SOUTHERN BANKS MUST
HELP.
Thf bijr banking renters are
gladly taking advantage of
government In order to finance
.the businaM of this country,
during the Kuropcan war.
They are performing a duty to
their communities and to the
nation at large. Conditions
are even sounder and more
encouraging In anialler cities
and in the South than in the
big business centers.
The people of the South
look to their hanks to help
market the crops and to fi
nance the business of the
South. Southern hanks
should take advantage of the
new currency law they
should join the other banks of
the country—th<*y must se
cure for the South the curren
cy needed to market the crops
and to finance the business of
♦he South. If they do this,
the South will boom ami pros
per as never before. If they
fail to do thia, other sections
will he prosperous while the
business interests of the South
halt and lag behind.
The government offers an
abundance of money to South
ern banks on easy terms to
handle the crops. Will the
Southern hanks avail them
selves of the government’s of
fer?
FARMERS ATTENTION 1
Food prices are soaring and
will go higher in thia country
The longer the war lasts the
higher these prices will go.
The United States is going to
be called upon not only to feed
its own people, out seven or
more nations will draw largely
upon America for food sup
plies, for clothing of all kinds,
while the war lasts.
Farmers, must feed them
selves. especially in the South,
while this condition lasts.
Better begin now, to increase
home food supplies. Prepare
now to live at home.
Less acreage next year in
cotton, more in corn and oats
and wheat and peas and pota
toes. The cost of living is go
ing up. Prepnre to fight it by
raising home supplies. You
can sell the surplus at a high
price next year.
Increase your supply of
hogs and cattle. Raise more
chickens. Plan to sow early
wheat and oats. Get ready
for a Fall and Winter Garden.
Double the corn crop. Living
is going up and the South
must feed itself and help to
feed the world.

The cotton crc»p !* a far greater

enormous amount of money to flnanc*

Those that oppose the valorization
p’an contend that it is contrary to
the* theor\ of our government to go
Into commercial transactions of any
description and that It is the duty o'
the hsnks to take care of the cotton
situation And that If the government
did thus and so for cotton. ha\ ing es

"'nuid have to do the same for oth*r
products such ss copper, wheat, corr.

a complex i i hlem.
The fact remains, nevertheless the
' American cotton is the one produc

TA/ POU’S REBELLION
Tai-Pou Wrung His glands and Two Tears Ran Down
His Flat, Yellow Cheeks. For Three Days He Did Not
Come Near the Palace, But in the Evening of the Third
Day a Messenger Brought the Emperor the Heads of the
Children in a Silk Bag"
Whsn Tsi - Pou had bow ed his head
eleven times and prostrated himself
fourteen times before the emperor as
praorlbed by law and custom and
thereupon In accordance with his
privilege as prime minister had sat
down on the silk cushion on the low
est step of the throne. Emperor Ho-
Hei said to him:
"Listen. Tai-Pou! I have had \
dream. Last night the God of Sus
picion came to me. I could see quite
plainly his double fsv*e snd his two
queues and he whispered into my etra
these words: "Your Minister Tai-Pou

In China He Is ever thinking of

that be loves your sacred person as

quite sure there is nothing he love*
higher still? If 1 were you 1 would
put hia love to s test to find out the
strength of it.” Thus spoke the god
What do you think of his words, oh
Tat Pou?
\ smile came into Tal-Pou's face.
Hia entire face from the slanting eyes
to the crocked mouth expressed so
touch Joy that the emperor ought to
have felt satisfied. Nevertheless, he
still remembered what the voice had
uhiapt'red into his ears during th.«
night, while Tai-Pou repiltd;

the emperor's mind. Ho-Hei grew
melancholy and when Tai-Pou one
day a#kc<| him the cause of his saari
ness, h# replied:
"Oh Tai-Pou! My nightly visitor
has appeared before me again and

given me of your devotion he laughed
and said: "Oh. simple minded emper

see how greatly his love of you falls
abort of what it ought to be."
Tai-Pou sighed, emptied his cup of
fragrant tea and withdrew without a
word, but two days later he threw
the head of the beautiful Kiang-St at
the emperors feet.
Said the emperor to Tai-Pou hjs
minister ‘ Again last night the gol

feeble like that bf a man dying: "Tal-
Pou is stronger than I," he whispered.
"He hss conquered me. No sovereign

minister your servant, hut to convince
me fully you must demand one more

tears ran down his flat yellow cheeks

with wonderful fishes. There were
fishes looking like fire, ethers resem

Emperor Ho-Hes, who had waited
only three days for the heads of Tai

times before Tai-Pou fulfilled his la

The invention is a species of ele

the coffin is placed above' the grave.
Placed on a stretcher the coffin slow
