degree of public patronage which has
not been accorded to any other stage
work. The Land of Nod" is literally
a magnificent spectacle.
The New Phillips.
The first audience of the week at the
New Phillips this afternoon took to
the new performance with great ap-
plause. and each number was greeted
with expectancy that was not disap-
pointed. The bill easily surpasses
those of the last couple of weeks. Mar
dot and Hunter in their comedy play
let, "Gemenese on Guard" took the
house by storm and as it is not easy
for a comedy company to give an en-
core, both had to resort to stepping out
front and smiling their thanks and APP
probation. The act was funny-just
simply funny, and when hat is said
their is no need of more description.
Jack Ryne and Sue Emerson ran a
close second to the other act so far

imported by the principal countries of
the world in 1908, so millions were i'm
ported into the United States, 75h
millions entered Germany, 51A mil
lions entered France, AZ millions into
the United Kingdom, and 24h mil
lions into Netherlands, making the
United States the worlds largest i'm
porter OF cacao as well as coffee.
English Like Tea.
OF tea, the United States stands
third in the rank imported; the guam
tity of tea imported into the United
Kingdom in 1906 being, according to
the same authority, 27O million
pounds; Russia, 1876 Millions; United
States, SO millions; Australia, 20 mil
lions; and Canada, 90 million pounds.
The United Kingdom, it will be seen,
is therefore by far the largest import
er of tea-its colonies, Australia and
Canada, being also large importers in
proportion to population.
The coffee habit has evidently
grown upon the people of the United
States. Twenty years ago, in 1883, the
quantity of coffee imported was 423
million pounds, and in 1908, $50 mil
lion pounds, though the quantity has
fluctuated from year to year., having in
1902 and again in 1905 exceeded 1 bill
lion pounds. The per capita consump-
ton, which in 1868 was $50 pounds,
in 1873, ga, and in 1888. 6.S1. was in
1898, 11.68 pounds, and in 1908, 1904
pounds. In tea the per capita con
sumption has somewhat reduced
meantimt, hat Of 1878 having been
1.33 pounds per capita; 1888. IA
1908. 1.07 pounds per capita. In ca
Gao the growth in per capita consump-
ton has been even more rapid than
that of coffee, the quantity imported
having grown from % million pounds
in 1898 to SO million pounds in 1908,
having thus considerably more than
trebled in the short space of ten
years.
The United States is thus the
worlds largest consumer Of coffee
and cacao, and holds third rank among
the importing nations in the importa-
tons Of tea; her imports amount to
more than one-third of the coffee,
nearly one-fourth of the cacao, and
about one-seventh of the tea entering
the international markets of the world.
What Prices Average.
The prices at which the coffee of
the United States was imported in
1908 averaged but 7.6 cents per pound.
That from Brazil averaged 60 cents
per pound; from other South Ameri-
can States. S.S cents: from Central
America, Ill cents; from Mexico,
lis cents; from the East Indies, 1926
cents; and from Netherlands, 1873
cents per pound-these prices being
the wholesale market price in the
countries whence exported to the
United States, and therefore not in
Guiding freight. insurance, and other
added charges on arrival at the ports
in this country. The average price Of
rs cents in 1908 is slightly lower
than that of the three years ending
with 1907 and slightly higher han that
of the period from 1898 to 1904. but
much below that Of the period from
1892 to 1897, when the import price
averaged about double that of 1908.

The Stomach

The stomach of a child is the organ

sire for child exercise. generally have
stomach trouble, indigestion and dys-
pepsia.

HIS OFFER NOT APPRECIATED
Elderly Gentleman May Have Meant
Well, But the Damsel Was
Suspicious.

The plump waiter girl at the lunch
counter, having nothing to do at the
moment, was trying to reach with her
f%ingernails a place on her back well
up between the shoulders, but with
her short and chubby arms she was
unequal to the task. In vain she
squirmed and struggled, and twisted
her face. She failed to achieve the
desired connection.
The elderly man on the outside OF
the counter, who has been fighting a
piece of overdone steak, leaned Tor
ward and spoke to her in a low tone,
but with intense earnestness.

Gov. Noel's Attitude.

Gov. Noel's attitude on the subject of
constitutional prohibition, and the course
he Will probably follow at the approach
ing legislative session, was rather clear
ly indicated when he sent the following
telegram to Hon. Frank S. White, Of
Birmingham, one of the leaders of the
fight for constitutional prohibition in
Alabama:
An overwhelming majority of Missis-
sippians earnestly desire the success of
constitutional prohibition in Alabama.
All the liquor sellers and their sympa-
thizers would proclaim its defeat as
their victory. SO long as the question
rests with the legislature the whisky
lobby will constitute the nucleus for
seeking legislation through corrupt in,
fluences. The people of the State has as
great, or greater right, as those of a
county. town or a smaller unit to voice
their Judgment on the liquor traffic. Re
gardless of the result in your State, the
good people, u~ndismayed, should face
and fight liquor selling"

Father Nav Defend His Son.

The right of a father to plead the
cause of his son is the text of an Off
cial opinion issued from the attorney
generals office.
A boy named Oaks was arraigned be-
fore Mayor Bruton of Dennis on the
charge of assault and battery. The boys
father, l.. NJ. Oaks, accompanied his son
to court to answer the charge, and after
the evidence was submitted he asked
permission to review the case and make
a plea in his sons behalf, which was
granted. Afterwards Mr.. Oaks was ar
rested and arraigned on the charge of
practicing law without a license, it be-
ing alleged that he had appeared in the
capacity of attorney for his son. The
case was referred to the at%torney-gen-
eral, who holds that "the father, being
the natural guardian of the boy, is en-
titled to his services, and would have
the same rights to appear for the minor
that a person would have to appear for
himself"

Washington to look after the interests
of the State of Mississippi in the appeal
of the lumber dealers convicted in the

defendants in this antitrust suit, but
after the State courts had decided
against them quite a number accepted
the attorney generals offer to compro-
mise the nearly 10000 judgment to
$500 each, and nearly $4,000 has been
paid into the State treasury on this
