Success of the Parcel Post

The popularity and easy regulation
of the new service exceeds all ex-
pectations. A great business is be-
ing conducted in all parts of the
country without congestion and yet
the bureau of engraving and printing
is hard pushed in printing the needful
number of stamps.
Let no one think there is anything
tentative in the new service. This
country is simply doing what Eng
land and the best countries in con-
tinental Europe have been doing from
time almost out of mind. No doubt
this country will be able to make
more extensive use of the system than
the older countries have ever done.
1t is boon to both city and coun-
try. At present it is not easy to say
which will derive the greater ben
eft from it. 1t will, however, do
much to lessen the dullness of coun-
try districts. It comes in to supple
ment rural free delivery, the tele-
phone and the automobile and even
the telegraph No district is now iso-
lated. All are parts of a common
country and all share in its public
benefits. The farmer is now in touch
with the outside world. If he has a
telephone he can share in the ac-
tivities of life to as great an extent
as the dwellers in crowded city. He
can cause all things to be brought to
his door and he can make his home
his place of business and market

Early Advertising

Norman Peel, the we'll known New Fork
advertising expert, now performing lit
tie missionary work for Lit & Dingwalr 5
trcky,v coming to the Bijou next Mon
day-talked interestingly on the subject
of advertising, and the exploitation of
shows in particular, to a group of friends
at the Hotel Hillman last night.
Commencing in crude, simple way.
the scheme of show advertising has de-
veloped into a colossal affair." said Ma
ior Peel. Probably the most striking il
iustration is that offered by the circuses,
who really were the pioneers in arousing
public interest in amusements.
.Charles Castle, one of the famous old
time circus agents. told me that he ad-
vertised Dan Rice's steamboat show, the
Floating Palace, from Pittsburg to New
Orleans, 45 years ago, his sole means of
publicity Indictment being chalk. He float
ed down the river in row boat, with a
darky for companion, two weeks in ad-
vance of the show. and announced its
coming with chalk, with which he wrote
on warehouses, ferryboats and whereve,
else he could find space, the announce
ment and date of the coming of the Great
Floating Palace.
This seems almost incredible when we
looks vat the artistic and alluring posters
that are now used to advertise even the
most ordinary show. The cost of mod
ern pictorial posters would have stag.

THE FARMING AUTO
. Drake. in Leslie $.

Luther Drake, in Leslie's.
The benefits derived by our farmers
from the pleasure of the automobile can
hardly be estimated. 1t is certainly equal
to the happiness given by the car to peo-
PIE in other walks of life. 1t can also be
claimed that in the purchase of the auto
mobile by our country friends there is an
economic future. 1t enables a daughter
or son of farmer living several miles
from the village to market poultry, eggs.
butter and similar products, do the buying
and return home in two or three hours.
In the olden times this would require the
loss of the services of man and a team
for the larger portion of a day.
OF course, it cannot be claimed from
this standpoint alone that its advan-
tages are commensurate with the cost
of the automobile and the upkeep An
other factor is of more value. The gen.
eral use of automobiles by the farmers
has given great impetus to the question of
good roads. The economic value of good
reads is much greater to the farmers than
to any other class of our people. To the
factors mentioned must be added the fact
| that the use of the automobile has given
great pleasure and happiness to our coun-
Try friends and tends to make them more

funds and they are entitled to their pleas

PLANT THAT COUGHS

From the Philadelphia Telegraph.
All have read of carnivorous plants.
of laughing plants and of plants that
weep, but who has heard of a plant that
coughs?
There is the authority of French boz
tanist. however, for the statement that
a plant in various tropical region actually
possesses the power to cough In the
most approved manner The fruit of this
plant resembles the common broad bean.
1t appears that the coughing plant is
something of crank. that it easily
works itself into a rage and that it has
a curious horror of all dust.
As soon as few grains of dust are
deposited on its leaves, the air cham
bers that cover their faces and are res
piratory organs of the plant become
filled with gas, swell and end by driving
out the gas with a slight explosion ana
a sound that resembles SO much the
cough of a child. suffering from cold
as to carry most uncanny sensation 10

