Prince In Auto Accident.

Berlin. Sept 1.-Particulars of an automobile accident to Crown Prince Frederick William and the crown prin- cess during their recent visit to Metz have just leaked out. A hay cart forced the princes motor into ditch, where 1t turned over. The occupants of the car suffered no injury, but were unable to get from under the ma chine until peasants came to their as- distance.

How long your light summer clothes last depends not on how much they are worn, but on how often they are washed. That is, if they are washed in the old-fash- toned way
 If they are washed with Fels-Naptha in cold or lukewarm water, the washing won't harm them bit
 Boiling hurts any clothes, but it is par ticularly hard on light stufs, such as sheer linens, lawns, faces and muslins- the fabric SO they will tear easily. And hard rubbing on the washboard wears them out and frays them.
 You avoid this by washing the Fels-Naptha way in cold or lukewarm water. Boiling and hard-rubbing are un- necessary, because FelS-Naptha dlssolves the dirt into tiny particles which are sent flying by light rubbing and thorough rinslng.
 Then, too, the clothes are cleaner, winter and sweeter, as we'll as longer-wear- ing.
 Be sure to follow the easy directions on the red and green wrapper.

and Monday morning, hoodlnms en-
tered the school building and rum
mayed through the various rooms

erwise destroying the school property
including the breaking of at least one
window. While the damage done thls
time was comparatively slight, vel
the school property, as we'll as Ins

Another Prominent Planter TO Use
Oxen for Putting In Crop,

4. L. McBurnev, one OF the most
extensive planters Of this section OF
the state. returned SATURDAY from
EdgerIy with four yoke of cattle which
he will use on his plantation this sum
mer, Mr.. McBurney says he can q"
nearly as much work with four yoke
of cattle as he can with four mules
and that the initial expense Is QnlE
about one-fourth, while the expense
of feeding the cattle is almost MI as
compared with that OF FEEDING ihe
mules. Again. when seeding time Is
over. the cattle can be turned upon
the range for the summer, While a'e
mules or horses would require more
or less attention.
While the return to the use OF catsie
seems at first sight to be retrogres-
sive move, vet lutte study VIII Sno"
that it is a move in the direction OF
economy and one which IS becoming
more popular than one might imagine
as there are now quite number OF
the most progressive planters Of IhiS
part of the parish that are following
along this line Of work.
