The tendency in the industrial Or
CARNATIONS where many men are en-
ployed is to weed out men who are
addicted to the use Of Intoxicating
liquors. Active men in good health
need no stimulants. Young men who
say that they need the strength and
comfort of stimulating drinks put
themselves in the same class with old
men and inyalids who are advised by
their physicians to assist their failing
nerves and shrinking blood-vessels by
recourse to the aid and comfort given
by stimulants, remarks the Christian
Register.

Secretary Wilson, speaking about the
agricultural outlook for the United
States for the new year, said: "Agri-
cultural improvement in the United
States may be confidently anticipated,
for the American farmer is coming
more and more under the influence of
scientific methods. During the past
year the Department Of Agriculture
has reached further into sympathy
with the industries Of the people. II
has identified itself more intimately
with the experiment stations Of the
several States and Territories, and
what pertains to the interest Of the
people. 1t has gone further into for.
eign lands to find many things that
will be valuable to our producers"

The New York Independent observes
that life insurance has proved one OF
the worlds most powerful agencies in
decreasing poverty and distributing the
community's wealth in the hands
which most need it. The billions OF
dolla-s which American life insurance
corporations have contracted to pay in
the future are simply so much guaran-
teeing against crushing poverty, bur-
den alike to the individual and to the
community.

LITTLE GIRL KIDNAPPED.-Lula
Virginia Joyner, beautiful little girl,
five years old, is believed to have been
Kidnapped from the home of her mother,
Mrs. Ida Joyner, widow. near Church
Road. Dinwiddie county. The chic
was last seen about II O'Clock Monday
morning in the yard. Thirty minutes
later Lula was missed. The neighbors
formed searching party and with
lanterns and torches searched high and
low through the surrounding forests ana
swamps for many miles. Hurricane
Branch took his bloodhound "Tiger," but
notwithstanding that the dog was given
scent from the girls garments, he could
not take the trail from the yard. This
strengthens the kidnapping theory. For
fear that Tiger might harm the child,
he was worked with a long rope
Hurricane Branch says he believes, IRON
a clew, that the girl was taken to Rich
mond. The child has long, fair hail
that curls, dark blue eyes, and nos'
inclined to fatness. Her mother Is
nearly frenzied by suspense.
