Savannah Tribune

The Savannah Tribune VOLUME XXVIII Central Park School Plans Submitted EXECUTIVE BOARD MEETS Nearly Twenty-Five Hundred Dollars on Hand—Ground-Breaking Takes Place May 7—School to Accommodate Overflow at Morris Brown—School Opens in October. Of particular interest to the members of the African Methodist Episcopal church in and around Savannah was the meeting of the Executive Committee of Central Park Normal and Industrial Institute, which was held at the new St. Philip church, Thursday, morning of this week. At this meeting, which was largely attended, much work of importance was attended to. The meeting was presided over by Rev. P. W. Greatheart, president of the Board. Mr. J. A. Lankford, the church architect, was in attendance upon the meeting and submitted plans for the erection of the central building of the school. After carefully going over the plans, they were accepted, and Mr. Lankford was elected as superintendent of construction. The Board intends losing no time in getting matters in readiness for starting work on the new school, and it is stated that bids for the construction of the first building will be advertised for immediately. The report of the treasurer of the Board, Rev. L. A. Townsley, was very gratifying, and it was shown by him that the available funds of the school on hand were $2,410, and that by the latter part of next month this would have been increased to at least $5,000. Those who have made pledges to the school fund have been carrying out their promises in a manner which has pleased the Board, and the people of the church in general have evinced no small degree of interest in the project. It is hoped that the affairs of the Board will have carried so successful that on the 7th of May ground will be broken for the first building. This will be attended by very impressive ceremonies, the arrangements of which are in the hands of Rev. R. H. Singleton and Rev. L. A. Townsley, who are getting up special circulars telling of the exercises of the day. The fact that Central Park, where the school is to be erected, is about three miles from the city, on the White Bluff road, and that there are no means of getting to it except by wagon or automobile, a committee on transportation, headed by Mr. G. H. Bowen, has been appointed to arrange conveyances for those who go out on ground-breaking day, and the fare for the round trip will be made as reasonable as possible. During the month of August. it is hoped that the building will have been sufficiently completed to allow the holding of an educational chatauqua, which will be attended by visitors from all over this and adjoining states. The school, ofcourse, will open its doors in October for the reception of students. The curriculum of the school will be similar to that at Morris Brown College, of which it is a branch. There will be a boarding department, and as there is a plenty of good fertile land around the school, a course in agriculture will probably be one of the main features. Eureka Ladles' Branch Installation. The installation of officers of the Eureka Ladies' Branch took place at their club room on Gwinnett street, west, last Wednesday evening, after which light refreshments were served. The following officers were installed for a term: President, Mrs. M. L. Biggins; Vice-president, Mr. W. W. Mumpris; Financial Secretary. Miss F: A. Burke; Recording Secretary, Miss Meta Galloway; Treasurer, Miss Rosa Lowry; Advocate, Miss Cora Clarke; Chairlady of Finance, Mrs. Marie Lockley; Chairlady of Health.

