C. — The average -price of southern cattle sold in the northern markets has been increased $3 a head as a result of tick eradica- tion, making a gain for the year from this’ source of $3,000,000, according to Dr. A.D. Melvin, chlef of the Unit- ed States Bureau of Animal Industry. ‘The sections of the south which have have been freed from these pests and Telleved of all quarantine restrictions have been benehted in many ways, In a recent’ report on this work, he says: “More cattle are being raised, and a better grade of breeding stock 1s be- ing introduced; calves grow faster, and cattle“put on flesh more rapidly during the grazing season and go into the winter in better condition because of the absence of the ticks; they can be marketed without quarantine restrictions, and higher prices are be- ing obtained; dairy cows give a larger yleld ‘of milk, and values ot farm lands are enhanced. Aside from its own observations, the bureau has received from persons in the. released territory numerous letters and othe: expressions confirming tae foregoing facts and testifying to the great bene- fits following the extermination of the ticks. “The difference between the prices realized for cattle from the tickin. fested region and the prices of cattle of similar grades from above quar- antine ne Tanges from $2.25 to $5 a head at the princlyal northern live stock inarkets, without taking into account the improvement in quality and weight of cattle because of the eradication of the ticks, As more than 1,000,000 cattle from. the quaran- tined area are annually sold in the markets, it can easily be seen that the extermination of the tick means an annual increase of at least $3,000,- 000 in prices obtained for southern cattle sold in northern markets. In ad- dition to this, the increase in prices of cattle sold locally in the south would represent a large sum. Thws local increase has already been found to amount to from $3 to $15 a head in the territory recently freed from ticks. An agricultural oficial of one of the southern states reports that calves In the tlek-free area bring just double the price that can be obtained for similar calves in the tick-infested Tegino, “Heretofore, {t has been smpracti- cable to improve the quality of south- ern cattle by Introducing fine breed- ing animals from other sections, be- cause such animals were lablo to con- tract Texas fever and die unless pro- tected by inoculation. Furthermore, it is impossiblé for animals to attain good growth and thrive when they are heavily infested with ticks. With the eradication of the ticks, however, the southern farmers are enabled to’ pro- duce good breeding ammals and to-im- prove the grade of their stock.” e BUND DEALERS FAIL Fisk and Robinson of New York Go Under. New York City—Fisk & Robinson, bond dealers and members of the New York Stock Exchange, failed for a million dollars. An involuntary peti- tfon in bankruptcy was filed by cred- ftors in the United States district court and Brinson Winthrops was ap- pointed receiver with ‘a bond of §10,- 000.

Fort Valley, Ga.—The heretofore unconquerable foe and drawback tc ‘Yhe successful cultivation of orchards is being rapidly wiped out, and in a short time San Jose scale will be entirely eradicated from the orchards of Georgia and other fruit-producing states by the use of a combination of parasitis fungi which is being de veloped, cultured and applied under a mew process, A great amount of experimental . Work has been carried-on by the gov- ernment at experiment stations along tais line, with the result that the dis- covery has been made that by com- Lining several parasitic fungi to be found in Florida with a new species of fungi recently discovered in South . America, and cultivating them un¢er @ new process, perfect results are ob- tained in the completé eradication ot this, the most pestiferous foe that the orchardists of thisssection have ever had to contend with, Heretelore the orchardists were compelicd to whitewash taeir trees otice or twice a year; as well as spray theni_ with some strong mixture at least annually and irequently oftener, in order to curtail the ravages of this pest, yet cach succeeding year the scale would begin its devastating work again. Scme were apprehensive lest the Introduction of this fungi into orcn- ards might produce a disease of the treeS or attack the fruit, but a thor- ough investigation ‘by the experiment stauon in Florida demonstrates con- clusively that no such danger need be anticipated from this scale-destroy- ing fungi, for as soon as these fungi have destroyed the scale ixtsects ana other pests upon which they live, there being nothing more for them to feed upon, they perish. When first discovered, these fungi were Applied’ by tying a stick which contained it to every fifta tree in every fifth row, and them only in ‘warm weather—by this method sev- eral months would elapse before it had spread sufficiently to encompass an orchard. By the new process ot application, the swish of a whisk broom containing ‘the fungi on each tree is all that is necessary, and from four to six weeks will find the orchard tous treated absolutely free from all scales. WILL USE PRISON LABOR< Tuberculosis Hospital and Reformato- afy Will Be Erected by Convicts. Atlanta, Ga-——Chairman Rufe Hutch- éns .ani Commissloner Wiley, ‘Wil- <Mams of the prison commission are both at the prison farm near Milledge ville, perfecting the plans tor the erection of a tuberculosis hospitz and a reformatory building in the near future. The contract for the re formatory has already been let to an Atlanta firm of contractors and the building is to be completed by Marc: first. Heseafter, tae commission is going to adopt a new rule in the erectia. of buildings,*whereby the state will be saved about 50 per cent in thelr cost, according to Chairman Hutcn ens. Mr. Hutchens found, upon in. vestigation, that there are enougn skilled. carpenters and mechanics in- carcerated!sin the penitentiary to do all the building work -needed. He will ask that the various coun- ties in which these skilled laborers are doing road work exchange taem with the commission or give thent up. In that way he expects to organize a corps of about ten skilled workers. The services of a Cedartown contrac- tor have been secured to devise and superintend the building work. 4 foreman will be employed to over- took the workers. All the actual ta- bor will be done by convicts. FERTILIZER ESTIHATE Prospective Consumption of | About 800,000 Tons of Fertilizers.

