Hudson Cars Are
Coming BY Express

CPECIAL trains OF nine cars. each
- containing four Hudson auto
mobiles have been commits
stoned especially for the A. Elliott
Ranney Company, New York Hudson
Dealers
Up to date It has been impossible
TO get the cars into New York by
freight and deliver satisfactorily to
buyers, owing to the fact that 1t
takes from six to ten days for a
shipment from Detroit to arrive in
New York. II takes only thirty-six
hours BY express, and It is to take
care Of the great volume Of orders
for these cars that express shipments
have been made ever since the first
1915 Hudson car left Detroit. This
condition will continue up to about
the first Of September. and seems to
be the strongest kind Of commentary
on the steadily increasing popularity
Of the Hudson car.

"Of course" said the rustic.

THE LEOPARD SPOTS.

Thomas Dixon's new play, "The
Leopard Spots" will be seen here at
Auditorium night of April 23rd.
'The Leopard's Spots" in book
form the only answer to "Uncle Toms
Cabin" ever written, gave to the
South a voice in the forum of the
world. The play does more. It gives
the people of the South a full reai. u
ton of existing conditions and a stir
ring prophecy of the future of The
negro and his relations to the white
race.
This intensely gripping play is a
characterization of the novel by it's ia
nous author, Thomas Dixon the best
informed man in American today on
this question. Mr.. Dixon has given
twenty years Of his life to the study
of this subject.

where space is left for the feet to
go through. These are extreme but
smart in their appearance, and very
conf Portable, but, in reality, they give
no more width for walking than the
skirts which we have been wearing.
Another skirt hung straight and full
from the waist with the fulness con-
fined at the bottom by cuff of the

Sits of the goods, was worn. An
other skirt was draped up in front by
means of one deep pleat across,

SUITS WITH
MANNISH CUT
The Balkan Blouse a Paris FavOrite
-TrOuser Skirts an Extreme Style


New York, April 9Th.
Every French dressmaker~ has GER
tain characteristics which can hardly
be mistaken by the people who are
keeping a close watch upon the styles
and the different gowns put out by
each establishment.
Pauuin, in her recent exhibition,
showed a decided tendency toward
long, fiat back, and greater fulness
at the sides of the skirts, making a
noticeable difference in the silhouette.
Some of her new models had a
very bouffant effect at the hips, and
then a tightness below the knees
which fared out at either side OF the
feet. This was usually caused by
set-in pleats or ruffies. This same
couture shows a decided fondness for
the high waistline.
On the other hand, Paul Poiret,
who last fall brought out the minaret
tunic so successfully, to his own sur
prise, as we'll as everybody else's, is
now showing skirts and gowns which
fall straight to the floor without a
break. Some skirts are so loose and
large at the waistline that the sus-
penders of the same material are as
much of a necessity as an ornament.
The Balkan style, which seems to
have originated on this side of the
water, is taking quite hold in Paris,
and is favored by Poiret. AS a re-
suit, he made very handsome oyster
white linen dress with waist or jer-
kin falling straight well below the
hips and fastening, on each Shoulder,
with a large jet button. 1t was belted
loosely with a wide-patent leather
belt. The skirt was straight-hanging
and rather wider than those we have
been accustomed to.
The designers, this year, have TAX

of life-from mems blouses to a

inspired a tailored suit for women.
The front of the jacket of this suit
was cut very short, sloping from I'M
der-arn seams and fastening with
one large black button over the chest.
In the back the jacket fits smoothly at
the shoulders and fall free and loose
below. The armholes are very large
and bound with black, the sleeves
appear to emerge as though they
were not fastened in. This whole
garment is bound with black braid;
the collar is black silk and the vest,
Of red satin, closes with a double row
of black buttons
Short jackets, either Elton or boil
ero, are models in which one cannot
be mistaken when choosing this sea-
son. The smart model, which I have
used for my illustration, is made of
black-and-green plaid suiting. The
short jacket is heightened by a grad
uated circular ruff1e, very narrow in
the front and longer in the back. The
sleeves have a circular cuff. The
skirt is made with fitted peplum,
having a graduated circular ruff1e at
tached which curves upward in the
front on the same line as the Jacket.
The lower part of the skirt has a
slight draping that is visible from
under the tunic. The jacket with it's
ruf1e, and the ruff1e to the tunic. are
lined with sage-green satin, and all
are bound with a bias piece of the
plaid. A faring collar of Swiss gives
dainty ultra touch to the suit whose
cut in itself is distinguished.