THE HOME OF THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN Beach Institute, where on Friday night, March 25, the choir of the First Congregational church will present Mr. Wm Speights, a graduate of the vocal department of the New England Conservatory of Music. Mr. Speights possesses a tenor voice of splendid range and quality, and his appearance here will no doubt be greeted by a large crowd. Local talent will also appear on the program. Directorate of Mechanics Savings Bank Increased On last Saturday morning at a meeting of the stock holders of the Mechanics Savings Bank, which was held at the bank, the directorate of the institution was increased from seven members to ten. The new members of the board are Prof. Jno- McIntosh, Mr. J. M. Northington and Mr. Daniel Simmons. The old officers of the institution were all re-elected. Will Teach school in Philadelphia. "Jimmie Bugg, the eldest daughter of J. H. Bugg, the well-known colored physician, of this city, having passed the Philadelphia Board, has been appointed to teach in the public schools of that city." The above clipping from the Daily Advance, Lynchburg, Va., will be read with much interest and pleasure by Savannahians. Miss Jimmie Bugg spent much of her early childhood days here, where her father, Dr. J. H. Bugg, was city physician for several years prior to moving to Lynchburg. Died in Wilmington Mr. James E. Quarterman, the only brother of Mrs. L. A. Woodard of this city, died on Friday of last week in Wilmington, N. C. He has been sick since the first of the year, and was visited by Mrs. Woodard who spent some time with him in January. The funeral took place Sunday, the service taking place from St. Luke Methodist Church. This large edifice was crowded with friends to pay their last tribute of respect. Mr. Quarterman is survived by a wife, two sisters. Mrs. Woodard of this city, and Mrs. R. L. Hurst of Jesup. Mrs. Woodard who attended the funeral, has returned home. After an illness of more than two months, Mrs. Charlotte Dixon died about 5 o'clock on last Saturday morning at her late residence, 523 East Anderson street. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon from the Second Baptist Church, of which she was one among the oldest members. A just tribute was paid to her, memory by the pastor, Rev. D. Augustine Reid, D. D., and Rev. J. H. Rogers. The service was largely attended. Every one who knew Mrs. Dixon loved her. She was ever pleasing in her manner and only had kind words for everybody. She truly lived a consistent christian life. She is survived by a sister. Miss. Diana Fabian; a granddaughter, Miss Lottie Roundfield; a son-in-law, Mr. W. S. Roundfield, other relatives and many friends who cherish her memory. Civic League to Meet. A meeting of the Negro Civic Improvement League will be held next Friday night, March 28th, at 8 o'clock promptly, at Tribune building. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA,SATURDAY, MARCH 22, 1913 Asked 10 Keep Women Off Streets at Night Asked 10 Keep Women Off Streets at Night CORDELE COLORED CITIZENS' REQUEST City Council Petitioned by Forty Eight Leading Colored Citizens—Loafing Around Depot Also Condemned -Also Asked to Keep Loafers out Colored Section A communication was received by The Tribune this week in which the colored citizens of Cordele, Ga. are requesting the city council of that place to pass an ordinance which will prevent colored women and girls from being on the streets at night after 8 o'clock without a satisfactory excuse. The reason given for presenting this petition to the city council is that many young girls have gone astray by coining in contact with all kinds of immoral characters on the streets at night. It is the belief of those who are behind the movement that many of these young girls are now falling in with questionable companions on the streets will be saved from lives of disgrace if the city council passes and enforces the ordinance such as is requested by the petition. In the petition to the city council, complaint is also made of those loitering in and around the Union depot of that city. The petitioners ask that those who are guilty of this be made to refrain from loitering around this place, and that the law be strictly enforced. The petition in part, which was signed by forty eight colored citizens and twenty white, is as follows: Gentlemen:— Whereas: Our women and girls are out on the streets of Cordele at all hours of the night, we beg that you put a stop to same by allowing none of them on the streets after 8 o'clock without excuses perfectly satisfactory to your Police Force. We ask this in face of the sad fact that so many of our young girls are going astray: also from the fact that we find so many immoral characters on the streets of the colored sections of the city, that our respectable class are brought to shame by passing them. We also respectfully ask that the law regarding colored people loafing around the union depot without cause be strictly enforced. Hampton Teacher Entertained On Monday afternoon of this week, Miss Addie Jayne, one of Hampton's oldest teachers, in years of service given to its Negro and Indian students, while on a tour through the South, during which she intends visiting all Negro schools of importance, while awaiting a train, was pleasantly entertained by Messrs E. G. Bryant and R. F. Gibson, both former pupils of hers. Miss Jayne was very pleasantly impressed with Savannah and with the "farther South" in general, and she felt that our people could rightly wear a smile, while still as busily as ever sawing wood. Crowds Attend Colored Millinery Store MONDAY WAS SPRING OPENING All the Latest Styles in Headgear Shown—Many New Creations in Hats Seen—Exhibition Finest in History of Establishment—Many Sales—Music on Hand On last Monday from about ten o'clock in the morning until nearly eleven o'clock at night, the Colored Millinery Store, 464 West Broad street, was the objective point for such a large number of ladies that it was by all means one of the busiest places in the city. The reason for this unusual rush for a visit to this particular establishment on that day, was that it was the spring opening, and, of course, as the season displays of this establishment always present goods of the latest pattern and ideas, naturally almost all the ladies of the city who like to be decked in the season's latest creations in the headgear, lost no time in getting out to the exhibition. The display of hats, ribbons and novelties which were shown on Monday was particularly pleasing to those who like the smart and chit styles, although to those whose tastes do not run in this direction was found an assortment of styles which greatly appealed to them. There was one particularly attractive hat just to the right of the door as you entered the establishment that caught the eye of nearly every visitor as she entered the store. This hat was the cause of much admiration, and many there were whose choice of selection fell upon it, but to the sorrow of all who came after the first hour of the opening, they found, after asking the price and were just about to say, "I'll take it" that it had a little tag attached to it which read "sold." On the whole, the display of goods was the finest which this establishment has ever shown. That those who availed themselves of attending the exhibition thought very highly of what they saw, may be gathered from the fact that the sales of the day surpassed those of any opening which this store has held. Ofcourse, there was music for the occasion. This was greatly appreciated by the few who could turn aside their attention long enough from the hats to listen to it, yet the majority of ladies who were present were so impressed with what they saw that they had but very little time to listen to music. There were one or two men who were courageous enough to go on the inside, the majority of them being perfectly satisfied to remain on "the outside looking in," for obvious reasons. Chicago Schools May Copy Tuskegee Methods Chicago may well follow the example of Tuskegee in its handling of educational problems, according to Ella Flag Young, who has just returned to Chicago from a visit to Tuskegee Institute. Mrs. Young, superintendent of public schools, will make recommendations to the school management committee this afternoon that will advocate just such a move. She implied in her conversation that her suggestion may not be met kindly by members of the educational board and that it is possible that a small imbroglio may result. SURPRISED BY VISIT "I went down there," said Mrs. Young, "to look upon, as I thought, the teachings of an inferior race. I found the problem of education has been settled in a manner more nearly ideal than in any other city that I know of. We may well follow their example in this city. I am going to make certain recommendations to the school management committee tomorrow afternoon. But I fear the result."—Chicago Record Herald. J. Milton Turner From the St. Louis Republic. Wrapped in meditation, a patriarchal black man may often be seen sitting on the south steps of the St. Louis court house. When asked the reason of his preoccupation, he will reply: "On these steps I was sold as a slave for fifty dollars, sixty-seven years ago." By one of the fairy tales of emancipation, this $50 helot arose to be a Minister of the United with the rank of brigadier general in the army and of commodore in the navy. He became the friend of King Edward VII, of Bismark and of Emperor William of Germany and one of the imperial carriages was placed at his disposal in Berlin. Through his remarkable ability he and his legal partners today stands to win a million-dollar fee in Indian land cases. His rise, as his beginnings were lowly, may be compared with that of Benjamin Franklin, as related in his autobiography. It is a romance of "Up from Slavery." --- The Week Among the Theatres The Pekin Theatre this week has broken all records up to date in point of attendance. The main attraction for the week has been Russell and Owens' Stock Company. Evidently the theatre goers have not forgotten the hit this company made her several years ago, for they are packing the house every night. The company is living up to its reputation, and is giving the people a very enjoyable show. It is booked for an indefinite period. The Air Dome has had several feature pictures this week and on Tuesday and Wednesday nights of this week the crowds were so large that hundreds were turned away. For the coming week the house will present some of the finest pictures to be had, and large houses are expected. The Star, of course, is still the object of much admiration among the theater goers. The bill presented this week has attracted a large crowd each night, and the matinees which are held every afternoon are visited by many who are unable to come out at night. The bill for next week promises to be a particularly enjoyable one, Special Notlee The graduates and former pupils of A. U., one and all, are earnestly requested to come to a meeting of the A. U., people at the First Congregational Church, at one o'clock, Sunday March 30th, 1913. Business of importance. A. L. Tucker, Pres. S. A. Grant, Sectly. Scores - Prof. S. A. Grant, C. A. R. McDowell.

