Pleasant Smiles.

A pleasant smile is a thing worth while.
A pleasant smile is riches in a pile.
A cheerful face is the offspring of grace.
A cheerful face does buoy the human race.
A smiling countenance we always love to
meet.
A smiling countenance all people like to
greet.
The sentiment of the soul is expressed in the
face.
This gauge is as old as the human race.
Goodness, virtue, kind heartedness and grace
Are denoted in the countenance on the hui
man face.
The facial expression can therefore decide
Whether you're whole-souled or pulled UP
with pride.
The natural smile is an asset decreed
By scientists its admitted and thoroughly
agreed.
The man with the smile has the pleasant
word
An optimistic note from him will be heard.
Pleasant manners by him are worn.
He has a peaceful word for the tempest torn.
A natural crouch is quick to cry Ouch,
With ill tempered feelings he's sure to
crouch.
With a p~essimistic note in his daily tone
He won't let you nor me alone.
The chronic kicker is soon found out,
For the smiling face travels another route.

Pleasing Conduct.

The kind of a person we like to meet
Is the one thatll speak to us on the street.
No one is entitled TO such a grand stand
As will lift him above his brother man.
All men should be equal and free indeed,
For our Heavenly Father hath that decreed.
Pleasant name should be revered.
Their possessors should be endeared.
Always a pleasant salutation
Merits a hearty congratulation.
'Tis the simplest matter we know, of worth.
This speaking to people while here on earth.
Nobility of character and grandeur of soul
Are manifested often in a manner not dole.
Unselfsh characters with charity incline,
While opposite natures suffer decline.
Sublimity of spirit merits emulation;
That q%uality's an attribute of the Christian
nation.
Pompous pride desn't make the man.
1t never did it never can.
Depths of dependability are greatly preferred
To surface b%oasting. which you've heard.
The heart turned by mankind's Creator
Sympathizes with the lesser and the greater.

Attends to his duties without favor or fear.
At the bank window he daily appears
And into your face he looks without fears.

Naught but kind words from him do we hear,
A raise of the hand and a pleasant greeting
Is significant of his daily meeting.
A dependable smile and a word of good cheer
We receive from him in a tone that's not
drear.
Mr.. Stevenson we can freely recommend
As a fine man and a very dear friend.
Courteous, true and o~bliging is he,
This receiver of deposits from the treasury.
Honest, upright and reliable. too,
He's a gentleman all the way through.
He commands the respect of all in town.
He receives you with a smile, not a frown.
A dabster at mathematics is R. S. S.
Many figures will be found on his MSS.

He's proficient in these not a bit wobbly.
He came from Atlantic's Second National
Bank
With recommendations of the highest rank.
Business he attends to with despatch.
In shady deals him you'll not catch.

Port Republic

The home and contents of Mr.. and
Mrs. Booth, on Pomona avenue, were
entirely destroyed by fire on Sunday
morning. The blaze started in a back
kitchen and in 80 minutes after the
fire was discovered the house was
burned to the ground. Mrs. Booth
was alone at the time and before help
could arrive the fire had gotten such
a start that nothing could be saved.
She rushed up stairs to save some val
liable papers and would have been
burned to death had it not been for
the heroic efforts of Charles Johnson,
who carried her out unconscious and
badly singed. She and her husband
were born in England, but have been
in this country several years. Mr..
Booth has made several trips across,
the last n being about seven years
ago. They owned much old English
china, also much rare old jewelry,
which belonged to the parents of
both and which never can be replac-
ed. Their home was one of the neat
est and prettiest in Port Republic.
They have the sympathy of the whole
community. 1t is hoped they will re-
build on the same site. There vas a
small insurance on the house, but
none on the contents.

son, wife of Clark A. Johnson, came

steadily in spite of all that two doc
tors could do, until the end came at s
p. m. Friday. Mrs. Johnson was the
daughter of Mrs. Hannah Adams and
this is the first break in the family of
eight girls. The funeral was held
Tuesday afternoon in st. Paul's M. E.

If he says yes, it he'll do:
Transact the business straight for you.
His promises are all true worth.
Just as solid as the earth.
He's careful to say what he means,
But avoids going to extremes.
He's sure to mean what he says
This day and the following days.
His word he considers is his bond
OF the truth we know he's fond.
He guards the interests of the bank.
For this the officials do him thank.
He is the medium between
Men and means, but is not mean.
Toward charity he doth incline
As the causes fall in line.
A quiet neighbor he proves to be.
He lives on the street named Lee.
He moved over a month ago
From his cottage on Ventnor row.
He and the Mrs. like our town.
Here the houses have more ground.
