hands. And what is most important
the farmers who receive this money?
must pledge themselves to spend it
for some improvement to their land
or for the purchase, of some imple-
ment or article that will increase
their production, increase their in
come, increase the riches Of the EN-
pire. necessarily the machine goes
round, receiving money from every
where and turning it over to the
farmers and every cent that takes
this route means more wheat, more
food, more wealth for the German
people.
An instance of this is the German
system of land mortgage associations
and the French adaptation of the
same idea. In Germany, shortly after
the Seven Years War, King Freder-
lex the Great compelled his barons
to pledge their great estates as Sc
curity for loans which he proposed to
use to develop the agricultural re-
sources of Prussia which had suffered
severely from the wars. Such high
handed methods were certainly a
curious beginning for system which
has developed into mutual aid asso-
citation. This compulsory pooling of
their land by the mobiles finally led to
the formation of the Landschaften
associations, organizations in which
the members voluntarily pledged their
land as Joint security for debts to be
incurred by the society. These socie-
ties issued mortgage bonds which
were listed on the great financial ex-
changes and dealt in as commonly
| as are the best railroad bonds in the
United States today. These bonds
We're based upon mortgages given to
the Landschaften by any member de-
string to borrow. The purchaser of
the bond could depend upon the
strength Of the entire Landschaften
for security for his bond. The bond
holder had nothing to do with the
borrowing farmer. The society be-
came responsible for the farmer and
II he defaulted only the society suf-
fered. OF course, that made the bond
a great deal better investment than
a farm mortgage, and the investor
was willing to buy it at much lower
rate of interest than he would have
extended to the individual farmer on

FADED GRAY HAIa---USE sage TEA

listen, avoid preparations put up by
druggists as they usually use too
much sulphur, which makes the hair
sticky. Get "Hyeth's" which can al
ways be depended upon to darken
beautifully and is the best thing
known to remove dandruff, stop sea D
itching and falling hair.
BY using Wyet's Sage and Sulphur
no one can possibly tell that you
darkened your hair 1t does it SO
naturally and evenily-you moisten
a sponge or soft brush, drawing this
through the hair, taking one small
strand at time which requires but
few moments. Do this at night

pears; afteer another application or
two its natural color is restored and

MOUND DEITY

The Ladies Aid of the Methodist
Episcopal church held it's star ses-
sion yesterday afternoon, the affair
being what Is termed the annual dol
lar day. The object of the day at
its inception three years ago was
that each member would in some
way earn one dollar to be given to
swell the soeiety's fund. but 1t will
be seen from the list of amounts
donated that several of the ladies
far, exceeded that The result was
the total sum of more than $3.50,
with promises Of money from some
who were prevented from attending.
There was general applause as each
lady contributed her amount and
told of the manner In which she had
earned it, many experiences" being
very amusing. To begin to elabor-
ate of the various methods by which
the money was earned would require
too much space, but it is safe to say
that almost every immaginable oc-
cupation within woman's scope was
employed. The list was headed by
La gentleman, Tweed Parker, whose
custom has been to contribute one
dollar tC, this fund. The affair was
held at the home of Mrs. r. n. Haw-
ley and at the conclusion the
hostess, assisted by her daughter,
Mrs. c. e. Richey, and several Of the
guests, served an ice course. There
were about forty ladies present. The
