DRINK TEA EVERY DAY
 AND KEEP THE DOCTOR AWAY.

If people would always follow the above proverb thy would be better oif mentally, physically, financially and socially. Of course we mean that you should drink the nice-tasting kind (the quality we sell will do.3 Now you must not think because you pay DUG or 60c to the other fellow for tea and it's not what you like, you will get the same kind at our store; thats q mistake because we pay strict atten- ton to quality when we buy. Re member we do all our own buying and we are just egotistical enough to say we know how to buy and know what quality is the best. We do not trust anyone to select our goods, we do that ourselves. And we know how 10 do it. If you doubt us, just pur- chase the kind we sell and compare It with what the other fellow sells. We will then accept your verdict. A few days ago we heard highly educated gentleman say that if you'd
 Drink tea every day,
 You'd soon pass away.
 Well. as much education as he had in his cranium. etc. he has much 10 learn. because if he knew as much about the good. clean. nice quality (that is. the kind we selD. as he does about the cheap, trashy quality he would scorn the man, woman or child who would dare to repeat his proverb.

A MARTYR TO SCIENCE.
How a Noble Young Woman Gave Up
Her Life in Cuba.

New Orleans, La, Aug. g.
Soience has its heroes no less than
war, and one Of these is Miss CIa-
ra Louise Mas, who died August,
IS 4, ia Cuba, a victim to the
thaoTy Of incubation for yellow
fes ar.
Devotion to her calling and a
dc ire to Immediately help her
ms her by offering herself, for a
pc ry hundred dollars, as sub
iets for scientific experiment,
made a martyr of Clara Mas.
Sh is the American nurse who
dirl four years ago in Las Ami
mss Hospital, Havana, Cuba, of
yesiow fever caused by the bites
of.swo infected mosquitoes.
cieAee demanded a subject;
Sc nee had already infected the
nj sqnitoes; volunteers to stand
the test Of the bites of treated
mosquitoes we're called for; $100
was the price offered. Clara
Mas, a graduated nurse, had
cared for the sick and wounded on
two battlefelds, Cuba and Manila.
Mindful Of her mothers ever
pressing necessities, for the $l00.
1..y1k Esss not 10 be ignored, Clara
did not hesitate to expose her arm
to what proved, in her case, the
deadly bite Of the infected mos
quito.
Clara Louise Mas was twenty
four years,old, born in the Orange
valley, and grew up a charming
and ambitious girl; she attended
the East Orange High School,
and at sixteen years of age began
her studies in the Orphans
Home, East Orange, in antieipa-
tion of her chosen career, that of
trained nurse. She remained in
the home one year, and then en-
tered the Newark German Hospit-
lal, from which, IN two years, she
graduated, q trained nurse.
In 1898 she was among the first
volunteers to join the Red Cross
nurses in the Spanish
war, and did excellent duty in
Jacksonville and Savannah, and
later on the battlefield at Santiago; !;
year later she enrolled in the
first division, eighth army corps,
and sailed for tar-away Manila;
there the brave American girl was
stricken with fever while in the
midst of her duties, and lay for
days lowering between life and
death. She recovered and was
sent home in April, 1900.

Mississippi Crop Conditions.

! Vicksburg, Miss, Aug. o..
Following is the general climate
and crop summary for Mississip-
pi for the week ending August q:
The mean temperature for Che
week was slightly above normal.
Frequent showers generally oc-
Cured over the central and south
ern counties, while only light
rainfall was reported from the
northern counties. Rainfall for
the week in excess of one inch
was reported as follows: Green
vile, 1.58 inches; Greenwood,
.2.26; Vicksburg, 1.62; and
Wanyesboro, 2.96.
Excepting too much rain in
some eastern and central counties,
the weather was quite favorable
for crops. Cultivation is nearing
completion, and in a good many
localities it has been necessary to
lay by some lowland fields in a
somewhat grassy condition. On
the whole, cotton continues to inn
prove slowly; plants are general
" making good growth and in q
number of Important cotton grow.
ing counties fruitage is sabisfac-
tory, but much early cotton is
large, with relatively small
amount of fruit; bolls are begin
ming to open south. Young
cotton is doing fairly welIover
the greater portion of the State,
but generally continues small and
late. Rust and shedding are Sc
rieus only in the eastern counties,
where boil worms are also doing
some damage; there has been less
complaint of injury from blight.
Old corn has about matured and
fodder pulling is in progress.
Young corn is quite promising.
Peas are making a splendid
growth. Sugar cane and sweet
potatoes are doing finely. Hay
ing continues with good yields.
Pasturage is excellent. The
planting of turnips and fall gar
dens has commenced.

CLEANING UP DAY IN N. ..
The People Went at L Wednesday
Like Fiehtlne Fire.

New Orleans, Aug. 81 The great
street cleaning campaign was In
augurated here today.
More than one hundred thous-
and people are engaged in santa
tion and mosquito work.
The campaign will be contin-
ued until nightfall. Men, women
and children are working like
beavers to get the city clean and
free it from insect pests.
Besides the paid laborers en-
ployed by the city, the prisoners
from the jalls and houses Of de-
tention, countless thousands Of
volunteers rolled up their sleeves
and went to work to give New
Orleans a thorough scrubblng.
No less than FIVE thousand carts
and wagons are employed at haul
ing off the rubbish. Men and
women of highest standing ID the
social sphere are working like day
laborers and doing everything
possible to make New Orleans
sanitarily clean.
Surgeon White, of the marine
hospital service, expresses deep
qualification over the unanimous
response that has been made to
Mayor Behrman's appeal.
Beyond any doubt, this is the
greatest volunteer sanitation
movement ever attempted in an
American city.

Jackson Evening News, 9Th.
Some people have a way of crit
icising railroad corporations and
jumping on them without rhyme
or reason; but The Leader has
noticed that in times of epidemic
like the present, or when they
can assist public officials in up
holding the law, or when some
worthy public enterprise or cause
of benevolence needs help and en-
couragement, the Railroad Com
panies never fail to do their full
part for the common good. This
lis true of Railroads generally and
notably so of the great Illinois
Central system, as it has demon
strated time and again. Let US
give honor where honor is due,
even if it is to the much-abused
Railroads.
