A New Mineral Grinding
Mill.

1t should be of considerable
interest to people in the country
districts to learn that a mill has
been erected in Atlanta, Ga, for
the purpose of grinding various
mineral products, such as mica,
asbestos, tale and soapstone.
Many farmers have deposits
of these minerals on their prop
erty, but have never undertaken
to get them out in any quantity
because Of lack of knowledge
of the use Of the mineral and
the means of a ready market.
! understand this mill is in
the market for the purchasing in
any quantities any of these
minerals and they will be glad
to have correspondence with in
terested parties. Samples may
be forwarded and will receive
classification and market prices,
and accompanying samples
should be a statement of just
how much materiaHi is on hand
and to what extent it is being
worked. Give name Of and dis

About Us
Urging Pupils To Be Rebels.

Urging Pupils To Be Rebels.
II was not to be expected that
the bills made laws by Governor
whitman's signature to compel
physical training in public schools
and establish compulsory camp
training for older boys would have
the approval of the Woman's
Peace Party. Every citizen has
the right to believe anC declare that
an existing law 10 bad and should be
changed. No citizen has the right to
advocate defiance of laws now on the
statute books. The New York branch
of the Woman'n Peace Party seems
TO ignore this Distinction.
Mrs. Amos Pinchot says OF these
laws:
II no other methods can be
thought OF to cause their repeal,
Il II the duty Of all the public
school children to protest against
their enforcement This, at least,
would have tn, effect of crystal
iizing public sentiment against
the legislation.
Mrs. Crystal Eartman Benedict de-
clares:
/ would 20 a step further than
Mrs. Pinchot aid suggest that we
organize a parade of school chill
dren carrying banners stating
that they will absolutely refuse
to obey the law regarding mill
tary training In the public
schools.
A committee has been appointed to
look into the practicability of these
suggestions. Tie spokeswomen for
this doctrine of applied anarchy are
not to be thought of as irresponsible
persons. Mrs. q ,rtrude Minturn Pin
chot. the wife of Amos richards Emo
pinchot, inhe.its philanthropic
trends. Her husband rs n brother OF
clifford Pinchot. Mrs. Benedict, as
Miss Crystal Eastman. was appoint
cd by Governor Hughes a member
OF the employers liability commits
sion, and was secretary OF the body
that virtually outlined the existing
liability law.
The scheme to make anarchists OF
school children is nevertheless abb
surd as we'll as pernicious. 1t cannot
be made impressive without the help
of the vast masses OF parents. and
IL the vast masses OF parents were
against these laws. the laws would
be repealed very quickly That Is n
self-evident proposition. - Brooklyn

surely hamper digestion. -
The less some people eat the fatter

perceived through muscular movements
OF the stomach walls. Just as a worm

when the blood calls for nourishr1ent.
Obviously this is something vastly diff
ferent from mere appetite. which Ia sub

fcial influences. irrespective. OF any
physiological need of growth and waste.
Desserts such as fruits, lemonades
acid foods. and salads. except at break
fast are preferably eaten at the end OF
the meal. There, after a hearty meal,
they serve to stimulate the juices of the
allmentary tube by the addition OF the
acid naturally present in IT,.
To season food is sometimes to dimin-
ish or to conceal Its native flavor. The
natural tang of viands Is often an In
ytoxication OF the kind and quantity of
food needed. Better only c little salt
than sauces. mustard, peppers, catsups,
and condiments that hide the foods own
flavor.
