LAMENT OF A "BONE.DRY."

Ny Country, what news! The bone-dry is
signed! No more cure for the dreaded blues, no
more Joy for the drunk inclined. It's strictly
sober we must remain, nor can we count the days,
since the last soldier was slain, and fondly look
forward to other ARRAYS.
"Ole Miss is dry, my God how sad! We
think with pain of the days gone by, when old
John Barley Corn made us glad-and now-pro
hibition makes us cry! It's a bitter truth, we
can't deny, Our dear old state has gone bone-dry!
It's a long. long path without a turn, (seems to
me | could drink a churn.)
Every fifteen days was bad e~nough-Think Of
Eternity without the stuff! The day has come
l long have dreaded, it seems prohibition cannot
be headed. long already for one good drink, and
the more l want it the more l think, of how l
neglected in time now gone-to drink-and drink
and drink!
Just take me boys, to the City Of White; There
let me mediate day and night, and when l die
bury me deep and with the last Old Soldier let
me sleep! FOUR WILTED ROSES.

A RIOT OF

The people of the United States are living in
a riot of extravaganza and affection, which in
the eyes of a New York editor, would shame near
ly anything that took place before the French
revolution. If the compilations of the gowns the
grande danes of Louis XIV's court equalled the
exhibitions which we are seeing in the fashionable
hotels this winter it would be surprising.
1t is not difficult to see the high cost of liv-
ing. One of the principal reasons is the unneces-
sary and expensive personal adornment. The
huge profits of the war have filled the pocket
books of some people with money, and they can
set a pace which few working people can keep, but
which is easily maintained by the citizens whose
millions are not counted on the fingers of the
hand.

OUR Nor.FOR.wAR POWDER BILL.

A decade ago it was decidedly out of the ques-
ton for a young lady to acknowledge that she
painted" Today there are many who without
hesitation admit that they do, although just
awhile back the habit was confined almost exclu-
sively to the demimonde. Today in some parts of
the country it is almost an essential part of an
up-to-date young woman's toilet, and in this place
we have some few lingering doubts as to the gen.
~uineness of some of the rosy cheeks We see.
We understand that the latest thing in skirts
provide latest pockets for a hiding of the "rouge
cloth" 1t is coming to be as much the thing for
a debutante to touch up her complexion as it used
to be to powder the tip of her nose. And so to
satisfy ourselves we looked into the matter, and
find that the importation Of cosmetics has nearly
doubled in the past two years. During 1916 we
imported nearly $1,000, 900 worth of perfumeries,
face powders and tints of all kinds, but in the
year preceding the amount was not near so much,
and in the one before even less. The amount
spent for domestic manufactured articles is prob
ably many, many times that sum.

Deputy Consul General and Organizer
Permanent Address Lexington, Miss.
The daily commonwealth. (Greenwood, Leflore Co., Miss.) 1916-1919, 1917-03-06

A sensible young lady Of Kansas made the fol-
lowing dying request Of her friends: DO not lay
me down by the ripping brook side, lest the
babbling lovers awake me from my dreams nor
in the beautiful cemeteries in the valley lest sight
seers cooling over epitaphs distract me, but let me
sleep under the counter of the merchant and bust
ness man who never advertises. There is peace
that passeth all understanding, and sleep, in
which neither the bouyant foot fall of youth, nor
the weary shuttle of old ago will ever intrude.
