crate in every way in the anti-tuber-
culosis campaign. At meeting yes
terday of the executive committee or
ders were given for the purchase of

PROBABLE CANDIDATES
FOR VARIOUS OFFICES
indications Are That The County Cam
paign Will Begin To open UP AS
Soon AS The Congressional Election
Is Over.

Although the county election is a
full year in the future, prospects
are that the campaign will begin to
open up as soon as the congressional
election is out of the way. In fact,
county politics is lively topic al
ready, and indications are that the
field will be we'll filled with candi-
dates.
For the office of sheriff and tax COL
lector, it is stated that w. S. McKin-
non will enter the race, and that he
will probably be opposed by J. H.
Selby and D. G.. McGilvray, both of
whom are now deputies under Sheriff
Magruder.
Herbert ellis and T. j. Nixon are
the only ones whose names have been
mentioned thus far in connection with
the circuit clerks office, while it is
said that Chancery Clerk Batson will
be opposed for reelection by Capt. j
A. Beaumont, who is now city tax
assessor.
The contest for the office of district
attorney, while not a county office, is
of much interest to local citizens, and
it is thought quite probable that
several young attorneys of this city
will enter the race; among the names
mentioned being those of Claude Hill
Clyde R. Conner and VIM. H. Cook

No INTIMATION OF
Who WILL Serve
In The Various Departments Of The
City Government Under New Ad-
ministration.-Many Rumors Afloat,
But None Confirmed.

The attention of citizens of Hatties-
burg is somewhat occupied just now
with speculation as to what Will prob
ably be the policy of the new admins
tration with reference to employing
men to serve in various departments
of the city government, but so far as
can be learned, neither the mayor
elect or the commissioners have in
timated what course they will pursue.
Under the commission form of gov
ernment, which will go into effect in
Hattiesburg on January 1 next, many
offices which have heretofore been
elective will become appointive, and
every servant of the city must be en-
ployed by the municipal commission,
composed of the mayor and two COM
missioners.
The offices of city clerk, city treas
urer, chief of police, tax collector, tax
, assessor, street commissioner, in
short, all offices which have heretofore
been elective, must be filled by ap-
pointment, as well as those of chief
of the fire department, superintendent
of waterworks and sanitary officer
which were already appointive.
Already quite a number of names
are being mentioned in connection
with each of these offices, but so far as
anybody knows, no jobs have been
promised by the commissioners, and
it is not believed that anybody knows
with any certainty who will be fa
vored.>
Under the commission form of gov
ernment the office of police justice IS
abolished, unless the commission sees
fit to employ a man to act in that
capacity. The mayor or either of the
commissioners may assume the duties
of that office; or, if in their judgment
they think best. they may designate a
man for the place.
Among the many rumors afoat
is one which has it that

while another says that j. F. Williams,

Using prospect TO secure the appoint
ment This is only speculative, how
ever, as it is generally known that all
applicants for various positions under
the new administration will be given
hearing before the commission be-
fore any of the appointments are
made.
It is stated on reliable authority
that none of the present city officials
have asked for appointment to the Of
fees which they now hold, although
each of them have been urged by their
friends to make application before the
commission.

FEAR germs IN
CANNED FRUIT
(By Union Associated Press.)

San Francisco, Aug. 11.-Tubercular
patients from southern California are
arriving in the northern part of the
state by hundreds to seek employment
in the orchards and canneries. Ow-
ing to the fear that the disease germs
might be spread in the canned fruit,
they have been excluded from such
work in many places, with the result
that scores of them are in dire need.
Physicians of the state board of
health declare that there is nothing
to fear from the germs getting into
canned fruit, but that the association
of the "lungers" with other workmen
is likely to prove harmful to the lat
ter.

Should Buy Wholesale.

Comparatively few housekeepers
appreciate the economy of buying
household supplies in large quanti-
ties, at wholesale rates. Try it for
a while, keeping strict account, and
at the end of the year you will be
surprised at the amount of money
saved When it is impossible for one
to buy in large quantities, owing
perhaps, to small family, let sew
eral housekeepers club together, one
woman who has business ability at
tending to the ordering, or they can
take turns in doing that part of the
work If they choose. OF course, 1t is
some trouble, but it pays well for the
time spent
Many articles in daily use, as dried
fruit, canned goods, spices, etc, can
be kept for a long time if properly
cared for. Soap is much better kept
long time-the longer the better.
Butter, if put up in prints or small
packages, can be wrapped in clean
wet cloth, or wet butter paper, and
put into jar of strong brine-as
much salt in the water as it will dis

How many housekeepers have ever
thought of utilizing melted ice cream?
Instead of throwing away the small
portions left in the serving dish,
freezer or mold, this melted ice
cream should be incorporated in
cake, cookies or in some cold desert.
For the latter a little geratine must
be added, varying, of course, with the
result desired Melted chocolate ice
cream into which has been stirred
chopped marshmellows makes a par
ticularly delicious combination and
requires only the addition of little
gelatine. Strawberry or coffee ice
cream used in this way is almost as
good.
When using melted ice cream for
cake leave out the milk called for in
the recipe and lessen the quantities
of butter and sugar. No general rule
can be given for this, as ice cream
differs so much in richness that each
housekekeper must evolve her own
recipe. The flavor of the cake must
be considered land the flavor of the
melted ice cream must harmonic
with it.-Exchange.

