Many a man who has tried to grow

the pear tree to blight. More often

HAPPENINGS
In MISSISSIPPI
tTEMS OF INTEREST FROM ALL
SECTIONS.
AN EPlTOME OF THE NEWS
CulIed From the Important Happen
4 ings Throughout the State During
the Past Week and Reviewed in
Brief.
Values Two Miles at $4,000.

According to the verdict Of jury
of eminent domain rendered at Val
ley Park, 1ssaquena county, in con-
nection with right of way condemna-
tion proceedings, delta lands are ac-
quiring fabulous valuation. The pro-
ce9dings were brought in order to en-
able the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley
Railroad to obtain right of way
through the lands Of w. w. Mangum
+ and H. B. Alden for the Valley Park,
Silver City extension. These parties
it was understood had tentatively
agreed to give the right of way at
nominal value figures, but when the
operations began they receded and
declined to meet the railway promot-
ers. 1t was then that the jury of en-
inent domain was invoked. The
award by the jury on Alden s land for
five-sixths of mile, or about ten
acres was $7,250 or 1925 an acre. The
same body awarded Mangum $2650
for sixteen acres, five Of which are
timbered-or nearly $4,000 for two
miles of right of way. The proceed
ings were held before Magistrate |.
Lucas, Of Filters, with Hon. Murray
F: Smith representing the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad and McLaurin & Armis-
ted the defendant land owners. At
present it is difficult to say what will
be the outcome, or whether the rail
way company will accept the verdict
1t will have the effect of delaying
construction of this important tap
line for some time longer than was
anticipated however.

French Colony.

Near Tomnolan, and about twenty
miles east Of Winona on the Southern
is the small French colony that is
opening the eyes Of the natives of
that section to the real possibilities
of their soil and resources. In an in
creditbly short time, they have pos
sessed and brought into cultivation a
large tract Of land and in the mean
while have operated mill industry.
They purchased their goodly acres In
the virgin form almost at a song, and
by skill and industry have raised the
value several dollars per acre. Even
were they to so abridge their labors
now, and go back to the old country,
they would take back no inconsider-
ate amount of profit on their invest
ment.

Why

why
Why, when buying book, are we in
fuenced by the authors name? Why by
an artists if we purchase a picture!
Why do wise buyers insist upon having
reliable name on nearly everything they
purchase?
1t is because the name attached is the
safeguard of the buyer protection
against the palming off of inferior articles.
This name guarantee" we all look for III
the most important things we buy, and
what can be more important than our
food?
Everybody knows that all intelligent
housekeepers are very particular about the
buying of things to eat and drink, and no.
body realizes it more than the up-to-date
toners.
For instance, every real grocer knows
the reason for the universal popularity of
LION COFFEE, the leader of all package
cotfees. He knows that its uniform purity
and high quality have made it welcome in
millions of American homes for over a
quarter of a century.
Realizing this he cannot but hand it out
cheerfuly when asked for it. He knows
that the people accept the package as a
guarantee of the contents.
Yet there may be few grocers left who
do not recognize that the buyer-not the
ssller-has the right of choice, and they
may want to sell their loose coffee (who
knows what it is, or where it came from?)
instead of LION COFFEE, which the GUS
toner asks for, and the merits Of which
both know.
In such cases the wisest advice is:
Change your dealer"

the next annual convention of the
United Daughters Of the Confederacy
for this state, and strong delegation
will be sent to the annual gathering
in San Francisco in October for the
purpose of urging Gulfport, the me-
tropolis Of the gulf coast. The gen
eral organization Of the United Daugh
ters of the Confederacy has never
held its annual session in Mississippi,
although this state is one of the
strongholds of the body, and it is
believed that the invitation to be ten
dered at the October session in San
Francisco will be accepted by an al
most unanimous vote.

ducing such extreme disturbance that
I could not control myself. But such
was my love for 1t that could not get
my own consent to give it up for some
time, and continued to suffer till my
father one day brought home pack

prepared according to directions, and
gave it fair trial. 1t proved to have
rich flavor and made healthy.

my taste the addition of cream greatly
improves 1t.

Masonic Home.

At a meeting of the Masons of Me-

masse, the matter of the location OF
the Masonic Widows and Orphans
Home was thoroughly discussed, and
the effort set in motion to have the
home erected in Meridian. The home
is to have an endowment fund OF
100000, and a very fine building is to
be constructed. The local Masons are
enthusiastic over the proposition
and feel much encouraged over the
outlook and the manner in which the
Meridian people have responded to
the endeavor to secure the location OF
the structure in this city.

Exchanee Of Books

The publishing houses which were
successful in getting contracts fol
school books for the public schools
desire an Interpretation of that sec
tion Of the law in regard to exchang-
es. The contract signed by the pub
fishers and the state limits the time Of
exchange Of old books for new ones
to twelve months from the date OF
contract, but it is said that this was
esvidently not the intent Of the law,
as it would cut off a good many child
ren from the advantages of exchange
as they advance from grade to grade
No request for an Interpretation OF
the con Sract has been made, but it is
probable that the matter will be re-
ferred to the governor and by him to
the attorney-general.

TASTE TELLS ONE LITTLE.
Unassisted by Sense of Smell, Onions
and Potatoes Are Alike.

Unassisted by Sense of Smell, Onions
and Potatoes Are Alike.
"Do you really think that you can
distinguish the tastes of potatoes and
onions?" was the unusual question
that Prof. Burtis Burr Breese asked
his psychology class at the University
of Cincinnati the other morning.
II have yet to see the individual
who could tell them apart when they
were reduced to the same consistency
and when the sense of taste only was
used"
At this point Miss Luella Latta, a
member of the class, showed some evil
dences of doubling, and the professor
asked her if she would not exhibit to
the class exactly how discriminating
her sense of taste was.
He explained that he did not have
the potatoes and onions on hand, put
that he had something far more de-
cided in it's taste and quite as familiar
to most people.
Then Miss Latta was asked to step
up to the rostrum and when she was
seated Prof Breese told her that she
must not breathe through her nose
that is, she must rely altogether on the
taste and that he was certain she
would be unable to distinguish the
three things that he then proceeded
to give her separately.
She failed, quite as the professor
predicted, and he then told the class
that Miss Latta had not been able TO
tell wintergreen from peppermint or
peppermint from cloves.
'In fact" he said, none OF you can
tell the difference simply by the sense
of taste. The taste is aided greatly
by the sense of smell. All you really
taste is sweet and sour, salt and bit
