The Wrong Remedy.

A prominent newspaper is authority
for the report that man named John
Thompson, of Ottoway, Kansas, had
a finger amputated the other day a,
the result Of putting chemicals on a
wart.
One Of the leading journals Of
Missouri comments on the incident in
a tone Of righteous indignation and
says there will be but little public
sympathy for the man who lost his
finger.
"The idea Of putting chemicals on
a wart when everybody knows that
the scientific way to remove warts is to
touch them with the gizzard Of a chick
en- and then bury the gizzard at the
left-hand corner Of the grave Of a
politician, saying; Like loves like;
come like, take like"

Edtor Hcrdid.-I have been read

and skilled laborers which are being
turned out from the Hampton school,

hunt for this, in my opinion, rare bird,
| stumbled on this contrast: | stopped
at a country store for a mid day rest
and asked for something to eat for man
and beast. The wants Of the latter
were promptly supplied, and for my
meal ! was referred to "od aunt Judyu

served with a. tempting lunch as could

gradients at hand. ate and was salts

halt at another country store, and put
in like plea for creature comforts.
Again the horse was given all he could
eat, and was directed to another home
in sight where | might also be fed.
The lady" in charge received me
graciously, and promptly agreed to do
the best she could, and went to work
on the inpromptu luncheon" / had
rarely seen eggs floating on more grease
or bread burdened with more "sody",

moved with offensive dignity, but
could no more cook than a eat. On
inquiry learned that she was a Hamp-
ton graduate, and though she could
roll her "25" she knew absolutely no
thing Of bread making, or even egg
frying, and pity the man who has
to feed on such stuff. He might be-

Death Of an Infant.

After brief illness, lasting only a
few hours, Bertha, infant Of Mr.. and
Mrs. f. f. Pitney, died at an early
hour Tuesday morning. The suffering
Of the little one for several hours was
intense. Mother, physicians and
friends present did all they could to
alleviate the pain but relief came only
when LIES breath had departed.
She has passed away,
Like gentle breath.
And her eyes are closed with the sleep Of
death.
Tie leaves ON the trees Will huttcr and fan,
And the drifting SHOWS will cover au,
But she will peacefully, calmly rest
Forever happy,

The funeral took place from the res

Negro Man Killed.

An unknown negro man was found
dead Wednesday on the Norfolk and
Western Railways track, near Moran
station. He had evidently been struck
by the local freight coming this way,
but whether he was riding on the cars
and fell or was hit by the engine while
crossing or lying on the track is not
known. His head was badly mashed,
and death must have been instan-
taneOus.
Passenger train No. 3 stopped and
picked up the remains, bringing them
through Farmvile en- route, probably,
to Roanoke.

us or keep us waiting long.
