MISS MOSELEY'S
 ART EXHIBITION

Miss Glennie Moseley who invited the art lovers of Birmingham to an eXhibi- tion of decorated china and water colors Thursday, was wise in her decision to again open her studio yesterday after noon. Int stormy skies, intermittent showers and chill winds of Thursday kept many from taking advantage of the op- portunity to visit her studio, but these unfortunate conditions were followed by day perfect from every viewpoint, and the studio was visited by scores of inter- ested people.
 Miss Moseley had decorated the larger room chiefly with examples of her own handiwork, though several vases filled wEh hr .sers gave a charming festive touch. The light there is excellent, a big alcove having the yellow walls, with a friese done in autumnal browns. In the adjoining room Miss Moseley's students were showing their work, an excellent col lection of dainty articles which combine utility and beauty in delightful fashion. Two of the students assumed charge of the punch table throughout the receiving hours
 China, which eXemplifies the many pos abilities of the ceramic art was shown by the hostess, whose visitors gave every evidence of approval, differing only in their preference as to the various objects A rose bowl which received many en- comiums is quaint in shape and has for ornamentation calla lilies. Another of different shape pictures an attractive sea- scape-gulls with outspread wings are treated near the rim of the vase and the whole theme is a delicate and lovely bit of workmanship. A punch bowl which vas greatly admired has a peculiarly rich and charming color scheme, a deep cherry shade and other tones of red making it unusual in ceramic interpretation.

LUNCHEON DANSANT
 A POPULAR INNOVATION

The cafe dansant which will be intro- duced at the Southern club today prom ises to be one of the most popular fea- lures of the season to the exclusive cir cle who enjoy the Saturday luncheons in the beautiful Tudor room. The success Of the innovation is assured at its very beginning, as the cafe is already lavishly patronized on Saturdays, the members finding it a convenient place to find an hours respite from business, their wives and women friends delighting in the charming. restful surroundings after a downtown shopping tour. The pres ence of the men crown the success of the dance feature. and it is believed that the luncheon hour with the combination of music and dancing will introduce a nov city that will delight the business men in the dancing set.
 A number of reservations have been made for the luncheon today, and with the sunshine of yesterday, others will ex- tend hospitality and the luncheon dan sant will be one of the smartest occa- sions of the early fall.

SUFFRAGE WORKERS
 FOR THE STATE FAIR

In the Woman's building of the Ala bama State Fair there has been for sev- eral years past a booth Taseevcd for the use of the suffragists whe carry on some Of the most successful of their propagan- da work at that time.

A Home Recipe For
 Removing Wrinkles

Who will blame the modern woman for trying to look as young and at should she be placed at disadvantage e in numerous ways by wearing wrinkles, if she can avoid these hateful marks of advancing age? Few women, however, know what to do to effectually rid themselves of wrinkles or sagginess. Most of the advertised preparations are un sa tisfactory and very expensive. But very simple and harmless home rem edy, which any woman can make, will work wonders where all the patent preparations fall.
 Buy an ounce of powdered saxolite at any drug store. Dissolve the whole ounce in half pint of witch hazel and use as wash lotion. The results are practically instantaneous. Marked im- provement is noticed immediately. after the very first trial. Wrinkles and sag ging arc corrected and the face feels so refreshed and smug-like

Has Few Pleasures

nave request to make for an in- valid girl of IS years, of age, who never mas walked Her father and mother are both dead. and she has no sister or brother. She can go no farther than we take her. Dob you think some one has a phonoSraph to pass on to this girl. who has so few pleasures in her young life? II so, will you give my name?

 While pieces of materials change hands daily through the instrumentality of the Corner, each season brings new supply, and there is not the shadow of a doubt that members of the Corner will let any scraps go to waste while there is Il pair of hands eager to make them into quilts. Who will send for the address of this young girl, then forward to her bundles of pieces that are of no use to the ownerP And should there be a phonograph lying idle. will not the one who has grown tired of it's music pass it along where it will be appreciated?

Oats Crop Increases

Hattiesburg, Miss, September 25.-(Spe- cia1.)-The oats crop for Forrest county for 1914 is more than a 200 per cent n- crease over the crop of the year previous, according to figures given out today by the secretary of the Commercial club. The club Is issuing a bulletin today urg- ing the farmers to plant oats again this season, so as to double even the 1914 crop. It is stated that in the face of $1.50 corn next year it would be the part of wisdom to plant oats now to feed to stock from May to August next year, while the corn crop is maturing. Home grown seed oats here are retailing at s1 bushel, while feeding oats are sold at 6S cents per bushel.

