In most plants, to put it simply, the
leaves are the mouths and stomachs Of
the organism; their thin and fiattened
blades are spread out horizontally in
wide eXpanse, covered with tiny
throats and lips which suck in carbonic
acid from the surrounding air and dis
integrate it in their own cells under
the influence of sunlight. In the prick
ly pears, on the contrary, it is the fat
tened stem and branches which under
take this essential operation in the life
of the plant--the sucking in Of carbon
and giving out of oxygen, which are to
the vegetable exactly what the eating
and digesting of food are TO the animal
organism. In their old age, however,
the stems of the prickly pear display
their true character by becoming
woody in texture and losing their ar
dculated, leafike appearance.

As Necessary In Our Daily Life as
In Our Daily Food.


How could we get on without saN? ?
In our daily food, as in our daily life, a
little of it is necessary, and the absence
Of it takes away from the flavor of ev-
erything we eat. The salt of life"
which we hear about signifies the
health. vigor and wit which we find in
life. There was tinHe in countries far
from the sea when primitive man nev-
er used salt in his food, and it was
only when nations advanced in civili-
zation that salt became an absolute ne
cessity.
But it was not alone as food that salt
was valued. Among the ancients salt
spring was regarded as a gift of the
gods, and it was believed that any salt
found in the soil lent it a peculiar sane
tity and made it place where prayers
were most readily heard. Every meal
that included salt had a certain sacred
character, creating a bond of piety and
friendship between host and guest;
hence the expression, "There is salt
between u.s." meaning friendship, and
to be untrue to salt' means to be dis
loyal or ungrateful.
In the middle ages, when all classes
and degrees sat at the same board,
they were placed according to rank,
above or below the great saltcellar,
which always stood in the middle and
marked the dividing social line. above
the salt' meant 'of high degree" Be
low the salt were the yeomanry, serfs
and vassals of the feudal days. A good
description of this custom may be
found in "Ivanhoe" where Cedric, the
Saxon, entertains his vassals and
friends.
A pinch of salt is always considered
lucky in cooking. To take anything
with pinch of salt means to excuse
or make allowances for it. A salt is
n sailor To salt ones conversation
means to make it sparkle. Salt is al
ways employed in a sense of benefit or
strength.
The Bible has many references to
salt among them being "Ye are the
salt of the earth," Matthew V, 13, and
st. Paul says, "Let your speech be al
ways with grace seasoned with salt"
Salt is used by Catholics in baptism
They consider it a symbol Of wisdom
and put a few grains in the mouth of
the person baptized,

Stale bread soaked in milk and
squeezed dry is a good feed for young
ducks.
Only medium sized eggs should be
set. Extra large or small ones are apt
to produce deformed chicks.
Turkeys are not so sure to come
home as other fowls; hence it is good
plan to mark them in some way.
Feed the young chicks often if you
would have them growing rapidly, but
do not feed more at time than they
will eat up clean in a few minutes.
Destroy the old nests as soon as the
hens come off with the chicks. The
safest and best plan is to burn all of
the old material.
Healthy fowls pick up their food
quickly and relish it. When they go at
it lazily, pick up grain or two and
then stop something is wrong,
Never shut the fowls up in such close
quarters that they cannot take enough
exercise to promote digestion. Hens
treated in this way will soon become
too fat to lay.

HIS LAST HOPE REALIZED.

In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers In 1889, the editor of this paper
was among the many seekers after for
tune who made the big race one fine
day in April During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping upon
his claim. he encountered much bad
water, which, together with the severe
heaf, gave him very severe diarrhoea
which it seemed almost impossible to
check, anu along in June the case became
so bad he expected to die. One day one
of his neighbors brought him one small
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as last hope.
A big dose was given him while he was
rolling about on the ground in great
agony, and in few minutes the dose
was repeated. The good effect Of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for fortnight. That one
little bottle worked complete cure, and
he cannot help but feel grateful. The
season for bowel disorders being at hand
suggests this item. For sale by Acker-
man & Stewart. 6

nrove a failure. Newspapers pub
fishers may have their price same as
other people, but it isn't 800.

