50 far as the adjustment of cot
ton culture from Tennessee, we fully
endorse the sentimeniof our Bolivar
correspondent. We believe, in fact,
predicated upon the success Of other
neighb,r;ng states, that there is no
question Of he good poli@y. Look
at the farms Of NJ est tennessee,
the hiels serried with gullies, lands
worn out before the stumps are rot
ten, and ask the reason. The ,th-
swer is cotton"
Cotton requires absolutely clean
culture. The ground has no lelirt
even from weeds Ke.t dry, hot
and unshadcd it taxes but a few
years to deprive it of its fertility.
The lands Of Wesi Tennessee are, as
rule, full It sand, hence wash easily
and the track Of the pillow soon be-
cones the belief gully. This state
exists all over the south, especially
~ the sandy sections. Cotton does
not belong to our latitude II grows
better south of us, and our lands are
not adapted "a it. i the farmers
would devote themselves TO grain,
grass and stock, they would find a
remunerative market close by il
the cotton belt. So long as they
adhere TO cotton, they must them
selves pay all the proceeds Of their
cotton crops to those raise grain sn
stoe, w tn the change diff T
ence would snon be seen in the fac,
of the country. Instead of the
picture of worn-olt Fl ldS and abs
eoned farms, we would have a vas
expanse Of waving grain fields ans
green pastures smiling in the SUI
with large herds browsing over
them-a pastoral scene dear to the
heart Of every man. Convert Wes
Tennessee into bluegrass region
aud we would have one of the low

IA very much"
c. z. Dupler. aged thirty -four years, Of
Equality, Illinois, had been affected with
chronic catarrh which he first discov-
cred six years ago. In succession he lost
his smell, taste and hearing. The disease
WAS so malignant that it not only attacked
the softer parts. but DESTROYED the bOny
partition of the nose and seriously affected
the external parts. He could only hear a
watch ticking by holding it close to his
ear. He suffered intense pain in the nose.
from which green, dry clots Of offensive
edor fell. In this condition he presented
himself to DR.. Hartman several months
ago. He can now hear = watch eight
inches from his right and six inches from
his left ear. His taste and smell are again
returning, and the external part OF the
nose is quite well. Few more grateful
patients ever left a physicians Office than
Mr.. Dupler. lie said, = Why in the
world was PERUNA not prescribed tor

Cramps of the stomach.
We have the privilege Of reporting the
following case. Those similarly affected
can get the name and address of DIR.
Hartman. The lady does not want her
name in the papers. For year, or years,
(the writer does not remember the length
OF time,) this lady had cramps, the most
fearful, Of the stomach, every day and
night, which would be followed by that
terrible weakness, which was something
/ wonderful" The suffering and distress
! OF this lady was indescribable and almot
uncomfortable. After all the physician
and medicines had failed, and all hope
had almost fed. DR.. Hartman was con-
suited, and from the first day of taking
+ his PRRUNA, the cramps and all bad
7 feeling left her, and now for over month
has been entirely free from every symp-
tom. A more thankful patient no doctor
ever had.

The Boys Ev..nInga.


Where the boys spend their even

AL classes, and the time when ever,

might do is then comparatively

associations
The rule commonly gwen is to

good. Bat simply to carry it out in
the abstract Is not suficie t We
must study the boys dispositions
and tastes, and be governed by
these in making home attractive to
them.
Most boys are of a social nature.
and must have companions. Let
them have suitable ones at their own
home The parents need not think
it beneath their dignity to help fill
tins want. Join with them in some
thing that interests them; it may be
something Instructive at the same
time. Get their confidence IN child
hood, aud retain it. Furnish them
wit interesting books aud games,
taking care that these are of the
right kind, Read aloud to them,
and get them to read to YOU. Con
verse freely on a variety Of topics,
not by tbrusting forward your own
opinion on every occasion, but by
drawing out, cultivating and ex-

When all this, and much more
has been done, do not expect or try
