County Sunday
School Convention
The Lees\urg Baptist Church
nas invited the annual County
Sunday School Convention for all
Jdenominations to meet with them
on July 19, 1923, according to an
announcement made by the
officers of the Lee County Sunday
School Association. The hospi
tality of thes: people is weli
known and doublless the Sunday
School people from every section
will attend in lirge nunc
bers. The convention will l.e an
all day affair, it is understood,
and dinner will be served on the
grounds at noon hour in picnic
style.
The State Sunday School As
sociation is offering two hanners:
one to the school with the larg- |
‘est number of delegates present
}in proportion to the distance
traveled; and another to the
School haying the largest num
ber of its officers and teachers
present in proportion to the dis
tance traveled, provided 75 per
cent of them are in attendance.'
This will, no doubt, bea big in
centive for most of the churches
to work up alarge attendance.
The Sunday school superin
tendents and the pastors are
asked to take note of this ard
see that a fine attendance is
worked vp from théir schools.
Hall’s Catarrh Medicine
Those who are in a “run down" condi
tion will notice that Catarrh bothers
them much more than when they are in
good health. This fact proves that while
Catarrh is a local disease, it is greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions.
HALL'S CATARRH MEDICINE con
sists of an Ointment which Quickly
Relieve; by local application, and the
Internal Medicine, a Tonic, which asgists
in improving the General Health.

FLORENCE
FLORENCE, signifying flourishing,
can scarcely be separated from
its quaint diminutive Ilora, meaning
flowers, Flora in mythological legend
was the goddess of the flowers, and
the festivals of Flora or Floralia were
celebrated in the first burst of spring.
In later times, the name of KFlorus
was formed from that of the goddess,
and is memorable as that of the proc
urator whose harshness drove the
Jews to their last rebellion. It is be
lieved that the feminine Flora came
from this.
There is a church at Florence of
Saints Flore and Lucilla, but other
wise the first instance of the name is
in Roman-Gothic Spain, where the un
happy daughter of Count Julian was
called by the Spanish diminutive
Florinda, and thus caused the name to
be so much detested that, while Span
ish ballads call her La Cava the
wicked, her Christian name was only
bestowed on dogs.
A Spanish maiden martyred by the
Moors brought Flora into better repute.
It became Flore in France, where it
was adopted as a romantic epithet,
and from there it found its way
to Scotland. In the Gaelic, it is
spelled Florie, as the island heroine
of the ’'4s wrote herself. Florentia
was a natural product, and named a
feminine saint martyred in Diocletian’s
reign in Gaul
The prevalence of the name Ilor
ence, in England, seems to have been
due to so many English girls being
born in the Italian city of that name.
Deeper and dearer honor has Dbeen
given to it by Florence Niglitingale.
Many fictitional heroines have borne
the name and its derivatives. Blanche
fleur, meaning white flower, is one
ot its forms, and was bestowed
on Sir Trystan’s mother. Versions,
particularly romantic, are found with
Ariosto’s two heroines, Fiordespina
(thorn flower) and Fiordilizi (fieur
de lys). |
Florence or Flora, used by the Irish
peasantry, become Finghan or Fincen.
IMlorrie and Flossie and perhaps even
Lora, are purely American diminu
tives.
The carnelian is Florence's talis
maniec gem. Its warm, bright eolor is
said to dispel timidity and give cour
age, vitality and animation. It like
wise brings good luck to the bearer
of the name. To dream of it, how
ever, signifies impending isfortune.
Florence's lucky day is Saturday, and
1 i 8 considered her lucky number,

