The attendance on Circuit Court
this week has not been so heavy as
the previous weeks. In fact the
Henry Bond Murder Trial was So
much a going over the same
ground that it did not elicit the in
terest that the Manse Kelly trial did,
as the great battle was really fought
out in that trial and the State de-
monstrated its ability to put up the
necessary evidence to secure conv:c-
ton for capital punishment or q YER
diet without mercy recommendation
which under the laws of our state
means q sentence of ccution.
Still there was plenty sufficient folks
here to show that there were people
from various parts of the county in
terested IN seeing justice melted out
to the chief actor IN the awful muir
der drama of Piney Woods Greek on
that fatefnl first day OF April year of
our Lord Nineteen and Twentv-one.
The proposed extension of the
Leakesville Rural route to embrace
the fork OF the rivers territory and
thus call for division of such route
into two routes, the one the take in
the upper river country and the low
err one to be as it stands with the
fork of the rivers addition, was car
fully gone over by an inspector last
week. It's to be hoped that his re-
port will bring home the bacon so to
speek, and that shortly that much
needed Improvement for mail service
ia our county will become effective
as it's been in the waiting column
so long while badly needed.

Miss. Supreme Court as published IN

We take, things around us SO much
for granted that it is surprising to us
to discover their beginnings and diff
hcult to imagine a time when they
were not. Point lace is a phrase
which means very little to US except
and probably French. In origin point
lace, which really means needle-point
lace-that is. lace made with the
needle by stitching threads along the
outlines Of . pattern drawn or trans
ferred upon paper or parchment and
by stitches upon and between them to
form the lace-is Venetian. but was
largely developed and eventually al
most monopolized by the French.
Needle.point lace is SO called In dis
tinction from pillow lace, or the quite
different lace constructed on pillow
by the use of series Of bobbins.
When the point iase maker has
made her design she draws it in ink
with firm outline upon pieces of stin
paper, fine oilcloth. parchment or vel
lum. Each piece Is Of size easily
handled and great care is taken that
the boundary lines Of these portions
stems or ornamental shapes. so that
when Joined the points of union are
invisible. Holes pricked along the
lines of the pattern nelp the lace
maker to lay the threads accurately
and stitch them down upon the lines.
The paper is then backed by cloth,
preferably linen. to prevent the pat
tern from being torn, and to facili-
tate the detachment of the lace from
its pattern when finished by cutting
between the paper and the linen the
threads stitched through them both.
AS soon as the several portions into
which the whole design has been cut
are finished they are detached from
the paper and linen back and united
BY needle stitches. which conceal the
iunctures in old lace SO we'll that an
expert cannot find them.

WHITE FOR FALL AND WINTER

memory of man have well dressed
Frenchwomen worn white SO often
and so well.
Americans have held back a little
and where one sees Americans. Eng
lishwomen and Frenchw women gather-

France 1T is a safe bet that a pro

Frenchwomen will he dressed in pure
white. At any rate. the saying goes
about that the smart Frenchwoman
is keeping the fad for pure white
going and that the American will fol-

ling in dull black.
White Expensive.
White clothes are most satisfactory
as far as the woman of wealth is
concerned. For no matter how at
tractive they may seem. or how much
admired or how much they smack of
smartness they must forever remain
inaccessible to the woman of little
means. No one but the woman with
much money to spend on her clothes
can wear white because of the enor-
nous cost OF keeping it in condi-
tion. For. of course. white that
shows the merest suspicion Of soil

should be, in fact, the exclusive prop
erty of the woman who dresses many
times a day. has a maid to keep her
clothes in condition and can afford
to send them repeatedly to the clean
er or to discard them after a few
wearings.
For the most part the white clothes
that have been smartest in Paris are
not of the sort that can be washed
and ironed. They have been of
woolen materials. georgette. crepes
and satin.

Maltreatment of Early Tuber-
culosis. =.

e culosis.
There are 100000 persons in the
United States who have tuberculosis
and know it. There are perhaps TO-
100000 who have tuberculosis and do
not know it. In the very early stage,
called the incipient stage. it Is often
impossible for even an expert in
, diagnosis to determine positively
whether the patient has active tuber-
culosis, for the disease Is at first so
insidious, the impairment of health so
slight. and the symptoms and ply
sical signs so mild that the very best
the physicians can say is ''the condi-
tion is suspicious. Time and repeated
observations alone will settle the
diagnosis. Meanwhile, what is the pa
tient going to do? Just drift along
without any treatment until he feels
satisfied that he has the con? That
is too frequently the course he pur-
sues, and while he drifts the disease
progresses to a stage which may be
difficult or impossible to arrest.
There is no good reason why every
general hospital should not admit and
care for tuberculous patients. For
=. managers of such q hospital to ex-
sclude these patients on the ground Of
sccmmunicability of the disease Is un-
