Marking the Waist Line.

Of this season: there is some marking
out of the waist line. either by belt
pr the cut Of the side seams, or a cord

Baked Apples and Raisins.

Wash as many apples as desired and
pstick with cloves. Place over each
about one teaspoonful of sugar and
six or seven raisins for each apple pre-
pared. and then about half a cupfuI of
water. Replenish the water if it should

to let the steam escape and prevent

Using Shepherds Plaids.

Jeanne Lanvin, who dresses the young
of Europe, started the use Of small
shepherds checks in red and cream, In
brown and yellow for the suits that
young America wore during January
and February-those jaunty little jack
cts that were pinched in at the shout
ders and waist, and had armholes that
ran upward toward the neck in order
10 narrow the line. The skirts were
full below these jackets and the whole
effect was distinctly youthful.
Such distinguished use of colored
checks gave an impetus to their popu-
larity. and, as a result, we have the
black and white shepherds check IN
every kind of costume.
The coats that Doucet makes are en-
tireIy different from these rakish af-
fairs but they strike more novel
line than most of the others. which
are usually fashioned after the same
dominant idea Doucet takes soft
and can, therefore. swing more grace
into the jacket. The sketch shows his
latest success, which is being made in
q ma jority of the New York shops.
II has a broad back. showing no IN
..,iEation to be pinched in at the shoul-
ders and drops easily to the peplum
placed u trife below the waist line. and
il joined there by thick cord and
an outstanding ruffie. The feature Of
the coat, as II is explained by the e.-
perts. lies in the huge patch pockets
that are placed at the back. offering a
tempting lure to the pickpocket. Let
Us hope that the women who wear the
suit prefer to consider these pockets
as ornaments and not for service.

Beautiful Hair Is Every

Who does not love a head of
pretty hair? Some women think 1t
is Il gift of nature and envy their

brittle or full of dandruff, do not
think it must always be that way:
for pretty hair is only q matter ol
care and proper nourishment OF
the hair roots. Hair is something
like a plant-if neglected it soon
withers and dies. while little at
tention keeps it fresh and beauti-
full.
Partisan Sage is scientific prep
aration that supplies just the ele-
ments needed to inviSorate the
hair roots and stimulate the hair
to grow long. thick. fluffy. soft
and Iustrous. 1t removes dandrun

and scalp treatment for Ihen.

Corn Continues to Advance Selling ut

Corn is already selling for 81. 25
a bushel cash, and will go to
81. so before the summer is over.
1t is unfortunate that many of
ourfarmers failed to make enough
corn last year to run their places
till the crop has been made. And
they are being required to buy
this corn with seven cent cotton.
Last year was not good corn
year still those who planted on
good land had enough to meet
requirements with an average
crop year, have plenty without
having to depend on oats, which
is almost like a crop of mamma,
only requiring to be gathered.

settlers Bill Goes Over.

Congressman j. B. Aswell has
sent out the following circular
letter for the information of his
constituents and relating to his
bill for the relief of settlers on
certain railroad lands in Grant
and other parishes:
Washington, March 5. 1915.
My Dear Sir and Friend:-Our
land bill for the relief of settlers
passed the land Office, the house
public lands committee, the house
of representatives, the senate
committee on public lands, and
reached the calendar of the sem
ate without having a vote record
ed against it.
When 1t came up in the senate
all the opposition disappeared ex-
cept Senator Root. representing
Underwood of Chicago, who has
large timber claims in our State,
and Senator Pomerence. repre-
senting Black & Lane of Ohio,
who also claim timber lands in
our State. The friends of oul
bill in the senate did all they
could, but owing to the Republi-
can filibuster that has ragged for
for weeks, cur bill failed to pass
the senate. We fought faithful
ly for the bill until the last hour
of the session yesterday at noon.
On the first day of the next
session of congress | shall intro
duce the land bill again in the
house and Senator Ransdell will
introduce it in the senate. With
the friends the bill now has here
confidently believe we. will pass
it.
! In the meantime, there is 9th
ing that can be done here to give
llons-delayed justice to the set
tiers whose cause is just. vii
continue the fight until this mat
ter is settled and settled right.
Faithfully yours,
j. B. ASwELL.

In a Fair Way to Have a Fair.

The people of ward seven are
talking about a ward fair to be
held this fall at Hargis. The
success of their ward fair on such
short notice last fall has given
impetus to a much stronger SEN
timent in favor Of a fair for this
year, and already the rivally is
on to produce better stock and
farm products. We congratulate
our friends on their progressive
spirit, and confidently expect to
see q fair well worthy of the
name.
Anent the lively disposition
shown by the people of ward
seven to hold a ward fair, we
are informed that they hope to
get charge of the Grant Parish
Fair, and move its domicle to
Hargis or Verda, in case the Pol
lock people propose to let the
parish fair go by default, as
seems at present to be the case.

poned mention of the Pollock
Holy Roller" incident that APP
peared in some of the State pa
pers, because our neighbor the
Town Talk came. to hand with
the statement that it had investi-
gated the report and there was
nothing to it. Town Talk, how
ever, was misinformed about the
matter, as the Holy Rollers
were there all right. and their
tabernacle was, dynamited, but
it was dynamited at a time when
there was nobody in the building.
Gilman Hemphill, the apostle of
the Holy Rollers, /" was knocked
down in an alteration. and his
father is said to have been given
a sprouting for taking his sons
part. The matter we understand
will be presented to the grand
jury, and somebody be called to
the bar of justice for mob vic.
lence.

A Magnificent School Building.

On a hurried trip to Verda last
Monday a Chronicle representa-
tive had the pleasure of inspect
ing the magnificent new brick
school building, Mr.. R. E. Bar
ron, of the local school board.
acting in the capacity of guide.
The inspection was made too
hurriedly to go into details, and
extended description is left for
another time. The building is
completed, except for some minor
finishing touches, and will COM
pare favorably with any school
building in the larger towns and
cities. The lighting arrange
ment is one of the features of
the building, and can hardly be
improved on. Another noticeable
feature is that the arrangement
of the class rooms and corridors
of the building permit the use of
every available foot of space, no
hooks and crannies taking up
space unnecessarily. The build
ing is a lasting monument to the
progressive spirit of the people
Of the Verda school district, who
have willingly taxed themselves
in order to provide their children
with a magnificent building and
comfortable quarters in which to
secure an education.

elected the fact that Mr.. L. Dow
Wardlow was responsible for the
work, finding time from his duties
as cashier of the Bank of Mont

lives in. His wife told us he put
them out to make a shade fol
him to walk in from their con.
templated new home to the bank
