their insurance with companies

Mrs. Bartlett also took a rap
at rouge and cosmetica — she
has far* preparations which ax*
hundreds of times better;
“Rouge is perfectly abomina-
ble, decidedly so. for God has
given us a more suitable make
up that we can ever buy, If both
the young and old will but take

The civilization of 1*22 is a
long way ahead of ths civiliza-
tion of 1877, they say today—
but “they" didn’t ive in 1877 as
Mrs. Bartlett did. and she thinks
1923 is living "too fast for its
own good."

BARTLETT, Texas, Sept 22—
“Al th* new and wondertul in-
ventipns that I have seen for the
last 70 years are indeed a bless-
ing. but the people today are try-
lag to 11 v* too fast for their own
good. I am not trying to criti-
cise, for I think th* mothers and
fathers are as much to blame as
any one for the fast lving of th*
young set today."
That is th* opinion of Mrs. M.
A. Bartlett of Bartlett, who dur-
ing her Ufo time ha* seen this
town grow out of a bare prairie
of waving grass. Mrs Bartlett,
who is now 78, It one of ths old-
••t and most noted citizens of
ythfa part at the country. She ia
the widow of John T. Barlett,
who di*d in 1904 and for whom
Bartiett was named.
Worth Half Million.
Just conedering ths cempara-
tively simply H*s that Mrs Bart-
lett Isa ds today you would never
think that she is worth some
half a minion dolars in actual
property, and 1s president ef one
of the leading banks of Wilham-
son county. Perhaps ths sterner
stuff which led her co coms with
her husband to Texas in 1877,
has remained to keep her in her
habits of her younger days.
Whatever it ia. eh* still has that
spirit of comradeship which was
so characterist c of early pioneers
—none of your modern fast Mv-
ing for Mrs. M. A. Bartlett, mni