Fighting the White Plague

No nobler national effort has arisen
than the one which has for its OBJ
ject the eradication of tuberculosis.
In the year just ended almost $19,-
100000 was expended for this pur-
pose in this country and fully two
thirds of the sum came from federal,
state, county or municipal funds. Pri-
vate subscriptions largely aided pub
lie expenditures and the total is a
great credit to the country.
A like expenditure this year will
go far toward the elimination of the
dread disease of the country. Much
has been accomplished already
and if the campaign against the
disease can be maintained a few
years longer the disease will be erad-
icated. It's source and nature are well
understood. 1t is germ disease and
the germ can be altogether elimin-
ated. The effort is huge one, but
q great humanitarian people can cope
with and conquer it. There is hope
in the effort because it extends to
all states. All are fighting the most
dangerous and destructive disease that
the country has ever known.

ENGLISH PRISON

The January Womans Home Com
panion contains vivid account of mill
liant woman suffrage as the campaign
is carried on in England. The violence
lindulged in has resulted in the impris
oning of a great many women OF the
experiences in prison that these wom-
len have undergone the article goes on
to say:
Once in prison, the advantage is on
the side of the government, since, tech
lnically, these women are criminals. and
can. by law be so treated. The life of
a common criminal in an English jail
lis not easy for a refined woman edu
Gated in modern germ theotries, to fol-
low. There is hard work, coarse mo-
lnotonous food, association with GRIM
linals, and rules that are both rigid
and humilating. She must undress in
public, surrender all her garments and
personal belongings, take down her
hair, and then, with her arms stretched
above her head, she must submit to
thorough search, wearing only prison
lchemise
Then she must get into a dingy
iron bath tub and battle where hun
dreds of criminals before her have
lbathed She inherits their prison shoes
their torn. patched garments, and their
ieorsets She must scrub her cell floor
and in certain cases, stand most un-
healthful, odors from insanitary con-
ditions Her window does not open.
and she may exercise out of doors only
three times a week; then she must
walk with the other prisoners in sin
BILE file. and without communication.
1T is not against these personal
hardships, however, that the suffray-
cites are protesting. They feel that
they declared war openly upon the gov
ernment that they are fighting in
body for political freedom. and that
they are not criminals, but prisoners
| of war.
Men rioters against the government
are deprived only of their liberty. They
use their own furniture. clothing. and
books; order theirsown food. beer, and
tobacco, and may, II practical, con-
tinue their work. The women feel
/ that 1t is betittling the cause of suf-
frage to allow themselves to be ranked
as criminals. They began their protest
against this treatment by smashing
their windows, in an effort to get
pure air. For this they were put into
solitary onfinement in punishment

This means vast loss, but it is not
irreparable as was the case in Flor
ida L or 15 years ago. Matured trees
in California are not damaged. They
were in full bloom and the crop OF
the present year will doubtless be
small.
If the matured trees in California
have escaped damage the belt Will
soon recover lost ground and be equal
to all demands upon it. The railroads
will suffer in expected shipments and
the growers will experience one or
two lean years. At this writing the
hope is expressed that no matured
tree was killed by the severe cold
wave which came down from Alaska.

The southern Commercial Congress

I find that tie business men Of Bit-
mingham are looking forward with in-
terest 10 the. fifth annual meeting Of the
southern Commercial congress TO be held
in Mobile next September" said Clarence
J. Owens Of Washington. d. G.. managing

To the scope and work of the congress
ani- southern people who keep in touch

Probably Victim of Hypnotist

Il have been much interested in the
boy Leon Hostestes, who has been pa
tient at the almshouse for many months, .
said Percy Clark.
II think there is a basis for reasonable
doubt that he is from Kentucky, which
surmise was based upon the only sentence
he has uttered. No Alabamian can look a
Kentuekian in the eye May it not be
that Leon is the victim-subject of some
INSCRIPTIONS hypnotist who found his
weakness in his state pride, causing the
boy to look steadily into his eyes and re-
peuting the phrase. 1t is not uncommon
for men who use the ypnotie-psychic-
force upon those of weaker minds to dare
them to look them steadfastly in the eye.
This poor boy probably suffering from
form of supervening paretic dementia
has no future. He will never know any
thing of life's joys; also he will not know
pain or sorrow The fact that he shows
certain physical ductlity, holding his
arms rigid when they have been so placed
by another, is corroborative of the idea
that he is the VICTIM to degree, of some
hypnotist. His case should be brought to
the attention of noted alienists for study

