The Work of n Good Man.

The works of a good man live after
him. He enjoys the blessings and dis
tinctions they entitle HIM to in this
world, and build for him a home in
eternity. 1t is the mission of every
living soul to do some good to benefit
humanity in some way, Notwithstanding
this fact, how few look upon life in this
manner.
A few now and then, here and there,
realize this great responsibility, and
devote their lives to the salvation of
their fellowmen. One of the most
conspicuous examples of this character
in Atlanta, is DIR. b. NJ. Woolley. He is
a man noted for his Christian integrity
and fair dealing, being an old and highly
esteemed citizen of Atlanta, and having
built up a reputation among his home
folks as a specialist in the cure of the
opium and whisky habits that is of the
highest character. Although he has had
years of experience in the treatment of
these dreadful diseases, he is yet an
ardent student, and studies the science
of his profession with as much diligence
rs If he were only just entering the pro-
fession.
DIR. Woolley, unlike a great many
specialists, treats what Is called the
opium and whisky habits as disease,
affirming that they are strictly diseases,
and nine times out of ten the sufferers
are not directly responsible for their
condition. The success he has had i'll
this line has been something phenomenal.
He has cured patients in every state and
territory in the Union, and has treated
cases in London, France, Germany,
Canada and Mexico.
Opium and whisky are two of the
most powerful, and when improperly
used, the most life-destroying medicines
Ill the world, and to know how to extract
or eradicate the effects of these drugs
from the human body is an art to which
DIR. Woolley can justly lay claim. AS
evidence he simply refers to his hun
dreds of patients who have been thor
oughly ana soundly cured. Being man
OF scholarly attainments, he has pre-
pared work on opium and whisky, and
their effects upon the human constltu-
ton. In his work he has testimonials OF
people whom he has successfully treated
and permanently cured. This book Will
be mailed free of charge to your address
If you will only send DIR. Woolleya letter
asking for it. If you are not afflicted
with the opium or whisky disease, prob
ably you know of a friend or have "a rela-
tive who is. Ii you will kindly send
their names or inform them OF DR.. Wool
iey's ability, he will take pleasure III
sending them any information they NAV
desire. Address Dr. b. M. Wooney,

postage on the issue of January 13,
amounted at third-class rates, to $500,
besides the labor of attaching SO, 800

second-class rates the proper charge for
postage would be S69.72, making differ
ence in cost of mailing this one issue of

Rowell 4 Co. are paying this enormous

OF course it is outrageous that the law
is so ambiguous that the post-ofiice au-
thorities themselves can blunder in con-
STRUNG 1t, as they do according to the
whim of the person in charge of the
matter, and it ought be changed inlme-
iiately in justice to those compelled to
suffer by such am Equity. If Printers

The leaders of the Peoples party
have missed great opportunity in
shaping the platform which WAS
adopted last week at st. Louis. Ii
the disreputable wing of the Demo
cratic party should gain control OF
the organization and nominate a man
like Hill third party would have
very good chance to poll large
Democratic vote. But to gain the
support of free trade Democrats a
third party must stand on a free trade
platform, which the politicians who
control the Peoples party will not
allow. The same old and exploded
financial schemes come to the front
again, but there is not one word on
the tariff question, which shows that
the men who now control the new
party are after all nothing but set
of would be machine politicians who
will not allow principles to interfere
with their political ambitions.-Jtls-

The result of the supervisorship
elections last week in New York State
and some comments from newspapers
on this Republican tidal wave, show
ing the gains, is an unexpected revela-
ton of the change in public opinion.
1t shows a more marked displacement
of political conditions than the Demo
cratic tidal wave of 1890 did. In the
thirty.nine counties that have held
elections the Republican supervisors
have increased from 426 to 500, and
the Democratic supervisors have
dropped from 352 to 253. There is
no mistaking the significance of these
figures. They mean that the people
have determined to give a scathing
verdict on the methods of Hill and
his gang Drunk with his successes,
he imagined that the people would
stand by him, nomatter how dastardly
the methods he might employ. This
rebuke from the polls comes just in
time to put a damper on Hills
Southern delegate tour and strip him
of the false feathers in which he has
been strutting.-Phila. Press.

HERE ale few items culled from
a daily paper yesterday. They are
OF special interest to the devotees of
McKinleyism: "Notices were posted
yesterday in the three rolling mills of
Lebanon, Pa, of a reduction of wages
OF l29 per cent, to go into effect on
March 21. The Brooke Iron Com
pany, at Birdsboro', Pa, has posted
notices in its large pudding mill
reducing puddlers' wages from 1926
to So per ton, and all other employees
in proportion. A 10 per cent reduc-
tion in the wages Of the puddlers
employed at the Vesuvius Iron Works
of Moorhead Bros. & Co., at Sharps-
burg, Pa, will go into effect to-day,
and similar reduction was ordered
by A. Leggett & Co., machinists and
axle manufacturers, of Allegheny,
Pa" Isn't it interesting, when one
remembers that these reductions are
made in the heaviest protected
industry in the world, and in tie
greatest Republican State in the
union? Throw up your hats, work
ingmen, and shout for protection !
There is nothing like it.

