r. p. WALTERS.


Robert Peyton Walters died Tues
day morning at the Brandon Santa
rum where be has been under treat.
ment for some time.
From years he. had been suff-
erer from a complication Of disc
ases and while there could be no
cure, the indomitable will he posses
sed. and which few men have the
same degree, alone kept him up.
He was quiet, patient sufferer
and few knew OF his precarious con-
dition.
, He was the promoter of the Plan
tiers Gin G., Compress Co., Of this
place, which he organized.
Mr.. Walters came here several
years ago, to- accept the position of
book keeper for the H. A. Busick Co.
Afterwards he was elected assistant
cashier of the Rankin County Bank,
which position he resigned to orga-
nize the Gin Co. His remains were
shipped to Reidsville, N. c., where
his parents reside and where he was
born SO years and months ago.
He was companionable and popular
with those who knew him best,and to
the loved ones in the home of his
youth the friends he made here ten
der sympathy.

Whenever a Hopi maiden feels that
the time has arrived when she should
begin to think seriously of choosing
husband she does up her hair in
two gigantic whorls, one over each
ear. These are danger signals, warn
ing the young men of the community
that she is cunning for a husband.
Sometimes it happens that a half doz-
en- or more young men will take to
the tall timber on learning that the
whorls have appeared on the head
of those young women. Flight is their
only hope, as the mothers are SO jeal-

an unwilling son, and the fathers are
not consulted.
There is a difference of opinion as
to perfumed hair; some women, nice
ones, too, think faint, elusive, in

while other women are strong in
their condemnation of scented tresses
If you are not one of the women
who think perfume hair vulgar, you
may like to know how to impart
an odor to it instead of paying to
have it done by the hairdresser.
| The best time is Immediately after
the hair is shampooed, while it is still
slightly damp. Four five or six drops
of oil of lavender, oil of jasmine or
oil of violet in the palm of your hand
and rub it over the bristles of clean
rather stiff hair brush.
| Brush the hair thoroughly for five
! or ten minutes and you will carry
around for a week a faint, delicate
fragrance.

That the national laws of other
countries are badly in need of re-
vision was shown by an experience o
French woman the other day, who
was travelling from Brussels to Paris.
At the Franco-Belgian frontier she
was asked whether she had anything
to declare, and promptly responded
that she had not. A custom officer
says an exchange mot taking her word
for it, came upon box half full of
cigarettes and declared that duty
must be paid on them.
Madame X replied that as the
cigarettes were for her own use and
the box broken, regulations permitted
fumeurs (smokers) to take these in
without duty.
"Ah,' replied the customs man,
'the regulations reply only to fumeurl
not fumeuses" (women smokers.)
The fumeuses were not persons re-
cognized by law. Argument was futile
the officer was immoyable and the
fine was paid.

The girl who likes to keep abreast
of fads has a new way of making tea
and the usual pot is banished from
her afternoon tea table. =
In it's place she uses tea Strainer
of silver or gold, long handle being
a necessity.
In the strainer she puts fresh
leaves from the .caddy, filling the
the small bowl about half full.
To make the tea the Strainer is
held over a cup, under the stream
from the boiling kettle, and in this
way a fresh cup for each guest is in.
Sured.
1t may seem as though there would
be no strength to the beverage, but
as a matter of fact, this is very easil
regulated. Pouring the water throug
slowly, says an exchange, increases
the strength; when the liquid is pour
ed rapidly, the brew is a gentle one.
To make tea in this manner is not
as simple as it sounds, and the girl
who contemplates doing twill be wis
to practice once or twice alone. Too
many leaves in the strainer hold 1t
so that, instead of going through the
holes, it will spill over the top. A
steady hand is also necessary, like
wise a knowledge of when to stop I'll
water so that the cup will not be too
full.
1t is a pretty fashion, though, and
when seen for the first time, never
fails to be interesting to guests.
