How to Keep Vegetables.

Editor of The Dawson News: The old
South Carolina plan for drying vegetables
might be helpful to our Terrell county house
keepers right now when garden truck is
plentiful and in danger of going to waste
unless promptly handled.
Pick any kind of string beans while thew
are young and tender, string and snap for
cooking. Place them in clean vessel and
cover with boiling water; let stand for ten
minutes, drain water off carefully and
spread beans out on clean boards or cloths
and place in the sun to dry. After they have
dried perfectly put in small sacks and hang
them up, summing occasionally until they
are used. Soak overnight before using. Okra
may be cured in the same way, cutting the
pods in quarter-inch pieces, stringing as
you would red pepper, and hanging them
In the sun. This method of saving yegeta-
bles is cheaper and less trouble than cam
ming in these war times when cans are
scarce and high. and nothing is better for
making your winter soups. M. C. H.

How the Bank Makes" Money!.
From the American Banker,


1t would seem that after the bank takes
your money, protects it, pays it gack on de-
mand or as your order lends Won money
discounts your neighbours note for YOU. Il
would have nothing else to offer in your
behalf. But it hast "makes" money for
you, and incidentally makes money for it.
self. IVA
When you see the president or the
cashier of bank signing his name to a
row OF four Grip new bills (they ALWAYS
come In sheets of four) you may wonder
what ne is doing, and what is behind it all.
We will show you by a simple illustration.
Let US suppose you want to borrow a thou
sand dollars and offer your note to your
banker He knows you, knows that you
VIII pay, and wants to accommodate Won.
He looks at his books and says: 81 can't
spare the money. The law says I must have
ntteen cents out of every dollar l owe nv
deposltors in cash, or where I can get it on
demand; and l have just what the law re-
qulres Ii | give you credit for the note
and let you check against it | increase nv
debts and make my condition worse, for if
do not pay you in cash must stand ready
to do So"
But being resourceful banker. and
knowing how, he asks you to wait a minute
while ne goes to his strong box He finds
government bond which he bought a wear
ago when ne had plenty of spare money. for
cash, and comes back smiling and saws +:
very well, in three days you can have your
money. | will turn this bond into bank
notes for you" So he sends the bond to
Washington, and in return the government
sends him 200 crisp new fve-dollar bills.
TO be signed by two officers of the bank
cut and handed out to you.
The government keeps the bond as secur-
iity that he will redeem the notes in claw
full money" on demand-that is, pay green
backs or gold for them if demanded (but
this is seldom done), pays him interest on
the bond and you pay him interest ON
your note for the use of his notes, and
both are satisfied.
You see, by this proposition, he has
turned your note into bank notes, with him
self behind it and the government behind
him. Your promise wouldn't go very far
from home, these promises will. Every
BODY knows them. They are money! and
circulate as SUCH
Now what has the banker done by this
process! he has furnished the community
as we'll as you with circulating medium,
handy to carry, cheap to create. and sat-
lstactory to all He has taken your credit
he makes money and you take the money
ne has made and make some money for
yourself. 1t is a very simple proposition.
understood by few, but practiced by manv
If you don't fully understand it, ask your
banker to tell you more about it. This
feature of banking, however, is performed
in this country only by banks under con-
troll of the federal government, namely, the
national banks and federal reserve banks
but is a common banking practice the
world over, differing in form but not in
substance, it being universal function of
the bank to turn credit which is unknown
into that which is known and will there
fore be freely taken, and bank note credit
is the most common and useful form.

The Car and His DeliIah.

Chas. Johnson in North American Review
Nicholas was not the first, nor will he be
the last, to yield up judgment and will into
the hands of a queenly and beautiful wo-
man. The motive of Samson and Delilab
of the vale of Sorek is a scarlet thread that
runs through all history And the Empress
Alexandra herself, a broken-hearted wo-
man from the beginning, was led to the
brink of the precipice by forces of tremen-
dous and universal strength; her passionate
and morbid love for her invalid son, born
after long waiting, whose pains were allie
Waited, it would seem, by Rasputin's mag
netlc force, just as the fatal malady of the
Cars father, Alexander the Third was
hghtened by the similar but more benign
power of Father John of Cronstadt; her
obstinate and unconverted devotion for the
land OF her birth; her passion for auto
cratic power. These are not vulgar or triv-
lal motives; they have swayed great souls
through all history.
The element of mysticism, even though
1t be morbid and dangerous mysticism
runs through the whole drama We shall
l think, be quite misled if we think of it
as merely vulgar charlantanism, like Car
lyle's probable misleading of Cagliostro.
Nicholas the Second, like all Russians who
are true to their blood, was impressed and

world. All these men are full of the sense
of the supernatural, ardently revering their
Woodworking saints, in no way thinking
that the age of immediate divine interven-
lions has passed. Nor can we venture to
say, in these days of revived belief in the
invisible, that the Russian millions are
wrong 1t is this universal mood which
gives Rasputin his power and opportunity
to the benign influence of Father John of
Cronstadt. And Nicholas the Second was as
fully possessed by this mystical sensibility
as any of his peasants. Stumbling in the
midst of mighty difficulties, he longed for
oracles from heaven to make his intricate
pathway clearer through the darkness. And
If, blinded by devotion to the beautiful wo-
man who dominated him, he followed lying
oracles it is no marvel; for Satan himself
is transformed into an angel of light. That
fatally dangerous masquerade is the ex-
perience of saints and Missionaries through
all history.

