Likes Iowa System.

Miss Susie V. Powell has returned
from Des Moines, Iowa, where she
went last week to address the Iowa
Teachers Association, and where
she was listened to by nearly 1000
of the educators of that State. She
declares that she never attended a
better meeting and that she never
enjoyed a trip more. The Iowa
teachers are up-to-date in every re-
spect and sixty per cent of the county
superintendent in that State are
women. And such women" says
Miss Powell, "as would do your
heart good to look at. They are
strong, active, persistent specimens
of the race, and they are proving TO
the entire satisfaction of the people
Of the State that they are not only
capable of taking care of themselves,
but can look after the interest of the
children of the State just as well or
better than could the men,"
Miss Powell predicts that it will
be but few more years before the
State of Mississippi will open the
doors and let down the bars so that
women may hold more offices in
Mississippi than that of State libra

A Brand New Industry.

The advent of the Mexican cotton
boil weevil has caused at least one
new industry to spring UP in Pike
county, namely, the gathering, dry
ing, grinding and shipping leaves OF
the sassafras tree to be used as an
article Of commerce.
The product is known as "Felee;"
and seven barrels Of it, aggregating
$50 pounds, were shipped to New
Orleans last week by Mr.. F. w.
Allen, progressive farmer residing
seven miles east Of Magnolia. Mr..
Allen has a mill made specially for
grinding "felee,' and he shipped a

changeabIe Climate
is A CONSTANT THREAT TO THE
HEALTH OF THE PEOPLE.

DR.. Hartman. of Columbus, Ohio,
discusses an important health topic.
He says:
Yes. it is the climate, not the germs,
that we have to fear in this country.
The germs are present. to be sure,
and are of some significance in
diagnosis. Climate, a changeable
climate. is the true cause of disease.
The atmospheric pressure varies. the
humidity of the atmosphere changes.
Every day the temperature rises and
falls. All this presents to the body
very great trials to adjust to.
The area Of high pressure forms In
the northwest. Moves rapidly south
east. subjecting millions Of our
population to its influence. The re-
suit IL. thousands upon thousands of
people catch cold. A small per cent.
of these thousands do not get well of
their cold. 1t goes into pneumonia,
or chronic catarrh., or bronchitis. or
laryngitis. or pleurisy.
Now, what I am getting at Is this.
These climatic changes are inevitable.
No one can prevent them. The very
best we can do Is to prepare for
them. defend ourselves against them.
Good health II the best preventive.
The very best. Vigorous health. with
excess vitality. this Is Natures own
preventive and protection.

Women Lose Their Jobs.

Because Of the new labor law in
Philadelphia, many women in hotels
will be thrown out of employment,
at least 500 it is estimated, and men
and boys will take their places.
This is due to the fact that the law
does not permit woman to work
more than fifty-four hours a week !,
nor longer than ten hours a day.

French cooking famous, the demand
for it is very limited and Mr.. Allen
still has barrel on hand for sale.
The leaves are gathered in July

dried in the shade before being car
