Salaries Are Cut.

Acting on the suggestion of the
governor the management of the
blind institute has cut the salary of
the superintendent from 81 700 to
81 800, and the salary Of the book
keeper has been cut from 81 600 TO
6O0.--Sentinel.
How would it do for Gov. Mount
to reduce his own salary from
$1,000 to $1,000? Plenty Of per-
sons would do the work at that
figure.

Upon the farm Of Henry David

most remarkable apple orchards in
existence. There are perhaps sew

been bearing for over sixty years.
The crops from the orchard in the
last five years have been greater and
OF a better quality than those OF
twenty years ago, and the fruit sur

Spring Catarrh.

Again spring is here. The long,
cold winter with its buster and chill,
has passed, and has left in it's train
innumerable victims of chronic ca
tarrh. They have taken a great many
remedies during the winter with per-
haps temporary relief, but a fresh
cold has brought 81 the old synap.
toms, and heartsick, and weary of try
ing, they have concluded that there
can be no relief for them. This is a
great mistake; and now is the time to
rectify it.
The spring time is the most favora.
BILE time in the year to treat catarrh.
There is so much less liability to take
fresh cold that the treatment is unim-
peded. All old cases of chronic ca.
tarrh should begin Immediately a
course of Pe-ru-na as directed in DR..
Hartman's books on the disease.
There are so many different phases
and stages of catarrh that one hard.

many people think they are suffering
from something else and have tried
many medicines in vain, when If they
could realize that it is catarrh and
take Pe-ru-na for it they would i'm.
prove promptly and soon recover en-

Reeds Little Criticism.

The action of the legislature in
appointing from their own number a
committee to revise the constitution
of the state, is meeting with just
and proper criticism. 1t is well
known that there is dearth of law
yers in our present legislature, and
the members Of that august assem-
blage have already given signal evil
dence of their inability to grapple
with questions involving a deep
knowledge of fundamental law. It
would have been wisdom on their
part to have created commission
of able jurists and men of broad le-
gal knowledge and experience,
whose duty it would have been to
meet IN council and report back to
the next session whatever revisions
in the constitution they deemed ex-
pedient and polite. We might well
profit by the recent example of Ohio,
and avoid laundering legislative
enterprise which may turn out to be
only rehearsal Of much ado about
nothing. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that the much needed revision will
speedily be made.-Clarhsburg Telci

The foregoing facts show that a
very large area of our State lies at
the comparatively high level of more
than 2000 feet above the sea. Above
this level farming operations become
very limited, and whatever may
have been the case while the soil
was new, the business of this region
will ultimately become reduced to
three principal pursuits, forestry,
grazing and mining.
Apples however thrive admirably
in all these upland counties and
more attention should be given to
their culture.
The largest production of the var
ious cereal crops in West Virginia
is clearly explained by the topogra-
ply of our State. Thus the coun-
ties producing the largest amounts
of corn are in order as follows
Wayne, Jefferson, Berkeley, Mason.
The elevation of these four counties
is the lowest of any four counties in
the State.
The counties producing the larg
est amounts of wheat are Jefferson,
Berkeley, Marshall and Mason. This
is evidently due to the low elevation
of the cotinties and consequently
their high temperature.
The principal production of rye is
distributed as follows: Hampshire,
Morgan, Hardy, Pendleton.
Almost all of the buckwheat in
the State is raised in Preston, Hamp-
shire, Pendleton, Pocahontas and
Tucker.
Thus does nature determine what
crops man shall SOW in each topo-
graphic district and in each up
land zone.

Mr.. Love Heard from Again.

John J. Love, of Elk City, this
county, who has been the recipient
of more free advertising than any
other man in the county, was in
town Monday. While here we had
the pleasure of conversation with
him and found that he had been very
much imposed upon by some of the
newspaper fraternity. He informs
us that his object was not marriage,
but that his family, which con-
sists of himself, some sons and a
daughter, had been quite i'll for some
time and that he wanted house
keeper, but not wife.
Mr.. Love, since the letter written
to Mayor Swift, of Chicago, was
published, has received nearly 200
letters from ladies in response to the
advertisement, some understanding
it's purport and some wanting hus-
band. Not few of the applications
are from our own state and some
from this county. Most Of the APP
plicants backed their claims by tes-
timonials from prominent citizens of
their respective locations. Mayor
Swift offered to send housekeeper
prepaid to Mr.. Love, but that latter
gentleman preferred to wait until
the excitement prevailing at present
subsidies.
The gentleman is not anxious to
marry and has only answered two OF
the numerous letters received. He
receives a pension of $12 per month
and in case some lady should obtain
his hand and out live him, she
would receive this monthly install
ment as long as she remained his
widow. This is probably one reason
why SO many letters have found
their way to Mr.. Love.-Barbour
Democrat.

For Suffering Armenia.

Through the efforts of Rev. w. H.
McDougal, of Claremont, and Chas. J..
Service, President of the Southern Cali
fornia Christian Endeavor Union, Of
Riverside, California, the National
Armenian Relief Committee last
week received carload of oranges
which were donated by the fruit grow
ers of Southern California to the Or
phan's Fund.
Through the kindness of Brown g.
Seccomb, auctioneers, the car was ad-
yertised and sold at auction free of
cost to the committee. David A.
King, Truckman, also favored the
cause.
Messrs. p, Ruhlman & Co., the
Washington street fruit dealers, who
have kindly attended to the DISPOSE
tion of the oranges free OF commission,
have sent to Brown Bros. s. Co., treas
urers, $923.99 the proceeds of the
sale, and state that they may have
$l24.00 more TO add to this amount.
The fruit sold at high figure on
account of the object for which it was
contributed, there being much spirited
bidding.
The Young Peoples Societies
throughout the United States and
Canada purpose supporting an Or
phanage at Harpoot, Turkey, to care
for the orphans left in that center as
a result of the Armenian massacres,
and this gift of 81, 900 will be the
first amount to be credited to the
fund. There are more widows and
orphans needing aid in Harpoot prov
