Wet cobs as IrrIrntors.

DIR John T. West, Of Bowling Green,
says that one OF the simplest and cheap
est expedients that ever came under his
observation rs how 10 get a sure stand Of
tender tobacco plants or any vegetable
or fruit plants in dry season. is that Of
breaking up corn cobs and soaking them
in water, say a week or month or any
other length Of time, according to guam
tity Of moisture desired. When the
plants are ready and the soil is we'll pre-
pared TO receive them. simply insert the
COO and the plant into the same cavity
in the ground--one by the side Of the
other. II has been demonstrated, he
says, that a we'll wet three.inCh cob
buried in the ground out OF sight, by the
side of plant, will furnish the roots Of
any ordinary plant enough moisture to
carry it well into that degree of life and
toughness as to defy the rsvages Of the
bugs, worms, and the deadly effects OF
the scorching sun. Then he says when
mister cob has served his moisture mis-
sion he is quickly assmilated by the
earth, the dominating agency, thus as
sisting in enriching the land.

BRIGHT SIDE OF THE
PASTORS LIFE.


On Wednesday, April 20, 1899, at
about o'clock p. m. was in my study
hard at work when all at once, l heard
quite a chatteriDg not like unto that
made by any of the brethren. dropped
my work and rushed to the window and
behold saw fifteen or twenty Of our
"Maries" and "Marthas" that we
brethren have always loved, coming up
the walk. l rushed for my wife. l felt
that she was greatly needed, but oh, she
was taking a nap. l called for our visi-
tors, Miss Bessie Norman and Miss
Mamie Fisher, but alas they were nap
ping too. The door bell rang and l
turned and admitted the good ladies,
not only of our church, but of the
Methodist church, and of other faiths
also, for we have no "middle wall of
partition between us" in our little town
when it comes to Christian love and
sympathy, and the nice and good things
we did receive that day. Meat, flour.
tomatoes, canned fruit, pickles, coffee,
lard, sugar, cakes, lemons, table linen,
chinaware, a beautiful coffee-pot in the
delft ware, from Grandma McGlothlsn,
and amoung the other donations was a
lovely center-piece and side-board scarf.
The smallest lady of the occasion who
donated, was little Miss Cathrine Wimp
WHO presented US with a nice pair of
towels Presented by Mrs. Heron,
beautiful basket OF flowers. 1t was filed
with the grand old Marchael Neil and
Gala lilies, enriched at the bottom with
a silver coin
How can we express our appreciation
Solomon says: ''To everything there is
season and a time to every purpose
under the heavens"
feel that this is the "time" to speak.
But l am conscious of this fact that
this is also one of the "times" that word
of mouth cannot express the gratitude
and expectations of the heart. To say
we are very grateful and thankful does
not begin to express the joy and comfort
we receive by this hearty manifestation of
your love and appreciation for your pas
tor and bis "helpmeet." For us to know
we have your love and sympathy is
enough to cause us to meet the obstacles
and burdens that may surround US in
lie with renewed purpose and energy.
Happy the pastor who can lean upon
such spirit of appreciation as is mani
tested by you in the very beginning Of
our work as pastor and people.
All Of our members and friends could
not be here. We hope they also will
feel that what we have said is an ex-
preston of our love to them also for
kindness and appreciation already ex-
pressed. May God help us all to APP
preciate the bond of union by which we
are bound, and learn to sing with a
more sacred meaning.
Blest be the tie that binds, our hearts in Christian
love,
The fellowship of kindred minds is like to that
above.
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
Our comforts and our cares"
God help US all to join hands and carry
out this wonderful truth.

Story ola Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form Of slavery. George d. Williams,
Of Manchester, Mich, tells how such a
slaye was made free. He says: "My
wife has been 30 helpless for five years
that she could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric Bitters
she is wonderfully improved and able
to do her own work." This supreme
remedy for female diseases quickly cures
nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
headache, fainting and dizzy spells,
THIS miracle working medicine is god
sent to weak, sickly run down people.
Every bottle guaranteed. Only so cents.

GALAXY OF
MILLIONAIRES
The Fortunes of the Worlds
Richest Men.
John Jacob AstOr VIII flake SI.O3
Every Second.

