Regular Habits Produce
a Beautiful Complexion
Daily elimination rids the system of poisons.
Women should realize that!

n TANY women complain daily Of
lV their complexion. Of their head
aches and general i'll health little
realizing that the trouble is constipation.
Women, too, are much more subject to
such congestion than men, and much more
careless Of It, The result is seen in lustcr-
less, weary eyes, in sallow. pimply COM
plexion. in lassitude, bad breath, and in
that word so often used, "indispOsed."
At the FIRST sign Of these symptoms The
wise woman will take a laxative. and
will see that the young girl and Others in
her care do likewise. Dr.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin is the ~favorite with thou
sands Of women because it is mild and
gentle in its action and in the end trains
the stomach and bowel muscles to do
their work naturally without the aid Of
medicine.
, This combination Of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin can be bought at any
drug store for Soc and ST a bottle, the
latter foI families, for it is also a very
sterling 6rst-aid in colds, fevers and other
xMdden ills that make it advisable 10

ATTENTION FARMERS!

The excessive rains throughout the
parish during the cotton picking season
damaged the seed to such an extent
that our farmers should see that an am
pie supply Of good seed is provided for
planting next spring. Home grown
seed that have been carefully selected
and have given satisfaction are prefer
able, but where it becomes necessary
to buy outside of the State, the earlier
the better because they will likely cost
less and when they are placed in dry
place on the farm we knew we will
not have to wait for them when ready
to plant.
Cowpeas are scare and if you expect
to buy now is the time. Statistics
show 2,OOO,2l2 pounds on hand June
80, 1919 as compared with 1928, ,521
pounds in 1873; and the yield has been
cut short. Oklahoma is the only state
where a normal yield is reported in
l9l9,. while Louisiana reports only
sixty per cent Of normal crop and
this is better than reported in other
sections.
Don't make mistake by having
peas or velvet beans to put in every
hill of corn planted in 1920. Without
q good stand we can not make full
crop and without coed seed we can not
have good stand.

rived, and although every one
here knew that his machine was
probably stuck in the mud some
wherein the woods. most of the
crowd waited patiently until he
arrived.
Mr.. Aswell was at home among
people who love and respect him,
and was at his best.
His speech was a notable one;
a mastery review of the political
situation in this state, and a thrill
ing appeal to all Democrats to re-
main true to the party to which
the South owes so much in the past
and upon which her safety depends
in the future. He stressed the
point that the Republicans in the
North are watching tile contest
here with peculiar interest and hop
ing for. the success of Mr.. Parker,
which will he regarded as the first
break in the democratic line Of. the
Solid South.
1t was plain that he made a per-
found impression upon those who
heard HIM. We regret our inabili
ty to discuss some of the strong
points he made. but as it is neces-
sary to get this paper on the press
a dayahead of its usual time so that
the printers can enjoy Christmas,
we are instructed to make this ac-
count short.

Parker Statement Branded as
False
NEW ORLEANS STATES

w. H. Heard, former goervnor, and
registrar of voters in Orleans parish,
branded the statement from Parker
headquarters that '1195 names had

1.-THE statement, on its face, is alb
surd, replied Governor Heard. "The
fact is that not single name as yet
has been erased from the list, as the
Parker committee report. The public
must understand that the registrar is
guided by TIE law and can not erase
any name from the list before the pub
lication of such name and allowing five

TO GET ROCK BOTTOM
FACTS ON FARM COSTS

The reorganization Of what has
been called the Missouri farm man
agement association into an associa-
ton for one definite purpose is plan
ned for Farmers Week at the Univer-
sity of Missouri, January 1928, 1920.
That definite purpose is: To secure in
each county in the State, where there
is going farmers organization, the
appointment by that organization of
farm cost and price" committee.
The purpose of this committee will be
to cooperate with such agencies as it
sees fit in securing for its organiza-
ton accurate information as to local
farm costs and price conditions, to
pass on the advisability Of giving sup
port to and of cooperating with any
agencies attempting to secure farm
cost information within its territory,
and to report to is organization its own
approval or disapproval of any such
work.
AS the public is influenced in its at
titude toward farming by the reports
it receives of farm conditions, it is to
the interest of farmers to control to
some extent the publicly given their
business. In his stand for fair price
for his products, the farmer in an or
ganized way, is going to have to con.
vince the public as to his costs and
profits. The representatives Of farm,
ers' organizations to be most effec.
tive, will need be armed with definitf
information regarding the farming
section for which they speak.
