REVIVAL OF AMERICAN SHIPPING

The good work which Congress did
in admitting to American registry
two steamships of the Inman Line,
providing there. were built in this
country two more steamships of equal
capacity, is being followed up by
bill to allow the Pacific Steamship Co.,
90 per cent Of whose stockholders are
Americans, to register the steamship
China under like provisions. Another
bill has also been introduced to allow
a new steamship company, that is to
be organized in this country by Aus
tin Corbin, of New York, to buy for
eign built vessels of certain capacity
and admit to American registry pro-
vided they build an eqnal number in
this country. This seems to be giving
new impetus to the shipping and
ship-building industries in this coun-
try. 1t is said the Inman Line will
build several new ships besides the
two required by law, and if the pro-
posed new line is inagurated, it is
probable the greater portion of it's
ships will be of American build.
These ships are not to engage in the
coastwise trade. Also, in case of war
they are to become the property of the
United States, and will make most
effective fleet in destroying commerce.
1t is said that the revival of our
shipping interests under these meas
ures is causing much alarm in Eng
land, and fears are entertained that
should it meet with the same success
our industrial interests have, it will be
but few years before American COM
merce will sweep the seas.

THE SOUTHERN FLOODS.

The people who live along. the lower
Mississippi and Missouri rivers are
being treated to their annual flood
again. This year it is somewhat late,
and they were beginning to congratu-
ulate themselves that all danger from
flood this season had passed away,
when the rainy spell came upon us,
and the worst flood for years is the
result. The flood of waters is burst
ing the levees and spreading destruc-
tion and death as it passes out over
the country. Millions of dollars worth
of property are being swept away and
the savings of years disappear in an
hours time.
Year after year this experience is
gone through with to agreater or less
degree. Millions have been spent to
keep the waters within bounds by the
aid of levees, but to no avail. Modern
engineering has so far failed to erect
barrier that will withstand the as
sault of the elements. Strange it is
that with the amount of vacant terri
tory that has existed in this country,
that these lands along the lower Mis-
sissippi should have been occupied,
but they attracted attention because
of their fertility, and the annual over
flow has continued to increase their
richness, and so man has taken his
chances with the elements, and at
times it looks as though the elements
would get the better of him.
But this year he must needs suffer
more than usual owing to the lateness
of the season, and it's interference
with his crops. Serious as the situa-
tion is it increases as time lapses and
the rain continues. Not only is this
true of the cotton belt along the low
er river, but also of the entire corn
belt. May is two thirds gone and as
yet no corn is planted, whereas the
major portion of the crop should have
been in. 70 those with whom the
corn crop is one of the principal items
the outlook is indeed gloomy: but
they can only hope that the weather
will soon change for the better and
that Jupiter Pluvius will allow them
to get in their crops before it is too
late.

CATARRH SUFFERERS.
Here is Something of Interest to You.

Chronic catarrh is by far the most
prevalent disease in the United
States, at least one person out OF
three is in some degree affected by it..
Probably the most common seat of
the disease is in some parts of the air
passages, viz, nose, throat, larynx,
bronchial tubes and lungs. Chronic
catarrh. however, is by no means con-
fined to these parts; for the stomach,
bowles, kidneys, and pelvic organs.are
frequently affected by it.
The treatment for chroni catarrh,
wherever located, consists of, first,
local treatment, which includes gar
giles, sprays, douches, inhalents, snuff,
cream, suppositories and atomized
fluids. These remedies are useful on
ly as palliatives. They can never eff
feet permanent cure.
The treatment of catarrh consists,
second, of the proper regulation of
food and drink, and is very impor-
tant item in the treatment of any
case.
The third item in the treatment of
catarrh, is the regulation of the bodi-
ly habits, as to clothing, exercise,
cleanliness and sleep.
The fourth and most important
item, without which all other efforts
will be fruitless, is the proper intern
al medication. The only medicine
which can always be relied upon to do
this work is Pe-ru-na. The medicine
can now be obtained at nearly all
the drug stores in the United states,
accompanied by complete directions
for use.
Any one desiring to become &C
quainted with the details of'the treat
ment of catarrh in each of the four
items above enumerated, should
write the Peruna Drug Manufacture
ing Co. of Columbus, Ohio, for copy
of The Family Physician No. 2. This
book also gives cause and cure of la
grippe, coughs, colds, bronchitis and
consumption. Sent free to any ad-

The Evergreen Blackberry.

