- Mrs. John Kelley is vice president
of bank in Atlantis, Ga. 1t is family
bank and represents an estate. Mrs.
Keeley's husband was vice president, but
at his death, which occurred six years
ago, his wife was elected to fill the posi-
ton. Mrs. Keely says: ~ think there
are many positions in banks which could

and wonder that they have not been

In all civilized lands there is an
abundance of doctors. In fact, most re-
gions could spare some of that learned
fraternity. But Russia complains that
she has not enough. Her average is only
one to every 6,O0O of the entire popula-
ton. That would make less than nine
doctors to city like Hartford. In the
villages there is only one physician to
every 80, 900, and in some of the Siberian
and up north localities only one to 120, 900
people.
There is no better tonic at this
time, says noted physician, than a
glass of hot milk slipped slowly, and
taken when fatigued it is far better
"pick-me-up'' than any stimulant
would be. 1t is capital remedy, too,
for restoring color to pale cheeks, and
for rounding out the angles of thin
children. People who fancy that
they cannot drink milk, find that by
slipping it hot and slowly il will agree
with them perfectly.

time. The cylinder revolves at a
moderate rate Of speed, while
the big iron wings" inside of it
remain stationary, the result being that
the peanuts are kept thoroughly STIR
red.
A generation ago most of the pea
nuts consumed in this country were
imported from Africa. The African
goober is small and round, the shell
containing only one kernel usually.
The American "ground nut" is simply
the African nut modified by conditions
of soil and climate in the United
States. Plant our peanut in Africa,
and before long it reverts to the origi'
nal African type, from which it was
produced. It has been said that the
negroes brought the frstpeanuts hith-
er.
Now the American nuts have driv-
en- the African nut out of our markets
altogether, and the latter are regarded
as curiosity here. Most Of the pea
nuts grown on the dark continent are
sent to France through the port Of
Marseilles to be pressed for oil. The
finest Of all COOLERS are the Spanish,
which are considered a fancy article,
and are mostly consumed by confec-
tioners. They cost 20 cents pound,
retail, and are about one-third the size
of ordinary ones. The big nuts are
never so we'll favored as little ones.
Tennessee ground nuts often have five
or six kernels in one shell, but the
meat is rank. In many large cities of
the United States peanuts have be-
| come recognized article of commerce
and are quoted each day on change,
like corn or wheat.
1t appears from what has already
been said that peanuts are extraordl-
nary nutritious, and that, though al
most wholly indigestible raw or roast
ed, when reduced to meal and boiled or
otherwise thoroughly cooked, they are
readily assimilated. Owing to their
low proportion of sugar and starch
they may serve to enlarge in most
welcome degree the bill Of fare Of per
sons under treatment for obesity. In
other words, they are an ideal anti-fat
diet. From two points of view their
value as food is of interest to Ameri-
cans. In the first place, would it be
desirable or practicable to introduce
the meal and grits here? Secondly,
is this new discovery likely to stimu-
late the demand for United States
peanuts? The latter question is like
| " to be answered in the negative, in
asmuch as this kind Of crop can be
grown and gathered in Africa more
cheaply than in this country.
Of course, as matter OF fact, the
peanut is not nut after all. 1t is a
sort of pea-an annual that has to be
planted every year and dies in tie fall.
The blossoms of the plant put forth a
little appendage, which makes its way
into the moist earth and swells out be-
low ground into a pod that has from
one to four peas in it. When they are
ripe they are pulled up, stacked in the
field to dry and finally cleaned and
sorted for market.

President Eliot advises Harvard stu
dents not to study on Sunday, and to
work ten hours on other days, leaving
three for meals, two for exercise, one for

Some students, sad to relate, do all

all the week days, outside of recitation
rooms, wholly in society, exercise and
eating.

- An interesting sight was witnessed
by the visitors at Niagara Falls recently.
It was the annual migration Of the crows
toward the south. This usually occurs
in early winter, but this year for some
unknown reason did not occur until
March 1. The crows passed southwark
by the million, and for two days the air
was black with them and the noise of their
cawing was almost deafening. When
they got to the falls they lit in large mum.
bers on the Ice bridge and set up wild
cawing. The sound echoed against the
walls Of the gorge and made a tremendous
noise. When they were rested they
arose with a loud whirring Of wings and
continued their flight. Many flew into
the falls and were drowned.

A Chapter OF Injustice.

