will have them followed. Why the
man is So years old. that is old enough
to be her grandfather"
The fact that the bridegroom Is
wealthy, cousin, as he says, of Mayor
Harrison, and himself politician of
prominence, does not reconcile the
mother to the marriage performed
without her knowledge. The pair met
in Buffalo during the exposition. Mrs.
Powell learned Selden was a widower
and grandfather. Selden arrived in
the city yesterday and met the girl IN
the home of woman friend, procured
a license and was married in two
hours, and left for the South. A dis
patch from Montgomery tonight says.
Capt William L. Selden is connected
with the State commission of agricnl-
ture He is a member of a prominent
Alabama family, and for many years
has figured in Alabama politics."

A Costly Campaign.

1t is estimated that it will cost
the man who is elected governor oi
Mississippi this year not less than
$4,000 in campaign expenses. The
gubernatorial candidates are spend
ing very little money with the State
press. and there is much complaint
among the editors, who think That
the candidates should publish Off
cial announcements in each county.
The editors are doomed to disap-
pointment, not only as concerns the
candidates for governor, but aspir-
ants for other State offices, for few
of the men in the field are finan-
ciallyI able to incur this expense.
So far as the gubernatorial candi-
dates are concerned, most Of them
are fairly we'll supplied with this
worlds goods, and the expenses. Of
the campaign will not be a heavy
burden.

Stave manufacturers in Mississip-
pi are worried over the rapidly di-
minishing supply of white oak TIM
Der, and they are now being forced
TO haul the logs long distances 10
railroad points or nayigablc streams,
where they can be shipped to the
points of manufacture. The white
oak timber along the water courses
in the State has been thinned out in
many places for distances of more
than twenty-five miles from the
paths of transportation, and the
price of staye timber has been more
than doubled during the past few
years. Slaves which sold at $3.50
per mill--1,200 stayes-ten years
ago, are now hard to get at prices
ranging form $3.50 10 1926, and the
indications are that there will be an
other sharp advance in prices dur
ing the present winter. The supply
of white oak is becoming especially
scarce in the Pearl river valley, and
the demand was never greater than
now

CALCIUM SALTS CURE.
DIR. jacques Loeb Thinks 1t Dead Shot
for St. yituteDance and Other
Nervous Diseases.

Chicago, Feb. 22.-Dr. Jacques Loeb
has discovered that muscular and ner-
vous diseases, such as st. Yitus' dance,
paralysis agitans, locomotor ataxia
and sleeplessness, can be cured by ad-
ministering calcium salts. that is, such
salts as are found in well water and
many foods. Announcement OF this
discovery in scientific research by the
former head of the department OF
physiology at the University Of Chi
cago has been made. In a recent pub
lication issued by the University OF
Chicago Press, DIR. Loeb concludes
that the presence of calcium salts in
the muscles is what prevents their
twitching; that practically all ner.
vous diseases are caused by the alb.
sence of the calcium, and, therefore,
to restore pormal conditions and effect
a cure, the remedy is to dose with cal
cium salts.
