An! Those Mean Whispers.

The very worst of the whispers are
those who gather up all the harsh
things that have been said about you
and bring them to you-all the thing
said against you or against your
family, or against your style of bus
mess. They gather them all up and
bring them to you in the very worst
shape they bring them to you with
out any of the extenuatng circum-
stances, and after they have made
your feelings raw, very raw. they
take this brine, this turpentine, this
aquafortis, and rub it in with a
coarse towel, and rub Il in until it
sinks to the bone. They make you
the pin cushion in which they thrust
all the sharp things they have ever
heard about you. Now don t bring
me into notice Now don't tell any
body / told you, Let it be between
you and me. Don't involve me in it
Of all They aggravate you to the
point of profanity and then they
wonder you cannot sing psalm tunes
They turn you on spit before y
hot fire and wonder why you are not
absorbed in gratitude to them. Ped
dlers of night shade! Peddlers of Ca
madam thistle! Peddlers of nux vom-
lea! Sometimes they get you in a
corner where you cannot very well
escape without being rude, and then
they tell you all about this one, and
all about the other one, and they talk
talk, talk. After a while they go
away, leaving the place looking like
a barnyard after the foxes and wea-
sells have been around; here wing
and here claw and yonder an eye,
and there crop-destruction every
where.

The Lucedale Plaindealer announ-
ces that it will shortly become all
home print. That is the best though
usually more expensive service for
the country weekly. We should
qualify that best" by adding that
the all home service is even so. unless
the publisher has undue prejudices
against modern plate features. There
are not many weekly Offices that have
the capabilities to get up their paper
altogether at home, that is without
employing some plate and thus pre-
sentlng a sheet thoroughly abreast
of the times. The use of several
strong plate features to cover ground
which otherwise would go uncovered
is far better than the vapid pad
ding-out INDUCED in by some gns.rl-
ly-hcads.

One of the lessons that the South
should have learnt from the panic is
more equitable division of the dis
tribution of the finances in the sec
tions in which the wealth produc-
ton comes. It's foolish for our people
10 stand for having their monies
drawn fro.l this section and center
ed in the East or any other section
for that matter, in greater quanti-
ties than is necessary for the ex
change and movement of commodi-
ties. An instance in point is the
several millions annually drained
out of the South into the Golfers of
the big Insurance Companies with
fiscal headquarters about New York
City. Either the home insurance
companies should be patronized al
together and the big Eastern ones
boycotted or forced to establish f.
nancial loan quarters in each section
that will place there in investments
equal to that represented
by the derived business.

gladly write that excellent sheet
down on our exchange-list. OF late
the HERALD is coming more and
more into recognition by the first
weeklies of the state as a journal of

While that question has been prac-
tically disposed of in Mississippi by
the Primary Election law which has
a clause making provision by nomi-
nations by popular vote, this paper
deems it pertinent to speak out a.
gain and say we heartily favor the
enactment of such legislation Ma
tional as we'll as State as will remove
the Election of United States Sena-
tors from the state Legislatures into
the hands of the voters direct. I'm
questionably the Senatorial body of
these United States needs to be cur
bed and divorced from corporate in
fluence and right here is o point at
which to strike, and in the evolution
of our government we see no present
violence that it can do to that rock OF
Democratic Doctrine, States Rights.
Twenty-nine states have expressed
desire for the adoption of this meth
cd, and let's see more drop in line
quickly.

This paper has never expressed it.
self as hostile to the right kind of
immigration to Greene County, the
kind out of which cometh good moral
and thrifty and public spir ted citi-
zenship, but still we are not willing
to join in anything that savors of a
conspiracy to entice peoples in dis
tant parts, to seek an Eldorado here.
There is plenty of open lands of
quality that will yield to economical
small farming, with proper studious
cultivation, but the soil is usually
poor and requires considerable en-
riching and building up to make
flattering yields. That's the truth
about as we see it. and If the home
less man in crOwed centers wants to
come here and find the manless land,
we extend him a cordial invitation,
as the sparsity of population in this
section holds out numerous reasons
for closer settlement.

