GOOD ADVICE

Now, that the Legislative ses, sion have been cut down to 6C days, if the members of thal august body would only retaliate and cut down few of the use less Boards, cut down some ot salaries of too highly paid officals and abolish some of the offices. the state would soon have money enough for legitimate purposes. = Monticellonian.
 There IS some pretty good ad- vice here. If the next legislat- ure wants to immortalize itself, let 1t prune the expenses of the State. Magnolia Banner.
 Good advice, boys, good advice. Glad to hear you talking that way. Suppose we commence by abolishing that political set-fast known as the Railroad Commis- sion. Then we might take few side -swipes at tue Tax Commis- sion and a few other sinicures that is costing lots of money; and then we might step over and con- plete the job by letting the Agri- cultural schools at Magnolia and Monticello run themselves on a self-sustaining basis as was at first contemplated they should do. "Oh, 'ell!" did we hear you say? If you didn't say it it is a wonder. You know that it has not only got to be a fad but a disease as well, to knock the ot- her fellow. The idea is to cut salaries. abolish offices and re- trench in many other ways to keep down and cheapen taxes just so you do not bother us. Taxes are high and going higher, and we all admit that money can be saved by reforming our me- thods of spending money on our institutions and saving it to the taxpayer. Now if you two gen. tlemen are sincere in what you say, we'll see when the ax begin to cut, in your direction to relieve the pu) lie of the burden which you so, pply and truthfully port roySk .phonS Nowc

John P. Irish of San Francisco was cour sel before the state de- partment in the matter of a claim of an American client against one of the Latin American re- publics.
 The Latin republic didn't want to pay and there was a long dis. pute during which the repre- sentative of the southern coun- try claimed Irish had put a stain on his honor and said he intend ed to challenge Irish to duel.
 John Hay, then secretary of state, told Irish about the affair and asked: What will you do, Irish "'

ANSWERS TO QUERIES.

Greene: Nothing in the way of a
coloring preparation will accomplish
your desires. You could only succeed
in making your hair a golden shade
by bleaching it, and it is quite likely
that the shade would not approach a
natural golden color at all, but would
be n sort Of metallic yellow which
would be both unbecoming and arti.
fetal looking. My advice would be
10 take the best possible care Of your
hair, using q good tonic and reliable
shampoo mixture and not attempt to
change the color. You Will probably
regret IL If you do make such an at
tempt and you cannot then undo the
mistake.
M. E.: The best method for filing
Tip the bellows and restoring the
rounded contour OF the cheeks is TO
use good nourishing cream and gen.
tie massage, and especially TO be regu-
lar about this simple treatment. The
cream should be one that is easily abb
sorbed and not too light in quality; n
nourishng cream Ia rather heavy
one. Use tOiu NuteT lIttI. anu dEOiN
too much hot water and soap scrub
bling.
Country Reader: You can make oat-
meal soap as follows: Shave up
enough pure white soap to make a
cupful; put this in n granite dish and
pour over 1t one cupful of boiling wa
ter; let it stand till the soap is melt
ed, then add one ounce lemon Juice
and enough finely ground oatmeal to
make smooth paste; roll into small
balls to harden. or put into any small
receptacles that will make smooth
cake. and set away till hard.
Mrs. p. n. g.: Claret shampoo is
composed OF the whites or yolks OF
three eggs to one pint OF claret. The
mixture should be slightly beaten to
break up the eggs and then be used as
you would any ordinary shampoo mix
ture. This Is said 20 keep black hair

This insect has predaceous enemies,
one OF the most important OF which is
the large digger wasp or cicada kill

stings the adult cicada and carries It
away to it's underground nest to serve
as food for the young wasps. The

It's purity depends the purity OF the ma

that Calumet Is pure from start TO finish.

Brood No. ii. of the periodical CT
cada or 17-year locust. Tibicen septen-
deetm Linn, was scheduled to appear
in the central portion Of Connecticut
In 1911. so we were on the watch for
1t. The station collection contains
examples OF this brood collected IN
Branford In 1894, by DR.. w. G. Stur-
gis, then botanist of this station. But
in 1894 no attempt was made to OBJ
tain records or to study the distribu-
lion OF the insect in the state. In
1908, Brood N. was expected. and
though we made many observations
and inquiries. we did not obtain a
single record
Consequently, 1911 seemed to afford
an excellent opportunity to collect
data, and In addition to the observa-
tons made by the Office force. much
information was gathered from other
sources.

ing the old shells hanging there.
they produce no appreciate injury TO
the trees except the splintering OF
the twigs caused by the females in
laying their eggs Several correspond

das were eating up their trees.
But as the adults are sucking insects,
they could at most only suck out
little OF the sap. and could not deyour
any OF the tissues In laying eggs,
however. by means Of the sharp. tough
and horny parts of the ovipositor, the
female is able to puncture the hard
wood and lay eggs in it. The ovipos-
stor consists Of three spear-shaped
pieces or blades, the lateral ones hav-
ing serrated edges for cutting. These
pieces slide lengthwise upon each 9TH

There Is damage to the trees. no

roots. but this injury Is difficult TO
observe or estimate, and probably is
usually attributed to other causes.
The greatest damage noticed by
the writer was where peach trees had

OF the fruit caused the twigs to break

broke very readily from their own
weight. Nearly all hung, however
