Mr. Candidate for the legisla-
ture, how many laws do you
think you can have repealed in
the event you are elected?
What do you think of Belton
being an "export" town. The
Belton Roller Mill has succeeded
in closing a contract for their
most excellent product to Cuban
parties. Do you use the Belton
fiour?
It would be a most inspiring
thought to contemplate the farm-
ers and merchants giving their
attention to business affairs in-
stead of arguing politics, in which
the only fellows directly inter-
ested are those who are trying to
wedge their way to the pie coun-
ter.
We see where a physician will
not prescribe but one ounce of
whiskey for any snakebite. The
doctor is right in thjs conclusion
as so many snake bites are only
imaginary and then there are
16 drams in one ounce which
is enough for any one man at one
time.
Baking
Powder, being in-
dispensable in the prepara-
tion of our daily food, must
be free from noxious ingredients
Complete parity and whole*

tioned characteristics of

amusing contest in which Mrs. A.
D. Potts was the most successful in
recognizing, from photographs ta-
ken in early childhood, the greatest
number of the members.
Mrs. A. J. Embree contributed
an entertaining article upon "Paint-
ers of Children." Another appre-
ciated feature of the program was
a letter to the Club from one of its
honary members, Mrs. Elisha Em-
bree, who is sojourning in Bisbee,
Arizona. She wrote of the club
life in the town and then gave a
graphic description of the pictures
which nature so lavishly displays
in the sky, and cloud and mountain
scenery of this rugged mining town.
After a discussion of the work for
next year and the appointment of
the program committee, the club
adjourned to meet with Miss Lou-
lie Meyer.
Coupons Hidden.
In this issue of the Democrat
there is a coupon for 25 votes.
It may be found somewhere, but
it is equal to a Chinese puzzle to
find it. No one knows where it
is other than the editor, and he
would have to hunt awhile to
findit. Thiswillbethelastcoupon
to appear in the Democrat before
the final count is made on the
24th. In the next issue of this
paper the committee which will
make the count and award the
prizes will be announced. A
careful perusal of the columns of
the Democrat for next week
will be of interest to their friends
as a final announcement will be
made in that issue.
SOCIAL EVENTS

That Belton will soon have free
mail delivery, there is no doubt.
Postmaster Guffey says we are
entitled to it from every stand
point, and the Commercial Club
last Friday night appointed the
necessary committee to push it
to a reality. It may be expected
by July 1, of this good year of
our Lord, 1908.
This is the time of the year for
Belton merchants to get togeth-
er and plan for a systematic cam-
paign for business during the
good old summer time. There
are many sections from which
Belton doesnot get enough trade.
By a united effort on the part of
our merchants a much greater
volume of retail trade can be se-
cured. Why not start early in
the year.
Just how soon the Katy will
give us back our night train, we
don't know, but every day of this
delay is costing the Katy some
business. This past week two
nice shipments were routed over
the Santa Pe. One of these par-
ties remarked that just bo long
as the present schedule remained
he intended to route his freight
over the other road. This is to
be regretted, but it is a natural
result.
Hon. John L. Peeler, of Aus-
tin, in making his formal an-
nouncement for the state Senate,
hits the nail square on the head
the first lick in the following lan-
guage: "I know of few measures,
if any, to advocate. It occurs to
me that we have about laws
enough. If some we have were
repealed and others straightened
out, we would probably be better
off. I think people who are gov
erned the least are governed the
best."
Belton has placed two candi
dates In the field for Representa-
tive. Mr. Patterson for Class A
and Mr. Savage for Class B. Of
oounse Temple has the same priv
liege, but so far no one In Tern
pie seems to be aspiring for eith
er A or B.—Temple Mirror.
Beg pardon, brother, Belton
has placed no one In the race for
the legislature or any other off-
ice. There are two gentlemen
who live in Belton aspiring to
this honor, but no act on the part
of the city of Belton is responsi-
ble for their candidacy.
Put your thinking cap on and
study out some plan by which
Belton may be enabled to give
some kind of an exhibition next
fall. ====5^^

