Over 1000, 900 Pensioners.

Washington. September 23.-The
United States pension list has passed
the 100000 mark. The annual re-
port of Commissioners Ware, which
will be made public t, the annual
encamprent of the Grand Army of
the Republic, will show that at the
end of the last fiscal year, ending
June 80 last, the pension rolls lacked
554 nemes of being 100000. Dur
ing July, however, 2,051 names were
added to the list, bringing the total
to l,001, ,497.
AT the end of the last fiscal year
the number on the rolls exceeded all
previous records, and with the July
addition it has passed the predictions
made by those who have opposed
pension legislation. Pensions grow.
ing out of the Spanish American war
have had great deal to do with the
increase, although the number of
actually pensioned is small in pro-
portion to the entire number of men
something like 100000 who served
in that war.

Hon. E. M. Rucker, Jr., of this
city has been requested by the Ma
tional Congressional Democratic
Committee to deliver series of ad-
dresses in the doubtful States in the
North and West during the month
of October.
This is considered a very high
compliment, as only representative
men of the party are invited to aid
in the campaign work in this way.
The invitation was received through
Hon. James Griggs, the chairman of
the committee.
Mr.. Rucker has not yet decided
whether he can accept the invitation,
as he has lost a great deal of time
from his law Office lately, and he
feels that his clients are entitled to
more of his time than he has been
giving them.-Anderson Mail.

l wish to make known to the peo-
pie of Rabun county. and people who
read The Tribune, an Indian cure,
which has been kept secret for m any
years: First, Take sweet fern roots
and tops, what you can grasp in one
hand; second, the same amount of
snake root and tops; third, the same
amount of salve weed, just the top.
Beat above well and boil in one
quart sweet milk and let the patient
drink it. For poultice, one handful
of devil shoe string, one handful of
fire weed, one handful of wild rose.
Beat these and add the boiled weeds
together and bind to the bite. Do
this three times over, then bind salt
peter TO the bite for few days.
This will cure any snake bite.-J. II.

A Constitutional Amendment.

The following from the Columbia
correspondence of the News and
Courier is of interest
cit will be interesting to note that
there will be one constitutional
amendment to be voted upon at the
next general election. In a word it
is proposition by which certain
townships, which have issued town
ship railroad bonds for railroads that
have not been built, want to get out
of the bonded indebtedness. The
bonds were issued and got out of the
hands of the authorities, but the
railroads were not built, or have
been abandoned. Now eight town
ships ask to have constitutional
amendment passed so that the cor
porate existence of the same is to be
destroyed and all of the corporate
agents are removed. In word the
townships are to be wiped out of
existence so as to get out Of the rail-
road bonded indebtedness. 1t APP
pears to be an excessively dangerous
method of getting out of debt.
The people in the townships, no
doubt, have just reason to complain
as they did not get the roads, but on
the other hand they seem to be
bringing on themselves no end of
trouble and are resorting to rem
edy which it is thought by many
Will not hold in the Courts.

An Old Money Order.

The postoffice department is in a
quandary as to what to do with a
money order which has been pre-
sented by Representative Lands.
The order was made in April, 1929,
by Asa Baker, at Mooresville, Ind,
and made payable to Robert Martin.
The amount is SIS. Recently an
heir of Martin presented the order
to Postmaster Charles Smith, of
Smithfield, Ind, for collection. The
postoffice at Mooresville is no longer
in existence, which accounts for the
order being presented at Westfield,
the nearest postofiioe. Postmaster
Smith did not know what to do
with the order, and had it sent to
Representative Landis. When he
presented it to the postoffice Off
oials they were very much surprised.
They said they did not know that the
money order system was iuaugurated
at such an early date. The order
appeared to be genuine and the Off
cials have taken it up for considera-
tion and will try to find some way
to pay the claim.

How a Man browns.

Few popular fallacies are Of such
wide extent as the belief that per-
son must rise to the surface three
times, no more and no less, before he
can possibly drown. There is little
ground for this supposition, although
it has been almost universally be-
lieved in for generations. The truth
is that drowning person may sink
the first time never to rise again, or
he may, as he indeed does in the
majority of cases, rise three times
before he sinks forever. 1t all de-
pends upon the quantity of water
that he swallows when he sinks and
the size of his lungs. The human
body in life naturally floats while
the lungs are inflated. AS long as
one keeps his head above the surface
of the water he can float, face up,
without having to move hand or
foot. But as soon as he sinks he
gulps and imbibes a quantity Of
water. If, after he has swallowed
water, he has any air left in his
lungs, he will undoubtedly rise again,
and will continue to sink and rise
alternately until all the air is ex-
PEELED from his lungs, when he will
drown.

The Holland Primrose.

There issa plant in Holland, known
as the evening primrose, which
grows to height of five or six feet
and bears profusion of large yellow
flowers so brilliant that they attract
immediate attention, even at a great
distance, but the chief popularity
about the plant is the fact that the
flowers, which open just before sun
set, burst into bloom 80 suddenly
that they give one the impression of
some magical agency. A man who
has seen this sudden blooming SAYS
1T is just as if some one had touched
the land with wand and thus COW
cred 1T all at once with golden
sheet.
