WASHINGTON WILLIAMS I ON A Washington special 1" the News & Observer of the 25 savs: "It is rumored in this city and on very good authority, that ihe Washington Investment Company, a local corporation, will in the near future commence the con struction of a motor car line ex tending from the heart of the city to Washington Heights, a residen tial suburb of this city owned by this company, and from there, on to Cow Head Mineral Springs and on to the town of Williamslon The company hopes to have lliis line completed and in operation within a few months. (Jtiite a number of prominent business men are in lerested in the scheme, and this alone assures the certainty of the project. This line will prove quite a convenience as well, bringing Washington Heights into protni nence and will also encourage the building of hotels, parks,.etc., at Cow Head Miners!

These certificates will lie issued in denominations of SSo and will bear 3 per cent, interest. The person who has SSO hid away can make a good investment by giving it for one of these certificates and at the same time be putting his money in circulation and draw interest on it To keep money in hiding about the home does nobody any good, not even the holder of it, yet it keeps him in constant danger of being robbed, but to put it iu cir culation helps every hotly.

HkU by tha J. C. Ajsr Co.. Lowsll, «m OUR paraurapmer Governor Hughes seems to lie l>oth popular and a problem. The Taft boom lost weight with out taking a bit of exercise. Mr. Torn Johnson seems to be always ready to help the man who he helps himself. From now on an Olkahomati will stand up when he hears the "Star Spangled Banner." An exchange says, "Washington needs better gas." And less of the Congressional brand. 'it is expensive to lie rich," says Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish. Hut what does that matter, if yoti are rich? Speaki-tig of "good and bad trusts, that one 011 our coins seems to have got ill bad with the admin istration. Notwithstanding Mr. Parsons' cheerful view of it, it seems likely that if they had it to do again they id refuse rather than re-fuse. Secretary Taft is coming home so as not to discriminate by visit ing some countries and not all of them. Isn't lie the diplomat. The fact that' Rhode Island has elected a Democratic governor should not ]>ersuade Mr. Bryan that Iu- will carry New Kngland next fall. The Mass.

S- bonds, as al leged, it is strange that he doesn't try harder to run the Government than he appears to do. "There is a vast difference in saving money for a rainy day and 'hoarding'," says the Detroit Free Press. But what's the difference to the man who is unable to do either. I aJ Michigan man sobered up and returned home alter a week's de bauch upon hearing that he was the father of twins. News of that kind will have a sobering effect on any man. So long as the silver quarters and halves hear the motto "In God we trust," the great majority of the American people will have a religious sentiment in their ]*>ckets as well as in their hearts. A man who calls another a liar in the Indian Territory may now « Finding Money is not to Ih- depended upon It you spend all you earn what are yoti goin| to do when sickue*s, accident or lack of employment causes extra ex ]>etise or stops the income?

The lawyers in that part of the country must be sadly in need of a chance to make a living. The public is gravely informed that Secretary Loeb will not desert the President during his term of office. If this dosen't banish the last vestige of the financial flurry we should like to know why? The price of Horse SHow boxes and Stock Exchange seats may de cline, but the $2,000,0 cx) set aside by a Pittsburg political leader to secure a Senatorship indicates no falling off of value in that line. Sixty days in jail was tlie pen alty incurred by a rash young mpn who sent a dynamite bomb to tlie Governor of Colorado. It wou!d be interesting to know what that judge regards as a serious crime. At last report there were .18,215 rural delivery routes in operation in the U. S., all the growth of a few years.

"Where to find Bourke Cochran is the eternal puzzle in our politic il game," says the Nashville Ten nessean.

Clements Dead. Mrs. Helen J. Clements, relict of the late Captain I„ 1,. Clements, passed away Wednesday night at 11:40 o'clock, at the home of Uer daughter, Mrs. John D. Simpson. She was 74 years old, and leaves only one child, Mrs. Simpson. -Mrs.-Clements had been in de clining health for a long time, and for the last month or more had had several spells. She was up Monday and fell severely injuring her tup, uVthe shock of which and the ravages of age she succumbed Wednesday night. Mrs. Clements was a Miss Bagley and was born and raised 011 the "Bagley" place in the old house that stood within 100 yards of the place where sh? died. After a long and useful life she died'as she- had lived, honored, trusted and loved. She reared her own monument while she lived in the hearts of all who knew her, Her life was completed if work all done and well done constitutes completion. Her Christian life was beautiful from its beginning to its close, and through all the vicis situdes and sorrows that .she met in the way, 1 her faith in God never wavered. But she has left us and today Ihe autumn leave* will fall upon another grave that hides from our sight all that iv mortal of a true and uoble woman. The funeral services will be con ducted this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from the residence of Mr, John D. Simpson, by the Reverend C. 1,.