Chance to Aid a Musician

My daughter, with whom make my home has never been strong, and was blind for months. Her eyes were oper- ated upon last spring, and she is now able to see little, but not enough to read or sew. She dearly loves music, and longs so much for piano. She used to play by ear. Should you chance to hear of piano or violin that the owner no longer cares for and my daughter can have. it will brighten the long hours, and she could improve her talent. Of course, l know it is a great deal to ask for, but cannot refrain from asking for what I know will brighten her blighted life And child's walking chair as good new, which she would like some poor child to have. If mother will send her address she will send 1t to her. l should love to help your Corner, but the little I can do for my seven grandchildren, and who through the friends of the Corner

 Work at the State Fair

The new Italian ambassador, Count Mac chi di Ceere. his wife and two children, constitute an interesting foreign family that will arrive in America in a day or two. The count and countess, with suite of 19 secretaries and servants, notes the Washington Post, are due to arrive at New York on Sunday. They will come directly to Washington and will take pos session of the new embassy, formerly the residence of MT. Thomas Nelson Page, American ambassador to Italy. The coun- selor of the embassy, Cav. Borghetti, and the commercial delegate, Cav. Ceccato, will go to New York to meet the ambas sador.
 The new ambassador comes from a very old Roman family, which has given many cardinals to the church. He is a great favorite at court, where Countess Cellere is among the ladies seen at all func- tions.
 About q year ago Count Cellere was asked to accept the candidacy for Parlia- ment, which he declined upon being ap- pointed to the Washington post He is a knight of the Order of the Crown of Italy. and is a knight commander of the St Maurizio and St. Lazzaro, one of the most distinguished and oldest orders of Europe, founded in the sixteenth century by the house of Savoy.
 On account of his residence here as sec retary of the embassy some years ago he has many friends at Washington.
 Count Cellere is a man of brilliant dip lomatic achievements. In the Roman po- litical world he is often spoken of as a future minister of foreign affairs. Count Cellere's home at Rome is one of the most beautiful residences of the Eternal City. Its wonderful garden is the scene of many fetes and open-air entertainments. The familys old palace, however, is in Piazza Capramica, and is familiar to Americans as it constitutes one of the best speci- mems of the early renaissance. Count and C-,.-.ess Celere are also great favorites in Venetian society, which is one of the most exclusive in Europe. They are very wealthy, and had planned to enter eXten- sively into social activities here, following in the footsteps of the former Ambassador and Marchesa Cusani. The present situa- ton in the diplomatic corps, caused by the conflict in Europe, will modify their plans for the present. They have two children, a daughter of F and son years of age.

with varied moods to the reading of the news head lines, the first mutterings of the coming storm,' she said. Tt all seemed very far away to us for the mo- ment, and we rather looked forward to bit of international comic opera but in just a few days we realized that the whole stage of Europe was being stripped for a gripping world drama. From that time on, even the faint far-off echo of q quarry explosion or the rattle of storm artillery in the clouds was @ little too much like the avant-garde army, for our snug comfort"
 'What immediate effect on Italy could you see that it had?' I questioned
 First, the quiet groups of news-hungry men and women, all class lines effaced before the threat of a common danger, Mrs. Davis replied.
 Later the long, panting trains over loaded with human freight, struggling southwark carrying, not reservists, called to their separate standards, but men, women and children, laborers, quarry men mostly and their families, fleeing from the general menace. 1t was strange sight to who were willing to pay even fancy prices for transportation to see these through trains toss by for days, and instead of the usual refined faces framed in the first and second-class win dows, note the anxious faces of women III peasdHl costumes, IHelr IDcOmDeu tresses quite in keeping with their hag- gard looks, and, too, the staring eyes of men, shaded by worlSmen caps. still powdered from their recent occupations No happy homecoming to them, but a wild, panicky scurrying from work and plenty, back to the land that had seen poverty steal their homes before.'
 But if they were not reservisis, why did they not stay where they were?" asked
 Because the governments had issued orders to all foreigners to return to their native land as soon as possible. Besides, with the cessation of constructive work of all kinds, pay was stopped, and they were glad to accept government transpor- tation anywhere. l was told that all Americans were given a special permit to remain in Paris in the hopes that if the Germans stormed Paris the loss of life among Americans night involve the United States In the war, too. For awhile the cities seemed swamped with this sud. den influx of semi-foreign proteges, these unwilling prodigals. Florence presented queer spectacle. The main thorough fares were bare of the usual locust plague of Cook tourists. Even at midnight had never seen streets so silent. What few people remained in town during the hot summer months had gathered around the prefecture to watch a crowd of about 3o,000 of these homeless refugees, waiting to receive their daily dole from the s10O,- 0O0 the King of Italy was giving out of his own private purse. Though each city government did all in it's power to find them remunerative employment and take care of them, the King later contributed $2O0,OO0 toward their immediate relief"
 How did the war affect you directly?" l inquired.
 We quickly understood the far-reaching effects, even if war was in a distant country. The general money supply was cut so short that for once rich and
