Liquor doesn't drown troubles,
it floats them.
You may not love him, but you
can’t really hate a fat man.
"The bear walks like a man,” can
also fight like the devil.
There is only one business that
it does'nt pay to advertise and that
is counterfeiting.
S U . . -
Judging by what they bring back
some must go fishing just to amuse
the fish. _
The trouble with the Mexicans
is that they had rather Execute
each other than to execute their
laws. _
The submarine has played a more
important part so far, than the air
ship, thereby demonstrating the ad
vantage sometimes to be attained
by keeping out of the spotlight.
Last week arrangements were
made for shipping cotton to Ger
many and Austria which have re
ceived none since the war began,
and these two countries will take
<f5,OQO bales every month, and in
view the fact that no planter is
to put in but half a crop next year.
doUon will soon be at a normal
price again. Corn will pay just as
well as high priced cotton if it is
fed to hogs and made into good
hams and bacon at 20 and 25
cents per pound. Nothing pays
better. The South can raise five
t'mes as much pork and beef as it
is doing, and it should turn its at
tention to this matter with greater
earnestness.
INAUGURATION Of NEW CURRENCY SUSTEM.
On November 16, the new cur
rency system will be put into effect
all over the country. The 12
regional government controlled
banks will begin business as banks
for bankers. This system contains
the best and most valuable feat
ures to be found in the banking
systems of the entire world, and it
will be the beginning of the great
est era of prosperity ever known,
and it will be an era that no panics
will be able to puncture. For in
stance, suppose a bank loans
$100,000 to the business men of a
community, and more business men
wanted another $75,000 which
the bank could not spare. Under
the old or present system the last
set of men would go without the
loan, and so business and industry
w)uld suffer accordingly, in that
t >wn or county. Under the new
system, the local bank would de
posit the securities it received as 1
collateral for the first loan, with
the Government Regional bank
a d borrow the $75,000 therefrom
at about 4 per cent then lend it out
at about 5 per cent. So under this
system no legitimate industry can
ever suffer for want of money, and
financial panics will be impossible.
Daily Thought.
"With a little more patience and a
little less temper, a gentler and wiser
nudhod might be found In almost
eri;ry case, and the knot that we cot
by some fine, heady quarrel scene In
private life or In publio affairs, by
some denunciatory act against what
we are pleased to call our neighbor's
viess, might yet have been woven by
tho band of sympathy.—8tevensoB.

Compliments With a Sting.
Achille Duchene, the French archi
tect, who has come to America to
build a palace on the 10,000-acra Cal
ifornia estate of Mrs. Frank Carolan,
the Pullman heiress, praised in Chi
cago the American skyscraper.
“Your skyscrapers no longer look
like cardboard,” he said. “The Metro
politan Tower and the Woolworth
building in New York are beautiful
examples of architecture and you
have other skyscraper buildings of
equal loveliness and gradeur.
"I can praise the American sky
scraper unreservedly without any of
that sting in the tail of my praise
which is common in foreign discussion
of America art, and which reminds
one of the two ladies at tea.
“Two ladies met at the Ritz.
“ 'Why, my dear,’ said the first lady,
‘how nice your fox furs look. One
would almost think they were new.’
"The other lady smiled and answer
ed:
“ 'Oh, thank you! And your Persian
lamb stole, too, looks just as good as
it did years and years agk.’ ”
Adopting One’s Parents.
If a woman will adopt, parents are
the best material for the purpose.
They will not be insubordinate; from
the dayB when from the vantage of
my high chair I clamored sharply with
my spoon for attention, and received
it, have they not been carefully
trained in the docility befitting all
good American parents? Nor, being
in their safe and sober sixties, are
they likely to blossom into naughti
ness, large or small, so that the folk
will shoot out their lorgnettes at me.
sneering, "Pray is this the best you
can do in the way of Imparting a
bringing-up?”—And how much better
than an adopted husband are an
adopted father and mother! They will
not go about tapping cigar ashes over
my maindenly prejudices; they will
tread gingerly and not make a horrid
mess of my very best emotions. Yes;
to all ladies about to adopt, I recom
mend parents.—From the Atlantic.

What Kind Do
You Use?
Cream of Tartar, the chief ingredient of Dr. Price’s
Cream Baking Powder is a product of ripe grapes. It
is pure and healthful beyond question.
Alum is the chief ingredient of many of the sub
stitutes offered in place of Dr. Price’s Cream Baking
Powder. Alum is a mineral acid, declared by physi
cians and chemists to have an injurious effect when
used in the preparation of food.
No baking powders containing alum are permitted
to be sold in England, France or Germany. To avoid
alum and be sure of wholesome, home-baked food,
read the label carefully and use only