We have learned that changing the Convention from June to November does not meet the approval of a host of brethren. It will be remembered that the change was recommended in the Fresident’s annual address, which paper was referred to a committee; the committee reported favorably and subsequently the convention adopted and approved it by her votes. Let's go up to Atlanta in full force, and if the change is not the best, let’s urge that the convention may re- scind its action; but, personally, I think the change from June to No- vember is best, Ist.

We are’ told to “be careful” zo often that we are heart- fly weary of tho phrase and ready to cry out in exasperation that there are many other virtues quite as important and far less trite. And there aren't. ‘A few days ago in this city a young woman died, presumably of a very real “broken heart.” Sho had been accused of accidentally causing the death of a patient of whom she, as a trained nurse, was in charge. And the weight of the burden thus cast upon her literally wore out her strength ‘and sapped her life: She had been, whether rightly or not, accused, not of crime but of “carelessness,” not of wrongdoing, but of fatal inat- tention to detall. That 4s an extreme instance, of course; a tragedy that startles us DY its"sheer horror. And yet there are women every day wao are falling in business because they do not pay at- tention to details.

They were ‘mostly due to race hatred, for seventy ‘per cent. of the vic- ‘tims were Negroes. The new year opens with an action showing the fine superiority that some yhite people think they derive from the color of their skin.” Han. Jonson W. Lyons has appeared before the House Com- mittee, having in charge the bill to refund the Freedman’s. bank depositors, and spoke in favor of the refund. He made a convine- ing argument and will no doubt be the cause of the committee re- porting favorably on the bill. Since the failure of the bank con- gress has paid to the depositors 62 per cent. of the amount due. Those dividends were declared as follows: Twenty -per cent. Nov. 1, 1873; ten per cent. March 20, 1878; ten per cent. Sept. 1, 1880; fifteen per cent., June 1, 1882; and seven per cent., May 12, 1883. It will be readily seen that 38 per cent. is still due,and this is the amount for which Capt. Lyons is making such a strenuous fight and “which will _redowned to his ever- lasting credit. Tx Columbia County, this State, a number of lawless white men are attempting to drive out in- offensivé colored citizens, many of whom haye left and are Selling their property at a sacrifice. ‘The _governor’s attention has been call- ed to the lawlessness ‘and he has taken steps to haye same investi- gated. This form of lawlesstiess along with lynching; is doing much_to retard the progress of this State and in keeping away capital and inhabitants. It is ne- cessary to commend Goy. Brown for his attempts to discontinue these things, which would be more effective if he had the sup- port of the officials of each com- munity where such disorders arise. Tue colored registered voters in this county number-nearly five hundred. “In comparison with former ‘registrations this is very fayorable, under the existing re- gistration law, yet this number does not reflect creditably upon us when it is considered that we number nearly as many as the -Whites in this county and for our registered strength to be so small while theirs is in the thousands. The tfouble of it is that we have ‘too many careless men, many of them having children in the.public schools, and who refuse to pay a paltry dollar toward their educa tién’and thus enabling themselves to qualify as registered voters: In some manner these careless fath- ers should be reached and made to pay this dollar each year. Those tax payers Who have not register- ed have an opportunity of doing so, even until March before the -books close. Advantege should be taken of this opportunity in order that we may swell our number to a greater extent. 6 —— Send Us Your Name. | We'have received an important vand interesting article from 2 con- tribitor in” Atlanta. If he will send his name we will take plea- sure in publishing the article. The name will not be used with the aricle, but it is wanted only. as a matter of good faith.. Let us hear from you. Shot By His Wife. It is reported that Mr, Wade Walton of Lyons, Ga., ‘was shot by his wife. He was brought to the city for medical attention and died at the Georgia Infirmary. His [body was shipped to Lyons «on Tuesday, accompanied by Mr. “E, B. Cooper, one of his old friends. Mr. Walton was promi- pent at Lyons, and wasa young man of some means. He belong- ed- to the progressive. element. ‘He was 8 Meson, Knight of Py- -thias and Odd Fellow. In each of these institutions, he was “pro-' minent.:, Mr. Walton ..was; also secretary of the Republican:coun- ty organization and would have no doubt been appointed as one of the enumerators for his county. _ His death was a shock to all of his friends. Tuskegee’s Deciargtions. -At the close of the recent Far- mers conference at Tuskegee, the following declarations were adopt- ed, and which we commend to our people: ® 1, Since the Conference started eighteen years ago the number bf land owners and the value of farm property has been greatly increas- ed. .At-that time the Negro farm- ers of Alabama were paying taxes on $4,000,000 worth of property, Now the total valué of their land, machinery, tools and buildings in Alabama is over $16,000,000 and the same degree of progress has bepn made in other states. We urge upon our preachers and teachers to encourage in every way possible, the spirit of land owning, and thet they set.the ex- ample by pwningdand themselves. 2, Thédast-census showed that we had mage remarkable progress in acquiring property and in gen- eralimprovement, In the coming census we utge every colored siti- zen to make special effort to assist the Governments agents by giving them full and accurate information as.to the amount of property own- ed and the number in each family that can read‘and write, that we may not only know just where the race stands, in ownership of prop- erty and education, but also what progress has been made in the ten years since the last census was taken. 3. Since the most af us live by some form or other of manual la- bor, we urge upon every one to acquire as much skill as possible, in whatever form of work he may be engaged, in order to be able to hold his place in the world of Ia- bor, and in order that he may in- crease his earning capacity and, thereby, not only the more easily meet the increase in the price of living, but also become able to ac- quire property and thoroughly ed- ucate his children. We urge the farmer to use more machinery that he may raise larger crops and make work on the farm less burdensome and expensive. : 4. The boll weevil is spreading rapidly throughout the cotton belt. To meet this change we urge far- mers to raise more corn, wheat, eats, and rye and such other crops as are common to the South, tak- ing special note of such hardy veg- etables and grains as grow in the gardens and fields in the winter months, We would also urge the raising of cattle, hogs, and-poultry not only to supply our own needs, but to supply the markets in our yicinity. 5. Weurge upon farmers the amaportance of educating their children especially along agricul. tural lines, as the chief value of money and of all material success ies in the improvement of the home life. We alsourgathe hold- ing of community and county fairs as‘an aid to the education of the masses. We discourage as expen- siye and demoralizing the indis- criminate purchase of patent medi- cines, cheap pictures.and books of no real value, that are’ urged upon the people by agents. 6. We earnestly opposed- to lawlessness of alt kinds{ and in every community where it is nec- essary, we adviso,the the formation of Law and Order Leagues and a hearty co-operation with Officers and citizens in the impartial en- forcement of all laws and the speedy, trial and punishment of all Jawbreakers.

