Morgan on tho Presidency.

.
Senator John 4. Morgan addressed tho
joint session of the Alabama Legislature,
at Montgomery, last Wednesday on the
relative functions of the State Legisla-
lures and Congress.
Since the adoption of the new State
Constitution, said Senator Morgan, there
has been less friction between the State
and the national government than before
within his knowledge, a period of seventy
years.
Senator Morgan expressed the belief
that the debates in Congress would rec
oncile all factions of the Democratic
party, and after the party had gotten
together the Democrats would elect the
next President. He must be an honest
man and man to represent the country.

Texas Fever IN Anderson.

j. A. Shirley, a dairyman near
Anderson, has had several COWS to
die recently and has several others
that are sick. He sent to Clemson
College for veterinarian, who in-
specLed the herd. This official gave
as his opinion that the COWS had
been suffering from Texas fever, and
that the disease had been caused by
ticks. He said that calf may have
ticks on it without injury, but that if
a COW grows to maturity without
having ticks and then acquires them,
they will cause what is known as
Texas fever, which will nearly al
ways prove fatal. 1t is said that no
certain cure has yet been found for
the disease. The expert advised
Shirley to get whiskey and give his
COWS half pint at time.

II Is named in honor of . CSerolee
Indian chief, who once resided there.
This was a splendid trip indeed.
The next place OF interest Yves
Tallulah Balls. We made the trip
70 the falls in the company of our
better half and little ones and John
Hill, wife and little ones. To de.
scribe what we saw on this trip
would require the universal knowl-
edge of Shakespeare or the vivid
imagination of a Milton, for here is
to be found the grandest scenery in
the United States. To stand on the
brink of the chasm and look for hum
dreds of fecS below and watch the
seething waters as they are dashed
into foam and again collected into q
placid aud sparkling pool, soon again
to make another leap on their way
to the valley far below, must inspire
the soul of the dullest man. The
romantic beauty of the nearby hills
and mountains, with the crystal
springs issuing from their sides,
prints upon the mind picture that
will never fade.
The next place of interest at which
we stopped was Demorest, founded
about twenty years ago by Northern
people. There is great deal of
manufacturing here in the way of
saddles, brooms and castings. A
splendid high school for both sexes
is run here, and we were told there
are $50 pupils. Around this place
we saw some of the finest peach
orchards we have ever seen, but they
failed to produce fruit this year,
owing to the late frost last spring.
With this great amount of capital
invested in land, trees, etc., in Hab-
ersham county, and no return for all
this outlay of time and capital, it
must have been very hard on the
investors. With this thought, the
idea occurred to me, could there not
be a plan devised whereby the effects
of late, cold springs can be overcome,
insuring at least partial crop every
yearp
In conclusion, let me say a few
words about those we broke bread
with at Demorest. We stopped with
William Soesbee and his interesting
family, which consists of his better
half, three beautiful daughters and
two bright little sons.
Old Georgia, with her big hearted
people, is grand old State.

Stomach Trouble Causes Heart Trouble.

Heart trouble is almost always caused
by stomach trouble. The stomach fails
to digest all the food, and the residue
ferments, forming excess of gas which
distends the walls of the stomach, caus-
ing pressure on the nerves and arteries
that lead to the heart. This causes the
heart to palpitate or skip beat occa-
sionally, or both, which is usually very
alarming, causing grave apprehensions.
Rydale's Stomach Tablets will prevent
this trouble. They digest the food and
prevent gas from forming in the stomach.
If there is no gas in your stomach your
heart will not trouble you. Sold by j.
