NEARLY one million emigrants arrived in this county during the past year. The labor market will soon have as many laborers as are needful, and when it gets so that there are two or three men for one job wages will come tumbling down again. The un- titled acres in the west will furnish occupation and a good living for all who desire to go and possess the lands. Both the country and the newcomer will be benefited more than if the emigrant re- mained in the congested cities of the land.

to give you an opinion so that when the other side is presented, and at great variance from your statement, he can reverse him. self and take pleasure in incur ring your displeasure. Remem- Der to see the court first, but if that does not meet your approval go to some lawyer, lay your case before him, tell him all that the other fellow did that was wrong, but stick to it that you did not do a thing, and of course, he will then tell you that you have splendid case and that he can win out for you. Should the other fellow tell a different story and you get left, you can just say he lied all the way through. When you get started stay in to win. Don't consider expenses, that's too small a matter. You know the officers have nothing else to do and that they must under the law obey you in issu- ing process. Finally when things are settled and you are in for the cost, it is proper to treat the officers just as you would any one else to whom you are in- debted, Expect them to divide up. In as much as they have trusted you for the service they have given you, they should be willing to make you fifty per cent discount to get you to settle, at the same time feel that it will be a great pleasure to serve you further.

IT is Topeka buyer who told a salesman that he must cut short his stay in New York and hurry home. He had, he said, just re- ceived wire from his wife tell ing him to hurry back to Kansas and rescue their only son, who had foolishly climbed a stalk of corn in the garden. The corn had grown upward more rapidly than the boy could slide down ward, and axes and saws were of no avail, since the stalk grew so fast that it was impossible to chop twice in the same place. The last wire, avelred the Topeka buyer, stated that the boy was out of sight, but was presumably living on raw corn, as they pick ed up four bushels of cobs at the base of the cornstalk.

GENERAL JOE WHEELER, hero of two wars and one of the most prominent commanding officers of the confederacy, was again sighted at the New Orleans re. union. No provision was made for him in the parade. He says the same thing occurred at Dallas last year, and he believes it was because he had served in the United States army during the late war with Spain.

A gentleman who has had con . siderable experience in the law business hands us a few general rules that he has deduced from his observations and we here give them for the benefit of any one who can use them:

 Cough Remedy


 Mr. H. P. Burbage, a student at law, in Greenville, s. C., had been troubled for four or five years with a continuous cough which he says, "greatly alarmed me, causing me to fear that was in the. first stage of consumption. :"
 MT. Burbage, having seen Chamberlain's Cough Remedy advertised, concluded to try it.. Now read what he says of it: "I soon felt a remarkable change and after using two bottles of the twenty five cent size, was per- manently cured.'' Sold by Green Forest Drug Co.

No, the ivory buttons you wear do
not represent the death Of an elephant
in the wilds OF Africa, your pearl but
tons were probably never nearer than
you took them to slie shell af bivalve
molIusk and the probabilities are that
no rubber tree was ever tapped to pro-
duce the hard rubber buttons that
adorn your overcoat Down In Central
America there Is fruit producing
palm that has quite metamorphosed
the button business and formed the
nucleus for one of the most important
Industries in the United States. The
seed Of this fruit contains milk that
is sweet to the taste and relished by
the natives. The milk when allowed
to remain in the nut long enough be-
comes indurated and turns into sub
stance as brittle and hard as the ivory
from the elephants tusk. The plant
that produces these nuts is called the
ivory plant. Most Of the buttons now
used In America, whether termed ivo.
ry, pearl, rubber, horn or bone, come
from this ivory plant. Thus the prob
abilities are that your buttons are
made from a vegetable milk, and they
grow on bushes.

field of several hundred acres that had
year. 1t wis as level as table and an
ideal feeding place for the quail. For
many years they had whistled, mated
and fed around the place all undis-
turbed until they became almost as
tame as barnyaid fowls. The owner
saw the dogs stand motionless, saw the
dandy sportsman pick his way gently
where they were, saw few birds rise
and two puffs of smoke, followed by
a nearly simultaneous report. Two
birds dropped. then the dogs retrieved.
and the game was handed to a monde
script negro lad whom the sportsman
had picked up somewhere, who had
tied the birds to string and wrapped
them around his body until he was
half hidden from view.
The gun was loaded and capped in
side of a minute. The performance was
repeated. The man never hurried, the
dogs, beautifully trained, never bum
gled, the gun never missed, and the
dandy had, in sporting parlance, never
turned a hair. Tie stockings were
a little colored by the chickweed, but
he was ready tc lead the minuet that
moment.
The Scotchman at first was furiously
angry, but as he saw the matchless
work of the trinity of destructive
agents man, gun. dog-s perfectly
blended into one. and beheld In the af
fected coxeomb the same metal which
under Rupert had again and again
broken the steel fronted squares of
Cromwell's Ironsides, he advanced and
asked his name, and when Ii was given
he answered, II might have known it."
And that's how Jack Mason won his
bet.

quires to keep it clean and healthy.

A SOLAR MOTOR.
Possibly Practical solution or Ahe
Sum Power Problem.


Sum Power Problem.
Many attempts have been made at
various times to use solar heat as d
source of power. A century or more
ago great burning glasses were con-
strCcted both in France and England
which developed Il heat intense enough
to melt iron, gold and silver At the
Paris exposition of 1878 an exhibit
that attracted much attention was a
sun engine which furnished the power
for printing press.
AT last practical solution OF the
problem seems 10 have been reached.
There has been set up ON Edwin Caws-
toms ostrich farm Mt Pasadena, Cal,
contrivance which performs its work
regularly and with certainty. From one
hour and a half after sunrise to half
an hour before sunset 1t drives d ten
horse power engine, raising fourteen
hundred gallons of water twelve feet
per minute. This Ia enough TO irrigate
about 500 acres of deciduous trees or
300 acres planted with orange trees.
The solar motor is In shape like a

substantial construction, having a
diameter of twenty three feet ut It's
widest part and OF fifteen feet at its
narrowest. The whole inside surface
is covered with mirrors, each two feet
long by three and one-half inches wide.
Nearly 1000 Of these long, narrow mir
rors catch the suns rays and reflect
their heat upon slim boiler just where
the handle of the umbrella would be.
The great reflector is set like an as.
Economical telescope. 1T Is so nicely
adjusted that one person can easily
move 1t in either direction. The boiler
is thirteen and one.half feet long and
holds 100 gallons OF water. When the
reflector is not working, the boiler Is
quite inconsnicuous, but when the con-
centrated heat from the mirrors is
focused on Ii it CLEANS like polished
silver. In little while it becomes 50
hot that stick held against 1t smokes
and bursts into flame. In about an
hour steam is generated and is con-
veyed from the head OF the boiler
through a flexible metal pipe to the
cylinder of the steam engine, being
thereafter used In the ordinary man

There was once man who admitted
