SYLVAN STONEWALL MRS, ASQUITH AND LADY HAIG ACTIVE Husbands' Elevation to High Positions Accredited to Them. HAVE GREAT INFLUENCE.

Great Britain Prime Minister's Wife of Material Assistance to Him, and She Is Probably Most Influential Woman In English Politics--Lady Haig Also Powerful. -Two women, Mrs. Asquith and Lady Haig, are playing an active part in Great Britain's politics. To their work is accredited the elevation of their husbands to high positions. The action brought by Mrs.

Asquith, the wife of the prime minister, against the London Globe to restrain its editor from publishing any more letters from its readers Indirectly referring to her AS a friend of German prisoners of war interned in Donnington Hall had much more behind it than the extremely courageous action of an independent and fearless woman. The prime minister's wife is probably the most influential woman in English politics in modern days. The late Duchess of Devonshire, the "Double Duchess," as she was called because she captured two ducal titles in succession, that of the seventh holder of the Manchester title and the eighth of Devonsbire, could perhaps have had greater political power if she could have persuaded the indolent Duke of Devonshire to accept the office of prime minister. Mrs. Asquith, on the other hand, is commonly believed to have materially assisted her husband to this high office.

His enemies have always been legion and his friends not pumerous, his character being that of. the serious Scotsman who forms emotional ties with difficulty. Mrs. Asquith, brilliant, witty, temperamental and Intellectual and invariably entertaining, has supplied this deficiency and by her tact and charm she has kept unimpaired many political friendships useful to her husband. The withdrawal of the British forces from the Gallipoli peninsula is credited to Mrs.

Asquith's advice, coupled with the recommendation of Major General C. C. Monro, who succeeded General Sir Ian Hamilton as commander at the Dardanelles, which was made public in the house of lords by Lord Ribblesdale, Mrs. Asquith's brother-in-law. Lady Haig, the wife of General Sir Douglas Haig, who has taken over the command of the British troops in France as the successor of Field Marshal Viscount French, Is credited with having exerted great influence toward her husband's advancement in the army.

She was the Hon. Maud Vivian, I one of the "Vivian twins," who were famous as maids of honor to Queen Victoria and Queen Alexandra. Before his marriage to Miss Vivian ten years ago Haig was a favorite with General French, having served under French at Aldershot and then accompanying him to South Africa during the Boer war. Whatever French has been able to do for Haig has been done, but his present high command is the result more of the influence at court of Lady Haig, and Lord Kitchener has been persuaded by royalty's desires to advance the man most favored by his old enemy, General French. Sir Douglas Halg was promoted to be a full general only a year ago, although he had held the post as chief of staff in India for some years, having won it through the influence of King Edward and Queen Alexandra.

Sir Douglas and Lady Haig have not taken any particular pains to assume any leadership in London society since their marriage and have not kept upa London residence during visits home from India, spending their time at Aldershot, where Haig earned the nickname of "Von Halg" on account of his Prussian thoroughness in military matters and his stern way of handling subordinates. He and Lady Haig have two children, daughters, named after the two queens whom Lady Haig served--Alexandra Henrietta Louise, born in 1907, and Victoria Doris Rachel, born in 1908. CURES BICHLORIDE POISONING Cincinnati Doctor Discovers Antidote For Deadly Drug. -Physicians at the Cincinnati General bospital have discovered an antidote for bichloride of mercury, one of the most corrosive poisons known. Recently Miss Birdie Talbett took four of the deadly tablets.

She was taken to the City hospital writhing in agony. The physicians gave her copious doses of a combination of drugs discovered by Professor Martin Fisher of the medical department of the Cinclunati university. The woman has left the hospital entirely cured. Children Ory FOR FLETCH CAST 1A Stonewall's abstract, showing its perfect title as the model textile manufacturing town of the Southland, has heretofore been published in the colCums of THE ENTERPRISE, JOURNAL, but to do even a modicum of justice to to this fair mill village that furnishes such a worthy example for emulation to all fabric manufacturers, Stonewall should be considered morally, religiously and socially, and in all these regards the highest ideals have been attained, for filtering down from the broad and humane policies of the heads of the great cotton mill plant that gives the town its name, a wholesome, Christian, fraternal spirit pervades the community and every citizen patterns after the golden rule, good will, that -prevails in the big office. This is well evidenced in the splendidly effective organization of the town's two churches -Baptist and Methodist--the former with a regular pastor, Rev.

E. J. Hill, and the Methodist congregation having semi monthly services with Rev. J. M.

Corley, of Enterprise, offlciating in the pulpit. The Baptist church has a well attended Sunday School, prayer meeting service weakly, the W. M. U. strongly organized under the leadership of Mrs.

E. J. Hill as President, and the Philathea Society has largely attended monthly meetings with an interesting program and exercises. And in numerical strength and working auxiliary societies the Methodist denomination, largely under the progressive guidance of Steward N. M.

