SAVAGE IMPULSES OF MAN
When Emergencies Arise We're as
Primitive as the Most Primitive
of Our Ancestors.

Tt's mighty short step from mod
arm civilization to the natural impulses
of ancient savagery.
IF Won don't believe 1t, just watch
sometime, and you'll see a small boy
or grown man-discover rabbit.
The first thought that comes into
his mind is to kill the rabbit. Quickly
he searches his mind to see where a
weapon can be found.
The second thought is to secure a
rock to throw at it-just as some cave
man might.
man finds snake coiled in the
road II may be harmless snake, but
it's snake, and therefore his primi-
tive instinct calls upon him to kill 1t.
weapon! He seeks about for a
club. lust as his ancient skin-elothed
ancestors would have done, and hav-
ing secured the club he dispatches the
snate. his soul singing with triumph.
Modern civilization probably would
have urged the man to cut forked
click and catch the snake by the neck
,ritb #. then to secure 10c worth OF
cbloroform and kill it swiftly and pain
ieselv. But he goes after the club just
oe naturally as If he had never seen a
steam-heated fat, or ridden on troll

children roam in the woods and eat
everv variety of berry they can find.
II matters not If they be poisonous.
They taste them all from the looks,
and the amount eaten depends on the
taete. This is probably what the cave
children did. and the modern infants
sbo% the same intelligent caution re-
garding what they put in their
mouths.
It's that way all through, We may
have acquired a more or less thick
veneer of modern civilization. but let
emergencies arise and we're as primi-
tive as the most primitive Of CTR an

HATS ON THE FREAK ORDER
Millinery Of the Moment May Be De-
scrlbed as Fearful and
Wonderful.

The millinery Of the moment can
only be described as freakish, for sure
ly never before was the head of wom-
an covered with such incongruities.
Not content with Stimulating the an
pearance Of mushrooms, sugar loaves
and yariegated birds nests. the latest
hat is the aeroplane, with large out.
standing wings adorning the back of
the hat and set at the jauntiest angle
imaginable.
The reign Of the winged hat. sober
ly and decorously adorned with wings
covering the crown and part of the
brim, Is apparently over, for the wings
must be made freakish to look smart.
so following on the aeroplane hat we
have the hat which can only be de-
scribed as a winged Mercury, with two
seductive looking wings planted at the
back Of the crown of large black hat.
shaped exactly like the wings which
adorn the ankles of the famous Mer.
curry statue.
There is no accounting for taste.
for even If a woman knows she does
not look well in hat pulled down over
her eyes until half her face Is hidden.
that hat she will wear because it is
the fashion
One Of the most startling millinery
freaks seen was blue velvet toque
which can best be described as a be-
dizened sugar loaf
The cone part of this sugar loaf
toque was Of WedgwoOd blue velvet.
while a deep band of steel embroidered
lace formed the lower part, and hang
ing from this was tiny fringe of steel
beads which would adorn the forehead
Salomewise. The toque, it should be
added. completely covered all signs of
hair and hid the wearer's left eye en-
tirely.
Other toques of the momept have
crowns ascending skywards. 81 high
and so full are these velvet crowns
rising from a band Of bizarre en-
broidery that they give a topheavy
appearance to the unfortunate wsarer.

HOW CRACKER
CAME HOME
BY STACY E. BAKER

Copyright. 1910, by Associated Literary Press
The city-cut clothes and Van Dyke
beard OF Cracker effectively disguised
him as he strode carelessly along in
the rear Of Plodville's two most sub
stantial citizens. Shreds of their con
yersation came back to him.
Cracker had no particular reason
for remaining incognito, except for a
livid memory, the unhealed bruises
of which even now smarted to the
sneers and comments OF the same
two, now before him, on his simple
statement, years before, that he
wished to become a lawyer.
Crackers father had been fairly
prosperous farmer on a tract Of land
bordering Plodville. Crackers grand
father had preceded his father on this
same spot-and there had been others
before him bearing the same name
and with the same blood in their
veins. That the last Of the clan had
ambitions above that Of tilling the
soil had amused Plodville. Plodville,
slumbering old village that 1t was,
rocked not of stress and the fighting
germ In mans blood.
The harsh voice of Enoch Sneed-
man broke in on the reverie Of the
youth.
Emma died this morning" came
from the lips of the old man. Ly-
man Tollman strobe stolidly along
beside his fellow townsman for some
seconds before he ventured reply.
Good thing" came In harsh
voice at last. She was an expensive
critter, Emma was"
The nails of the man behind bit
into the palms of his hands as he
listened.
"Oh, she was all right" cham
pioned old Enoch, reminiscently, ''but
pesky unreliable, and as finicky as
lady's lapdog."
Cracker at these words took sud
den step forward, and then came to
a stop with a contemptuous shrug of