AERIAL PROGRESS.

Twenty years ago the country was amused
over utterly preposterous reports of seeing
absolutely impossible airships here, there
and everywhere. Nobody remembers now,
if indeed anybody then understood. how the
airship fake got started, but any newspaper
Tile will show what wide swath it cut in the
news reports of the day. Scarcely any
community in the whole country failed to
contribute some sort of yarn to push along
the excitement over the hoax. In some
communities some people paid real quarters
for admission to an enclosure in which they
might inspect a weird looking contraption
OF laths and canvas, supposed to be an air.
ship that had landed in the darkness of the
previous night. The American people en-
joyed the sell, be it understood, because
1t was thoroughly well understood that a
practical airship was as far beyond the
realm of common sense as was perpetual
motion.
What about it? Oh, nothing except that
Just twenty years after the public laugh
ed over the fact that anybody could accept
aerial navigation as practical proposition
alrshlps are performing vital function in
winning the greatest war in the history of
the world. The zeppelin as long-distance
offensive agent has proved a failure as vet,
but the airplane has taken its place as a
factor of primal Importance in land opera
lions. Prior to every important artillery
and infantry engagement in the present
war battle is fought for control of the
air. And the side that wins control of the
ar, or even preponderating advantage
IN the air, has won a distinct and possibly
a determining advantage over the enemy
Control of the air means opportunity for
ascertaining and blocking all the defensive
or counter offensive moves of the enemy. II
was IN the air the allies won the first round
OF the present epoch-making battle on the
western front
So far has the airship travelled in two
decades.

HYsTERIA IN THE sADDL

1t is well enough to pay as we &c while
at war, but the average man sees no reason
why the burden could not be extended over
two decades
1t so happens that the present is a time
of extortionately high prices on account of
the war, and while some talk of a proba-
bility of a war that will last two or three
years the true judgment seems to be that
it will be over in a year, if not before
Christmas. The United States will have no
trouble to meet the financial burdens which
the war will impose, but the people of the
country can see no reason why congress
or others in authority should lose their
heads in a matter so vital to the public as
taxation. If half billion year were rails
ed out of taxation to meet war costs the
total cost could be retired very comfortably
by the present generation without hardship
or strain.
Hysteria seems now much more in evil
dence in Washington than it is anywhere
else in the country.

Mr.. SUNDAYS METHODS.

Atlanta, which loves sensation and no.
toriety of any kind that attracts people, is
beside herself at the prospect of having Mr..
William Sunday hold revival services in that
city. An extract from graphic article tell
ing of the revival services Mr.. Sunday is
now holding in New York city says:
when l get to heaven, as in due
time l shall, praise God, the first thing
I'm going to do is to walk up to Jesus
and say, Jesus, where does Moses
mother live?' And Jesus will call one
of the angels and say, Go page Moses
mother and when you find her, tell her
Billy Sunday is here and wants to see
her. And then I'm going to ask her
how much old Pharaoh paid her that
time for taking care of her own son.
I've got an awful curiosity to know all
about that"
An utterance in spirit and words like this
from the pulpit is calculated to-well, let
US say impress many people AS to how it will
impress is a matter of individuality. Manv
of US have been reared to listen to pulpit
utterances in reverent and receptive spirit
Mr.. Sunday seems to be able to talk after
this fashion and gather fame and popularity
and to thrive as well. But there are men
and women who will read this who will Won
der, as we do, how they would feel at hear
ing such words in the pulpit Tor out of the
pulpit from, let US say, Bishop Gambler or
7. M. Galloway, or DIR. John E. White or
7. B. Stanford Imagine them indulging in
such spirit and words as a means to glori-
flying God and saving souls.
1t is to be hoped Mr.. Sunday will be con-
tent to let Georgia people seek salvation
through other agencies than his peculiar
methods
The Sermon on the Mount survives and
will abide with US always, as will the last
loving words in Gethsemane and on Calvary,
but one trembles to think of Mr.. Sunday in
terpreting these

AND THE FARMER SMILES.

1t must make the farmer smile to himself
as he reads the appeals to him Ito raise all
the foodstuffs he can this year" The farm
er who knows anything at all always raises
all he can. He would be a very foolish
farmer if he did otherwise. It is a good
deal like telling the merchant to buy and
sell all the goods he can this year.
The farmer might learn something to his
advantage in the government reports by find
ing out what kinds of food are short in
supply, and make more money and serve
the country by devoting more time and at
tentiOn to those particular crops, but to sim
ply tell him to raise all he can is wasted
energy. He will do it, anyway.
