1t has been fine weather for the
farmers so fur this year, and they are
making splendid use of it. Some are
plowing, while others are clearing,
getting up wood and hauling fertilizer

lar routine Of affairs that is to be done
on the farm ut this period of the year.

their last years crop.

There was u meeting held in Honea
Path last Saturday in the interest of
the proposed new cotton mill to be
built ut that place; most all of our farm
ers attended it and subscribed. Presi-
dent Orr, of Piedmont. and Mr.. Ham,
NETT, OF Anderson, were present and
made speeches in the interest of tho
mill. The required capital stock has
not yet been secured, hut the thrifty
citizens of Honea Path are working in
earnest, and the mill seems now to be
an assured fact.
Wheat in this section is making a
very poor start, and oats are nearly all
killed, so the farmers will no doubt
reap n slim harvest this year.

our people. His son. Clarence, is run

the Dolphin up the Merrimac river. as the
gang wants to go fishing All OF Whlch
means that Moody is here still 'one OF the
boys" .. IT,. .-..
At Harvard he used the field for exer-
else and his room to make him lawyer.
When he came out he had never. been
known as an athlete and ne held no par
ticular place in the heart Of the college,
except that he was good fellow ana
fond Of a good time. .
When he came back to Haverhill and
began to study law, there were IN the city
some young men as yir1le and as Dralny
40 himself; all cronies, who would have
their good times. They would fight like
cats and dogs in court over an assault
case. where the maximum fine was not
over SIS, and then so out and enjoy ire
together.
Like all young lawyers here, Moody
first aspired for the position OF city So
licitor, and there was fight for the place,
and Moody got it with some dlhculty.
He did his work thoroughly and was later
promoted to the Office of district attorney,
where he got his real start. He prose-
cuted a set of doodle aldermen in Law
renee, and twice lost his case on disagree
ments. Then he sent five men to jail
who as aldermen had sold out this city on
the matter of liquor licenses. once, IN
a murder case, where young man mad
attempted burglary at farmhouse and
killed the farmer, the jury brought in
verdict of manslaughter. Moody was so
angered that he roasted the jury and sue
ceeded in convincing the judge that the
man he had convicted was really guilty
Of murder, and got him sent to state
prison for twenty years.
While he was district attorney several
cities here were under a prohibition re-
gime even the county seats. It was the
custom in those days to go out after a
case and take a 'bracer' before going to
dinner When Moody learned that this
was the case he simply said to himself
he had just telegraphed "Moody to order

DR.. x. La Motto Sage made q fortune
out Of Hypnotism. He probably knows
more about the subject than any living
man. His methods are radically different
from any ever before presented. BY his
new system he hypnotizes people instan-
taneously. He tells you how to exert
tremendous silent influence without maxi
ing gesture or saying single word. He
gives the only real. practical methods for
the development Of the power Of Personal
Magnetism that have ever been published.
During all the time that DR.. Sage was
before the public he made it his business
to note carefully the effect Of hypnotism
upon the human mind. He became con-
vinced that this mighty mysterious power
could be utilized to the advantage of am
bilious men and women who wished TO
better their condition in life. To demon
strate the correctness Of his IDEAS when
he retired from public life he founded a
college where Hypnotism, Personal Mag
netism, Magnetic Healing, etc., might be
taught along the definite lines he had laid
down. The result is that the college has
grown to be the largest Of Its kind In the
world. Thousands of successful students
in all parts of the globe are living wit
nesses to the wonderful power and the
great practical benefits to be derived
from DR.. Sege's methods. The doctor has
recently written a book entitled Tine
Philosophy Of Personal Influence" in
which he tells In plain, simple language
Just how to acquire hypnotic power and
the various uses to which it may be put.
Among the many interesting things upon
which the book treats are! How to de-
velop magnetic power and influence peo-
pie without their knowledge; how to cure
bad habits and obstinate chronic dis
eases, when medicine and everything else
in vhis line fails; how to implant CONF
msnd in a subjects mind that he will
carry out in every detail month or a
year hence, whether the hypnotist Is
Dresent or not; how to hypnottze people
