HINDU WOMEN AMAZING.

The feminist movement among
the Hindus is less organized and less
advanced than in any other country,
but there are many evidences that it
is progressing rapidly. Many infu-
entail Hindus and Mohammedans
have taken up the cause and are
making it a part of their program
of national liberties. The men who
went into the war saw women NOV
ing about freely in France, and
when they returned they brought
back new ideas. The women during
their absence had answered the call
to arms-they had entered the work
shops and hospitals. The war thus
enlarged their outlook on life.

SUBSTITUTE FOR TEA.

The active principle of tea is
"theine." That of coffee is caffeine.
But caffeine and theme are exactly
the same thing.
This agreeably stimulating aka
loid is found in other plants, one Of
which grows wild and plentifully in
the South Atlantic states, where it
is called syaupon," or sometimes
"Christmas-berry tree"
The Indians brewed a beverage
from the leaves of the yaupon long
before the first white man landed on
this continent; and during the Civil
war it was used as substitute for
tea by people in the South.
The government plant bureau is
experimenting with it, in the belief
that the leaves, when properly cured
after the manner of tea, will furnish
a palatable cup at much less cost.

EVERY BOOK EVER WRITTEN
Index Undertaken by Brussels Ii
brary Has Been Found Too
Great a Task

The international Institute OF
photography, which is housed in the
Palais Mondial at Brussels, was adj
versely criticized at the meeting Of
the British Library association at
Manchester.
The institute aims to provide a
complete classification index Of all
the books that were ever written.
Since there are at present but r.
100000 cards, it is apparent that
the institute is at present far from
achieving its ambitious purpose.
The cards are stored in four
ranks Of card cabinets, running from
end to end of a room 80 feet long.
They are classified according to the
Dewey system, somewhat elaborated,
and index both author and subject,
SO that far less than 12,000,000
books are represented by the cards
themselves.
A Manchester librarian criticizes
the institute as being too ambitious
to succeed, and suggests that, if it
is to be genuinely useful, it ought
to be supported by all the nations
rather than by the Belgian govern
ment alone, as at present. If there
is to be any international biblio-
graphical institution Of the kind, he
fayors locating it at Washington,

MILLIONS OF ,EM.

A new record for shipments Of
watermelons was established this
year, according to figures announced
by the bureau of markets of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. Shipments exceeded a.
600 cars, surprising last years rec
ord by 5000 cars.
From the Florida-Georgia- South
Carolina melon section shipments
amounted to $4,000 cars. Three
other states, Texas, California and
Missouri, shipped 5000 to 5000
cars each; Alabama and North
Carolina shipped more than 1000
each; Arkansas, Indiana, Oklahoma,
400 to 700 each; and IA other states
in smaller amounts.
In the last three years there has
been notable increase in melon
production Nearly 10000 acres
were planted in Texas, compared
with $4,000 in Georgia, the leading
state, but shipments from Texas
were greatly reduced by unfavorable
weather. In most other sections con-
ditions were favorable. Taking the
watermelon sections as whole,
there was greater production from
an acreage about equal to that of
1920.

It Can Be Done In Nezperce.
The back aches at times with a
dull indescribable feeling, making

to rub or apply a plaster to the back
if the kidneys are weak. You can

Several Franklin mothers were

cover any genius in her three-year-
old son, Robert, until recently
Robert came running in from play
and said:

Yes said mother, and they hur-

saw good-sized fishing worm.
"Now," said the mother proudly
to the other mothers, Il have at last

"Why, what?" they hesitatingly
asked.

beamingly, ''that he has in him the

BISHOPVII4LE
Anril Fool PARTY


Mrs. Geo. Martin, assisted by her
daughter, Mrs. Alden Wells, and
Miss Lena Davis, entertained the
County club with an April Fool
party last Saturday afternoon. The
house was decorated in a rather
surprising manner and in a way to
trip the feet of the unwary and
many April fool jokes led to much
merriment. The members Of the
club came masquerading in queer
and old fashioned costumes, odd
relics of long ago. An April Fool
box of chocolate coated onion sets
was awarded jointly to the two,
who, in the opinion of the judges,
were conceded to appear as the big
gest fools. The winners of this
contest were Mrs. Chas Wilson of
Trimble and Mrs. VIM. Hoon of
Bishopville.
An elaborate lunch was served
by the hostess to which all did am
pie justice. Following which the
regular business meeting was held.
Thirteen members and four visitors
were present.

from the Church of Christ S. s., of
Glouster to attend S. S. at the
Athens Church of Christ last Sun
day. IA autos left the church at
