zone Touch of Nature Makes tne
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farmyaro
TO come and share it. A similar trait
when a man discovers something eN-
ceptionally good-he wants all MS
friends and neighbors to share tne
benefits of his discovery. This Is
the touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin. This explains why
people who have been cured by Cham-
berIain's Cough Remedy write letters
to the manufacturers for publication
that others similarly ailing may also
use it and obtain relief. Behind every
one of these letters is a warm-hearted
wish of the writer to be of use 10
someone else. This remedy is for
sale by Hays & Field and Yellow Pine
Pharmacy.

IMPROVING STREETS
NEAR WATER PLANl

ers at the waterworks plant, it has
been decided to give an improved
appearance to the general surround
ings of the plant itself.
With this object in view the DrieA'
sand and other waste material LETT
from tearing down the old walls ana
in rebuilding them, will be used III
filling up the Front street side oil the
waterworks plant. To further add TO
surrounding improvement, the fence
which now surrounds the plant VIII
be removed.
Following this, it is probable tha'
the waterworks plant will be soddeo
with grass or sown with grass seed
since with a bountiful supply OF water
at hand, the grass can be made &c
grow to perfection. With these III
movements, the waterworks plan
would, indeed, be a thing OF beauty
compared with what it has Dee'
heretofore.

According to reports received here
from over the state the cotton crop

coming up to nice stands in nearly
all counties.
During the early part of April and
the last week in March great deaf
of cotton was planted, but weather
conditions were not very favorable to
the sprouting process, and the tender
plants that showed their fist green
shoots out of the ground took on
rather sickly hue, owing to the chilly
weather.
Since last Saturday, however there

somewhat cooler weather, occurred At

More interest will be centered in the

Mysterious Piano Player Will Perform
for the Public at the Ladies'
Exchange.

Psyche, the most wonderful piano
player in America, or on earth, per-
haps, will perform in Hattiesburg to-
morrow, at the Ladies' Exchange, on
Main street.
The most wonderful thing in con-
nection with this exhibition is the fact
that it is almost impossible for one
to determine whether Psyche" is a
man or an automan. In many cities
where this exhibition has been given,
detectives have witnessed the perform
ance of the myterious musician, and
after a careful study of the features,
facial expression and movements of
PSYCHE" they were unable to deter.
mine whether the performer was a
man or mechanical device.
Mr.. Howard Hill, who has charge
of the exhibition, in the interest of the
Forbes Piano Company, is in the city
and has made arrangements to have
Psyche perform at the Ladies Elk
change, and the first exhibition will
be given tomorrow. The public is
cordially invited and requested to
witness the performance, and prizes
will be given those who discover Psy
cho's identity.