LETTER FROM Mr.. MccULLY

Berlin, Fla. February 4, 1914.
To the Co-workers of the Demonstra-
tive Work:
| am doing all | can to visit you.
But my territory is large and it takes
sometime to get around To make a
success with the demonstration plots
there are two things essential. First,
the thorough PREPARATION of your plot
of land Second, selection of seed;
you should be very careful in the
selection of your seed, and if you
have any doubt of their termination,
you may know. what you are plant
ing. Marion county is fast coming to
the front in agriculture, and she bids
fair to stand at the head Of the col
umn in agriculture work this year.
| will be prepared in a few days to
furnish my demonstrators with in
structions how to build a hog vat at
a very small cost, and | would advise
every farmer who is raising hogs to
build one of these watts, and by using
Kress dip you can rid your hogs of
mango, lice and fleas, therefore max
ing your hogs thrive and grow in
healthful condition. Marion county
lost last year some twenty-five or
thirty thousand dollars worth of hogs
by hog cholera, and hog cholera is
created by feas, lice and mango. The
hog is easily raised, and it is quick
money, and will be a success if we
can keep away diseases.
am told that the little village of
Reddick has in its cold storage $4,000
pounds of pork. This means at least
$4,000 for the farmers.
| will write more relative to hog
cholera in the near future, for this
is a subject all farmers are interested
in. | trust this will be the most pros
porous year in our lives, and to make
it so let us all pull together for the
betterment of old Marion county N
every way We can.

The New York World. although
giving President Wilson a vigorous
and to all intents and purposes a
conscientious support. says that the
democratic party is the party OF
slavery, secession and rebellion.
Slavery existed long before the birth
of the democratic party. 1t was plant
ed on these shores by the mother
country. II existed north as well as
south, so If the system be a sinful
one why fasten it on a party that was
born long after its establishment.
Secession and rebellion grew out OF
the policy of states rights. If the
democratic party alone had advocated
secession and rebellion we would not
now be fighting over the issues or
rather the "reminiscences of the
Lost Cause"

WHEN THE LIGHT WAS DIM

passed to the beyond a few DAYS
since. He was the father of our In

and an ardent supporter of Mr.. Taft's
peace treaties. Some months before
his death he evidenced his greatness
by seeking to correct an error that he
felt he had committed in his Memo
ries of Fifty Years of Public Life,.'
written by him in recent years. He
concluded his book with this
language:
Il have no great fear of death, ex-
cept the natural dread of the physi-
cal pain which usually accompanies
it. | cetainly wish beyond any words
| have power to express that | could
have greater assurance that there
will be a reuniting with those we
love and those who have loved us in
some future world; but from my
reading of the scripture, and even
admitting that there is a hereafter,
| cannot find any satisfactory evil
dence to warrant such a belief.

the loved ones who have gone before,

am quite content to stay where l am
as long as l can; and finally, when
old Charon appears to row me over
the River Styx, | shall be ready to
CO."
A clergyman, a close friend of the
senator, says: In the last few months
his feeling changed completely. He
told me he believed in God and
Christ and Immortality, and added:
Il want to make at the first opportu-
nifty statement of my simple creed,
to be inserted after the last chapter
Of my recollections. to correct the
doubt expressed on dark day, when
the light was dim"
Great minds fear only tina (which
is evil; so it was that this man fear

mating from him that he feared
might do harm. And. in doing SO re-
minds us to guard against conclu-
sions reached when the light is dim
