Texas Printers Are Good.
A printing office, says the
Ouanah Star, is usually consid-
cred a rather tough place and
the newspaper worker a mighty
bad man, Statistics, however,
do not bear out that idea. OF
3, 800 in the Texas penitentlarY'
there is not printer or a news
paper man, while there are min
listers, lawyers, music teachers,
doctors, bankers, cooks, pho
tographers, barkeepers, BARRIERS
and members of other PROBES
sions and callings. The printer
gets a bad name because the
nature of his business teaches
him to detect shams, while he
scorns hypocrites.

"When Mama Was Il Little
Girl"


Girl"
When mama was little girl,
You really couldn't find
IN all the State of Texas
\ child so sweet to mind.
Grandma never called but once
Mama was always there;
She never made the baby cry,
Or pulled her brothers hair.
She always rose at O'Clock
And went to bed ut eight,
She never went to parties then
She never staid up late!
She finiSh'd Latin. Greek and French
When she was 10 years old,
And she knew the alphabet
As soon as she was told.
She never climbed the apple trees,
Nor made the slightest noise,
And never III her life was known
TO play with little boys.
She always studied hard ut schoc
And got her lessons right,
And tending to the baby
Was mama's s;ffest delight
She never. never thought of +
And never in her life was 5
To tear or soil her Sunday
Or do thing that was
She never, never thought
Until her work was don
Sue labored hard from bi
Until the set of sun.

Americans are known as a dyspeptic
people. The extent of this disease
may be inferred from the multitude OF

have no value except as palliatives OF

do not touch the real cause Of the dis
ease. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical

look for two men who have Melted
thousands Of dollars by a forgery
scheme In that state and eastern ILL.,
nois. The men pick out some we'll
known farmer and bargain with him
for his farm. They offer liberal price
and the farmer accepts. The men ex-
plain that they are short of money
just at the time. but get the farmer to
sign paper giving them an option on
the land for short period Of time, and
with the farmers signature before
them practice until they can forge it
perfectly. They then display to q
loan agent forged deed for the farm
and borrow a large sum on it. The
wise farmer will sign no paper for a
stranger.

I formerly thought, like many 9TH
ers, that the best way to apply manure
Is to plow It under for corn; but have
lately concluded that there Is better
way, though perhaps not always so
convenient. II manure freshly ap-
Piled Is turned down fat on the sub
soil TO lie there three years or more,
will not considerable amount Of the
strength leach down SO deep as to be
practically lost? Could there be any
better way, theoretically at least,
than to cut all straw and litter quite
fine, grind cobs with corn into meal,
and run all through the stables, leave
the manure In the stables till the
ground Is plowed and dry, then apply
the manure and harrow 1t in? BY
this means practically all of it would
remain In the top soil to benefit the
crops. The next best way would be,
as someone suggested, to apply the
manure to the young grass, to be
plowed the next year.-E. Stanton, in
Ohio Farmer.

string hangs very near the surface of
the board B D. When B D Is exactly
vertical, A C Is exactly horizontal If
the angles at D are true right
angles.
The dimensions of the triangle may
be about as follows, A C, ~ feet
lon; A B, about feet inches; C B.
about 10 feet, B D. about feet long.
Other dimensions will DO as well, the
essential features being the straight
board. A C. and the board B D at
right angles to 1t and near enough
to one end Of A C for the man car
rying that end Of the triangle to see
accurately the position of the plumb
line. The board B D should not be
less than four feet long OF the plumb
line will be too short to give salts
factory results. 1t will frequently be
found convenient to have q scale Of
feet marked off on A C.
In marking on the board B D the
line In which the plumb line will hang
when A c Is exactly horizontal, con-
siderable care Is required. Two pegs
are driven into the ground as far
apart as A and C for these points to
rest on The highest one is driven
into the ground until the plumb line
follows about the center line of the
board B d. Having marked this po-
sition OF the plumb line. the triangle
Is reversed so that the end Of B rests
on the peg where before we had the
end c. and vice versa. Should the
plumb line make an angle with the
first line marked ON the board then
the correct position will be exactly
in the middle between these two
lines. This point should be perma-
nently marked on the board B D. In
using the triangle when the plumb
line passes through this point the
base Of the triangle will be level.
