The heavy rains during the last
two weeks of May caused incalcuable
damage of farming interests in
Mississippi. 1t is estimated that the
crops were damaged from five to
thirty per cent and it is safe to as
sumo that the acreage was reduced
on account of it being too late to re-
plant cotton. The rains were a
hard blow to farmers all over the
state.

the part of missionaries in the pursuit
of their difficult role, that fill me with
admiration. After hearing of the ar
lTbgance and excuses committed by
the Japanese immigrants upon white
foreigners, as well as upon Koreans,
I asked muscular big missionary,
who looks as if he could administer
the law, as well as the gospel, how he
managed to get along For the sake
of my work, 1 just give in. When
Japanese coolie bumps into me on the
street and tries to knock me down,
simply say, Excuse me- and step
aside. A gentleman and his wife came
to my house few weeks ago in jim
rickishas from the station. The fee
should have been 20 sen each. He Of
fered %. The Japanese 'rickshaw
men, knowing that he was foreigner,
asked dollar apiece. When, at my
advice, he refused to give it, those two
coolies came into my parlor, took out
their pipes and began to smoke. There
they stayed until | paid them a dollar

Over at Hattiesburg recently we
saw performance by a pickaniny of
not over twelve summers, that should
arouse some investigations as to ma
lures gift IN way of musical talent to
the Negro race by such researchful
and indefatible chronological students
as Ex-Governor Vardaman ct al. This
little coon had but little If any eau
casian blood flowing in his veins, for
his head was thoroughly wooley 1--WE
saw him with hat Off his eperdermis
showed very nearly the smut color,
while his rolling eyes, low fiat elon-
gated nose and thick lips proclaimed
his close African ancestry. What
he did was to crawl up to piano and
as easily as an accomplished adult
musician, made the instrument thrill
and throb with the Unknown pop
ular rag time airs. Ofcourse he
didn know a note or use any book,
but he sure did knock fire and furious
music out of that white keyboard.
If he mad been sightless like Blind
Tom, the negro prodigy who died a
short while ago, we would not have
wondered, but his full possession OF
faculties did not call for an extraor-
binary talent from nature to offset
some such affection. We have seen
niger Lddlers who played very well;
some niggers who were members of
either string or brass band. who had
a very good turn at their instru-
ments, but these were of age and
most of them acquired it by much
training. This black boy never got
his any other way but from birth.
Is he merely a mimic, or has he real
talent like found in other races of
mankind, that are capable of original
ity and natural versatility? Let the
scholars answer, but see the little
coon play first.

The irdividualism which formerly
prevailed has we'll nigh disappeared
from our political and social life; lii
it's place we now have coilectivism.
Just as the old order had both it's
weak and strong points, so will the
same be found is the new. Perhaps
the worst feature of the old individ =
ualism was it's tendency to selfish
ness; the individual thought main :
w of himself and not of his Obiiga-

about collectivism is it's trend to-
wards the realization of brotherhood,
and yet that may easily become its
weak point if 1t checks the incentive
to individual effort.

COMMON SALT VS.. SALT IN
FOODS.
.I LIN. IL 0s ALLEN
Food Specialist.

Common salt should be used
sparinely. The elements of salt,
chlorine and sodium, are highly
Important in the economy of d.
qestion and cell nutrition, but
the crude, mineral salt serves
only as an irritant, causing an
excessive flow of saliva, which
of course heightens the capac-
ity for tasting whatever is in the
mouth with it; but such a means
of stimulating taste is both un-
natural and unnecessary. Prop
erly selected natural food with
a natural appetite are the best
conditions for the normal enjoy
ment of food. But common salt
must be eliminated through tbs
kidneys whose delicate organism
it irritates as indicated by the
abnormal thirst following the
eating of much salt.
OF course failure to drink
enough water might be worse
than eating much salt under GER
tain circumstances. But wheat,
nuts, lettuce, cabbage (uncooked
always, milk, figs, contain am
pie chlorine to form gastric fluid
and ample sodium and in natural
form.

VALUE OF CHEESE.

Cheese contains all tie Gle
ments of nutrition, but, like all
other animal food products, it
Is liable to be contaminated by
disease-producing germs. Fresh
cream cheese, properly pre-
pared, is a safe and nutritious
food, though it contains nothing
that can not be obtained from
nuts and good bread. The vege-
tartan can get from cheese the
aIbumen and other essential eIe-
ments of nutrition, which the
meat-eater gets from flesh.
Cheese combines we'll with
bread, but not with fruits. Toast
ed cheese Is indigestibIe. Maca-
roni and cheese form a nutri-
tious heterogeneous food of which
one may, however, easily over
eat, but the same elements of
nutrition are supplied by nuts
and bread, and nothing is gained
by constantly varying the diet,
If one is satisfied to live on a
simple ration and enjoy the in
creased mental, spiritual and
physical benefits that accrue.

ON EATING EGGS.

Eggs contain all the elements
of nutrition, though not in the
right proportion for human food.
The aIbumen easily putrifies, es-
peciaIIy where the motor ac-
tivity of the stomach is weak or
when there is slight fever. In
such case eggs are in high de-
gree poisonous, causing the Sc
Verest results of auto-intoxica-
ton. II is better to obtain the
necessary supply of proteid from
bread or nuts, or even cottage
cheese. The best way to cook
eggs is by slight poaching only,
never hard boiling, but they are
best eaten whipped. Any con-
VaIescent who has a good appe-
title may take we'll toasted white
bread with a whipped egg, the
aIbumen supplying the deficien-
cy of proteid in the toast which
takes up the albumen, and II
properly masticated forms a
light and nutritious meal.

Never put your arm through the

given by an exchange to the young.
Most of them ought to know what it
means without further explanation.
A woman is never so foolish as when
she hopes to reform "a man after
marriage. He loves me, " she
trustingly says, and because her own
love is pure she expects the pure
article in return Poor girl you do not
know the witchery of the jag, nor
the strong bands which bind the soul
of the man to whom your happiness
is entrusted. True enough, be is
good hearted and kind except when
in liquor, but as his slavery increases
his kindness decreases, While seek
ing for some one to shield him in his
helplessness, he may indeed fiatter
you that you only can redeem him.
After you become his slave you may
we'll wish for an early grave. Many
an error it hides, many heartache it
cures. But the lack of love soon
follows protracted indulgence in
folly. Young ladies, never put your
arm through the handle of d jag.
