When I Was a Boy.

P. D. Gold, In Wilson Times.
II is sometimes good to remem Der
the days that are past-to review and
collect from former experiences the
crumbs that are left that nothing be
lost.
shall at present speak Of farming.
My father was farmer, and / began to
plow at the age of seven years.
His primal object OF farming was to
raise his own supplies. l never knew
him to buy a grain of corn, nor a
pound OF meat, chicken, horse, COW,
mule, nor anything of that sort. He
usually had such things to sell. 1t
was common for men to drive their
wagons to his crib and load them with
corn, and buy bacon from him. Now
and then he would sell horse. Always
he had something to sell, and the buy
ers would come to him to purchase.
He did not plant much cotton no
tobacco.
He always had money in his pocket,
and bought tract of land almost eve.
ry year.
Ii In those days farmer bought
corn it shook his credit, for he was
considered poor farmer.
My observation Is that the farmers
now that raise their own bread and
meat at home are successful, but those
that buy their corn, meat, -four and all
such things as they must have are fail
ures.
Now who are the wiser, the farmers
OF olden time that made their provls-
ions at home and kept out of debt, or
those of these days that grow so much
cotton and tobacco and buy what they
eat, and are so enslaved with debt?
Return to the good Old way. Plant
corn enough to fatten your hogs.
Raise your supplies at home. Have
your smoke house at home and your
corn CRIB at tie same place, we'll filled.
Raise chickens. Have your own milk
and butter and such things at home.
Then what cotton Or tobacco you
make will be your own.

New Cure for Appendicitis.

Selected.
Physicians are interested in a new
treatment for appendicitis which has
just been successfully tried by DR.. Geo.
J. Helmer, of New York. Heretofore
a surgical operation has attended the
treatment OF such cases. DR.. Helmer
does not employ the surgeons knife.
The patient on whom treatment was
tried is a young woman living in Har-
lem. Her attending physicians favor
ed the usual operation, DR.. Helmer, ac-
cording to the New York World, first
tried his plan. This is simply forcing
out the matter which clogs the appen-
dix by superficial treatment. .
The largest muscle Of the human
body, the posas magnus, which is just
back OF the appendix, is manipulated
with the hand in such q way that a
spasmodic contraction causes it to-snap
back against the vermiform appendix,
forcing out Of that organ any foreign
substance it may contain.
In the case of the young woman she
was relieved In eight minutes.

Present Day Thoughts.
LOOKING AHEAD.
By "GROsvENOR."

Written for The Commonws saith.
Bleased are they who know their
place and fill it-who out of the myriad
duties OF all know their one duty and
do it. Blessed are they who mourn
not In small corners-who look neither
to the tight nor to the left for excuses
to shirk their own little task. Blessed
are they who shine out steadily their
gleam Of useful service, though out OF
the darkness comes neither word OF
thankfulness nor the hail of fellowship
Blessed are they, for their work 10 tes-
timony rendered to the grandeur OF
humanity by high lives lived In lowly
places.
Blessed are they who without being
puffed up, believe that their own van
ishing lives are of moment to the
worldwide regard life as trust and
Its manner OF living a test-who treas
ure their hours for thoughts and deeds
rather than kill them with foolish and
fruitful waste. Blessed are they; for
their beliefs solve all questions regard
ing existence. Their lives justify the
power that called men into being.
These are they who make the world
frultful-each generation heedful to
leave Improvement, that the genera
ton to come may have power to carry
the world still further forward.
Blessed are they who believe In hu-
man advancement. They are seers of
the future, and what they see are not
fantasies of the brain. As are their
Ideas, 80 are shaped the acts and facts
of their lives. Their beliefs make them
rise up and be doing for betterment;
their beliefs ARE the betterment of
the world. Blessed indeed are they
for without such lives animalism and
savager! would creep forth again to
rule humanity. Blessed are they,
though lonely in their works for their
power in the world is not to be meas
ured by noise nor estimated by honors.
Blessed are they who look backward
to learn and forward to see, who be-
lieye the light ahead was never excelled
by tee light that is past, who believe
that the present is better than the
past in all things whereof to be proud,
end that the future Is to be better than
either. Their hearts are quiet, though
In things yet to be done, they shall
haye no living share.
Blessed are they who thrill with the
feeling that this vast universe is not
a mere chance thing that blind force
rent out OF chaos, propelling it forward
to reach an end of blind calamity.
Blessed are they in the thrilling for
they hold the key to peace within,
while perplexity rules without. Though
their feet needs must rest upon earth,
their spirits rise up until their eyes can
look down on the restless whole as if
from an exceeding high mountain.
They soc purposes unseen by those
who gsze upward from dark valleys OF
confusing doubt and unquiet question.

They are slaves who tear to speak
For the fallen and the weak
They are slaves who will not choose
Hatred, soothing and abuse,
Rather than in silence shrink
From the truth they needs must think.
They are slaves who dare not be
In the right with two or three.

meeting promises to be one OF great
importance, and it is thought that q
large delegation from the cotton States
will be in attendance.
Labor, the famous lawyer who de-
Tended Zola and Dreyfus, is to visit
America and spend some time lectur-
Ing in the principal cities. The Amer
lean Bar Association has expressed a
wish that it's distinguished French
confrere visit the United States, and he
is anxious to come. Should he come
he will receive a warm welcome and
thousands Will throng to hear him, for
there was much sympathy In this coun-
try for his work In the great Dreytus
trial.
The theory of the Constitution is
now and always bas been that the man
who refuses to support his county pa
per, no matter whether he agrees with
the editor or not, cannot be depended
upon to aid in the growth aud develop
ment of his town and his community.
The man who takes any paper at all
should take his home paper; If he
makes this small investment he will
soon betray desire to widen his point
of view, and will patronize, in addition,
some newspaper that has a wider field

George T. Angel, editor of "Our
Dumb Animals" has numerous testi-
monials to the efficacy of sulphur as a
meiiciue. It IS claimed that sulphur
is a cure for ia grippe. At match
factory in Connecticut town, where
la grippe was prevailing as an epidem-
ic, the forty-three persons employed in
handling sulphur In making matches
entirely escaped the disease. The sug-
gestion is given that sulphur sprink'ed
In the shoes will prevent la grippe.
Mr.. Angel thinks that inasmuch as
sulphur is cheap and is so strongly
recommended by many persons, it is
we'll enough to keep it before the peo-
pie, for it is cheap and easy to get.
