The Cruder Type Who Killed.

The man thinks of the cruder type
of uncontrolled men who have killed
their rivals and spent the remainder
of their days in prison cells, realiz-
ing the woman was not worth the
penalty they are paying; he has
learned, too, by observation and eX-
perience, that making a scene which
bruits his suspicion abroad does not
restore mans faith or his happiness.
SO he satisfies himself with beating
his rival at game of bridge and di-
vorcing his wife. And he revenges
himself by knowing the other man
must live with her; and that the wo-
man who has wronged one man will
wrong another.
After all, is not the modern way
the better way?

THE NORMAL SCHOOL.

Continuing our remarks of yester-
day concerning the Normal School.
The general public here we find does
not understand the matter or appre-
ciate its importance at all; II they
did they would be more active in their
efforts to secure the location of the
State Normal School within the cor
porate limits of Hattiesburg.
The impression more or less pre-
walls that it is one of those small
summer normals. There is no sort
of comparison between them. A State
Normal School runs some nine or ten
months of the year. Its expenses are
maintained by the State. The highest
class teachers and professors are
employed, because they are to teach
would-be teachers how to teach. They
are to instruct people who know; and
il these instructors do not know
what they are talking about, the in
telligent young men and women they
are talking to will soon find it out,
and through them the state would
soon find it out. So these instructors
must be high class educators, and
high priced educators. Is it not
worth something to have men of that
class and stamp in a community?
The young men and women who
will attend that school will be from
that class who have graduated at
some high school, and who have high
ideas and ideals, and a purpose and
ambition in life. They will come to
educate themselves for the high Of
fee of imparting knowledge to others.
They will not only be representatives
of a noble and high calling, but they
will represent the highest class OF
that honorable profession the class
who are not willing to go half pre-
pared into their life work, and to half
way do that work; but who are deter
mined to learn how to do that work
well.
This school, If we are correctly in
formed, will be the only Normal
School under state supervision IN
Mississippi. If that is true. and 9TH
ers are not established, this school
wherever it is located, ought to have
and doubtless will have in a very few
years after it has become established
six or eight hundred, probably thou
sand pupils. Six hundred would be
most conservative estimate. They
will come from a distance, nearly al
OF them, and the money they bring
ana spend will be new money" II
will not be swapping dollars among
ourselves; it will be new money com

These six hundred pupils, counting

CAUSE or HIGH PRICES

1t has been discovered that high
prices ruled forty years ago. Some
foodstuffs were higher than they are
now. Flour listed up to $3.50 per bar
rel, sugar ranged from 10 to 16 cents
per pound. cranberries sold at Is cents
per quart and cheese brought from II
to 20 cents per pound, Those prices
are much higher than nj present. But
ter sold in 1870 at from 80 to 81 cents
per pound. ham % cents, bacon 90
cents and shoulder at 16 cents Eggs
brought 30 cents per dozen and turkey
chickens and ducks were much cheap
er than they are now. However
dried fruits were much higher than
they are now.
bear out the position of economists
who hold that deprecated money is
the principal cause of the general
price advancing all over the world.
Supply and demand, the tariff. trusts
and other things have something to
do with high prices. but the chief
rason is that gold has become so
plentiful that its purchasing power
has been decreasing for ten years and
may so continue for as much longer.
In 1870 the war had been cosed but
a short time and paper money was so
plentiful that it decreased in purchas-
ing power.
sa far no remedy has been suggest
ed whereby the gold increase won't
benefit some and injure others, Time
may solve 1t all. Wages have been
slowly advancing and employers must
expect this to continue. The railroad
managers as a rule have taken that
view, but the railroads are in the
peculiar position Of being forced to
fight for the rates they, now have,
much less plan raise. The two-cent
fight has never ceased and efforts are
constantly being made to lower
freight rates.

Simple General Directions.
It is more often neglect Of little
things than carelessness about big
main points that makes washing nm
unsatisfactory task. Attention to these
details may tighten the work for some
women and bring them better results.
Remember to make fresh suds when
ever necessary. lt Is mistake to
think you can make clothes>~clean i'm
dirty water.
Put the clothes to boil in cold water
and heat slowly. The best results are
obtained when there is a large quanti-
ty Of water and the boiler is but half
full of clothes. Each boilerful of
clothes should be put on in clean, cold
water.
clothes must be free from soap before
bluing. Use soft water for first rims
ing. then hard water If color of soft Is
not good.
Hard water may be softened by boil
ing, then cooling before using, or n
solution of salsoda may be added.
This ought not to be too strong or the
salsoda Will injure both the fabric and
the hands.
In bluing shake out each article and
drop 1t into the blulng water, rinse
carefully through the water, then
wiring out at once. Do not allow clothes,
to stay in bluing water for any length
of time or they will be strcaked.
Thick starch is made by mixing one
half cup of laundry starch and one
quarter cup of cold water, then add
one-quarter teaspoonful of white wax
or lard and one quart of boiling water.

