The food demonstration booths
that they have in the different
department stores are wonderful.
II 1t wasn't for these booths a lot
Of people would go hungry.
IL man can discover what
store Is giving away samples Of
food then all he has TO worry
about Is finding place 10 sleep.
If the town has enough stores,
a guy can start with soup and end
up with pudding.
He may have to walk three or
four blocks between courses, but
walking gives him a better appe-
tite for more samples.
Most demonstrators don't mind
giving you one or two portions OF
their new product. but they don't
like you to bring guests along.
One nervy guy gave a luncheon
to his friends this way.
He would have taken them TO
dinner but the department stores
all closed at $50.
But he was a wonderful host and
never missed a store that was
giving anything away free.
One bird sued the department
store because somebody cOpped his
Oyercoat. The coat wasn't worth
much, but the pockets were filled
with samples.
He got even with them by never
eating there again.
These food demonstrators are
funny; they look at you as though
you had put three or four samples

War Is Religious.
The Orange Protestants. in their
turn, declare that warfare started
when nearly a hundred Sim Fein

fast two years ago. They indig,
nantly deny that there ever has
been any organized Orange antag,
onism to the Roman Catholics.
The Catholic answer Is that over
600 casualties have occurred In their

trouble started. Did the /. B. A."

BIacksnakes Good for Golf.

Blacksnakes seeking a comfortable
home, rent and taxes free, are invited
to the golf links of the Coatesvllle
County club, in Coatesville, Pa. Along
the sides of the course underbrush has
been permitted to grow thick, and
tempting rock piles with full southern
exposures have been placed to lure
the snakes from adjacent lands. An
educational campaign has been lnaug-
urated among golfers with an aversion
to reptiles in order that there may
be no repetition of the deaths by VIC
lence which came to two OF the or
ganization's pets. Champions of the
blacksnake declare that it is the most
efficient natural enemy of the ground
mole, which admittedly is the natural
enemy of golf green's. Not only does
the snake go right into the mole's Dor
ings and discourage that animals oper-
ations, but it is alleged to kill off rat
tiers and copperheads. 1t is harmless
to mankind, and is unlikely to appear
suddenly to disconcert a player about
to putt, for it works at night.-Ex-

IMPORT BEADS BY BILLIONS
Demand for Those Ornaments by the
Women Of the unlted States
Seems Unsuitable.

Ballots and beads must belong to-
Rether In the mind Of the modern wom-
an. At any rate, ten strings of beads
are worn today when one was worn
before the war and before the vote.
Beads by the billions are being Inn
ported. This years record promises
to run far ahead of last years, and
last years record was worth glance.
To make any comment upon the adj
vanced and emancipated woman's In
terest in the ornament that is usually
set down as a South sea savage's no.
ton of an all-but-complete costume Is
quite unnecessary. The figures speak
for themselves.
From central Europe from France,
from the shores of the entire Mediter-
ranean, from all Judea, from the three
great countries of the Far East, the
making Of beads for the United States
is a big business, declares New York
Sun writer. Not satisfied with the
quantity that can be turned out with
everybody working at the JOB OF dec
Grating the dresses and the hats and
the shoes of millions of American Wom-
en-. the demand for something differ
ent has made the best dealers set the
very South sea savage to scraping up
the seashells from the shores or lonely
isles that are all but lost on any
average map.
To the national bill for tire ma
terials could be added the cost OF all
imported cigarettes and then the total
would be $35,000,000 short of meeting
the total outlay for feminine orna-
ments. In spite of the increase In
the amount of coffee imported, the cup
that cheers America at breakfast time
costs far less than the beads that
women wear. About $66,OO0,OOO less.
The comedy continues throughout the
whole list of life's lesser luxurles.

Death of Mrs, Rhoda Russell.

