BUSINESS WOMAN'S CLUB
HAD A BANQUET

Last night at the Harrington hall
hotel, the members of the Woman's
business Club of this city held very
interesting and enjoyable banquet
The table which seated 80 was bright
ly decorated with American Beauty
roses and large birthday cake upon
which was placed one lighted taper,
Idenoting the age of the club.
The honor guest on this occasion
was Miss Lily White and her mother,
|of st. Augustine. Miss White is the
state president of the Business Wom-
ans Club and one of the vice presi-
dents of the National Business Wom-
ans Club. besides being an important
figure in other organizations. The
talk which she gave the club members
last night was most interesting and
thoroughly enjoyed. Miss White is
an exceptionally good business wom-
an, having had the best of training,
which experience she shares with her
comrades.
All present seemed unusually "pep-
lish," especially the POSTMASTER, Miss
Mamie Sheppard. In a very clever
and attractive manner she kept every
eLe on the alert for responses to her
many requests. Among some of the
limpromptu stunts given i'm a very
Iskillful manner were songs by Misses
Onie Chazal and Katherine Pyles.
Miss Pearl Fausett, who was accom-
panied on the piano by Miss Mabel
Akin, sang very sweetly several
numbers. Fascinating Anne Faux
ner, the wonderful little dancer, de-
lighted those present with several solo
dances.
Miss Margaret Taylor's talk on the
future development of the club, was
splendid and received much applause.
Miss Alice Bullock responded to a
toast for the outgoing officers, after
which hat containing numbers was
passed to every one to take a draw
for five lucky numbers. which called
for attractive prizes given by the fol-
lowing business houses: B. Goldman
Franks. the Court Pharmacy, Rhein-
auer IL Co. and L. r. Chazal & Sons
Company.
/ The loving cup was then passed and
happy and good wishes from all to the
club for the following year were ex.
pressed, concluding this pleasant
gathering.

PEACE IN MOVIE CENSORSHIP

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
Who are constantly in direct touch with
me pubic, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as.
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
lions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, if you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y, for sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

CATS CONFINED TO "RANGE''
Chicago Man Reports Success in Novel
Plan for Keeping Pete From
Straying Far AfieId.

Another western idea was adapted
to city uses the other day when q
south-sider, who once rode the range
on the Colorado plateaus, staked out
his cats to keep them at home. The
plan worked fine and now the feline
animals get the air every day at the
ends of tether ropes.
The cat owner found that every
time he opened the cellar door the
pets made break for the open, fire.
quently staying away for days and
returning with hlackened eyes and
scratched hides. He thought of the
tethc1 plan, but the first trial was not
a success, as the cats slipped the
nooses from their necks. He then
evolved a. semi-hobble plan and tied
the heavy string to one of the cats
hind legs, attaching the other end of
the string to stake driven in the
back yard.
This system proved effective and
now every day three of the cats take
their exercise around their tether
stakes.-Chicago Journal.

NOT A PROPER COMPARISON
Ten-Year-old Quickly Seized on Weak
Point in Argument Put Forth
by His Daddy.

Writers have long We'd in their eff
forts to describe properly the tooth
someness, as well as the downright
stupidity, of the ordinary domestic
hen.
Lawrence, age ten, for number of
years mas been able to provide the
most ample concrete evidence of his
due appreciation of the former, but
1t was only recently that the latter
was brought forcibly home to him.
After vainly trying for some time
to drive an .obstreperous hen from
the garden, he called to his father.
II can't get this old hen out!
Ills father remarked that If Cen
eral Pershing had given up that cas-
lily he never would have driven the
Germans out of France.
Lawrence promptly replied: "That
was different. The Germans knew
what General Pershing was trying to
dol"

GROW HIGHLY PRICED COTTON
Virgin Islands Produce Long-stapIe
Variety That Is Almost Extinct
In the United States.

Cotton raising has become one of
the principal industries of the Virgin
islands, Uncle SANS newest territorial
possession, according to Bulletin No. 1,
Sea Island Cotton in st. Croix, of the
Virgin Islands agricultural experiment
station, just issued by the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Sea-island cotton, the much priced,
long-staple variety which has been rem
dered almost extinct in continental
United States by the boil weevil, is
the basis of the Virgin Islands industry.
The area devoted to it, while as yet
small, produced an average yield of
1000 pounds Of seed cotton to the acre

THE uncomfortable fact is
that Europe today does not know
how to use the supplies Of cotton
she already has, even at a price
level substantially lower than
that still obtaining in the United
States.
present indications are that
not more than 100000 900 bales
of American cotton will be re-
quired in 1921, to supply the
worlds mills, this in the face of
the fact that the total Am rican
crop of 1920 was nearly Is, 500,-
600 bales making probable a
world carryover on July 81 next,
of between 5000, 900 and $500, :
900 bales. Should developments
confirm these figures they will
represent almost an entire cotton
crop of itself, and will far sur
pass any surplus of American
cotton which the world has ever
known.
The above is taken from bull
letin issued recently by the Ma
tional Association of Cotton
Manufacturers, which is an or.
ganization of New England spin
ners. Certainly no one would be
more ready to urge the south to
plant more cotton than these
same spinners. The more cotton
there is in the world, the cheap
er they can buy it. But here we
have them admitting that the
carryover may represent al
most an entire crop of itself, f"
without a single bale being rails
ed in 1921.
