J. A. Baird left Thursday night
of last week for Fort Worth to
have an operation performed on
his tonsils. Mr. Bairds life was
despaired of for a long time at
Marlin, but we are glad to know
that he is now on the road to re-
covery.
That
he is an artist
with the piano is evident the
moment he touches the keys. He
has four pianos and other instru-
ments here, and has three more
pianos, one of them a grand, on
the road. Our town was already
well supplied with music teach-
ers, and particulary fortunate
are we in having Miss Smith in
the school. But the conservatory
creates a efferent set of pupils
and will aflB much to the music
possibilities of the town.
J. C. Crabb is here from Mills

and Indians were plentiful.

day night from a visit to his

crops are good in Mississippi.
We learn that Mr. Opela of
Marys Creek community has sold
his farm to Tom Taliaferro for
$20 per acre.

Kerr For Clerk
In the race for district and
county clerk, which race is fresh
in our memories, A. D. Kerr ran
hard against two good men and
came out second best at the final
goal post. Not that he wtta not
a strong man, but that another
man was stronger caused his de-
feat. Now since the two offices
have been separated Mr. Kerr
believes that he is entitled to the
office of district clerk. However,
as that office is an elective one
he is perfectly willing to put his
case before the people of Baylor
county, fully believing they will
do the right thing by him.
Mr. Kerr needs no introduction
to our readers, having introduced
himself to most voters in the re-
cent campaign. And if you know
him as we do you can say naught
but good of him. He has lived
many years in the county, for a
larger part of that time having
been county surveyor. He has
proved himself a citizen worthy
of trust. Moreover, in all his
work he has shown himself to be
capable of performing whatever
duties he might undertake,
several terms of teaching in
earlier days fitted him with a
good education and since then
he has had ample experience
with book work to make him ef-
ficient in the office of district
clerk. He requests us to say
that he said nothing about his
opponents in the recent cam-
paign and has no malice in his
heart for any man in Baylor
county. We would commend
Mr. Kerr to the voter in Novem-
ber election.
Remember that you can al
ways get lunch and hot coffee at
the railroad eating house at the
G. T. & W. depot. tf.

The Pure Cotton Mattress
Many of the so-called cotton mattresses arc
not made of pure cotton, but linters—the scrap-
ings and dirt which must be removed from cot-
ton before it is marketable. Linters are un-
clean, Inelastic, unfit for a bed. The
is made only of pure long-fibre cotton, so
springy, so elastic that it holds its shape
naturally and without tufting or tying. It is
the most comfortable mattress made at
price, yet sells well within the reach of
body. It is so different that it will pay