It has stood like a gigantic stone wall thru two panics; and like the great work, the harder the wind blow, and the more terrific the storm, the deeper this grand old institution of which the appreciative Negroes are so proud, rooted and grounded itself into their affections. This company is still adhering to its time honored custom of paying every claim promptly on the day it is due; and ever will. Do you carry insurance with them? If not, why?

Unsound horse is always ready for service and can perform more work than an unsound animal. Many farmers are so careless in breeding to unsound stallions and persecuting unsound horses, that several of the states have passed license stallion laws, disqualifying unsound sires from performing breeding service. This precaution appeared necessary to protect farmers from the consequences of their own carelessness and indifference in the horse industry. As like begets like, a generation of sound horses can be produced only by using sound breeding animals. Weekly Witness. Feeding Silage to Cows. Doing everything at the right time is well illustrated in feeding silage to cows. Careless and thoughtless feeders who fail to observe this rule still complain that silage fed to cows tainted the milk unpleasantly with silage flavor. It is only when the cows are fed silage when milking is going on that this is true. Milk when warm from the cow is very susceptible to any taint, and of course, partakes of the silage flavor if the cows are fed silage while being milked. Hundreds of others who feed the silage ration after the milking period is over and the milk removed from the cow born, and no such milk taint. There is never any complaints about the milk handled in this way, and by far the greatest quantity of milk sold and used is produced from cows which are regularly fed silage, those sed it in summer when the dry weather cuts on the grass, as well as in winter to keep up a big flow of milk. Feeding silage to cows is only a question of feeding it at the right time. But for silage there would not be half so much milk and butter with which to meet the market demands. Weekly Witness. Marketing Eggs. "Eggs vary in color, size, flavor and keeping quality, just as fruits vary, and it is of just much importance, that the poultry man grade his eggs before marketing as it is for the fruit grower to grade his fruit. The nests in which the eggs are laid should be clean, otherwise the eggs will slack in keeping quality. The germs of decomposition enter the eggs through the shell, and for this reason eggs laid in dirty nests will deteriorate in quality more rapidly than eggs laid in clean nests. The eggs should be gathered regularly each day, and broody nests should not be allowed in situ, on them any length of time. They should be of uniform size and color. Where white eggs are demanded, select only white eggs, or on a breed of fowls that lay white eggs. Those in size and color should be all-gardened, and sold, in the local market. In every city there are reliable grocery stores that are willing to buy a premium for regular shipments of select eggs. It is possible by shipping eggs directly to the consumer to get higher prices. For this purpose special crates will be necessary. These may be similar. In construction to the commercial eggs crate but smaller. - Dakota, Farmer. I want to use fertilizer on one hundred acres of my wheat during the coming year. How is the best way to apply it. Should I sow it before sowing the wheat or with it? This latter method is lessening great popularity in this part of the country. What is a good fertilizer for clover? Would the sowing of this fertilizer necessarily have to be kept on regularly. How much potassium can be made by frequent cultivation? Can wheat be cultivated in any way in order to increase the yield? U.P.H. Answer. Sow. wheat fertilizer-with the wheat in the drill, if the drill has an attachment for that purpose, or sow it broadcast. A good plan is to apply the mineral fertilizers, that is, potash and phosphoric acid, in the fall and apply the nitrogen in the spring. Nitrogen fertilizers generally are readily soluble, and if not taken up by the plants shortly after applying, are apt to be washed away by rains and lost. Clover has the power to furnish its own supply of nitrogen which is gathered from the air. This leaves only potash and phosphoric acid to be applied to the land. Sometimes lime is also needed. The sowing of fertilizers need not necessarily be kept in, but it will be found to pay if judiciously done, that is to put upon the land for each crop the amount of fertilizer that that particular crop is capable of using. When a single application of fertilizer is made it does not all become soluble in a single year and its good effects may last for several years. We do not know how much of an increase in the yield can be, imply, frequent cultivation but we do know that there is a considerable benefit in doing so. In a recent number of this paper that was an article giving some results of an experiment along this line. As similar experiments being carried on at the State Fair ground with corn, cowpeas, etc. STIONS THE NO-DATE CULTURIST and the results show that the frequently cultivated rows are much better than the others which are being cultivated about half as much. We do not know of any way in which wheat could be cultivated. It would seem that any method used, would tear out the wheat and damage it more than the cultivation would benefit.