but the strong point OF the book is its
earnest teaching that power, whether
financial or governing, must remain III
the hands of the people. The strong
man in politics has no place in Mr.. Ill
tons best OF all possible worlds; he that
would be greatest shall be the servant,
not the master of his fellows. In con-
struction and in style the book is in
tinitely superior to "Miss PettlcoatS,
and in his treatment of subject much
more difficult than that of an historical
novel, Mr.. Tilton shows that he has
made great progress. He is still too
diffused, and the exuberance OF his adj
jectives is equaled only by the number
of his inaccuracies in their application.
He chooses to use suggestive names,
as, for instance, Markham Miller, Cali
fornan poet, Phillips Lloyd, orator
from Massachusetts,, and he has one or
two other amiable weaknesses, but
nevertheless he has written a story
sure to exercise good influence, and
also a pretty piece of fiction. Those
who care to detect real man in the
hero, John Peter Norton, with his
fondness for sport, his determination
that an American horse shall win the
great American handicap, will find the
task as futile as it is easy, but the
points of difference are so much more
numerous than the POINTS OF RESENT
blance that John Peter Norton is not to
be regarded as a portrait. &. Nj. Clark

South Street in Packet Ship Days.

If anyone familiar with South Street
thirty to forty years ago, from RooSe-
welt to Whitehall Street, should walk
through it to-day, he would not only
recall how sailing vessels and the
American flag have disappeared, but
that hardly a merchants name remains
on the signs with which South Street
was familiar at that time. There is
not location in any other part of the
port of New York which is SO sugges-
tive of "reminiscences of ships and sea
as this once busy thoroughfare. In for
mer times the old packet lines to Liver
pool, London and Havre, the famous
clipper ships for San Francisco and
elsewhere, and smaller vessels for Nor
folk, Richmond, Charleston, savannah.
Mobile, New Orleans and Cuban ports
monopolized the space from Coentles
Slip to Roosevelt Street; while the
canal fleet filled old Coenties Slip and
the intervening piers to Whitehall
Street. Few steamships could be seen
along this entire water front. Now,
with the exception of few foreign
sailing ships and an occasional schoon-
er for domestic ports steamers and car
floats fill the wharves, and many busl-
ness firms in no way connected with
shipping occupy the buildings opposite
where years ago all were interested In

A spot Hole" in the Road.

The greater part of Uncle Joe's
HIP at Lower Sunset has slid out and
gone to the foot, leaving ''pot-hole'
so miry that should a horse get into it
it would be necessary to place a buoy
there to mark the spot where he disap-
peared What an opportunity to try
the experiment of opening the road
there and throwing in the old stone wall
to be found on either side Well wager
a tin whistle that If this was done there
will be no such bog hole there next
spring as you will now find.-Deer Isle
Messenger.
1t would not be hard to find many
such places on the mainland, and which
might be as easily remedied; bnt it will
probably be left to future generations
to use common sense in making and

Paine'S Celery
Compound
Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
Make Life Miserable.

Sick and nervous headaches are amongst
the worst ills of life. The man or woman who
is subject to headache at irregular intervals,
goes through life bearing a load OF misery
and wretchedness that is terrible TO think
of.
Headaches as a rule, result from a dis
ordered condition of the nervous system.
Mental excitement, loss of sleep, bodily
fatigue, and disordered digestion are exciting
causes. When the brain becomes tired and
dehihtated, the whole nervous system is weak
ened, and headaches result. If the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive, and digestion
delanged, headaches invariably follow. To
cure and prevent headache, the nervous sys-
TEN must be strengthened and vitallzed.
The most persistent cases of headache, nervous
teebleness, and sleeplessness, are permanently
cured by paine's Celery Compound; it is the
great reconstructant Of the nervous system.
Mrs. Henry Westrick, St. Clair, Mich, tells
of her release from suffering as follows:-
a. have been troubled with dyspepsia ana
sick headache for number of years. About
every week l would have bad spell of sick
headache but since | began using Paine s
Celery Compound, my dyspepsia is gone, and

And weanling sqnirrels that learn to CREEP

Had a Practical Proof.

Early in the sixteenth century the
natives Of Porto Rico plotted to kill
the Spaniards on the island. There
was much doubt, however, as to
whether or not 1t was possible to kill
n Spaniard. Many of the natives in.
sisted that 1t was not. Finally 1t was
decided to make an experiment. A
young Spaniard who was passing
through the Indian village was hos
pitably received and fed and then O
number of natives accompanied him
on his journey. When he arrived at q
river his companions offered to carry
him across. The young man accepted
and was taken up by two men and car
ricd into the water on their shoulders.
Arriving near the middle OF the river
they threw him in and held him down
until he ceased to struggle. Then they
carried him ashore with profuse apollo
giles, loudly proclaiming that they
stumbled by accident and calling upon
him to arise and continue his journey.
But the young man did not move and
finally the natives were convinced that
he was actually dead. Having secured
the proof they wanted the leaders Of

TOMATO CULTURE IN THE SOUTH.
Attains Its Highest Degree Of Perfection
In Mississippi.

Attains Its Highest Degree Of Perfection
In Mississippi.
The place where tomato culture can
be said to have attained it's highest de-
gree of perfection is Crystal Springs,
Miss, and the methods employed by
the growers Of that section can be
advantageously followed by every gar
dener, If not commercial grower. The
unusual feature of the system con.
sists in pruning the plants, and the plan
has been followed by the writer in
his home garden since 1895, when he
learned of it In the Florida winter to-
nato section.
Coincident with the appearance OF
the third leaf of young tomato plant
will come sucker or branch; and as
the plant grows, additional suckers
will appear in the axil Of each leaf
until vigorous plant will hive twenty
or more branches, the larger ones hav'
ing branches of their own, and the
whole plant spreading over an urea of
ten or twelve square feet. Such q
plant, of COURSE requires an immense
amount of soil nutrition and moisture
to support in follage. The Crystal
Springs planters set their tomatoes
somewhat nearer than do ordinary
growers-as close as three by three and
one-half fect-and when the first
sucker Is two inches lcng 1t is pinched
out, as are likewise all suckers appear
ing thereafter. Before the plant be-
gins to fall, light pine stakes nre driven
in the ground and the plants tied to
them with ordinary cotton strings
The tomato Is then trained up this
stake, requiring three or four tylngs,
until 1t reaches the top, four feet from
the ground. Then the bud Is pinched
out. This gives a plant with about
twelve or fourteen great leaves, four
times the size of the ordinary tomato
leaf, and five or six clusters of mag
nlficent, perfect fruit. The patch now
looks like n dlminutive orchard loaded
with fruit. Bushels of ripe tomatoes
are in plain sight MS the eye wanders
over the field. Under this method there
Is no danger Of tomatoes rotting OF
mildcwing; they rlpen seven or eight
days earlier than if the plants are
left to their own devices OF stnlked in
the ordinary way, and 1t is practicable
to get through the rows ut any time
aud keep down Objectionable weeds.
and perhaps the most important. the
plants having comparatively small
leaf surface for Transportation do not
require nearly so much moisture to
mature their fruit.
If a somewhat bushier plant Is de-
sired, the vine can be trained to two
instead of to single stem.-Scientilic
