BRA1N-FooD NONSENSE,

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded bv the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
PEELED the silly notion that one kind
of food il needed for brain, another
for muscles, and slill another for
bones. A correct diet will not only
nourlsh q particular part Of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your
food may be. its nutriments are de-
stroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia.
You must prepare for their appear
ance or prevent their coming by
taking regular doses OF Green's
August Flower, the fayorite medi-
cine of the healthy millions. A
few doses aid digestion, stimulates
the liver to healthy action, purifies
the blood, and makes you feel buoy
ant and vigorous. You can get

dice at Y. H. Frederlck's drug

INSURANCE.
The rs Per Cent. Increase.

The dispatch from Atlanta stat.
ing that the 5 E. T. A., had de.
cided upon al increase of 25 pei
cent. in insurance rates with some
exceptions, will hardly come as .
surprise to insurers throughout the
South. The tremendous fire losses
all over tie country since the be.
ginning of the new year has made
such Conditions imperative and they
may consider themselves lucky that
it was not more. TIE dispatch
reads:
Atlanta, Ca, Feb. 21.-The
Southeastern Tariff Association to-
day decided that % per cent. in
crease in insurance rates be made
on all stocks Of merchan-
disc, without exception, and on
frame store buildings also on alI
manufacturing risks and other
special hazards which have not been
rated under revised schedules with
In year. This action went into
effect to-day, and was caused by
the extraordinary fire losses which
they have been called upon to bear
during the last three years, and es-
pecially since the beginning of the
present year.
Tie eight million dollar conflagra.
tion ut Newark. n. j., the three.
million dollar loss at Waterbury,
Conn. are the two that stand out
prominently on the bad side OF the
ledger, while 81 100000 fire IN New
York City yesterday is ''piling it
On" to an exten:: that further illus
t1ates necessity Of the general i'm
crease ali over the country. New
York is.excepted on account Of the
elevation Of rates two years ago,
out if few more such fires occur
here, that city, too. may be SUBJ
ected to the rule.

public the names of the capitalists
who are behind the scheme unless
the city acts favorably upon the
written offer that will be made to
it. If it acts favorably, then the
names of the gentlemen l have IN
terested will be laade known to the
entire satisfaction of every city
Official. There will be at least
IS, 100000 needed to carry out the
plans our engineers have drawn up,
and probably considerably more
than that amount, but we have all
the money pledged that will he
needed and the city will not be
asked to furnish single cent. In
case the city does not accept our
plan, then there will be no occa-
sion to make known the names of
the gentlemen who have pledged

You have good reason to fear an
attack OF pneumonia, when you have
a severe cold, accompanied by pains
in the chest or in the back between
the shoulders. Get a bottle OF
Chamberlain Cough Remedy and
nse it as directed and it will pre-
vent the threatened attack. Among
the tens of thousands who have used
this Remedy for colds and Ia grippe,
we have yet to learn Of a single case
that has resulted in pneumonia,
which shows that this remedy is a
certain preventive of that dangerous
disease. Fol- sale byV. H. Freder-

Horse Branch Items.

/ March 5, 1902.
Editor ST. Tammany Farmer:
| I will give you few more items
from our thriving community.
Everything is rolling and moving
since the weather has cleared up. There
is no time lost, as we are always ready
| to put our shoulders to the wheel and
make things move.
The health is some better since our
last writing, but am sorry to say Miss
Idell Perreand has been suffering very
much for the last few days with tooth
ache.
Miss Davie Finch has a very severe
attack of cold, which confined her to
her bed. We hope she will be up again
soon.
Mr.. j. H. Thompson Is still on the
| sick list.
The school boys and few others
met at the school house last Saturday
and cut the logs that were around the
house and piled them, which made q
great change in their play yard, and at
the same time the broom brigade, with
Miss Ruth as Captain, took possession
of the house, and the way sand and
water few was caution. By the by,
we have nice play yard, and nice
clean house to teach the children IN.
and hold Sunday school in also.
1t was reported to your writer that
Mr.. Finch killed fine gobbler Monday.
1t was announced that Mr.. Lancaster
would visit the Horse Branch School
last Saturday. The patrons were on
hand as usual, but where is Mr.. Ian
eastern We have not seen him yet.
Come along, Joe, we are civil and are
trying to give all our children good
education, and we need you in the BUSH
ness. II we can't get free schools, we
can get subscription schools.
Mr.. Louis Perreand has decorated his
residence with a fine $75 90 organ,
which Mrs. Perreand and her two little
daughters appreciate very much. Will
others do likewise?
We had full attendance at Sunday
School last Sunday. So many that the
young mems class, with Mr. Louis Per
reand teacher, had to go out doors to
recite their lessons, for the want of
room. After the Sunday School closad
they marched over to Mr.. Louis Perre-
and's, where they had some delicious
vocal and organ music, Miss Ruth Scott,
organist. Horse Branch don't do things
by halves, they go "whole hog or
none."
We all send happy greetings to the
editor and the FARMERS force.
