HUNDREDS NARROWED
ON ROOFS AND TREES

vICKSBURG. Miss. April l3.-Urrent
appeals for aid for flood sufferers have
been received here. From Roosevelt, La.
came q telephone call asking that q boat
be sent to rescue a score of persons ma
rooned in q store there. It was the last
place Of refuge that remained above the
foods surface.
Telephone messages from different parts
of Madison parish. La, confirmed reports
that the entire parish is flooded. Hun
dreds Of persons are marooned on house
tops and in trees, where they took refuge
when the flood descended. Many per-
sons are floating through the parish on
RATS.
Heavy Loss in Livestock.
Reports Of loss Of life have not been
verified by Associated Press corre-
spondents.
Several rescuing parties have left
here for the flooded districts. Inn
mense damage has been wrought by
the water. The loss in livestock alone
probably will exceed that of the Sec
ton In northeastern Arkansas flood
ed by the breaks north OF Memphis. A
herd of hne Hereford cattle owned by
Lee Shields, postmaster at Roosevelt,
WAS swept away bodily. Scores Of fsne
livestock owned by e. J. Davis. q well
known planter. were drowned.

A MESSAGE
To Feeble Old People.

AS one grows old the waste of the
system becomes more rapid than re-
pair, the organs act more slowly and
less effectually than in youth, the cir
culation is poor, the blood thin and
digestion weak.
Vinol, our delicious cod liver and
iron tonic without oil. is the ideal
strengthened and body-builder for old
folks, for it contains the very ele-
ments needed to rebuild wasting It's
sues and replace weakness with
strength. Vinol also fortifies the sys-
TEN against colds and thus prevents
pneumonia.
A grandneiee of Alexander Hamil-
ton. over eighty years of age, once
remarked: "vlnol is a godsend to old
people. Thanks to Vinol, | have a
hearty appetite, sleep soundly, feel
active and we'll. 1t is the finest tonic
and strength-creator l have ever
used"
II Vinol fails to build up the
feeble old people, and create
strength. we will return your money.

BANK NOTES IN USE
IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES

The form taken by money in each
country is a curiously accurate inidea-
ton of the character and tastes Of the
inhabitants thereof writes James Da-
venport Whelpley in the October Cen
fury, discussing 1.-THE Trade Of
France The stately English bank
note of splendid workmanship and un-
compromising severity the German
note with it's rude proportions and
florid style of finish; the American GER
tifeate of most convenient size, per-
feet workmanship, crispness of design,
and with the CLINT of the metal it
stands for; the clovenlv Italian paper
money, dirty, carelessly cut, and to be
carefully inspected before it is accept
ed as genuine; and then the beads and
shells of the savage.
There is no better illustration of this
reflective character than the money of
Rance. Carefully adjusted in size to
fit the wallet carried by every careful
Frenehman-and all Frenchmen are
careful of monev-ine of texture, ar
tistic in design, and light and deli
cate in coloring, it possesses a fine
ness beside which the money of other
nations looks cold and brutal. In the
same way the french snow ~hnehess ana
subtlety in their manner of living,
their loves and hates their crimes,
their politics, their fighting and even
in their trade and manufacturing.
They have no real competitors in this.
If it could be said that the money
also reveals it's strength as well as
the delicacy of the Damascus blade,
and this were true, all would he well
with that nation which holds the CEN
ter of the map of Europe. But here the