1T is reported that it is the inten-
tion of the government to establish at
the Worlds Fair grounds complete
postoffice, equal in capacity to that
required by city of 100000 or more
inhabitants, and to operate it, not
only duling the Fair, but for several
months previous to the opening and
after the closing. A government
postoffice inspector is now on tn
grounds perfecting plans and esti'
mates. 1t is believed that the number
of exhibitors will be between $50, 600
and 175,000. To these mail will be
delivered hourly At a rough esti
mate, this postoffice will require about
300 employees, and entail an expense
of about S250,000 on the part of the
government.

About two years ago Messrs. Geo. p.
Rowell q Co., of New York, the pub
fishers of Rowel's Newspaper Directory,
and several other publications of great
value to concerns wishing to do business
with the newspapers, started very
unique weekly, both in form az MOI
and name (PriRters Ink). 1t was new
idea all through, and like new ideas gen
orally, required large capital, much ex-
perlence and utmost push to make it 90.
The publishers had to educate people
and make market for the publication.
10 what extent they succeeded may be
judged by the fact that its editions now
exceed 10000, and the business probably

publication published once a week, is

and cannot be admitted to second-class
rates, but as third-class matter. The

THE consolidation of New York,
Brooklyn and suburban towns is being
agitated again. The population OF
the city of New York, according to
the State census, is 1,SO0,S91
Brooklyn's population, according to
the same census, is 955, $40. The
metropolitan district" including
New York, Kings County, Staten
island, Jersey City, Hoboken, Long
island City, Yonkers and Mount
vernon, contains a population of 3,
112,950 II the entire territory, ex
tending Is miles in every direction
from City Hall, be accepted as the
true limits of "New York." the popu
lation of this district would aggregate
upwards of 100000. But this terri.
tory cannot be expected to be all put
under one municipal government, as
it includes portions of New jersey
The new city will probably be called
Manhattan. The scheme is opposed
only by a few Brooklyn politicians,
who do not like the idea of being
swallowed by Tammany. The pro
posed consolidation provides for q
union of only part of the territory
If this consolidation goes through the
united city will have population OF
over 1858, 800.

every particle of the food. Tho Stats
need not be very near together. The
trough is mounted on little wooden
wheels-disks sawed from board, and
fitted on aXles of the same material.
Both aXles are screwed firmly to the
under side of the trough. In turning,
it is easy to raise one end and swing it
on the other wheels. A cord 90 draw
it by is attached to either end.
To put the food through between the

doing this my friend has two fiat
boxes, one of which is seen in Fig. 2,
each half as long as the feed car.
These slide into it from either end and
fit loosely. They are drawn ont, filed
and pushed back into place before the
car is rolled among the birds. Said
the owner: my fowls were at first
badly frightened by the rolling trough,
but they soon came to love it, and
cling to it as dear friend. As soon as

FEEDING EXPERIMENTS.
Rations of Turnips and Grain for Fatten-
ing Sheep.

Rations of Turnips and Grain for Fatten-
ing Sheep.
The object of this experiment was
to present an object lesson on the
profits of the liberal feeding Of lambs
that are intended for the market. Two
lots of sheep and lambs were fed in
radically different manner. The ration
of lot was intended to be an intensive
ration, or copy of the method that is
used for forcing the growth of early
lambs On the other hand, lot was
fed in a manner similar to that which
is adopted by many farmers, who con-
slider the sheep an animal that can be
successfully fed on the refuse of a barn
without the addition of very much
grain. The sheep of lot 1 received
what good hay they would consume
and pound of grain each per day.
Besides this, the pen was SO arranged
that the lambs had access at all times
to a supply of mixed grain. The sheep
of lot were fed one-half pound grain
per head daily with what good hay
they would eat. The lambs of this lot
were allowed no grain excepting what
they ate from the mothers ration. The
following is a summary of the results
of the experiment:
1. Two lots OF sheep, each contain
ing ten sheep and twelve lambs. were
fed for three months.
2. One lot of sheep Got y ate 3, 900
pounds of hay and 1,434 of mixed grain.
The other lot Got p ate 5000 pounds of
hay and $50 pounds of mixed grain. Lot
1 ate, therefore. 9s4 pounds more of
grain than lot 1.
3. During the three months the sheep
| of lot ! lost 104 pounds in weight, and
| lot 2, 156 pounds, difference in favor
of lot of So pounds. The lambs of lot
weighed 545 pounds, and of lot 2, 364
pounds, difference in favor of lot OF
/ 49, pounds.
| 4. The value of the lambs in lot !
| was S54. so, and in lot 2, S21.S4, a differ
ence of $50. 66 in favor of liberal feed
| ing, and net gain above extra cost OF
grain of S22. AZ.
5. The extra amount of grain fedt c
lot was sold to the sheep at the rate
| of S71.5O per ton.-Maine Exp't Station

MARBLES In Cattle.

