Water at Meals.

Water taken with meals should be slipped as we'll as taken sparingly. Ice water should be taken as seldom as possible: never, would be a better rule. And the habit of putting clipped ice in the drinking water is to be avoided. as one never knows what may be taken into the stomach through this medium. The better way is to fill bottles with water and allow them to stand beside ice to chill

the day. That is, to breakfast or not to breakfast, according as it is flesh production or flesh reduction that is required.
 It is not advisable to ignore the morning meal entirely in either case, but the stout woman who wishes to regain the syiph-like proportions of her girlhood days must dcsist from anything more substantial than bis cult and a glass of hot water, fruit if desired. Also. she must pay strict attention to the entire diet. and for that there is no hard and fast rule. She must find out for herself or from her family physician the things from which to abstain.
 The way of the stout woman who would be thin Is more difficult. far, than that of the too thin woman who sishs for rounded cheeks and dimpled chin. It fir irony of fate that to the former the good things of life mean much. She is fond of luxury, and luxuries for her "dIfuse their pleas ures only to destroy" She is fond of ease, and ease is her undoing. and of high Iiving-Eocd eating-'her over powering knell.-
 But for the thin girl there Is more hope. To be sure. she must change her ways also. She. too. frequently has q fondness for the wrong foods. She do;es on sour pickles and soda crackers and tea and tosst. and never eats any breakfast at all That is where she makes a mistake Break fast should be the heartiest meal of the day for one who wishes to add fssh.

The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1906-02-10

ests and there is not i'm all this vast
country a more popular mar than
Captain Merry.
A friend laughingly told him yes
terday that IL he would just consent
to come to Mississippi to live that the
boys would make him governor in
three or four years, but the Captain is
no politician and said that he thought
that would be about the worst thing
that could befall him. Captain Mer-
ry is the father Of the Vicksburg
National Park idea and it was on his
suggestion that it vas established.
He has located hundreds Of people in
this and other Southern states, who
are now pulling together to develop
the country. Captain Merry is essen
TALLY an upbuilder. He is a broad
optimiSt who lives in the sunshine, q
genial, social gentlemen, whose friend
ship is as true as the needle to the pole.
The News feels like Mississippi is
to be warmly congratulated on Capt.
Merry's promotion, for it means that
he will continue the great missionary
work for the state, a work which is
bearing such magnificent fruit. The
Illinois Central road is one of the best
and most liberal roads I'm the United
States. 1t works along broad lines
and ever recognizes that il the road is
to prosper the country through which
the road runs must also prosper. In
pursuance of this policy it is at all
times working to get new industries
in the different towns along the line
of its road and to bring new people to
its territory, and in this work Capt.
Merry has been the personifica-
tion OF the policy of the road. His
work has been highly intelligent and
greatly beneficial. He was among the
first to see the good points OF MiSSiS-
sippi and the South in general and
since then he has never failed to make
these good points known. The work
that he has done for Mississippi alone
could not have been accomplished by
a private individual or a state associa-
tiOn without great cost and then
would not have been as effective as
that done by Captain Merry with the
great Illinois Central at his back.
The many Jackson friends of Captain
Merry were glad to see and greet him
here yesterday and to express the hope
that a benign Providence may spare
him many more years OF usefulness.

At a meeting of the Society of the
South which is to be held i'm Cedar
Rapids, Iowa. on February %, Captain
J. +. Merry is to be the principal
speaker. The Cedar Rapids Republi-
can makes the following mention of
the convocatiOn:
Captain J. f. Merry, general immi-
grafton agent of the Illinois Central
railroad company, will be the speaker
at the annual banquet of the Society
of the South, which is to be held in
this city on the evening of Feb. %.
His subject will be THE Citizens of
the South" and for convenience he
will divide it into three periods. Be-
fore, During, and Since the civil war.
Captain Merry is a pleasing, interest
ing and instructive speaker, one of
the kind whose speeches always seem
short because they are SO full of good
material. The banquet promises to
be one Of the most enjoyable that the
society has eve held and it is expect
ed that the attendance will be larger
than it las ever been before. All
those born south of the Mason and
DixOn'S line are eligible to member
ship in the society.
AS an indication OF how the people
Of the South feel toward Captain
Merry the following appreciation from
the Jackson (Miss.) Evening News is
republiShed here:
There was in the city yesterday
and last night a party OF real estate
men and homeSeekerS, in charge Of
Capt. j. +. Merry. the general i'm.
migration agent of the Illinois Cen
trail railroad. Capt. Merry is always
a welcome visitor to Jackson. He
came to this city many, many years
ago, when it was nothing but a Strug-
CLING village. lie told the business
men of the city that the a OF prog
ress was passing them by and they
must wake up. They did wake up
and Capt. Merry, while not a citizen
of Jackson, has been no small factor
in its growth. The devotion of Capt..
Merry to the interests Of Mississippi
amounts almost TO ldOlatry.
He has done as much to develop the
resources of this state as any n man.
Merry believes in the state and
its growth, and while he has worked
for all the states through which the
Illinois Central runs, it has seemed to
the people of Mississippi that he took
q deeper interest in the welfare of
this state.
The News believes that the Illinois
has done n OF the best
things possible for itself and the states
through which the road runs, when it
made Captain Merry general immigra-
lion commissioner. Captain Merry L
IS cut out for this work, and there
;ould not have been a more happy
1t is a position that under
Capt. Merry will be n Of direct re-
,urns for the road. There is pr0ba-
not in this country a more inde-
'atagable worker than this gentle
nan. He seems to grow fat on work.

