FOUND HIS BRIDE IN TOMB
Romance In Life Of a Famous vens-
tisn composer--sIster Substituted
Herself In cofin.

Benedetto Marcello, one Of the most
famous Venetian composers. fell in
love with a beautiful girl named Leo
nora Manfritto, who married Paolo
Seranzo, a Venetian noble. She died
In short time after her marriage. a
victim of the harsh and Jealous treat
ment of her husband.
Her body was laid out in state in
one OF the churches, and her lover &C
tually succeeded in stealing the corpse
and conveying II to ruined crypt In
one of the islands, and here he sat
day and night by his lost love, singing
and playing to her. as though by the
force of his art he could recall her
to life, says the London Telegraph.
Leonora had twin sister, Eliade.
who was so like her that her closest
friends could scarcely distinguish
them. One day Eliade heard a singer
In a gondola singing so exquisitely
that she traced the gondola to the de-
serted island, and then she learned
later the fate of her sisters corpse
and the identity of Marcello. Aided
by servant, Eliade substituted her
self for his sisters body, and when
Marcello returned and called Leonora
to awake he did not ask In vain, for
apparently she rose alive from her
coffin. Marcello, when he found out
the delusion. was quite satisfied and
married Eliade, but his happiness was
short lived, as he died a few years
afterward.

Farmers Resent Plying By The Poll
: ticiaRS.

Perry Co. News.
In this country there are no other
people that the. politicians love 30
well on election years, and for whose
welfare they are as solicitous, as the
farmers. And it is not because of
the business the farming people OPP
crate, but it is simply because the
farmers make up majority of the
voters, and the politicians are sim
ply trying to get on the good side of
the biggest crowd. But to hear
some of them talk it would seem that
the business of farming wa. a low
and despised one, and that the
speakers heart was just full of sym
patty for the poor, unfortunate fell
low who has to do such work. But
farming people know as well as
everybody else that il is all foolish
ness. and they are getting tired of
it. In fact, 1t has been whispered
that there has been little too much
of the dear farmer business about
some of the speeches made bv our
county candidates in their recent
picnic speeches. The voters are
looking for well qualified. honest
men to attend to the public business
for them, and every candidate
should Thoroughly inform himself up
on matters pertaining to the office ia
which he aspires so that he can get
up and freely and frankly discuss
them before the people whenever the
occasion offers.

EDITORIAL

The editor hadn been back at his
desk long after the return from the
California trip before he saw it would
be necessary to exercise the usual
caution in clipping matter from those
of our exchanges given to use OF
canned editorials (of which number
there are but few we are happy to

ing up the latest series of that kind
of hash which travels under the Sc
cret name of National News Service

a paragraph or so lifted this week,

Imagine the din of a thousand

Imagine the din of q thousand
voices in your ear and you have
some conception of that which as
sails the editor after being gone
three weeks and combing over that
long an accumulation of exchanges.
There are about 300 newspapers
published in Mississippi, and while
we do not get them all, and don't
try to read the back numbers Of all
the dailies, what we con over in fav-
orite dailles and outside OF the state
papers makes about the number al
luded to, and its like mighty cla-
NOR in ones ear from a babel of
voices telling the occurrences OF
thousands of towns and hamlets and
over a period of three weeks. In nc
other way could we keep track oil
current history IN the making in our
section whilst off on the vaca ton,
and we merely do this to show the
conditions under which we labor
this week to write up the paper and
post up at the same time.

Mississippi Will Raise Her Own Germ.

Tavlorsville Signal.
For the first time in it's history, SO
far as available records show, the
State of Mississippi will in this good
wear grow all the corn needed to feed
it's own people and stock THIS is
the estimate of the situation by men
who have studied it, and not at sag
range but from close study ia the
field, and from psdiabe and eonserva-
tive reports. According to H. Z.
Blakeslee, commissioner of Agricul-
ture, there is no doubt Of the fact
that this will be Mlssissippi's banner
corn and stock year, as 1t is rea-
sonabe suppositlon that the corn
crop is safe. Hitherto, the nearest
that the state has come to meeting
the corn consumption demand by it.
production has been about 10000,
900 bushels IN a demand account OF
some 80, 600, 600. This year, as de-
clared bv Mr.. Bakeslee the indica-
tions point strongly and straight to
the gratifying prospect that the
crop this year will meet the demand.

Outranking all other Offices in i'm

of legislator and supervisor, aud vo-
tiers should bear that fact ia mind
when they make up their ticket on

State and the Board of Supervisors
is the directing agency of the coun-

Its better to withhold some re-
serve of influence rather than for
one to exert every ounce of it that
they can muster in political cam
paign. To exhaust ones self to the
oint of emptiness is bad policy
most any time. The Herald editor
has kept himself within more than
usual bounds in the present cam
paign and we expect to go out of it
on liveable terms with our neigh
bors and former friends. In fact we
have not ielt the interest that usu-
ally assails IN state campaign, and
in the home affairs our disposition
has been not to get so far stirred as
to lose sight of the fact that practi-
caIly all of the candidates are our
friends and that there is but one pa
per published in the county and that
II would be unfair to use its prestige
in favor of any particular man to

housework into small quarters. Also, the arrangement of the sink and kitchen cabinet helps very much in saving labor.
 There is more work and expense in the dining room in this house than in any other room. It is finished with built-in cabinet work from the hard wood floor to the crown molding at the ceiling. The extension window is carefully well built by boxing it in with sheathing boards and covering the sheathing with building paper. so as to cover all the cracks and joints. The same style Of finish is carried through the parlor and den.
 The particular pattern is usually se- lected by the owner of the building. Fashion dictates that inside woodwork shall be plain, no beading whatever, and very few curves. Many expensive rooms are finished with plain, straight bands of wood instead of holdings. The baseboard, window and door cas- ceiling may be light or heavy, but in either case they are all plain usually with square corners.
 There is double sliding door be- tween the dining room and parlor, which may be opened as occas sion re- quires to make the two rooms into one. A great deal Of the time this door will be left open, which is a benefit in the circulation of air for ventilation. Houses of this type are so closely built that some means of
