TEXAS WOMAN
SAYS IT'S WORTH

Suffered Like / Have to APP

clares Mrs. Long.

Statement after statement Is now
being made concerning the remark
able results suffering women are re-
ceiving from Stella Vitae, the pre-
paration that is being used SO exten-
sively in the treatment of Female
Diseases.
One Of the latest of the thousands
of letters received from happy wo-
men who have regained their health
and strength through Stella Vitae, is
from Mrs. r. B. Long, 4919 Ash

'.Stella Vitae is without a doubt
the finest thing on earth for women
who are suffering from Female Dis
eases, and / wouldn't take thous-
and dollars for the good 1t has done
me.
ANY woman who Is suffering like
was can understand how happy ]
feel now. Those terrible pains In my
stomach, backache, and headaches
were almost enough to drive me dis
tracted. Sometimes / would get so
sick from them ! would be right diz-
zy and have to so to bed. I was
constipated nearly all the time, too,
and so nervous that the least little
thing would upset me so that / would
go all to pieces.
II don't know what would have be-
come OF me If 1t hadn't been for
Stella vitae, but that's all over now.

BOTH WRITTEN LAW AND THE
Law or HUMAN KINDNESS
INVOLVED.


3 Tie Leader very much appreciates
communication from q corresponds
ent wsitfen with sincere and laud-
.abic intent; but wo must decline tol
publish It. The article suggests a
continuation Of "whitccapping" in
sl3focs haven among "undesirables'
and proposes "a clause in the consti-
triton that will fully protect our be-
loved mothers and sisters from COM
ing in contact with the degraded
prostitutes and their associates"
AS to the first proposition, the un-
wisdom and dire results OF any sort
Of reckless disregard OF law and con-
stituted authority especially In the
case 3of nobs that take the law into
their own hands and by sheer force
overcome the helpless victim of their
displeasure, are too patent to need
exposition here. Anything taking
the law out Of the hands of those
sworn to enforce it. eventually brings
ruin and fragrant disregard for all
law into the citizenship of vicin-
ity or state.
As to the suggested clause 1t
seems to the writer If instead Of
mothers and sisters fearing contami-
nation from degraded women they
would cultivate the same aversion to-
ward immoral men and pay more at
tentien to the unrecognized mem
bers of society who have no strong
defense against wrong, perhaps, they
would not be subjected to embarrass-
ing company, but would look upon
the fallen as reproach to them rath-
er than as vile things to be handled
with tongs while they pass, under
the illusion they are in no wise re-
sponsible for the fallen about them
and the conditions that dragged them
down.
And, again, our correspondent re-
ferring to the old Jewish law "stone
her with stones that she die: because
she hath wrought folly in Israeli,
smacks strongly Of the double stand
ard and is not available under the
Christian dispensation-''ne in
deed can be-. How much more
guilty is the woman that the man.
anyway?
We fully agree that, as the writer
further says sin is here and will be
until Christ comes again and some
thing must be done to check the evils
of the day."
II our courts ,are not sufficient
for thees things. there will be rest
lessness and discomfort and suppress
sion of a sense Of injustice until it
breaks out in undesirable expression,
as has been proven in many instances
in our State and the South.
Our civil laws are sufficient for
protection and defense They are
made for the law-breaker and need
only strict enforcement to rid our
city Of undesirable derelicts" in the
wisest way, that is by reducing law
lessness to the minimum.
When, the unseen and more power
full laws Of the spirit, kindness, SYM
pathy, steadfastness in the truth,
temperance and self-control,- shall
be demonstrated more and more by
those who profess to emulate the
life of the lowly Nazarene, while
they at the same time insist upon
the officers enforcing the statutes,
then the community will have no,
need to hang its head in shame be-
cause of derelicts.

Chancellor Stricken has held that
jackson has the right to enfroce its
coming ordinances, and that store
house, in one Of the best residential
sections of the city, cannot be erected
as was planned by Mr.. Fitzhugh.
What's the use of ordinances If
hey are not enforced? And II off,
cials fail to uphold the statutes they
are culpable. Many authorities Of
the law act as though they them
selves made the laws and then be-
came ashamed Of them to the extent
that they repudiate them by nom
enforcement. An officer is not re-
sponsible for the laws he swears to
uphold but he is responsible for
carrying on" after he has accepted
office.

Cecil o. Eure, prominent contract
or and capitalist of Hattiesburg,
died at the age of As, from the eff
fects Of stroke of apoplexy. He
had lived in Hattiesburg 80 years. He
owned a saw mill at Ovisburg for
four years, selling out in 1921 for
approximately 100000. He has
been interested in many lumber pro-
jects, dealt heavily in cotton and
owning much valuable delta land, in
addition to his extensive holdings
there, in city property. Mr.. Eure
had just closed a contract for the
erection of large banking building
in Laurel. Among the buildings he
has erected in Hattiesburg, is the Y.
M. C. A., the new high school, the
science hall at the Normal College,
the administration building at the
Woman's College, and others; beside
the fact that he has the city hall and
the building for the Barron Motor
Company partly completed.

Eighth Child nest, Saws Doctor.

"The first child has the worst re-
cord for disease and the eighth and
upward the BEST This is the re-
suit Of exhaustive inquiry made by
DR.. r. H. vercoe of London, among
the school children of Essex.
Eighth children" he says, "are
inferior to none and superior to The
eldest in small families.
In intelligence. weight, height and
other qualities the differences are
sEght, but the following is noted:-.
Intelligence rises slightly from the
first child to the. third then drops
to the sixth and rises again to the
eighth child.
The tallest and heaviest children
are the last born, while the shortest
and lightest are the second and sixth.
The eldest child. as rule has the
lightest colored eye, while the eighth
has the darkest. In defects Of vision
the first and second children are the
worst, while the third child comes
out best. In general defects the first
