Tennis is over with for the year.
Golf is at an end. The great open out

months is closing up its season
What are you going TO do about it,

Man who have sacrificed your few
pounds Of flesh to the healthful strain
and have received in exchange tonic

soften, your clear eye dull, your quick

weather because you fall prey to
tonsilitis or grip or find yourself pres

New Industry in Mississippi.


The advent of the Mexican cotton
boil weevil has caused at least one
new industry to spring up in Pike
county, namely, the gathering, drying,
grinding and shipping leaves of the
sassafras tree to be used as an article
Of commerce. The product is known
as "file," and seven barrels of it, ag-
gregating $50 pounds, we're shipped
to New Orleans from here recently by
F. w. Allen, progressive farmer, re-
siding seven miles east of Magnolia.
Mr.. Allen has a mill made specially
for grinding. "file," and he shipped a
small quantity of it last year. While
the article is used extensively in the
preparation of "gumbo file," the de-
hcious soup which has made French
cooking famous, the demand for it
is very limited. The leaves are gath
cred in July and August, and are thor
oughly dried in the shade before being
carried to the mill. 1t requires about
three hundred pounds of green leaves
to make one hundred pounds of meal

HID DISGRACE FROM PARENTS

They Had "Done Time"

In most cases men sentenced to i'm

The case of Nolan L. Gartner, an ex.
convict who returned to Kingston, o.,
the other day after serving a two-year
sentence for wrecking a bank, Is an
exception. During all the time he
was in prison his mother, eighty-six
years Of age, had supposed he was ''in
the west on business" She greeted
him with smiles on his liberation, lit
tie thinking that the weekly letters
she had received from him telling of
business movements were mailed from
a prison through the friendly assis-
lance of the officials.
Another case was that of Ado1ph
Rebstock, an immigrant who killed a
man in quarrel at Chicago shortly
after his arrival in this country. He
received a sentence Of ten years. He
gave cousin $4,000 for investment
when he went behind the bars
The cousin opened a corner grocery
store IN the name of the convict. The
latter wrote monthly to his parents in
Berlin that he was prospecting slowly.
He was paroled in six years.
The grocery store had grown into a
flourishing business. He took his cous,
in into partnership and sent for his
parents. They never knew of his i'm.
prisonment Shortly before they died
a discharged clerk told the story to
them but they refused to believe him
and they declared him lunatic.

Presidents Comment.
At the White House yesterday, the
President when questioned about that
feature Of his address. explained that
he meant to say that it was very
awkward to deal with foreign nations
which took the position that the United
States did not live up to its treaty obli-
cations. That particular phrase of the
address. however, was widely discussed
in official and congressional circles. and

appears from the Statement Exhibiting
the Moral and Mental Progress and Con-
ditions Of India During the Years 1911-12
and the Nine Preceding Years. issued
by the British-Indian government, that
the gackwar's educational reforms have
made remarkable headway
AS result of his interest and aid
an act was passed in 1904 to extend
free compulsory education to various
parts of his state. There was an i'm
mediate increase in the number Of
schools following the passage OF this
act until in 1911 there were 6,306 stu
dents in forty-one English schools and
1871 students in 2,9S5 yernacular
schools, and this number has since in
creased considerably. But the gaekwar's
activities have not stopped with the edu-
cation of the young. He has also fostered
agriculture within his domains by estab-
fishing seed depots. employing specialists
and by making arrangements for instruc-
ton and demonstrations.
