Vardaman. he appeared and entered upon a reply to Governor Blanchard's advocacy of general control of quarantine by the federal government The government, he said, might have the right to control the shipment of goods from one state into another, but upon arrival at destination they wouldLbe under control of the state into which they had been brought. The same would be true of persons travelling under such conditions, and would lead to the old shotgun policy. He repeated his desire for uniform legislation on health matters by the various states. He de- voted half an hour mainly to repetition of arguments he advanced previously.
 Calls for Governor Montague were made but he declined to respond owing to the lateness of the hour. and the conferences adjourned at 11:30 o'clock until g a. m. tomorrow morning.

BOARD IF TRADE
 IN DEAD EARNEST Ready to Put Vulcan on His Feet at BeSsemer WAITS FOR A DECISION If Commercial Club Releases Him, His Debts Will Be Paid and He Will
 Be Erected In That
 City.
WAITS FOR A DECISION

Bessemer, November 9.-(Special.)- "some people, especially at Birmingham are inclined to look upon the offer of the Bessemer board of trade to pay Vulcan IS
 debts and remove him to this city as
 hluff. and not as an offer made in good
 faith" said a prominent business man or Bessemer today.
 "The great majority of the citizens or
 Birmingham, however, who know the si'- uation understand the spirit in which the
 offer is made and appreciate the puplc
 spiritedness of the proposition.
 "I am in a. position to know that the
 proposition is made in good falth' anu
 that the Bessemer board of trade stands
 ready to make good in case the Commer-
 cial club of Birmingham accepts the terms
 of the offer
 "rhe Commercial club has so far failed to raise the indebtedness hanging over the
 historical statue which represented this
 district at the St. Louis worlds fair, and
 is allowing the proud structure to rust
 and canker with neglect in the wilderness on Red mountain. For nearly year ne
 has been neglected in this way, and the
 people of Bessemer feel that If the people of Birmingham propose to continue this neglect that they should release him to some one who would care for him and raise him where he would advertise the
 mineral wealth of the district.
 'Bessemer is d part of the great district he represented at the worlds fair, ana standing at the foot of Nineteenth street in this city he would be as much 8
 credit to the district as on Red mountain near Birmingham.
 "I believe that every reasonable man Tn the Birmingham district will agree with the Bessemer board of trade that some- thing should be done with Vulcan, and that if the Commercial club proposes to continue It's neglect of him he should be released to the Bessemer organization which would raise his proud head from the slough of despond into which he has been cast, and set hinf up as he should stand, overlooking the great mineral dis
 trict he so proudly represents"
 Notes and Personals.
 MT. Charles Sullivan and Miss Frances Earnest were quietly married at the home of Mrs. Robertson in Jonesboro last night. The ceremony was performed by | the Rev. Mr. Holmes. Both parties arc well known in Bessemer where they have resided for some time, and their marriage was great surprise to their many friends as 1t had not been previously announced. The argument in the injunction suit of J. L. Pike and others against the county 1 board of education was continued in the | Birmingham city court this afternoon to November IS. The petition seeks to pre- vent the county board of education from | paying the salary of Prof. B. F. Crump
 superintendent of the Brighton public
 schools, from the state school funds, on
 the ground that he was illegally elected to the position.

A Wardrobe Mistake

The average modiste has seasons when
It seems impossible for her to get time
20 sleep or cat. so impatient are her
patrons for their garments, and then It IS
that she secures all available help, and
makes every moment count, says The
Pilgrim. While Mrs. Anna White does not
have impatient patrons TO face, there is
a time limit as TO when the product OF
her brain must be in readiness. for she Is
the designer OF the wardrobe for the
Barnum and Bailey Circus. For the past
thirty-three years Mrs. White has di-
rected the fashoning of all the trappings
for the herds Of horses. camels, and ele-
plants; and all who have enjoyed the
gorgeous spectacle must admire her taste
and skill. During the winter Mrs White
goes 10 the winter quarters. and carefully
fits patterns TO each animal then returns
to New York city, where thirty seam
stresses under her immediate supervision
fashion each article as carefully and fin-
ish It as nicely as If It were intended for
the most fastldious lady.

why They Are Better Adapted to the
Work Than Men.
In America we are on the highroad
to perfection in domestic architecture
owing, possibly, to the acknowledged
supremacy of our women. Where wo-
man reigns supreme it is the end and
aim of her men to make her comforta-
bic and happy. Now the American
architect, being a man and belonging
most likely to some woman, makes it
his pride TO provide for her-or her sex
which she representative most com
Portable, convenient and pretty house
TO adorn with her taste and her pres
ence until she moves.
A woman is not wasteful In small
things, but a man is. Who, then, is so
adapted to utilize the small space
which constitutes the average house
A house can be the visible expression
Of her cleverness, her economy, her
taste and her common sense. 1t will
give her an opportunity to be great in
the minor aspirations.
When she builds a house she viii put
herself in the place Of that other wom-
an whose destiny it is to live there. She
Will warm that house comfortably be-
cause she herself hates to shiver. She
will put in plenty Of cupboards because
without cupboards life is not worth liv-
ing-to a woman. Her kitchen will be
in just proportion to the size of the
house and not a kind Of baronial hal
in which even the beetles look lonely.

