THE JEWS GOING BACK TO PALESTINE That the Jews will again occupy Palestine and that it will be once ... *u.. u 41 t as i niuit* iiiv iiuuic iiiai ?iueiy siuiiviai i nation seems to be fulfilled. This will be in accordance with biblical prophecy and will be another evidence of the inspiration of the scriptures. One of the latest and most significant features of the resoration of the Jews to the Holy Land is the resolution introduced in the United States Senate by Senator Lodge that was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. The resolution is to the etTect that the United States favors the establishment in Palestine of the National Home for the Jewish people and that the holy places and religious buildings and sites in Palestine shall he adequately protected. A NEW FARM LOAN BILL A bill has been introduced in Congress that is intended to assist farmers in getting loans. Our great ..rouble with the farm loan banks has been the delay and red tape that delays the proces sof getting loans. Farmers, of course, when they apply for loans need the money and need it as soon as it can possibly he secured The bill referred to creates a farmers finance corporation for the purpose of certifying land titles in that loans may be negotiated at rea. enable costs. The bill, which was introduced several weeks ago. is intended to give owners of farms a recognized and approved ioan value in the form of a government certificate, which may be accepted as official security for loans limited by the amount for which the property is approved. Congressman Langford, of Georgia, who introduced the bill, made this statement in referring to it: "Can there possibly be a better loan system than the one here proposed, which will enable the farmers of our country to borrow the money they need, when needed, for as long a time as needed and without exorbitant fees? "A system which will enable them without delay and extra cost to reborrow anu lepay from tirr.c to as desired any amount limited only by the approved value of the property. The system proposed will help not only the farmers, but the entire country. "I am sure the banks throughout the country will gladly cooperate in the operations under this bill. Especially is this true of the country banks. Improvements are steadily being made in the etforts to make the telephone more useful. One of the latest is to record a message if the person wanted is not present. An instrument records the message and when the party for whom it is intended comes to the 'phone the mes-age is repeatd to him. . . . . . . . MAKING THE PANAMA CANAL DRY The effort of the prohibition leaders to make the Panama canal dry is meeting with opposition by the government authorities. Secretary Weeks has requested that federal prohibition agents be kept out of the canal scone and permit the governor ??f the canal zone to continue the administration of the national dry law there without assistance from other departments. The Secretary fears that the two sets of dry officials might clash in the administration of the law. The Panama canal is a wet proposition and the canal zone has not been so very dry. SOFT SNAP FOR AUSTRIA On some occasions the United States seems very liberal with the peoples' money. Austria owes the United States $24,000,000 for money ad-1 vanced, but our generous government I has agreed to let Austria have twenty five years in which to pay the debt.

At this writing it is not thought probable that any special adavntage is to be gained by the conference and it is probably as well that this country did not spend any money in sending representatives to Genoa. Some of the representatives are said to bo favoring disarmament and at the same time improving their garrisons and in peace preparing for war.

FORMER RESIDENT WRITES AN INTERESTING LETTER Dear Editor I note with no little interest the amount of cooperation among busness mon esnprinllv i? tViic truo witli the farmers. South Carolina unquestionably has been hard hit by the boll weevil, but it is not alone in this respect, and I hope it will not be alone in the fight against the weevil. South Carolina will always raise cotton, that she should do but they should plant other crops to supplement cotton, truck, peanuts, sweet potatoes, spuds, velvet beans and clover. And keep more hogs, cows and poultry. If properly handled it can be made one of the the most profitable side lines on the farm. Then too a creamery, a small creamery often gives the farmers some ready money daily. We have in Ocala, just started a small creamery about 2 Vj months ago. The first day we had come in about 146 gallons of milk. Today we are getting 500 gallons daily, with a daily increase. Prices are 35 cents and 40 cents per gallon according to butterfat. One of the most necessary things in trucking and poultry raising is cooperative marketing so as not to Hood one market and others really in need of truck and eggs and willing to pay the price, go without. I am also gratified to note the interests in better schools and good roads, there is notning thai, has more tendencv to build a ronntv stnto nr nation, than Rood schools and roads. 1 am proud to hoar of so many improvements in South Carolina especially Chesterfield county (my old home) glad to hear that so many people are contented, and progressive and unafraid. We all have a lesson to learn, and if we keep our hearts pure, character clean and head cool, we can face the future with confidence. In casting my lot with the good people here in Ocala, Marion County, Florida, some seventeen years ago, I have learned to love my adopted home and the people, where we have one of the best counties in the State of Florida. At any time should any of my old friends wish to make a change in their location and wish the true facts of conditions in Ocala and Marion County, Florida, I would be only too glad to be of service to them.