NUMBER 27 May 2nd, Day of Children's Races May 2nd, Day of Children's Races INTEREST VERY HIGH Captains of Teams to be Selected Next Week—Many New Features to be Seen—Negro Business and Professional Men Very Enthusiastic—Committees Appointed At a meeting in The Tribune building on Wednesday evening of the Negro Business and Professional Men's association, the organization which is promoting the school children's races, it was decided to hold the coming races on the 2nd of May, which is the first Friday in the month. Friday afternoon was selected because of the fact that it was considered the most acceptable to the pupils and teachers of the various schools, as their week's work would be completed and they could enter into the spirit of the afternoon free from all worry. The main reason of the association's selection of the first Friday in May for holding the races was that any later date would be too near to the closing time of several of the schools, thereby interfering in a way with their examinations. To hold the races at an earlier date than that selected, would not allow sufficient time for advertising the meet, and, as it is hoped to have the coming races far surpass those of last year, it will be necessary to give the affair wide and thorough publicity. Now that the date of the races has been decided upon, it will be necessary for the various schools that intend competing in the races to select their respective team captains next week. It is expected that a lively contest is going to be precipitated at several of the schools when the time comes for selecting a man for this position. Already there are several candidates for the place at almost all the schools, and much quiet work is being done by those who are after these places of distinction. One of the main faults of the meet last year, which the association hopes to eliminate this year, was the crowding out of so many of the events in which the smaller boys were entered. This was caused by the lateness in beginning the meet and it is hoped to avoid that this year by starting the program at the latest by 2 o'clock. This, of course, can only be done by getting a half holiday for the children, or having them turned out of school about an hour earlier than usual. This the association has hopes of securing. Not only is a wide interest being taken in the meet by the school boys but much enthusiasm is being manifested by the various clubs of the city. Several of them have already signified their intention of having entries in the open events. The unattached entries in the open events will far out number those of last year. In all, there will be near three hundred boys and young men to take part in the event. At the meeting of the association Wednesday night, the following committees were appointed: Arrangement—R. B. Heggs, J. C. Lindsay, F. M. Cohen, H. T. Singleton, Geo. W. Jacobs, W. W. Hill, Edw. Rankin, Prof. R. M. Cooper, Dr. P. E. Love, Dr. A. R. Ferebee, F. B. Pettie, J. H. Hopkins, G. H. Bowen, J. H. Gathers, S. S. McFall. Field—J. H. Stephens, Dr. E. M. Pinckney, Geo. S. Williams, Dr. I. D. Williams, Prof. H. Pearson, J. B. Jackson, Prof. L. B. Thompson, R. M. Rivers, B. F. Handy, W. O. P. Sherman, Dr. W. E. Moody, J. H. Whitis, H. J. Freeman, J. R. Davis. Entrance—Dr. C. B. Tyson, A. B. Singfield, Edw. Wright, P. Edw. Perry, Sol. C. Johnson, F. D. Tucker. Soliciting—R. A.

To all the readers of The Tribune we wish a joyful Easter. To the editors of this paper we extend our heartiest congratulations upon the splendid progress made by them in the publication of The Tribune, which is now edited and printed entirely at the home office. This is certainly a great step forward in the right direction. The Tribune will now be read with more interest as it gives more local news and it will have more space for the debating of questions in which every colored citizen of Savannah should be deeply interested. To The Tribune, therefore, we wish the greatest success in its new sphere of utility in our community. Monumental Notes.

In welcoming them, he said it carried his mind back to his childhood days because he saw so many of his playmates in their ranks. He read for the lesson Psalm 133:1-4. His text was from James 4. The subject was, "Unity or Evil Speaking." The advice was excellent and very timely to all. The choir sang, "Savior lead me lest I stray." Rev.

Lesson XII.—First Quarter, For March 23, 1913. Text of the Lesson, Gen. xxiv, 68-67. Memory Verses, 64, 65—Golden Text, Prov. iii, 6—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. We have our choice this week of a resurrection lesson from Mark xvi or the regular lesson, but as we saw Isaac risen from the dead in our last lesson and this one shows us a bride for Isaac and his marriage, suggesting the resurrection of the bride of Christ, the church, and the marriage of the Lamb, we will take the regular lesson. After the figurative death and resurrection of Isaac (quite a reality to both Abraham and Isaac) Abraham returned to Beersheba and dwelt there. It is our privilege to dwell always by the well of Him that liveth and seeth us and by the well of God's faithfulness and with joy draw water from the wells of salvation (Gen. xv1. 13, 14, margin; xxi, 31, margin; Isa. xii, 3). Gen. xxiiil tells of the death and burial of Sarah at the age of 127 years and of the purchase of the cave of Machpelah at Hebron as a burial place. Gen. xxiv is the record of Abraham's servant obtaining a wife for Isaac and is wondrously suggestive of the present work of the Holy Spirit obtaining a bride for the crucified and risen Christ. We know from Eph. v. 31, 32, that Adam and Eve are typical of Christ and the church, and there is much to be learned from all the brides of Scripture, notably Rebekah, Rachel, Asenath and others. The Bride, the Lamb's wife, is described in Rev. xxi, and in Jer. iii. 14. Jehovah says that He is married to Israel. We have seen Abraham promised a seed as the dust of the earth or the sand of the sea and again as the stars of heaven, and we have seen the two combined (Gen. xiii. 16; xv. 5; xxii. 17). Later we shall see the star promise given to Isaac and the dust promise to Jacob (xxvi. 4; xxvii. 14), and some day when we see the elect church and the elect Israel completely gathered, the heavenly and the earthly seed of Abraham, the stars and the sand, we may wonder that we did not see it before. In our lesson chapter we see a wealthy father and his only son, who had been given back to him from the dead in a figure and to whom he had given all that he had (verses 25, 30). We see also a servant who had control of all his master's goods going forth to obtain a wife for this son and carrying with him samples of his master's wealth (verses 10, 22, 30). The story of the servant's prayer, his childlike trust in God the direct answer to his prayer and his refusal to eat till he had told his errand are all most fascinating and instructive and a grand commentary on the Golden Text. As we read of the only son to whom the father gave all that he had we cannot but recall these words: "All things are delivered unto Me of My Father." "The Father loveth the Son and hath given all things into His hand" (Matt. xi, 27; John iii, 25). Then as to the Holy Spirit, whose special work in this age is to obtain a bride for Christ and who is suggested by Abraham's servant and his commission, we cannot but think of these words concerning Him: "He shall testify of me." "He shall receive of mine and shall shew it unto you" (John xv, 26; xvi, 14). The Holy Spirit tells in His word of the wealth and the love of the Son of God, and the only question for the sinner is, "Wilt thou go with this man?" (Verse 38). When the reply is, as Rebekah's was, "I will go," then the matter of our redemption is settled, and we start on our way to meet our Isaac, having received from the Spirit evidences of His love and His riches of grace, such as are set forth in Lph. i, 3, 6, 7, 13, 14; Rom. iii, 24; v. 1: viii, 1; I John iii, 1, 2, etc. We must start at once, as the servant did with Rebekah, and not tarry in the old surroundings, for we are now His purchased property, and we are to serve the living and true God and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus, who delivered us from the wrath to come (I Thess. i, 9, 10). There is no record of the journey beyond the fact that Rebekah and her damsels rode upon the camels and followed the man as he took them and went his way. It must have been a long journey, commonplace and weary, and they knew not the way, but the man knew the way, and they had only to follow him. The only true life of the believer is to yield to the Holy Spirit's control and guidance and let Him have His own way with us in everything. We cannot but believe that the servant would have much to tell of Isaac and his wealth and that he had little if aught else to talk about, and we can scarcely think that she would grow weary of hearing about him to whom she had already given herself and with whom she expected to spend her life as his wife, the sharer of his toys and sorrows. Rebekah's covering herself as she met her beloved makes us think of the seraphim of Isa. vi, who in the presence of the glory cover themselves with their wings, and of Paul, some of whose favorite words were, "Not I, but Christ," "Not I, but the grace of God" (Gal. II, 20; I Cor. xv, 10). In verse 67 we read that Isaac was comforted, and I Thess. iv, 16-18, tells us to comfort one another, with the thought of meeting our Beloved in the air when He shall welcome His bride.