C. V. Porter, writing in the Wiscon-
sin Farmer, says: I'm March, 1890.
examined about forty cows backs for
MARBLES or grubs and obtained over 100.
1 squeezed them out and crushed them.
In 1891, repeated the operation on the
same herd and got twenty grubs. To-
day examined thirty-five of the same
cows and found not a grub. The young
stock away at pasture last summer Is
well supplied with them, but the cows
and heifers remaining at home are free
from these expensive pests. I am thus
led to believe that a farm may be rid of
them with little trouble. / now kill
them by snearing grease over their
breathing holes or by squeezing them

ORNAMENTS FOR THE HAIR.
Odd-S{laped Combs, JeHeled FIIlets, and
Metal Bow Knots.

Odd-Shaped Combs, JeEeIed FfIIets, and
Metal Bow Knots
There is a certain feminine coQuetry
about ornamenting the hair, end there
may be just as much character display
ed in the use of the trifies and baubles
as in the rest of ones personal adorn-
ment; their becomingness lies very
much in the degree OF artistic taste
shown in their selection
Long, twisted, and odd-shaped shell
combs and the finely traced and fligree
gold ones are the fashion now. Both
styles are produced in many shapes and
in the cheaper imitation materials, like
French gilt, enamel, silver plating and
horn, IN some cases quite difficult to
distinguish from the genuine Both
are reproductions of the Louis XVI
styles, and as shell in its various shapes
has been worn very much longer than
metal, preference is given to the latter
As bonnet supports in carriage and
visiting use, nothing at present Is more
jaunty and rich than the gold combs
They may have shell teeth or they may
be of gold. Some are jeweled and
others are of English sterling silver,
but they are not very large. The more
fashionable shapes are irregular. On
the smell COtllDS are dppEOprl6Dc
and useful in securing bonnets and hats
The newest shapes are the long, twisted,
irregular triangles of plain solid she'll
or ecaille, or those with one or both
rims and teeth of solid shell and the
rest the most lace-like open patterns of
shell carving.
Jeweled hairpins are less in vogue
than heretofore, and in their place may
be seen jeweled quilts in gold, bronze
and silver, with jeweled eyes, and they
are emphatically not for the street but
for evening coiffures-
The very newest things for evening
adornment are the gold and ieweled
Marguerite, Desdemona and JuHette
fllets, with tiny fringes, that spread
ont like hair net, and are worn across
the back of the couture, or at an angie
on the crown of the head, while Grecian
bandeau or chains of pearls or beads
form the decoration of front and sides
Finally, bow-knots and loops in metal
are perched on long hairpins- They
come in all shades, and for young peo-
pie are coquettish and feminine-N.

EARLY FALL SOWING.

How to Secure a Good Growth Before
Cold Weather Sets In.
The principal advantage in sowing
fall wheat or rye early is that better
opportunity is afforded for the plants
to make Il good growth before cold,
freezing weather sets in.
There is usually no object in seeding
until the soil is in a good condition to
insure a quick termination. The soil
to do this must be reasonably well pre-
pared as the better the preparation the
better the termination. But at this
season in addition to good prepare
ton there must be sufficient moisture
in the soil to help. A certain amount
of moisture is necessary to secure a
good termination with all classes of
seeds and it is often the case that early
in the fall there will not be sufficient
amount to induce termination. OF
course when every condition is favora-
bic there may be no serious injury
done by sowing the wheat or rye early
even when the soil is too dry to induce
the seed to terminate. But this is not
the best or safest plan, as there is al
ways more or less risk.
OF course where there is a large acre
age there may be circumstances when
this plan may be necessary. But on
the average farm, in a majority of
cases, it Is best to wait until the con-
ditions are favorable and chen push the
seeding as rapidly as possible. With
the soil already prepared for the seed
the work can be pushed along very
rapidly. so that there is often no occa-
sion for sowing when it is reasonably
certain that the seed will not germi-
nate until it rains.
But the best rule generally is to soy
reasonably early, if the conditions Will
admit, so as to secure the best growth
possible in the fall-Prairie Farmer
