Simmons Case Is
Again Reversed.

jackson, Miss, April 6.-For
the second time the Supreme
Court has reversed and remand
ed the case of J. E. Simmons VS..
State. Simmons is Pike county
farmer who stands charged with
an assault on his eleven-year-old
daughter.
A few months ago the Su-
preme Court reversed his case
Oh the ground that incompetent
testimony had been admitted.
The defendant next secured a
change of venue to Simpson
county, and was again convicted,
his punishment being fixed at
life imprisonment. This time
tie Supreme Court finds errors
in the instructions as to what
the jury might believe about cir
cumstartial evidence, and sends
the case back for another trial.

Poultry Business
Is Growing

1.-THE poultry business is COM
mencing to pick up" remarked
a poultry breeder a few days ago.
This is fact, and not since
March, 1913, has there been such
a demand for eggs for Matching.
Poultry breeders, however have
raised the price of eggs, partlcu-
larly when their birds won hon.
ors at the recent poultry shows.
The demand is by no means
confined to any one breed. Many
inquiries are being made for
Rhode Island Red, White Ply
mouth Rock, Wyandottes, Lang
sham, Cochin, Brahma and Or.
pington, both white and black.
Nearly all who desire to hatch
out chicks are going to local
poultrymen. Prices here are
s. to so per sitting of fifteen
eggs. The purchaser finds it
much cheaper, however, than
paying from $3.50 to s. per sit
ting for eggs from the North.
No other chickens have shown
a larger increase in the number
of breeders than the Leghorns
during the past six months, anc
the White Leghorns in particular
! The reason for this is, no doubt,
that the city people keep chickens
principally for the egg yield, and
the Leghorn appeals to then
more than any other breed be-
cause of size.-Daily States.

Berry Crop A Success.

Amite City, La.-Barring un-
favorable weather shipments of
strawberries from Tangipahoa
parish will be going forward TO
Northern markets in carload lots
beginning with the first of next
week. Never before in the his
tory Of the fruit industry Of Tan :
gipahoa have prospects been so
bright as at this period for sue
cessful season. The farmers
over the parish are highly elated
over the prospects, and it is the
general opinion among the grow
ers and business men that the
parish will enjoy a period of
prosperity during the next twelve
months as a result Of, the fruit
crop.
While it is admitted that the
recent cold spell will have the
effect of shortening the season,
the increase in prices. it is con-
tended, will overbalance what
ever loss was sustained from the
freeze. The farmers have been
assured that a recurrence OF last
years box shortage will be i'm
possible this year. The railroad
and express company have prom

tation facilities, and the hamper

Times Democrat and
Picayune Consolidate.
From Sundays Times-Democrat.

From Sundays Times Democrat.
With the vision before them
of bigger, d stronger, better
newspaper than the New Or
leans field has ever known, the
business community Sunday re-
ceived the announcement Of the
consolidation OF the Times Dem
ocrat and the Picayune with a
degree of satisfaction that over
Swallowed the natural touch of
sadness at the loss of the Older
newspaper.
The announcement of the
union of the two newspapers did
not come as complete surprise
to the business men. Negotia-
tionS for The consolidation of the
two newspapers had been pend
ing some days, and five or six
days prior to the signing of the
final papers, rumors relating to
the transaction got into circula-
ton. But the rumors, as ru,
mors are wont to do, presented
the worst side of the case. The
story was told as story Of loss,
of trouble, of the death of a news
paper.
With the official statement of
the consolidation, however, and
a glimpse of the comprehensive,
constructive plans of the men
who had engineered the merger,
the city's businessmen began to
get a different view of the trans
action.
To begin with, the cost of pro-
ducing newspapers has increas-
ed by leaps and bounds during
the past few years. At the same
time the demands of the reading
public upon the newspaper for
improved service have become
more and more eXacting with in
creasing competition. AS con

newspaper in New Orleans, anc
for that matter in almost every

Will Entertain Queen.

