"A kiss is q peculiar proposition
Of no use to one, yet absolute bliss
to two. The small boy gets it for
nothing the young man has to steal
it; and the old man has to buy it..
The baby's right, the lovers privilege,
the hypocritic's mask. TO a young
girl faith; to married woman hope,
and to an old maid, charity.
According to an exchange, the
man who went out to milk and sat on
a rock in the middle of the pasture
and waited for the COW to back up,
was brother to q man who kept n
store and wouldn't advertise because
he reasoned that the purchasing pub
lie would back up to his place of
business when it wanted something.

ance feature.
Every farmers son wants to be

trust magnate, and every trust
magnate hopes some day to own q
fancy farm and have choice breeds OF
chickens, COWS, horses and pigs to
look after. Every old sen captain
wishes to end his days on a nice farm
when he retires from sen. We end
, where we begin.
Those who attended the Farmers
institute at Pickens last Friday, the
Oath inst, were we'll paid. The ad
dresses by Profs. Newman, Morrison
and Upton were both entertaining
and instructive. Prof. Newman, in
his clear, simple and impressive style,
told of the necessity of thorough
preparation and rapid and shallow
cultivation in raising paying crops.
"To kill the grass and weeds," says
he, "should be but a secondary object
with the farmer. But stir the ground
that it may retain it's moisture. BY
recently collected statistics, Prof.
Morrison demonstrated the advan.
. tages Of, and demands for industrial
education. Dairying and stock
breeding were discussed by Prof
Upton. The meeting was opened
with music and called to order by j.
II. Newton.
