Rooth and Lincoln's Death Mask.

A touching Renaissance Of the great
actor Edwin Booth Is told in connec-
ton with Lawrence Hutton's collection
Of death masks in talks In a Libra
ry," recorded by Isabel Moore:
Camt's was one Of the two masks in
the collection which affected Booth
most. The other, naturally enough, but
III a very, very different way, was that
Of Lincoln l shall never forget the
first time he saw the Lincoln mask.
He asked innocently enough whose 1t
was, and when I told him, my heart
for moment stopping to beat, he rose
from his seat, took it in his hands and
looked at it for q long time without a
word. What It meant to him we can
imagine The whole awful, awful bust
ness came back to him-the mad, dead
brother; the martyred, murdered presi,
dent. Still, without word, he put 1t
back in it's place, and it seemed to me
as he did SO that he kissed it with his
fingers. have seen him in that room
look at 1t silently over his pipe many
and many time But he never touch
ed it or spoke of it again, even to me
What he thought Of it heaven only
knows

DEATH OF HON. H. w. OGDEN.

This community was deeply moved and grleved
Sunday afternoon to learn of the death OF Hon..
H. w. Ogden, which occurred at his home on Cat
Island plantation, three miles south of Benton His
death was sudden and resulted from congestlve
chill. He was SO years of age. He was native OF
Virginia, but had made this parish his home ever
since the close of the
In his death the community loses good and
useful citizen, his State and party an unltrlng ana
Jealous worker, his neghbors true friend and
his children kind and considerate parent and
guardian. Great is the grief in their hearts; time
alone can heal the wounds Great is the loss to our
community, and there is no one to take his place.
Mr. Ogden was Confederate soldier of daring
and of unchalenged record. He volunteered from
the State of Missouri, serving throughout nearly
the entire period of the war. He was prominent in
politics, having filled many offices of trust in our
midst. He was member of the Executive Com
mittee from this ward and served as its Chairman.
He was appointed Tax Collector by Gov. Nickolls;
elected member of the Constitutional Convention
of 1879; elected member of the House of Repre-
sentatives of this State in 1872 was elected in
1883, and also served its Speaker. He was
elected member of Congress from this district in
1896 to fill an unexpred term made vacant by the
elevation of Congressman N. G. Blanchard to the
United States Senate, and was reelected IN 1898
for full term of two years.
He was member of Cypress Lodge No. ~, +.
and A. NJ and twice filled the position of Worship
full Master of the Lodge. He was also at one time
District Deputy Grand Master for this district.
He was laid to rest Monday in the old Cottage
Grove Cemetery, Rev. w. A. Zeger conducting the
funeral ceremony later the Masonic burial service
taking place over the open grave, being conducted
by Worshipful Master E. M Laughlin.
He leaves sister-Miss Louie Ogden-and four
children-Mrs. j. C. Dickson, Misses Mary Scott
and Louie and Mr.. Frank Ogden. The writer's
heart goes out in sympathy toward the grieved
ones. May they find comfort in the thought that
with him earth's over that he has gone to
meet loved wife and to reap just reward in that
home from whence no traveller returns.

Glass and Sunlight.

Common clear glass left exposed In
certain desert regions Of the earth soon
changes greatly in appearance and ac-
quires color, sometimes rose purple
and sometimes amethyst. This change
has been attributed by some observers
to alkaline soils, but others maintain
that such changes occur where there Is
no alkaH and that it must be due to
the great activity of the actinic rays OF
the sun where the atmosphere is very
clear.

Advertising
.HERE ARE TWO WAYS
TO advertise-in reliable
newspapers and the other

">HEhE AXE IWO WA 1S
TO advertise-in reliable
= newspapers and the other
way. The best way and the way
to be assured of results is through
the columns of the above-the-
average country weekly. A dollar
spent in such a way brings ten
times the results it would if spent
in advertising in a daily news
paper. Why?
4 Because the daily's rates are
usually from twice to four times
that of the weekly.
4 Because the daily is the paper
of day, while the weekly is read
(by each member of the family
from the day of it's publication
until Sunday night and then care
fully laid away for reference.
4 Because the columns of the
daily belittle it's customers, read
ers and friends, while the weekly
extols them.
4 Because the city editor is a
stranger in the midst of his read
ers, while the country editor is
J one of his community-he mixes
} and mingles with his readers and
knows them all.
4 Because readers have learned to
discredit much that appears in the
sensational daily, while they have
, the same faith in the country
} weekly that they do in their best
friends.
4 There are other good "reasons
|, why" but space forbids.
7 Wecall especial attention to our
Open-Space Contract
which permits of the annual adj
vertiser using as many or as few
inches of space as he likes in any
particular issue. In other words,
a large ad. can be run when the
advertiser feels so-inclined and
smaller one at other times. No
additional charge is made for

when changes are made oftener
than once a month.
