Without a single note to write a story from, 1t looks like discourag- ing prospect for my readers, but l will do my best, though I look for ward to a failure this week. I dream ed last night that l smashed my new four and one-half dollar fountain pen from one end to the other. I did not know 1t until 1 took 1t out of my pocket, in the presence of Mir. Harper, to write with. Mir. Harper expressed his sympathy for me and was very sorry. Don't think I am extravagant for possessing such a nice pen, because it is a present to me from the Oliver Typewriting Go, to show their appreciation of my completing my payments at three dollars a month of $57, for one of their machines. I have found this a very pleasant company to deal with and though l have had the machine over a year and used it a lot, 1t has never given me any trouble.

A voice we loved is still,

A voice we loved is still, A place is vacant in our home That never can be filled. Thou art gone, our darling Sophia, Never more canst thou return. You will sleep a peaceful slumber Til the resurrection morn. We have lost our darling Sophia, She has bid us all adieu, She has gone to be with Jesus, And her form is lost in view. Over wonder in the graveyard There is a new-made mound, And our dear Sophia is sleeping In the cold and silent ground. Weep not, dear father and mother,
 for she is gone;
 We all must soon follow on, And breathe our last, our latest
 breath,
 Then close our eyes, sink down in
 death. 'Tis true, it is hard to give Sophia up, The one you dearly love. But God was pleased to call Sophia
 home,
 To dwell with him above. Dear mother wept, and father, too, But still Sophia had to go. She left this world of wickedness To come back never more. Now our hearts are sad and lonely, Since our darling Sophia has gone, But we know she's gone to heaven, Yes, she's singing around the
 throne. Oh, how we miss you, Sophia, Your sweet and loving smile; But we know you are among the an-
 gels,
 And we'll see you after while.

 On November l3, 1920, the death angel visited the home of MT. and Mrs. Will Kindly and took from them their darling baby, Sophia. She was three months and ten days old. She leaves a father, mother, one brother and one sister, and host of rela- tives and friends to mourn her loss. Sophia was sick only two days.
 All was done for her that loving hands could do. Sophia is not dead, but only sleeping in the arms of Jesus. We can only say to the be- reaved, be prepared to meet your darling baby that is gone on before.
 She was laid to rest in Landmark cemetery November 14.

The Arkqnsas Broom KorkS.

The Arkqnsas Broom Works.
 Before the fair I harvested my broom corn crop and took it to the Arkansas Broom Works on East Sixth street, to have 1t made up on the shares, but the company did not make brooms that way. After lit tle persuasion the manager consent ed to make it up for me and I got six brooms from 1t in time for the first fair. When l asked the price was informed that the free advertis- ing the company would receive from my exhibiting them at the community fairs would be sufficient remunera- ton. l exhibited them at all the fairs except Jacksonville, and would have exhibited them there, but the agents did not bring them out with my other stuff. There was not much need of exhibiting them at Jackson vile, because there are factories near and broom corn is a side crop with many of the farmers. Frank White
 -one of our subscribers-makes brooms for himself and a few of his neighbors. He will be located on C. (. Cox's home farm next year. while Mir. Cox intends to move onto Mrs. Cox's farm

4 Depot Waife.

Being somewhat of an orphan and a waffle myself, all waifes receive my sympathy. Coming home from Little Rock Monday I had to wait at Bigelow until about 12 o'clock that night for a train. There was a yellow kitten in the depot, with the white spots on her discolored with coal dust. Her hair was rough look ing and l mentally pronounced her unfit for human companionship. As l waited for my train her loneliness appealed to me, especially as she walked up to me. l spoke to her and she began to pay more attention to me, and finally she concluded to accept my invitation and got up in my lap. My first thought was that | would get covered with fleas, and then l decided that l ought not to expect such reward for a kindly act. Then she began to play with me and would climb up one arm, walk around my neck and down the other arm, and then finally she climber upon the top of my head, balancing herself carefully until she found out that 1 was not going to shake her off, when she coiled down on my cap, began to enjoy my com pany and, l suppose, to dream of her old home, where she must have been the pet of the family.
