The Worlds Greatest
Financier.

The worlds greatest hnancler
is the Louisiana farmers house
wife. Her daily investments ex'
ceed in shrewdness the clever
transactions of Wall Street and
no business concern or corpora
ton, however ably differed, has
ever been able to approach her in
economy. She is the nations
ablest trader and her transactions
more nearly reflect the progress
and prosperity of the country
than the reports OF our clearing
houses.
All legislation, financial or
otherwise, ought to be so plain
that the housewife can under
stand it. Our Legislators, STATE
and national, shoot so far over
the mead of the average citizen
that those who are unable to EN-
ploy an attorney and accept his
statements in blind faith, mus
forever remain in ignorance o.
our law. Of course we have Sc
many laws that no human can eS G,
pect to read them and survive th'
ordeal, but any person who feels
an irresistible impulse to leglslat'
should try his proposed law or
his neighbor and get it dowr
where the common people cal
understand it before attempting
to put it on the statute books
