To The Lexington Advertiser
The Pythian Club has opened the
club room to the lady friends of the
members on Wednesday OF each week
On Wednesdays therefore they invite
and urge the ladies to make use of the
rooms. Should any of the ladies clubs
wish to hold their meetings there il
could probably be arranged SO tnat al
certain hours they may have room
undisturbed. The Choral Club, the
Study Club, Whist Club, U. d. G. and
others might have some or all of their
meetings in this central location. Sug-
gestions for possibly better arrange
ments will be welcomed at any time
1t is hoped the rooms will become
as popular with the lady friends of
members on Wednesdays as they are
with men on other days. w.

BROOKHAVEN LEADER
SAYS NOEL'S THE man
HOists His Name As Its Choice
Tor Governor, After Carefully
Considering the Strongest and
Best Points Of the Six.

The Advertiser takes pleasure in
reproducing below an editorial from
the Brookkhaven Leader, which this
week hoisted the name of e. r. Noel
at its masthead as its choice for gov.
ernor. The Leader has always been
conscientious in its every editorial ut
terance and that Editor Hobbs reached
the conclusion that he did speaks
volumes in Mr.. Noel's favor and COR
roborates what the Advertiser and
many others have been claiming all
the time.
There are six candidates before the
people for governor All of these are
men Of high character and recognized
ability, and not one in he list but
possesses some of the best essential
qualifications required Of chief ex-
ecutive of this proud commonwealth. !.
Up to this time this paper, as our
readers know has never expressed any
choice or preference between them.
The gubernatorial campaign, in our
opinion, was launched prematurely
by all of the candidates, and we have
had more than ample time to carefully
consider the strongest and best points
of all Of the aspirants and what is pro-
missed to the state by the candidacy of
each, and, after giving the subject the
most thoughtful and patriotic consid-
Grafton of which we are capable, we
have reached the deliberate conclusion
that the man who would make the
state the very best governor in the
whole list, is Hon. e. F. Noel, of
Holmes, and the Leader today hoists
his name at its masthead as its choice
for this exalted office.
Mr.. Noel is not only the equal of
any of his competitors in all of the
attributes of exalted, manly character
and possessed of high order of talents
and ability, but when it comes to Civ.
ing the state a creditable, successful
business administration of its affairs
we believe he is far better equipped
by actual training and experience in
legislation and statecraft for this inn
portant service than any other man in
the race His long and useful service
as legislator. his able and painstak-
ing labors on many of the principal
legislative committees, his familiar
knowledge acquired as, law-maker
and successful practitioner with the
constitution and laws of the state, en-
abling him to have at his finger ends
as it were, not only all hte functions,
duties and details required of the gov
ernor's Office, but of every other de-
partment of the state government as
we'll, are strong points in his favor
which none of his competitors can SO
we'll claim. Add to these things the
fact that he has more extensive per-
soaal acquaintance with and knowi-
edge of the men of the state who now
figure and will figure in the public life
of the state for years to come, and his
more thorough acquaintance among
the masses of the people and with con-
ditions in every section and almost
every hamlet of Mississippi than any
other candidate in the race. and il

A GIRLS HEELS
Her Shoes Said to Be an Index to
 Her Character.

Her Shoes Said to Be an Index to
 Her Character.
 If you want to know whether a girl is slorenly or not look at her heels" said the wise woman to the young man who was contemplating matrimony. Tier gown may be pret- ty. her hat becoming, her neckwear trim and neat and her gloves well fit. ting. but if her heels are run over look out for her. Her trimness in other re- spects simply denotes that she is neat spasmodicaily, that she will make an effort 10 keep things tidied and in or der only when she is urged to or be cause she has some special provoca- ton. But by nature she is slack. The man that marries a girl with perpetu- ally run over heels will find her com ing to the breakfast table as soon as the honeymoon Is over in a tumbied kimono and with her hair in curl pa pers. She never will be a good house keeper.
 On the other hand. I've seen girls who maybe did not have such a trim appearance. whose hair was apt to be little flying. but whose heels rested firmly on the ground. and never did I discover they were in the sloyenIy class. Maybe they were not careful enough of outward appearances. but they kept their buttons sewed on. rips repaired. spots sponged of and their rooms in immaculate" order" Ex- change

THE GREAT RACHEL.
Fondness of the Famous Actress For
 Searfpins.