—Indiana Farmer. Broody-Hens. It is not always true that when a hen shows signs of broodiness it is nature's hint that she needs a rest. When a hen lays a few eggs and then becomes broody it is due to racial rather than natural or physical causes. In the case of the hen that has been laying for a period it is undoubtedly true that signs of broodiness indicate that exhausted nature demands a rest and it should be given. It is not always desirable to put eggs under the broody hens and allow them to bring off a brood of chickens; so in such case it is necessary to break up the fayer, at the same time giving the hen a rest. Cruel methods are sometimes reported to in breaking up the broody biddies, when more humane treatment would serve the purpose just as well. Dipping them in cold water will no doubt, break them, but the shock to their bodies, which record a temperature of about 110 degrees is dangerous. Confining them in light coops without food or water for several days as practiced by some, will also break them, but when they are released from their prison the hens are nearer dead than alive. When a hen first becomes broody it is better to let her sit for a few days and then break her up. This will give the hen a rest, and allow her system to recuperate, besides making it much easier to break up the broody fit than it taken. In hand when the symptoms first appear. After remaining on the nest two or three days, the hen may then be confined in an alry coop or pen, large enough to admit of exercise but free from anything from which she can make a nest. Feed lightly and give plenty of water. A small coop with a slat bottom, thru which the air can circulate also makes a good jail for the broody hen. A sitting hen must feel the sensation of warmth under her body when she is on the nest, else she will soon give up the work. When confined in a coop such as mentioned, the coop to be raised a few inches from the ground allowing the air to circulate freely, the hen will speedily discover that it is impossible to impart warmth to anything and the sitting fever will soon abate. A red rat fastened to the feet of a biddy in such a manner as to attract her attention is said to be an effective way of breaking broody hens, but this probably might be classed among the cruel methods, as the hen will be continually trying to get away from the rag. Confinement for a few days is as good a method as any, and, if given food, and water, when released the hens will be ready to commence laying again in a short time. If allowed to occupy nests as long as they are disposed they will often sit for weeks, and may not lay again for several months, thereby becoming a source of loss instead of profit.—W. F. P. in the Indiana Farmer. Farm Notes. Give the hens warm water to drink. Don't neglect to put up some good corn fodder for the cattle. Neatness and cleanliness in marketing poultry products will pay big. A 1000-pound steer on feed for six months will produce three or four tons of manure. It is better to keep fewer cattle and keep them well than to poorly care for a greater number. "Beef is the imperial flesh food of the age," said the late L. H. Kerrick, and many people agree with him. The farmers should feed their corn and barley crops to cattle-and hogs and save soil fertility and market the finished product. Many farmers will not milk cows even if they realize that certain profits will result. Such farmers stand in great need of a pure-bred beef bull. Some green corn but now and thrown into the cattle yards is eagerly made use of by the boyine tribe in the production of both flesh and milk. Don't allow the young stock to be infested with lice. Spray them thoroughly with a solution of commercial dip and kerosene and rub well into the hair. Humor the hens, this will keep them happy, therefore they will sing. A hen can't sing very long before she will lay, so the bread upon the waters returns many fold. Young chicks must keep their feet dry, especially nights. A good boope can be made of a dry-goods box turned-down on the side, and raised an inch or so from the ground. Put on a boope, a door with hinges, and a butto to fasten it, and cover the whole within good roofing paper. An Annual Luxury. An English boy went to visit his two Scotch cousins during his summer vacation. His breakfast every morning consisted of plain oatmeal, and he got very tired of it. "Say, Jack," he said, "don't you ever have milk with your porridge?" Jack turned to his brother. "En, Tom," he said, "the lad thinks it's Christmas." - Success Magazine. USE IT IN ADVERTISING Dudley, Tex.—"You may use this letter in your advertising, if you like." writes Mrs. Lena Schmidt of this place." "A few years ago, I suffered every month, but after taking one bottle of Cardui, I was relieved right away. "Cardui has surely done me a sight of good. It brought me back my health. I am now strong and well, and feel better than in years, and am doing all my housework." Every woman needs a tonic, to take when she feels blue, miserable, sick, weak, under the weather. The tonic to take at such a time is Cardui, the woman's tonic. Cardui is also a medicine. For pain and discomfort, due to female ailments, no medicine is so good as Cardui. The main ingredients of Cardui are imported direct from Europe, especially for this one woman's medicine and tonic, and are not for sale at ordinary drug stores. Cardui acts specifically on the womanly organs, preventing unnecessary pain and building up womanly strength. Try it for your troubles. It will certainly help you. Old Wedgwood Cream Ware. Joslah Wedgwood was eclipsed by his own greatness. His world renowned jasperware in his greatest triumph and has overshadowed all his other work. His Egyptian black ware, or basalt, in itself would have won renown for any other English potter. His marbled wares are distinctive enough to have placed him high on the list of ceramic inventors. So it has come to pass that his earthenware, the very English cream ware, or Queen'e Ware, as he termed it after 1765, when Queen Charlotte gave him her patronage and commanded him to call himself "Potter to her Majesty," has suffered by being regarded as the poorer relation of his other work. It cannot be too strongly urged upon collectors to pay particular attention to three classes of cream ware. First, the undecorated or plain, representing the most perfect symmetry and rivalling the work of the silversmith. There are delightful teapots of bold design and exquisite dishes of pierced work without equal in English earthenware. Secondly, the transfer printed ware of the early days, when the cream ware was sent to Liverpool to Saddler and Green. Lastly, the painted or enamelled cream ware of which the recently found Catherine II, service stands as the greatest triumph.