the infinite comfort of an approving
conscience.-From an editorial in 1909
No man holds his life for himself
but holds it's splendid gifts as trus-
tea trustee who must come to an
account some day with the Most High

There is glory in defending the right
no matter how goes the tide Of sue

for the plain people, when they cheer
YOU on as they are chcer.ng.-From
ar editorial.
Let no man be ashamed of being in
the minority. Let him be ashamed
only of being in the wrong.-from a
speech delivered in 1904 during the
camraign as Populist candidate for
president.
One motive should be supreme. Let
there he no Republicans, no PopuliSts'
no Democrats, but simply Southern
men who stand together for the com
mon rights of our native land.-from
speech before the cotton convention
in New Orleans in 1905.
To the ordinary man, the rough
iiock of marble, just from the quarry

My heart may be dirt long before

The revolution fear is coming from
Wall street. Through the power Of
money, which can throttle intrinsic
values, and the power of the trust,
which can arbitrarily assess other
mems earnings, and the power of the
corporation, which can tax the profit
cut of every other mans business.
These Wall streeters, if not curbed by
o. revolt of the people at the ballot box,
will work revolution which may rev
er spill n drop of blood, but which will
inevitably change. radically and ruin
ously, the spirit and the purpose of the
democratic republic.-"Wall Street,

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps n prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
Injurious. as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified CO.

and beats anything else all to pieces.
You can get Mulsified at any drug
store, and a few ounces viii last the
whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful Of
Mulsified is all that is required. It