Rogers, is well abreast of its confere church, As has been heretofore stated in these columns, Stonewall's splendid school is the especial pride of the town people, as, indeed, it is of the county, as it has the most imposing school edifice and the largest pupil attendance of any schopl in the county confines. An advanced curriculum is taught by Prof. Z. W. Irby, one of the State's most successful educators, who is ably assisted by a faculty of four teachers made up of the following capable, well known youn; Clarke County: Miss Lela Thornton of Pachuta, Miss Jessie Graham of Shubuta, Miss Octavia McNeill and Miss Ada McNeill of Quitman.

The worker who toils in this environment is thrice blessed, for from steady employment at a good wage amidst the uplifting influences above told of and perfect sanitary equipment and appointments in one of the most healthful spots 011 earth, he or she can secure the necessities that sustain life very nearly at wholesale cost. The Stonewall Cotton conducts a large store that carries everything to clothe nourish the human system, but it aims to place these necessities in the hands of the consumer, whether it be its own enployces or a neighbo: hood planter at just enough profit to pay operating xpenses. If at the close of the year its trial balance makes both ends meet, this corporation with a soul is wholly satisfied, and hence this great auxiliary merchandising house of the mills is of immeasurable material benefit to the community. Adjoining the big commissary is the Stonewall Drug Store. Its probrictor is Mr.

N. M. Rogers, who is the personification of the christianizhumanitarian characteristics GI chewall. A complete stock 01 drugs and drug sundries are carried, land. as pertains to the other necessities of life, these are here obtainable at probably a lower cost than they can be purchased for elsewhere in Clarke County.

Mr. Rogers is a steward of the M. E. Church of Stonewall. Over the pharmacy is the commodious and scientifically appointed office of Dr.

D. L. Harper, who for Ave years past has been the physician for the Stonewall Cotton Mills, and who enjoys as well a large private practice. Dr. Harper is a graduate of the medical department of the University of Alabama, at Mobile, class of 1909.

He is a close student anu ever keeps abreast of the titanic progressive strides being made in the noble science and profession of the healing art. Just east of the town limits, Mr. Jake Priester, one of Clarke County' best known and most successful merchants, conducts a well stocked general store that has a generous measure of public patronage and which is of great convenience to nearby dwellers. Whilst Mr. Priester's business is not of Marshal Field proportions, such is his credit and standing that any wholesale house in the land would gladly fill his order regardless of the extent of his purchase.

J. E. Stroud is the capable superintendent of the model cotton mills. Mr. Stroud, although a young man, is one of the most thoroughly experienced textile manufacturers of the Southland.

Prior to assuming the superintendency of the Stonewall Cotton Milis 011 February 1st, 1914, he was with the the Lauderdale Mill at Meridian, and his initial experience wag had in the great textile plants of North Carolina. Stonewall has that prime requisite to a town that prides itself on personal tidiness as well as civic cleanliness- a date barber It has been conducted for four years past by Mr. W. G.

The next census bids fair to show a marked increase in Stonewall's popuelation. Dr. Harper has helped to Lusher into the world five sweet cheruFbims within the past few days, and the following parents are correspondtingly happy: Mr, and Mrs. Joe TayFlor, Mr. and Mrs.

G. HASTINGS Atlanta, Ga. --(Advt.) Origin of Canada's Name. It is probable that few persons know how Canada came to get its name. The origin of the name is very strange.

The Spaniards visited there previous to the French and made search for gold and silver, and, finding none, they often said among themselves, "Aca nada," meaning, "There is nothing here." The Indians learned this sentence and its meaning. Then came the French, and the Indians, who did not want them, supposing they had come on the same mission as the Spanish, kept pouring into their ears the Spanish sentence, "Aca nada." The French, who knew as little of the Spanish language as they, supposed that the incessantly recurring sound was the name of the country and ultimately christened it Canada, which it has borne ever since.

Hastings of Atlanta, chairman of the agricultural committee of the Chamber of Commerce, and a member of the executive council of the Southeastern Fair. He does not mince words in talking about the situation. "Every season during the last fifty years," He says, "there has been trouble in the cotton belt, whenever the crop was large price low, or the crop short. Each time the cry of. hard times goes up, and the reason back of it is that the farmers cannot get enough money to pay their debts' out of their so-called cash crop--cot ton.

It is disheartening because it is so absolutely unnecessary, "A cotton farmer's debts are large: ly for food and grain, charged uR against him on the merchants' books at two to three times the price that those same items could be produced on his own acres, and usually without serious interference with a crop of cot? ton large as he now makes. "The trouble is that most cotton farmers owe their crop instead of owning it when made. "The credit way looks the easy. way, but it strangles most farmers before they get through life. "I have said repeatedly in public addresses that no state or section of.

any country can be prosperous that is regularly dependent on another section for its food supplies. What is true of a state or section is true of the individual farmer. "The great exhibits of grain, hay and food products shown at Atlanta the Southeastern Fair held in vember, give the lie to the statement that these things cannot be grown here at home successfully and profitably. "A good big home garden kept planted and rightly tended through the season will produce half of the living besides furnishing an abund ance for canning or drying from the surplus.