—Lady's Pictorial. HARD TO DROP But Many Drop It. "A young Calif. wife talks about coffee: "It was hard to drop Mocha and Java and give Postum a trial, but my nerves were so shattered that I was a nervous wreck and of course that means all-kinds of alls. "At first I thought bicycle riding caused it and I gave it up, but my condition remained unchanged. I did not want to acknowledge coffee caused the trouble, for I was very fond of it. At that time a friend came to live with us, and I noticed that after he had been with us a week he would not drink his coffee any more. I asked him the reason. He replied, 'I have not had a headache since I left off drinking coffee, some months ago, till last week, when I began again, here at your table. I don't see how anyone can like coffee, anyway, after drinking Postum!' "I said nothing, but at once ordered a package of Postm. That was five months ago, and we have drank no coffee since, except on two occasions when we had company, and the result each time was that my husband could not sleep, but lay awake and tossed and talked half the night. We were convinced that coffee caused his suffering, so he returned to Postm, convinced that coffee was an enemy, instead of a friend, and he is troubled no more by insomnia. "I, myself, have gained 8 pounds in weight, and my nerves have ceased to quiver. It seems so easy now to quilt coffee that caused our aches and ails and take up Postm."

Heavy traffic will cut away, wooden pavement about one inch inure years. Farming in some parts of Nigeria has been rendered unprofitable by the raids of baboons. New Alaskan copper fields may reduce the price of electrolytic copper to 5 cents a pound. A Chinaman rescued from drowning is compelled to support his rescuer for the rest of his life. In the 40 years 1868 to 1908 Japan's yearly foreign trade, increased from $13,000,000 to $407,000,000. The hull of cotton, is used in China for fertilizing purposes, farmers playing about $2 per ton for it. There is one mill in Minneapolis which turns out between 17,000, and 18,000 barrels of flour each day. Professor Lankester says there have never been any large, flying animals, and so there cannot be any large flying machines. Japan's principal mineral productions are in order of importance as named: copper, sulphur, silver, iron, coal, petroleum and gold. Poison from mushrooms is frequently reported but only ignorance and prejudice prevent them from being an article of every day food. The convicts of England wear prison clothes marked with a broad arrow. The origin and meaning of this mark has never been satisfactorily explained. Queen Maud of Norway can ride across country at a regular breakneck speed, and she is said to have beaten the record of the late Empress of Austria in the hunting field. The Rt. Rev. John Grimes, the new Bishop Coadjutor of the Catholic diocese of Syracuse, N. X., recently preached a sermon in which he severally criticised women who ride astride. While the area conceded to the thirteen original states by the peace treaty of 1783 was 828,000 square miles, their present area is but 326,000 square miles, the other 502,000 square miles forming in whole or in part 13 other states. When steamers first came into use very little attention was bestowed upon the consumption of fuel. It was not until the Cunard steamers were started crossing the Atlantic in 1840 that reliable records of fuel consumption began to be kept systematically. Blowing the Nose Medical experts are calling the attention of the public to the importance of performing the nose blowing operation in a scientific and hygienic manner. First one nostril and then the other should be blown without undue violence. Doctors state that the two nasal passages should never be closed at the same time. If they are obstructed, as in the case of a cold, the back of the throat is filled with compressed air, and this, together with the discharge and microbes which it contains, may be driven through—the eustachial tube into the middle ear and lead to serious trouble. A great authority on the subject used to forbid his patients to blow their noses when suffering from a cold. The course is hardly one which will recommend itself to those in the hard-of-catching colds. The best advice would seem to be that when it is necessary to blow the nose, blowing should be done gently.—London Mall. A Sybarite. In the gray light of early morning, the traveller in Scotland faced the night clerk resolutely: "You gave me the worst bed in the inn!" he began, indignation in his voice "and eyes." "If you don't change me, before tonight I shall look up other lodgings." "There is no difference in the beds, sir, the clerk replied respectfully. The traveller smiled ironically. "If that is so," he said, "perhaps you wouldn't mind giving me the room on the left of mine." "It is occupied, sir." "I know it is. By a man who snored all night, and was still, all ten minutes ago. His bed must be better than mine, or he couldn't sleep at a maximum capacity of sound eight hours on a streton." "The beds are all allike. That man has been here before, and he always sleeps on the floor, sir. Youth's Companion." Pleasant, Refreshing, Beneficial.

There are 976 plugs."*Filled 11 arounthese plugs {s 8 body of heat-absorbing material. The differente of the temperature of the two ends of the metal plugs, one be- ing in the sun, the other ia the open with a cfreulation of air around It, gen- erates the current of electricity. If the sun goes under a cloud an automatic cutout breaks the clreult between the generator and the bat- terles. When the sun sets at night it automatically shuts off the storage batteries and begins again in the morning. This machine generates through 2 day of sunshine enough elec: tricity to light fivé ghts of 20 candle- power each, to last from three to four days of continuous lighting 7 The Caddie’s Advice. ‘The caddie followed ‘him around the course silently, solemnly, but not un- observant.

