POOR RICHARD JUNIORS PHI.
LOSOPhY.

President Roosevelt is not tn,
only fighting man in the presen
administration.
1t is hardly to be expected tina
anybody will work himself into
moral Mysteries at this late day
over any suggestion the Gar may
make looking to disarmament.
Big talk-small fish.
Honesty is the best politics.
Some men are so careless about
their things that they lose their
hair even.
Everything that money can buy
doesn't include anything that
makes life really worth living.
When procrastinator wants the
other fellow to do something he's
always in the deuce of a hurry.
A platonc friendship is the
greatest thing in life. Have one
woman for a friend, and make her
your wife.
It's hard to tell which is the
more hopeless case in business
office--a willing incompetent or an
unwilling competent.
When woman has weak case
she adds her sex to it and wins !;
and when she a strong case she
subtracts her sex from it and deals
with you harder than man.
Good health is the starting point
for all good times. A million
dollar salary is poor exchange
for steady nerves, and round
billion for the ability to eat a
square meal.
Small wonder that Hobson
climbed a tree-if he did-to put
back robin in its nest, or under
any other pretext. The real won
der is that he came down again;
For between the hysterical women
and the hysterical yellows, Hobson
is about the most misrepresented
man in the United States. When
we get into another war, the man
who is offered an opportunity to
prove himself a hero is going to
say, "No, | thank you," unless he
,an be sure that he will never live
TO come back from the post of
Danger.

THE RICHES OF LOUISIANA.

St Louis, Aug. 1l.-Judge T..
| Sambola Jones of Baton Rouge,
Louisiana, who is both lawyer and
newspaper man, being president
of the State editorial association, is
in the city. Judge Jones is taking
lively interest in the matter Of
Louisiana's representation at the
Worlds Fair
1.-The State of Louisiana has
made amazing progress III a very
few years." said he "EIer great
staple has been cotton, bnt to that
she adds her vast sugar and tobacco
industries. In her modern devel,
opment however she has become an
immense producer of rice. The
fortunes that have been made IN
Southwestern Louisiana in rice
culture are beyond computation.
Her salt mines, on Avery'S Island,
are snch that you could carve IA
castle ont of chemically pure rock
salt. The deposits are of immense
thickness and uneXplored bounda
RES. The sulphur deposits are
also vast enough for the worlds
uses. These deposits were worked
bv the French more than $50 years
ago and some of the old French
machines, useless long ago, are
still in existence The present
method is to melt the sulphur by
steam and run it out of the mines
where it Is directed into mOlds,
becoming hard at once on coming
into contact with the air. But
Louisiana's latest source Of wealth
is her oil territory. This is also
in the southwestern part OF the
state and the experts from Beau
mont declare that the oil territory
around jennings is richer than that
of the Beaumont field with its ia
nous Spindletop and Lucas gush-
err. A few years ago this Louisiana
land that has proved so rich could
have been bought for six bits an
acre. Now it is making millions
of dollars for it's inhabitants.
Everybody has money in that part
of the State and the prosperity is
spreading.
"Visitors to the Worlds Fair
may therefore expect to see from
Louisiana one Of the finest eXhib-
its put together by any State. Gov.
w. w. Heard has done nobly. He
recommended an appropriation of
800, ZOO and the Legislation re-
sponded with the full amout. This
enterprising act has put everybody
in good humor. DR.. w. c. Stubs
a scientist OF national reputation
is chief of the State Experiment |
station and Major j. &. Lee, state
commissioner of agriculture will
probably lead the work, as they
have already done so much for the
state at other expositions. | ex-
pect that there will be a nina
ture cotton plantation, a rice plan
tation showing the system of irri-
CATION, an exhibit of sugar cane
and all its products, exhibits of
salt, sulphur and oil, the famous
Perique tobacco and a
great forestry display. The State
is richly timbered and will make
prominent its forestry interests. !"
