Only a Leaf

When we see a leaf fall from a
tree do we wonder how that leaf
can be converted into money?
Hardly! IT'S only leaf.
Yet at this season Of the year
there are countless billions Of
leaves falling from trees, and
every single leaf is of value if the
human brain cares to utilize it.
These leaves can be swept into
a pile in the back yard, or else
where, and converted into a heap
for use on the garden next sum-
mer. There is. no better fertilizer.
They will make the radishes,
the string beans, tomatoes and
other garden truck spring into life
as if touched by magic wand.
They will be a constant reminder
that even the dropping Of a leaf is
significant in its commercial value.
Convert your leaves into wealth.
IT'S an easy thing to do.

related in Low Twelve should be
in the possession of every Mason,

who love their fellow-men, and
who never turn deaf ear to the
cry of suffering humanity"

PERSONAL MAGNETISM

By theron @. Dumont. Pub
lished by Advance Thought Pub
fishing Co., Chicago, price $l.1O.
How to influence the magma
ton, reason or will Of another has
long been the desire of many peo-
pie who know thatitis possible to
exert the power in a very marked
degree. Just how to do this is
taught in a book OF, 200 pages by
Prof. Dumont, who is instructor
in the art and science of personal
magnetism in Paris, France. There
is no doubtlthat some people pos
sess magnetism in a more intense
degree than do others, and there
is no denying the fact that it is the
man with power and magnetism
who wins the big battles in the
every walk of life. In this little
book are given practical instruc-
tons in the development OF nat
ural powers, self-protection
against the sinisters schemes Of
others and turning of failure into
success. No one can intelllgently
read the book without being
greatly helped in the endless strug-
gle for advantage.

WHAT OF THE SOUTH?

While we are sending ship loads
Of Christmas presents to the or
phaned children of Europe, and
contributing millions for the
Outstanding of heather lands,
let us consider matters a little
nearer home.
A great section of our own
country is face to face with the
possibility of financial ruin. A
gallant people are making a
heroic stand in the face of over
whelming odds.
The South is not able to market
its cotton crop because of the war.
And for its ready cash il depends
largely upon that crop. And
without cash it will be ruined.
There are many millions of dol
lars in the north waiting for prof
table investment.
What better could the north do
than to aid the south by buying its
cotton and holding it until the
markets of the world are again
opened?
1t would be 4 legitimate invest
ment-doubtless a profitable one
and a brotherly action by a
prosperous section of the country
in aid of another section in dis
tress.
1t is not charity. The south
does not want that. It's pride
would not consent.
But it would be good business
sense. And the south would well
come that.
We of America should think
first OF Americans.
If possible, buy a bale of cotton
In relieving the south you re-
lieve America-your country

ON THE REBOUND

The slump in business resulting
from the war has been felt keenly
throughout the country in all
lines of commerce.
But it is on the rebound, and
unless all signs fail it will soon be
hitting the pike on the home
stretch.
We of this community may do
much to strengthen the feeling Of
optimism even before the general
relief is felt.
We can keep what money we
have in circulation at home by
doing our buying from our home
merchants.
We can add to our financial
store by shipping our surplus
products abroad and keeping that
money at home.
That is common sense. Let's
all take a dose.

NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH"
Bobbs, Merrell, Co., Indianapolis.
Price Soc, by Fredric S. lsham,
author Under the Pass" and
Half a Chance"
Nothing But the Truth" is
without doubt the most mirth-pro-
voking book published since Mark
Twain's "Innocents Abroad ap-
peard. AS its title implies, through
out the book this idea is carefully
observed.
The hero, in order to keep a
bet, determines to tell the truth,
in all places, to all people and at
all times. ITO enjoy it one must
read it, and to read it one must
enjoy it." Imagine the hero tell
ing the unvarnished truth when
speaking of the Bis h 0 D S
antediluvian sermons and Miss
Schremerhorn's student voice.
The situations are ridiculous at
times, but always with a great
deal of human nature to them.

REVIEW OF RECENT
BOOKS

by Curtis Book Co., Los Angeles,
CAL, price $3.50.
This book deals in an interest
ing and instructive manner with
Theosophy and kindred subjects.
There are many books which treat
on the mind and soul Of man and
on metaphysics and are valuable
helps to students who desire to
devote themselves seriously to the
culture of true spirituality and,
while many of them are excellent,
THE Voice of Isis" is undoubtedly
the best that has appeared for
some time. 1t is not a book full
of vague theory, but is rich in
practical instruction, written in a
style both simple and scholarly.
We heartily commend it to all
who are earnestly seeking assist
ance. along the road to the higher
and more abundant life.

Little Rock, April 3.-An eff

in it is destroyed by exemptions.
The fact that child labor is not
now as serious a problem in this