How to Dress Wei CheapIy.

Good clothes do not mean eXpen-
sive clothes. Do not invest in poor
material. Wait until you can buy
god cloth that will look well while
there is thread left; cloth that can
be made over or dyed and which in
it's last analysis can still be the
foundation for some childish gar
ment. Personally / prefer a suit
made to order because the Innings,
buttons and trimmings are usually
better, if not, it is your fault. Never
buy a cheap sleazy lining. You will
have to refine your coat the next sea-
son and it will not look well after the
first few weeks Of wear.
Two or even three good silk waists,
one black, the others colored, give
you change in dress that helps out
look and your skirt will pass muster
unnoticed even though it be the same,
each wearing. In buying any kind
of material, when economy and long
wearing is a prime object, always
buy a plain goods, or some small fig
can't afford to be known as that
woman in the butterfly dress" You
don't want to impress your friends
with a mental image of your garb.
Darn or mend the tiniest rip or tear
| in the neatest, most unnoticeable
way, just as soon as it appears. The
| least neglect is often dangerous
Cleanse all mud, dust, spots, stains
from garments as soon as they are
made. Don't let them fasten their
grip on any garment.
Never throw a garment carelessly
in heap. Brush, fold or hang up as
soon as removed. 1t will wear twice
as long and look twice as well as
when neglected.
The woman who wants to dress
well on small income must practice
simplicity, always remembering that
simplicity is good taste. If you can
make our own undergarments, you
can have better ones at lesser price
than you can buy.
The process of making is pleasing
To see a beautiful garment grow
from it's commencement by your own
skill is pleasant and womanly. Sew
enty-fve dollars can be made to cover
all expenses of good dress by
the average woman of small income
if these directions, which may be I'M.
proved upon, are followed and posi-.
bly, in emergencies a lesser sun
could do. l have not touched or
shoes, hosiery or hats, but care il
buying, in using and keeping apply
to these parts of woman's wardrobe
as much as to others. / do not meal
this for those who can spend as they
please, but, rather, for those wht
must spend as they can.-EXchange

A Neglected Privilege.

One of the happiest privileges
granted mankind is, to my way of
thinking, that of knowing ones fell
lows. THE individual (some of us
term him a snob) who confines his
friendships and his intimacies to a
narrow circumference is cheating
himself of one of the most charming
delights of civilization-that of So
cial intercourse. To know all kinds
is to appreciate the viewpoints OBJ
tanned from all sides and, therefore,
is to broaden ones understanding,
enlarge ones sympathies and to free
one from the narrow prejudices that
are born of ignorance. There is a
great deal of happiness in store for
the student who reaches out beyond
the group of congenial friends who
gather naturally about him through
some harmony or similarity of tastes
to study those men and those women
whose surroundings are vitality diff
ferent, whose duties are widely at
variance with his own, and whose
judgments and opinions are eminently
worth seeking as the exposition of a
hitherto unfamiliar side of life which
is as real and practical as that with
which he is himself conversant.
1t is highly advisable that the in
dividual who takes little interest in
life, makes few friends and is more
or less bored by existence itself,
should make the acquaintance of the
butchers boy, the bakers apprentice,
the candlemaker's assistant, the man
who winds the clocks and the woman
who makes the bread, the delivery
boy and the conductor, the furnace
man and the representatives of other
honest trades and professions who
serve him, in some measures, every
day and with whom he comes in al
most constant contact. Here are well
springs of JOY and pleasure and op-
portunity awaiting the man who
knows how. One is forever discov-
ering quaint little romances, bits of
everyday heroism, pathetic little in
cidents, sage PHILOSOPHERS and mel
low intellects which set Tom, Dick
and Harry, whom our friends of the
narrow circumference term ''the
common people" above the level of
the average man, which give them a
new interest in our eyes and, strange
to say, impart to our own experience
new and agreeable zest. One can
not honorably wrap himself in black
moods and term himself aggreived
by gods and men when he notes the
game little struggle that some sixteen
year-old girl is putting up against
odds for the very bread she eats and
the shoes she wears. One can't hon,
estly be despirited or cynical or pre-
JUDGED when one knows the inside
workings of these common everyday
friends of ours upon whom some OF
US have made the grevious mistake
of looking as mere automatons, com.
ing, going-whither we knew not
or cared.
1t is not only mistake, but a rank
injustice to shut ones self from the
delights and discoveries that follow
naturally upon simple intercourse and
friendly sympathy with the man neXt
door and the man across the street

Generally backache means that the
