FOR CLERK OF DISTRICT COURT
SHE HOLDS THE
CHAMPIONSHIP RECORD

Miss Anna Huber, Texas girl, now
Mrs. Anna Sessions, has made q
record Of which all of her sex may
we'll feel proud. She is now in the
100000 year class. After finishing
course in Byrne Shorthand in the
Tyler Commercial College, Tyler, Tex
as, some years ago, she started out as
a stenographer at $1,000 a week. Her
work was so satisfactory that she
gradually gained promotion until she
became manager of the World Film
corporation at New Orleans. This
position she held for four years. When
the Company recently recognized its
business and opened their big South
western Office at Atlanta, Georgia, this
L. Q. G. girl was elected to the position
OF manager at 100000 a year with
twenty office employees under her
charge and eight travelling statesmen

ing and says sch can't see why any
woman should lose her feminine tact
and adaptability just because she is
a business woman. Mrs Sessions
states with pride that it was her
knowledge of the Byrne Shorthand, OBJ
tanned in her three months stay in the
Tyler Commercial College of Tyler,
Texas, that gave her the basis of her
start into her wonderful business ca
reer. Mrs. Sessions is only one of
many girls who have attended the 7.
G. c. at Tyler that have made wonder
full records in their business careers.
The success of Mrs. Sessions should
be an inspiration to other Southern
girls who have the desire and ambi-
ton to rise in the world; to earn
their own money; win their independ-
ence, and live the lives they would
like to live.

"The only safe recourse open to the

seeds should be planted in coldframes
in November for the production of

frame use soil that is free from dis
ease. Plant the seeds in the cold
frame in drills 6 to s inches apart so
that cultivation may be given. The
plants should not grow rapidly, but
steadily. Sufficient protection form
freezing should be given so as to pro
mote normal growth The little
plants in the cOldframe should have
light and air whenever the weather

With good seeds and proper care

ITO begin with, this is
a true story. And,
l. being true, it is just
one more piece Of evidence
to prove that truth is really
stranger than fiction.
For nearly three years
Mr.. G. D. Horton Of Sing
er, La, had been suffering
from one Of the most ma
lignant and painful diseases
to which the human flesh
is heir. Naturally he had
become morose, despond.
ent. Famous doctors la 4
pronounced his case iilcnr~
able. Obviously he was liv-
ing-only to die.
One day in a fit Of desper-
alton he started to walk out
of town down the railroad
track. He didn't know
where he was going and
didn't care. He walled,
awhile and then, being sei2-
ed with unusually severe
pains, he sat down to resi-.
Shortly thereafter a ragged,
unkempt hobo appeared and
spoke to M n. Horton:
Nv h ats the matter, old
MANI" he said, kindly.
The Bienville Democrat. [volume] (Arcadia, Bienville Parish, La.) 1912-1980, 1919-12-04

Mr.. Horizons trouble had
Teen Brigat's Disease. This
terrible scourge Of the hu-
man race had given him
three years Of pain, irrita-
ton and misery. The hobo's
compound had cured him,
and it had cured many 9TH
crs afflicted with similar
troubles.
Therefore Mr.. Horton de-
cided to iinmortalize this
nameless tramp. He named
his preparation HOBO Kid
fey and Bladder Remedy,
and the business, which is
row located iii Shreveport,
La, is called the H obo
Medicine Mfg. Co.
For nine years, now, this
remedy has been growing
in popularity and fame.
With practically nothing
Tut word testimo-
.,y, the sales Of this remark
able medicine have grown
Il ntil III a n y thousands of
lottles are used every
month, and almost every
mail contains voluntary
testimonials from users.

He never knew just why

confidant. Possibly it was
a kind providence interced-
