Shirt Sleeves,
Shirt sleeves are a badge of good
sense during the heated season.
Men are divided into two classes
those who take their coats off in
hot weather and those who don't
dare to.
The man who takes his coat off
is no better than the man who
doesn't but as a rule he can be
more safely approached on a hot
day.
After a man has bubbled and
boiled inside of a hot woolen coat
for sixteen hours on a midsummer
day his disposition has generally
fermented and he will explode with
a loud report if pricked by a sharpe
word. _
Custom and convention look
down upon the man who takes off
his coat and is fired out of fashion
able restaurants with great zest by
the out raged proprietors.
| This saves the shirt sleeve man
I a great deal of money and it also
keeps the haughty but only parti
ally dressed lady dancers, from be
ing shocked and alarmed.
The easiest way to offend society
east of the Alleghany mountains is
to huck off the coat. Many a man
who has tried vainly to get tne fin
ger of social scorn pointed at him
by accumulating divorces and other
people's money, could get booted
out of Newport in a minute by at
tending a select party without his
coat. #
Society is very fond of coats and
insists upon their attendance at all
functions but it is not always so
particular about filling in said coat.
South of Mason and Dixon s iine
the coat is also treated with great
respect and the man who . tt ups
to remove his coat before going to
bed is ejected from the bosom of
his fellow men with great emphasis.
This however, is not from aest
heic reasons, but becau"e by re
moving his coat in the in the South
a man advertises the fact that he
is hot and the South is particularly
touchy upon this subject.
Man is much more beautiful in
his shirt sleeves than he is with his
coat on. provided his credit at the
laundry is good. But not much
can be said for the man who re
moves his coat and clings to his
vest.
Vests are not immodest but they
are no more ornamental than false
teeth out of place. Likewise, sus
penders and garths were both
made to blush unseen.
Nature has so designed some
men as to make suspenders a nec
essity for them. But the offenses
of nature should not be visited upon
the helpless public. The suspend
ered man should a kimona over his
shirt in the interests of art — By
George Fitch.

LOUISIANA HEALTH TRAIN
Spends Four Hours in Nuitip and is Viewd by
Many People.
Through the kindness of Dr.
Oscar Dowling, president of the
Louisiana State Board of Health
the residents of Huttig were per
mitted to inspect the Louisiana
Health Train from 12 until 4 o'clock
Monday afternoon. The train was
at Marion Sunday afternoon and 1
until 10 o’cIock Monday morning
when it was brought to Huttig by!
one of the Union Saw Mill company [
log trains where it remained until,
the south bound passenger train i
picked it up to go to Farmerville.
About 400 persons visited the
train while here and every one was
well repaid for their trouble as it
was both instructive and interesting
throughout. This train has done
more to advertise the State of
Louisiana in the past four years
than any one agency as it has made
seven interstate trips one being
into New York. The train has
covered over 20,000 miles and
been visited by hundred of thous
and people. In addition to the
sanitary displays and disease pre
venting instructions a hue display
of the States resources along agri
cultural and manufacturing lines
is carried which shows to people
out side as well as inside of the
state what a varied lot of resources i
Louisiana has.
