To You!

THEY were passing the inevitable sub
l. scription paper for the benefit OF the
family of the "good fellow" says The
Montreal Underwater, who haG sudden
ly died. Said one business man: II
give this little for the relief Of their imme-
diate wants, and I give under protest.
Nothing will give to create fund for
the relief of the dead mans family, how
ever. You ask why? reply because in
these enlightened days Of life insurance
no man has right or excuse for leaving
destitute family. He has no moral, and
he should have no legal right, to create a
family unless he has and will agree to
keep a good-sized policy on his life. If
uninsurable, he should not be allowed to
marry. I knew G. (the deceased) we'll.
He had a good income and could have
been we'll insured. Now, why should l
or any other man be expected to con-
tribute out of our savings to pay G.'s
debts ?" Why should I pay for his sell
fishness, or his carelessness or extrava,,
gance? The idea that anybody should
put premium on selfishness is wrong
idea, and these collections for destitute
families are responsible for much i'm
providence and selfish neglect Of life in
surance. Men should be impressed with
q knowledge of their duty to save and
to insure by the entire absence OF any
makeshift in the form of a post mortem
collection. Let us be just as we'll as gen
erOus."

SUGAR MADE OUT OF MILK.-A
dispatch to The Globe-Democrat from
Marengo, ILL.,, says: Illinois is now
producing sugar from milk. The great
dairy district Of the Fox River Valley
has another and novel method of dis
posing of it's product. A queer-look-
ing factory is in operation in Marengo.
A barbed-wire fence is stretched
around it, so that the overcurious are
kept at distance. The owner is F.
w. Patrick, who owns a large number
of creameries throughout the valley.
The secret of refining the sugar is
we'll kept and seems to be in the pos
session of the one man about the prem
ises.
The cream is separated from the
milk upon being brought to the facto-
ry, the former being churned into but.
ter. The skinned product is curdled
and then dried, after which it is ground
as fine as corn meal and shipped away
to the east, where it is converted into
liquid and used for glazing purposes
The whey left from the curd is the
substance from which sugar is pro-
duced. 1t is boiled down to syrup
and reboiled until sugar Of a dark
brown color is formed. 1t is then
trucked to the refinery, where it is
sent through the secret process, after
which it is as fine and light as any OF
the granulated grades purchased in
the stores.
Milk sugar is not destined to COM
pete with the product of the beet, be-
cause the former is intended only for
medicinal purposes and sells for some
thing like so cents a pound. The in
dustry is in infancy and it is not known
at present what its manufacture will
lead to-.

In Conclusion, Let Me
Say That I Would Not
Pretend to Farm Without It.

CEVEN YEARS ago, Mr.. w. Holmes
y Hardin, of Chester county, enjoyed
the distinction of being one of the most
practical and successful farmers in the
Piedmont section, and according to the
best information at hand he still ranks
among the first. The appended endorse
ment of the Corbin Disk Harrow was
written by him in March, 1880, and what
he said then we are sure he will endorse
now. Read it and do some thinking:
CHESTER, s. c., March q, 1890.
SAM NJ. GRIsT, Yorkville, s. c.: Dear
Sir: have owned Corbin Disk Harrow
for several years, and considertit the most
useful and economical farming imple-
ment of which I have any knowledge.
Mr.. Corbin has done more for the farmer
than all the politicians, reformers, etc.,
combined. He has done something prac-
tical. No farmer can fail to be benefited
by the use of the Harrow, and the more it
is used the greater the benefit or profit.
It is almost the only so-called improved
farming implement that have ever seen
that would do all its manufacturers claim
ed for it, and the only one that would do
more. Every farmer should have one,
and man who is able to buy fertilizers
for his land is more able to buy Corbin
Disk Harrow. The time will come when
LQ6 COTDl1 DlSh I1dEIOW Will OO COhSiuCI-
ed as much of necessity on the farm as
the wagon, sewing machine, cooking
stove, and I might say, the pillow and the
sooner it comes the better for the farmer.
1t only takes farmer, who has been ac-
customed to the old way of doing things,
about one hour to realize how much time
and labor he has literally wasted before
he used the Corbin Harrow. In conclu-
sion, let me say that would not pretend
to farm without it. Respectfully,
w. HOLMES HARDIN.
We sell the GENUINE CORBIN DISK
HARROW. It has never had q success
full rival. If you want so-called Spad-
ing or Cutaway, we can furnish you one
made by the manufactures Of the Corbin.
The Corbin has solid disks and they are
the best; but as stated we can furnish the
other if you prefer to take the opinion of
someone who has had less experience than
we, and will furnish the best harrow of
that pattern on the market. It's mechan-
ism is identically the same as the Corbin,
the only difference being in the disks.