Milk added to such a diet cures this tropical disease. Beri-beri is a disease of the nerves similar to pellagra. Milk cures it. Inflamatory rheumatism has been cured by an entire milk diet. The milk washes away the poisons caus- j ing this ailment. Milk cures sore eyes when same is caused by deficient diet. Milk adds actual inches to man's stature. Japanese coolies were experimented upon, and after being feu much milk, several inches were added to their height. Milk plus fresh air and sunshine. cures tuberculosis, A milk diet exclusively will greatly reduce flesh. A milk diet exclusively will add Rood solid flsh to a thin person. Milk was one iff the main foods upon which Jack Dempsey trained for his winning battle. It makes dependable brawn and muscle. Milk is recognized as the gie?l?.-sli "protective food" known to man.

SCOUT WHO PLANTED ORCHARDS Not all of the great scouts were Indtun lighters. 1m contrast to the career of Lewis Wetzel, who was something of a professional Indian killer, la the life of John Chapman or "Johnny Appleseed." Chapman never killed an Indian In his life, but be r*iouui'iy suveu as many wlilte men I from death at their hands as Wetzel ' did. " Chapman tirst appeared on the Ohio frontier In 1800. He came floating down the Ohio river in a canoe, towing another, and both boats were loaded with apple seeds from the cider mills of Pennsylvania. His purpose was to plant the seeds in the wilderness so that orchards would be started for the settlers when they arrived there to jmike their homes. For the next 30 years he went everywhere up and down the Ohio country, planting seeds, going from one orchard to another, pruning and caring for the .voting trees. He was a welcome visitor in the Jog cabins of tlie settlers for he always carried u Bible and some hooks from which lie would read and preach to them before the blazing fireplaces In tbe evening. Johnny practiced his teachings of humility and kindness. He never killed anything fur food. He carried a kit of cooking utensil*, Including a mush pan, which he sometimes wore as a hnt. Usually he wore u brond-brimmed black hat, but a coffee sack with arm holes cut in It was ills only coat. White men called him "queer," for he often went barefoot In winter as well us in summer, but the Indinna said, "lie has been touched by the Oreat Spirit." He went everywhere among them unharmed, for the fact that Johnny never carried a gun convinced them that he was under the special protection of the Manito. During the War of 1812 when the British were overrunning the Ohio country, Johnny Appleseed performed his greatest service for his people. In liis wanderings among the tribes he often learned of their plans for attacks on the settlements. Where no other white man could have gone, Johnny passed In safety and more than once he carried warnings to the settlers, giving them time to prepare for defense before the red Invaders swept down upon them. All this time Johnny Appleseed was carrying out his cherished dream of making Ohio bloom with fruit trees and many of the finest orchards In that state today owe their beginning* \ to this strange man. In his later years Johnny left the country which he had luart of pure milk per day. Mo "sick lays" are common here since milk las become the conditioner. The Chinese, Japanese, and similar races who have never known the dairy cow are undersized and lack inititave and "pep." World leaders ire invariably of milkfed nations. Miss Florence Busse of Iowa State i College, has divided milk into the fol- \ lowing: For muscle, milk and cheese; , for bones, milk, cottage cheese, and cheese; for energy, butter and cream; for body regulator, butterfat; for growth, milk, butter. Milk prevents scurvy or cures it. School children who are regular ] milk users complete the grades in two ; years ahead of non-milk users, ac- j cording to an experiment on 55,000 ! children in Los Angeles. In all atheletic competitions milkl* drinkers invariably win over non-milk drinkers. Milk makes well developed tissues, smooth, bright eyes, and healthy col- i The lime in milk builds strong bones. m The vitamines in milk insure normal growth. Children who do without milk are *pt to be nervous, irritable, have indigestion, are restless ni?ht, and J take cold easily. 1 The old cow is the standard manu- * facturer of our all important vutimines. Stunted children or stunted men "come back" on a diet of milk. Milk is beneficial in the treatment of boils, pimples, gasto-intestinal derangements, diseases of the respiratory passage, and as a preventative of bubonic plague. Its vitamines are the reason.

The best baker's bread to be bought' today is now made with miik instead of water. This costs thousands of doll-1 ars more a year, but it pays because i the bread is tastier and keeps longer,! as well as better for us. Milk makes fighters.

Babies die like flies every year because ignorant mothers attempt to improve upon nature with milk substitutes. God made milk for babies. Good cocks everywhere use milk instead of water in making their good dishes. Likewise they use butter in- j stead of lard-like substitutes for the same reason.

