smiled broadly about that time, as it
was smiling time for him.
The bridal party then journeyed
up to the home Of the groom,s par

served. From the glowing description
of this meal, we infer that surely the

In our issue of week before last we
not only gave ourselves away as not
being a native-bOrn Mississippian
and consequently we'll versed in Mis-
sissippi history, but we made mis-
tatement partaking of several speci-
cations which we are glad friend
called our attention to, SO that we
can correct it. The article alluded to
was one in which we were protesting
against some of the brother editors
dropping the final ''e'' in this paper s
name or that part OF it derived from
the County in which it is published:
Greene. We said the county was
named after one of Mississippi's dis
tinguished sons in her early days,
Col. and afterwards Gov. Greene.
That's where the mistake came in.
Greene County was named after the
Revolutionary War hero, Nathaniel
Greene, who was in the Carolinas.
The Colonel of the same name we had
in mind did not spell his name with
a final e, though he was Mississ-
ippian of fame, being Congressman
as well as military distinguished;
however, he never attained to the
Gubernatorial chair. It's not often we
get wrong. but if we do and we find
it out we always hasten to rectify
our error.

Money In BOGUS Pennies.

Strangely enough, the most profit
able coins to counterfeit are pennies,
because for an expenditure of Is cents
100 of them can be made, which leaves
a profit of 50 cents on the dollar. The
chief difficulty is in getting them into
circulation. 1t also takes expert work
manship to make these pennies, be-
cause they must be made with die.
The best counterfeiters pay most Of
their attention to the making of quar-
ters, half dollars and dollars. With
silver at so cents an ounce a counter
feiter can make five quarters from
every ounce, quarters that ring true
and have every appearance Of the real
thing.-New York World.

Be satisfied to commence on small
scale. 1t is too common for young
housekeepers TO begin where their
mothers ended. Buy all that is neces-
sary to work skillfully with; adorn
your house with all that will render
it comfortable. Do not look at richer
homes and count their costly furni-
ture. II secret dissatisfaction is read
y to spring up. go step further and
visit the home of the suffering poor;
behold dark, cherries apartments,
insufficient clothing, and absence of
al the comforts and refinement of So
cial life, and then return to your own
with a joyful spirit. You will then be
prepared to meet your husband with
q grateful heart, and be ready to APP
preciate the toll of self denial which
he has endured i'm the business world
to surround you with the delights of
home; and you will cooperate cheer
fully with him in SO arranging your
expenses, that his mind will not be
continually harassed lest his family
expenses may encroach upon public
payments. Be independent, young
housekeeper never needed greater
moral courage than she does now, to
resist the arrogance of fashion. Do
not let the AS and BIS decide what
you shall have, neither let them hold
the strings of your purse 1t matters
but little what people think, provid-
ed that you are true to yourself, to
right and duty, and keep your ex-
penses with your means.

Jefferson County Alabama has
gone dry. The election held early this
week gave nearly two thousand ma
jority in favor of eschewlng the IL

Babylon of that section of country is
the county-seat of that county, SO
the wet goods will have to quit being
sold in its many glittering saloons.

one of the whiskey selling strong

Sociabillty.

Hawthorne in his diary, makes re-
cord OF day wherein he resolved to
speak to no human soul. He went TO
the village, got his mail at the post
Office, returned, and triumphantly
records the facts that he spoke to no
man. Is it any wonder that with all
his genius, Hawthorne was a melan-
choly and essentially, an unhappy
man? How much wiser and better
the opposite course. Think of how
much happiness you convey to 9th
ers by kindly notice and u cheerful
conversation. Think how much sun
shine and sociability lets back into
your own soul. Who does not feel
more cheerful and cOntented for re-
ceiving polite bow, genial good
morning hearty shake of the hand?
Who does not make himself the hap
pier by these little expresses of fell
low-feeling and good will? Silence
and stiff, unbending reserve are
especially selfish and essentially vul-
gar. The generous and polite man
has a pleasant recognition and cheer
fnl word for all he meets. He Scatters
sunbeams wherever he goes. He
DavpS the uath Of others with smiles
He makes society seem genial and
the world delightful to those who
else would find them cold, selfish and
fOrlorn. And what he gives is but a
1.-THE of what he receives. Be sociable
then, wherever you go, and wrap
your lightest words in tones that are
sweet and spirit that is genial.

if you are employed in the private
Office which has been we'll furnished

skirts, not trains, but cut to escape
the ground. Your employer will
want you, like the furniture and pic
lures, to dress his Office tremendously
Wear tailored shirt waists and black
or Oxford gray tailored skirts. If
you prefer black silk waists, never
fail to soften these with fine linen or
lawn collars and cuffs and white or
black ties. Avoid garish colors. be
dignitied in your dress as well as
your manner Do not consider that

Probably they have done about all
possible under the restricted powers
given them. il the boards creation

the clerk or commissioner than it
formerly was on the delegates. These

they ran away before she had a chance

She stated to the police that they

VERY CURIOUS PROCEEDING
Mexican Junta Spirit Is, So 1t Seems,
Abducted and Sent to
Mexico.

Douglas, A. T., July .. = Manuel
Satabia, one of the leading spirits in
the former st. Louis junta, who was
known here as Sam Moret, was ar,
rested and lodged in jail at the in
stance, it is said, of the Mexican gov
eminent Late at night an automobile
occupied by two citizens of the Unit
ed States was driven to the jail The
prisoner was delivered to them and
was forcibly placed in the vehicle.
The automobile and its occupants
were seen little later passing through
the streets, and several witnesses say
that the prisoner was being chokei
into submission. This was the last
seen of it, but there seems little doubt
that Satabia was delivered to the
Mexican authorities at Aguaprieta.