his shoulders. II can't assault old
men," he grumbled, half aloud. II
should know more anyway than to
expect sentiment from such-cattle.
Still-her own father! what brutes
there are in this world"
Although Cracker haI long since as
sured himself that he had put
thoughts of the timid-eyed, golden
haired little maid from him, the dull
beat of his heart now told him Of
the secret crypt that had long been
kept for her.
Emmal No other woman Of his
acquaintance before or since his col
lege days could compare with her.
And then a word had cut into his
sensitive, town-taunted soul and
ruined it all.
Embittered with a town that could
not or would not understand the am
bition Of a courageous son striving to
rise above his environments, Cracker
had made just one visit back to Plod-
vile since the death of his mother
had made It possible for him to sever
all ties except one and take his long
dreamed-of college course.
This one tie had been Emma Sneed-
man. He had come back to her, and
into his conversation he had subtly
woven a question that would decide
whether she was above the narrow
prejudice Of the town, or hopelessly
permeated with the views of her
father and his neighbors.
Emma" he had said. Il have fin
ished college. Where would you ad-
wise me to locate?"
Here" Emma had replied. simply
and Cracker, heavy Of heart, had gone
away and never. until now, came
back.
Cracker had gone to the far city,
been admitted to the bar, and pros
pered. He had never intended to
come back for the girl Business had
called him here. and now-she was
dead!
She was deadl The heart, long sub
dued, bravely threw off its shaekles
to tell Cracker the truth.
q must go to the house" rumi-
mated Cracker. There was a noticeable
droop to the broad shoulders. What
a beast Of a man that Sneedman is to
talk in such heartless manner of bis

No one recognized Cracker His
smart attire, the nose glasses and his
heavy dark beard gave him an appear

would have credited to the queer boy
who had left town years before
Cracker strode sorrowfully up the
long walk leading through the Sneed-
man yard. His eyes sight the old
fashioned knocker of the front door.
1t was crapeless!
"Beastl" reiterated Cracker. His
hand stopped as he reached forth to
sound his arrival. A gasp quivered
on his lips. Some one inside the
house was singingl Singing, at that,

The man raised startled eyes, and
fairly flung himself out of his chair.

"But-but thought you were

"Me-dead?" wondered the girl,
and then she suddenly broke into

among the visitors to Jackson on Thurs
day. MIR. May, with others, will soon
establish in this city ready print con-
Germ for the purpose of supplying the
wants of Mississippi papers.-Clarion-
Ledger.
Mr.. w. E. Golfer, a prosperous farmer
living about six miles south of here,
was an appreciated caller at the News
othce on Wednesday. He presented the
News with an extra large persimmon-
larger than we have ever seen before
Mr.. Golfer says that his trees are bear
ing nicely, and that he expects to exhibit
the fruit at the Beat One Fair.
We are very sorry to hear Of the death
of Mrs. j, H. Donald, an elderly lady
who lives short way In the north of
town. We have not learned the partic-
ulars vet, but it seems that Mrs. Don
aid was out walking on Wednesday
evening and that she dropped dead.
Her children will be in today, and the
funeral will take place at the Brandon
cemetery this afternoon.
Justice J. T. Williams, of Florence,
and Justice J. d. Thomas, of Thomas
VILE, were called to Brandon On We'd
nesday TO sit with Justice Corley, of this
city, on the trial Of Hugh Washburn
charged with killing negro, Aonzo
Easterling, at the rock quarry On Tues
Gay of last week. The preliminary trial
was waived and Mr.. Washburn was
bound over to the circuit court giving q
$4,000 bond.
The funeral of Frank Brown, the little
sen of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Brown, was
held on Sunday ut II o'clock. Rev. Bow
man of the NJ E. church conducted the
services and spoke in words of the ten
derest sympathy and comfort, cf deepest
Christian hope and promise. How deep
" we sympathize with the afflicted fa,her
and mother, for we realize that now that
only the memory of the lovely little child
is left yet how sweet, how uplifting is its
influence. We agree with MIN who said
when death strikes down the limo
cent and the young, for every fragile form
from which he lets the painting spirit
free, hundred virtues rise in shapes of
mercy, charity and love, to walk the
world and bless it. OF every tear that
scrrowing mortals shed on such green
graves, so~nc good Is born, some gentIer