fessed his extreme distaste for
the formalities and ceremonies
that are necessarily part of his
daily life, scenes destined by
the irony of fate to be the first
occupant Of the White House to
be called upon to entertain
reigning Queen. Some time
back the cable dispatches told of
an intended visit OF Queen Flea
nor of Bulgaria to the United
States. These have now been
officially confirmed and the time
Of the visit fixed for next month.
1t will not be the first time that
the anointed Of the Lord have
visited the United States. Most
memorable of all the visits Of
royalty was that Of the Prince of
Wales, late King Edwrrd VII,
The Grand Duke of Olenburg, a
reigning sovereign, paid a visit
to this country many years ago.
Don Pedro Of Brazil, Prince
Henry of Prussia, brother of the
German emperor; the Duke of
Connaught, uncle of King
George, several Russian grand
dukes, and the Infanta Eulalia Of
Spain and numerous other repre-
sentatives Of royalty have been
here from time to time. Even
Car Ferdinand of Bulgaria. the
consort of Queen Eleanor, has
been a visitor to the United States.
But Queen Eleanor will have the
distinction of being the first
reigning queen who ever stepped
foot in this country.
The visit of Queen Eleanor is
not to be a visit of state. Nor is
she coming over to be entertained
by the social lights in New York
or Newport. The primary pur-
pose Of her visits to inspect the
hospitals and kindred charitable
organizations in this country.
These are matters in which in
terests Of her whole life have
been conferred. While in this
city she will confer with the Of
ficials of the Red Cross society.
Not only is her Majesty intimate.
ly acquainted with Red Cross
work, but she is an expert nurse
with years Impractical experience.
In the Russo-Japanese war
Queen Eleanor, who at that time
was Princess Eleanor of Reuss,
wore the Uniform of the Red
Cross Sisters and followed an
ambulance train sent out by the
Grand Duchess Vladimar. Thru
out the entire war Princess
Eleanor lived on board this train
travelling back and forth with the
armies in Manchuria and staying
always as near as possible to the
actual scene of conflict. Or
more than one occasion the win.

THERE IS A BEWILDERING CHARM
ABOUT PARTISAN NEGLIGEES

"Une Tasse de The dams P1ntimite"
Is an elastic phrase that may be
stretched to cover anything from a
cup of tea with ones closest friends
in the intimacy of the boudoir to an
afternoon gathering with music and
the tango for a visiting grande
duchesse or a royal prince. At this
season, however, 1t usually signifies
that one will be received in the bou-
doir and en- deshabille, for in January
and February, Paris Is very much In

city is officially dead, according to
the Fashionable Intelligence. and So
ciety is supposed to be amusing itself
on the toboggan slides of San Moritz
or at the Casino at Monte Carlo,
But there are many Parisiennes
who agree with the Early Victorian
lady who said that Switzerland is a
sweet country, but the climate is so
cold" and who find 1t very pleasant
to rest in Paris after the fatigue Of
the autumn season. For them the

THE QUIET HOME WOMAN
AND HER HAPPINESS

The quiet woman in the home Is
constantly under fire from her more
cIamorous sisters in the outer world
on the score that her sheltered life
secludes her from "the vital work of
the world"
This argument always sounds good.
But one potent fact Is always-and
purposely-lost sight of-that for a
woman to live and toll that the chill
dren of her own blood may grow
strong and efficient Is just as vital
as for a woman to live and toll that
her employer may grow stronger and
richer, or for a woman to live and
toll that other peoples children may
grow stronger and efficient.
The goal of woman's attainment de-
ponds on where and how she finds
herself placed, and many woman
on the platform firing her innuendoes
at the woman In the home would
give all she has to have what the
woman has whom she is firing at.
What sounds like very clever argu-
ment is, sometimes, but cover for
disappointed hopes and tragic story.

What Walking Will Do

Walking will correct many of the
most common complaints of woman
kind It is one of the best of tonics.
1t will make cheeks pink without
rouge. 1t Will help in the cure Of con-
stipation and indigestion. It will
make the lean plump and the fat thin.
says the Camden Daily Courier.
This may sound paradoxical. but II
Is true, nevertheless. The thin girl
should walk until she has aroused q
good appetite. which she should sat
isfy with good nourishing food, such
as eggs and milk.
The girl who Is too fat should walk
briskly until she has induced a pro-
fuse perspiration. She should then
take a good sponge bath or alcohol
rub, but she must curb her appetite
and limit her diet.
AS a rule. fieshy people eat too
much. especially between meals. They
should eat only at regular meal times
and even then should limit the amount
taken, eschewing especially the fat
producing foods, such as sweets, pas
try and potatoes.
