OLD WORLD FEARS
America Is Stripping Countries
of Art Treasures.
May Form League to Prevent
Masterpiece Exports.

Paris. April 1.-THE first steps have
been taken toward the formation of an
international European defense league
to prevent the expectation of artistic
and medieval master pieces to Amer
lea.
For years past the acquisitive pro-
pensities of wealthy and enlightened
Americans like ]. Pierpont Morgan
and Otto Kahn have caused grave anx-
iety in Europe. No limit could be set
to their collecting plans without some
action by the European governments
to stop the increasing power of the
great millionaires from stripping the
old world of its cherished art treas
ures. A committee has been formed
which will virtually include, IL
it does not actually include already,
officials like Won Bode, of the Royal
Museum of Berlin, DIR. Erner of the
Imperial Museum at Vienna, the pres1-
dent of the Imperial Museum society
of st. Petersburg and She authorities
in charge of the Paris Arts and Trades
conservatory, the South Kensington
Museum and the new Municipal Mus
cum of Munich.
This committee hopes to form a
league which will induce the various
governments to adopt methods similar
to those enforced in Italy. A plan or
action is now being formulated.

Most old people must give to the

tive as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets-
One might as we'll refuse to aid weak

portant at all ages. but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the bow
els INFO activity. But a lash can't be
used every day. What the bowels Of
the cid need is a gentle and natural
tonic. One that can be constantly
used without harm The only such
tonic is Cascarets and they cost only

he is confident that great results will

The more extensive planting of vel

allies that in addition to proving one
of the best stockfoods to be found,
nothing is so good for bringing up the
fertility of these Southeast Mississippi
lands as crop of velvet beans.
Mr.. Wilson stated that Mr. Carpen-
ter, the newly employed demonstra-
ton agent for this county, will re-
ceive every possible aid and encourage
ment from the United States Depart

the government when 1t invests in the

is in him. The only way this can be
done in the employment Of field dem

While in the city yesterday, r. 5.
Wilson, state agent for the United
States Department of Agriculture
talked freely of the agricultural pos
sibilities of Southeast Mississippi.
One thing he stated was that the light
lands of this section are more respon-
sive to culture than any lands he
knows of; that 200 pounds of fertil-
izer on an acre in this section will
yield much reader results than the
same amount of fertilizer will on lands
in his section, where the soil is much
heavier.

BEST S. He EVER spent
Bristol, Pa, Man Says SO In This
Letter.

Months of suffering and anxiety
over his condition caused Mr.. A. l..
Kennedy, of Bristol Pa, to write this
letter. He says: Grippe and bad
cough caused me much suffering and
worry for five long months, but that
is all over now for have taken Vinol
and am perfectly well. took five
bottles and it was the best FIVE dol
lars ever spent"
In health one cannot realize how
depressed a person may become after
trying one remedy after another for
such a condition as Mr.. Kennedy was
in, without benefit, or what relief it
is to find help and be restored to
health and strength.
It is the combined action of the
Gods livers without the greasy oil, aid
cd by the blood-making and strength
creating properties of tonic iron, that
makes vinol so efficient in overcom-
ing chronic coughs, colds and bron.
chitis at the same time building up
the weakened rundown system.
We guarantee vinol to give you per

THE SEPARATION.

Didn't have no quarrel-no, sir.
Mary just packed up and went.
l was willing she should go, sir.
No, We'll neither one repent
Yes, We talked it over often
Cried sometimes, I'm free to say.
Each the others load would soften
But there weren't no other way
Just a case Of plain mismating-
Not a thing in common, sir,
What I'd almost give my life for
Didn't mean a thing to her,
And the things she'd long for, wait
ing
Things she'd set her heart on, seer
Things she'd bear the stress and STRIFE
Were just foam and chaff to me.
We could bear it while we're well, sir
Young and well and strong and bold
But we'd seen it would be hell, sir,
When we should be sick and old
That's the way we thought about It
Way we say twas working out
And we's right-you cannot doubt It
'Tain't no crime to preach about,
Separating may be bad, sir,
Courts and churches think 1t so;
But, for her and me, I'm glad, sir
Very glad, because I know
I'd have been a prison keeper
If I'd tried to make her stay,
Both in torment, deep and deeper.
No, there warn't no other way.
