Nothing is more conducive to the
upbuilding of any community than its
financial institutions, especially if they
are run on the same liberal yet conser-
vative lines as the First State Bank,
the oldest in the parish.
1t was in the pioneer days that the
First National Bank was inaugurated.
Seeing that the State laws at that time
allowed more liberal dealing with
their patrons than the National laws,
regarding mortgages, and being desir-
Gus of serving their patrons in the most
liberal way, it was changed to the First
State Bank in 1909.

has steadily grown, not by leaps and
bounds, but by a steady upward rise,
until to-day it ranks with the foremost
of its kind in the South.
Never has the First State Bank been
approached on am matter concerning
the welfare of the community without
the most liberal response, and it is no
doubt due to this fact that its rapid
growth may be attributed.

UGH9 CALOMEL MAKES
YOU DEATHLY SICK,
Stop Using Dangerous Drug Be-
fore 1t SaliVateS You!
It's Horrible!

You're bilious, sluggish, consti-
pated and believe you need vile,
dangerous calomel to start your
liver and clean your bowels.
Here's my guarantee: Ask your
druggist for 80 cent bottle of Dod-
sons Liver Tone and take a spoon
full tonight. Ifi doesn't start your
liver and straighten you right up
better than calomel and without
gripping or making you sick | want
you to go back to the store and get
your money.
Take calomel today and tomorrow
|gou will feel weak and sick and
nauseated. Don't lose days work
Take a spoonful of harmless, veget.
able Dodson's Liver Tone tonight
and wake up feeling great. It's
perfectly harmless, so give it to
j, our children any time. 1t can't
salivate, so let them eat ANYTHING
afterwards.

Extension of the r. F. d. Service.

July / will see the u S R F D
extended to more than million
farms not at present receiving the
service. This, it is claimed, will be
done, without additional cost to the
public, by the readjustments of
routes so as to avoid Implications
and unnecessary service and by the
installation of motor service upon
many routes. AS the good roads
movement bears fruit in the shape
of passable highways the year around,
more and more routes will be added
until practically every farm in the
United States will be on a rural free
delivery route. This, with parcel
post facilities for the market of
farm produce, will meaH millions of
dollars to the American farmer.

COTTON SUPERIOR TO WOOL
As Material for Flags and Deco
ratiVe Bunting.

Washington, May 2S:-Cotton has
b zen officially declared superior to
wool as a material for flags and dec
orative bunting.
This announcement has just been
made by the treasury department
after exhaustive tests, and The fact
is sure to have an important infu-
ence upon the requisitioSs of the
various departments of the Govern
ment for supplies for the next fiscal
year, beginning July l, 1915.
1t is left within the discretion of
officials to order eithermaterial. tut
as cotton has been so soauthoritative-
ly pronounced better and is undeni-
ably cheaper, one may easily guess
what the average official will do in
the face of urgent suggestions from
his superiors that every feasible
economy should be practiced at a
time like the present.
The tests were made by actual
comparative use of the two materi-
ais on United States revenue cutters
and simultaneously by laboratory
processes at the bureau of standards
in this CITY.
