It is a mistake, ayers the nlumihat- ing Engineer Society, to use 8 bright light against dark background, and while an artistic fixture is well enough as decoration. yet lamps which in themselves are good and suitable, will not be, satisfactory from a hygienic. standpoint unless the fixtures. arc i'm the right position. in planning the ii+- luminatiOn ot a room 1t Is only com. mon sense to determine. just what you are going to use that room for; and: then to arrange the lighting. By do-- ing this 1t should be possible for pe0s- pie of middle age to add years of ex-- cellent eyesight which otherwise would soon diminish. Where children. of various ages are in family the matter of artificial light is of great im- portance. The general health of a. growing boy or girl may be seriously affected by careless lighting, especial ly in rooms where they read or study their lessons.

The Best Courage.

No true manliness can be realized where courage Is not present-cou- rage, as denoting not merely that keen instinct of battle which displays itself in stimulating settlements, In the heat of contest, in the crisis which pushes one to self-vincication, or in passion championship of favorite opinions, but as representing what is ampler than this, and also finer: Strength of heart, strength tc endure as we'll as attack, to pu, sue and achieve as well as to attempt, to sacrifice self altogether, if need be, on behalf of any controll- ing conviction. A thorough consent of judgment, conscience, imagination, af- lection, all vitalized and active, with q certain invincible firmness of will, as the effect of such a cOnsent-this is implied in a really abounding and masterful courage.-Richard Salter Stcrr.

Got 75c a head for all their geese and were selling the tur- keys right along at BOG per lb on foot. They'd sold about $50 worth and had about $40 worth more on the wagon when 1 saw them.
 B F Donham. the chicken man, shipped 4 dozen small chickens to Memphis this week and got 40c each for them or 2Oc per lb. He says the market was off but promises better.
 MT and Mrs w P Taylor were down from Zent Thursday buy ing from Brinkley merchants.
 Felix Whitted, who has one of the prettiest farms in this sec tion, 2 miles north of Wheatley, and who has been engaged in the Mississippi bottoms, was in Brinkley Thursday with Chas. Scott, attending to business.

Shiloh Notes

We are doing nicely at pres ent but there is some sickness in our vicinity but we hope that there is no one so very ser-1 iously i'll. We are practically done gathering our crops. yet there is some little cotton in the fields and the price of picking is higher than ever saw it before. Some are paying $I.50 per hun- dred and the selling or market price is on the drag at present and yet Holly Grove is in the lead on prices around here. They all pay more than the most of us ever got before for our pro- duce. We should be thankful for same, as we are going to have to pay high for what we get in return.
 Jas H Beard. Sr. and family went to Camp Pike Saturday to see their son, Jas. H., Jr. Young Jim wrote home that they had orders to go to France at once. I do not know how soon or how many will leave but our hearts and prayers goes out with them, as we sit at home and study over the matter. We yearn to speak a word of love and encouragement to them and advise them to ever look forward to a Judgement and better day for them that love the Lord and keep his promises.
 Rev Hoy stopped at Shiloh Sunday afternoon and preached a splendid sermon but it did not surprise us for him to preach that way for he always does that. He was on his way to Helena to make a $10, 1000 col lection that night for the Y. M. c. A. war work. We feel that he is competent to do it.
 1 will give the names and amount of each one of the white subscribers to the Y. M. c. A. war work fund, as I have been requested to do by others. and l feel proud to do so, for it will let everyone see who is standing loyal in that way. and we hope that everyone will still continue to be loyal.
