Must be possessed in no ordinary degree
by those who bear the pangs of rheuma-
tism without complaint. We have never
heard Of such an individual. But why
not, ere the lifelong martyrdom begins,
extinguish the germ of this atrocious
malady with Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, the efficacy of which as a preventa-
tive of the disease, as well as a means
OF relieving it, is well established and
amply attested, during the last forty FIVE
years, over professional signatures? 1t

always liable to terminate life suddenly

PAINT THINGS AS THEY ARE.
(Statesville Mascot

Many of the papers of the country
have exaggerated the business revi-
val" 1t has done much harm in the
South. Many merchants. trusting in
the promised prices for cotton and the
good crop prospects, overloaded them
selves with goods before the recent
drought and fall in prices. The re-
suit will he that many of them will not
b. able to sell the goods or meet their
bills and will be forced to the wall. 1t
is only the portions of the country which
raise surplus wheat that have felt any
of the business revival" Too much
prosperity growing" will do as much
harm sometimes as too much calamity
bowling" 1t is best always to paint
things as they are.

THE NEWsBoYs DREAM.

It Was His Idea of What Would Re Ab-
 solute1y Ideal Conditions.
 The American newsboy can almost be said to have created a genus for him self. If he has any, he has certainly created it, for of all the inhabitants of this planet there is none who is so abso- lutely independent, so thoroughly con- fident of his own exertions. He has self importance, derived from his ability to support or partially support himself, which places him high above the rank of the ordinary gamin. and he generally possesses what is far more important in any community-ready money. He is the capitalist of our junior civilization, the Count Esterhazy of newsboys' alley He can play craps for money when other boys are constrained to pursue this de- lectable amusement with only the mild ar if more intellectual pleasure of study ing the fluctuations of fortune, or, at most, hazarding cigarette pictures.
 He may swear little more than is necessary, but in general is not half bad. His train of thought is usually healthy and vigorous and has robust ness born of the outer air in which he spends so much of his time. Physically he is agile and almost tireless While apparently reckless i'll most things, he IS, on the whole, careful of his health he Is scarcely ever known to smoke q whole cigarette at n time His intellect is as keen as a razor. He keeps 1t con- tinually honed on the strop of expert ence. Everything carries for him a les son. From the sale of the largest Sun day paper to that of the most unpreten- tious weekly there is nothing he does not profit by.
 He is born statist, self educated strategist He has the nice art of going far enough and yet never overstepping himself. On the eve of such all occasion he will yoeiferate, "All about the elec- tion." but don't ever expect of whom until you buy the paper. Pleasure and other things occupy fair proportion of his time, but with him the distribution of news is always uppermost. It even permeates his sleeping hours. One of them was heard to remark between sales to another day or so ago. Say. Jim, had de finest dream I ever had las night"
 Was it about angels?" inquired Jim.

storms. Ii will thrive with or with out moisture. An important inn proyoment to come later will be that the dairies will follow the beet sugar factories. At present the pulp is fed to steers The amount of pulp that makes two pounds of weight on steer, worth 6, ' or 8 cents, will make pound of butter The dair- ies should follow the sugar beet fac tories ih order to use the pulp. The farmer should bring home the pulp when he takes his beets to the mill.
 There are now three factories in California and two more will be started very soon. It would not be an extravagant statement to say that there will be 20 more factories next year in full operation in the United States.

THE FAMOUS GIN LAW.
How It Was Received and Evaded by tho
 English Public.

This famous gin lawa' nassesd i'~s T ' 150, IS lnterest,1,.,szzn |. ing as the earliest se- 'TT'sssS's blow at liquor dealing among civ ilized nations It levied tax of 20s a gallon on spirits, and license of $50 for any one selling or dealing in them And, being in advance of public opin- ion, it failed, much as other more stringent prohibition laws have failed in our own day. For the cry was at once raised that it taxed the poor man 8 gin and let the rich mans wine go free Every wit, every caricaturist, had his fling at it. Ballads were hawked around telling of the approaching death of Mother Gin. The liquor shops were hung with black and celebrated uproariously Mime. Geneya's lying in state, her funeral, her wake and so on. The night before the law went into effect, so the contemporary journals say, there was universal revel all over the country. Every one drank his fill and carried home as much gin be- sides as he could pay for
 To evade the law apothecaries sold it in vials and small packages, some
 
 times colored and disguised. generally under false labels, such as ''Colie Water" Make Shift, Ladies De light. 1" There were printed directions on some of these packages-e. g., "Take two or three spoonfuls three or four times day, or as often as the fit takes you. 1" Informers were very prominent and exceedingly offensive. inventing snares to catch lawbreakers for the sake of the heavy rewards, and spying and sneaking around in way particularly distasteful to the English mind. In con- sequence they suffered in their turn. The mere cry, Liquor spyl9 was enough to raise mob in the London streets, and the informer was lucky if he escaped with sound thrashing and ducking in the Thames or the nearest horse pond. Indeed. such an outcry was made about the matter that the minis try became very unpopular, ;a.ii,. aid the the law was not enfolued after two or three years, and was largely modified in l749, after seven years trial - Popular Sci ence Monthly.

THE Owensboro Inquirer thus comments on Labor Day: "This is Labor Day. Why it is so can only be explained by diving deep into the mysteries of demagogy. It is a National and State holiday, of which labor can take advantage only by losing the time, which is q double burden, as the income of the laborer is lessened by the amount of . days wages and is further de- pleted by the amount he will spend In excess Of what he would do if he were at work. The people who get advantage of it are not laborers at all. And here is point. Of all the that is enacted for the benefit Iof labor not a line of it has the effect thatis ostensibly intended. The tariff is a striking example. It's effect in helping labor by an increase Of wages is negative and by holding up wages is propblematical. Its effect by causing the laborer to pay more for all manufacture goods which he consumes is apparent and certain. All labor legislation hith- erto is a farce and a fraud.

SUGAR BEETS.

The farmers of the South, espec ially of Arkansas, would do we'll to keep an eye on the sugar beet in sdustry. This promises to become shortly one of the most profitable industries in the country The eli mate and soi' of Arkansas are es- pecially adapted 10 the growth of sugaF beets, and if the farmers of this State would begin the culture roT this 'saccharine seeysgetable, they would no doubt md it more profit able thaa cottm mon.
 Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson has just returned to Washington from tour of the West, where he made a careful investigation of the culture of sugar beets, and his ob servations will ID doubt be interest ing to all who are concerned in agriculture
 From what can ascertain, Said the Secratrry, "the best results at tained in sugar beet culture have been in the Pecos Valley in New Mexico. The growers there report percentage of sugar as high as p, which would mean large profit. hnothea very successful locality is the Lehi Valley in Utah, where a percentage of 13 has been secured. They have 3,200 acres in sugar beets : this year, and the growers will get $50 an acre this year for the crop. The Agricultural Department will buy from these growers in Utah three tons Of seed this year. Next year we intend to distribute fully a dozen tons Of seeds. We sent out this year 22,000 packages for ex- periments in 27 States. . The State experiment stations will make analysis whenever it is practicable and our Department will make others.
 We have the utmost confidence in the futute of the sugar beet in dustry in the Western States. We find from our reports that the sugar beet is the one thing that defies drought, and will withstand hall
