A Wonder Worker.

Mr.. Frank Huffman, a young man
of Burlington, Ohio, states that he
had been under the care of two prom
lnent physicians, and used their treat
ment until he was not able to get
around. They pronounced his case to
be Consumption and incurable. He
was persuaded to try DR.. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption, Conghs
and Colds and at that time was not
able to walk across the st9et withoul
resting. He found, before he had US
ed half of dollar bottle, that he was
much better; he continued to use it
and is to-day enjoying good health.

that furniture factory can be started
for S33, 800. Others thought that the
sum could be reduced. There was a
general desire to proceed at once to or

decided to wait until the manufac-

needed is competent man to take
charge of the factory and handle the
business. The necessary capital can
doubtless be raised in this city.

last week, but became dissatisfied for
some reason and had his father
take him home. BY inquiry we learn
that he was given only the kindest
treatment and tenderest care possible.
The report that is being circulated is
either exaggerated or is utterly false,
and is calculated to do the hospital
harm. If they believe that there is
cause for complaint, an investigation
should be asked for, and we have no
doubt but that a little inquiry on
their part would show that the man.
agement of the hospital could not be
improved.

BETTER OFF.

The South is less in debt
now than at any time since
the war closed, it is said.
Southern bankers report toI
to the Baltimore Mauutactu-
rer' Record that the farmers
are in better financial condi-
tion as a Glass than ever be-
fore. The curtailing OF eXpen-
ses has brought this about.
T here has been a lessening Of
the volume of trade, and a
consequent reduction of in
debtedness. The monetary
stringency has forced people
to be more economical. The
Record publishes six large pa
ges ofspecial letters from ban
kers in the South. 1t is re-
ported that the low price of
cotton III the spring caused
planters to pay more atten-
tion to raising their own food
supplies, and the South will
probably be less dependent
upon other sectious for corn
and wheat than ever before.
1t is estimated that the grain
crops OF the South this year
will aggregate nearly one hun
dred millions ofbushels more
than in 1900, and this, add
ed to large yields of fruits
and vegetables, will keep at
home at least $75,000,0
that last year went North
and West for food stuff. This
will fully offset the low price
Of cotton, and should cotton
advance it would be a clear
gain to the Southern farm
ing interests. We hope the
price OF cotton will advance.
The farmers must study their
own interests more and learn
to diversity. Reduce the acre.
