No honest appetite ever rejected an

most concentrated shape. Whole ma
tons Of mankind rarely touch any
other animal food. Kings eat them
plain as readily as do the humble
tradesman. After the battle of Muhl-

meal with his burggrafs and great
captains he determined on a piece of
luxury-.one egg to every man and
two to the excellently valiant Schwep-
perman." Far more than fsh-for it
is watery diet -eggs are the schol-
ar's fare. They contain phosphorus
which is brain food, and sulphur,
which performs variety of functions
in the economy. And they are the
best nutriment for children, for in a
compact form they contain everything
that is necessary to the growth of the
youthful frame. Eastern Farmer.

Justice to the Country Editor.

It is regarded as something quite
smart for metropolitan newspaper
scribblers to sheer at country editors.

crush his rural brother. It is true
that some fools and some knaYes edit
country journals, but as rule these
provincial editors are hard working.
shreWd, fair minded, and influential
men. They come nearer representing
public sentiment than their city breth-
rem, because they are closer to the
people. The metropolitan press owes
its distinction chiefly to men who have
been trained in country newspaper
offices. In fact, feWm are properly
equipped to even attempt to represent
sentiment in this Republic who have
not lived in the country. SO much for
those who sheer at the ssrural rooster"

Leave the DIRT Out.

a man has no business to tell to
the readers of his newspaper what he
would hesitate to tell, if there were
need in his own home circle. There is
a part of the divorce court record
which properly belongs to the newspa-
per reporter and the public. If adul-
terry is the ground of divorce, report to
that effect is legitimate, as is also all
else that tends to clear presentation
of the merits of the case. But sensa-
ton and dirt lugged in because
they are essential to an understanding

cause they are sensational and dirty,

There is now living in Pickens

AVOID being conscripted and sent to
