RICE IN ARKANSAS.
Coming to Be One of the Most lm
portent of Southern Cereals.
of all the records of wonderful prog
ress made in the south in the last two
decades, says a writer In Kimball's
Unity Furtuer, none Is more Interest
ing or more indicative of growth along
right lines than that of successful de
velopment In the riceOelds of eastern
Arkansas.
Along the cotton belt route In the
(•rand prairie and lesser contiguous
prairies of Arkansas today are the vis
ibl»* evidences of a new' prosperity
more marvelous and more substantial
tliau any one who knew conditions
there six years ago could have dreamt
♦si of as being possible. This has been
nchiexed neither by miracle nor mere
chance, it lias been brought about by
tin* intelligent use and employment of
the ordinary means at hand. No one
lias ever charged that in the distribu
tion of so called natural advantages
Arkansas was accorded more than her
share. Many have voiced the belief
that In the general allotment Arkansas
"as forgotten, in the light of recent
developments in that state, as else

i supply. Fanners who lia'e attempted
! to raise it have started «• it with this
{ knowledge and in facing the pro I detu
squarely have solved it. A rice farm
equipped with wells with a sulllcient
Mow to Mood tlie ricefields becomes im
mediately a high class corn, truck,
fruit and stock farm. Tldnk wlut it
means to have under absolute control
au unceasing supply of pure water.
Trenches carry it by gravitation to
any portion of the land. With it n
corn crop is helped over a temporary
drought. An occasional wetting in
sures a splendid return from the truck
patch, and with water always at hand
cows almost double the quantity and
more than double the quality of milk
produced.
Hut nil these are really secondary
considerations with tin* Arkansas rice
farmer. He lias ids eye on the main
chance. It is to raise rice, which is
coming to be one of the most impor
tant of southern cereals.

FINANCIAL FILOSOPHY
“NUMBERS ELIMINATE CHANCE
l lie Biwiness Corporation was a (levies of the Romans.
The original idea came from Julius Caesar, and was suggested
by the unrertaintly of Human Life. It was an insurance
against the dissolution of a project in case of death. The In
tent was to provide for the continuance and perpetuity of en
terprises which probably no man could < arry out during his
lifetime. I In* llrst. application of the corporation was for hu'l
ding Water Systcrms and laying out Roadways. Hence, His
tory gives the first corporation ns being a PUBLIC SERVICE
CORPORATION."
Since the days of the great Caesar the Corporation prin
cipal has boon successfully applied to most all branches of
(oinnieree and Industry,but the Public Service Corporation
continues to rank first. The securities of Public Service Cor
pontions are considered the most profitable Investment that
can be made with ABSOLUTE SAFETY. Experienced Finan
ciers. those having practical knowledge of Investments, rate
the securities of Public Service Corporations as being the most
profitable of all SAFE INVESTMENTS.
Wc would like to tell you about a Public Service Corpora
tion here at. home. One whose future is unusually bright and
whose securities ofTor an exceptionally attractive Investment.
It's Safe, too! ABSOLUTELY SAFE! Let us tell you about It!

To be socially correct all uote |>a|>ei
must be stamped at the top either
with address and monogram or only
with one. In these days of frequent
change of resldeuce m woman does not
always have hii address die; yet.
though It Is an expense, It is a finish
to her stationery which Is most desir
able uud therefore to be tried for. If
only one thing Is to be put on paper
the address Is preferred to the mono
gram on the theory that the former
must be made to order, while the lat
ter muy he had ready made. For the
street and number plain block letters
arc the best, and unless one lives In a
large city whose street names are so
well known as<i mined lately to be Iden
tified with the<place the name of the
town must also be stamped.
In the placing of this adornment
fashion has recently made a change,
and one Is more apt on the new sta
tionery to see It between the middle
nml the loft corner than directly In
the middle, as was recently the case.
When the monogram Is used with It
the latter is put In the left corner, the
address .going in the right.
When the name of the town is added
to the street the former is now in
dented. Quite lately the town name
went directly under the street, “cen
tered.” bringing it in the middle of the
line above. Now It has the same rela
tion to tho top line that the address
has on an envelope, nnd this placing
marks nD the new dies.
If onlyia monogrnm alone or one ini
tial U to*be stamped It goes In the up
per left corner, and the die inny he as
fancy ns one chooses.
Th* Girl Who Is Easy.
A girl who looks on while her friend
who Is known ns “easy” Is apparently
having a glorious time wonders wheth
er good breeding is not old fashioned.
Hut It Is not the girl who cares little
how she talks, where she goes ttnchap
eroned or how free and easy she per
mits her man friends to he who wins
out in the end.
How often does t he quiet little mouse
of a girl, whom the other girls call n
Prude or stick, take the catch of the
season anil get invitations that her
easier friends want.
It is hard in this age to have too
high n standard of self respect. I’er
Blitted liberties are so much greater
than a generation sign ilint one need*
watchfulness not to overstep the line
Into liberty.
A girl nerd not be a prude because
she does not believe in fa minorities of
speech or touch. When once she has
made her position and standards clear
she can have just as good n time and
far more respect than her friend who
is "easy.”
because a girl I* particular It does
not follow she must be slow, tip <>11 a
sense of ftitt. readiness to be amused
by everything that comes along and a
tongue that doesn’t backbite, and a
nice girl need never lack attention be
cause she does not believe In always
sitting in corners and frowns upon du
blous Jokes.
College Etiquette.
A college girl must, of course, first of
nil develop her mind as far as possible,
but this does not mean that she must
or may forget the rules of etiquette
laid down for all well bred girls,
whether at home, at college, in busi
ness or lu the social world.
She must talk In low tones. She must
be courteous to all around her. respect
ful to those who are older and consid
erate of those who are beneath her so
cially. She must learn to converse in
an iuterestJng manner without assert
ing her own opinions or trying In any
way to show a superior knowledge,
even upon subjects which she has
made her special study.
She must learn to act the part of
the graceful, courteous and Interesting
hostess and also the chnrming and
well read guest. At all times she must
bo the well bred, dignified, courteous
ns well as Interesting and clever col
lege girl.
In the social world there is a tacit
understanding that we shall all be
agreeable to one another, always put
ting the attractive things of life on
the outside arid keeping our private
woes to ourselves.
This Is a rule that none can afford to
overlook—old or young, society girl,
college girl or bttsIuess girl.
Table Etiquette.
The little difference between lifting
ft dish nnd shoving It along makes
the big difference between a sloven
and the punctilious observer of good
manners at the tuble and lias an effect
In marring the harmony of the table,
whereby In congenlalness and table en
joyment nil are best conserved.
flneklng the fingers or teeth, picking
the teeth at the table before all are
done eating, gazing about the table
while drinking, tipping back the chair
on two legs, taking any of the dessert,
ns fruit, nuts or sweetmeats, away
from the table, Is the worst possible
form.
A Man's Arm.
Nowadays It Is not the enstom for a
woman to lean upon the arm of the
man who Is walking beside her during
the daytime, and she seldom accepts
this support after nightfall unle** she
is Infirm or elderly or the man Is her
fiance or husband.
Suffering becomes beautiful when
one bears great calamities with cheer
fulness, not through Insensibility but
through greatness of mind -Aristotle
