PRAYED ON A FIRE TRUCK.
Remarkable Experience of Fire
COmpany's Chaplain johnson
and a Fatalist.


Baron johnson, one of the two clergy
men recently appointed to the new Of
fee of fire chaplain in the New York
department, tells an odd story of one of
the clerical fire ladies experiences.
Mr.. Johnson has long been fire chap
lain in practice, and before he came to
New York he used to run with the de-
partment of Tacoma, where he was
then stationed. There was big fire in
Tacoma one night, and Mr.. johnson
was lucky enough to have chosen that
evening to stay with one of the truck
companies. When the alarm came, he
was on the seat of the big threehorse
truck at the same moment that the
driver reached it. They pulled out Of
the house, found straight street ahead
and proceeded to let the horses out,
and then the driver spoke. Doctor"
he said-the men always called the
clergyman doctor-"this is my last
fire."
Mr.. johnson was impressed with the
mans tone, but he tried to laugh him
out of it. 'Nonsense, man, he said.
You mustn't think of such things.
You and I will have many good run
together YETI -. ii, s. d. =, -
*''No,'' said the driver, you can't jolly
me out of it, doctor. I never felt this
way before. know it's coming.'
"But just think" began Mr.. John
son. III
II tell you it's no use," the driver
broke in. "I'm going out tonight.
wish you would pray with me-
The clergyman saw that the mau felt
what he said thoroughly, and prepared
to do what he asked. He inquired
whether the driver was ready to die,
and the driver replied that he never
pretended to be saint, but he thou ght
he could say That he had always tried
to do his duty to the department and by
his family.
"Of course you know the Lords
Prayer" said the preacher.
Eyes, the driver said. <:
"Say it with me, then"
So the two began. The three biz
horses were plunging with great noise
over the pavement, the driver was
braced leaning forward and Juggling at
the reins, the heavy truck ratified and
banged behind them and beneath hem
and swnyed them in their seat. They
rushed through the glare of an electric
street lamp into the shadow beyond
and out into the glare again. The sky
was lighted red ahead of them with the
reflection OF the flames. Men were run
ming along the sidewalks and shouting
to one another. The drivers eyes were
on the road before him and the cler-
gyman kept his on the drivers face as
the two men said together: "Our Father

There was work for the CLERGYMAN
when he reached the burning building,
and he was separated from his compan-
ion of the run. He did not think of him
again until he heard crash of falling
glass, and shouts from the same direc-
ton told him that there had been an &C.

plate glass window had fallen, on the

place that might have been considered

q Summer catarrh assumes various
forms. 1t produces dyspepsia and
bowel complaint. It causes biliousness
and diseases Of the liver. It deranges
the kidneys and bladder. Summer ca

profession as systemic catarrh. Pc

Valuable Hints.
Editor Florida Agriculturist:

Editor Florida Agriculturist:
Horses can be kept from eating
orange leaves, etc, while grazing in
the grove, by spraying trees with
liquid horse manure. The same may
prevent other stock from damaging
trees.
Where sweet peppers are raised
care must be taken not to have strong
peppers growing near. A wild birds
eye pepper 100 yards from my garden
spoilt some of my sweet peppers. In
sects carried pollen from the wild pep
pers to the cultivated ones. After de-
stroying wild peppers had no more
trouble with strong peppers in the
garden. G.

A grain of sand the eye can cause ex-
crutia ting agony. A grain of pepper in
place of the grain Of sand intensif1es the
torment. The pain is not confined to the
organs affected. The whole body feels
the shock of that little Irritating particle.
1t is so when there is any arrangement
or disorder of the delicate womanly or
CANS. The disorder may seem trivial but
the whole body feels it. The nervous sys-
tenn is disordered. There are fretfulnesss
irrtability, sullenness and depression OF
spirits The general health of woman
depends on the local health of the organs
peculiarly feminine. Remove the drains,
alterations, bearing down pains, and 9TH

Why the South is Poor.

At Vicksburg, recently, Judge Rob-
ert Powell said to the farmers of
Mississippi.
The reason of our poverty is not
hard to find Take our average cit
iZen. He gets up in the morning and
pulls on a pair of socks from Lynn,
Mass, puts on a pair of shoes from
Boston, suit of clothes from Phila-
delphia; goes in to his breakfast,
draws up a chair made in Chicago,
and eats from table which came
from Cincinnati; sweetens his coffee
from Rio, with sugar from Louisiana;
takes a slice of ham cured in st. Louis,
and buffers a biscuit of Minnesota
flour with oleomargarine which came
from the Lord knows wher he eats
South Carolina or Louisiana rice and
even the very grits upon his table
were ground in some Northern mill;
he goes to his stable and puts a set of
harness from st. Louis on a mule
from Kentucky; bitches it to a wagon
from Illinois, and drives over to his
neighbors and complains of hard
times. Of course times are hard when
everything people eat, drink, wear and
only the atmosphere which he breathes
is a home institution
What Judge Powell says is applica-
bic to the entire South to greater ex-
tent than any other part of the coun-
try. The South pays out ready money
for what it should grow on the farm
and garden, and charge their poverty
to bad legislation. The Southern
farmer neglects to inform himself by
study and thought, to overcome those
obstacles in the way of success that
largely makes the difference between
success and failure. The Florida Ag-
riculturist truly says farming is a
trade or profession in which success
is determined by the uncertainties Of
nature in addition to the difficulties
that beset the merchant All have to
suffer by competition, but the farmer
cannot waste the profits Of success
full year without the danger Of find
ing all his calculations broken up by
the caprice of the next season.
The rewards of successful farming
are greater than those offered in any
other business, but those rewards are
proportionately difficult to secure. Of
old it was said: There is no excellence
without labor Our higher civilization
is evidenced by the truth today; there
can be no success without straight
thinking carefully put into practice. %
The farmer has to adapt his meth
DDS to the fickleness Of the weather.
too much and too little rain-the cold
and the heat, the insect pests, the