lois Central railroad for over twenty /;

wealth OF the state had increased 81
per cent during the six years ending
October 1, 1905, while the states ex-
penditures had increased 90 per cent.
This is but indicative of bad business
management indeed. But, as Mr..
HightOwer suggests, a still worse con-
dition confronts the people of the
state IL the legislature pursues the
same policy that it has in the past
that Is, grant practically, every de.
mand made upon it for money. then,

much be taken out of the pockets of
the people who pay the taxes or else
the state treasury will be worse than
empty.

1t is estimated that the bill, which
passed the state senate to exempt
from taxation all money on hand or
on deposit, will relieve the assessment
rolls OF about $50, 600, 900 annually,
and deprive the state of something
owe r$l00, 900 in revenue.
OF course there Is a great deal more
than $50, 900, 900 on hand or on depos-
it in the state, and if the proposed
law will force it from it's hiding and
into activity, it will serve q good pur-
pose and the public interests will be
promoted by the law.
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1906-02-10

There has been a bill introduced in
the legislature to create and organize
an Industrial Reform School in the
state. The purpose Of the proposed
school is to provide a place whereby
the moral training of youthful crimi-
mails, from the age of eight to sixteen
years, may be looked after. The bill
provides for the giving Of a primary
education and for a farm to contain
16O acres of land. The bill, or some
ether similar one covering the same
purpose, should pass. The school
would perhaps be the means of setting
many a boy on the road to a better
life. Certainly it would appeal to
that which is best in him and tend to
dwarf and strangle his criminal pro-
pensitieS. Aside from the moral side
to the question, we believe that the
school could be self-sustaining and
therefore not an annual burden upon
the tax payers Of the state.

STATE NORMAL TRAINING SCHOOL,

The esteemed Aberdeen Weekly
takes issuewith us as regards the estab-
liShment of q State Normal Training
School and secs a great necessity"
Cor such an institution. We do not
believe that our educational inter
eStS are to be rated entirely by the
dollars and cents diSburSed, o has
this been, and is not now, the policy
of the state but we do believe that
there must be some regard to the
debt-paying power Of the people. One
must sometimes even deny himself
necessities because of other demands
upon his purse. We would not be
understood as in anywiSe Directing to
the maintenance and strengthening of
the public schools. We are in favor of
the most liberal appropriations for
them. They reach the great masses
Of the people. In many instances
those children who would never even
learn to read and write otherwise.
But when it comes to the State Nor
nal. if it is decidid that conditions
demand, it We think that it should be
Il in conjunction. with n of the
Institutions to which the state is al
ready dealing out funds with a lavish
hand. There is already a chair of
Pedagogy at the University, and a
special course designed to equip teach
ers at the |. /. & @. If it is neceSSa-
~ to enlarge these. departments, some
Of the public funds which are being
spent in other ways about these places,
could, with propriety, be diverted to
the Normal OF Pedagogical depart
ment. In fact, the state is setting a
pace with these institutions that it
cannot maintain and il the public at
large were posted as to expenditures,
there would be q wall from q end of
the state to the other, from Dan to
Beersheba, about what it costs Mis-
SiSSippi per student that would Startle
those who are now resting in the lap
Of ease. We have not the figures be-
fore us, but a prominent gentleman
who is in a position to know, told us
not long since, that it cost the state
about 1876 apiece for every student at
the University. Besides this, board
and a matriculation fee must be paid
by the student. We merely mention
these facts to show how blind the
state has been as to how its money is
used. We agree that these schools
should be maintained on a dignitied
and progressive basis, but in doing SO
other conditions and. necessities must
not be forgotten.
To establish a separate institution
for a State Normal would require a
outlay of money. IL not now, in
the nearby future, and we repeat that
We see no necessity for such a step.
The teachers can be we'll provided
