Dead.

We regret to chronicle the
death of Mrs. c.. II. Turner who
died very suddenly last Tuesday
morning at her home near Hlck-
orv Grove east of here, She
was far advanced in life and had
not been in good health for
several years and her sudden de-
parture was not a surprise to
those who were familiar with
her state of health, but a great
shock as death always is TO the
family and friends. She was a
most excellent lady and Will be
missed in her home and the
community where she was very
much beloved. She leaves an
aged husband. Mr.. G. K. Turner
and three sons Of her immediate
family. Messrs. G. r., Il. Z.
and Jake Turner to mourn her
loss, the former a resident OF
New Orleans. Numerous friends
svmpathize with the bereft men,
bers of the family in this their
hour of sadness and gloom.

ALI America-The National
Anthem.

From the New Orleans States
the National song to be sung ir
all the schools. Revised by
M. V. ZIMMERMAN.
My country, 'tis of thee.
Sweet land Of liberty,
Of.thee [ sing;
Land where my fathers died;
Land of the Pilgrims pride;
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring.
My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name | love;
[ love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and tempted hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
[ love thy inland seas.
Thy sweet magnolia trees.
Thy palms and pines;
Thy canyons wild and deep,
Thy prairies' boundless sweep,
Thy rocky mountains steep,
Thy matchless mines.
[ love thy silvery strands,
The Golden Gate that stands
Afront the West;
Thy sweet and crystal air,
Thy sunshine everywhere;
0 land bevond compare,
[ love thee best.
Then music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedoms song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break
The sound proloEg.
Our fathers God, to Thee.
Author Of liberty.
To Thee we sing.
Long may our land be bright
With freedoms holy light;
Protect US by Thy might,
Great God, our King.

Patrons and Pupils Of the Pub
lie Schools of Oktibbeha County,
permit me to say that most of
the schools of the towns and
many Of the rural schools in 9th
er counties are equipping their
school house with nice little
library, that is leading the pu-
pills to enjoy the beauties of lit
erature and to profit by the wis
dom Of many authors. | take it
that you, my rural boys and girls,
are just as much entitled to prof
it by these good books and that
you are just as competent to en-
Joy their benuties as are the boys
and girls of these more progress
I've schools. Then let's put q IL
brary in your school.
If you will raise SO and fur
nish secure book case-which
can be made out of q goods box
by the larger boys in the school
with a lock and key, | can give
you $40 more from the school
fund. This $50 will get you sew
eral good books, to which we
can add each year until you have
a library that will not only be a
credit to your school, but will
become Power for good in the
neighborhood.
I desire to congratulate the
patrons. and pupils of the Double
Springs School upon their being
the first in the county to avail
themselves of this new law, and
upon their having a teacher who
not only knows how to teach the
pupils, but also knows how to
lead and help her patrons.
Would that all Of the teachers
could learn her secret. Double
Springs, you have started to re,
gain your folmer prestige.
Don't stop. My only regret now
is that you will not get enough
children together to enable ne
to put two teachers IN youl
school. Some day you will dc
that too. May you reap much
and lasting good from this limo
vation, and may other schools
speedily follow yonr good exam
pie.

Mississippi Iron Ores.

A few years ago traces of iron
werereported as having been dis
covered in Neshoba county and in
some quarters it was urged that
the situation be thoroughly in
vestigated. Tests Of iron ores
in Clarke county were once made.
if we remember correctly, but
for some reason nothing has
been heard lately of these. The
Aberdeen Examiner some weeks
ago said that it had information
from good authority that the lta-
wanda Developing Company had
located very rich vein of iron,
and suggested that "if the geo
logical survey people would
give three or four months OF
their time in exploring ltawam-
ba and TishomingO counties the
results would Justify those to
whose persstant demands the
survey owes It's existence"
The Examiner is undoubtedly
one of the most practical and re
liable newspapers of the state,
meyer visionary, never indulgin2
in the exploiting Of possessions
that exist only in the magma
ton. and even in this instance II
does not assert that a thorough
survey would prove the actua
existence of the rich veins above
referred to. No one wishes more
than the Dispatch that the claims
may yet come to be true.-Merl'

ously upon the work thus out
lined.
AS the needs Of the organiza-
ton develop, other Committees
will be formed, since it is the
purpose of the Pres. to get re.
suits by putting everybody to
work. This statement is per
haps a sufficient explanation of
OF the fact that the names of
persons who have not yet form
ally joined ihe Association ap-
pear upon these COMMITTEES.

Double Lives.

- we CuanceQ to tall INTO a seat
Just III front of two we'll dressed
lads, who were engaged in con
Versa5lon. We hao no intention
OF eavesdropping, but were so
situated that we could not help
hearing what they said. The
revelation that come out in the
course of the conversation was
starting. Stories Of escapades
mterlarded with disgusting pro-
family and vulgrrity-that was
what we listened to for something
like Ealf an hour. The unpleas-
ant experience set Us to thinking.
These boys had evidently been
brous ht up in homes not devoid
of refinement. How much, we
wondered, did the home folks
know about that ugly side OF
their lives they were revealng 10
us? How long had it been since
their doting mothers had told
their pastors what pure. sweet,
innocenu boys James and Robert
we're? And how grateful they
were that their sons had never
fallen into any evil habits!
How sad it is that SO many OF
our lads begin thus early to lead
double lives and to practice the
base art of deception! There IS
no quicker road TO ruin than
that. It destroys the openness
and sincerity Of a boys nature,
and turns him into a liar, a sneak
and hypocrite. 1t breaks the
vital oond Of union with the good
which is an essential condition OF
healthfal development, ana
compels the youth to find his m
innate companions and counse-
lors among the vicious.
The final outcome Of the effort
70 lead a double life Of this kind
is vividly portrayed by Steven
son in his "Strange Case of DR..
.Jekyll and Mr.. HYDE" a story
which every lad who is tempted
to try the experiment of leading
snch a life should read. The ex-
nerim ent may be practiced with
apparent success for awhile
The youth may for q time deceive
his parents and maintain an out
ward air of decency and respect
ability while living a life OF Sc
cret sin. But all the while the
better elements of his nature are
gradually perishine., and IN the
very same proportion and oy the
same process the b"ser elements
,ro raining the ascendency.
And IS this change goes on con-
ooalment becomes increasingly
aif,cult. until by and by it be-
comes impossible. Sooner or Ia
tor the guilty secret will reveal
itself. and the guilty soul will oe
lovn for what it is. For a
time DR.. Jekyll in the story was
ahle. under the hideous guise OF
Mr.. Hyde. to indulge his evll
nropensitives when he would
aftery ards returning to the com
aonionship Of his respectable
friends, before whom he mas
a,eraded as a decent and upright
citizen. But there came an aw.
~, dav at last, when he realized
that the deception was no longer
oss;ble. that DR.. Jekyn was
poaa and only Mr.. Hyde, the
or;minal, the demon in human
- .m survived, and that he must
zoo all the horrible eonssquen-
of his evil life. The wages
I'm is death, and sin loses none

of it's being concealed.

FLUE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCO LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
FIue Curing Develops The Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is fue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this flue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind oftobacco yoW are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit Of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers formerly bought costing from 75c,
to $I,oo per pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in SC. cuts, strictly

There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and hue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called fue cured. In fue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
fues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process developes in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy fue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
