Letter to ". S. Haryin.

Dear Sir: MIR. President of
a cotton mill at Union, S. Che don't
want to see his name in prlnt-had two
offers OF 500 gallons of paint: sl.30 and
Sl.25. Took the Sl.25: and got skinned:
He'd have got three-quarters skinned
if he'd have taken the other.
The Sl.3O was full-gallon; the Sl.25
was Is per cent short. The fuIl-meas-
ure paint was adulterated 40 per cent:
the short-measure paint was adulterat-
ed 45 per cent, besides benzine in the
oil. don't know how much.
Deyoe lead-and- zinc wasn't sold in
the town then.
1t don't pay to monkey with paint.
Devoe costs less than any Of 'em: not
BY the gallon, OF course: by the house
and year. That's how to reckon it. Go
by the name.

messing in the kerosine oil business.
but must dabble in guano too. | don t
see anv chance but for us 70 write to
Mr. Rockfellow and tell him how the
thing is. don't know what the rest OF
the BOYS think but here's about what |
would like to tell him:
Dear Mr.. Rockefellow: We received
YOUR letter saying as how you was 60
inc to charge US heap more for guano
this year than YOU ever did before, and
saving as how you would have to 40
that to keep even with the other trust
business, and as how you couldent break
a farmer no how. You are rlghtthere,
Mr.. Rockfellow, you can't break a
farmer until YOU break his neck. But
we amt going to let you set down on
on us that way. Our advice TO you Is 10
build big shed somewhere and pie up
all your guano under it and let 1T stay
there until we call for 1t, and II we
never call tor it. don't think the time
long. We have to use your kerosene
oil but we don't have to buy your guano.
We are going to experiment on pig
compost pile this year.
Yours truly,
The FARMERS.
That would be a pretty big pill TO
swallow but we can do it, and I say lets
swallow pill, box and all if they don't
get the prices OF guano right. 1T not
a fact that we are obliged TO use guano.
No sir, it would be pretty tough TOR a
while. But we could very well swallow
that, along with the other tough things
that have to go. We wouldent make
as much cotton but we'd have less eX-
pense. We don't bestir ourselves to
make enough homemade manure, any
how. l believe it. would be God-send
to the farmer if every pound of guano
iu the Z. S. could be destroyed, or put
beyond the farmers reach for one year
Just to throw the farmer on his own re-
sources. and let him prove to the world
and himself what he could do. And l
tell YOU it would surprise you, for the
farmer is one of the most resourcetul
animals that lives. Why he can live on
brierberries one half the year and go
fishing the ether half Unnecessary. Now
look here fellows, make up your minds
to work harder Than YOU ever did,
make more home made manure, buy
less euano and next fall pay out and be
happy.
Yours truly,
JOHN SLAB.

Remarkable Work Published by Funk 6 Wag-
nails and Written BY An Author OF Stand
ard Dictionary, Is Filled With Misstatements.

There has been handed to the Hawaii
Promotion Committee copy of the
#..Annerican Colonial Handbook on
whose title page appears the follow
ing:
Ready Reference book of facts and
figures, historical, geographical and
commercial about Cuba, the Phil
lipines. Porto Rico, Hawaii and Guam,
bv Thomas Campbell Copeland of the
STANDARD Dictionary staff. assisted by
Maria sa1tera and Maurice Magnus.
Second Edition. Published by Funk &
wagnans. New York and London,
1892"
In the preface. which is signed ''T.
C. c., occurs this paragraph:
1.-THE most reliable of the worlds
authorities have been consulted and
compared for historical, geographical
and general data. There is a respon-
sib1e authority behind every statement
made, every answer given. Random or
hearsay assertions find no place, know
ingly, within any of the sections.
Numerous historical facts appear now
for the first time in English. This is
also true of much information under
various other heads
Hawaii occupies section four of the
alleged handbook, and its historical
references rather closely follow ac-
cepted history. The remainder of the
matter is glaringly erroneous.
The date, 1899. indicates the compile
ton of the volume after the passage
of the annexation resolution. After
describing the location of the islands,
the value of the islands as a naval
post, the statement is made in answer
to question of Which island is the
most picturesque
From the anchorage. Lahaina, the
capital of Maui, is the most pictures
que"
Kauai is declared to be the most i'm
portant island of the group, and the
statement is further made that Kauai
is difficult of access in unfavorable
weather as it SIS cut off from Oahu
Kauai is declared to be the Oldest is
land and the first to receive the bene-
fits Of civilization.
1.-THE small island of Niihau is said
to be noted for its rich deposits of
guano, controlled by several business
houses of Honolulu In further dis
cussion of Kauai the nIains on the
south side are declared to be favorable
for the cultivation of tobacco. The
answer continues: THE plains of Ka-
uaf also yield in great luxuriance the
wild cotton tree which grows in pro-
fusion, unsurpassed even in tropical
lands.''
Under the caption of winds are some
really remarkable statements. 1t is
said that the one called Mamuku is
periodical, it being described as vio--
lent gust which blows from the noun
tains toward the coast. In another

YOU WILL NOT

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty everybody
knows; but it is seldom Or never
that any large business house is
guilty of them, no matter what
line of trade it follows. There
can be no permanent success of
any kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief, as they deserve.
Now many persons are, neverthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum
bugged and deluded; especially
are they slow to place confidence
in published statements of the
merits of medicines. The effec-
tive modern remedy known as
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
is as safe and genuine an article
to purchase as -four, silk or cot
ton goods from the mills of
manufacturers with a worldwide
reputation. We could not afford
to exaggerate its qualities or mis-
represent it in the least; and it
is not necessary. It is palatable
as honey and contains the nu-
tritive and curative properties of
Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted
by us from fresh cod livers, COM
bined with the Compound Syrup
of Hypophosphites and the Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry;
and how valuable such blend
ing of these important medicinal
SCENTS must be is plain to every
body. 1t is beyond price in In
somnia, Anemia, Weakness and
lack of Nervous Tone, Poor
Digestion, Lung Troubles and
Blood Impurities. Science can
furnish nothing better-perhaps
nothing so good. DR.. w. 81.
Daife, of Canada, says: "I have
used it in my practice and take
pleasure in recommending it as
valuable tonic and reconstruc-
tive" 1t is remedy that can
afford to appeal to its record
and represents the science and
knowledge of bright and aggres-
siye medical investigation. "One
bottle convinces." At chemists.

GRIP CONVALESCENCE

There's nothing better than
SCOTS Emulsion after the
grip. When the fever is gone
the body is left weak and ex-
hausted; the nervous system
is completely run down and
vitality is low.
Two things to do: give
strength to the whole body
and new force to the nerves.
SCOTS Emulsion will do it;
contains just what the worn
out system needs.
Rich blood, healthy flesh,
resistive force, more and better
nourishment are what SCOTS
Emulsion supplies to the
convalescent.
SCOTS Emulsion IS the
original and has been the
standard emulsion of cod liver
oil for nearly thirty years.
Why buy the new, untrled,

of cod liver oil, when you can
buy what IS sure to help YOU?
