"Our women nro realizing as nover
before tho power of organization. They
nro showing better Judgment working
for larger results; they havo caught
tho vision of service. Playing Its part
In all tho forces of human endeavor
mutuality and hclfulness havo stamped
themselves. For tlieso bodies of ours
to bo out of harmony means disease
and death. Oh a lack of human mu-
tuality means moro!
"Hero wo havo come as tho Jewish
peoplo came centuries ago to Jerusa-
lem with their offerings to celebrate
tho harvest. Instead of dipping a gold-
en pitcher In tho pool of Slloam for
tho altar we nro come to draw water
of Inspiration from tho well of our
different experiences.
"In somo states the ballot has come
to our women. Wo hopo the day may
soon dnwn when all of us may enjoy
this privilege Jane Addams says: 'If
woman should fulfill her traditional
responsibility to her own children Bhe
must bring herself to tho uso of tho
ballot that latest Implement for self-
government.' I hellevo In woman suf-
frage becauso women are as Integral a
part of tho commonwealth as man
and havo equal social rights. Dut sis-
ters what wo need Is to work hard
and train ourselves to bo fully pre-
pared to uso this prlvilego when It
comes to us.
"Tho temperance question Is of vital
Importance to us. Sisters let us work
with renewed energy to rid tho land of
that which Is doing bo much to drag
us down as a race. March 13 1913

Threo hundred Negro children aro
born dally and bo much depends on
tho child culture of today."

The vast nroa of rich lands In Texas
her splendid climate her generous
laws and her warm-hearted citizens
constitute a firm baso upon which will
bo erected from year to year a com-
monwealth of unprecedented prosper-
ity. Tho Instruction given In her agri-
cultural colleges nnd tho research
work in hor experiment stations will
bo carried to the people of tho rural
districts. Already tho work of organi-
zation haB begun and instruction and
demonstration In agrlculturo and homo
economics in conformity with tho pro-
visions of tho Smith-Lover bill will
lnaugurato tho work of popular edu-
cation of tho working farmer. Surely
the good peoplo of Texas must sco an
lmmedlato and urgent need for this
work among tho people "furthest
down." All the arguments In favor
of extension work among any peoplo
nnywhoro apply with greater emphasis
to tho Negro farmer. Wade C. Rol-

Boycott on Veal.
A country boy was leaving hoTno
to mako a living nnd probably &
natno for himself. His father and
mother had given him somo raonoy
and a great deal of advlco. Ho had
a situation In a distant city and as
ho had never taken kindly to farm
work It looked llko a good opportun-
ity for him.
"Hut thero's ono thing I wantcr say
ter ye." tho old man said as ho hand-
ed tho boy his luggago out of the
wagon at tho station "and I want you
to understand that I say It In all kind-
ness. You aro going Into tho world
with pretty good prospects."
"Yes. father."
"And at tho samo tlmo you'ro to
movo Into tho neighborhood of tho
wicked nnd ungodly where your foot's
llablo to slip any minute."
"Yes father."
"W-a-a-1 what I wantcr say Is Just
this: 'Tho farm's goln' to stay right
here whero you can always turn to
It; but times has been mighty hard
lately and tho farm nover was very
productive.' "
"I know It father."
"So you might as well understand
that If you como back becauso you
want to sco tho folks ngaln you'll get
your wish but If you como back
lookln' for tho fatted calf you'll bo
likely to get disappointed. So good-
by son."

When peoplo rcallzo the Injurious
effects of coffco and tho chango In
health that Postum can bring they aro
usually glad to lend their testimony
(or tho benefit of others.
"My mother slnco her early child-
hood was an Inveterate coffco drlnkor
had been troubled with her heart for a
number of years and complained ot
that 'weak all over' feeling and Bick
stomach.
"Somo tlmo ago I was making a
visit to a distant part of tho country
and took dinner with ono of tho
merchants of tho place. I noticed a
somewhat unusual flavour of tho 'cof-
fee' and asked him concerning It. Ho
replied that It was Postum.
"I was so pleased with it that after
tho meal was over I bought a pac'tago
to carry homo with mo and had wlfo
preparo Lome for tho noxt meal. The
whole family wero so well pleased
with It that we discontinued coffeo and
used Postum entirely.
"I had really been at times very
cnxlous concerning my mother's con-
dition but wo noticed that after using
Postum for a short tlmo she felt so
much better than sho did prior to Its
uso and had little troublo with her
heart and no sick stomach; that tho
headaches woro not so frequent and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was well and
hearty.
"I know Postum has benefited my-
solf and tho other morabers of tho fam-
ily but not In so marked a degreo as
In tho case of my mother as sho was a
victim of long standing." Namo glvea
by Postum Co. Battlo Creok Mich.
Postum comes In two forms:
Regular Postum must bo well
boiled. 15c nnd 25c packages.
Inetant Postum Is a soluble row
der. A timspoonful dissolves quickly
in a cup of hot wator and with cream
and sugar makes a delicious bever-
ago Instantly. 30c and 50c tins.
Tho cost per cup of both kinds Is
about tho same.
