DR.. Oscar Bowling, president Of the
Louisiana state board Of health and
leading sanitarian of the south, has
proclaimed bananas the cheapest food
on the market. Potatoes and onions
can now take a back seat till the
prices come down.
The average price Of bananas in
New Orleans is two cents a pound.
The edible portion Of the banana re-
tails at a fraction over two and q
half cents a pound.

In other words, two and three-Quar-
tiers pounds Of bananas, peeled, are
equal to pound of porterhouse steak.

bananas, the average price Of which
In New Orleans is seven cents, are
equal 10 one pound OF porterhouse
steak In nutritiye value.
Now that potatoes and onions
have gone up So much in price," said

WOMEN DOING MEMS WORK.

One of the most striking results of
the great war in Europe, is the ex-
tent to which women are doing the
work of men. Travellers to England
and rance report that practically
every able bodied man is in uniform
and women by the thousands are en-
gagged in doing mems work-acting
as conductors and drivers on the cars
and doing all sorts of heavy work be-
sides.
This shows unexpected possibilities
In what has been mistakenly called
the weaker sex Women are subject
to ailments which men do not have,
and when so ailing become weak,
helpless sufferers. But a remedy has
been found. Forty 40 years, Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
has bee nmaking such women well
and strong, and as able to do work
as any other woman.

LUCE ELECTRIC line
w. II. REYNOLDS ATTENDS THE
STOCKHOLDERS MEETING
IN MINNEAPOLIS.

w. r. Reynolds returned from
Minneapolis today, where he went to
attend the election of directors for
the Luce electric line, in which he is
interested. Geo. III. Waskey was
elected director for this county, but
will not return until Friday. There
are some elements of interest in con-
nection with the meeting, involving
the validity of proxies. 1t appears
that under the new law proxies to
vote at directors meetings and cleo
tons require war tax stamps to be
affixed. Some of the attendants at
this meeting had failed to provide for
this, and their proxies could not be
used. The mortgage voted at the
June meeting had been negotiated, 1t
is reported. While the road is not
paying on account of its limited ter
ritory and small equipment, it is
hoped that with the end OF the war
the line will be extended to a mileage
which will make it a factor among
the SO called granger lines.

A. A. Emmert, from near Nunda,

ty jail rather than pay a fine. In
this way, to effect the saving of an
initial payment of So, which would
have been the price Of a number on
notice of the county sheriff, he is
serving something like s25 in time.
He was stubborn from the first. He
was notified to get a license, then the
sheriff wrote him about it. He did
go so far as to get a number plate
from another machine and attach 1t
to the n he wa running, but the
sheriff refused to consider that suf-
ficient. He demanded a jury trial,
and counsel. The jury of his peers
was accorded him, but the counsel
was refused, unless upon his own
provision. He asserted that he had
paid for one license, and that that
was enough, and that he would serve
his time. His attitude vas M of
contemptuous indifference, under the
apparent belief that the county Off
GERS would rather excuse him than
keep him in Jail.

LYRIC THEATER
THE MAN WITHOUT A COUN-
TRY" FOR TWO DAYS.

The story was written by Edward
Everett Hale in the summer of 1863,
designed, in the words of the author,
as "a contribution, however humble,
towards the formation of a just and
true national sentiment of love to
the nation" 1t attained immense
popularity and undoubtedly had the
effect for which its author hoped. In
1888 a Spanish translation of the
story proved of use in Quickening ma
tional feeling in the trials of Peru.
In 1898, when the United States
went to war with Spain, the publish
ers of THE Outlook" reprinted 1T.
If The Man Without a Country" was
timely then, says its producers, 1T is
even more timely nov and the story
of Philip Nolan should have the same
appeal to present Americans that 1T
did to the men of the north, in the
a Of the civil war and to the men
of the nation In 1898.

lean residing in New York just prior
to Americas entrance into the world

motto is Peace at any price" The
head of this society is Phineas Blair,
and Alton is engaged to his daughter,
Barbara. The complications that
arise with the entrance of America
into the world war, and the striking
stand taken by John Alton furnished
a theme for one of the strongest
stories ever projected.

Self-contidence Is really based pri-

own powers or of his deficiencies. A
clear understanding Of this fact will
help to simplify the problem. 1t is
perfectly clear, for instance, that the
man who is poorly educated, who has
neglected his opportunities, who is un-
