Mothers are sometimes SO thought less as to neglect the colds which their children contract. The inhama- ton of the mucus membrane. at first acute. becomes chronic and the child has chronic catarrh, a disease that is seldom cured and that may prove a lfes burden Many persons who have this loathsome disease will re- momber having had frequent colds at the time 1t was contracted.

PREDICT WEATHER
 WEEK IN ADVANCE
FORECASTS FOR FARMERS
WEATHER BUREAU INAUGU. RATES SPECIAL SERVICE
 FOR CROP SEASON.

A new weekly weather forecast de- signed especially to aid farmers in planning their farm operations and shippers of perishable products to handle their goods with reference to expected weather conditions, was in- |augurated by the United States weather bureau yesterday, and will be continued during the crop season. In order to have these weekly fore casts reach the farmers and shippers
 in small towns with the least possible delay, the bureau also has arranged a system whereby the forecast will be taken Tuesday and reach the weekly newspapers, especially in the corn, wheat and cotton districts, by mail on Wednesday morning-which will be in time for the greatest number of them to use the information in their editions. In this way 1t is believed that the forecast for the week con- mencing Wednesday morning will be in the hands of most of the farmers and shippers in the small towns, through the medium of the weekly newspapers, Wednesday night, Thurs day or Friday-thus giving them the benefit of from 6 to days of ad- vance forecast.
 The Log Cabin Democrat will print these forecasts in it's weekly edition, giving the prediction to it's readers every Thursday morning. The fore east for the week beginning Wednes- day follows:
 West of the gulf generally fair, except that widely scattered showers are probable in Arkansas and Louis- jana early in the week. Tempera- lures near or slightly above normal.

Commission Form at jackson.

That Jackson will be operating un.
der commission form of government
by June /, 1916 now seems certain
ty. Every obstacle has been removed,
and all forces are showing willing
ness to work together toward the one
common end--that of drafting a char.
ter that will be suitable to the people.
Mayor c. E. Griffin is busy selecting
his committee of three to act Jointly
with the committee of three from the
Commission Government club, who
will select the seventh man, who will
also be chairman.
Jackson voted for commission gov
eminent two years ago, the advocates
of that form winning in an election by
majority of only 3S, but the bill
authorizing the change in the form
of government was killed in the legis-
lature. The fight was renewed again
last June, and aldermen were elected
who were pledged to commission gov
eminent and also to step down and
out June 1, 1915, or whenever the com
mission charter took effect
AS soon as the charter is drafted
and there is no objection on the part
of the people to it's provisions, Senator
elect H. C. Anderson and Representa-
tives-elect j. A. Blackmon and R. S.
MeClaran will put it through the leg
islature, and Jackson will then begin
operating under the new form June l,

QUESTIONED BY THE JUDGE
Defendant In Japanese Court Has Not
to Submit to Cross-Examina-
ton by Counsel.

The defendant lin Japanese court)
was testifying in his own behalf. He
stood directly in front of the presid-
ing Judge, not ten feet distant from
him, and answered his questions in
clear voice, without any apparent
hesitation. The judge seemed con-
versant with the case, for he put
questions rapidly, giving funny lit
tie grunt of acquiescence after every
answer. Occasionally one of the asso-
ciates wrote suggestion and handed
1t to the president, and once or twice
the defendants counsel asked the
court to put certain inquiry. The
whole proceeding the same may
be said of those in several other courts
/ visited-was conducted in a quiet
colloquial way In every instance l
was impressed with the simple bust
nesslike atmosphere.
Some of the Japanese lawyers with
whom l have talked say that they feel
that very often the court does not
elicit all the facts, and that our sys-
tenn of having witnesses questioned by
counsel would be better; but, on the
other hand, some lawyers maintain
that better results are realized by the
system, which puts upon the court
the duty of getting at the truth, main
tanning that the witnesses are more
apt to talk frankly to the court than
to the lawyer for the opposite side
who is engaged, as they think, in try
ing to make them out liars.
came away quite favorably i'm
pressed with what l saw, and wonder
ing whether, on the whole, in 95 per
cent of the cases, decision by three
judges, trained in the investigation
of facts, would not be as nearly right
as the verdict of twelve citizens casu-
ally gathered in from the general COM
munity.-George w. Wickersham In
