definition of citizen which makes

ish reason was needed to justify the
cause. For there is no individual
right which can conflict with the best

mean all the men and women and

They saw the tendency toward so

dependence for all women, for the care
OF the children by the state, and in
the replacing of the family as the
unit of the state, with the individual
as the unit.
1t is through the establishment of
the family that we have reached our
present stage of civilization and it is
through it's maintenance that lies our
hope of future progress-rsu4 progress

ANCIENT FARM PLAN

gives a mortgage to a bank and re-
ceives in return an open account for a
certain amount Of credit Thus a
farmer who considers that he needs
a credit Of $4,000 to operate his farm
gives mortgage for that amount to
the bank. AS he needs the money
he draws on the bank. He pays In
terest only on the amount on which he
borrows.
For the longtime loans of the farm
ers the savings banks are allowed to
invest up to 80 per cent. Of their de-
posits in farm mortgages. These mort
cages are of two classes-for periods
up to ten years and for periods Of
from 10 to 80 years.
The shorter-term mortgage loans are
repaid by the borrowers in one lump
sum, as In the United States, but
the longer-term loans are repaid by
amortization-that Is, small annual
payments made upon the principal Of
the loan. The banks are only per-
mitted to charge borrowers one-half
per cent. more than they are required
to pay depositors. At the present
time the prevalent rate is five per
cent, though generally 1t is four per
cent. Money is only loaned up to 80
per cent, Of the appraised value OF
the land.
There is also a mortgage bank in
Florence, the Monte dl Paschi, found
ed by one of the early dukes Of Flor
ence. This bank issues mortgage de
bentures at three and one-half, foui
and one-half and five per cent Most
of the debentures now outstanding
are at five per cent. They sell
trifle under par, which is the usua
condition in Italy, and their marke
: price compares favorably with gov
ernment bonds.
The cooperative societies for pur
chase among the land owners hav'
been successful. The farmers them
: selves do not belong to these socie
\ tiles, but the landowners do all puE
, chasing Of farm machinery and ferti
her. These societies are also activ
I in educational work. and maintain az

FOUND A WAY
To Be Clear Of Coffee Troubles.

Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit, and finally his stomach

was due to coffee and after some dis-
cussion he decided to give 1t up.
1T was a struggle, because Of the
powerful habit. One day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try 1t

coffee.

Lines Of Regulation Russian Blouse
Not Followed When the
Material Is Laced.

The lines of the regulation Russian
blouse are not followed out when the
material is laced, no matter whether
It is heavy or thin. The excessive
looseness and drag Of the material Is
emphasized in lace even more than In
cloth because all the garments above
the waist are continually made in this
fashion, although there is an effort to
bring back the round, tight bodice Of
Victorian days.
The neck should be cut high at the
back and low in front, If it is possible
for woman to stand this kind OF ex-
posure in the afternoon hours. It can
be as low as she wishes as far as fash
ion Is concerned, for 1t seems to put
no limit on the daytime decolletage

HOW coca COLA REFREsAEa.

The remarkable success which has

explained In many different ways. Some

others to the fact that 1t was the iirst IL

ing both mind and body without pro
ducing any subsequent depression.
He points out the fact that the chemical
composition Of Coca-Cola Is practically
identical with that of coffee and tea
with sugar added) the only material
difference being the absence OF tannic
acid from Coca-Cola. He points to the
laboratory experiments Of DR.. Holling-
worth Of Columbia University and Of
DR.. H. G. Wood, Jr. Of Philadelphia
which prove concluAively that the caf-
feine-containfhg beverages (coffee, tea
Coca-Cola, etc } relieve mental and mus.
cular fatigue by rendering the nerves
and muscles more responsive to the
will. thus diminishing the resistance
produced by fatigue. These expert
ments also demonstrate the fact that
the caffeine group of beverages differ
from the stimulants in that the use Of
the latter is followed by period Of de-
preston which calls for more stimula-
ton, thus resulting in the formation Of

Of its investigation Of cooperative

Agricultural cooperation Is prac-

about Florence-societies for the pur-
chase of agricultural machinery, fer
tilizer, seeds, etc. This is chiefly due
to the fact that in the early days the

on share basis by the peasants.

To N. O. For Another Test

Jackson, Miss, May 5.-Gov. Brew
ed Sunday night received a telegram
from the district attorney at Opelous-

P. Dunbar would at once take the
child, claimed as their son, and who
was found in the custody of W. c..
Walters at Columbia, recently, to New
Orleans, there to meet Mr.. and Mrs.
Bilbo, of Poplarville, who, it is claim
ed. for some time took care of a child
that was taken to their home last July
By Walters.
Postmaster Scarborough, of Poplar
vile, also will go to New Orleans with
the Bilbos. He has stated that he
knew the child that was taken to
Poplarville by Walters several weeks
before the Dunbar child was lost.
Gov. Brewer is awaiting with inter

is believed the result will have a great
deal to do with an early decision on
his part whether to honor at this time
the requisition of Governor Hall, oi
Louisiana, for Walters, who remains
closely guarded in jail at Columbia