Sylvester Cone, who has just been
pardoned out of the New Hampshire
penitentiary, after serving seventeen
years of a thirty-year sentence, will
begin life again completely wrecked by
the law.
Mr.. Cone is scholarly gentleman, a
Journalist and at one time railway
official of high standing. Eighteen
years ago he purchased beautiful
summer home in the town of Tam
worth, N. a., where he resided with
his wife and baby.
A crowd of idle rufians soon began
to annoy the newcomer because he was
a city man, and finding that he would
not allow them to steal from him or
trespass on his property, they made it
practice to bathe in little pond one
hundred yards from his front door,
and in full view of his family. The
water Was only two feet deep and their
indecent conduct was plainly visible
while their foul language was easily
heard. Cone entreated the vagabonds
to leave him in peace, but they grew
more daring, and one Sunday their or
gies were SO outrageous that in sheer
desperation the prosecuted citizen
rushed into their midst with what he
supposed was an unloaded shotgun,
The gang attacked him with sticks
and stones and pounded him severely;
In the fight the gun was discharged
and the leader of the roughs fell dead.
Cone gave himself up, expecting a
prompt acquittal, but his enemies
agreed upon a story and by fraud and
perjury secured his conviction, and he
was sentenced to thirty years in pris-
on. His pretty cottage was sold to
pay the lawyers and the balance Of the
money was turned over to his wife,
who went to her relatives in Pennsyl-
vania. -.
Now, after seventeen years, this
man is released to find that his wife
some years ago obtained divorce on
the ground that he had been convicted
Of a felony, and then married again,
moving to California. Cone could
have stood anything but this last mis-.
fortune. To find the wife in whose
defense he secured his long and un:
just sentence divorced from him and
married to another was crushing
blow. The case excites general sym
pathy, and it also calls attention to
another horrible chapter Of New Eng,
land justice. The injury suffered by
this innocent prisoner is simply irrep,
arabic, and during the remainder Of
his life he should be pensioned by the
State and everything possible should
be done to brighten the gloom OF hif
declining days. It is one OF the sad
dest cases in the annals Of the courts

given, however. Gen. Kershaw had
detached a few companies from the
right of the 9TH regiment and, taking
command Of them himself, made cir
cult around the summit and managed
to flank the enemy. Our charge was COM
menced at signal agreed on between
him and Col. Williams, whom he left
in charge of the brigade. AS soon as
he had lanked the enemy he ordered
the companies to open an enhlades
fire; this, presume, was the signal
for US to charge the breastworks.
The result of this successful e1pedi-
tion was the capture Of Harper 8 Fer
ry, with 1900 prisoners and large
numbers of small arms and about
thirty brass cannon. Thus you per-
ceive Gen. Kershaw contributed in an
eminent degree to the success OF our
arms in two great battles.
I cannot refrain from mentioning a
little incident that goes to show that
this brave man of war possessed kind
and gentle heart. After getting my
arm attended to by the surgeon, in
doing which he was compelled to use
single in the place of a splint, l
was making my way to some better To-
cality. AS was his habit whenever he
could do so, Gen. Kershaw, accompa-
MED by part of his staff, was looking
after the wounded. Their position
was very bad, situated as many of
them were on or near the mountain
top, where they could get no water,
and he was making every exertion to
have those who could not walk con-
veyed to the foot of the mountain.
AS I was cropping my way along very
slowly he came up to me. | had been
personally known to Gen. Kershaw 2
short time previous to the war, hav
ing several times visited his Office in
Camden with my father; he was then
conducting an estate matter in the
Courts for my father. AS soon as he
approached near enough to discover
my condition he exclaimed "Why,
Holleyman, what's the trouble with
you, my boy ?" I was very weak,
having tainted twice from loss Of
blood before my wound was attended
to and was in condition to excite his
pity. He got off his horse and with
the help of the officers with him plac-
ed me in his saddle, but l could not
endure the jolting Of the horse even
in a walk and I begged him to haveme
taken down. After directing me what
course to pursue he reluctantly left
me. This act of kindness made me
forget my pain and helped me to over
come the difficulties before me.
Gen. Kershaw's conduct since the
war, in view Of the striving for office
on the part of his fellow surviving
officers, is somewhat remarkable. BE
did consent to represent his county in
the State Senate, but further promo
tion he positively refused. With his
war prestige be could have been Gov
ernor Of his State, and could with ease
have gained seat in the United
States Congress. He finally consent
ed to assume the Judicial ermine,
which he voluntarily laid aside short
while before his death. 1t is useless
for me to say anything commendatory
Of his course while Judge. He was.
knightly soul, with heart as gentle
as the gentlest womans.
