The New Orleans Picayune gave
our Pat Harrison nice scndolf last
week, by appearing his picture and
name in the gallery Of youthful prod
igies in the present Congress. It's
indeed rather singular how some
sof those staid old dailies will stand
+, aloof when young man is endeayor-
{, ing to force his way into public life,
but after he gets in how quick they
begin to smile upon him with their
Obseq dious attentions. To build a
successful political career, every man
needs the assistance of the press al
the lnitlatory stage of the game as
well as later on, when his victories
have compelled recognition. HoweY-
err, we are glad to sec these stiff
necked and starched old boys taking
notice, even though long deferred.

This is matter-of fact world and
a generation numbered with the av-
efage percentage Of human frailties,
50 often our picking of a candidate
has to drop below our real patriotic
desire, in order that we may have a
hand in shaping TIE government of
the country in which we dwell. SUI
fragists think of these pointers and
be decisive in this present senatori-
al campaign. Time is fastening and
the aspirants for the Office are all
about on parity so far as human
weaknesses are concerned. Consider
their Gains for greatness based on
Inherent and cultivated genius.

The Herald has been keeping close

we have thought Mr.. Vardaman S

While our editor was away last week
he learned things which confirm us
more strongly in this belief. Said

A Discarded Statesman EhaIiutiag.

Importance of Good Supervisors.
Scissored.
One of the most important officers
to he nominated in the August pri-
mary is that of the board Of Super
visors. We discuss the qualifications
OF our candidates for U. S. Senator,
State Legislator and many other olfi
ces, but seldom stop to consider the
requirements for good Supervisor.
This is an Office that has strictly
home affairs to look after, while our
U. S. Senator lust look after reve-
nue. to support our National Govern
ment, regulate r. r., and a great
many things we know little or roth

interest OF our homes and affairs
that involve the w'lfareof our daily
lives, to consider even to the taxing

The unmarried woman works for

ones, for love OF some beautiful or
benefcient profession. for sweet mer-

horror of dependence upon those on

While man admlres womanly

much more-a good square meal cook

wife have little of no knowledge of
the art of housekeeping, domestic
economy, or is a poor cook, be her

Thinos NoLodv Knows,

There are many strange facts abo,n
animals which no one has ever seemed
able TO understand or explain. Here
are a Few of them: ...'.',
A fly will crawl to the top OF q win
dOwpane. fly back 10 the bottom and
crawl up again. Hardly ever does 1t
dy up and crawl down.
Hens scratch for food always with
the sun behind them so that its. rays
will reflect on the tiny seeds. Yet a
blind hen. for which this reason does
not hold. always manages to get the
sun behind her also when she
scratches.
Cats hardly ever lie with their feet
to the fire. In most cases they lie in
stead with their left side turned to-
ward It But dogs invariably lie with
their fore paws to the fire.
A mouse overlooks perfectly safe
epod supply, sufficient for a meal or
two. to enjoy the perilous pleasures OF
an unlimited store. 1t will hide near
the food and come out to nibble when
it Is hungry, for it IS not true that a
mouse runs to tts hole at the 6xst
alarm
