The Common Towel.

This household infection spreader
is abhorrent and repuIsive to a
person who has been used to an in
dividual towel. It is difficult to
understand how any one can wipe
his face on soiIed, damp towel
that has been used by all the other
members of the household. But
custom is a great factor in moIding
habits and aIlayinq prejudices,
hence the necessity of pointing out
at least one reason why the common
towel is dangerous. There are
many germs which will attack the
eyes and cause inflammation, pro-
viding the eyes are in favorable
condition for the germ to develop
at the time of its introduction. "A
germ which at one time will grow
in the eye and cause inflammation
will at another time be perfectly
harmless. Germs which are HARM
less to oneself may be exceedingly
poisonous to another person and
cause dangerous Inflammation Of
the eyes. For bygienic reasons the
common towel should be abolished
in every home.

MISSISSIPPI HAS LED WAY.
Mississippi has led all of the
States of the Union in many great
reforms, and the members of the
present Legislature have an oppor-
unity before them to make still
greater record for reform. Among
the reforms that originated in
Mississippi and that have been
copied by other States are these:
/. The adoption of a Constitu-
tion that eliminated the negro from
politics.
2. A doubls primary election
system that broke up the old con-
vention system and made boss rule
impossible in this State.

Items From Different Points Show
ing That Sentiment in Their
Favor is Spreading.

Good roads are the necessary ad-
juncts to progress. prosperity and
plenty in any section. The Leader
believes in them and wants Lincoln
county to have them to her bor-
ders.
Other adjoining counties will
follow suit afterward and join US
after seeing the benefits to be de-
rived. Counties all over the State
are building good roads and adding
to their roads already built. Let's
keep Lincoln in the front rank.

COULD Do GREAT GOOD
Next Session Of the Legislature Has
Grave Problems Before It-Op-
portlnities for Solution.

jackson. Miss. Sept. 23.-The
next session of the Mississippi
Legislature. which will convene in
January, will be given an oppor-
tunity to enact more constructive
legislation and to bring about more
real reforms in the State than any
other lawmaking body that has ex-
listed since the adoption of the Con-
stitution in 1890.
For the past several years the
State has been cursed with personal
politics. Economic questions have
been ignored. and the State has
suffered as a consequence.
The Legislature which will con-
vene in regular session in January
will have chance to put aside
personal politics and render the
State great service. Many new
laws are needed.
Among the legislative problems
that will have to be solved, either
by the existing Legislature or the
one that will follow, is the taxation
question. The State is running
behind in its revenue. The treas
ury has found that it is impossible
to make both ends meet. The State
is spending more money than it
receives from the taxpayers. Bonds
have been issued to pay the running
expenses OF the State government.
This is a condition that should not
exist. No business concern could
be operated Tor six months with
such loose system. Ii the State
had been a chartered corporation it
would have been thrown into the
hands of receiver.

him to emphasize beauty. OF course the major
tty of our sitters want us to paint them as beaut
full as is consistent with the laws of art. A
woman of thirty has developed. She has learned
the value Of dress, how to attire herself in a
manner that enhances any physical charms she
may possess Girhood lacks the development Of
more mature age. Therefore, Of thirty
may present far more attractive appearance
than the girl in her teens just past the twenty
mark.
"The woman beauty at fifty is less in evidence
than the handsome feminine In her teens or be-
low the age OF thirty. But have seen handsome
women at fifty; women whose features, whose
personalities and whose physical development
struck me as being amazingly handsome.
From my view I don't think dress has much to
do with good looks. The true lover of beauty
gazes and can enthuse over cut Of features and
tint OF complexion without dwelling on clothes
consider woman between the age OF eighteen
and twenty to be in the bloom of youth. Natur-
ally, youth is attractive it Is like rose in it's
brilliancy beneath a light morning dew"
