“POOR BOOB”
Deals with the re-making of a
timid clerk who has come to New
York from the country and has
never learned the lesson that to
succeed in life you have to hit
the line hard, as well as be faith-
ful to your job. Cheerful, sin-
cere, truthful; moulder of public
opinions.

dispatches will give results all in Honey Grove and attending
school here, his mother being ill
in Western Texas. The little boy
grew ill suddenly Friday night,
and all efforts for his relief were
in vain. He continued to suffer
until Saturday evening, when
death came to end his suffering.
His parents were notified and
left immediately for Honey

and their little boy was dead.
With these stricken parents and

A sack of meal found its way
to the Signal office this week,
bearing the compliments of the
new corn and wheat mill of C. H.
Wood & Company, at Ladonia.
That this new mill is making a
fine grade of meal we can and do
cheerfully testify. The bread
this meal makes has all the life
and delightful flavor of the meal
made by the water mills of good
old Tennessee in the long ago. It
makes mush that is a gustatory
delight and it thickens soup to
the taste of a queen. Messrs.
Wood & Company have an ad in
today’s paper about their new
Ladonia corn and wheat mill.
Read it.
J. M. Williamson and daugh-
