JUST WANTED TO SEE MONEY
And the Little old Lady Had Her
Confidence Restored.

She was a little old lady. so little
and so old that with considerate
friends she would never. never have
been allowed alone in the hurried
throng on the busy streets. She was
such an old little lady that she had
only just learned that there had been
trouble In the banks, and she had
made such haste as she could to be
sure that her money-all the money
The had saved-was safe.
Have you got my money!" she

EARNS For the Asking.

Louisiana has 27,000,0c0 acres of till
able land, and only 100000 acres of
it are under cultivation. The state
holds out in its hand this immense area
and offers it for homes to any who
may wish to go and live there.
Many of the other states in the Union
have immense tracts of land that could
with intelligent labor be speedily con-
verified into fruitful fields. All that is
required are the men and women In or
der to change these waste places into
farms that would yield abundant har-
vests.
If there could be some mighty CEN
trifugal force which would scatter the
excessive populations of the great
cities and people the lands that are
waiting for development this country
would receive a forward impetus nm
matched in the worlds history.-Phlla.
