The contradictions of woman when
she goes into the business of max
ing herself beautiful are striking.
For instance. red as a complexion
beautifier, If applied to her lips or
cheeks. is exceedingly popular. II
that color predominates in her nose,
it is hidden by plaster of white
wash. White is another popular
complexion beautifier, but woman
never applies it to her eye brows,
cheeks or lips. The question then
arises what is woman trying to do
when shes powders, white-washes
and paints2 She is attempting to
initiate nature. which only can
tint and color a woman's face to
make it beautiful.
From a mans standpoint, nc
powdered, painted. daubed OIL
whitewashed woman is half SC
beautiful as she would be fresh
from the studio of nature.

The Plant Less Cotton Idea.

/ For years and years the advice
has been to plant less cotton and
raise more corn and meat. The ad-
vice has been dinned into the ears
Of the farmers until almost every
one believes that to be the solution
for the advancement of the price of
cotton. While all seem to believe,
few are inclined to practice, and
the result has been TO increase the
acreage to the staple each year.
The plan, doubtless, would advance
the price, but facts are wanting TO
establish that cotton now sells for
less than it is worth because of
overproduction. If this be true,
underproduction, which seems to be
the ruling idea, would scarcely inn
prove the situation. Ii the world
has need Of all the cotton now pro-
duced, surely, if market conditions
were normal, it would use it at
what it is worth. Here seems to
be the difficulty. The handling of
cotton from the time it leaves the
hands of the producer TO the time
it goes into the finished product is
a process Of orgins-margins for
the 'piker," the cotton buyer, the
mill buyer, and multiple other
handlers, such as warehouses. car
riers, etc, until it reaches the mill.
Here it represents a cost much
greater than was paid the producer,
and comes back to him in a shirt
or sheet so steep in price as to
make him wonder how the cotton
he had sold so cheap has become so
valuable. He has failed to realize
that the cotton he has raised has
been made to support millions of
buyers, carriers, spectators and
mill operators, and but an insignifi- :
cant part of its real value has gone
to his support.
1t would seem then, that if the
unnecessary element between the
mills and the farmer could be
eliminated, that a greater part of
the real value of his product
would accrue to him.
TO raise less cotton and more
meat and corn is the proper scheme,
if each farmer is to fight for his
best interest alone, but if there is
to be an organized contention to adj
Just the marketing of cotton. and
all producers enter honestly into
the compact-then there is grave
doubt.

u. S. DISPENSATORY
Describes the Principal Ingredients
Contained in Pe-Fu-na

Contained in Pe-ru-na.
Arewe claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proofthat Peruna is in real
ity such catarrh remedy? Let US see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients of
Peruna

of this herbal remedy, that it is largely

nasal eatarrh), atomic dyspepsia ca
tarrh Of the stomach, chronic intesti-
nal catarrh, catarrhal iaundice ca
tarrh of the liver, and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic
organs. It is also recommended for
the treatment of various forms of dis
eases peculiar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as a tonic So also
is cubebs classed as a stomachic and as
4 tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
Of cedron that it is used as a bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysen-
terry, and In intermittent diseases as a
substitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient
Of Peruna, is classed by the United
States DispensatOry as a mild stimu-
liant and diuretic. Itacts On the stom-
ach and intestinal tract. It acts as a
stimulant on the genito-urinary mem
branes Useful in chronic cystitis,

Had Quit WOrk---Ready to Give
Up in Despair.
Restored to Health By VinoI.

II was sick, rundown and finally
had to give up work. After trying
a lumber of remedies and several
physicians, was just about ready to
give up in despair. l saw Vinol ad-
yertised and decided to try it, and it
has done more good for me than all
other means combined. It has built
me up and restored my strength until
| now feel twenty years younger, and
am able to attend tony work again.
Job Jeavons, 1896 Lind street, Wheel
ing, w. Va.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because it contains
tonic iron and all of the strengthening
blood-making and body-builder ele-
ments of cod liver oil, but no OIL
VInol is unexcelled as a strength
creator for old people, delicate chill
dren' weak, rundown persons, and
after sickness and it is the best

The Boat Line.

The TupelO Journal. in comment
ing on what the Weekly had to say
about Aberdeen's boat line and
Tupelo's proposed trolley line, says
that this city has lost much of the
ltawamba trade by the building of
railroads, etc The Weekly thinks
that this trade has been suffered 10
go elsewhere, not so much from the
cause cited by our contemporary,
but because Aberdeen business men
have taken no action heretofore to
put themselves in touch with the
people of that section by means of
boat line or trolley line into that
territory.
Speaking of trolly lines, it strikes
the Weekly that such a line by way
of Wren. Central Grove, Smithville
and on to Stones Cross Roads in
Itawamba ba county would prove a
great developer of that section and
trade getter for Aberdeen. Such
a road, will be built at no distant
day-a day in which Aberdeen will
wake up to what is within her
reach and will go out after it.
