The acme of desirability in a dress
ing or lounging is attained only when
the garment is at once simple in de-
sign, becoming in style and comfort
able to wear.
The model fully realizes this ideal and
is, besides, so easy of construction
that no home sewer need hesitate to at
tempt it. The sack is fitted at the back
by means of tucks double shirring
drawing 1t in to the figure at the
waist line, while in front 1t is gath
cred to a we'll fitting yoke and hangs
in loose folds. A novel feature is the
prettily shaped collar, which extends
down each side of the front to the
hem in revers fashion. The sleeve is
of three-quarter length and in bishop
shape, being finished with a band. The
negligee is modelled in figured batiste
and trimmed simply with lace, but

CUT THE SPINNERS OUT

When the Farmers Union was
first organized the writer con-
tended then, as now, that the
union would make very slow
Roadway by holding conferences
with the Bosses" (the spinners).
The spinners have no common
interests with the farmers, no
more than the Manufacturers
Association has with laborers.
Labor has tried the plan of con-
tracing with capital for over so
years, to find that it is failure
in attaining final results, but is
now looking to the system of
labor contracting with labor, and
ct capital shift for itself.
The farmers can get more re-
suits in 30 minutes in a confer
ence with the Textile Weavers
Union looking toward an agree
ment whereby the Weavers
Union will not handle a bale of
cotton unless it has the Farmers
Union label. Then a bale of cot
ton without the label would be
worthless. The label would be
insured by your union. Then
your price would be realized. and
not till then.
This system would work with
every product of the farm.
While we regret the loss of even
a day in securing results, yet we
are glad to know the farmer has
learned SO soon that these spin
ner deals are of no avail. We
note the wall of every Farmers
Union paper which looked to
these same spinners FOR relief.
but are now double crossing the
farmers. Let the next confer
ence be with the weavers. Cut
the spinners out. = Oklahoma

A newspaper has 5000 readers
fer each 1000 subscribers. A
merchant who puts out 1000
handbills gets possibly 400 PEG
pie to read that is, if the boy
who is trusted to distribute them
does not chuck them under the
sidewalk. The handbills cost as
much as a half column in the
home paper. All the women
and girls and half the men and
boys read the advertisements.
Result: The merchant who uses
the newspaper has $500 more
readers to each LOCO Of the pa
pers readers. There is no esti-
mating the amount OF business
that advertising does bring to q
merchant, bat each dollar brings
somewhere from 500 to 500

CONSIDERING A CHANGE.

Lucy caused her mistress a lot of
worry by receiving the attentions of
a dashing head waiter at a seaside
resort hotel. Really, you ought to
speak to Lucy about it, so the
friends of the girls mistress told
her. at would be too bad to see
Lucy in love with a married man"
Speak to her she did, but to her sur
prise, she saw Lucy parading the
boardwalk the next evening in the
same old company, and ON the fol-
lowing day Lucy was taken severely
to task.

LIQUID OF IMMENSE VALUE.

A Hungarian chemist named
Brunn claims to have discovered a
liquid chemical compound which
doubles the density of nearly every
kind of stone and renders it water
proof, and imparts to all metals
qualities which defy oxygen and
rust. While travelling in Greece
some rs years ago he noticed that
the mortar in stones of ruins which
were known to be over 1000 years
old was as hard, fresh, and tenacious
as if it had been made only a year
He secured piece of the mortar,
and has been working on it ever
since until now.

J. A. BAILEY FOR COUNTY CLERK

J. A. Bailey, of Rosston, Caney
township, this week authorizes
the Picayune to announce him as
candidate for the office of
County Clerk, subject to the
action of the democratic primary.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Bailey made the race for this
Office two years ago. There We're
four candidates in the field and
he ran a good second, receiving
4S1 votes, when COP nominated.
There is little that the Picay-
une can say about Nh. Bailey in
an Introductory way that is not
already known by the voters of
the county. The fact that he is
one of the most prominent young
school teachers of the county; a
young man of sterling quality,
who claims an extensive acquain-
lance throughout the county, and
the further fact that ne has many
friends who are Jealous in his
behalf. is indicative that he will
put up a strong race for the
Office CT county clerk.
The Picayune commends his
claims to the voters, and asks
that they be given careful con-
sideration, ard in the event that
he is nominated and elected we
have no hesitancy in saying that
he will make good and faithful
officer.

or the municipality or the state
for the last tax levy they have
discharged their whole duty and
nothing more can be asked of
them. But in reality a mans
duty to his neighbor is limited
only by his power to do his neigh
Dor good, and his duty to the
community by his ability to be
of service to it. The community
in which the prevailing state
mcnt is What can | get out of
it," is one which does net and
cannot prosper. And we take
this proposition as good. That
there are men in every commun-
fly who are unable to pay all OF
Their debts contracted, yet they
are of more REAL value to the
community in which they reside
than ereat many who are
stiaklers upon paying financial
obligations they incur.

1t has come to us that the
Picayune is being accused of lin
ing up with certain county candi-
dates in the fight in the primary.
This is not so. All candidates in
the county contests will look
alike to the Picayune prior to the
primary, but after the Demo-
Gratis have made their choice the
Pieayune will place the ticket at
its masthead and do its utmost
to make it a winner. When we
accept a mans announcement
fee, it is for the purpose of put
ting his claims before the peoA
pie. 1t is nothing more nor less
than an advertisement, and the
better the advertisement is writ

gives the candidate. AS to the
paper lining up with any particu-
lar candidate there is nothing
to it. This does not sacrifice the
right of the editor, personally,
to support whom he pleases.