"I have given up thy friendship, 'twas a hard and bitter thing, But mine's a nature far too proud to bear neglect's cold sting; Had the tie by death been broken, I could have bowed my head And wept such tears as consecrate the memory of the dead. I could have looked beyond the grave and, kneeling, kissed the rod, That, while it smote me, bore thee up unto the throne of God; And yet I do not blame thee, the fault was wholly mine, I had formed a halo round thy brow which was not wholly thine, I had placed thee on a pedestal too high for worldly worth, It hath crumbled now and left thee where I found thee, on the earth; But go, I would not wake again my memory in thy heart; It hath slumbered down the stream of time—oh, let it now depart! It were not worth the trouble, it hath lost its charm for me, Its faded light could never shed one gleam of joy on me." —St. Stephen's Parish Visitor THREE VARIETIES OF RESURRECTION PLANTS. Enterprising florists are now attracting the attention of the public by displaying new and surprising specimens of the resurrection plant, says the Philadelphia "Récord." What is generally known as the Rose of Jericho is perhaps the most widely known of these curiosities in plant life, and other varieties have recently been added to the list of resurrection oddities. The Rose of Jericho is said to be imported from the valley of the River Jordan, and is the resurrection plant mentioned in the Bible. The plant, when received from its native home, is seemingly lifeless + SUITS $15,00 sticks or branches clustered together tightly. When placed in a glass of water, however, the branches expand, seed buds unfold, and soon the green foliage starts out and the plant really grows. The Mexican resurrection plant is the fluffy, fern-like variety often noticed in saucers of water in the florist's window. This delights the children, as the plant is so quickly resurrected from a dry, hard ball to a green, living plant. When it is dormant it is a dry, shrunken, rounded ball of tightly folded leaflets, dry and dead. It is dropped in a bowl of tepid water, and soon one trond-like tip curls slowly outward; then another and another, and in a short time there is floating in the dish a beautiful metallic-green plant, a great, loose-expanded rosette of fine, fern-like leaves —odd and beautiful. The experiment can be repeated many times, the plant curling together tightly when dry, and expanding into new life when soaked in water. The Astericus pygmaeus is the only resurrection plant that develops blossoms. In reality, it is the blossom that is resurrected from a dry, hard, shell-like substance to a full-grown flower. The dry sticks holding these buds are leafless, and the whole affair seems insignificant, dead and worthless, but when placed in water the stems take on new life, the dead soon the petals expand and display flower buds show signs of green, and their fluffy centres. These three varieties of resurrection plants may be kept indefinitely, and their strength does not seem in the least exhausted by repeated resurrections. They quickly go back to their dead or dormant state when taken from the water, and no mater how long they are kept in this condition they are ready to respond with new life when again placed in water. St, Stephen's Parish Visitor In Memoriam In sad but loving remembrance of my beloved husband, LEWIS TYSON. Who departed this life March 21, 1911. In sure but steadfast hope to rise. And claim his mansion in the skies; A christian here is flesh laid down, The cross exchanging for a crown. Meet for the fellowship above, He heard the call, "arise my love! I come!" his dying looks replied, And lamb-like as the Lord, he died." Mrs. Isabella Tyson. In memory of my beloved brother, H. D. DAVIS, Departed this life Easter morning, April 9th, 1898.

The Georgia senators are in the mix-up, and of course the pitchfork senator from South Carolina is holding a star place. This old senator who is generally vitriolic in his speech, uttered a great truth last Monday when he said that in comparison with the Republicans, "we are an untrained mob." This will be more fully verified as the days grow old. With full rein of government in their hands, the house, the senate and the presidency, the bit will be taken between the teeth and many wild and uproarous stunts will be witnessed. The recent pronouncement by the chief of police to the members of the force to rid the streets and corners of all loafers and hangers on regardless as to color, meets the approbation of each and every one of us. That the street corners of Savannah harbor an unusual quota of loafers, is a fact well known to all of us. Besides blocking the streets, they, by their vulgar and blatant language coupled with an audacious and familiar stare, too often make walking along some of our streets a hardship rather than a pleasure. The chief of police made it clear to his men that the pronouncement included not only Negroes but whites as well. This is indeed pleasing to note, for while we do not in the least champion the cause of the Negro loafers and think that they should not summarily be dealt with af the same time we rejoice to note that with their departure from our streets and corners will be also that of the white loafers. Street loafing brings about quarrels and street fights. At least seventy five percent of the street brawls are thus caused. Let the police rid our streets of this nuisance and the keeping of the peace will be a part of a larger number of us. By all means, let us rid our city of the street and corner loafers. They are a destructive rather than a constructive force. They retard rather than advance the interests of our community. They prove poor advertisement to our city. In short, they are a menace. By all means let the street loafer go. Again the grim reaper, death, has been among us and accomplished some of his work. As a result, Harriet Tubman, affectionately known as Aunt Harriet and one of the noblest women of America, is no more. Today, at least ten million souls bow their heads in sorrow over her demise. And why not one hundred million? For, Harriet Tubman not only served the race with which she was identified but her country as well. She was indeed one of America's noblest women. To students of history, the life of Harriet Tubman is well known. She was born a slave on a Maryland plantation. From early childhood, she looked upon slavery and all of its attending evils as a curse. At the early age of thirteen we find her battling, almost single handed, for her freedom as well as the freedom of her people. Possessed of unusual physical strength for a woman, Harriet was able on many occasions to take good care of herself when an attempt would be made by her overseer or master to inflict bodily punishment upon her. And not only for her own protection did she use her physical strength, but for others of her down trodden race as well. After escaping from her master, Harriet reachesthe North where she soon began the organization and operation of the underground railroad. Her great service to escaping slaves is too well known for comment here. During the civil war, Harriet served as a spy for the Union army. As a conductor of the un derground railroad, as a spy and nurse during the civil war and as a life long champion of the cause of her people, the life and achievements of Harriet Tubman stood out in bold relief. She was a friend and inspiration to the great and illustrious Frederick Douglass. Hers indeed was a life well spent. Born a slave, reared at the breast of want, unable to share the comforts and pleasures of life, she stepped out into the broad arena of life and fought her battles for justice and freedom for herself and her people. Her battles were well fought. She is no more. She has gone to her reward. What a life of inspiration has she left to us! Harriet Tubman lived for her people. She lived well. Let us perpetuate her memory by taking up the unfinished work where she left it and, dedicating ourselves to a life of service to ourselves and fellowmen, strive to do our full duty to ourselves and mankind in general.

