Is TO keep Mississippians at nome. We
have done more than our share in sup

has been largely enriched by MISSISSIPPI
plans. Every one Of the Western States

other States for homes,

things. Something must be lacking at

and that the moral and social atmos-

where else in the world. This cannot
be done in a day or in a year; but It can

THE LIFE AND HEALTH OF GIRLS
BY DIR. JAMES II. MCBRIDE

The girls of the present day who are
brought up under more comfortable con.
ditions than their grandmothers have
gained much, no doubt, in the change OF
conditions; but they have lost something
in that in many homes there is less heal
thy exercise, less of that kind of work that
developed the body and also developed
simple and healthy tastes. There is as
result of this poorer physical develop
nent, less feeling of responsibility in the
home on the part OF the young ladies and
not so great sense of duty. When every
member of the family had everyday, speci-
fic duties-work to do that had to be done,
work that exercised the body as we'll as
the moral sense in discharging a duty
such life, dreary and harsh as it some-
times was and often barren of most of
those things that We regard as common
comforts, had at least the great advantage
OF providing work that furnished physi-
cal exercise, and that was also done un.
der the sense of obligation. There is a
moral and physical healthfulness in such
a life that goes to the making of strong
and simple characters and that puts pur-
ity of blood and vigor Of constitution |
into descendants.
The number Of young women who soon
after marriage break down from the un-
strain of new duties is very |
large. The mother of young woman
who had become nervous invalid with
in two years after marriage said to me
there was no apparent cause for her
daughters illness, as she had been shield
ID from everything from childhood.
Why, indeed, should anyone be shielded.
Was it ever the case anywhere that per-
ION who had been shielded grew to be a
orceful character or proved a success in
presence of the swift and onerous de-
nands of life?

THE HARDNESS OF TREES

An expert nurseryman says the hardl
ness or nonhardiness of trees depends
largely upon where the seeds from which
the trees in question sprang came from.
Satisfactory results are seldom exper-
fenced b, r.antlng seed obtained from
the sunny south, say. BY planting seeds
generally farther north, however, trees
may be at length hardened and acclimated
until seed from such tree may be rea-
sonabTy expected to thrive and mature
its fruit.
Trees, like people, acquire their habits
from the climate in which they live.
The northern tree knows instinctively
when the time has come to ripen its fruits.
The southern tree follows the same in
stinct, being in no hurry, as there is little
likelihood OF real cold. With transplant
ings farther north its habit changes.
The great trouble with most people is
that they want to iinmp tree from south
to north at one move. This same idea is
evident in the attempt to bring various
fruit trees from Russia to the northern
United States.
Apples and plums from the land Of the |
great white czar have taken kindly 70 the |

kotas. Philadelphia Record.
