ASuggestion
Tobacco Growers

Nothing, in our opinion, is so liable
to seriously effect the present satisfac-
tory prices of Tobacco as the over
crowding of the market.
Our advice to you is, bring each
wagon load to market just as soon as
you get it ready. Don't delay until
you get your whole crop, or the most
Of it stripped. To do so will be a mis-
take.
A steady market is always better
than a glutted one. Don't get too
much here at once. AS our house is
the largest, we are helped most by a
rush; but, we know that what is not
sood for you is not, in the long run,
good for us.

Madame de Thebes was Anna Veto

Madame Thebes claimed to have
foretold many great events in history
including the present war. 1t had
been her custom for many years to Is
sue an annual almanac" in which she
predicted the future of the new year
In 1913, the year before the great Eu-
ropean war, she published her predic-
tons for 1914. Among other things
she said;
War will continue to menace the
world, as the planet Mars will pre-
dominate throughout the year. Pro-
found conditions amounting to a po-
litical upheaval will take place in
Germany and the national life of that
nation will be completely transform
ed"
In August, this year, Madame Thebes
declared peace would come suddenly

overnight" she said, and soldiers on
both fronts will be called home to

dont Garnet and the Marquis de Mores
and the death of President Faure.
1t was said she read the Tragedy in
