The first printing press in this coun-
try was set up in Harvard in 1889, and
Mr.W. Lewis Fraser, the artist-lecturer,
finds that the first American-made
illustration appeared in Tully's alma
nae, of Boston, 1898. Increase Mather's
Ichabod, published in 1903, contained
an American copper-plate portrait, and
from 1920 books were regularly illustra-
ted in this country by American work
men. Mr.. Fraser says he has every
reason to believe that Benjamin Frank.
lin was an engraver either Oil wood OF
type metal. If that is 80, then three
men who figured conspicuously in oul
Revolutionary war were illustrators
Paul Revere was a copper-plate engrav
er; Isaiah Thomas, the printer, who
distinguished himself at Lexington
was another, and Franklin was the
third.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Bill Nye's Advice to Farmers

l. Let every farmer borrow every
cent tina; he can, securing the capital
list on farm and stock, tools, hay, grain,
feed, growing crops, bees, hornets,
fruits, timber lands, hereditamentsa and
appurtenances thereunto belonging or
in any wise apperteining-everything,
in fact, of which he is lawfully seized,
whether in fee simple, fee tail, in es-
crow, escheat or possession, expecta-
ton, reversion, felony attainder, cham
petry. forfeiture, lower, eleemosynary
rights, inheritance, by tenure or by sur
ferance, by conquest or grand larceny,
a freehold or for life, or during good
behavior, or by the courtesy, or by
hook and crook, or shifting use, or by
remainder or quotient, or for the cigars,
or on the side, or sub rosa, or vi ct
arms, or ad interim, or willy willy. or
nunc pro tune, or outside the city linn
it's, to have and to hold forever.
2. Go on farming.
8. Farm some more.
1. Farm until the COWS are seen to
be in the act of coming home.
S. When asked for principal or in
terest simply regret in a gentlemanly
way that you are unable to pay same,
which will be absolutely true if my
own experience amounts to anything
whatever.
6. Do this patiently until foreclosed,
and then hire out by the month to
farm the place, as the capitalist, of
course, does not know how to farm.
If he had he would have been a poor
man.
Z. I know of no better way to get
even with capital than to compel it to
own the farms, keep them in repair
and have them operated.

Montgomery, Ala, March 16, 1896.
To the State Herald:
Permit me through your columns to
ask the attention of the patriotic and lib
erty-loving people of Alabama to a mat
ter of grave Importance.
The house of representatives at Wash
ington by a decided vote has amended
the Indian bill by prohibiting the use of
public money in any sectarian or reli-
gious schools. The bill thus amended
comes before the senate for action at an
early day. Its passage will put an end
to long and bitter strife involving as
many believe, the great American princi-
pie of the independence of church and
state.
Permit me to ask that every citizen of
Alabama who reads these lines. and who
is concerned for the issue, write to each
of our state senators. urging him to use
his influence and vote to confirm the ac-
ton of the house. Respectfully yours,
GEO. b. EAGER.