For the June Bride

Many novelties are shown from
which the June bride may choose her
most important frock. The heavy
satin once considered the only correct
material has been replaced by thin
transparent fabrics; in fact. most
gauzy materials are used for the dress.
Some OF the most popular fabrics have
a high, silky finish almost silvery IN
effect. Gau2e, messaline, soft-fnished
taffeta, lace, and the graceful crepe de
chine respond readily TO the present
vogue of draped bodices and shirred
sleeves and skirts, which demands
lsuppleness Of material. Foreigners still
cling TO the old-time idea, however and
the majority OF imported gowns are of
satin having a severely plain skirt and
simply trimmed bodice with a lace
bertha and sleeve frills or slight
ldrapery of tulle and orange blossoms.
Lace gowns for bridal wear are al
ways charming. and the novelties OF
the season show marvellously beautiful
webs. Machine-made laces are quite
Wonderful this season; the limitations
of Irish crochet are so cleverly done
that they are not easily distinguishable
from the real thing. especially when
the design is not too lavish. In order
to preserve the soft effect desired. all
lace gowns are mounted over chiffon
before being hung over the silk Innings.
The train OF a wedding gown. If very
Hong, is so fashioned that it may after
ward be detached from the gown and
the frock worn without IL.
In choosing the veil, the material OF
the gown must be considered The
ltulle veil without hem usually accom-
panies the gown OF figured material,
those Of Brussels net with lace border
or those of Chantilly lace being suit
able for gowns Of plain material.

numerous fabrics from which 10 select.
soft silks and clinging crepes are es-

A SMOOTH YOUNG SKIN.

The Method by which One Woman
Preserves Her Complexion.
A professional model whose COM
pleKion is of the classic type has this
to say about her smooth skin and its
treatment:
Il suppose I ought to say that owe
my complexion to soap and water; but,
to tell the actual truth, neither soap nor
water agrees with my skin very we'll
seldom wash my face, vulgar as this
may sound.
Il am accustomed to taking a cold
bath every day, which is a matter of
habit 1t is good for some people and
bad for others, but it agrees perfectly
with me. feel invigorated by it.
'In the natural course Of events my
face gets its dash Of cold water, but
otherwise 1 do not wash it except for
a light steaming which it gets once in
awhile, say once in ten days or so.
"At night l cover my face thickly
with cold cream. put 1t on in great
layers. 1 let it remain on for a few
minutes and then remove 1t with a soft
cloth. 1 then apply another thick coat
ing Of cold cream, and this 1 leave on
all night. 1t seems to sink into the
pores and to supply the moisture
which has been taken out of 1t during
the day.
You cannot expect to have a smooth
young skin unless you use lots of cold
cream on your face. You must exper-
iment until you find the right kind OF
cold cream to use. II glycerin hurts
your skin, do not use it, If you can
not stand rose water and alcohol, why,
It is best to omit them. Discover the
kind of cream you can use and stick
to IT. That is the way did. Brook

boxes may be covered with cretonne

to be bought at a hardware shop. The
shelves which the carpenter has made

THE HANDS.

Don't cut the nails In points, but
carefully arohed.
Don't cut the euticle or any part Of
the flesh around the nails.
Don't cut the nails without first hold
ing them in wax TO soften them.
Don't wear rings that are too small.
The inevitable result is red and swOl-
len hands and knuckles.
Don't wear bracelets tight enough to
affect the circulation or so that they
rub on the joints of the wrist.
Don't wear gloves every night or the
hands will become yellow. Occasional
use Of gloves, however, is advisable.
Don't forget to pinch the ends Of the
fingers now and then. This will do a
good deal toward making the fingers
taper.
Don't dry the hands carelessly after
washing. Use a soft damask towel or
a silk handkerchief and dry thor
oughly.

look as II they had chronic. sore
throats, while a girl with a neclSllil a
giraffe wears a little rundown collar
and makes fine carlcature OF herself.
Let her who has the long neck wear
all the high soft neck adornments she
can get together With an. evening
gown she need not be afraid ito put a
band OF ribbon under her necklace,
and she will look all the bstter. In
the daytime a medium necked woman
should never wear a collar that con-
fines the neck too much. Inlthe even
ing the least adornment possible, and
IL she be fortunate enough to have a
pretty neck and throat she is better
without any jewels. II she must wear
some. let them be a string Of pearls
or a necklace OF solitaire diamonds.