Nitrates and Lock Is

Congress has passed special acts
under the general dam laws author
izing private interests to build power
dams in navigable rivers in Mlssls-
sippi, Colorado, Minnesota, Kentucky,
Tennessee Georgia, South Carolina,
Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Illinois, Mon
tana, Virginia, Washington, Wiscon-
sin, Michigan, Texas and Arkansas
and these special acts numbering over
three score have been freely signed
and have become laws.
Under the dam acts which today
express the policy of Congress to-
ward rivers that Congress is not ready
to improve bill was passed last sum-
mer authorizing private interests to
build a dam at lock Is in the Coosa
river. That bill was vetoed on the
ground that the general dam acts are
not comprehensive. The veto message
was laid on the table in the Senate
and the hope in Alabama is that
President Taft, ever just and impair
tial, can be induced to withdraw it.
The case is all the more pressing
because the proposed development at
lock IS would be wholly utilized by
a lime nitrate factory to be erected
by English capitalists. A supply of
nitrogen in the heart of the cotton
belt would save to producers about
81 a ton in freight besides the ex-
port duty Of '$11.61 ton exacted by
the Chilean government. This would
mean millions to southern farmers.
Next to bread nitrogen is a necessity
in the cotton belt.
Birmingham, Florence and Mont
gomery have asked President Taft
not to discriminate against Alabama
in this case, and it is believed Gads-
den and Mobile will do likewise, and
that Governor O'Neal will be able
to lay before the President the de-
sire of the entire state.
The cotton belt needs a big lime
nitrate factory. The question is ev-
cry bit as broad as the cotton belt
itself. Once the subject is fairly
brought to President Taft's attention
justice will be done and private in
terests will be left free at lock Is
to build dam in accordance with
the instructions of the Secretary of
War and the provisions of the gen.
eral dam acts, two in number. No
privilege is desired at lock Is that
is not strictly in accord with the pol
icy of the government in over 70 pre-
yious special acts.

TWO DEAR OLD BOYS

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
The New Year observations of Joseph
c. Cannon of Illinois, who is 76 years
oil. and Shelby Moore cullom of Illinois,
who is SO, are published in the Washing
ton Herald Says Uncle Joe:'
"Soine good brother might think that
the best resolution one can make is never
to take another drink or to smoke an
other good cigar, and never to look at
pretty woman, while another man might
think, like our good German brothers,
thai a stein of beer is made TO be drunk,
a pretty girl to be loved and a good cigar
to be smoked.
MY set of resolutions for the New
Year is that | won't smoke more than
ore cigar at time, and ] won't drink
more than is good for me. As to the girls
well, at my time of life-'er | don't
suppose it is necessary for me to make
any resolutions about fair women.
II wish for all the people that they
will be happy, and we'll and courageous.
God can give them the health. They will
be happy if they live honorably and put
forth their best endeavors.
Let every man live so that he can
face the world without fear of anything
on earth or in heaven
Says 'sUncle Shelby"
I'm not going to quit anything, and
I'm too old to take on anything new.
don't do any wrong-that is, at least that
| am going to quit. About all do is
eat mince pie and plum pudding, and
| expect to keep it up.
II don't smoke. | don't drink and
dent chew, and | go to bed early
something like Lincoln
Uncle joe and Uncle Shelby" are
two dear old boys who have led tenn
perate lives, without being abstemious,
and who are young no matter what the
calendar says. If all of us could tam
per with temptation as successfully, and
live to be 76 or So without suffering any
i'll effects from our moderate indulgence,
there would be no New Year resolutions
And how much less misery and poverty
there would be in the world,