Port Worth m ust be a delight-
ful place in which to commit
suicide. Three more victims
there within thirty-six hours.
Hyde, Mary Pettus Thomas, Mil-
dred Mihills and Isabel Thomas.
There were the usual opening
exercises, the Lord's Prayer and
the singing of America. The
Plymouth settlement was the
subject for roll call. This was
followed by an instructive paper
on "The Puritans of New En-
gland" by Mrs. Pattie Seabaugh.
The chapter decided to give a re-
ception at the home of Mrs. A.
D. Potts on February 28. The
next regular meeting will be held
with Mrs. J. H. James on March
6th. The gracious hostesses
served an appetizing menu of
chicken salad, olives, wafers,
Tennessee beaten buscuit, cof-
fee and stuffed dates. Those
present were Mesdames, L. V.
Burford, Fred Guffy, J. H. James
J. Z. Miller; A. D. Potts, Pattie
Seabaugh, B. R. Stocking, S. M.
Ray, Joel F. Elliott, C. E Hillyer,
Julia Leftwick. Misses Milner
Baker, Anabel Burford, (Martha
Dowell, Anjiip. James, Ora Oster-
hout, Carrie Saunders, Lillian
Wells and Cora Ray.
One of the most elegant enter-
tainments recently chronicled was
that given by Mrs. P. T- Morey on
Friday afternoon, with the mem-
bers of the Belton-Temple 42 Club
as guests.
Tables were arranged for the fol-
lowing: from Temple; Mesdames
Huling P. Robertson, Crawford,
Pearce, Bentley, Willcox, Sayre,
Martin, Meisner, Ginnuth, Banks,
F. F. Downs. From Belton; Mes-
dames A. D. Potts, C. C. Hammer-
smith, Furman, J. Z. Miller Sr.,
George Tyler, Yarrell Jr., Denny,
S. S. Walker, Stocking, Metcalf,
Guffey, J. H. Bloomer- After nine
progressions, the first prize, a cut
glass violet vase was awarded to
Mrs. Crawford for high score, while
Mrs. Guffey received a pretty Gib-
son picture for low score. Mrs.
Bentley was given the consolation
favor, a rookwood vase.
The hostess, assisted by Miss
Vera Morey, served the following
tempting menu: Oyster cocktail,
celery, pickles, nut sandwiches,
moose, devils and angel cake, cof-
fee, salted nuts."1
The next meeting of the club
will be at the home of Mrs. G. E.
McCelvey in Temple.
Foster's Forecasts.
Washington, Feb. 8—Last bul-
etin gave forecasts of disturb-
ance to cross continent Feb 7 to
11, warm wave Feb, G to 10, cool
w^ive Feb. 9 to 13. Next dis-
turbance will reach Pacific coast
about Feb. 13, cross Pacific slope
by close of Feb. 14, great central
valleys Feb. 15 to 17, Eastern
States Feb. 18. Warm wave will
cross Pacific slope about Peb. 13,
great central valleys Feb. 15,
Eastern States Feb. 17. Cool
wave will cross Pacific slope
about Feb. 16, great central val-
leys Feb. 18, Eastern States
Peb. 20.
This disturbance will bring
a short wave ot high tempera-
ture and, as before and after, it
will be very cold, the warm wave
will be a great temporary relief.
Severe cold will follow the warm
wave and a full week of very
cold weather may be expected.
Heavy rains, followed by heavy
snows, will come in after the
warm wave.
Prom February 15 to 18 dan-
gerous storms will occur, and
Feb. 19 to 21 a severe cold wave
and blizzard. All these dates
that are not located have refer-
ence to meridian 90, and the
weather events may be expected
one day earlier for every 500
miles west of that line and as
much later east of it.
February will be a month of
great weather extremes. Se-
vere storms, including a severe
cold wave, are on the program
for immediately following Feb-
ruary 8. That will be a severe
cold wave in northern states,
but it1 will not reach as far south
in the middle southwest as it
will in the southeast.
February, after the 10th, will
average much colder than before,
and precipitation will largely in-
crease toward last part of the
month. The trend of February
temperatures was calculated to
be from first to last days of the
month. This, of course, is con-
trary to the usual or normal tem-
peratures of the month.

Dr. and Mrs. W. A. Wilson en-
tertained most delightfully on
last Wednesday evening at their
attractive home on the college
campus. The members of the
facully of Baylor College were
the guests of the occasion. Dur-
ing the evening the gifted artists
Dr. Hans Harthan and Mr. Geo.
E. Simpson gave beautiful piano
solos to which the charm of the
sweet toned baby-grand piano
was added. Miss Grace Giescke
whose music always pleases also
gave several numbers on the
violin. Miss Bonita Wells who
has recently returned from New
York City gave a breif resume of
her studies while there and an
interesting accountof the musical
programs and attractions which
she attended in the eity. Dainty
refreshments of chicken salad,
wafers, olives, cake and gelatine
with candied cherries, pecans and
whipped cream wereserved. Dr.
and Mrs. Wilson were charming-
ly assisted in entertaining fcy

son and their neice, Miss Ethel
Smith of Illinois.
Mrs. Lou Cook and Mrs. W. C.

J. S. Agee presided. At the con-
clusion of the business session,
the members engaged in an in-
teresting contest, "a tour of the
United States in three minutes,"
in which the names of the states
were to be written in full in that
brief space of time. Mrs. Hiatt
and Mrs. Agee were successful
in writing correctly the greatest
number of states and in drawing
to decide the winner, the prize, a
beautiful China tea set, fell to
Mrs. Hiatt. Delicious refresh-
ments in two courses were served
and the afternoon proved most
enjoyable in every respect. The
next meeting will be held with
Mrs. A. L.Curtis. Thefollowing

ered while sandwiches and ham-