He was taken much by surprise, for on returning to his home about ten thirty o'clock, he found his house full of a jolly set of fellows who were awaiting his return. The purpose of the gathering was then made known to him by one of the guests, which was followed by several short talks. The table was well laid with refreshments and a band of music added much to the pleasures of the evening.

With assests of $4,000,000 over its liabilities, the American Naval Stores Co., announced its suspension, giving as its reason, continual prosecution by the government. About eighty school teachers from New York arrived in the city on Tuesday on an Easter trip. Monday was St. Patrick's day and the wearing of the green was in evidence. Plans are being made to boost the automobile races next November. The course has been reduced to nine and a quarter miles, thus the races will be more exciting. The police are after the street corner loiters. Several arrests have been made during the weeks. The sanitary inspector confiscated seventeen crates of eggs from Morris & Co., and an East side Greek.

Among the Masons Every Mason should remember that he belongs to a Universal Order, composed of men of all religious creeds and political opinions, whose grand purpose is a combined effort to elevate humanity, and make men better and happier. In Roman times the power of arms and violence made the proud boast, "I am a Roman citizen," a buckler of defense against attacks of the most daring and unscrupulous. For greater ages the power of loving brotherhood has given greater strength throughout a greater world than the Roman ever knew, to the words, "I am a Master Mason."—George Washington. TUBERCULOSIS Dear Brethren, for the past 11 years I have been calling your attention to this dreaded disease and its ravages among all mankind regardless of race, standing or environment. I am pleased to say to you it is now on the decline because of the vigorous efforts made by us all to check it out. Let me beg of you not to let up in your efforts as men in the lodge and in the home to still further crush out consumption. Remember to ventilate your halls; do not allow the members to spit on the floors, or other persons when the hall is used by others. Have your homes ventilated; as far as possible sleep with your windows and doors opened at night. Eat good, fresh and wholesome food. Don't buy food from any one just because it is cheap. (Atlanta Special to The Tribune) The Masonic lodges here are all growing. Weekly, good material is being added to the order through the seventeen lodges here. The members are all progressive and are striving to keep the order up to the full standard and admit none but those that are truly worthy. Not every one that knocks is re-received. There was a joint communication of the lodges a few nights ago looking toward the purchasing of an additional lot 'adjoining their present lot on which they desire to erect a building suitable for accommodation of all the lodges in the city. At that meeting over two thousand and five hundred dollars were subscribed, and since that time most of that amount has been paid in. That looks as though the masons of Atlanta have made up in their minds to stop paying rent some time in the near future. Of course there are some lodges that can do more than they have done and some have done more than they reached the place when the men see the necessity of having a temple of their own. This much is worth noting; the young lodges are more active in the movement than the old ones. In this movement the Grand Master is striving to lead the brethren to success and he will, if they will only do as he says and follow loyally. The lodges are responding to the call of the Grand Secretary in the matter of sending in their Grand lodge taxes as per the rules of the Grand lodge. The lodges have come together and are preparing a beautiful jewel for the Grand Master in token for his faithful and honorable services to the order. It covers every degree of Masonry from the first through the thirty third, he being a thirty third degree Mason, a member of Maloy Consistory, Macon, Ga., and a member of the Supreme council, Washington, D.C., and a member of Gethselem Commandary, Washington, D.C., and a member of the Royal Arch Masons of Atlanta. The Masters will, in a few days, set a time to present this valuable token of respect and have the ladies present, and what a great time there will be! Savannah ought to be here to see how they love the Grand Master and appreciate his services. We will let you hear more of this when the presentation is made by the brethren. The Order of the Eastern Star is going forward here also. They are loyal to the administration to the heart. They have regular, fully attended meetings with good instructions. There are several of the chapters fully regaled and equipped. The sisters take great interest in the work and are putting its teachings in practice. Mrs. Selena S. Butler, the beloved wife of our Grand Master, has been sick for nearly five weeks. She is slowly improving at this writing. She is Past Royal Matron of Ruth Chapter, and last Friday afternoon the entire chapter called on her after the meeting and presented to her a beautiful solid silver waiter in token of her services to the chapter from its organization four years ago to the December election when she refused re-election. The sisters showed that they really loved and appreci- ated her work and love her still. The Most Worshipful Union Grand lodge is so far the only colored fraternal organization to be given license by the insurance commissioner to do a fraternal insurance business in the state. Our license is No. 3, and up to that only one-colored and two white organizations have passed. We think it best for the fraternal societies to at once comply with the law now than to wait and be made to do so later when it will be harder for them to adjust themselves to the state's requirements. Bro. A. B. Reynolds, one of the oldest members of Crystal lodge and also the Grand lodge, is still indisposed, but is up. He is ever present at his lodge meetings. A Successful Agent. The agents of the Guaranty Mutual Life and Health Insurance Company look forward with pleasure to their Saturday morning meetings, at which time important matters pertaining to insurance are freely discussed, and talks by different agents are given. At the meeting of March 15, the following paper was read by Mr. Joseph J. Brown: "Successful insurance agents are like leaders, born not made. It is true many who have the push and go in them may become fairly successful, but to become a real, live, energetic and successful agent, one that his company is always proud to refer to, he must have the instinct born in him, thereby under the management of an experienced superintendent or inspector, that instinct will be developed to a very high degree of efficiency. "A successful agent's greatest asset is 'Loyalty.' He should be loyal first to the company which he represents; secondly, to the members from whom he collects, and to the agents with whom he is associated. He should endeavor to be truthful at all times, and should refrain from practicing questionable methods. A retentative memory is a thing that any person should well be proud of, but an agent should not trust too much to his memory, as forgetfulness sometimes not only places him in an embarrassing position, but causes him to lose his business and injure his popularity in that particular neighborhood, and unless he is fortunate enough to overcome such mistakes, his usefulness as an agent will soon be at an end. Therefore, in order to avoid mistakes that very often do use a memorandum or blank page in the back of his book which would be very handy for reference. "An agent should never be too hasty in receipting a member's book, he should be accurate about date, both when due and when paid. Erasures not only look bad, but when a question arises as to whether a member's book is in or out of benefits it has a tendency to show the agent up in a bad light. "An agent is generally sized up by the appearance of his book. He should take pride in keeping a clean and accurate collection book. He should keep his book in such a condition that he will always be ready for an inspection, so that in case of sickness another agent or special man would find no difficulties in taking charge of it. "The more an agent knows about insurance, the better agent he becomes. He should know his contract and endeavor to make friends with his members, for the best advertisement for an agent or his company is a satisfied member." Resources.

