Congressman Cook Of this state re-
Gently delivered in the house an attack
upon President Roosevelt that will not
add anything to the credit of Mr.. Cook
or the state he represented. When n
in an attack upon our
president goes so near the border line
Of what is considered permissible for a
that committee is APP
pointed to examine the attack with a
view to deciding whether or not il shall
be printed in the record, he Is guilty of
an act that adds nothing to his credit
or to the credit Of the state he repre-
sents. Mr.. Cooks TRADE against Pres
ident Roosevelt barely escaped being
struck from the records and all he ne
complished by It was to attract the at
tract the attention Of the public with
the result of calling down upon him
self severe criticism for his unreasona-
BILE action.

FlclAL PAPER OF PHILLIPS COUNTY
Phillips County Wins Prizes.

A. M. Axelson of Haxtun seems to
have been very much in evidence, as we
predicted, at the Dry Farming Congress
held at Cheyenne, Wyo., last week and
a. result, Phillips county scooped in
afgoodly share of the prizes for farm
product. The prizes won by our county
were as follows:
Best individual exhibit for State of
Colorado, A. NJ. Axelson took second,
a silver cup worth $50.
Best display of corn open to the world
the Haxtun corn club took second and
A.E. Edwards of sedgwick county took
third. The first prize was carried Off
by Fred d. johnson of Wray, so Yuma,
Phillips and Sedgwick county hold the
sweepstakes on corn raised under dry
forming.
A. M. Axelson took first prize on
sheaf millet and on speltz. second prize
on flint corn, flax in sheaf and display
Of native grasses and third prize on
fodder, barley and oats.
Carl Axelson of Haxtun took third
prize on dent corn.
Mr. Axelson was unfortunate in hav-
ing considerable of his grain exhibit
blockaded at Sterling by the snow
storm and 1t did not reach Cheyenne
for the exhibit. Had this reached its
destination in time, he would have car
red of more OF the prizes and in all
probability would have taken first prize
for the best individual exhibit.
Mr.. Axelson deserves much credit for
l;ls advertising he has given this county
as an agricultural county during the
past six months. He took an exhibit
to the Omaha Corn Show, the Denver
Stock Show and the Dry Farming Con-
gress at Cheyenne and carried Off a
good share Of honors for Phillips county
agriculture at each place. 1t has re-
quired not only considerable time to
make these exhibits but is has also re-
quired the expenditure of considerable
money. He shows by his action in this
matter that he believes in advertising
the county and in this he has set an ex-
ample that is well worthy Of emulation
by all who are interested in the settle
ment and development Of our county.

How to Cure a Nervous Headache

How to Cure NeFNodS 7eaoaCnS'
 Are you bothered with nervous head aches? Here Is one of tho simplest yet most effective cures. All that is re- quired is an empty beer bottle or even the rolling pin. Anything will do, in fact, if it is round and hard. Lie down flat upon,your back, and place the bot tie under the back of the neck, allow ing the weight of the head to press down the neck hard against the bot tie. Retain this position for five or ten minutes and note how the headache gradually disappears. The pressure cures because 1t presses down upon two large nerves In the back of the neck, causing them to rest or sleep for the number of minutes the pressure is maintained. This rest allows the nerves to be toned up to normal condi- tion. The treatment is intended for the nervous headache. It will have no effect upon the sick headache wherein tue stomach is the cause.

Hovy%o Wash Chiffon Veils.

Make suds of warm water and a good pure white soap, dip the chiffon veil in and squeeze the veil gently un- til all the soil has disappeared. Do not rub at all. Rinse in several wa ters and pin out on the bed or a fiat surface, over which spread clean sheet, and just before it is dry iron under clean white cloth. If one does not object to q crapy appearance 1t is not necessary to iron chiffon veils at all. Black wells are greatly improved if rusty looking by giving them alco- hol and ammonia-a large spoonful of ammonia to enough alcohol to success fully immerse the veil. Dip. 1t in- and squeeze out without wringing and pin out on a sheet to dry.