Some one the other day spoke of the year 1909 as a year of riotous giving. In the United States this would seem to be the fact, for the total of benefactions made to public institutions in the United States, and which have been reported in the press, exceeds that of any previous year by approximately $40,000,000. tional and charitable purposes." or in some other form, which could not, because of the form of the statement, be divided into its elements. This difficulty applied also in the case of some gifts to education. Hospitals, tuberculosis preventoriums, convalescent homes, sanatoriums, asylums and humane societies are included in The total of the public benefactions reported in the United States within the period of seventeen years, beginning with the year 1893 and terminating with the year 1909, is approximately $1,150,000,000, a sum greater than the capitalization of the United States Steel Corporation by the sum of $50,000,000. The portion of this amount contributed in 1909 in round numbers was $141,250,000. The nearest approach to this amount was something over $100,000,000, given in 1906. In 1908 the benefactions totaled about $58,000,000—a revelation of the retrenchment in giving, due to the depression of 1907. The funding for 1909 does not include the millions of dollars given in small sums for the building and support of churches and charities of which no accurate record is attested. Education seems to have been the favorite means of gratifying the desire to give, for more than one-third of 1909's total, or $54,766,603, is specifically stated tq have been contributed to various,educational institutions throughout the country. Undoubtedly there have been minor gifts which have not been publicly mentioned. It is probable that this great benefaction to education is in some measure due to the conditions which have been required of recipients of the gifts of Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller, and the General Education Board, representing the latter. In order to take advantage of the contingent gifts of these sources of funds representatives of the colleges have bestirred themselves in the interests of their institutions. John D. Rockefeller celebrated his seventieth birthday by adding $10,000,000 to the endowment of the General Education Board, bringing it above the line of $50,000,000. Mr. Rockefeller's other educational gifts amounted to $1,402,000, of which the University of Chicago received $1,177,000. John S. Kennedy bequeathed $2,500,000 to Columbia, $1,500,000 to Robert College, in Turkey, $1,500,000 to the Presbyterian board for colleges and academies and $1,375,000 to other American educational institutions. Mr. Kennedy's gifts to education, therefore, amounted to $6,875,000. Andrew Carnegie bestowed $2,000,000 on the School of Applied Science of Pittsburg and gave $1,840,000 to other educational institutions. Mrs. Russell Sage gave $250,000 to schools and colleges. Ex-Senator William F. Villas, of Wisconsin, who died in 1908, left upward of $2,000,000 to the University of Wisconsin. In Dead Daughter's Name. Mrs. Josephine L. Newcomb, of New Orleans, bequeathed $1,500,000 to the Sophie Newcomb Memorial School for Young Women of New Orleans. She had previously given $1,000,000 to the school. It was named for her daughter, who died at the age of fifteen years. The school occupies a baronial mansion erected by an eccentric millionaire. The apartment intended for an art gallery contains a collection of the playthings and souvenirs of the dead girl. No other Southerner, it is said, has given so much to an educational institution, and few, if any, institutions of this character in the Far South have such a large endowment. Daniel K. Pearson, who has been giving money to small colleges for many years, in an effort to dispose of his wealth before his death, it is reported, reached his last million in 1909. Among his gifts were $100,000 to the Chicago Theological Seminary and $25,000 to Pledmont College. He gave $1,000,000 to various causes. Charles M. Pratt, of the Standard Oil Company; added $1,700,000 to the endowment of the Pratt Institute, Brooklyn. Miss Helen M. Gould gave $150,000 to the Girls' College at Constantinople. Otto T. Bannard, the fusion candidate for Mayor, was among the contributors to Yale's funds, his contribution being $50,000. The Disciples of Christ provided an endowment for Bethany College of $700,000, and Benjamin N. Duke added $750,000 to his previous gifts to Trinity-College, North Carolina. It is reported that he hopes to make this college the equal of any in the North. The Knights of Columbus contributed a fund of $500,000 to the Catholic University at Washington, and George O. Oliver, of Pittsburg, provided a pension fund for the public school teachers of greater Pittsburg amounting to $500,000. Levi I. Shoemaker gave Yale $500,000 in October. Several institutions which received sums of more than $1,000,000 in addition to amounts already mentioned, are Yale, Columbia and Princeton. Institutions which may be described as charitable for the want of a better amount received the next largest amount. This was more than $37,000,000, the exact amount that could be so classed a few days ago being $36,394,064.32. This amount does not include a number of gifts and bequests stated to be for "educa- tional and charitable purposes", or in some other form, which could not, because of the form of the statement, be divided into its elements. This difficulty applied also in the case of some gifts to education. Hospitals, tuberculosis preventiorums, convalescent homes, sanatoriums, asylums and humane societies are included in this group. Million From Unnamed Giver One of the interesting gifts in this class was that of $1,000,000 from "a certain philanthropist," not named in the announcement, for a home for the aged in New York State. The announcement was made through Dr. Robert W. Hill, secretary of the New York State Board of Charities. Count and Countess Szechenyl sent $4000 to the Hungarian Home in New York for the endowment of a ward. Through the death in Rome of Mrs. Christopher L. Magee, the widow of the Pittsburg politician, $5,000,000 became available for the establishment and endowment of a hospital