" Glngerbread Man"
 Good Enough to Eat

Pine Bluff thcatereoers last night witnessed the best musical fantasy seen in this city in many years, The Ginger5read Man It was the first appearance Of that popular musical show in this city and the packed house that greeted the company is an evidence Of it's continued popularity. The fact that Nixon and Zimmerman offer ,H" production was enough suaIan.tts t.. its; excellence, and Iittla as one nay believe the average the atergoer', ability to judge plays, t
 s a fact nevertheless that those wno keep posted on theatricals know that Nixon and Zimmerman seldom offer
 III infelior product;or or d company that reflects discredit upon their management.
 'The Gingerbread Man k; good enough to eat. It is one of the most Imaginable and prettiest costumed shows of the season. The big chorus of pretty, shapely girls is alone I big drawing card. The comedy $ fast and furious and the songs many and catchy. The principals are Of undisputed excellence. The perform ance is bright, refreshing and enter taining throughout. The entire con- pany is splendid one, containing among the bright particular stars Fred J. Nice, the "Gingerbread Man; 2" Rose Murray. 'MarSery Daw"; Ross Snow. "Wondrous Wise; Maurice
 Holden, the Good Fairy; Adele Ar cher, Jack Horner"; Georgia Camp bell, .Mazic Bon Bon," and numbers of others. There is nothing lacking in. the cast. The participants answer every purpose expected of them.
 The comedy of Nice and Holden is one of the features of the mammoth
 reduction. The music Is especially fine. the chorus being strong and me- lodious. There are several good en- se1nble numbers and solos offered. 'u1oon, Moon, Moon." Queen of My Dreams" and the Beautiful Land of Bon Bon" being the most striking of the popular airs. Miss Georgia Camp bell has a magnificent voice and she used it to good advantage. Her num- ber with Miss Archer brought forth |several encores Miss Rose Murray is about the cleverest little soubrette touring the South this season. She is graceful and ranks among the best as a dancer. Her "Spooning Sunday Night" song received merited ap- Dlause. The stage settings were of sumptuous order and realistic even to the smaller detail.

For Keeping Food Cool.

A farmer correspondent uses a sub
stitute for a refrigerator which at
the same time is more convenient
than carrying provisions to the cellar
and back again. He makes an en-
closure of twelve-inch round thing
from his kitchen floor to the cellar
bottom and six or eight feet deeper,
or until he reaches about water level.
The tiles are fastened together with
cement and fitted with neat cover
about level with the kitchen floor
The temperature at the bottom of this
enclosure is quite low and food let
down by means of cord and wind
lass is kept from spelling, he claims,
almost as we'll as in a refrigerator
It is used for keeping butter firm and
to prevent milk, meat and other pro-
visions from spelling. - American

"Er--r-r-r- yes, yes, I reckon

Of sweet corn and reached for his to-

manac is a handy thing to have

Deadly Paris Green.

Although it is fact that old-time
farmers still use dry Paris green by
the ton to kill cabbage caterpillars,
although sprayed arsenates, not so
deadly, are better insecticides, still
you need not worry. Professor Sur
face, of Pennsylvania, after analysis,
finds that to amass sufficient deadly
green, one must consume 200 cab
bages at sitting What a blow to
those hunting trouble" for very
few people eat over one two-hun-
dredth of this number, even at Sun
day dinner.-H. B. Fullerton, in the
American Cultivator.

was entirely disproved, when Mrs.
Oswell Eve, of Augusta, read to
the convention letter which she had
received from Mr.. Jesse n. Williams,
the mayor Of Andersonville, in which
he assured her that all of Anderson
vile wanted the monument; a petit
ton was enclosed, which had been
signed by number Of the citizens Of
Andersonville. Mr.. Williams stated
that not one citizen approached had
refused to sign the petition asking
that the monument be placed there.
Further, he assured her that the shaft
would be protected if sent to Ander-
sonville.
The suggestion from some of the
opponents of Andersonville that it
might be defaced by Northern tour
lists who visit The National Cemetery,
is, apart from its absurdity, almost
an insult to our Northern contempt
raries. Do not Northerners erect
monuments ON Southern soil, without
fear Of DETACHMENT? Then, surely,
since this shaft has been erected with
purest motives, we can place it where
it belongs, regardless of these absurd
objections. The obscurity Of Ander-
sonville has also been mentioned as
an objection Were Andersonville a
wilderness and yet the scene of Wirz S
labors for the Confederacy, the shaft
should be placed there. How can its
being placed in some other Georgia
CITY refute the false charges that are
yet to be seen on sign-boards and
placards, at Andersonville? The ac-
cusation is at Andersonville only, and
placed elsewhere in Georgia, the Wirz
monument will have lost it's signif-
canoe.
sAndersonville and Wirz are synon-
ymous; we associate Captain Wirz
with Andersonville as naturally as we
connect the great Napoleon with Wa
terloo!
If the decision for Richmond be
rescinded, when the coming session
takes place, it is sincerely hoped that
the Georgia U. D. C. will have real
lied that their placing the monument
our agents, and during this week we
only violates the original resolution,
but breaks faith with those who con-
trbiuted towards erecting the monu-
ment at Andersonville, and that the
purpose for which it was erected, will
never be fulfilled if not placed there.

FARM TOPICS

plenty of meat food After a few
years a poultry yard becomes bare of
good grit material as well as of green
food and the fowls need more atten-
tion in those particulars than at first.
The meat part of the ration is doled
out by some people as if it were a
kind of medicine instead Of food.
The best way is~to keep meat scraps
on hand all the time in meat hop
per, allowing the birds to eat all they
care for. It is a rather expensive
part of the food, but returns more
growth and eggs for the money ex-
pended than any other one item. 1t
is hopeless to try to get much Of an
egg record, especially in fall and win
ter, without feeding plenty Of meat
and milk.-Farmers' Home journal.
Help Out the Boy.
Two Of my boys have decided to
follow farming, the other is going to
the city to study mechanical engineer
ing. | am pretty we'll satisfied to get
two farmers out Of the three and they
are going to be better farmers than I
am if the agricultural college can do
the trick. When was boy my edu-
cation was confined to three months
at the little old red school house
where a new teacher-usually some
raw-boned, laddie-buck who ought to
have been in school himself-tr to
teach us "readin', writin' and 'rith-
metic." My education on the farm
was dull, hard work, doing things just
as my grandfather had done them.
My pleasure was trapping rabbits and
mink in winter and fishing about twice
in summer, when | could steal away.
On Sundays I sat on the doorstep or
the horseback wearing pair of cow
hide shoes, stiff shirt, longing for
the woods and the creek and grumb-
ling and growing to myself when l
was not reading the Bible or study
ing the catechism. Tough times for
boys then, but I learned lesson which
may help my own boys. They shall
have an education, some healthful
pleasure always and freedom. John
