apart in 2foct rows. Give heavy mulch

When l opened The Constitution last
week the first words that met my gaze
was Plunlletts letter; but no Bill Arp
Side by side have they appeared for many
years but never again Will those familiar
words greet us weekly as they have
done for the last twenty-five years. How
we miss him is but a faint way to ex-
press our great GRIEF and sorrow We
win never find his like again. There
viii never be another Bill Arp. What
a vacancy he has left throughout our
beautiful southland. which he so dearly
loved. And if we miss him, how must
it he with the loved ones he left behind
him in the home where his presence
was continual sunshine, | l5LoW every
one that loved TO read his letters must
feel a deep sympathy for the grief

deeply grieved over the death Of any
one whom | had never met. But l hope
t. meet them and know them in heaven,
where We shall all know each other as
we are known. TO the dear ones at home
where death has recently thrown its
shadow, extend my deepest sympathy
May God comfort them.
Mrs. Angus Martin, Taylors Creek. Ga.
i have been a reader OF the Woman's
Kingdom for many years and during all
that time ! have diverted the Old adage
based on the Bible, which says lis
more blessed to give than to receive
but ! have at last laid everything aside
and come hoping to be able TO give II
only q little. / think the Kingdom is
the dearest part of the paper. If l had
written this only 81 few weeks earlier |
would have said the Kingdom and Bill
arp. but alas. he is no more. Oh, how
| shall miss his CHEEKY letters. Some of
the sisters write about their flowers and
as l. too, am a dear lover of them, en-
joy their letters so much. My yard is 50
dry and sandy ! can only grow the hardy
kind so ! have decided to give up the
ATTEMPT with the delicate ones. but [
some pretty hot house plans. so il any
of the sisters have any nice cuttings or
plants to spare and will send me some
j will return the favor in any way /
preciate their kindness very much NV
balSam vines are beautiful this year and
/ Will be glad to send seed to any one
for the postage. | also will have quanti-
ties of cosmos and zinia Seed later in the
season.
The article what To Eat and What
Not TO Eat In The Constitution of
Sc ptember T. struck me being very
yet somewhat distressing, for
with bacteria here and microbes etc,
there, we poor mortals will have to exist
upon air and that passed through some
kind of purifying machine attached to
our mouths and noses. Won't We look
beautiful? Something like horses with
muZzles on
Now, cleanliness is a great thing. but
there are extremists, and | believe they
are getting to be too numerous when it
comes to this subject of bacteria etc.
Here's an incident of one of these
extremists: Quite an interesting lady
had her most intimate friends call upon
her, and Immediately upon their de-
parture she seizes a damp cloth and Wig
orousIy wipes off the chairs her friends
occupied When asked why so particu-

have left on those chairs" / call that
