Have Tobacco Reports Also Been Tam
pered With?

WASHINGTON, July 14.-Through
the receipt of numerous communi
cations from the South and state
ments appearing in the press at
various times that the statistics of
the Department of Agriculture on
tobacco we're being manipulated in
the interest of the so-called Tobacco
Trust, Secretary Wilson has begun
an inquiry into the subject Pend
ing the investigation, the publica-
tion of the tobacco statistics of the
several districts will be. held up, al
though the regular monthly figures
by States will be given out on Mon
day next.
It wa stated at the Department to-
day that special agents have been
sent to the dark tobacco districts of
Tennessee and Kentucky for the
purpose of verifying or correcting
the Departments figures. This ac-
ton Mr.. Hyde. the chief statistician
said, was in Difference to the senti-
ment which had been engendered
that the Departments figures we're
wholly incorrect. Mr.. Hyde has
been given direct charge of the in
vestigation which it is expected will
be concluded within two or three
weeks.

Old Southern Remedies.

What is one mans food is another
mans poison, but it is vouched for
by an old Southerner that the follow
ing remedies will benefit seven out
OF ten persons
For alcoholism try buttermilk.
1t destroys the desire for whiskey.
Whey greatly relieves dropsy.
Calomel applied to cuts or sores
relieves pain and heals wounds.
Not too much and don't get wet.
Kerosene will cure sore throat.
Consumptives should try it. Take
a tablespoonful at q time. Hold
nose.
Bathing the head in cold water
will prevent any one from taking
colds easily. Better commence in
the summer time.
Ice applied between the shoulders
and the back Of the head stops the
bleeding at the nose.
Balsam apple applied to a dogbite
affords relief.
Keep onions in all sick rooms.
Onions will turn black where con-
tagious diseases exist and disinfect
the room.
Try cold water for tired feet.

Do Editors Really Work.


There seems TO be an impression
in some quarters that editors do not
really have any serious hard work
TO do. Not many days ago young
boy in Raleigh, whose father is q
successful banker and who has a re-
lative who is an editor. was asked
by his mother: ''Son, who does the
most work, your father or Uncle x ?"
The little fellow was astounded at
the questions and answered: I'm
Gle X does not do any work at all.
All he does is TO sit at his desk and
read papers and write. He doesn't
work"
There may be grown up people
who entertain the same idea about
the work of an editor. In order to
show how erroneous their idea is we
give the following detailed account
Of the daily labors OF North Caro-
line editor, as recounted by himself.
In the last issue Of the Marshville
Home, Editor Green thus tells Of how
he employs his time:
Somebody asked the editor Of
this paper ifhe liked 70 work. Well,
no. not as anybody has ever heard
Of. We generally get up at4o'clock
in the morning. light our lantern
(the one we took on an advertising
bilD feed the stock, milk the COW,
and then hang our rejecting lantern
on the wood house and cut wood un-
ill daylight. Then we wake the
superintendent of our farm and con-
suit with him about the farm work.
1t doesn't do any good to wake him
before day. II we do he goes back
to sleep and gets his nap out, which
takes until sun-up, II he hasn't been
'possum hunting in the early part
of the night. In the latter case he
doesn't get up when the sun does.
We then drive to town, cut wood
again for the Office heater, look over
our mail which sometimes has be-
tween cost and retail price an ad-
vertiser who wants to sell US some
of his stuff at cost and take the diff
ference between cost and retail price
in advertising in our publication,
and incidentally informs us that
other publishers are jumping at the
chance. After dumping that kind
of correspondence into the waste
basket, we begin to fill our regular
position which is editor, foreman.
composition, proof-reader, business
manager, advertising writer and so
licitor, pressman, job-printer, re-
porter and for the past two weeks
we have been taking little extra
work, such as distributing a second
hand mailing list and putting our
own mailing list in type. We quit
the Office about sun down, drive q
mile and q half home and proceed
again to feed up things, milk the
COW, Gu: and carry in wood and doa
hundred other little turns incident
al to our occupation. OF course we
are q moderately busy man but we
can't say we are especially fond of
work. We make this explanation
lest somebody might misrepresent
us by saying that we really like to
work.

The Editors Reolv.

A certain farmer. who was an in
fidel. sent 10 the editor of q weekly
newspaper the follow letter:
Sir have been trying an ex-
pertinent. / have field of Indian
corn that ploughed on Sunday. /
planted il on Sunday. / did all the
cultivating that il received on SUM-
day. / gathered the crop on Sun
day. and on Sunday hauled ID 10 my
barn; and ] find that / have more
corn per acre than has been gather
ed by any OF my neighbors during
this October.
What triumphant sneer lay be-
hind these words of the skeptic?
But one thinks the light faded from
his eyes as he read the sentence
that the editor appended TO his
letter:
IN. B.-God does not always
settle His accounts in Octoberl"

Maxims For Men And Womeu

Maxims For Men And Women.
When q woman says she wouldn t
marry the best man alive she speaks
the truth; she couldn't get him.
Tomorrow is the reef that has
cost the life of many q business
man.
If every woman's face was her
fortune there would be a run on the
veil market.
Justice might take your part, but
injustice takes your all.
Too many irons in the fire eat up
much expensive coal.
Don't take q polite acknowledge
ment for an encore.
Fhe man who iumpsat conclusions
usually falls with them.
Curiosity ofttimes hides behind
the mask of solicitude.
Everything comes to him who
waits, except the waiter.
When you are arguing with q
fool, just remember the fool is doing
the same thing.

The editor Of the Stevens County
Reveille has gotten tired Of hearing
mother praised and father neglected.
and has scratched Of q few lines Of
glowing tribute to dad:
I've happened in o home the 9TH
or night" he says, land saw the
legend Of old. "What In home with
out a mother?" Across the room
was another brief. God bless our
home
Now, what's the matter with
God bless our dad?' He gets up
early, lights the fire, boils an egg,
grabs his dinner pail and wipes OF
the dew with his boots while many
o mother is sleeping. He makes
the weekly hand out for the butcher,
the grocer, the milkman and baker,
and his little pile is badly worn be-
fore he has been home an hour.
he stands of the bailiff and keeps
the rent paid up.
IF there is a noise during the
night dad is kicked in the back and
made TO go down stairs to find the
burglar and kill him. Mother darns
the socks, but dad bought the socks
in the first place and the needles
and yarn afterward. Mother does
up the fruit. Well. dad bought il
all. and jars and fruit cost like the
mischief. Dad buys chickens for
Sunday dinner, carves them himself
and draws the neck from the ruins
after every one else is served.
What is home without a mother?"
Yes, that is all right. but what is
home withou at father? Ten chances
to one it is a boarding house,
father is under a slab and the land
lady is the widow. Dad, here's 10
you; you've got your faults-you
may have lots of 'em-but you re all
right, and we will miss you when
GU re gone"