RING SMALL; WEDDING HALTS
Groom llnsists on Full Ceremony, S¢
Change Is Made.
There was an unusual interruption
to a wedding ceremony in a north
London register oflice when the bride
groom put the ring on his Dbride’s
finger and found it would not go
heyond the knuckle, Ile made several |
attempts to get the ring on, but with
out success.
Saying that the jeweler must have
mistaken the size, the bridegroom
asked the registrar if he could wait
til he got it changed. The ofiicial
safd that the ring did not matter, as
they had both said the contracting
words and were legally married. All
that remained was to sign the register
“Oh, but we must be married prop
erly,” replied the bridegroom. *“I want
my wife to have her ring now and in
your presence.,” The bride agreed, so
leaving her in the oflice, he hurried to
the jeweler's and returned with a
larger ring.
Praises Ukulele Thief,
“] have a notion to give you the ad
dresses of all the ukulele players in
the city. You are almost a public
benefactor.” Thus spoke Judge Tal
ley of New York city when Dennis
Murphy was arraigned for steagling five
ukuleles from a freight car. Murphy
was paroled.
Blames Court for Crime.
Declaring that he thought the courts
would not punish him, Leslie Spraley
was arrested at New York city for
stealing $1,300 from bis employer.
The youth said a Chicago judge re
cently decided that messengers were
not wholly to blame for stealing from
thiqlr employers.

HOT FRUIT DRINKS !
TlH‘} hot fruit drinks, called soups
by the Scandinavian people, are
much more healthful than fruit cock
tails, and better as an appetizer. A
good fruit drink, even at the end of a
neal, is much better than a cup ot‘
coffee, e |
Apple Tea. : |
Wash and cut one good-sized apple
into quarters without paring it, then
slice each quarter into four pileces.
Pour one cupful of boiling water on
the apple and let It set for two hours
where it will be hot, but not eooking,
Add a little sugar, orange or lemon
juice and serve hot.
Drink More Water.
We need o make an effort to drink
rood, fresh water—at least two or
three quarts duily—Dbesides the fluid
taken ut meals. |
PLysicians tell us if we drink enough
water while eating reasonably of the
right kind ef food, we will be relieved
of seciatica, lumbago and constipation
and a score of other ills. If we could
vealize the necessity of plenty of wa
ter, the body being over three-fourths
water in its composition, we would
form the habit of frequent driuk
ing of water. The skin, mucous mem
branes, kidneys and other organs need
‘much water to function properly, and
when it is denied them the body re
bels and we suffer all sorts of ills.
The fruit juices prepared from
crapes, raspberrles, currants and other
fruits are all most satisfying, and ¢
is a wise housewife who provides thers
for her family. l

BEES FOR EVERY MMIKETi
By Use of Artificial Means He
]
Fools the Bees and Reaps
income ¢f $50,000 a Year. 1
Raising and selling queen bees |
bring to 13. B. Auit an annual revenue l
of more than $30,0600, and most of this
is profit. Mr. Ault’s queen bee farm is
near Calallen, Tex., and is fn its
twelfth year of successful operation.
He ships the queen hees all over the
United States and to foreign lands,
including Australia, Japan and coun
tries of Kurope and South America,
fle also ships many colonies of work
ing bhees.
Breeding queen bees is done partly
by artificial means. There would be
no money in the industry if the na
turul hreeding method of the bees
were depended on for queens, it is
explained. It was discovered that the
working bees, like carpenters, per
formed their work according to the
plans and specifications of the archi
tect; so Mr. Ault began building large
cells for queens In the artificial wax
comb foundation. These queen cells
are then filled and produce queens,
according to the foundation specifica
tions.
As a result of this artificlal method
Mr. Ault obtains about 100 queens
from every hive of 2,000 to 3,000 work
ing bees, instead of only one queen.
The bees are fooled, but they do not
seem to mind It
Queen bees vary in price. When
the demand is slow they sell for as
low as $l, but ordinarily they bring
$2.50 to $2.75 each. Just now there I 8
an extraordinarily good demand for
them and the price is on the upward
trend. s

Politicians in -Europe have been
manipulating the other measure—the
money measure—in much the same
way. Some of them in America want
to tamper likewise with the dollar.
Here is about the way it would work
out. Suppose, when the farmer
brought his product to market, the
basket measure was honest enough
and he got a dollar bill for each
bushel. He'd take his dollars home
and save them. Perhaps he planned
to buy some land next his own for &
thousand dollars, and figured that in
a year or so he could make it.
