Divide Sahara simeon by Bo-
real blast, multiply the result by an
appetite that could devour the logs
out of smoke house, add a pair of
blankets and quilt every night,
and subtract $40 per month from
your pocket book, and you have the
mean temperature of the Cayce hills.
Thermometers here are superhuous.
You don't have time to look at it
during the day, if you keep up with
the amusements, and at night it
draws back in it's shell so that a
search warrant with a patent head
light couldn't find the slippery stuff.
Every man is the architect of his
own temperature here. You can
play croquet and quarrel yourself
into white heat until the words
fall out of your mouth like roasted
potatoes, and then you can get I'M
der the shadow of the hills and
drink water until it oozes out at the
ends of your hair and hangs in
icicles all about your fevered-im-
agination. Pity we can't get Y
over from the Station to write us up.
He doesn't need cooling of. how
ever, for E. V. keeps him crowded
down to zero. He has been off fish
ing, down in Hickman, caught bad
cold and Watchdog, and came back
looking like a zulu, they say.
Pulaski is largely represented
here, and we have introduced Pulas.
XII ways here until everything is
revolutlonized except the neighbors'
State debt opinions. You have
worked that matter well, as far as
this vicinity goes, and although 1
differ with you on that very impor
tant question, 1 am glad to see such
an exemplification of the power of
the press, though l regret it was
not exercised in the other direction.
But there is enough of your space
wasted now on this question. Well
Offset you down in Giles hand
somely.
This section has had abundant
rams recently, just in time to save
the corn from almost total failure,
they say.
spent one rainy morning in Mr..
Cayce's labratory and saw several
of his patents and incomplete In
ventions. What a wonderful man
1 consider his the finest inventive
mind in America. His continuance
to utilize gravity and make it act
upon itself and thereby increase its
own power, is a total overturning
of accepted theories and will COM
pei philosophers to rewrite their
books. Another machine will make
a tubful of water, standing perfectly
still, do the work of a half mile
mill tail, He has fifteen patents,
all upon practical ideas anG for act
ual mechanical use, besides many
others in embryo. But why am /
for Williamson counJians to
read in praise of a man they know
30 well? If some of your monied |
men would venture, there is not the |
remotest shadow of a doubt that |
colossal fortunes would be the re-
suit. Whether they do or not, how
ever, makes little difference to the
great inventor, except as to time.
The mighty genius that could bring |
such mighty ideas into mechanical
being will surely invent the means
10 develop them. Mark it? Wealth
not only awaits him, but his name
will be as familiar in school philos-
ophy as Newton's or Koepler's, and
his fame will go down the ages.
And how richly will he deserve it.
Not only a good citizen, a kind
friend, philanthropic, Christian gen.
but a great public bene-
factor.
We have had from forty to sixty
visitors all the season, and they |
continue to go and come. Our host
Mr.. Cayce is unremitting in his en-
deavors to make every one fat and
happy. 1 have fully tested the wa
ters here several seasons and know
from experience and observation
that they are greatly beneficial in
nearly all kinds of complaints.
When persons come here they are |
without good appetite,
but few days drinking Of this wa
ter gives them a yoracity that is
alarming to a hotel keeper. An ii
we had last week in your
young Mr.. David Campbell. He |
came here SO decrepit that you
could not hear him smile more than
seven hundred yards, and in two
days the walters had worn all the
hair from his head handing him bis
cults and fried chicken as fast as he
could put it where it would do the
most good.
The mail is about starting and
must draw to a close. Why don't
you come out and see US, or send
as a speaker? We could give HIM
A good audience. Your side Of the
5O-4 is not holding its own here. 1t
may be that 1 will not get home in
time to vote and 1 am endeavoring
10 get some one to vote for me here.
You had better attend to this.
