EYE IS THE CREAT EDUCATOR
Teach Your Children to See Things and
They Will Learn More
Quickly
Children should not be required to
learn through the ears at an age when
they ought to be learning only through
the eyes.
The eyes are the greatest means .if
education. No animal except man has
any other education except that which
is gained through the eyes.
The Star-Independent is presenting
to its readers an "eye-teaching" Bible
which contains more than 600 pic
tures applying directly to the verses
which they accompany.
Heretofore the word *'illustrated,*'
as applied to a Bible, meant merely a
few allegorical •'pictures'' of Biblical
events taken from any source and
conveniently placed in any part of
the books, merely as embellishment in
serts, but not directly alongside and ex
planatory of the verse intended to
typify or make plain: but our pub
lishers. at an outlay of $50,000, n.no
prepared accurate illustrations descrip
tive of the reading matter which they
accompany, and placed direetlv next to
the scene described—the only place it
can be looked for or found quickly, the
only place the illustration is a help to
you—making this the onlv really illus
trated Bible.
in ;s idition to these eye-teaching
text pictures, there are also numerous
fuli-page color plates from the world
famed Tissot collection. and those are
properly placed in the chapter or sec
tion which they so niagnrfieentlv illus
trate. showing also the particular verse
portrayed.
You will enjoy this Bible, whether
yon belong to church or not. for i*s
"eye-teaching" pictures make -it of
rare educational value to all. both
young and old.

LANCASTER TOBACCO MARKET
Crop Will Be Late in SeUing and Strip
ping Is Not All Done
Lancaster, Nov. 30.—After the
rains that broke the 12 weeks' drought
it was reasonably supposed that Lan
caster county *8 new tobacco crop
would be speedily stripped sml that the
buying of the crop would then b>»gin,
grower and packer having all along de
clared (hat there would oe nothing do
ing until the tobacco was stripped.
Much to the disappointment of ev
erybody concerned iu the tobacco in
dustry. stripping has not become gen
eral, for the very sufficient reason tnat
a laige percentage of the crip is
ready for stripping. It has nal cured
yet, late as it is. because it was held
back by ,the long dry spell. While the
bulk of the crop has colored well
enough, a groat deal has taken on a
dirty yellowish tinge that wil. mate
rially lessen its value if it holds that
color until cured.
The growers believe that the later
curing process will improve tlie tone of
the leaf, but the packers do not think
so. The la«t week a few crops wtie
sold around Mavtewn for 9'_, cents a
pound, but it is not believed this is a
sure indication of the price tlrit w>!l
prevail this season. The various farm
ers' associations are impressing upon
the growers the necessity for holding
out for prices above 10 cents a pound,
one organization even declaring that
15 cents must bo paid, but the packers
declare they will be unable, because of
present market conditions, to pay as
much as 10 cents a pound
Vnder the present outlook, the to
bacco will be very late selling. It is
a matter that greatly concerns the busi
ness interests of Lancaster and every
town in the county, as the sale of tie
crop would turn loose at least $2,000,-
000 in ready cash.

WHAT CATARRH IS
It has been Mid that every third person
is troubled with catarrh ia aotne form.
Science haa shown that nasal catarrh
indicates a weakened condition of the
body; that the secretion of the mucous
membranes arc quickly affected, and local
treatments in the form of snuffs and
vapors do little, if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and r. building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Try it.
