PAYING POSTAGE ON PARCEL
POST PACKAGES.

The issuance of an elevcn-ccnt
stamp has been authorized by the
Postmaster General, and the Post Of
flee Department is now prepared to
supply stamps of this denomination
to the postmasters of the country,
Postmaster Fuller was informed today.
The new stamp Will be used chiefly
in preparing postage on parcels and
postage and insurance fee on insured
parcels amounting to II cents.
The local postage rate upon parcel
post is II cents upon parcel weighing
twelve and thirteen pounds. In the
first and second zones packages weigh
ing seven pounds take II cents.
In the fourth zone, il cents is re-
CURED for two-pound parcels, and in
the seventh zone for one-pound par
cells The rate in the seventh zone
for eleven pounds is Sill.
Expected to Meet Widespread Need,
Hence it was found that an eleven
cent stamp would meet a widespread
need and demand. Postmasters desir-
ing a supply of the new stamps may
now mako roquieition for it.
Ordinary stamp issues now en-
brace denominations from 1 cent to
II cents, inclusive, and five additional
-15 cents, 20 cents, 80 cents, so cents

HOGS PLENTIFUL.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 17-According
to farmers and others who have trav-
eled pretty extensively over Kinds
county this summer, this section will
this year produce more pork than has
been the case in many years.
1t is stated that the number of
hogs in this county was more than
doubled during the last two or three
years and it is claimed that the breed
of hogs is wonderfully improved,
most of the farmers discording the
razor back variety for the Poland
China, Berkshire, Duroc, and others
of blooded varieties.
In Jackson it is self evident there
are more hogs this year than ever
and families who few months ago
would have regarded a pig as nuts
ance are this fall prepared to kill any
! vrho~o FROM tu nve hundred
pounds of meat, raised off of refuse
and at great saving to the family
So far as can be learned hog chol
era has not been prevalent in Kinds
county during the present summer
and there seems to be no reason to
fear an outbreak now, though prudent
growers never fail to take all precau-
tions against this disease which in
the past has resulted disastrously to
them.
| AS is well known pork is one of the
highest priced meats sold in the av
erage market, and wherever a family
| has a hog there will be rejoicing
when hog killing time arrives.

william Marion Reedy has said
this is sex o'clock"
SO writes Dr. Lee Alexander Stone
OF Memphis in the New York Medical
Journal, and adds:
"Reedy is right; it is sex o'clock.
Already has the hands of the clock
of destiny begun to point to a new
era in our civilization"
Dr.. Stone, who takes sex discussion
as his subject, continues in part:
During the time of nature worship
a finer and nobler civilization in many
respects existed than that which is
being enjoyed today. There can be
no doubt that when man wOrships
at the shrine OF nature and not the
idols of Mammon he surpasses those
wOrshippers before affairs wherein
may be found the cause for race
decay. More nature worship and less
dollar worship will elevate all peoples
of the world TO a higher plane of
civilization and intellectually than
that which they are now enjoying
and cause them to race toward an
Utopiasand the birth of the Superman.
Man Succeeds Woman.
The advent OF ancient man into
power, succeeding as he did, woman,
marked the bilth of sensuality. Prior
to that time, when woman and the
worship of the female principle in re-
production were the strongholds of an
advancing civilization, finer element
was present in the civilizing quail
tiles than has been noted since man
assumed the reins of statecraft.
i Whenever a nation holds the fe-
male sex in great respect, and atten-
! ton is paid to their qualifications to
advise, that nation ascends to heights
not to be reached by one which re-
spects only the male intellect. This
statement may he verified by viewing
closely the causes of the rise and fall
Of ancient nations.
Nearly all of the gods worshipped
/ by the people of ages ago belonged
according to some ancient writer's, to
the female sex and were worshipped
as mothers of creation. After the
birth of the patriarchal age, because
