THE WOODEN INDIAN


Perhaps the most effective figure
in keeping up the mental association
of the red maa and the soothing weed,
tobacco, is the familiar figure Of a
brave Indian that has adorned the
exterior of nearly every retail cigar
store throughout the land. Where
or when the wooden Indian became
the symbol Of the tobacco dealer has
not been definitely determined. But
the death Of Pierre 6. Gaspari, of
Baltimore, years ago, disclosed the
fact that he was the man who, in
this country at least, practically ere
ated the warrior Of wood.
Gaspari, who was a Frenchman,
arrived in Baltimore at an early age.
A few years later found him as
tobacco merchant. His was the first
establishment Of the kind in the city,
and he was tire pioneer tobacco deal
er Of Baltimore. Doubtless he, too,
saw the significance Of the red man,
for before hF had been in business
very long a wooden Indian. resplend-
ent in war paint and varniy,l, proffer-
ed q bundle of carved cigars to all
who passed Gaspari's place Of busi-
ness.

WAR ONLY ON ARMED
MENn-GENERAL LEE

About the same time that Pfesi-
dent Lincoln was preparing the rules
Of civilized war, General Lee was
preparing to march into Pennsylva-
MIA. Before doing so, he also showed
the American spirit in war BY a pro-
clamation he issued. no greater dis
grace could befall an army" he said,
than the preparation Of outrages
on the innocent and defenseless and
the wanton destruction Of private
property II must be remembered
that we make war only upon armed
men,"
Lincoln was a voice for America
and for civilization when be spoke
even of carrying on a war with NAL
ice toward none, with charity for ALL"
Lee was voice for America and for
civilization when he not only declared
that the true soldier makes war only
ON armed men," but refused to speak
of his opponents as "the enemy"
Many other Southerners, ike the
writer, have heard Confederate offic-
ers tell of hearing Lee give an order
by saying, Charge the people at
that point" He never said "Charge
the enemy"
How different IS all this from the
spirit in which Germany has carried
on this war! Her people started out
singing a Hymn Of Hate for Eng
land" She started out in the Belgian
matter by declaring it was ''neces-
sity" to win a victory, instead Of
thinking it first of all a necessity"
to keep her word. And in Belgium
she has broken nearly all the soften
ing rules of war which Lee and Lin
coin and France and England have
set up and which Germany herself
in 1907 promised to observe.-Pro-
gressive Farmer.

WOMEN HELP ON FARMS

Girls and women are doing remark
able work on the farms Of the West
ern agricultural states and in the
East, observed an Iowa farmer who
has been making a tour of many Of
the farming states. They have not
only shown their intense patriotism
by responding to the call for help on
the farms, but they have demonstrat-
ed an adaptability that has astonished
most of the farm owners, who had
believed that women were not fitted
for the heavier work on the farm.
Moreover, they have gone about their
work with enthusiasm and cheerful
ness that has made the social life on
the farms much more enjoyable.
Girls from 16 to u do almost as
much work in the fields a. men who
ave been employed in farm labor
for years. They enjoy the freedom,
and the perfume Of the growing fields
apparently, and they make a jolly
job out Of their work. Most of the
girls have improved wonderfully in
looks and in physical condition.
Estimates of the agricultural ey-
perts and statisticians as to the vaIi-
Gus crops this year, it is believed,
will be mere than realized. The farm
ers have shown their patriotism by
increasing their acreage and giving
more attention in everv way to the
raising of crops, and the result will
be larger crops in eVefv section of
the United States than we have ever
known. The wheat crop may reach
if 1t does not exceed 1000, 100000
bushels Farmers Home Journal

CASING N ON CONSCIENCE


Farmer johnson was Of the indie
pendent class. His farm was broad
aered and fertile. His cattle we're
sleek and fat. His hogs were the envy
Of all his neighbors. And his fields
were rank in waving grain and corn
higher than ones head. In the bank
he had more than a comfortable bal
ance. House and buildings We're Of
the best.
Each issue he had bought Liberty
bonds. He had given their value no
thought, for they were the securities
of his government; good as bank
notes and as well backed, And then
along came an oil stock salesman,
cornered him in the barn lot, painted
a picture Of past earnings in oil and
flashed lot Of newspaper clippings
ON bond quotations,
For the first time in years he doubt
ed his judgment. But he still had
sufficient confidence in it to follow its
dictates and refuse to trade his bonds
for stock in the Wildcat Develop
ment COMPANY. And though he dis
missed the agent he couldn't entirely
dismiss his apprehensions. For days
he brooded over the problem.
Then one day he decided to get rid
Of his bonds. And by strange coin
cidence he found ahead Of him at the
bank window another farmer on a
similar misssn
Il want to get my cash out of these
bonds" he was telling the cashier. Il
can get more interest on the money
than the bonds pay. And the money
isn't selling at discount, Besides /
need it."
The cashier protested, then tried
argument, Don't you know it is I'M
patriotic to sell your bond? 2" he asked
Eve will lend you money upon it if
your only reason is need of ready
cash, But while the war is still on
and Uncle Sam is asking further as-
sistance, it is rank disloyalty to sell
bonds at discount"
'Well, maybe SO, but | want the
cash." the farmer insisted.
The cashier began counting it out.
GLOW much did you borrow from the
bank last year?' he asked.
About five hundred dollars. III
need about that much this year"
you'll not get it, the cashier de-
clared, decisiyely. you've killed your
credit with this bank, which is nation
al in more than name. Our money
will 60 to the men who are willing
to help the nation. And you're not
that kind. You'll have to borrow else
Where We intend to stand by our
country and its friends"
Farmer Johnson watched his neigh
Dor stink out like whipped cur,
Something deep within famed white
hot. Across the doorway Old Glory
suspended, and his hat came off as
he espied it cleaning there.
He has every one Of those bonds
today. In fact, he has a partner for
each one Of them.-EX
