Illustration from the Bible.

Never, during his whole series of
speeches in Kentucky last week, did
Hon. W. j. Bryan rise to the heights
OF eloquence more splendidly than in
the following little sketch of beautiful
imagery:
II read a sermon not long ago that
impressed me much. would that every
Christian might read that sermon. The
minister, who was Mr.. Brown, of Roch-
ester, N. Y, took this text, or passage,
which describes the scene where Christ
was before Plate. PLATE said to Christ
''Knowest thou not that have power
to release thee or to put thee to death, +"
and taking this text the minister con-
trasted force and love. PLATE repre-
sented force. Behind him was the Roman
Government, the Roman Legions and
Caesar himself. Before him, helpless
and alone, stood Christ, preaching the
gospel Of love, and force triumphed.
They nailed Him to the tree, and those
who believed in brute force stood around
and Knocked and jeered and said: He
is dead" And then the minister pointed
ont how from that day the power OF
Gear waned and the power OF Christ
increased, and in few centuries
the Roman Government was gone and
its legions forgotten, while the follow.
ers of Christ increased with each passing
year until millions now take His name
with reverence upon their lips. And
then the minister said that in this ma.
ton, force and love meet face to face
and that we are to decide whether this
nation will stand before the world 81
q PLATE, representing brute force. or q
q Christ, representing the uplifting
power Of love.
81 believe he spoke the truth, be-
lieve that this nation to-day must decide
whether il is going to be great mora
force, rising and drawing all men unto
it, or whether it is going to sink to the
low level of the empires Of the Old
World"
Then followed q touching denuncia.
ton Of Mr.. McKinley's administration
for its act in making itself unable to
speak kind word for the struggling
Beers by its cruel and imperailistio atti
tude in the Philippines. The audiences
was visibly affected and showed it's emo
ton by it's wild applause.

To the Voters OF Ohio County.

The Democratic Executive Committee
for Ohio county, deem it proper to call
the attention OF the people OF Ohio
county TO the TACT that the nominee
for County Representative, Mr.. Lon
Stewart, lie lying at his home very i'll Of
typhoid fever and cannot possibly be
able to prosecute his canvass further.
Stricken down in the opening OF bis
canvass, which he had begun to wage
with vigor and energy, il behooves bis
friends and especially does the situation
appeal to the young Democrats OF the
county to take up bis fight, and to see
that bis cause does not suffer for the
want OF intelligent. vigorous work.
Mr.. Stewart is Q young man OF sterling
qualities, descended from long line Of
representative citizens, whose Demo.
cratic record is unbroken, his own re-
cord unfair pished, his nomination un-
animous, all appealing 10 the pemoc-
raoy for the most unanimous and en-
tbusiastic support; and to the eonserva'
tive voters OF all pOlitica! affiliations
for a most favorable consideration.

The Gaff'ney Ledger gives the

lowing words:
The fact becomes more patent
now ever day that the farmers In

to take short cuts TO planting.

extent take the place OF hand
work. Very lttle ground has been
broken, aud where there Was not

matter TO turn under, it is all the
better for nos having been dis
turbed. The continued rains would
have made brick mortar out of it.
a great deal of corn must be
planted without breaking. When
this must hr done q thing Of
prime importance is TO get a good
seei bed Open the seed furrow
with a good square-p0lnted bu
touge and send II down. Then if
you put In compost or other ma
nure, run another bull tongue in
the same furrow to distribute the
manure and incorporate it with
the soil then take good Watt
turning plow or some other good
one and make big loose ridge on
the manure or on the furrow
without the manure; open this
ridge with a short small plow,
drop your corn, cover lightly, and
plow out your middles when you
get time. Corn treated in this way
will never know the difference
between broken and unbroken

The Kidney Complexion.

The pale, sallow, sunken-cheeked, d,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with kidney ON
plexion."
Their Kidneys are turning to a
parsnip color. So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or
suffer from sleepnessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous eN-
haustion and sometimes the heart acts
badly.
The cause is weak, uuheal thy kid
eys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney
disease does not find out what the
trouble is until it is almost too late,
because the first symptoms are so like
mild sickness that that they do not
think they need medicine or doc
or until they find themselves sick in
ed.
DR.. Kiimer's Swamp Root will bui
up and strengthen their weak and dis
eased kidneys, purify their diseased,
kidney-poisoned blood, clear their
complexion and soon they will enjoy
better health.

a Scli-Sustaining Farm.
Editor Home and Farm.

Editor Home and Farm.
While the farming interest in
the South is in d rather depressed
condition, IN consequence Of the
very low price Of cotton, yet our
farmers must remember that they
are to large extent responsible
for this depression by the making
Of entirely too much cotton for
the demand, and by t making
their farms self-sustaining.
All those that MA ample pro-
visions the twelve months and
cotton a surplus crop are in much
the best condition. 1t is to be
hoped that all will pursue this
plan next season. The farmers
that make all their provisions are
in a much better condition than
the laborers in the towns and
cities. The majority Of them have
neither money nor provisions. As
1t takes all their wages to buy
provisions, they live hard, and yet
they keep up with their wages,
and there are thousands af fami-
lies out Of work ana almost starv-
ing.
When We think Of all this we
should commence our crops with
Cheerfulness and contentment, -,
and give all the details Of our
farm work the proper thought,
and avoid making the same mis-
takes we made last year. The
idea should be with every farmer
TO make his farm self-sustalning
and improve his sol if it is only
slowly.
1t Is thought that a great many
farmers will not use cummerciaI
fertilizers this year. They say
cotton is too low for it to pay. II
would be far better TO reduce the
acreage and ferti,.Ie a smaller
area as it Is as much trouble to
cultivate poor crop as a good
one, and on all our pine lands a
poor crop would be the result Of
