For some time the production OF oil In

ABOUT BITTER MILK.

Usually Caused by IIi-ueaIrh and Poor
 Condition of the Blood. Several readers have written com blaming that the milk of their COWS is bitter after standing few hours or a single day and that the feed used is of the best, clean and wholesome. Some of the cows have been in but a few months others will be fresh within three months.
 Cows that have been in but few months, are properly fed, have pure water, free access to all the salt they wish and give milk that is bitter with out being tainted by contact with out side surroundings, may be in ill-health which affects the condition of the blood.
 The best remedy for this trouble if produced by the blood being out of con- dition is to give pound of sulphate of soda (glauber salts) or of sulphate of magnesia (epsom salts). dissolved in warm water, by means of common drenching horn or long-necked bottle; and after this has operated, daily dose of one ounce of hyposulphite of soda may be given with good results, for two weeks
 This latter is readily taken, by most cows, when powdered and sprinl1led over a mess of scalded bran or in other feed.-Western Rural

TRAVELLING LIFE MONOTONOUS
Wrong Idea About Experience ef Sales-
 men Always on the Go.


 People who do not travel are in the habit of speaking of the lives of travel ing men as full of pleasurable excite ment. The travelling men say that 1t IS almost unbearably monotonous, says the Atlanta Constitution.
 q travel the entire south, from Wash ington to Texas said a travelling man to me the other day, ''and am con stantly on the rail, and the monotony of it is making me grow old before my time. I have pretty large territory, but would you believe it if told you that I can wake up at any hour of the night, no matter where 1 am, pull back the curtain of the sleeper, and tell what place tii1o train IS approaching? l know the country so well. The dreary monotony robs it of novelty or interest. I have been over the ground so often that I believe know every forest, ev- cry cotton patch and every crossroad on the entire circuit. The only compensa- tion that travelling man has in social way is in the fact that he meets people in every city that he visits and wher- ever he goes he finds friends. But he is off and away before he has time to enjoy their society. No, it's big mis- take; the travelling mans life is fright fully lonely and monotonous.

yer coin legal tender in payment Of
debts- IL 10 does not mean that u
means nothing. IL is clear that the
states have the right to make these
foreign coins . legal tender. III the
Constitution did not mean that, why
Was this clause put in IL: do not
think the trainers of our Constitution
mean, when they framed this section
tina, the States would ever make nit
ed States coin \ legal tender. for who
could have ever supposed that the
United states would coin money and
then demonetiIe 10. 3ui since the
United states has done SO, i believe
the language of this clause of the Con
stitution applies legally, by every FAR
construction, with IS much force To the
trade dollar Is il does 10 foreign coin;
and no man will question that the
clause of the Constitution gives To the
States the right To make these foreigs
coins full legal tender when they
contain more silver of the same stand
ard fineness than our standard dollar.
II Congress, " hich has the delegated
power to coin money and regulate
the value thereof, will not make Its
own coin which il has coined \ Legal
tender, il il will not make these for
tender which are heavier than our own
dollar. then / say the states have that
right, and hope the States of this n
ion Will proceed on this line II Con-
| gr.ss will not give them this relief In
nay opinion il is unconstitutional Tor
| Congress Ia refuse Ia coin silver. The
| at-s delegated In Congress the great
| and important function and duty IL
coin both gold and silver. Congress
violates this trust when il refuses "a
coin silver. But the States did reserve
the right TO make gold and silver coin:
legal tender, and certainly IL seems
that the hour has come when the states
should proceed TO exercise this resery-
ed power in the interest OF stagnated
business and n suffering people.
| But the sure.t way for the people e
get relief and restore good government
is for them to drive the gold gambler:
from power next November.
