Rev. H. NJ Watson got in Satur-
day from Rustin, La, where he went
last week to attend the M. p Church
Conference of Louisiana. His paper
the Holiness Standard, was adopted
by that conference as the Church Or
gan. With. the backing that the Con
ferences of this State and that have
given him, he can unquestionably
make this paper a success. 1t is to be
run devoid of secular advertising; to
our mind, this for a Church journal
is by no means bad idea, for moth
ing cheapens the influence more of a
religious publication, than the indis-
criminate carrying of patent medi-
cine and get rich quick scheme adver
tisements, and its rarely the case,
that the Editor of such mediums oil
determinations, are very good judges
of what is and what is not an ad o.
the character referred to generally

Dear Ed;ta,..

Dear Editor:
In Us much as Pine
Knot and several Non De Plumes are
sending iA their fluent sketches from
the various portions OF the County
will endcavor to write again.
We in this community are much
delighted at the step The Herald has
taken in excluding from its columns
the advertisements Of Liquor Deal
ers. This is a thing too much indul-
ged in, and The Herald should be We
~ much admired for this action. II
is now furnishing columns Of news
which can not be criticised by the
most expert critic. Other editors oil
County papers should begin to fail in
line.
The prop y of our Section is a.
gain exemplifying itself. We are in
formed of new Tlrpentine Distill-
cry operating under the firm name
and style of, The Big Greek Tur
pentine Co. The people of this sec
tion have as good if not better facil-
tiles than any other section, for the
disposal of their products, not TO
have railroad running through
their immediate section.
The firm of w. w. Valley & Son
are winding up. their first year OF
their turpentine business. They are
more than pleased with the results of
this years work and they extend to
their customers their thanks for the
support and assure them that they
will continue to merit their support
by their usual manner of honest deal
ing.
Mr.. A. Sanders of the firm of .Da-
Wis Marshall s. Co., was in our burg
today. soliciting orders for his Com

Mr.. w. D. Mills formerly of this
place, but now resident of Richton

route to Leakesville.

How to Fit a Sleeve.

The long shoulders of the moment

sleeves into small plaits and make
them perfectly fit the size Of the arm.

plaits are loosened after the bolero is
fitted; but, If desired, they can be left
stitched for few inches from the arm.

which is so difficult. For example, EN-.

as to have the points running down
over the top Of the arm, and this will
be found very effective.

How to Relieve Various Ills without

A bit of iron can be removed from
the eye with Il magnet. Never rub the
eye when it is affected If the particle
causing the disturbance is on the upper
lid, draw out the upper lid and drag
the lashes Of the under lid across the
inside Of the upper lid. Reverse the ac-
tiOn If the dirt is on the lower lid. A
grain of flaXseed often takes out a
spcck of dirt. If tears flow, dry the
eye by wiping it gently toward, never
away from. the nose If some one is at
hand to help, let him roll the lid over

If a child is injured or stunned by a

head slightly higher than the body.
Put cold water or ice about the head
and prepare Il hot mustard bath for

por it may be necessary to apply warm

ment should be given to an adult,
though the treatment can be more he

and not too gently upside down, pat
ting him sharply, but not hard upon
the back. In case of an adult bend the
body forward, face downward, and slap
smartly upon the back. If the obstacle
will not come up, jerk the arms above
the head and force patient to hang his
weight by his hands. This treatment
may start the obstacle downward.