SLIGHTLY EMBARRASSED HIM.-A

SLIGHTLY EMBARRASSED HIM.-A
good story is told on a certain minister
not a thousand miles from here. He
made a call recently at home which
had not long before been blessed by
the arrival of a new baby. He was
met at the door by the lady of the
house, and after the usual salutation,
asked after the baby's health. The
lady, who was little hard of hearing
and suffering with the grip, did not
quite understand him, and thinking he
was asking about her cold, answered
that although she usually had one
every winter, this was the worst one
she had ever had it kept her awake
nights a good deal, and at first con-
fined her to her bed. Then, noticing
that her visitor was getting nervous,
she said that she could tell by his looks
that he was going to have one just like
hers, and asked him to go in and sit
down. Gold Leaf.

ANOTHER Porto RICAN Town CAP


TURED.-The war department., on
Thursday, gave out the following de-
layed telegram from General Miles,
dated Ponce, Porto Rico, August 9:
"Secretary of War, Washington ::
The following has been received from
General Wilson: General Emmitt's
brigade captured Coamo at $50 this
morning. The Sixteenth Pennsylva-

manding, led by Lieutenant Colonel
Biddle, of my staff, having made a
thanking movement through the noun

entire garrison of Coamo, about $50
men. The Spanish commander, llle-
roa, and Captain Lopez were killed.
Our loss is reported at six wounded,
only one severely. Men and officers
behaved excellently. Colonel Hulings

IN DEFENSE OF SAMPSON.
Secretary of the Navy Makes a Public
| Reply to an Attack.

Secretary of the Navy Makes Public
Reply to an Attack.
The secretary of the navy has re-
ceived several letters violently attack
ing Admiral Sampson. In reply to
one of them, the secretary says in
part:
Navy Department, Washington, D. c.,
August 5, 1898.
MY DEAR SIR-I am in receipt of
your letter, and hasten to assure you
that what you say about Admiral
Sampson is so unjust that it can only
be pardoned on the ground OF your
ignorance of the whole matter.
Admiral Sampson was selected for
the command of the North Atlantic
squadron because the department, in
the exercise of its best judgment, with
an eye single to the public interest,
believed that he was especially fitted
for the place.
The first movement on Porto Rico
was not movement for its capture.
Our movement to Porto Rico thus
became a reconnaissance, and fulfilled
its purpose. There was no intention
at this time of taking Porto Rico, as
the army was not then ready to CO.
operate.
With regard to sending our ships
into the harbor of Santiago, Admiral
Sampson was acting under the explicit
orders of the department not to expose
his armored ships to the risk of sink
ing by mines, and the wisdom of this
course is, I believe, universally &C.
knowledged by naval authorities. He
waited, as he should have done, the
cooperation of the army. How efec-
tually, under this cooperation, the re-
suit was accomplished, is now mat
ter of history.
1 can we'll understand why the
friends of other officers would be so
enthusiastic and earnest-as I amin
giving them the credit they so richly
every one of them-deserve for their
glorious work. I cannot conceive of
ANYBODY so mean as to retract by a
single hair from their merit. But L
cannot understand, why such bitter
feeling is manifested in many quar-
ters towards Admiral Sampson, when
all these officers, subordinate to him,
in their reports clearly and cordially
recognize the fact, although at the be-
ginning he was, by orders from Wash,
ington, going to confer with General
Shafter, yet the battle was fought un-
der his orders, and that the victory
was the consummation of his thorough
preparation. For myself, I know no
prediction for any one of these gal
liant men. I would crown every one
of them with laurel. want them all
to have their just deserts. Everyone
of them deserves unstinted praise not
one of them deserves anything less
than full measure for that days work,
And, therefore, I can think of nothing
more cruel than depreciation of the
merit of the faithful, patriotic COM
mander-in-chief, physically frail, worn
with sleepless vigilance, weighed with
measureless responsibilities and details,
letting no duty 60 undone.

PATRON SAINT OF THE LAWYERS.

PATRON SAINT OF THE LAWYERS.
"Did you know" asked the lawyer,
"that the legal profession is the only
profession that has no patron saint
at least none that it will own ?"
"What's the reason for that?' l
asked.
II don't know" answered the law
yer. "Carelessness, l suppose. When
the saints were handed around the
representative who should have been
present was probably arguing with the
Judge in another court?"
"What did you mean by AT least
none that it will own p" asked.
"Many years ago." was the reply,
"an Irish lawyer who was a fervent
Catholic sought to provide his profess
sion with patron saint. So genuine
was his desire for one that he travelled
to Rome to consult the pope. The
pope graciously received him.
Pray, your Holiness said the
Irishman, grant the lawyers patron
saint"
"According to the story, which is a
very venerable one, the pope looked
over the list and found there were no
saints that had not been given to the
other professions, at which the Irish
LAWYER was much cast down. Observ-
ing his depression, the pope bade him
cheer up, and then directed him to go
to a church near by, to blindfold him
self and to pass around the interior
saying Ava Marias all the time.
"'And,' said the pope, the first
saint you touch shall be the patron
saint of your profession
"Much grati6ed, the devout lawyer
went away to follow the instructions.
He passed around the church praying.
When he stopped he put out his hand.
He was in front of the altar of st.
Michael.
"'Be thou the lawyers patron saint,
he cried, and pulled off the bondage.
Alas, he wasn't touching st. Michael at
all. His hand was resting on the
devil under st. Michel's feet"