The business of obtaining amber from the ocean has been for long a state monopoly in Prussia. The chief center of the industry is in the province of eastern Prussia. The gathering of the amber goes on throughout the year, but it is most profitable at the time of the equinoctial storms, when the winds and the waves throw it ashore. After a storm the fishermen drag the beach. They deposit the haul upon the strand, where the women and children pick out the pieces of amber from among the seaweeds. The pieces are assorted according to size, color and form. The value of a piece of amber is enhanced when it bears the impressions of plant or animal substances. The prices of the pieces vary from about 13 cents to 75 cents, but may reach to $100 or more. The price per pound runs from about $1.25 to $7.50. A very large piece sometimes attains the weight of sixteen or seventeen ounces. The color is most commonly the familiar yellow, but it may be reddish brown or emerald green or creamy color and some pieces are quite white. The total yield is valued at $1,500,000 a year.—Harper's Weekly. Long Arm of Coincidence. An amusing story from the suburbs concerns a householder who recently bought two theater tickets, for his wife and himself, but inadvertently invited another married couple to spend the same evening at his house. When the mistake was discovered it was decided to hand the tickets to another friend rather than ask the expected guests to come on a subsequent evening. But the man to whom the tickets were given was called out of town, and he in turn hurriedly handed them over to a near neighbor, suggesting the latter should take his wife to the play. Now, this is where the long arm of coincidence comes in. The near neighbor and his wife were the invited guests of the purchaser of the tickets. They thought it would be a pity to lose the chance of such a fine dramatic treat, and, not knowing the real origin of the tickets, they wrote a note explaining the situation and used the two seats which their hosts had meant for themselves.—Glasgow News. Changes His Face Quarterly. Changes His Face Quarterly. He came to the club lunch—the youngest member—and was scarcely recognized, for he was clean shaven. We had known him with a mustache, with navy cut beard, with an imperial and with several other changes on the cheeks, chin and lip. But the clean shaven man was a wonder for a few moments—until some one said, "Yes, it is!" And the young man with the naked face confessed his identity. And he explained the reason for the change. "I don't mind shaving," said the young man, "and I don't mind having my hair cut now and then. But what I really object to is having to get up every morning and looking at this same silly face in the glass. I'm going to alter it now and then. I've an archi- every three months and enjoy the fun in the looking glass."—London Graphic. A School Coinage. A School Collage. It is not a generally known fact that the Bluecoat school (Christ's hospital) once possessed a coinage of its own. At that time the coin of the realm could not be used at the hospital. Before he could buy anything in the "tuck shop" a new boy had to get one of the beadles, who were the school money changers, to change his shillings and pence into "house money," as it was called. This was made of copper, the coins being octagonal in shape, with their values stamped on them. These curious coins are now very rare, and numismatists possessing any are fortunate—London Globe. Meeting Requirements A woman buying groceries was annoyed by the whistling of the clerk who waited on her. She complained to the proprietor about it, and after she had gone that worthy gazed with a soul shaking frown on the boy and inquired why he had been so rude. "Didn't you tell me the other day if I sold that lady anything on time I have to whistle before I got my money?" inquired the clerk, who felt sure of his ground.—Indianapolis News. Out of Place. A. sentry, an Irishman, was on post duty for the first time at night when the officer of the day approached. He called, "Who comes there?" A Hard Job. "Good gracious! What makes you look like that?

