BRIGHT IDEA WENT WRONG.
An old actor who \v<u- not much
given to the (•ii'.'OL'iih? glas*, says
fhe? Billboard, one evening went to
'line at tlie club with a friend -met
several more, with the nvulr that
late in the evening he was "pretty
mellow." lie left his friends and
started home and said to himself:
"My hov, you're drunk! What are
you going to do about it? I know!
Til go home and read—who ever
''hca.nl about a drunken man read-
ing?" Well, home he went in a cab
--went to the library and com-
menced to read. Mrs. Actor later
appeared on the scene. "What on
earth are you doing?" she ques-
tioned. "Why—er—can't—you see
what I'm doing, my dear: I'm read-
ing." "Heading," said his wife,
scornfully, "what are you reading?"
He looked at the book, but couldn't
see the words, so he said : "That
/book's been in the house for the last
20 years, so if you don't know I'm
not going to tell yon." To this his
wife replied wrathfully: "You old
fool, shut up that valise and come

Think Twice
Before
You Paint Once
Isn't it better to uei the right paint
on the start, than to "wish you had?"
Right paint, properly applied, cannot
go wrong. HAMMAR
PAINT is right. In-
stead oi being already
mixed with oil it con-
tains everything but
oil. You buy the pure
linseed oil from us and
mix it with Hammar
Condensed Paint. Sure
«.f pure oil that way.
You're not, when you
buy the oil mixed in
with the paint in the
can. The oil is t.hu
life of the paint. Un-
less the oil ist fresh
and pure — bettor
throw the paint pot
out. Don't experiment
with "ready mixed"
paint, or labor with paint you have t<i
make by hand from start to finish.
Use Hammar Paint
save money and be happy. One gallon
of raw oil, and one gallon of llammar
will cover (100 square feet of surface,
with two coats—and you can't get it
off without a scraper and main
strength, so don't try. Gallon for gal-
lon, it is the most economical paint
ever sold. Of courso it don't do a
house, store or barn a bit of good in
the can—you've got to add oil to it,
etif it up and get busy with your brush.
Then it does lots of good—preserves
the wood nnd makes people say—
"There's the best painted building I've
seen in a long time." Use HAMMAR
PAINT. Buy it from us. Drop in
tome day when passing our store, and
we trill filioto you how to save 2,r>% on
your paint bill, and our guarantee
hacked by a half million dollars that
the paint will wear for five years.
recent suggestions, however,
that he will get in the race for
governor next year.
The following from last week's
issue of Lockhart Register may
be interesting to the slate makers:
"Railroad Commissioner Col-
quitt is a friend to the farmers
and next year when he is a can-
didate for governor they should
do all in their power to elect him,
and we believe they will give
him their hearty support.''

Roads and Bridges
I have been along several
roads lately. Verv few bridges
I crossed were in good order;
most all had some broken places,
leaving holes where a horse
could get his foot through.
Many roads are not worked which
need it. Its always makes land
sell better and rent better to
have good roads and easier
for teams to pull good loads, and
by george its got to where a
good road is hard to find. Who
will put his road in tip top fix
and work full time and do his
best on his road. jDont all work
on Sunday.

Applied For Beer License.
Judge Kimbell, sitting in |
chambers Monday, heard the!
application of Dave Johnson and)
Dick Robinson (both colored) of j
Mexia for license to sell beer in j
that city. The application was
contested by County Attorney j
Win. Kennedy, who sought to.
show that the applicants were not
law abiding citizens. Quite a
number '.of witnesses were ex-
amined in behalf of the applicants
who testified to their good repu-l
tation as negroes and. who be- S
lieved they would comply with f :f'
the law regulating the sale of I
intoxicating liquors. At the;
request of the county attorney |
the court withheld his opinion in'
the matter [until Wednesday, in;
order to give the state time to !
produce witnesses in opposition
to the petition.- Groesbeck Jo ir-
