The Ori9in of Dixie.

The Wall Street Journal in reviewing
the London Times history of the Cit:-
zens' Bank of Louisiana at New Orleans,
the bank that after eighty years of hon
orable history was converted into the
Citizens Rank & Trust Company in
1911. gives an interesting account of the
origin of the word Dixie" as applied
to the South.
The Citizens Bank was so closely
identified with the South that it gave
it the name Dixie Land" since pre-
served in the famous Southern war song
Dixie" 1t came about in this way:
Prior to the Civil War in the States,
the Citizens Bank had the power to is
sue paper money notes, just as the bank
OF England does to day. These bills
were issued in denominations of ten dol
lars and twenty dollars, to the extent of
a few millions. The ten-dollar bills
were more common. They were we'll
known, and passed all over the country
These ten-dollar bills were engraved
in French, and on the backs they bore
very prominently the French word DIX.
The ignorant Americans living along the
the upper Mississippi River. not know
ing how to pronounce the French word,
called the bills "Dixies." Finally the
banks money became SO popular that
Louisiana was referred TO as THE Land
of the Dixies," or "Dixie Land" AT
terward the term was made TO apply to
all the Southern States.

The Missouri Hen.

Here is pen picture of the Missouri
hen, drawn by Governor Major in his
speech to the Missouri Federation of
Commercial Clubs, held at Jefferson
City.
''The Missouri hen lays "a eggs for
each man, woman and child in the Uni
ted States.
THE output of the Missouri ben is
$50, 10000 per year, which exceeds
the wheat crop in the whole State
of Arkansas for any given year, the en-.
tire cotton crop of the States OF Florida,
Tennessee and Louisiana and the gold
produced from the earth of Arizona,
Colorado and California.
IF the eggs laid annually by the Mis
souri, hen were placed end TO end they
would reach around the world four
times.
IF the Missouri hen cackled every
time she laid an egg (allowing by all the
laws of science that her cackle would be
heard 100 yards and that each hen in
turn took up the echo), the announce
ment would reach $3.50 times around
the woodland that is going sonnet
in the egg laying contest the Mis-
souri, hen took the prize of scoring 2Se
in one year. If this same hen-the Mis-
souri, hen-could be placed in proper file
and taught to scratch Systematically,
she would have dug the Panama Canal

fasting over the proposition. Farm

1t pays to wear smiling face
And laugh our troubles down;
For all our little troubles wait
Our laughter or'our frown.
Beneath the magic Of smile
Our doubts will fade away,
AS melts the frost in early spring
Beneath the sunny ray.
Ii pays TO make worthy cause
BY making it our own,
To give the current of our lives
A trus and noble tone.
1t pays 10 comfort heavy hearts,
Oppressed with dull despair,
And leave in sorrow-darkened lives
A CLEAN of brightness there.

A Few Thoughts on Co-ope-
ration.

The first form of cooperation is with
yourself. The first way 10 cooperate
with yourself is to-get into line with ma
ture AMI health. Get enough sleep
Keep clean Don't worry. Eat spinach
Cooperate with your family Be on
time. Do your part Think up few
pleasant stories to .ell at meals Don't
make the family table general scrap
ping ground.
Cooperate in business Pull with the
men around you Don't pull against
them. No man will ever succeed who
has not learned how TO work smoothly
with other men.
Cooperate with your neighbors. At
tend TO your own business. Discourage
gossip. Think and speak we'll of peo-
pie. Don't always be looking for trou-
BILE. Keep your backyard clean.
Cooperate with your city Post your
self on civic questions. Read both pa
pers. Vote according to principle and
for men with good records, regardless of
party
Co operate with the milton. Post your
self on national questions Learn to dis
cuss them intelligently.s Make up your
own mind Don't be llerded after the
manner of sheep.
Last, but most important, cooperate
in the spiritual world. Listen for the
call of the still, small voice Do not dis
regard your intuitions. DO not crush
out your inspirations. BY CO operation
get into line with the unseen world 1t
surrounds us, like the atmosphere in
which we live.
Cooperate not only with those who
live in The present, but with those who
lived in the past and with those who
will people the world in the future
