The reason lots of people are
not happy may be because they
are not prepared for happiness;
they have achieved too easily, or
too soon, have not had the neces-
sary trials to make them appre-
ciate those blessings which they
have, or have not had that expe-
rience which teaches that con-
tentment is a* much a matter cf
mind as of matter.
Tcix time has arrived again and
the tax rolls are being completed

Some men are so fond of atten-

blow off just to let somebody
chase it for them.
Most troubles are like home-

A dollar isn't a bit more par-
ticular about who earns it than
it is about who saves it.
A professional optimist is a
man who thinks you ought to
smiie and forget it when h e
makes a mistake which costs you
something.
Eliza says if every married man
had to wear a license number
same as an automobile they'd be
less skidding.
A chronic kicker, like the mule,
finds lots of attention is paid to
his heels but little to his head.

We produce satisfactory results

same subjects as given with a
personal course, and with the
privilege of entering College for
personal work at any stage of
your course, without paying ad-
ditional tuition.^In other words,
the Correspondence instruction is
absolutely free if you enter for
personal work. Many find it
of great advantage even when
they intend to take personal
work later, to first enroll for the
course by correspondence and
utilize their spare time until they
are ready to enter, since it costs
nothing extra. This often saves
two or more months' time and
board in school on personal work,
and enables them to accept a
good position that much earlier.
We give free use of a standard

Cotton Shipments From Rusk.
There had been shipped from
Rusk over the Cotton Belt up
until Thursday of this week 1410
bales of cotton. All of this is of
this year's crop. Last year the
total shipments amounted to 1496
bales and much of it, perhaps 400
bales, had been held over from
the previous year. This year the
prices received mean nearly twice
as much money for the crop so
far marketed as was received for
last year's crop. There will also
be quite a little more come to
market which will make the total
exceed more than twice what was
received last season.
You Just Can't Please 'em.

lasted. Another car is expected
in about ten days.

Sunday visiting with his son, R.

that another girl had caught his
eye. He returned Monday.
Public Weigher Fred Goodson
has passed the 1800-bale mark in
cotton weighing at the local yard.
He is not going to reach the
mark he had at first expected
when.the season opened but it is
quite likely to more that double
last year's sales on last year's
cotton.
Major Chas. Kerr is another of
the popular young men who is

expressed himself to us on the sub-
ject yet but we understand he
isn't overly enthusiastic about it.
