That's the way you feel after one or
two of DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
have done their work. You feel
we'll, instead of bilious and consti-
pated; your sick headache, dizzi-
ness and indigestion are gone. It's
done mildly and easily, too. You
don't have to feel worse before you
feel better. That is the trouble
with the huge, old fashioned pill.
These are small, sugar-coated, cas-
lest to take. One little Pellets a
laxative, three to four are cathartic.
They regulate and cleanse the liver,
stomach and bowels quickly, but
thoroughly. They're the cheapest
pill, sold by druggists, because you
only pay for tie good you get.
They're guaranteed to give salts

Among the most just demands OF
the Farmers Alliance-very generally
made in their conventions and plat
forms-is that the mortgage indebted
ness should be deducted from the tax
on realty The owner of the land,
who is in fact the one who holds the
mortgage, should bear the burden Of
taxation so far as his interest relates
to the whole That farmers have
some justsreason to complain OF un-
equal taxation Is a matter that will
not admitsof any discussion Land is
in sight, and cannot be hidden from
the assessors as stocks and bonds can
be. There are other taxes which many
farmers bear that are more onerous
than any imposed by tie legal asses
sors. The Country Gentleman well
says: Decay and Rust are a firm OF
assessors in constant activity all over
the land. It is their delight to levy
upon farm implements, and they let
nothing escape from the inexpensive
shoe to the costly harvester and thrash
er. You cannot hide a mower in the
most obscure corner of the fence nor
leave it in the far back lot, with the
least bit of hope that it may escape
their attention. &c Chickasaw Messen-
ger.

LIFE.
BY META sAppHo LIrrELL.

BY META sAPPHo LIrTELI.
A flower of life! If my soul could bloom,
Into flower, from out of its gloom;
T'would bloom, among flowers in spotlcss
array,
A tiger lily, spotted for aye.
Oh the years, that have taken their flight,
Speeding so fast with foot steps so light,
Have left no footprints behind, except
On my hearts folded petals, that slept
And yet, yet, tho cannot recall,
Through years that silently, sadly, fall,
One hour, but what t'would reflect q day,
That had vanished in sadness away.
T'is with bitterness, that would fee,
From these lone hours, to uncertainty.
T'is with sadness, and an unshed tear,
would leave these scenes, 30 dark, so
drear,
That have nestled SO long to my heart;
To act, in more amusing part.
Oh, the years as they vanish away,
Lifting the curtains of life's sad play,
Disclose only vain hopes TO the sight,
And bring nothing, in their ceaseless fight.
Nothing, nothing each long bitter year,
Has vanished away, just as the tear,
That creeps from the heart saddened and
piea, ll "a g &c sFs know thatit did appear.

Thursday, thanksgiving day, was OBJ
served here by the closing Of public Of
fees, public Schools and the hold
ing of services in the churches. The
interior of one church was beautifully
decorated with a profusion Of all the
available fruits of the earth, that are
good to be eaten without being cooked.
Such sight is pleasant to the eye, es-
pecially to the eyes of the owners of the
fruits; but any hungry, penniless way
farer that might have gone into that
church on this occasion, would have
felt like Tantalus in the garden OF Hes
perides. 1t is good to have something
to be thankful for; even if nothing
more than the traditional turkey. The
turkey crop is short this year, and the
pressure OF farm work has kept that
from coming to market. So some with
money to buy had to do without the
turkey. One of Shakespeare's royal