About the worst thing parents can
do is to discuss the failings of chill
dren before them. The next worst
thing is for one parent to attempt to
punish the child and the other par
ent protest against it. Either &C
ton will damage the respect of the
child for one or the other of it's par
ents, and If there is one thing more
than smother that parents want to
preserve, it is their dignity before
their children. A child who gets
the idea that one parent is at vari-
ance with the other on the question
of discipline will make both unhappy
and render Itself dee d ,dly object
ionable by playing off one parent
against the other IF you want to
have any harmony in the family, get
together on the question of discip-
lining the children-at least in their
presence-and if you want to quar-
rel on methods, do 1t in the privacy
OF your own apartments, where you
can have it out without lowering
yourselves in the eyes of the chill.

Another birth reached, Enters
on its 18th year, the Leakesville
Greene County Herald. Bro. James
Faulk, is a good editor. for it can
pass upon any examination.
The people of Greene County are
to be congratulated upon having
such paper as the Herald. We
congratulate our worthy contempt
rary and trust that under his able
management that it will continue to
grow and prosper and that perpet-
lal life will be its lot.
The above is doubly appreciated,
coming as it does from the pen of
Bro. Wood, whose service is that
long IN welding the tripod that now
the frosts of Winter show on his
veteran brow.

The father who is "chummy" with

quiring, restless little soul and ex-
plains and encourages, does not need

her children can keep her slippers on

Girls, listen to your mothers: they
are your wisest teachers, your best
counselors. Even though you have
received college education, and the
dear one who in all probability has
denied herself to give it to you has
never gone beyond the third reader,
you can rest assured that it is not
book learning that will keep your
feet away from many pitfalls that
she can warn you from in tender.
loving fashion that you will do well
to heed. The girl that feels herself
superior to her mother in education.
and who shows to the world at large
her contempt for a lack that only
her superior good fortune prevented
her from possessing, is a figure that
we are happy to say it is not met
with often; yet it does exist, and
whenever we see self-complacent
young woman openly co: recting her
mother we feel like giving her good
shaking, and telling her that the
plainspoken, ungrammaticaI and D :
sibiy unrefned woman, who has new
er had her advantages, is in 70 llity
wiser than she will ever be. and that
to impress outsiders, little more
consideration is necessary. No mat
ter how your mothers may speak.
their hearts are in the right place; if
their attire is Old-fashioned and their
manners not up to the frills of the
twentieth century standard, thew
have had experience of more value
than all the schooling and extra ac-
compllshments that you may think
OF shining excellence. Heed your
mother-yOu will never regret it.
g.
1t may be thought that when the
child has grown to manhood or wo-
Manhood. as the case may be, that
the parents duty ceases, and that
henceforth he can paddle his own
canoe and no longer OCCUPY their
anxious minds. But once a parent
is to be always parent. No right
minded father and mother can ever
cease to be deeply interested in and
DESTROYS for the best welfare of the
child they nursed in infancy, and
watched ana guarded tenderly thro'
childhood's hayward years: and so
as the years pass by their eyes are
still directed to the object of their
Affection, with the hope and prayer
that he may be spared trouble and
ilsgrace, and that prosperity and
happiness may be his portion in life.
This Is the living wish; but the flesh
weak; the world has snares and
Illurements, and too often in his
for his brilliant boy. the
ather forgets the wisdom the wears
hould have rooted in him and with
Odds much needed advice from the
eloved one, and even helps nim into II
and debt that will II
ooner or later be his ruin. If we
ould only get away from unholy am
ltion. by that sin fell the angels,
nd not only advise better things
ut act as though we believed them
any son would be kept in the II
straight and narrow way. and he

'ad that leads to honor and prefer

't for this ambition for our child
N. and indiscreet trust in their a.
lities, many a parent would be

oxen heart in age because some

The Pure Food Law.

Secretary Wilson says: "one OF
the objects of the law is to inform
the consumer Of the presence of GER
tain harmful drugs in medicines. "
The law requires that the amount
of chloroform, opium. morphine,
and other habit forming drugs be
stated on the label of each bottle.
The manufacturers of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy have always claimed
that their remedy did not contain
any of these drugs, and the truth of
this claim is now fully proven, as not
mention OF them is made on the label.
This remedy is not only one OF the
safest. but one OF the best in use for
coughs and colds. It's value has been
proven beyond question during the
many years 1t has been in general
use. For sale by DR.. Stones drug
