Married States
 Main Witness
Joe Nickens Trial Comes To Sud- den Halt When Wife Tells Ot
 Her Marriage.

The trlal Of Joe NlcKeNS, up- on an indictment for arson, came to a sudden and unexpected halt Thursday morning ln the Jackson Circuit Court, when from the witness stand, Mrs. Julia Thomas that was, but Mrs. Joe Nickens that is, announced that she was the wife of de- fendant and thus disqualified as a prosecuting witness.
 She appears to be a woman past middle age, while Joe Nick ems is hardly of age, but anyhow, they were married here January 26th, by Esquire Loftin upon a marriage license issued in Law renee county, and which witness exhibited upon the stand. With the prosecutions case thus weakened and the point be- ing raised that under the cir cumstances, witness might be compelled to testify, the jury was excused until afternoon, when the court would rule upon this point.
 The defendant was indicted jointly with Alec House, for ar son and accessory before the fact to arson, in the burning of the Horton mill about year ago. A severance of the cases was , asked and granted and eleven members of the trial jury were secured before adjournment Wednesday afternoon. The mar riage of Nickens to the states leading witness was unknown to his counsel, Judge M. M. Stuck ey, Grant & Mack, until just be- fore the trial of the case.
 In the jury trial of Hood Churchman, charged with as- saulting his wife, on appeal from a justice court, defendant was found guilty of simple assault and fined $25. He was defended by l.. L. Campbell and for the state Prosecuting Attorney Er- win was present.
 Charley Johnson, q local negro, who gets into trouble frequent ly, was given a jury trial Wed- nesday for resisting an officer, and came clear. He also pied guilty in a case for profanity, and was fined $1. Another case against him was continued for 7 the term and set for the fourth Monday; another for drunken nes in a public place, was nolle pressed and another for assault and battery, in which he pied guilty was continued.

PLUMPNESS NOW IN ORDER
Day OF the slim and "Slouchy" Wom-
an Has Disappeared for the
Present.

The craze for slimness Is passing,
and the thin. bony woman Is disap-
pearing before the plump. bonny type.
Women oheerfully own now to a
waist OF from 26 inches to SO inches.
in fact. the very slim. ''slinker-slouch"
woman is now considered to be ugly
and deiormed.
The craze for slimness, a beauty
specialist said. produced the irritable
woman. the nervous woman. the ncu'
rotlc woman. the poseuse.
ITO be healthy" said the specialist.
"a woman should. as everybody
knows. have a full bust and an un-
cramped waist.
IF woman adopts the kind OF
'slinker-slouch figure her chest con-
tracts. and nothing is worse for the
general health than contracted
chest.
III you want to grow beautiful or
to retain your beauty. do not Indulge
In sarcasm"
This is the advice given by another
beauty doctor.
Why should anyone be habitually
sarcastic?" she asked. The person
who is always on the alert TO take
It out of someone else has probably
Just as many faults as those on whom
he or she looks with contempt.
The sarcastic woman has the least
chance of any woman to keep beauti-
full. Nothing draws cut the wrinkles
as much as a sneering countenance.
"A woman who really has suffered
can retain her beauty even though she
is somewhat lined. but the sarcastic
woman can never hope to be beauti-
ful She becomes dyspeptic and
miserable"

The milker himself must b. neat In

For instance, portrait of II blonde

GOOD CHANGE.
Coffee to Postum.

Postum as daily beverage, is grow

BY an Ills young lady. She writes:

Marble Windo US.

Remarkably beautiful effects are Sc
cured BY the use of marble as a
means OF transmitting light instead OF
glass This has been accomplished
by new process which has been de-
vised by an engineer of Hamburg, W.
Engle lie has succeeded in making
plates of marble no more than three
millmetres In thickness and for the
use designated II Is available up to
90 miliimeters thick The suitability
of marble for this purpose was real
lied some time ago. but the difficulty
encountered was that of securing the
marble in slabs OF sufficient thinness.
These plates permit OF the passage OF
greater amount OF light than frosted
glass does and at the same time i'm
parts to the rays a much pleasanter
color Most opal glass imparts to the
light an undesirable greenish tinge.
while the light which passes through
the marble has reddish violet which
Is much pleasanter. After the marble
has been ground down to the desired
thickness Il is subjected TO an INNER
sion In oil under high pressure. and
the effects secured iri this manner are
said to be superior to those Of stained
glass.

Kinds Of Birds Eat the Destruc-
tive Cotton Parasite.

According To the biological survey,
department OF agriculture. orioles.
swallows and nighthawks are the most
important OF all tho birds known az
natural enemies OF the cotton boil
weevil. Insect specialists OF the bureau
have made extensive Investigations OF
the subject and have ascertained that
there are 90 kinds OF birds that eat the
weevil. The nighthawk. or bullbat.
catches the weevils on the wing In
considerable numbers. especially dur
Ing their migration. Tho orioles. barn
swallow. roushwing swallow, bank
swallow. clifr swallow ati the martin
are all persistent enemies OF the boil
weevil The peculiar value OF the swal
low to the cotton grower consists in
the fact that. like the nighthawk, II
captures boil weevils when flyiag over
the fields. which no other birds do.
Fiycntchers snap up the weevils near
trees and shrubbery Wrens hunt them
out when concealed under bark OF rub
bish Blackbirds catch them on the
ground. as do the kildeer, utlark,
meadow lark and others; while orioles
hunt for them on the bolls But II Is
the peculiar function OF swallows To
catch the weevils as they are making
long flights, leaving the cotton fields In
search OF hiding places In which to
winter or entering them to continue
their work OF devastation.

EASY TO HAVE sHAPeLY FEET

n fashionable shoemaker say that out
of every ten women who came In to
be ftted. not more than one has
shapely foot, and the greater propor-
tlon have more or less deformed ones.
Their feet have been spoiled by care

cramping shoes and by ungainly, un.
graceful walking
II you want to keep your feet m
shapely as nature made them. and
free from corns. calluses and similar
disngurements. observe the following
rules:
/. Never forget that the feet are
hard workers and have to bear the
burden of the whole body sit down
when tired DO not rest one foot at
the expense of the other.
2. Bathe the feet every night Use
soft warm water, and be liberal with
soap. a little salt AIDED to the bath
water braces and tones the muscles
and skin. few drops OF eau-de-co-
logne In tho rinsing water Is soothing
when tired.
g. Thoroughly dry tho feet dust
ing with mixture OF equal parts OF
boracic powder and the finest pow
dored starch
l. Massage the feet for a few min
utes every night. Begin at the toes
and rub with hrm. but gentle. pres
sure with an upward movement to.
ward the leg. Put little warm cocoa
butter on your hands. This treatment
helps to make the foot narrow and
arched and and ankle slender.
5. Change the stockings every day,
and see that they are not overdarned.
g. Never wear cheap shoe leather.
II Ia the reverse OF economical. See
that your shoes are well maze, and
not only wide enough. but sufficiently
long Short shoes are a frequent
source OF corns and bunions, Also
they cause the joints to contract and
enlarge and otherwise distort the foot.
DO not constantly wear the same
shoes. however comfortable they may
be.-Chicago Journal.

DO not let any fruit ripen on tho

Premature fruit stunts the growth.
Allow no ground In the garden to
lie Idle. As soon as one crop has been
picked. cloar the ground and plant an
other.
In dry, hot weather, keep the sur
face OF the soil In fne tilth. Hoe and
rake as soon as the ground dries after
rain and never under any circum'
stances allow a hard crust to form.
Begin fighting the weeds the mo-
mcnt your plants appear above ground.