I'm an "undertaker and want them all dead!" Lipplueott's Ganderbone's December Forecast (Copyright 1907 by C. 11. Rieth.) December of the drifting snow And yule-log blazing bright; December, when the cold winds blow- Across the fields of white; When winter's ring is in the ground And the nights are clear and still, And .he boys go belly-buster down The slick and shiny hill. December of the Christmas tree And childhood's brightest dreatn ; December of the ecstacy Of hallowed Christmas e'en; When the last sweet lullaby is sung And children's whispers reuse, And the wee sweet stockings all arr strung Along the mantle piece. December of the drum and horn And bundles slyly hid; Decemlier of the one great morn Of mornings for a kid; When the chimes of sweet and mellow bells Are welcoming the dawn, And the house rocks with tile merry yells Of kids with nighties on. I)e 'ernlier was the ninth month in the old Roman calendar, and its name is from decemf ten). When Julius Ceaser liecaine Big Stick ol the empire, the month contained but twenty-nine days. He added two more—one more to make read) for Christmas, and another to re cover from it. Christmas gifts originated with the Greeks, heuce the saying, "Beware of the Gffceks bearing gifts." Santa Clans was invented by the toy manufacturers of Neurembitrg, Germany, where the Teddy-Bears came from. The motto for this month will lie, "Shut the door!" Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Bryan will lie the leading presidential candidates, and prohi bition will continue the burning issue. The liquor interests will build walls around Peoria, 111. St. Louis, Louisville and Milwaukee, and their war balloon will make daily observations of the movements of Mrs. Nation. The Anti Saloon League has con sented to let the Winter Solstice of this year begin at 7 p. 111. on the 3/d; but tliwre must be no drinking, and every one must be in by the Curfew. The 21st will be the shortest day in the year. This will l>e on Satur day, and if you are at church next day and stay for the sermon, you will notice that the 22l is much longer, ' The moon will be full on the 1 • jth and the sign of the zodiac for the month will be Capricorn us the Goat. This will make butter go up, and send kids to Sunday school. The old mill jxmd will freeze again, And every one will sk.ite; The mollycoddle, modest swain, Will thither go with Kate She'll slip in such a way that she Will see a brilliant star, And he will deeply blush to see Mow long her stockings are. The money scare will quiet down—unhappy circumstance — and motley will frequent again the pocket* of our pants. The new gold coins they're making now without "In God We Trust," will turn up iu,the hat at churh as prized as any dust. The scrip we -have will he retired, and leal dough will look good, but the old subscriber will insist 011 paying up with wood On the id, Speaker Cannon will assemble at Washington, where he will re-elect himself and resume the enactment of law in the presence of the Democratic minority and other onlookers. The final edition of the President's message will be Wall street will lie given another physic; and it will lie officially de clared that this country cannot ex ist half capital and half water. Mr. Fairbank will take refuge in the dignity of the Senate from his cocktail persecutor*, and several new members will be taken into that exclusive club of multi million aire#. Congress assembled will take up great public questions like the need for a new federal l*fti!d ing at Podunk. and Coyota Centre; the growiug demand for a more elastic currency* and why nobody will stay in the army at the gener ous inducement of f t.t 00 a month and found- dead in the Philippines. Persons born under the sign of Capricornus the Goat are great or ators, thinkers and teachers; conscious and not meddlesome :good story tellers, eat too much, have style and pride, talk too much' are distrustful, and can keep a secret (if males). They are selfish, and never get the hot end of it in an ex change'of Christmas gifts They continue to hang up their stockings when it is a hardship upon others to fill them. Girls born in Capri cornus are hard to win, generally preferring a parrot U> the stork.

The sleigh will jingle U P the road the lilies around the whip, and George and Nellie in the rolies, will love's own honey sip.
