DR0UTH In THE SOUTH

Since the state OF Georgia has en-
rolled in its law books a strict pro-
hibition law, which net only shuts off
the sale OF Intoxicating liquors at
retail, but the manufacture as we'll,
a number Of writers have brought out
interesting and Instructive facts con-
cerning the steady and rapid pro-
gress of prohibition in the South.
For some time only fifteen counties
in Georgia have been wet the
other 135 counties having voted them
selves dry under the old local option
law, which contains the county
feature. Delaware is following the
lead of Georgia, and it is assured that
at the coming election, when the
people of that state will vote on law
referred to them by their legislature.
the opponents of liquor will lead in
the count. All but four counties in
Kentucky are dry, Tennessee has
abolished the saloon everywhere but
in it's three important cities, while
Texas has ninety dry counties. TIE
Carolinas and other southern states
tell similar stories.
What q change there has been in
the southern situation in respect of
the liquor traffic in quarter of a
century. The South has been adopt
ing prohibition in order to get rid of a
prolific source of laWlessness and
crime, especially among the lower
elements of the colored population.
In some locations where crime and
disorder had become uncomfortable the
experiment Of closing the saloons gave
very prompt relief. The prchibi-
tionists are not making their fight a
race issue, but instead have organized
the more intelligent negroes to work
for votes for the dry law among
the negroes themselves.

The rainfall at Pierre this season
has so far been below the normal,
and still the report from that section
is that crops are exceedingly fine. The
cultivation of land i'm that section
has made it possible to mature crops
with less rainfall, and the trans
Missouri country is fast getting into
the crop-sure belt of South Dakota.

. Woman Tells How to Relieve
Rheumatic Pains.

] have been a very great sufferer from
the dreadful disease, rheumatism, for a
number of years. I have tried many
medicines but never got much relief
from any of them until two years ago,
when | bought a bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. | found relief before I had
used all of one bottle, but kept on apply
ing it and soon felt like a different
woman. Through my advice many of
my friends have tried it and can tell you
how wonderfully it has worked.-Mrs.
Sarah A Cole, 140 S. New ST., Dover,

affords is alone worth many times it's
cos 1t makes rest and sleep possible.

TOWN BOOMING HINTS.

One of the surest ways to stunt the
growth Of your town is to sit around
on other peoples dry goods boxes and
knock the community.
No town ever grows beyond a certain
limit unless somebody strikes gold
there. locates a big factory or does
something else to call attention to the
place. AS a rule, nobody on the outside
is going to do either of these things. 1t
is up to the residents.
Now and then we see a certain town
bounding forward like a Looping jack
rabbit on an Oklahoma prairie. But
the town is not going forward just for
fun, any more than, the jack rabbit. In
each case somebody has put a persuad-
er in action, and invariably it is some
body who has an interest in seeing
things move.

1t Was Too Much.

Brigadier General Andrew S. Burt of
the United States army is an enthusi-
astic sportsman, says the Detroit Free
Press. His hobby is baseball. Prior to
1898, when he became IL brigadier, he
was the commanding officer of a negro
regiment Of regular infantry. Each
company had it's ball team, and the
the games.
One day a contest was on which was
married by the poor playing Of a mem
Der of n of the company teams.
Burt. disguised. volunteered to take
the place Of the incompetent. No one
objected. At the bat the colonel was
given a base on balls. He noted that
the men OF the coaching lines kept
silent while he was on the bases, and
after he had made the circuit he re-
monstrated.
See here" he exclaimed, slipping
out of his coat, GIVE taken off my
shoulder straps now. and you fellows
want to treat me just as if | was Il
private!"
Again Burt was at the bat. He hit
the ball and started for first.
Run, you gimpy legged, sawed OFT
mud turtle. Run, run. run, run" howl
ed one of the coachers.
Burt reached first safely, turned and
regarded the coacher for an instant,
then left the base, walked over to
where his discarded blouse lay and put
1t on. He said nothing, but the negroes
understood. 1t was too much.

Where She Lost Interest.

as they descended from the machine
and started up the dark walk toward
the house where they were to call.
ut does?" be inquired politely.
Yes; 1t gives it the same effect as
though IL had been struggling to
avoid being kissed" she gurgled.
Indeed? | fancy you should carry
a small hand mirror and some hair
pins when you go automobiling," he
suggested, moving right on up the dark
walk.
Some way or other, by II of those
unexplainable psychological impulses,
at that very moment she began to real

One Demand.

A modest house will do,
With Just a place to eat and sleep
And room enough for two.
1t may be small and even mean,
A tiny two by four
l only ask a place without
A photograph next door.
1 do not a the simple life.
Far from the madding crowd,
Nor would I kick IL those near by
Should try to think out loud.
I only ask the gentleman
Whose house against mine backs
To take his noisy monograph
And break 1t with an ak.
Yes; 1 have had experience.
Quite bitter, 1 admit.
A fellow once lived next to me
Who owned a singing kit.
There was no music In his soul,
And that explained the crime
That he committed night and day
OF playing all the time.
I like to hear a photograph
If It's so far away
That. straining all the ears 1 have,
L cannot hear 1T play.
Yes. distance lends enchantment here,
But am good and sore
If some n drags the music in
And sets 1t up next door.

Yes. l know the sun Is shining.
And I know the skies are blue.
And 1 know the silver lining
or the cloud Is breaking through,
But l gaze on them in sorrow,
For the signs of spring behoove
Darling wife upon the morrow
To declare she wants 10 move.
I have heard the robin singing,
And the book beer sign I've seen;
I have seen the ocu springing,
And the lawn Is showing green,
But my wife Is now uneasy,
And 1t only goes to prove.
When the days are cool and breezy
She's made up her mind to move.

S%prineing the Spring.
The lightning drops adown the sky.
The thunderbolt makes stern reply,
The ain pours down In sheets, and then
We realize it's spring again.
Then rustles wife round about;
She turns the household inside out
And scrubs and paints with vigor when
1t dawns on her It's spring again.
The lawn loud clamors for the rake,
The clamor makes ones back to ache,
And every our of work seems ten
When gentle spring Is here again.
BY all the signs in field and wood
We see Dame Nature making good,
And stupid man has got to work
When spring invites him out to shirk.

bank that sacrificed Itself on the al

It was liberal institution. powerful,

thousands of banks which had been
depositing with it began to withdraw
their funds and kept up the process
Of sneaking them cut. Hundreds Of
individuals who had been helped and
sustained and stayed by the bank
were IN the rush which finally
swamped it. The officers and diree-
tors did everything possible to stem
the tide. The jealousy and dislike
of other banks in that and neighbor
ing cities came into play and aided
in the catastrophe. The other local
banks carefully distentangled them
selves from danger Of the suction

Those Kansas City bankers had
the wrong idea. a bank is not a
promoter Of the public welfare. It IS
a place where a number Of selfish
and coldblooded individuals put their
money for security. The bank must

care Of it. and its sole view should
be to it's prompt return. with interest
