sioners. enacted at Jackson yester-
day, goes into effect Immediately, and
the New Orleans and Northeastern
Railroad must provide at the earliest
possible moment new and commodi-
Gus freight and passenger depots in
Hattiesburg.
This is the second time that the

GETTING READY
FOR ENCAMPMENT
Hattiesburg Hopes to Make an Excel
lent Showing.

The encampment of the State troops
at Columbus will take place between
the dates of August, and Is inclu-
sive. This time was picked out so
that the soldier boys would not be
deprived of their privilege of voting
in the August primaries for State and
other officers. They can cast their
vote in the first primary, which occurs
on August /, and be back home in
time to vote in the second primary,
August o. Adjutant General Fridge
has secured rate Of one cent each
way, which will be further reduced by
the fact that several of the companies,
whose headquarters are in the prox-
unity of Columbus, will make the trip
overland, marching from their home
towns to Columbus thereby getting in
good trim to better enjoy the duties
of camp life.
Heretofore just before encampment
time it has been the practice of a
number who wanted the benefits of
the outing to enlist in the various
companies, and when camp duty was
over, so was their soldier services,
but this time that custom will not
prevail, as an order has been issued
requiring that all who attend this en-
campment must be enlisted by the 9Th
of July, and in order to insure this
being carried out it is provided that
no man shall receive pay for the time
he is in camp unless his enlistment pa.
pers are on file in the adjutant gen
erals Office.

of black or color to match the cos. tune. The rings are due in outlining with heavy mercerized cotton.
 Another belt was of linen stitched at the edge and soft ribbon laced in the back, front and at each side. The holes for the ribbon should be button. holed. The knotted ends of the ribbon are finished with tiny tassels. A wide dotted ribbon girdle was shirred at the back and front. Loops of the rib bon are caught together with tiny gold buckles and two ends give a sash effect. This belt was fastened by hooking together at the back. A still newer belt was of blue linen with tiny straps of the linen crossed over soft ribbon, which is tied in front. Tiny pearl buttons finish each strap. An other was of soft white linen, with tiny tucks in front and round disks of linen stitched on at intervals.
 There are also most attractive sep arate girdles of ribbon which have two long ends at the back. The belt part of the girdle is made of very wide ribbon laid in soft pleats and kept in place by small pearl buttons or circles of embroidery or lace. The

Rernhardt.s Skin Tonic.

Sarah Bernhardt's famous skin tonic to use after the bath to make the flesh firm and elastic is famous the world over. You can prepare 1t yourself after the following formula: One-half pint of alcohol. two ounces of spirits of camphor. two ounces of spirits of ammonia, five ounces of sea salt and boiling water sufficient to make one quart. Put all in bottle and agitate thoroughly. Rub into the skin with the hands. Shake always before using. It is an excellent plan when barring the arms and neck for an evening dress to bathe them in this lotion. It also takes the fatigue from ones muscles after a long walk or much exercise.

Styles in outlno Hat..

Outing hats are more interesting than ever this season. for they par take of the diversity of style accorded to chapeaux for other occasions. The panama is still the favorite, although the sombrero style. so popular last year is superseded by the "slouch" hat. It has rounded crown in various heights to suit different styles of faces and a closely turned brim which is bent down at the side back A plaid ribbon Is wound twice around the crown. loosely knotted. and the ends which are fringed. are allowed to hang down the groove made by the bending of the brim.

the kitchen. Throwing small piece of raw meat upon the stationary table, he opened the door. There was a tremendous rush and snarl, and in an instant the two great cats were upon the table, growing and tearing at each other and at the piece of meat. In another instant they were gone with their plumber, and Charlie, shutting and locking the door, ad. vanced smilingly to where I stood gasping.
 But, Charlie" I cried, what in the world have those cats to do with old Boylan?"
 My dear" replied Charlie. pat. ronizingly, you need enlightenment. Old Boylan has got the years rent in his pocket, and now he proposes to live in the house himself. He has let his store building and has hired Rogers to move his goods into this house tomorrow afternoon. That old Mike himself and no other may be the first to open that kitchen door to- morrow is now all I ask of Fate!"
 Why, Charlie!" I cried in dlsmay, you horrid. cruel boy! The poor man will be dreadfully frightened! What if he should have spasms and die?"
 Charlie whistled lightly, evidently quite unurelenting. But in the morn. ing he seemed preoccupied and i'll at ease. We were to leave town at nine o'clock, and soon after breakfast he seized his hat and rushed out, mutter. ing something about a man he had forgotten to see. He came back flushed but tranquil.
 Ten minutes later the door of our room was slowly opened and-in shuf. fled old Boylan! Grimy, gloomy glowering as ever. his black pipe fast in the vise-like grip of his frightful teeth. he advanced and held toward Charlie a knotted hand, in which lay slip of paper.

 Younger Girls.