STYLES IN INVITATIONS.
How They Should Be Written and Ad-

 dressed Correctly.
 Women write on the first and third pages of a sheet of note paper. leaving the second and fourth pages blank, bu5 in social life this practice is better avoided And postscripts are now more honored in the breach than the observance. A few people write their initials or their name in full in the corner of the envelope, but this is mere fad and too often serves as con- cession to curiosity. When a note is sent by hand that needs reply. the word Answer should be written on the top of the envelope. and 'No an- swer" usually appears when no re- sDOnse is required. "Please forward is the correct term when letter may have to be readdressed, and "Faire suivre' Is its French equivalent. When q letter begins Dear Sir" or Madam the name of the person addressed must be written at the end of the let ter, ITO John White, Esq.," 'To the Manager of the Chicago Telephone Company" ITO the Editor of the Chi cago Tribune"
 Notes of invitation to luncheon should be brief and couched in the simplest terms available. The expres- sion ''Nill ,,ou give us the pleasure of your companyT sounds cut of date and nretentious. The word ''lunch- con" must be used, as "lunch" belongs 1 to the list of what are termed second i A fn 1nfI- mate friend might run thus: 'Will you and your husband luncheon with us next Tuesday, the 3d, at 2 o'clock? Hoping to see you. remain, yours sincerely" etc. But If the invitation happens to be written to some one less well known tho note might be worded as follows: "Dear Mrs. Martin, if you have nothing better to do, will you luncheon with us on Friday next, the 1st,. at :45? Hoping to have the pleas ure of seeing you," etc, And if the husband is invited he should be styled 'Mr Martin"
 l In all cases where you are in doubt l it is better to err on the side of sim plicity. Everybody admires common sense and directness of expression, and regardless of set forms, you cannot go far wrong If you say what there is to be said in we'll chosen and simple words Naturalness always is in good taste, and the most critical persons are quickest to detect the high flown affec' tation of a writer who tries to put on style" and only manages to be artifi' cfaI.

How to keep White Shelves.

Keeping white shelves in the pantry often means a great deal of scrubbing. This need not be so if the shelves arc covered with white oilcloth, such as is used for tables. Cut the oilcloth in long strips about three inches wider than the shelves. Make flour paste and with it stick the oilcloth on the shelves, covering the front edge and pasting it underneath and letting the oilcloth come up about an inch against the wall at the back. Shelves covered with oilcloth will keep tidy for years and only need wiping over with cloth and warm water to clean them.

How to Make Dainty Sandwiches.

If a housekeeper has grown tired Of the conventional sandwich, she should try those made of salmon. They are most palatable. The salmon is faked and moistened with mayonnaise and then put as filling between two ex- tra thin slices of brown bread with the trust cut off. Sweet sandwiches are also in fashion for luncheons and after iheater parties. The newest ones, served by a clever housewife, have n filling of candied cherries chopped fine and moistened with orange juice.

How veqetables Should Be saIted.

Some cooks who count themselves well nigh professionals often do not know quite simple rules of cooking. One of these is i'll regard to the salting. All green vegetables should be salted while cooking. Those that grow under ground should not be salted until after they are cooked Both kinds should be put over the fire in boiling water in~ stead of cold.

A Case of Pellagra.

What the physicians believe,
who have examined him, to be a
genuine case of the newly dis
covered disease of pellagra, has
been found near this place. The
person thus afflicted is Mr.. L. M.
Clark, better known as Luke, +"
who lives six miles west of town
on the Bishop place. Mr.. Clark
says he has had the eruption for
about 20 years; that sometimes it
is pretty annoying and at other
times gives him but little trouble.
AT present it is not troublesome
tlo' there is a pinkish look ng
eruption on both arms that seems
to be nearly gone. 1t was hoped
to have him at Corinth last Thurs
day before the County Med
ical Association, but notice was
not given him until he had warn
ed the hands on the section of
road of which he is overseer, and
he could not leave on that day.

Successful Coon Hunting.

DR.. R. j. Brown, Jim Thomp-
son and Sam Brown went coon
hunting on Bear Creek, between
Eastport and the Tennessee river,
one night last week. Three coons
were treed in an old shell of tree
which was soon cut down. One
coon came out at once and the
dogs jumped him. The fur flew
for awhile but the dogs were too
many. One at time the other
two were punched out and all
killed. The DR., R. j. Brown ex-
hibited the three coons here next
morning. He says coons are
plentiful along that stretch of the
creek.

Values Of Good Roads

A goood country roadis always
to be desired and is a source of
comfort and convenience to every
traveller. Good roads attract pop
ulation as well as good schools
and churches. Good roads i'm
prove the value of the property,
so that it is said that farm lying
two miles from the market con-
nected by bad road is of less
value than an equally good farm
lying ten miles from the market
connected by good road, a large
er load can be drawn by one horse
over good road than BY two over
bad one. Good roads encourage
the greater exchange of products
and commodities between one sec
ton and another - Star Ledger. +

born in Tishomingo county, Miss.
Feb. 10, 1855 and departed this
life Nov. 10, 1909, making his age
a little over 54 years. Mr. Park
er was taken violently i'll late Mon
day evening. DR.. Waldrep was
hastily summoned and did all he
could to resuscitate him but to no
avail. He quietly passed away at
4 O'Clock the following morning
with heart failure. He had been
a citizen of this county all his life
except a short stay in Alabama
and Arkansas. Mr. Parker had
been twice married; the first time
to Miss Francis Wright of this
county. Of this union there were
seven children born, S of whom
survive him. His wife having
died in 1884, he was married again
in 1898, this time to Mrs Addie
Belue; of this union there were 4
children born 3 of whom survive
dim.
He was a quiet unassuming cit
izen, and very successful farmer.
Mr. Parker professed faith in
Christ during the meeting at Chris
tan chapel in September and was
baptized by Bro. Earnest Peden
of Odessa, Mo He was loyal
and consecrated christian, a worthy
and efficient neighbor, a loving
and devoted husband and father.