in small quantity in the cold water in
which clothes are soaked makes the
washing easier. The success of laun-
dering also depends on the kind and
amount of soap used. For wool and
silk articles use only good white
soap containing very little alknll or
acid. Both these chemicals have an
injurious effect on silk and wool. Sal
soda makes wooen garments yellow,
makes the fiber harsh and less elastic.
The fiber of wool is composed of num-
beress sections. or sheaths, each with
more or less jagged edges and each
one growing out of the other. These
sheaths form tube which. with its
ragged edges, explains the reason for
shrinking. Diluted acids roughen the
wool fiber; strong acids dsintegrate 1t.
Chloride of lime Injuries the fiber even
If cold; used hot. the fiber is destroyed.
Ammonia has the least injurious nc
tion on wool, therefore is the most sat
isfactory agent for cleansing 1t.
SILK is strong, elastic, lustrous dou-
BILE fiber. All alkalles net upon it. ac-
cording TO the kind, strength and tenn
perature Of the solution and the length
of time the silk is left in the solution.
The luster is first lessened, and the
fiber is finally dissolved, Dilute acids
roughen silk and strong acids ruin it.
Thus 1t will be seen that all garments
of silk and wool should be washed
with only the mildest soap. This
should be made into solution by cut
ting the soap into thin slices. dlssolv-
ing I'm hot water and adding to the
suds in which the garments are TO be
washed. This method is much better
than rubbing the soap directly on the
garment. Both silk and wool are in
jured by dry heat. SILK FIRST stiffens,
then breaks. so that the water in
which IL is washed should not be hot
Flannels should be washed in water
of the same temperature throughout
the process and should be hung TO dry
in a temperature the same as the wa
ter. The expansion and contraction of
the wool fibers, caused by change in
temperatures. make flannel thick. Tep-
id water and n moderate temperature
for drying and the best white soap
added to the washing water are simple
rules to observe in washing woolen
garments.
The vegetable fbers, such as cotton
and linen, are of a woody nature,
tough. strong and not so easily af-
fected by chemicals. For this reason
cotton and linen materials are not so
soon spoiled by careless washing as
either silk or wool, and yet too much
soap, prolonged boiling I'm dirty water,
Indifferent rinsing and inattcntion to
stains soon make tho best cotton or
linen dingy and unattractive. One of
the commonest neglects In ordinary
washing is that the water is not
changed often enough. Garment after
garment is washed in water so satu-
rated with dirt that It is impossible to
make IL remove any more, This wash
ing is followed by careless rinsing in
only one water which does not begin
to take out all the soap. If the bluing
follows. as it too often does, this rims.
ing in soapy water, the clothes are
very liable to be stained with iron

case If Prussian blue is used. This
substance Is salt of iron, and with
an alkali such as there is in soap

NO FARMERS TRUST.

Those members of the Ohio House
OF Representatives who have opposed
81 state investigation of the increased
cost of living on the ground that such
an inquiry would be adverse TO the
farmers, are needlessly apprehensive
of the possible effect upon public sem
timent which the most searching in
quiry could have, as far ar farmers
are concerned. OF course there could
be nothing else than public sentiment
10 be reckoned with, because the
farmers of Ohio certainly have moth
ing to fear from the law or from
the state authorities. They do not
organize and maintain trusts. They
do not create and build up monopolies.
The people of this state who live in
cities and villages know that the
farmers do not league themselves to-
gether to establish and bolster up
artificial prices for the products of
their fields and orchards. Town dwell
lers understand that the crops are
marketed by individual growers at
prices which they 40 not create but
take as they find them. And in Ohio
cities there are many thousands Of
men who know from their own eX-
perienee or from that of their rela-
tives and close friends, how moderate
the profits or rewards of the farmers
have been, as class, taking one
year with another.
For these reasons II Is impossible to
preceive how harm could come to
farmers from the fullest investigation
OF the question of prices. They can
not even lose any part of the good
will of their city neighbors. If one re-
suit should be some movement from
the cities TO the country, or only a
check upon the usual drift of young
men and women from the farms into
the towns, there might be little inn
provement in the situation of the
average Ohio farmer i'm respent to
finding help in maintaining his farm
and planting and cultivating and
harvesting his crops. In any case hq
has no reason to fear the fullest publ