The death of Mrs. Rhoda Russell, !
one of the oldest of the pioneer res
idents of the county, occurred at her
home in District Number Six, five
miles west of Troy, Sunday morning,
November 5, 1922, at 4:30 o'clock.
Mrs. Russell's' age was 81 years,
three months and five days. She was
born and reared in the country close
to Louisville, Ky. She was Miss
Yates and was married in Kentucky
to Thomas Russell.
The family moved to Obion County
in 1856 and in 1857 located on the
farm, where Mrs. Russell has lived
continuously.
There were eight children, four
of whom survive as follows: Mrs. Lot
tic Yarbrough, OF Jonesboro, Ark,
Miss Minerva Russell, who lived with
her mother, Mr.. Thomas Russell and
family, who were also located with
Mrs. Russell, and ]. NJ. Russell, of
this city.
Mrs. Russell was a member of the
Missionary Baptist Church. She be-
came member of the church at
Mount Moriah soon after coming to
| this country.
Five years ago Mrs. Russell sus-
| tai,,od eop,o in i,rioc froy,, n foII frC,,o
which she never recovered. She be-
came blind and gradually failed in
strength until the end came, passing
out quietly and without a struggle.
In one respect, however, her longevi-
ty was very remarkable. She re-
tanned her mental activity almost in
its pristine vigor. She lived with
the times, taking an active interest
in her neighbors and all that took
place in the neighborhood. Her
memory was good even to the last,
and but for blindness she would have
kept in touch with all of the commu-
nifty affairs.
1t is thus that good woman has
lived in the grace of God, the love
of her children and the esteem OF
her people. Her passing ends mem
orable pilgrimage and the community
pays tribute on this solemn occasion
Services were conducted at Mount
Moriah Church by Rev. w. B. Gun
ming ham, and Mr.. Thos. Inman, a
good friend and neighbor, paid q
worthy tribute to Mrs Russell The
remains were Inferred 1t Mount Mo
riah Cemetery.

Seeds as Source of Wealth.

Although there are a number of pro-
ductive sources of vegetable oils used
in the arts and in the manufacture of
food products, Investigations by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture indicate that valuable edible oils
may be obtained in paying quantities
from waste products and from seeds,
such as the sunflower, not yet grown
to any great extent in this country.
At the present time the principal
sources of vegetable oils are flaxseed,
cottonseed, soy beans, corn germs,
peanuts, palm, rape seed, tungnuts,
mustard seed, sesame castor beans
and olives.

OIL From Palm Tree.

Cohune nut OIL which is obtained
from the fruit of a variety Of palm
tree that grows in Central and South
America has been examined by the
Department of Agriculture. 1t re-
sembles coconut oil and can replace 1t
for many purposes. The supply OF
these nuts Is almost unlimited and
several firms are now attempting to
establish the manufacture of the oil on
a commercial basis.
Although during the war there was
a scarcity of fats and oils in some
countries, it seems that there are plen-
ty of sources from which to obtain
them in this country and many other
parts of the world.

"T0 EVERY MAN HIS GHOST"
Egyptians Firmly Believe That Each
Individual is Accompanied by
shadowy Counterpart.

"The Egyptians believe, even to
this day, that every man has a ghost"
says Prof. George A. Reisner, recent
ly returned from Egypt with the Har-
ward expedition.
Statues of several thousand years
ago picture the Egyptian man with
his ghost. But the woman wasn't
considered important enough to have
one. She was the mans wife. and
that was considered sufficient honor
for her.
1.-THE men took very good care of
their ghosts. At regular intervals
they went to the room where the ghost
was supposed to live and placed food
offerings there for him to eat. These
consisted Of bread onions and beer.
1t was necessary to repeat some mag
ic phrases which had the effect of
changing the physical nature of the
food so that it would be fit for con-
sumption by spiritual being.
"When a man died he became iden-
titled with his ghost On the inside
of the Egyptians coffin a black, zig.
gag line was traced to represent the
course which the deceased must take
through the underworld. At each turn
Of the path was a warning of the dan
ger to be looked for at that particular
point and directions for avoiding it."
