FEATS

" ton of the subway that attracted widespread
attention was building the tunnel under the Harlem
river without resorting to compressed air, as is usual
in such cases. The United States authorities required
that a maximum depth of twenty feet should be left
clear at low tide, and thus the elevation of the tunnel
roof was fixed. The sub-contractor. instead of using
a shield or some of the well-known methods requiring
air, excavated the river bottom to about
grade level by means of a dredge. The material
removed was mud with clay beneath it.
After the excavation had been made he drove
twelve-inch tongued and grooved sheet piling into
the bottom of the river, and then, by the aid of divers,
fixed cross braces in places. The water was then
pumped out. and the coffer-dam was found to be
sufficiently tight to prevent leakage, although the

The underground station platforms are from two

sixteen feet wide. and have from two t. four stairway

greatest care has been taken and the best Of taste
has been exercised in the arrangement and decoration
of these stations. The City Hall station, for instance.

gives one more an idea of the lobby of 4

work was done at a cost of eighty thousand
dollars. The floors of the platform are of
concrete. The walls are of brick. enameled
tiles, faience or ~terra-cotta. TIL roof is
domed, and the prevailing %colors, cream and
green, are well brought out by hundreds of
i~ncandescent lights, grouped in clusters. To
the north and south the four-tracked
subway lengthens out of sight, lost in the
white glare of the electric lights.

In his statement on the matter

would rather that Mississippis re-
presentation in congress be reduced to
four members of the lower house and
two senators with the race problem set
tied than to have four senators and six
teen congressman with the present state

will consider the proposition seriously.

will hold even the White House spasm

know what the next congress will do.
but | do know that the white people of
Mississippi will continue to govern Mis-

hear the claim etup that the time when
too large cotton crop conid be grown
by the Sonth was thing OF the past, as
was cent cotton, yet in spite OF all
this claim by self-constitnted wiseacres
proyed as evanescent rs air, the 'hing
has come 10 pass. That there is no
cause for hamuering down the price OF
cotton to what 1t was following the
government report all but the speculat-
ora will admit, as the consumption has
increased until 4 twelve million bale
crop will not leave auv great surplus
Yet the condition confronts us and 1t lies
with the farmer himself to inaugurate
remedial measures, but until they organ
tze and all live up TO the organization
and the rules set down by it the specu-
iators will play with them as cat does
with mouse. Now the old cry goes
mp from many papers: ''Reduce the
acreage. Yet in the next breath these
same papers are advising over-produc
tion in other lines. setting up the Oft
exploded fallacious claim that there
can be no overproducting in some other
lines-we mean the peach industry
Just rs there Is an overproduction OF
cotton there will be an overproduction
of peaches, with the gain on the side of
the cotton grower, that he can get some
sort Of price and find market for his
product, and only loses one seasons
labor, while the grower OF peaches loses
three or four years labor and aside
may find there is no market at ALL The
wise grower will not risk his all on any

TYPHOID GERMS.

The microscope shows that In the blood
of every person suffering from typhoid the
little germs can be found as shown above.
They are supposed TO get into the water or
milk we drink. The germs multiply so
that one germ is capable of producing
about one hundred trillion germs in twen-
ty-four hours. That Is why If they ever
get into the water supply OF town they
multiply so fast that nearly everybody
drinking the water comes down with the
disease There are exceptions, however,
and they are the persons whose health Is
perfect, whose blood is pure, and liver
active When the germs get into healthy
body they are thrown of with the other
poisons. Recent Chicago statistics show
that one eighth Of all the deaths in the
past two years In that city have resulted
from pneumonia.
The best advice we can give is to put the
body into perfectly sound, healthy condi.
ton. BE assured that you have rich, red
blood and an active liver.

Rocked the Mansfield Train.

Mrs Bert Hoffman and little daughter
had narrow escape from injury Thurs
day, through the viciousness Of an I'M
known boy. They were passengers on
the train for Mansfield and AS they We're

bridge boy who did not appear to be
over 10 years of age threw a rock at the
coach striking the window and scatter

and daughter Fortunately neither of
them were struck by the missile and,
aside from slight cuts from flying frag-
ments of the broken glass, escaped un-
injured. Conductor Sheets witnessed

Coal Ashes For The Garden.

The almost general advocacy of
coal ashes for the garden without
stipulation az to the differences of
value on different soils is wrong.
No one will dispute that on GER
tain soils and for certain crops
coal ashes have a value, but the
statement frequently made that
"too many coal ashes cannot be
usedn is misleading, Where an.
thracite coal Ia used and more or
less wood ashes IL mixed with the
coal ashes, the value of the whole
is increased, and they are esspec.
tally valuable for melons, grapes
and strawberries, used in moder.
ate quantities, and particularly on
heavy, rather stiff soil, On light
sandy soil coal ashes seould be
used with extreme moderation,es.,
pecially If they are ut all coarse
for on such soils they act simply
by making an already leachy soil
more porous. Good results are
frequently obtained by spading
coal ashes in around orchard trees,
especially plum and pear trees.
In the latter case they seem to
have % good effect IN subduiDg
the blight. II may be seriously
questioned whether the main val
ne Of coal ashes does not lie IN
the effect they have In tightening
or making more porous stin,
heavy soils, Use ashes, by oil
means, whenever an wherever
they are found valuable, but take

Grip Quickly Knocked Out.

Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and my.
self contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst kind
of la grippe with all its miserable symp-
toms, says Mr,J s. Egleston of Maple
Landing, Iowa. Knees and joints
aching, muscles sore, heads topped up,
eyes and nose running, with alternate
spells Of chills and fever. We began
using Chamberlain s Stomach and Liver
Tablets. and by its liberal use soon
completely knocked out the grip. -
