CRYMES BUILDING
UNDER ERECTION

Work is nro!ro ssing nicely on the
two-sfory BRICK building being erect
ed by Mr.. T. P. Crymes at the cor
ner of Mobile and East Pine streets.
This handsome brick building.
which succeeds a small frame build
ing and some tents, will add much
20 the appearance Of that part of the
city. Ii is being built so that addi-
tional stories can be added as de-
sired. This is a prominent and con-
spicuous corner, being near the Hotel
Hattiesburg and right where a great
many strangers pass in going to and
from the G. e S. l. depot, and the
new building fills in a space that was
not at all ornamental.

HOLIDAYS
NOW NEAR
City Will Soon Begin to Take On
Attire of the Glad Season
Stores Decorating

1t will be but few days now until
Hattiesburg begins to take on a hol.
iday attire. Some of the windows to
the stores already show the signs
OF the approaching holiday season and
have been nicely decorated.
1t is said by those who have passed
through dull seasons that the holiday
trade is but little effected by the slow
ness of trade in other lines. PeopIe
generally want to have a pleasant
time Christmas, if for no other time
during the year. and to this end. manv
people save their money for weeks
so they can spend it in making their
loved ones happy during the holiday
season, by purchasing nice and useful
presents.
1t is said that a number of Hatties.
burg merchants have purchased for
this season a larger and handsomer
supply of holiday goods than ever he
fore and the probability is that thew
VIII have no trouble to dispose OF
them.
knowing that Hattiesburg has a
large and choice stock of holiday
goods, it is safe to say that the out
of-town trade will be large. It is
the only place in this section where
people can come and purchase ex-
actly the things they need at reason
able prices.
Those merchants who have not al
ready opened their holiday goods may
be expected to do so within a few
days and place them on exhibition.

ing hostess of the Woman's Mission

Gull Out the Weaklinos.

One decided aid to better vitality in
the fiocks is to never let chick live
that shows low vitality. xii every
weakling" should be the wide awake
poultryman's watchword, and never
breed from a bird that is not just full
of vigor and vitality-that is, not in
the most robust health. The indica-
lions of weakness and low vitality
should be considered, the condition of
the eye being one of the safest guides.
A dull, lusterless eye is certain sign
of weak vitality. A long, thin shank
and thin body are other indications
of weakness, and we should avoid a
"crow" head-a long, thin head. That
is sure sign Of lack of vitality and
vigor.-Professor J. f. Rice.

The Morris & Somerset Electric Co.
has cleaned up the work on the lines
for the town lighting except for some
odds and ends and some little tree
trimmings which are being done under
the direction of the shade tree com
mission. Three panels of the switch
board, which had been expected for a
week, arrived on Wednesday and work
was started setting them up. The
other panels are on the way. Steam
fitting is nearly completed; belts have
been put on the machinery. The steel
stack had some rivets loosened iii NOV
ing it and workmen were expected to
remedy the defects yesterday. A small
piece connected with the boiler plant
has evidently gone wrong on the way
from Newark, but is momentarily ex-
pected. Work has been started rum
ming some branch conduits about the
Park in order to connect up for COM
mercial service.

No Money in r.. #. d. Boxes.

Postmaster Clarke desires to call at
tention to the practice of some patrons
of rural delivery of placing loose coins
in their boxes each time they desire to
dispatch letters instead of supplying
themselves with postage in advance of
their needs. This practice imposes I'M
due hardship on rural carriers in re-
moving loose coins from boxes and de-
lays themon the service of their routes.
The postmaster, therefore, urgently re-
quests that patrons of rural delivery
provide themselves and keep on hand
supply of stamps consistent with and
in advance of their needs. Ii is also
very desirable that rural patrons place
in their mail boxes small detachable
cups of wood or tin in which to place
coins, when necessary, in purchasing
supplies Of stamps.
