true
And as pure as altar flame;
And l feel that it's love beams-all mothers do
Can purge all hearts of shame.
My sweetheart's ears, so pink, 80 small,
Are list ming, list ming, for a call
To unsullied life and work:
And l pray no word / would recall
In his snow-pure soul shall Turk.
My sweetheart's lips. so soft, so meet
For lisping, cooling, kissing sweet,
May some days souls inspire:
And dead Goals of faith, love, life, reheat,
With a spark of loves own fire.
Ny sweetheart! Turn towards the clearest light,
O, hear but that which is pure and right,
And speak what is good and true!
Yet l weep, for / know if thy life burn bright,
1t shall end of an ashy hue

A Hand on the Shoulder.

When man amt got cent,
And he's feeling kind of blue,
And the clouds hang dark and heavy
And won't let the sunshine through,
It's great thing, oh, my brethren,
For a fellow just to lay
His hand upon your shoulder
In friendly sort o'way.
1t makes. the tear-drops start,
An you sort o. feel futter
In the region of the heart.
When his hand is on your shoulder
You don't know what to say, -
When his hand is on your shoulder
In frienrfly sort o. way.
Oh, the worlds curious compound
With its honey and its gall,
With it's cares and bitter crosses
But good world after all,
An good God must have made it
Leastways, that is what | say
When hand is on my shoulder
In a friendly sort o'way.

felt Money Seized By De-
tectiyes

Jim Raper, 2128As Second avenue,

tectives Brannon, Macke and Newly.

The detectives found a complete
counterfeiting outfit in Raper's room
ing house, which consisted of a plaster
of paris mold, quantity of block tin,
plaster of paris, ladle and several
counterfeit half dollars. The outfit
was found in different rooms of the
house No two pieces were found in
the same room. The mold found, was
being used to make 50-cent pieces. The
coins found by the detectives were
very crude.
The police and detective departments
have had several complaints this week
of counterfeit half dollars being passed
and Detectives Brannon and Macke
were assigned to the case, which led
to the arrest of Raper and the finding
OF the counterfeiting outfit.
Raper was seriously shot when he
and Tom Collier were found on the
Louisville & Nashville railroad track

vember by detectives and special
agents, when a Louisville & Nashville

CAMPAIGN PLANNED
AGAINST GOODS SENT
OUT ON APPROVAL
/. Practice Undesirable from Many
Standpoints Is Contention-Mer-
chants Indorse Action of
Chamber

Merchants of Birmingham have been
protesting on the goods sent-out-o ON
approval" plan for several months, and
the Chamber of Commerce has an
nounced that they will start a campaign
against the practice. Merchants have
held that the sending out of goods on
this basis has often proven undesira-
BILE, both to the house and the sales
man. Since the practice has been in
dulged in, and customers expect it,
there is no loophole out of sending out
goods in this way.
In selling shoes, it is stated that
many times a salesman works patiently
to fit a customer, and when fitted the
lady will request that the shoes be sent
to her residence so that she may put
them on in her room and try them out.
This is done, and often the case, the
merchant misses a sale because his last
triple-A of a certain number is out.
After 'milady'' has put the shoes on,
skipped and tripped over the entire
house to see if they give the same com
fort her boudoirs do, the triples are
returned to the store in good shape,
