Guin, November 19.-(SpeciaIJ-T Age-Herald's new train '"The Messenger Boy" passed here on It's first trip this morning at 1920 The schedule time for this train Is 10:10, but for some reason it was ten minutes late. Quite large crowd of our people were at the depot to meet the train and several leading citi- zens took advantage of the opportunity to visit their friends and relatives along the line between Guin and Amory.

Fast mail train No. 205 will stop here as usual, but fast mall train No. 206 will only slow up for mall, and will stop for passengers for Amory and all points west of Memphis

SCOTT'S EMULSION

SCOTT'S EMULSION is more than a fat food. There is no animal fat that compares with it in nourishing and building up the wasted, emaciated body. That is why chil- dren and an2mic girls thrive and grow fat upon it. That is why persons with consumptive tenden-. cies gain flesh and strength enough to check the progress of the dis ease.

A MENTAL PUZZLE.
Double Conscfousness DeveIoped nv
nm Attack of Illness

Double consciousness Developed by
nm Attack of nIness
Speaking OF instances of double con-
seriousness, Mental Science notes the
Following case:
The patient was a girl, twenty-two
years OF age. She suffered from some
affection that may have been menin-
gifts, but this is not known positively.
She then developed acute maniacal ex-
citation. During this illness the M
tient presented some remarkable
changes OF personality = such as are
seen In hysteria. The author does not
term the curious manifestations by
this name, but describes some nine or
more different varieties OF personality
manifested by the patient that are
quite interesting. Thus the patient had
spells OF blindness. deafness, paraly sis.
etc. The most interesting OF these
manifestations. because the least easy
to explain, was the patients ability to
draw the fun figure Of nurse. etc.
during her speil OF blindness. To con-
vince himself that this was the actual
case the author held book between
the patients eyes and the sheet of
paper on which she was drawing OF put
his hands before her eyes while she
was drawing without In any way inter
fering with her drawing Her sense OF
touch was highly sensitive during that
period; she could detect a line drawn
across her drawing paper. dates writ
ten at the top Of her drawing paper,
merely by touching the paper where
the intruding lines had been drawn.
During her normal state the patient
could never draw either before or after
her Illness.

knife Carving In Cuh,.

A party writing TO the Post recently
mentions the knife carrying habit SO
much IN vogue in Cuba and asks that
we continue our campaign against 1t.
We will continue the campaign against
this vice until the proper notice has
been taken of it, though this be years
from now. All of the lower classes.
with hardly an exception, carry MUIR
derous knives. II they cannot afford
to buy n knife fzom a store they find
piece OF steel and sharpen 1t Into a
deadly weapon Ind carry 1t wrapped
In piece OF paper about their clothes.
ready to use on the slightest occasion.
The result OF this is many murders,
which would not occur under other cir
cumstances. IL the police were in
structed to keep on the watch for knife
carriers it would be but n very short
time until the habit would become I'M
popular.-Havana Post.

The Pearl In the Oyster.

The supreme court at Hamburg. Ger
many, has decided who owns the pear
in the oyster.
A young woman who was eating oys.
tiers In restaurant found a pearl worth
$3.50. Naturally she claimed It. A
young man who had paid for the young
woman's oysters was gallant enough to
support her claim. Findings keen
ihgs' seems to be n rule peculiar to no
country But the hard hearted restau-
rant keeper wanted the pearl too. So
he sued to recover 1t. II the chicken
bones belonged to him, why not the
oyster shells-and this particular pearl ?
When the case came TO trial the court
held that the disputed pearl belonged
neither TO the young woman who found
1t nor to the restaurant keeper who
sold the oysters. BY right 1t went to
the young man who paid for the oys-
tiers. AS he had already declared that
1t belonged to his fair companion, he
was doubtless logical enough to give
1t TO her and she grateful enough to
take II and him. Romance has its re-
quirements as well as law.-New York