The Resurrection of Christ a Historical Fact. At each recurring anniversary of the resurrection of Christ, the one thought which ought to be uppermost in our minds is this—viz.: That it is an objective reality. The Resurrection of Jesus the Most Stupendous Miracle in the History of the World. Though the disciples had heard the resurrection spoken of time and again, they had never truly grasped the idea. It was something wholly alien to their minds—i. e., a literal resurrection. Even Greek mythology offered them no help in solving the mystery. We can't help but commend the early believers in the resurrection, because the age in which occurred was not one given to belief in supernatural religion. The Jewish mind was highly skeptical, as we shall see from the attitude of Nathanael and Philip and Thomas. When the first-named was informed that the Messiah had been found in Nazareth, he replied with scorn, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth. Philip, in spite of his intimacy with Christ, was in doubt concerning the Father. After the resurrection, when Thomas was told by his associates that they had seen the risen Lord, declared that unless he saw the print of the nails and the mark which the soldier's spear made in his side, he would not believe. It is evident that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is a fact. The disciples could not have invented such a story. Their simple education made it impossible. But when it became known that Christ had risen from the dead, for the most part, they believed it readily. Unbelievers Assert That Christ's Death Was Imaginary. Unbelievers have brought forward the argument that Christ's death was imaginary, that it was not real. But anyone acquainted with the methods of crucifixion knows how absurd this charge is. It was a Roman mode of punishment, and was attended by torture of the highest kind. Generally, death by crucifixion did not supervene till three days, and was at least the result of gradual numbing and starvation. During this time the Romans permitted the sufferers to linger on instead of shortening their agonies." These, in themselves, were enough to cause death. But, granting that they did not, don't you suppose that the terrible wound made in His side by the soldier's spear, which measured a hand-breadth, was enough to produce death? It is certain that Christ died; the centurion and the soldiers who were present at the crucifixion testified to His death. It would have been a great reflection on the Roman soldiers to charge them with not knowing a dead man when they saw one. The soldiers of the Roman Empire were constantly engaged in war. They were accustomed to see their comrades and others expire on the field of battle. It is preposterous, then, to suppose that those who were detailed to crucify Christ did not know whether he was dead. Not only did He die, but He was the first to die. Soldiers Slept While the Disciples Style the Body. But no sooner than we dispose of one objection than another is presented: "The soldiers slept while his disciples stole His body." Baser charges could not have been made against the soldiers and the disciples. "Slept while on duty!" Why, a Roman soldier of the old empire would have regarded such a charge as a gross insult. If the soldiers who guarded the tomb were asleep, the Roman army must have become suddenly demoralized, for the guard at the tomb comprised sixty men, and it doesn't seem plausible that all of them would have been asleep at once. They were guilty of falsehood when they said that they slept while the disciples stole the body. They knew too well what punishment would follow such a breach of discipline. The fidelity of the Roman soldier to duty has been beautifully illustrated by the discovery of the skeleton of a Roman soldier standing upright at his post, spear in hand. Excavations made by scientists of the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum destroyed by Vesuvius, A. D. 79, revealed the silent testimony to this ancient warrior. That the Disciples Stole His Body is Equally Without Foundation. When the Saviour was with the disciples, they were not specially courageous, and it is not possible that after they had no one on whom to lean that they would have attempted to interfere with the body. Though we are dealing with a serious subject, a bit of the ridiculous comes in when we think of a few feeble-hearted Galilean fishermen stealing a dead body from sixty Roman soldiers, even though they were asleep, as has been asserted. At this time, the Jewish people were thoroughly subdued by the Romans; they were "cowed" as we would express it today—hence it was the last thing they would have attempted. If the Jesseiples Stole the Body of Christ, What Did They Do with It? "It is a most difficult matter to get rid of a dead body." That it is most difficult to dispose of a dead body illegally, is beyond question. Countless instances could be named, but a few will suffice: A few years ago a cask shipped from Denmark arrived in New York City. After remaining in the custom house awaiting an owner, the customs officials were startled at noticing a peculiar odor coming from the cask, which on close examination, was found to contain the body of a dead man. The murderer was traced and executed. In the early part of the last century there was attached to the staff of Harvard University faculty a chemist by the name of Webster. It happened that Prof. Webster owed one Parker quite a sum of money. Parker had been in the "habit of going to Webster to dun him." One day, however, they must have engaged in hot words over the settlement of the bill, when Webster killed Parker. Being a chemist, he used all his skill in trying to dispose of the body, but after all his labor, some portions of it were found, which helped to fasten the crime upon him. As a result, he was tried and convicted; and, although every effort was made to save him, he was hanged. The Full Moon at the Resurrection Illuminated the Whole City of Jerusalem. At the time of the crucifixion, Jerusalem was brilliantly illuminated by the Paschal moon, the splendor of whose brilliancy can be attested to by multitudes of people who have seen the full moon at Easter. The Holy City was thronged with Jews from all parts of the world, who came to attend the Feast of the Passover. The city was overcrowded. Some of the people had to encamp in the open air, and with such a concourse of people, some must have been astir during the night and would have seen the disciples, had they attempted to carry off the body. Christ's Body Deposited in a Tomb. Through the, generosity of Joseph of Arimathea, to all intents a secret discipline, the body of Jesus was buried in his tomb, a new one in which no one had ever been interred. It is also certain that his body disappeared from that tomb. Now, the question arises, "Where did it go?" The best reply is in the language of the angels: "He is not here: he is risen." The Risen Christ Seen by Mary. The men and women who saw the risen Lord are many in number. He appeared to Mary Magdalene, to seven disciples, to the eleven apostles, to the two disciples on their way to Emmaus, then to about five hundred brethren at once. He ate and drank with them. What greater testimony need we? Character of the Disciples. We have every reason to accept the testimony of the disciples, for they were reliable, men and could be trusted so far as the truth was concerned. They belonged to that class of intelligent men among the lowly who would spurn the idea of falsehood. Wholly satisfied that their Lord had risen triumphant from the grave, the apostles, as they preached, laid the greatest stress upon the resurrection. They made it the bulwark of their faith. St. Paul, who was converted to Christianity five years after the resurrection, declared that HE was determined to preach naught save Jesus and the resurrection; and it was his lucid exposition of the subject which caused the tremendous uproar at Enhesus. Great must have been the faith of the apostles in the risen Saviour, from the manner in which they went forth and suffered and died in order to establish the truth of the resurrection. What man is he, calling himself Christian, but fails to appreciate the teachings of this festal day? All over the world the chimes of cathedrals and the bells of village churches are pcaling forth the news that "Tis the day of Resurrection!" Today we rejoice in the living Christ. Christianity could never have been complete with a dead Christ. It needs a living Head who, tho' unseen, liveth to make intercession for us. "If Christ be not risen from the dead, then were our faith vain, but now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept." "Now, let the heavens be joyful, Let earth her song begin; Let the round world keep triumph, And all that is therein, For Christ the Lord is risen— EASTER IN JERUSALEM. Some of the Sights in the Holy City During the Easter Carnival Ten days of festival, during which one sees many diverse types mingled, and a multitude of languages confounded, mark the arrival of Easter in Jerusalem. The city then presents attractions to the traveler that are to be found there no other season. The festival begins on Saturday, the eve of Palm Sunday, and the first ceremony is the entry of the Greek Patriarch into Jerusalem, in memory of the arrival of Jesus in the Holy city. On Sunday takes place the blessing of the palm branches, which are brought to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. At the hour for service, the temple is overflowing with the faithful. The procession in this richly decorated temple is of a marvelous splendor. The bishops and priests and all personages of distinction have laid their palm branches in the Sepulchre itself. The Patriarch it, and there, before the tomb, hewn out of the living rock, where for three days the body of our Saviour reposed, he blesses the palm branches. Seating himself afterward on a throne at the entrance of the Sepulchre, he sees the entire crowd of spectators pass before him. Nothing of any note takes place on Monday. On Tuesday, the church is closed. The ceremonies continue without display and with nothing particular to mark them. Wednesday is the first day on which are chanted those mournful strains known as "Tenebrae." The processions begin again on Thursday and end at the Holy Sepulchre. All is still under charge of the Greek Patriarch, although Europeans, Asiatics and Armenians, Russians, Greeks and Syrians, equally participate. On the afternoon of Thursday is exhibited what is declared by tradition to be the Column of Scourging, which is preserved in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. It is brought out of a small tabernacle which protects it on ordinary days; and, under the supervision of monks—both Greek and Latin—crowds press forward to kiss it. Greeks, Russians, Armenians—Christians of every denomination—usually join in this demonstration. According to the rabbins, punishment b ythe scourge was an infliction from which no Israelite who had offended the law was exempt. This traditional memorial of the Saviour's cathly sufferings and humiliation seems to possess a wonderful fascination for the multitude of worshippers, whose cagerness to clasp and kiss it exceeds all bounds. Looking at such a crowd, one can somewhat better understand the intense enthusiasm of these Oriental peoples on all religious matters and their ready acceptance of all the myths and legendary tales the monks have invented. Such are some of the incidents of Easter week, in a land where the truth of the Gospel of Jesus and the story of his life and death are still burdened and partially obscured by monkish traditions and superstitious usages. To the simple, believing Christian, there is much in these scenes that is harsh, unspiritual, and far from reverential. Yet, as they are now, so they have been for centuries; and they furnish some of those strange spectacles, peculiar to the East, and characteristic of its people. -St. Stephen's Parish Visitor EGGS AND EASTER. The use of eggs on Easter Day (sometimes called Pasche or paste eggs), is a very ancient custom. By the Egyptians eggs were held as a sacred emblem of the renovation of mankind after the deluge. The Jews adopted them to suit the circumstances of their history as a type of their departure from the land of Egypt. They were also used in the feast of the Passover. Hyde, in his description of Oriental spots, tells of one with eggs among the Christians of Mesopotamia on Easter Day, and forty days afterward: "The sport consists in striking their eggs one against the other, and the egg that first breaks is taken by the owner of the one that struck it. Immediately winning egg, (p. 5an ETAO TAOIately another egg is pitted against the winning egg, and so on till the last egg wins all the others, which their respective owners shall before have won." A similar sport is observed in some European countries where Easter eggs are "rolled upon the green" against each other till broken. --St. Stephen's Parish Visitor "AND SEEETH THE STONE TAKEN AWAY." By W. B. Chisholm. Brightly glows the Paschal candle, for the holiest feast is set; Lillies spray the gilded lectern, and the rose and mignonette, And the hyacinth is trailing round the alcoves of the shrine, And the tippers in their vigils through the night expectant shine. Early in the morn awaking to the Light of Light, shall we At His tomb with tearful Mary, with the sad disciples be; Say not that the grave is victor—that the sleeper still shall sleep And the world in orphaned sorrow still, as now, despairing weep! For in tremor and amazement see the stern centurion start, See the rocky portals waver and the seal that binds them part, And the sun for gladness dancing in the reddening Eastern sky, And the choirs of angels nearing, as on His Nativity. Resurrexit! o'er the sadness of the vanished Lenten way Throbs the organ with its gladness—thrills the harp of Easter Day; And the Cross with garlands wreathe o'er the feast in glory gleams, O'er the Sun of Life that's rising with the sun of His Nativity.