Now that A. o. Wright of Jackson
vile 50 strongly insists on his candi-
dacy for congress being taken seri-
Ously it behooves all good citizens to
cease regarding it as joke and do
all within their power to assist Mr..
Wright in his delusion. There isn't
II thing to be said against the per-
sonal character of Mr.. Wright, but
for II man asking so high an honor at
the hands of the democratic party it
must be confessed that there is seri-
Gus objection to him politically.
We don't know so much about how
they regard political independents
in Jacksonville, but down in this
neck o the woods there is more than
a two years probation required ere
they are given seat with the lead
ers. Then there must be some show
of penitence before we will even con-
sent to receive them on probation.
Two years ago Mr.. Wright bolted the
democratic party an ran as an indie
pendent candidate for County Judge
of Duval county. He got only few
votes. Mr.. Wright may have for
gotten this but the rank and file of
democracy has not. His platform is
an imported One--he wants to reme-
dy affairs in Pennsylvania 50 that a
repetition of last winters coal strike
will be impossible. During that
strike our sylnpathies were with the
miners, now they are aroused in be-
half of Mr.. A. o. Wright.

amont the State troops. We are re-
ceiving at the office in Tallahassee
on an average of thirty or forty ap-
plicatiOns for enlistment every day,
and the prospects are that this will
keep up until the time for enlist

What Il remarkable constitutional
lawyer this William Sherman Jen-
nings, governor of Florida, has sud-
denly developed! The legislative
appropriation bill, which, as it
| finally passed both branches of the
legislature, carried $422,O00 for state
purposes. Now this constitutional
lawyer proceeds to veto $255,2I6 of
this amount on the ground that it
was unconstitutionally appropriated.
| OF the amount vetoed SlS7,2l6 is
taken from appropriations made to
| the seven state schools. No, not
quite that, either, for the appropria-
tiOn to the "University of Florida
was not mOlested. Cats were only
made on six of the seven state
schools. Now the question natur-
ally arises; If an appropriation of
$500 to the State Normal school at
DeFuniak for the purchase of land
is unconstitutional, and an appropri-
alton of $4,000 to the South Florida
Military college at Barlow is cut out
| because of its uncOnstitutiOnality
why is not the $4,000 appropriated
to the "University of Florida" for
building purposes, also unconstitu-
tional?
If the constitution of Florida
follows n $500 appropriation to De
Funiak, and runs down a $4,000 ap-
preparation before it reaches the en-
virons of Barlow, bow does it hap
pen this constitution didn't overtake
the Lake City money and capture
that, too?
There can be but one answer. The
constitution was overworked. The
governor has made too heavy de-
mands ON that document.
And then it does seem a bit
strange that such men as Judge
! Rancy, one time Chief Justice OF
the Supreme Court, and Senator
BlOunt, one of the ablest lawyers in
the state, never discovered anything
unconstitutional about those appro-
priations.

bill, introduced by Senator Kirk of

ers to publish all the general acts
passed by the legislature aud ap-
proved by the governor. In consid-
Grafton for the work each paper so
publishing is TO receive from the

it is easy to see that it will cost the

of Washington, have each instituted
suit in the Circuit Court Of Jefferson
county against the editors Of the Farm
ers' Advocate at Charles Town for IL
bel, claiming $4,000 damages in each
case. They have also brought suits
against Sheriff J. Davis Billmyer and
against Mr.. Billmyer and his wife,
claiming the same amount of damages
in each case. The suit against the
editors of the Advocate are based upon
alleged ibelous publications last June;
those against Mr.. Billmyer for publ
cations concerning the same affair; and
against Mr.. Billmyer and his wife fol
a communication of which she is alleg'
ed to be the author and which was
printed in the Advocate. The tota.
amount of damages in the SIX suits Il
$4,000. All the suits grow out Of
the charges made against Miss Win

Fatal Runaway Accident.

Mrs. John Boyd was killed within
sight of her home at Myerstown, this
county, last Saturday evening by eth
er jumping from or being thrown from
her buggy. Mrs. Boyd was driving
alone, and it is thought that, as she
was descending steep hill near her
home, trace broke, causing the horse
to run away. The Boyd residence is
located on the banks Of the Shenan-
doah river, which is very deep at the
crossing and is not fordable. About
6 o'clock the horse, with part of the
harness hanging to him, reached the
house. Realizing that something was
wrong, a search was instituted. 1t was
found that the horse had swan the
river, leaving the buggy near the bank,
and Lad then gone home. Halfway
