The Brookhaven Leader, discussing the criticism coming from
certain quarters of Gov. Brewer for his Investigations of the peni-
tertiary, rings the bell" and in a cold, dispassionate manner puts
to shame his critics. The Leaders position will no doubt annoy the
little pack who take their orders from the Jackson ring. The Leader
has been a most potential factor in the political advancement OF
Senator Vardaman. Honestly believing in the principles advocated
by Vardaman, and in the man, it has consistently supported his pol
icies and been his loyal friend.
There are journalistic oppotun;sts in the state supporting, or
pretending to support Vardaman and "Vardamanism" for quite a diff
ferent reason. The latter have swung on Nardaman's political coat
tails and will hold tight until they see or think they see a waning OF
his fortunes and when that time comes, if il ever does. just watch the
wolf bunch tear and rend him.
The Issue, the leader of the pack, poses as the. expositor of
Vardamanism, much to the Senator's disgust, we verify believe.
Mark the prediction: The Issue before many moons have
waxed and waned-if it lives so long and remains under preset man.

What fashion DEGREES the ladies' shall wear, is exciting more
comment today than ever before. Men who dare to discuss this
dangerous subject comment more on what is not worn than what i
worn. The Commercial Appeal says that it is all time thrown away

that which they do not like, regardless of the mutterings of down
trodden man. 1t is true that the record is silent as to any COM

Senator Nardaman certainly pleased his friends in Mississippi
when he bolted the rule of the democratic caucus on the features of
the income tax. standing out for a higher tax on large incomes. AS
the bill now is it provides a graduated tax to 4 per cent on incomes
above 100000. Senator La Toilette holds out for a maximum tax
of at least 10 per cent. and it was Vardaman who led the revolt from
the democratic side. The bill would now only tax an income Of
one hundred thousand per cent.
We think Vardaman and those who joined with him m right
The fact is, that in but few cases could a man honestly earn 81 $4,000
in this country, but be that as it may, the man with the great big
income should be taxed much more heavily, proporionrtely, than
the man with a medium income. The man with the big income can
spare a few thousand dollars out of it much more conveniently than
the man with a small income can spare a few hundred. We hope
the bill will be amended along the lines for which Vardaman and
the other insurgents commended.

The high cost of living, the boil weevil. as we'll as good COM
mon sense brings home to our people with renewed force the lesson
of something else besides cotton. The theory that it is cheaper to
buy corn and meat than it is to raise them is entirely illogical and
out of harmony with the ordinary rules of business practice. Those
who have been reared in stock countries and those who are well &C
quainted with the requirements in the way of lands, water, grasses
and climate. assert that Mississippi is equal to the best stock-raising
state in the Union. Other sections are making money by raising
cattle, hogs and horses, and why should not we do SO? Certainly
W could find no section where there would be less wintering and
where there would be as little care and attention required.
The price of meat will coerce many into stock raising. AT no
of them abandoned. will be set in grasses and great droves of horses
and herds of cattle will browse upon them and it is then that the
greatest and most opulent period of our state will be experienced.

Now plaster your face and
neck with a pure cold cream.
Don't be stingy with it; rub it in
with soft upward and circular
strokes and wipe off all the SUI
perfluous cream.
If you find that your ice and
cream have not given you enough
color, you can put just a very
little rouge on each cheek. Most
women who use rouge use the
kind that comes in colored grease
sticks. Put little dab upon
each cheek bone near the eyes
and tiny bit on your chin. Now
take a clean bit of cloth and
softly spread this upward toward
the eyes and off toward the ears.
Some girls use a little rouge
on their ears, as a tinted cheek
and white ear is apt to make one
look tubercular or anaemic.
Carefully examine your face in a
hand glass to see that it is not
in any way "patchy," then dust
your face and neck all over with
powder-and again, don't be
stingy!
After this take your eyebrow
brush, and carefully brush out
your eyebrows and wipe off your
lashes with a tiny cloth between
your thumb and forefinger.
If your eyebrows are light in
color, or thin, apply a little
mascara, which is a water color
! and parfantIv borp,Iacc Won nom
buy it at any drug store.
II your lips are pale apply a
little of the tinted cold cream.
This will be good for them, as
we'll as making them look better.
Leave all your powder on until
after you have combed your hair,
then take powder puff, or bet
ter, the soft little brush which is
used on a baby's hair, and brush
off all the superfluous powder,
using upward strokes until the
very last, then going over the
whole face quickly with down
ward strokes.
I'll wager after all this is
done, if you do it carefully, the
grimmest-eyed old bachelor will
not be able to detect the slightest
art in your makeup, and he will
probably go around telling every
body what a pretty girl you are
so natural and unartificiai!
Go ahead, girls, and do
everything you can to en-
nance your beauty, but re-
member that tho cleverest
and almost always the pref
tiest girl is the one who
makes art look Ike nature
at her best.