MONROE & COMPANY To produce strong, healthy litters it is not only necessary that the sows be fed correctly upon feeds that furnish sufficient muscle, bone and energy making materials, but that they be handled wisely during the period of gestation. The mother sow needs food for three important purposes—first, for her own maintenance; second, for growth on her own body and, third, for the nourishment of the fetal plgs. Corn lacks muscle and bone formers and in addition is too concentrated—not bulky enough for breeding swine. Tankage, meat meal, lipseed oil meal, skimmilk, buttermilk, brain, oats, middlings, shorts, soy beans, clover and alfalfa are the logical supplements to corn in the middle west. At the Iowa station we have found that most excellent rations for gilts carrying litters are: First—Corn. 88 to 90 per cent; meat meal or tankage containing 60 per cent protein. 10 or 12 per cent. Polite attention as heretofore. Rates are very reasonable. We carry the largest line of Coffins, Caskets Ladies and Gents burial robes in the city. We also have three handsome funeral cars, White, Gray and Black. Second.—Corn, 75 per cent; finely cut clover or alfalfa, 25 per cent. Third.—Corn, 80 per cent; oats, chopped clover or alfalfa, 10 per cent; meat meal or tankage, 10 per cent. For old sows the proportion of meat meal or tankage can be cut down practically one-third to two-fifths and still get excellent results. Stronger, healthier litters having more hair, more color and more bone have been the result whenever we added a suitable protein and ash supplement to corn. When we selected our supplements wisely we also got cheaper pigs. At present prices for purchased protein and ash supplements, meat meal and tankage are our cheapest sources. GET OUR PRICES ON .

All classes of preg- The Tamworth hog is a bacon producer and with the Yorkshire is considered the best breed for that purpose. These breeds are distinguished from the so called lard hog in that they are more prolific, better foragers and, it is said, are less susceptible to cholera and other swine diseases. Dacon breeds are the result of methods of feeding and breeding. They grow rapidly in size, but do not lay on fat like the lard types. Their large size, with long and deep bodies, indicates their bacon producing ability and capacity to easily carry large litters. The boar shown is a good specimen of the Tamworth.

FIELDS and L. M. POLLARD Managers nant animals do well only when abundant opportunity for exercise is allowed. The general tone and vigor of the mother is reflected in the offspring. The better the general health and condition of the dam the stronger and more vigorous the young. Range on pasture is perhaps the best of all. Allow the sows to follow cattle for awhile, but be sure to remove them when they tend to become clumsy and heavy. Scatter the feed over the ground, such as sheaf oats, soy bean hay, etc., and let the sows gather it. Feed on the side of the field opposite the sleeping bunks. Allow hay in racks, the eating at which is conducive to light exercise. Shut the sows from the houses in the middle of the day rather than allow them to huddle up and snooze peaceably. Schemes to induce exercise cost little, yet the returns are considerable. Colored Millinery Store Warmth, dryness, ventilation and sunlight are the essentials of an ideal hog house. Such conductive conditions can be secured with a little forethought. Good dry bedding is needed and to be kept dry must be changed regularly. Laxativeness of the bowels is highly desirable, as costiveness is a menace. Plenty of exercise combined with laxative feeds such as tankage, oilmeal, bran, alfalfa, hay, etc. will largely solve the problem. However, if it does not a week before farrowing an emergency remedy of an ounce of epsom salts per hundred pounds of hog will considerably.—Professor J. M. Eyvard, Iowa Station. The Horse's Stable.