Belts of ribbon, leather and linen are an important adjunct of the sum. mer costume for the young girl as well as her grown up sister, the styles and varieties being endless. The sketches show a few ideas for ribbon and linen for young girls from 12 to 16.
 Among the most attractive of the new ones are those in which linen belts are laced with ribbon. One such belt was of linen, with buttonholed edges and three scallops at the back, in which buttonholes are made. Soft ribbon an inch and half wide is run through the buttonholes and tied in a full small bow. The ribbon should be

opened the door. The woman who lived next door stood there. Kin you let me have little bit of coffee, Miss Lappin?" she said. T didn't know I wuz out"
 Miss .Lappin went to the closet and began to pour out some ground coffee into a cup. ''There! that'll do. only wanted a little bit" the woman cried. Miss Lappin handed her the cup, which she took with many thanks and promises of payment in the near future. She walked to the door, then stood there in a hesitating. embar- rassed way. Miss Lappin-don't mind me astin' it-but is your Marie all right? IT."
 Why do you ast anything about Marie?' Miss Lappin cried angrily. Her sallow face was crimson. Her black eyes bashed.
 "Oh, nothin' Nothin at all," the wis., ftor explained hastily. I didn't mean nothin', Miss Lappin."
 Miss Lappin suddenly sank into a chair. She buried her face in the corner of her white apron and began to cry. Marie walked out of here yesterday mornin' to see the circus parade. an never came back" she sobbed.
 The woman placed her cup of cof- fee on the table. She came over to Miss Lappin. Miss Lappin, I'm very sorry for you, I am indeed. Not one kin say but what you brought Marie up all right. An now I'll tell you somethin'; what came in this morn in to tell you. Last night my hus- band went to the circus, an after, he went up to the depot to see the cir GUS people goin' on. An, Miss Lappin, if your Marie didn't git on the cars with theml It gave me a turn, kin tell you, when he told me that. I insisted he must be gettin' sff, an that 1t wuzn't your Marie, but some one else, but he stuck to it like glue. He said she had on pink dress an sailor hat. an that he'd know her in China. Gettin' right on the cars. Miss Lappin. with one of the circus men laughin' an talkin' to her"
 Miss Lappln arpse. She had ceased crying. Her face was gray. and her eyes looked as if a film covered them. Bad blood will out. no matter whats done" she said, grimly.
 The woman took her coffee and de parted in silence.
 But Dame Gossip was not so sure of Marie's heredity being responsible for her detection. Said she: "Any girl. even the best. might have did the very same thing if they had an old maid who didn't know the first thing about bringin' up children in control of them. When peoples too strict with a girl. that's gener'ly what happens. never knew it to fail. unless the girl didn't have gump- ton enough to nli a thinble."
 The problem of the influence of heredity in controlling the actions of individuals neither interested nor i'm pressed Boisville.

Loss of a Good Thinq.

Formerly a telephone had stood on the bracket in the corner. The brack- ct had been made expressly for the phone. It had been so exceedingly convenient to call up her friends that the woman immediately noticed the change; for on the bracket in place of the telephone stood statuette that she didn't much care for. What have you done with it?" she asked of them. "The company tried to col lect the bill," they said. T am sorry" !" the woman sighed, because at that moment she thought of about a dozen to whom she would have liked to tele- phone. so are all our friends" said they pointedly.

 It is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid and other poisons. but when the kid- neys are sick. and not doing their duty. the uric acid poisons permeates the body. and attacks body. brain and nerves. The irritation causes ner- yousness. irritability, headache. dizzy spells: makes you languid. unfit for work. and inclined to worry over trifes. Besides, there Is nothing more annoying than a bad back, and backache is the most common sign of kidney trouble.

buttons or embroidery applique are placed in front and also in the back. two of them on either side of the back and front, little space apart. The ends in the back are fastened under these buttons or ornaments. Girdies for the summer are also being made in taffeta, either plain or lowered, and in soft satins. The belt is crushed or pleated. usually being boned in front or at the sides. It is widest at the back and most narrow at the sides, but the distinctive feature is not so much the belt part as the long ends, which are made narrow at the top and rounded and much wider at the bottom. These ends are sometimes finished with narrow lace. with stitch ing or with fringe.

 The window was open, and, as he spoke, a huge black cat, which with another, an enormous tiger-gray, had been living on our bounty all summer, leaped in and jumped upon Charles knee with extravagant demonstrations of affection. Charlie Is very fond of animals; and, in spite of his ill-humor, he stroked the cats glossy coat gently and presently began to laugh. T was thinking how much afraid of this cat old Boylan is," he explained"
 He's afraid of all cats,' I rejoined laughing, too. He fell of the side porch fiat on his back in the alley one day, in his frantic efforts to put all possible space between himself and Tiger"
 Charlie laughed again. very strange ly, too, thought.
 And during the rest of our stay in Delvoir his spirits retained this un Yonted buoyancy. Every evening when returned from my customary visit to the reading room, found him ridiculousiy gay; and even when he made out the check placing, for nc consideration whatever. $40 into the greedy clutches of old Boylan, he seemed as exhilarated as if he had fallen heir to million.

 ''I'll take them off as soon as I come home." Marie replied humbly. Just as soon as the parade Is over I'll hurry home and take these things off."
 "All right" said Miss Lappin. 'I'll let 1t pass for this time. But when you do thing so silly again you'll see what I'll do"
 I'll never do it again." Marie prom ised in low voice. Then she walked out of the house.
 When noon-time arrived and Marie had not reached home. Miss Lappin sat down to her dinner. saying: Tt must take circus parades longer to pass than when wuz young. My goodness, I had no idee but Marie would be home by now"
 But the afternoon passed and even ing came and still Marie did not ap- pear.
 After supper Miss Lappin went into the parlor and sat at one of the win dows. All night long Miss Lappin kept her vigil. Just wait till she comes. Just wait till she comes," she told herself again and again. Morning dawned. "Somethin's happened. know. I'm sure somethin's happen ed" Miss Lappin now moaned. That comes from lettin' her go for just onct. Oh, if I only hadn't let her go."
 Presently there was knock that Miss Lappin heard in the parlor. She rushed eagerly into the kitchen and
