He was her idol He was her first
born, he was her love-born. He came
to her in the days when she loved her
husband without much thought of re-
speeding him. She was beginning to
regard him as something more than
lover when Leslie came, so it was diff
fercnt. When their daughter Vivian
was born, she was plainly annoyed but
wholly respectful Mr. Wrandall was
no longer the lover; he was her lord
and master. The head of the house OF
Wrandall was person TO be looked
up to, to be respected and admired by
her, for he was q very great man, but
he was dear to her only because he
was the father of Challis, the first
born.
In the order of her nature, CEaslis
therefore was her most dearly beloved,
Vivian the least desired and last in
her affections as well as in sequence.
Strangely enough. the three of them
ord Of conjugal endowments. Challis
had always been the wild. hayward
unrestrained one, and by far the most
lovable; Leslie, almost as good look
ing hut with scarcely noticeable
trace of charm that made his brother
attractive; Vivian, handsome, selfish
and as cherries as the wind that
blows across the icebergs in the north.
Chalis had been born with a widely
enveloping heart and an elastic con-
science; Leslie with brain and a
soul and not much of heart, as things
go; Vivian with soul alone, which be-
longed to God, after all, and not to
her. OF course she had heart, but it
was only for the purpose of pumping
blood to remote extremities, and had
nothing whatever to do with anything
so unutterably extraneous as love,
charity or self-sacrifice.
AS for Mr.. Redmond Wrandall he
was a very proper and dignitied gentle
man, and old for his years.
II may be seen, or rather surmised
that if the house of Wrandall had not
been so admirably centered under Its
own vine and fig tree, it might have
become divided against itsels without
much of an effort.

Married on the Train

On the 22nd of October 1914
Mr.. H. L. Howerton, of Client,
Ark, went to Vardaman, Miss,
on business. He was an old
bechelor of 73 that had managed
for over three score years and
ten to get by all the girls and
widows that had ever crossed
his pathway, and no doubt was
expecting to travel the remain
der Of the road in single blessed
ness, with no boss to direct his
wandering footsteps through
life's uneven journey to>the end.
But he met Mrs. Mary Brooks,
of Vardaman, and he was sud
denly awakened from his long
dream and had to surrender on
the spot. 1t was love at first
sight and the case was pronounc-
ed incurable.
For some reason he had to
take the first train for home,
proposed to take the handsome
widow of 55 with him. She was
of the same mind and they
teIephoned to Houston for the
Clerk to have a marriage license
at the depot and they were
brought down by Marshal Hill.
Rev. j. E. Gault, also a passen-
ger on the train, tied the knot
that made two hearts beat as
one.
Engineer Nix was asked tc
hold the train until the duty was
performed. Mrs. Pryer, of Cal
houn City, acted as brides maic
while Conductor Miller was best
man and sent them on their way
rejoicing.

Green-Manure Crops Must be
InOculated

Agricultural authorities say
that many farmers fail to OBJ
tain full benefit from turning
under legume crops for green
manure because of the lack Of
root nodules. The chief benefit
of Iegume crops is due to minute
soil bacteria which grow in
association with the roots of the
legume plant and convert the
nitrogen of the air into available
plant foad. Furthermore, with
each legume crop is associated
its own individual strain OF
material. For example, the
bacteria which grow upon the
roots of alfalfa will not develop
with the lima bean. In areas
over which any particular le-
gume has been grown for a
number of years it is generally
found that the soil is naturally
inoculated, but when nature has
not already provided the proper
bacteria in the soil artificial in.

COTTON
As Effected by The War and
The Boil Weevil

Much has been said and writ
ten concerning this troublesome
condition some wise, some other
wise-yet no solution has been
found whereby the difficulties
confronting the people of the
South can be overcome without
serious loss. Truly suggestions
have been made, if put into
operation, at once, would, in a
measure, accomplish the desired
ends; bat there, are too many
people of too many mind to get
together on any plan before the
opportunity presented now will
have passed to the rubbish heap
where all to many opportunities
have already gone.
To our way Of thinking the
best suggestion yet made Is the
mo cotton planted in 1915. "
Certainly this would eradicate
the boil WeeviI and advance the
the price of Cotton. Alu these

closely every condition affecting
the planting, growing and pick
ing of cotton is watched by the
different interests making up
the cotton market. 1t often hap
pens that a few showers of rain
will make a difference of half a
cent or more in the price Of
whatever cotton is on the mar
ket at that time, notWithstand-
ing the cotton directly affected
by these showers will not come
into eXistance for some months
to come. 1t is always supply
and demand that governs the
price of a commodity and this
takes into consideration future
prospects as nearly as human
reason can foretell.
1t has been suggested that a
reduction in the acreage would
tend to check the Weevil and aid
the price: On the contrary SO
far as the weevil is concerned,
this would only tend to make for
progress. In proof of this note
with what rapidity the WeeviI
crossed south Mississippi where
cotton is orl' grown in com
paratively smallpatches and these
often far between. Compare this
rapid advance eastward with the
movement northward, especially
/ in the delta and prairie sections
and you can readily see that the
weevil moves only SO far as he
finds it necessary to go in order
to obtain food and a suitable
place to rear his numerous
family.

THE graceful and practical modes OF
j the present time In outer gar
ments are unusually we'll suited to
furs, and fur coats have never been
cut on lines more impressive. But IL
is in trimmings and in fur sets that
dealers have been able to make their
most universal appeal.
The new long coats of velvet or
satin brocade have large. full collars
OF fur and cuffs so ample that when
the hands are brought together they
have the effect OF a muff. But gar
