When Walls Are Damn,

The walls Of cupboards and pantries
are often damp on wet or sultry days
without apparent reason when other
sections of the kitchen wall will be
comparatively dry. The best device for
any wall that is inclined to damp"
Is to make it impervious to moisture
by applying varnish Of one part
shellac and two parts naphtha.

MAY FINISH -FOUR TOP
FLOORS OF MILLS BUILDING.

Four final stories on the Mills build
ing will probably be finished this fall
and occupied as offices. When the four
top stories were added to the building,
they were left unfinished. Gen. Arson
Fills said at the time that when the
business developed to such a point
that it warranted finishing of the four
upper floors, they would be finished
and offered for rent. H. B. Stevens,
agent for Gen. Mills, says that the
general is more than satisfied with his
Investment and that he thinks the
upper floors will be completed during
the. coming fall, judging from the way
the building has been filling up this
year.

Blind AS a Kitten; Girl
Who Loves An Aged Man

This little girl is passing through
the same stage as the kitten. Born

With an innocence and ignorance
that are appalling, she Is standing on
the brink of a precipice, and how her
little world will condemn her If she
makes misstep in her blindness, and
goes over!
= am almost afraid to tell him No. -
she says, and therein lies a tragedy.
She knows down in her heart that his
attentions are not honorable. She has
been well brought up, and the warn

ears when she meets him.
But he is older, and commands all

often lax in their attendance, and am
sore afraid the guardian angels OF
this little girl are forgetting their
charge at a time when their vigil
should be most unceasing.
Mother Should Know.
If her mother knew the heart of the
little girl better, she would not issue
a command, and then rest secure, be-
Ieviug her command could not be dis
Obeyed. She would know that the man
who will make love to a girl 20 years

nine weeks will not let a mothers aye

different story. But the facts in the

her orders are obeyed.
She would know that the heart of a
girl is wilful; that, beginning with
the age of Is, girls begin to dream.
and they mistake many men for the
hero of their dreams before the real
hero appears.
She wouldn't expect a little blind
kitten to heed an order to stay away
from the fire. She would remove 1t
from all proximity to the blaze. And
she should take as final and decisive
action in saving her daughter.
Mothers often moan after the trag-

If the mother of this misguided little

When mother faces the realization
of the latter with all its sad results,
she is often more to blame than the
little blind kitten girl left in her

Grand Jury Report.

Hon. J. H. Mitchell, Judge of
the First Circuit Court District
of Mississippi:
We, the grand jurors in and
for the County of Lee, at the
November term, 1912, beg leave
to submit to you, this, our final
report:
We have been in session and
attending to our duties for eleven
days; during this time We have
issued subpoenas for 254 wit
nesses, and have examined be-
fore our body, 161 witnesses, re-
turning into open court, fifty
three indictments. A great
many cases have been by US re-
ferred back to the Justices OF
the Peace in the county for
final determination.
We have examined the books
of the county officers, as is re-
CURED of US, and so far as we
have been able to ascertain, find
them neatly and correctly kept.
We have exomined the Jail and
find that it is kept in a good
sanitary condition and that the
prisoners therein have been cared
for properly, receiving whole
some food and proper medical at
tention.
We have examined the county
poor house, by committee, and
find that the unfortunate inmates
therein, are kindly and properly
cared for and seem to be con-
tented.
The pension roll has been ex-
amined by US and so far as we
are able to ascertain, no one is
drawing a pension who is not
entitled to it.
We find that the public roads
of this county are in much bet
ter condition than heretofore and
that the oyerseers in charge
thereof are doing much better
toward performing their duties.
We recommend that the toilets
in our county court house should
be kept in a more sanitary man
ner. t.a,
We desire to express our
thanks to the able and efficient
County Attorney for his services
rendered to us in the grand jury
room and for the assistance rem
dered by him in the examination
of witnesses before our body.
We also express our thanks to.
the kind and courteous consider
alton given to us by the able
District Attorney in the dis
charge of his official duties in
connection with our de'iberation.
And last, we sincerely desire
to express to your honor. our ap-
probation of the full, complete
and lucid charge given to us on
the day that we were impannel-
led and to thank you for your
kind consideration and respect
of our body during this term of
court.
And now having fully reported
our acts and doings while sitting
as a grand jury. we respectfully
ask to be discharged.
