won for her many lasting friends
who wish her much happiness in

Mr. Powell has until recently

Wisdom Whispers,
The wise woman knows how to
t ook pleasant win n she iscaught in
r in act of selfishness.
When a man has reached the
^otli life-mark he realizes how lit
v tie he really docs know.
Most women are so constituted
‘that the older .they grow the youn¬
ger they appear.
Men are not sensitive on the age
> questiou so far as the other fellow
is concerned.
The man who agrees with yho
3eems so tnnch more intelligent
than the man who does not.
Women like to feel that men
regard it as a favor to be present, d
• to them.
A man may be a lion at a sum

Covington, Ga.
Dear Sir: SlmfFert Hardware Co,
Hickory N C, bought a car-load
of paint; after selling it a few
months, found-out it measured
seven pints a “gallon y 1
Returned it to the maker and
credited customers with what they
had lost from short measure.
What do you think of a short
measure paint? Don’t you think
it half white-wash? Half the
paitns are part white-wash.
Goby the name: Devoe lead
and-zine. No whiting or clay in
that; full-measure besides. A
gallon Devoe i§ worth two of
whitewash paint.
Yours truly,

How to make the South Rich
'I lie South is richer t.ow and
more prosperous than at snv oth¬
er time m her history With cot¬
ton at 10 cents ,4 pound she would
in a le v years b the wealthiest
section of the country if there
1 was no such thing as gambling in
cotton. Her wealth would be
more evenly distributed than that
of any other section because the
greater part of it would be in the
hands of the farmers and the
country storekeepers. Gambling
in cotton however drains her
wealth. All over the cotton states
there are agencies for dealing in
cotton futures. There is/ilenty of
evidence that they are well patron¬
ized and that they reap a rich har¬
vest. Many millions of dollars
annually go to enrich cotton fu¬
ture brokers and fi 1 i the pockets
of the big cotton speculators in
New York.
I here aro probably ten times as
many banks in the South now as
there were a score of years ago and
tliey have almost enough money
to move the cjtton crop. Only a
little ba3 to be borrowed from
New \ork, and that at the begin¬
ning of the season. In two or
three years more the South will
not have to borrow from New !
\ork.at the beginning of the cot¬
ton season or ut any other time,
She wouldn’t have to do that now
if her people hadn’t wasted so
much gambling in cotton futures.
It is a pity they cannot see there
is n °Uiing in cotton gambling for
them. Their efforts to g*t rich
quick in that way haven’t been
successful and never will be. The
way for them to get rich—the
sure way—is to invest their mon
ey at home. The resources of the
South are only beginning to be
developed. had