YOUNG. | (Q by McClura Nawapapar Hyndlcata ) THE WOMAN WHO PLAYED FOB ' A CROWN. TIE beginning of the Seventeendfc century found Henry IV on Him- j throne of France, perhaps Its abieat< king since Charlemagne. He was-dtovoted to Gabrlelle d'Estrees, '"'iMrto: vmurieiie," nuu planned to marij> twr, but her death Intervened. Uearjfv wu disconsolate. For three months, helocked himself In a black-draped chanv, ber and took counsel with his grl-)f. But this could not last and be was perauuded to return to Paris. AlmoBt the first person Henry met was llenrlette d,' Entraguea. Henry was vanquished. Bat Henrietta was a thorough vamp. She talked about marriage. Henry demurred. Then her family carried her off from "the wicked king" whom sfce had ensnared. Henry's passion led him to sign a contract with the family agreeing to wed llenrlette If she gave him a j male heir In a certain time. Then i everybody was happy for a while, all but the Due de Sully, the king's minister. One day he announced to Henry, ! "We have been marrying you, sire. . Marie de Medici Is to be yoqr; ' queen." ' Henry vehemently protested, but. Sully talked of the advantages In * marriage linking him to the grenc j house of Florence. And Henry relenti- * ed.

"The king may take- my life If he pleases and everybody will say that he killed his wife, for I was queen before the Tuscan woman," was the bold declaration of the prisoner. Henry had her released and their Intimacy continued until Henrietta's Imperious temper made him seek relief In other quarters. This he found In the soft graces of Charlotte de Montmorency. Henriette was banished from court, and In her country retreat she turned to strange practices. The woman who had been a perfect type of the vampire sank herself Into gluttony and drink.

Every shopseper along the Via Shlala In Naples lew his lordship, and every one of lem admitted that a more reprentative member of the British ariscracy had never visited Italy.. Lord Herbert was not only lavish ith his money, but It was whispered round the Grand Hotel.dl Napoll that - - - - - Is daughter, Sylvia, soon was to De lurried to one of the richest m^a In lugland. Therefore when the Bngllsh nobletan wundered Into the establishment f the largest Jeweler in- Naples some ivo months after his arrival in the Ity and asked to be shown some dlaiond necklaces, there was an Immedlte scurry to wait upon him. Finally lie proprietor himself requested I/ml lerbert to come Into his private ofce while he took from the safe a ecklace valued at 450,000 francs, the roperty of a client who was In finaolul straits. "I would like to purchase something o give my daughter for a wedding iresent," explalued the Englishman, iiid the Jeweler nodded for the rumors f the engagement had already reached lis ears. "I'm afraid, though," coninued his lordship, "that this neckuce is u little more expensive than 1 an afford at the moment. I don't loubt Its vnlue, but I'll have to have a "! ittle time to think It over." "Certainly," agreed the Jeweler. "I ^ vill be pleased to hold It as long as ,ou wish and, should you desire t<T see and examine it again, I will be >ery glad to bring It to the hotel ut ( our convenience." "That would be excellent," assented the \ isitor. "but I nnturnllv do nut bvisli my daughter to know anything iihout the .transaction. Tlie whole matter is 10 be u surprise to her." A f"W days later, in response; to Lord Sheffield's request, the Jeweler ^ took the necklace to the Grand hotel 1 nod found the Englishman alone in the room. After a very careful examination of the diamonds terms were agreed upon and Lord Sheffield had just produced his letter of credit from his wallet when a girl's voice was heard In the corridor. Just outside the door. "My daughter 1" exclaimed the Englishman. "She mustn't know anything about this," and he swept the ^ necklace and the wallet Into the drawer of the desk before which he sot. A 1 moment Inter Sylvia Sheffield came in and nnnounced that her father's tailor hud arrived and wished to see him at i once. Excusing himself with the state- * inent that he would he hack very shortly, Lord Herbert left the room and his daughter followed him iumie- j ? diately. t When half an hour had passed the Jeweler began to wonder what was detaining his client, but he didn't worry in the least because bis necklace and bis lordship's wallet were there In the ,i drawer of the desk, right under his Vl hand. The transaction Involved too much money to warrunt any linpn- U tience, so It was not until two hours i had slipped by before the jeweler rang M for the hotol clerk and requested to know what was detaining Lord Sheffield. "His lordship and Miss Sylvia left the hotel nearly two hours ago," was the reply. "They hiul received a cablegram from England." Sensing that he had been robbed, the jeweler tugged at the drawer of the desk only to find that It was locked, but a moment's examination of the next room sufficed to show that the wall against which the desk was placed had been pierced and that the whole procedure had been u plot to lift the neckluce and make a quick getaway. Lvlgl Ronfl, one of the shrewdest detectives in Naples, was Immediately placed In charge of the case and telegraphed to Home to have the pair arrested. Sheffield, anticipating such a move, had planted two confederates In the capital, and by the time that the police had found that their a^lbl was ironclad the real criminals were well on their way northward.