for women in Pittsburg. John S. Kennedy bequeathed $2,500,000 to the Presbyterian Hospital of New York, $1,500,000 to the United Charities and $750,000 to the Charity Organization Society of New York. The last mentioned society also received an anonymous gift of $424,000. Mrs. Sarah Todd, of Carlisle, Penn., in her will decided that she would leave her estate of $750,000 for a home for aged women at Carlisle. This did not please all her acquaintances, who expected that the estate would be distributed in a different way. John D. Rockefeller, having seen a picture of "Smiling Joe," of the Sea Breeze Home, at Coney Island, strapped to his board, yet smiling, gave that institution $150,000. Mrs. Russell. Sage gave $300,000 for the relief of aged women and $180,000 for an industrial home at Lawrence, Long Island. Through the death of John Masterson Burke, an aged bachelor of this city, approximately $4,000,000 became available for a much needed convalescent home. Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt is supposed to be the giver of the sum of $500,000, which was announced for a home for cripples at Chappaqua, N. Y. The tuberculosis preventorium at Lakewood, which has been opposed by some New Jersey people, received a number of gifts of considerable sums. Elizabeth F. Noble, of Mansfield, Mass., disgusted several possible heirs when she died, at the age of ninety-four years, by willing her estate of $500,000 to humane and antivissection societies. The heirs argued that inasmuch as she had given nothing while she lived it was not exactly decent of her to begin after she dled. "Any way," one heir remarked, by way of clinching his argument, "charity should begin at home." Charles M. Schwab gave sixty-five acres of land and buildings situated on Staten Island, valued at $500,000, for a foundling asylum, Mrs. Sarah Morris, the widow of a Chicago beef packer, bequeathed $400,000 for a children's hospital. John W. Gates contributed $500,000 to a hospital erected in memory of his mother at Port Arthur, Tex. Ex-Governor Odell gave $75,000 for a home for consumptives at Newburg, N. Y., and James Patten gave $40,000 of the gains of his wheat speculations for a hospital at Evanston, Ill. For Worn-Out Horses. The love of a horse in years gone by bore fruit in the will of Nathaniel P. Bagley, of Boston, who died there in the course of 1909 at the age of ninety-six years. He left $75,000 to the Boston Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, to be used for the benefit of old and worn-out horses. John E. Berwin, of New York City, gave $100,000 for a maternity outdoor clinic. In this list, perhaps, also may be included the Messina earthquake fund of a million dollars. Gifts which may be classed as miscellaneous take third place. The total a few days ago was $12,983,-025. This included gifts of various sorts, such as the Hero Fund for France reported to have been made by Andrew Carnegie, and Mr. Carnegie's gift of $40,000 to an aged switchman at San Antonio, Tex., who worked for the Pennsylvania Railroad in the 60's when Mr. Carnegie was a division superintendent on that road. The sum was the accumulation of a snug pension set aside for him by Mr. Carnegie years ago, when James Fagan, the recipient; dropped out of sight. In this list, also, is the gift, amounting to $66,000, of Edward F. Searles to the town of Methuen, Mass., where he lives. This was a thank offering in recognition of the town's action in refusing to raise his personal property tax assessment to $10,000,000, as suggested by the State government. F. W. Mattiessen, through the cancellation of bonds and city orders to the amount of $38,400, reduced the excessive debt of La Salle, Ill., to $5000 below the limit. The Museum of Natural History, of this city, and the New York Zoological Society received $10,000 each from Phoebe Anne Thorne. Lady Cook, formerly Tennessee Claflin, of New York, announced that she would give $1,000,000 for the cause of woman's suffrage in the United States, and Edward Ginn, the Boston publisher, who is interested in the cause of universal peace, announced that he would give $50,000 a year for the benefit of this cause so, long as he lived and $1,000,000 at his death. Jacob H. Schiff, whose gifts amounted to more than $1,000,000, and included money for normal schools for Hebrew Sunday school teachers, a technical college in Palestine, the Tissot collection of Old Testament paintings to New York Public Library, synagogues, hospitals, orphanages, etc., gave half of this sum as a fund for the distribution of Jewish immigrants through the port of Galveston. Gifts For Church Work. Special gifts for churches and religious work occupy the next place in the list of totals. These gifts amounted to $9,484,000. Among those included in the list are the bequests of John S. Kennedy of $4,000,000 to the Presbyterian Church Erection and Church Extension funds. John D. Rockefeller added $100,000 to the building fund of the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church, and the Church of the Holy Communion obtained an endowment of $1,000,000. William G. Park left $1,000,000 to Trinity Church, Pittsburg, and it was reported that J. A. Barnett, 'of McAlester, Okla., had given a similar sum to churches of his home town. William H. Ewbanks, of Flushing, Long Island, eighty-five years old, having beweary of managing his real estate, valued at $100,000, gave it to St. George's Church, of that town, with the understanding that it should make repairs and collect the rent for him until he died, when it should come into possession of the income as well as the property. This consists of a business block. Miss Anna McNamara, of New York City, a laundress, died leaving $20,000 to different city churches. Grace Church received $50,000 by bequest of the Rev. Dr. W. R. Huntington, its叔or, who died in 1909. John F. Wallace left $750,000 in a trust fund to be divided between the Cathedral of St. John the Divine ($500,000) and St. Thomas' Church ($250,000) upon the death of certain beneficiaries. Millions For Missions. The amount of money contributed to missions in 1909 should convince any one that the missionary spirit is by no means dead. The sum specifically reported is $12,265,000. Besides this amount there were a number of small bequests grouped in lump sums with bequests for other purposes and numerous sums collected through churches which are not recorded anywhere except in the documents of the missionary organizations. Of the publicly reported gifts John S. Kennedy left $5,750,000 to Presbyterian missions and the American Bible Society, and C. N. Crittenton, the wholesale druggist and founder of numerous missions throughout the world for wayward girls, bequeathed $2,000,000 to the National Florence Crittenton Missions, the organization having charge of the work of these well known missions. The Methodist Church reported that it had raised $2,000,000 and the Baptist Church is reported to have obtained $1,500,000 for missionary work. The African Diamond Jubilee Fund of the Baptist Church amounted to $280,000. About $4,000,000 to Libraries. Libraries ranked next to art museums, the specific reported gifts amounting to $3,995,186. There were others grouped with other bequests in lump sums. As in so many other fields of benefaction, John S. Kennedy led 'the list with his bequest of $2,500,000 to the New York Public Library. Mr. Carnegie, who is said to have built more than 1700 libraries, came second with a gift of $880,-186 for additional library building in New York City; another of $125,000 toward a library for Wellesley College, and subscriptions of $50,000 and $40,000 respectively for libraries for Howard and Wells colleges. Mr. Carnegie also undertook the building of a library at Honolulu which will cost from $100,000 to $150,000. John D. Rockefeller gave $200,000 for the Memorial Library of the University of Chicago. Medical Research Gifts. Research, especially that into the causes of human disease with the hope of finding cures, is attracting the attention of men and women seeking to give of their wealth to some public use. In the year 1908 the total amount bestowed upon research work was $3,800,000. Of this amount George Crocker set aside, property with value which has been variously estimated to be between $1,500,000 and $2,000,000 for cancer research. This he intrusted to Columbia University. Henry Phipps, added another half million to that already given to the Johns Hopkins University for the study of incipient insanity. John D. Rockefeller gave a million dollars for the extermination of the hookworm disease. To Christian Associations. Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations received money for buildings approximating $1,500,000. Mrs. Russell Sage gave $350,000 to the Saltors' Branch, in Brooklyn, and $50,000 for an army branch at Fort Slocum, New York. W. W. Smith, of Poughkeepsie, gave a building and property valued at $265,000 to the association of that city. Alfred G. Vanderbilt gave the Newport (R. I.) association a building costing $110,000, as a memorial of his father. Elbert H. Gary, president of the United States Steel Corporation, contributed $100,000 for a building at Gary, Ind. Thus have some of the profits of modern industry been returned to the public use.—New York Tribune. When a Mason becomes disgruntled and remains away from lodge because his ambition for office is not gratified, he usually confers a favor on the bretairen—Masonic Tidings. The Masonic Sun (Toronto) is of opinion that the apathy complained of in lodges and other Masonic bodies is attributed to "the swelling of the ranks with quickmade Masons. The Mason thus made is usually badly made. What is easily attained is seldom appreciated." No lives on earth can be nobler than those spent for the uplifting and betterment of mankind. Could that radiant gloy of joy and happiness which they have poured into the dark and desolate homes of, the distressed be reflected upon their death bed we would see them pass from this life to that of the realms above in a halo of heavenly glory. The voices that, throughout such a noble life, have been whispering words of cheer and encouragement to the sorrowful may be silent, the hands that patiently and mercifully have administered to the weak and suffering may be folded in the embrace of death, but life itself and the memory of their deeds will live forever.-A. O. Eberhart, Grand Orator, Minnesota. THE FIRST POINT. There is something about great prosperity which makes us hard. There is something about winning uor way that makes us think a brother who loses must be at fault. The Masonic brotherhood teaches us that in our own needy and barefoot condition—not waiting until, we can build hospitals or orphane asylums, not waiting until we can do something large and great—but each quickened by the sense of his own need, we are to be ever ready to ald a brother in need. That is the first point in Masonic Brotherhood.—L. Irving Handy, Grand Master, Delaware. DO YOUR PART. Every Mason should do his part in upholding the lodge and all its interests. Promptness in the payment of dues, a regular attendance, an interest in the work of the lodge, visiting the sick and burying the dead—all these are duties that should not be neglected. Unfortunately there are many Masons who do not fulfill these duties. They are negligent in the payment of dues, they barely attend the meetings, they are not seen at funerals, they do not visit the sick or relieve the distressed Yet these very brethren* are the first to apply for aid when misfortune overtakes them, or when some calamity befalls them. They think then that Masonry is an aid society, and that the lodge should contribute promptly and generously to their needs. They revile the brethren who do not attend them in sickness, and accept small amounts tendered them with illconcealed disgust. They seem to forget that every lodge has a number of brethren who are entitled to assistance, many of whom have been more faithful and more worthy than they. Brethren, in your time of prosperity, while you possess health and strength, be true to your lodge and to Masonry. Take an active part in its work and its charity, and should misfortune befall you, should friends forsake you, Masonry will be to you a tower of strength, a shield of protetclon, a friend in need, and your brothren, remembering your devotion, will rally to your ally with loving hearts and 'generous hands.'—Herald.