Fondness of the Famous Actress For
 Searfpins.
 A rather comical story relating to the great Rachel and at one time her de voted admirer, Prince Demidoff, runs this way:
 It seems that upon the occasion of the princes visits to the charming actress she would often greet him in playful mood and while criticising his attire. which was the special object of his thought, would draw from his necktie the pin which secured it. a cameo. topaz, ruby or whatever it might chance to be, and place it in her pincushion or upon her corsage.
 This habit greatly amused the prince. 1t seemed so childish and such mis- chieYous act. and it really added to her charm in his eyes. One day, how ever. he called wearing q sort of stock, and consequently had no jewel.
 The observant maid noticed that there was no pin in the tie of Demi- doff, and when she announced him to his mistress mentioned the fact Tt is the prince. but he wears a stock"
 Then say I am out replied Rachel
 Finding himself refused an inter view, the prince set about learning the real reason. It nightly amused him. and thereafter he never appeared with ont the bauble that had always proved the sesame to the great actress pres euce. Minneapolis Journal.

POISONED GLOVES.
They Had Their Home In Italy With
 the Borgias and Mcdicis.

the Rorgias and Mcdicis.
 Perfumed gloves have contributed largely to the bright and cruel side of romance. of fact and of fiction. They had their home in Italy. the home of the Borgias and De Medicis. and it is said, with how much truth will never be known, that many an untimely death was caused by wearing perfum- ed gloves whose scented palms con cealed a deadly poison. It seems to have been a fayorite .pestime of the notorious Alexander VI and of his more notorious son. Caesar Borgia. to invite friend to dine, show him every attention as a guest. present him with beautiful pair of perfumed and poi soned gloves and next day send flowers 10 his funeral, accompanied by little note, polite. but firm. requesting the immediate transference of all the prop erty of the deceased to the coffers of the Borgias.
 There Is an interesting and very ugly story of famous poisoner of the fif- teenth century who confessed under the water cure to having murdered for consideration about fifteen people by means of poisoned gloves. The poison she employed was so slow in taking effect that for years she remained un- discovered and finally came to grief through her own foolish boasting.- Kansas City Star.

DO YOUR LEVEL BEST.
Put the Right Spirit Into Your Work
 and Keep Your ideals High.

Put the Right Spirit Into Your Work
 and Keep Your ideals High.
 Put the right spirit into your work. Treat your calling as divine, as a call from principle. if the thing itself be not important, the spirit in which you take hold of it makes all the difference in the world to you. It can make or mar the man. You cannot afford grumbling service or botched work in your life's record. You cannot afford 10 form habit Of half doing things oF of doing them in the spirit of drudge, for this will drag its slimy trail through all your subsequent career, always hu- initiating you at the most unexpected times. Let other people do the poor jobs, the botched work, if they will Keep your standards up, your ideals high.
 The attitude with which q man ap- breaches his task has everything to do with the quality and efficiency of his work and with its influence upon his character. What a man does is a part of himself It Is the self expression of what no stands for. Our life work Is an outpicturIng of our ambition, our ideals. our real selves. If you see mans work, you see the man.
 No one can respect himself or have that sublime faith in himself which is essential to all high achievements when he puts mean. half hearted, slip shod service into what he does. He cannot get his highest self approval un- til he does his level best.-Success.

LIBERTY STREET
Mayor Thoms Secured Extension
 Where Others Failed.

What is the reason you don't hear hear word now about that Liberty street extension project which went in with the railroad deal 30 many
 are kicking about. Since tho late Ether Duggan took up the light for a cross street from South Main street to Bank street twenty-five years ago or more. the matter has been upper most in the public mind. but nobody in authority took much stock in it until Mayor Thorns had 1t included among the concessions of the city when the union station project was under consideration. Now and then you hear people say that the contract ap- proved by the aldermen, republicans as well as democrats voting for 1t, and signed by the mayor, regarding the union station Is the same one which the business administration had in mind, but this is mstake. There was not a word in the old contract about Liberty street and nobody thought of it at that time until MT Thoms insisted that 1t be included in the contract. Isn't that worth any thing to the thousands of citizens who have been clamoring for that street nearly all their lives. It is but vol, don't hear much about 1t in certain quarters. The republican managers haven't time. They are too busy gos- siping about crosswalks, digging up old sores about men that lost their jobs and other things of that sort. Meanwhile the thoughtful voter Is thinking and the more he thinks the more he becomes convinced that after all Mayor Thoms has accomplished something worth while. r..
