BUSINESS MAN
COMMITS SUICIDE.
Reverses Said to Have Caused
Ben McKenzie to End His
Life in Store at Swan
* , Lake Sunday.
Pine Bluff, June 21.— Benja
r min F. McKenzie, a prominent
merchant and lumber man of
Swan Lake, committed suicide
Sunday afternoon about 5:30
o’clock by shooting himself
through the heart with a 38
calibre revolver. Death was in
stantaneous.
McKenzie left no message of
any kind, but business reverses
and troubles are said to have
been the cause of his taking his
own life. He was seemingly in
good health and cheerful spirits
when he walked into his own
store at Swan Lake on Sunday
afternoon.
Two revolvers were lying on a
desk in the store and selecting
one of these he deliberately put
the muzzle to his heart and
pulled the trigger before his
friends knew what he was doing.
The man never uttered a word
and those who saw him were toe
late to prevent the deed.
McKenzie was about 30 years
of age and was married about
three years ago, but there were
no children.
LETTER TO MR. R. H. ASKEW,
NEWPORT, ARK.
Dear Sir: Let’s talk it right
out before folks. There’s nothing
to hide in your business or ours:
if there is we’d better hide our
selves.
We are in trade to make
money; so are you. We make il
by saving our customers' money
so do you. Our object in trade
is to save your customers’ wood
from rotting and iron and stee
and tin from rusting; yours the
same.
We work for thousands of
property owners; you a few. We
can do some things that you
can’t do; we have the facilities.
You can do some things that wre
can’t, you are there. Let us
work together; be faithful to one
another. We can serve our cus
tomers better by working to
gether and being faithful to one
another.
Your dollar, put into our paint,
will paint more feet than in any
other way, and the paint will
last longer. This saves you
money and saves your customers’
money. That’s all there is in
our whole business.
Yours truly,
F. W. Devoe & Co.,
100 New York and Chicago.

Time Tells
The Story.
There is a big difference be
tween the cost of making a first
class sewdng machine, embodying
the best materials and workmap
ship, and one which is made in the
cheapest manner. The buyer of
the cheap machine soon pays the
difference of price in the constant
cost for repairs, to say nothing of
its annoying inefficiency.