Ihis plant is native of northern
latitude of North America, and de-
rlves its name from the nature of the
plant, it being an EVERGREEN, cover
ed with beautiful, green fern-like
leaves at all seasons of the year. This
TACT demonstrates that it is hardy
ana Will thrive in any climate. either
North or South.
Ihe growth of the Evergreen is I'M
ike any other blackberry, sending
forth numerous vines from single
root. The vines grow similar to the
grape and attain a growth of from Is
to 20 feet year.
The Evergreen will thrive and pro-
duce abundantly without cultivation:
the roots penetrating the soil deeper
than the blackberries, thus having
more moisture.
AS this plant is an evergreen (BEING
COVERED WITH FOLIAGE AT ALL
TIMEs) and attains such an enormous
growth, the vines can be trained to
almost any size and shape. Conse-
quently it is ORNAMENTAL as well as
PROFITABLE.
In growing this plant for the fruit
each root should have from to 6
vines only; and these vines should not
be allowed to grow more than 10 to II
feet long. This pruning will produce
larger berry, which could also be
more readily picked. In growing it
as an ornamental bush allow all vines
to grow, and prune to shape and size
| desired.
Inc EVERGREEN BLACKBERRY pro-
duces fruit after the vines have one
years growth (which is the case with
all berrieS). The vines DO NOT DIE
BACK EACH YEAR, like other black
berries, but produce fruit year after
year, the same as the grape vine, and
they also require pruning and a trel-
lis similar to the grape.
The EVERGREEN BLACKBERRY is a
very large, sweet and finely favored
berry; LARGER and SWEETER THAN
ANY OTHER KNOWN BLACKBERRY. 1t
rlpens about the same time as the
common blackberry, but the vines are
covered with berries and blossoms
during the summer, until the first
frosts in the fall destroy the last crop of
berries; thus the Evergreen produces
frult from one to two months later
than any other blackberry. The yield
is enormous, and vines from three
roots at two years old will produce
sufficient berries for all purposes for
any family.

is NEEDING THE LESSON.

The reports from the South state
that the cotton planters are planting
less cotton and paying more attention
to other lines of farm products this
spring In other words the planters
of the South are entering upon the
system of diversified farming. If the
great crop of cotton last season and
its low price for the past six months
or more has been the cause of this
move, then the lesson, though Sc
we're one, has not been without avail.
The Southern planter has always
looked upon cotton as king, and re-
garded the cultivation of other crops
as beneath his dignity, often not pro-
ducing enough of other crops to meet
his own consumption. But he is
learning from bitter experience that
this is poor policy, and is now turning
his attention to the raising of those
products which he has heretofore pur-
chased.
But it is doubtful if the failure of re-
alizing a profit from the cotton crop
has been the only cause that has de-
veloped the change. The South is
entering upon manufacturing era,
and the farmers in the vicinity of the
new industries have had chance to
see that there is far more profit in di-
versifying their crops, than in follow
ing any one staple. They have found
out what the Northwest learned
some time ago, that to stake their en-
tire dependence upon one particular
crop, was not exhibiting good business
sense. The raising of cotton as a sole
crop has impoverished many sections
of the South, just as the raising of
wheat impoverished portions of the
Northwest, and they will find an i'm
provement in their condition upon
making the change.
The Northwest has improved its
condition with it's Investigation of
crops, because this has led it to en-
courage the building up of various
industries in it's midst, and so Great
ing an army of consumers at it's very
door to take it's products, hence it can
raise at profit many kinds of pro-
duce which cannot be shipped any
great distance, because of their
bulky nature.
A purely agricultural country CAN
not command the prosperity that can
be enjoyed by one which diversifies
it's Industries, and has it's army of
consumers at home. If we were to
follow the advice of Gladstone, and
raise more and cheaper cereals and
let England do the manufacturing,
we would soon find ourselves in the
condition of the Southern planter
with his cotton.

THE action of the late William
Astor in leaving his entire estate of
sixty-fve or more millions to his son,
John Jacob Astor, thereby practically
disinheriting the rest of his children,
is being more or less criticised in all
quarters. This is the English and
European style of bequeathing large
fortunes and is un-American in every
respect. But it is a course that is
being settled upon by number OF
the richest families of this country,
and it is custom which ought to be
interfered with by law. The gaining
of wealth in itself is not dangerous
feature of our institutions. The dan
ger comes in when it is handled as in
the case of the AstOrs. Undoubtedly
as the country grows older the ten
dency will be to keep the great for
tunes together, and the oldest son
will profit at the expense of the rest
of the family, and the custom will
naturally spread to the less wealthy
classes. 1t is an un-American prac-
tice that should be discouraged be-
fore it's evils are too firmly fastened
upon the nation.

Shaksspeare's plays, he did not so sue
coed in making the world so believe,