"Who is reputed to be the wealthiest
person in the United States" Some
two or three years ago a New York cor
respondent OF leading Western paper
devoted a good deal of space setting
forth the wealth attained by the men
who had accumulated $50,000000 or
more. At that time the list contained
nine names and stood in the following
order: William Waldorf Astor, $780,
600; Jay Gould, S1OO,OOO,OOO; John d.
Rockefeller, $4,000, 900; Cornelius Van
derbilt, $9O,OOO,0OO; William X. Van
derbilt, SS0,0OO,OO0; Henry M. Flsgler,
S6O,OOO,0OO; John 1. Blair, $5O,OOO,OOO;
Russell Sage, S5O,OOO,OOO Coils p.
huntington, S5OOOO,OOO.
The above estimates were said to be
authentic at the time they were pub
lished, The wealth of Mr.. Aston con-
sists Of real estate in New York City;
Gould's was in stocks and bonds; Rookie
feller's is partly in Standard Oil stocks
and partly in railroad securities; the
Vanderbilts' is in railroad stocks and
bonds; Mr.. Flagler's is in Standard Oil
stocks and government bonds; Mr.. Blair's
is in government and municipal securi-
ties; Mr.. Ssge's is in stocks and bonds or
loans, and Mr.. Huntington's is in rail-
road securities.
1t is said that William Waldorf Astor
will be a Millionaire before he reaches
the allotted age, and that he will follow
the precedent set by his great-grand-
father, John Jacob Astor, in transmitting
his fortune to his eldest son. Should he
become Millionaire his income at six
per cent. interest would be 100000 900 a
year, Sj,000,00O a month, Sl,l7l ,l54 a
week, SlGG, $40 day, SG,952 % an hour,
Sll5.SS a minute, and 81 SO II second.

and John Wanamaker, the iron and

Jolly Women of Vienna.

Vienna, the capital OF Austria, is
chiefly noted for producing three things
coffee, music and women. The word
"jolly" describes the temper of the
Viennese woman most patty. She lives
only for today and lets the morrow take
care OF itself. She is as good house
keeper as her German sister, but not
quite 80 particular; she is quite as
economical, bui dresses herself more ar
tistically; she is just as good a mother,
but more loving wife. She is some
what nervous, and the quarrel with her
husband is as regular as the amen in her
prayer. The truest and prettiest type
of the beautiful Viennese woman comes
from the south. In common with the
majority Of her European sisters, the
Viennese makes marriage her goal, but
retains her gillish ways, her Jolly spirit
and much of her beauty, and even 10
guess at her age is not only a crime, but
an absurdty.

LINCOLN'S
SELFISHNESS
He Helped to Save a Litter
of Pigs.
Honest Old Abe Did II to Get Peace
of Hind.

Mr.. Lincoln once remarked TO fell
low-passenger on the old-time mud
wagon coach, on the corduroy road
which antedated roads, that all men
we're prompted by sel6shness in doing
good or evil. His fellow-psssenger was
antsgonizing his position when they
were passing over a corduroy bridge that
spanned a slough. AS they crossed this
bridge and the mud-wagon was shaking
like Sucker with chills, they espied an
old razor-backed SOW on the bank of the
slough, making a terrible noise because
her pigs had got into the slough and
we're unable to get out, and in danger of
drowning. AS the old coach began to
climb the hillside Mr.. Lincoln called
out, "Driver, can't you stop just mo-
ment?" The driver replied, "If the
other Teller don't object" The "other
feller"-who was no less a parsonage
than at that time "Colonel" E. d. Baker,
the gallant general who gave his life in
defence of Old Glory at Balls Bluh-did
not "object," when Mr.. Lincoln jumped
out, ran back to the slough, and began
to lift the little pigs out of the mud and
water and place them on the bank.
When he returned Colonel Baker re-
marked, "Now, Abe, where does selfish
ness come in on this little episode?"
"Why, bless your soul, Ed, that was the
very essence of selfshness. would
have had no peace Of mind all day had l
gone on and left that suffering old SOW
worrying over those pigs. did it to get
peace of mind, don't you see?"-The
