A DANGEROUS HABIT.
GIadstOne's Physician Gives warning Against a Growing Amer
 fcan Custom.


 ican Custom. The growing habit amongst Ameri- cans of taking a mint tablet or some other so called digestive after eating hearty meal, is something that Sir Andrew Clarke, MT. Gladstone's phy-
 sician. advises strongly against. say ing, Tt is absolutely dangerous to take into the stomach remedies which
 are popularly supposed to aid in the digestion of food"
 There Is nothing known to the sci- ence of medicine that can perform the work of the human stomach. Drugs do not and cannot digest the food. They simply decompose It. What can be more revolting or disgusting than the thought of taking something Into the stomach that is going to turn the good food you have eaten into mass of cor ruption.
 The only way to overcome indigestion and It's evil effects Is to remove all ir- ritatiop. congestion and inflammation from the stomach, liver and intestines, and Mi-o-na is the only agent known that will do this
 When a Mi-o-na tablet is taken be- fore each meal every trace of irritation and inflammation is removed from the stomach and digestive system, and those organs will extract from the food all that goes 10 make Boou, rlch blood, a firm muscle, steady nerves and a sound. healthy body.

MIR. COMER SPOKE.
His Address a Feature of the Morning
 Session.

His Address a Feature of the Morning
 Session.
 Features of the morning session were a short but assuring speech by Hon. B. B. Conner, President of the Alabama Railroad Commission. and lecture by Prof. E. Mead Wilcox. of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, on the subject of corn breeding in Alabama.
 Other talks and papers were deliv- cred by Professor c. l.. Hare of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute. Profess sor J. F. Duggar of the Alabama Poly technic Institute and MT. Troyer of Calhoun County.
 MT. Conner Is a member of the Live Stock Association and has been habit uaily attending the annual meetings for the last few years He has mani- fested much interest in the raising of live stock on his plantations in South east Alabama.
 MT. Conner said the cattle men and farmers generally have reason to hope for lower rates on both live stock and fertilizers in the near future. He ex- pressed the belief that the railroads would be made soon to see that it would be an investment to allow as low rates as exist in Mississippi and Georgia on account of the resultant tonnage that might be expected. He charged that in Mississippi one dollar will buy practically what two dollars will buy in Alabama at present when 1t comes to getting fertilizers delivered on the farms.
 "I only desire to call your attention, gentlemen" said MT. Conner, Ito the fact that as President of the Alabama Railroad Commission I made a motion at the last meeting calling for an early revision of the rates of railroads on live stock. At the next regular meet ing we expect to take up the question of readjusting the railroad rates on fertilizers in the State
 ''The railroads In Mississippi have wisely put their fertilizer rates down reasonably low with the expectation of increasing the tonnage. The tom mage. 1t may be readily seen, win be in- creased. The fertilizer rates in Ms sissippi are just about half those that prevail in Alabama. In Mississippi the railroads have proceeded on the basis

cent. Yet the distressing feature is that the value in proportion to fhe value of all cattle in the United States shows only 13 per cent. On account of the tick fever prevalence the loss sustained by the South is thus eduiya- lent to $95.000,000 annually.
 Immediate immunity lasts for only a year or two in cattle. Dr. Matthews recommended that a law be passed reg ulating the tick fever until general movement is put under way looking to the extermination of the tick. The law would provide for general distribution of the ticks to render calves immune.
 Dr. Matthews estimated that in and about Anniston 10 per cent of the cows die annually on account of ticks. The disease is gradually driving the indus try away from the State.
 NJ c. Scott of Montgomery. said he fights ticks successfully from his cattle with a shoo-fiy which he finds destroys them. He has no ticks now among his herds. His importations from the North died at fearful rate until the ticks were destroyed.
 MT. Wing gave some encouraging re- mazks about resisting ticks. They are successfully resisted in Texas and are destined to be finally exterminated in Alabama. The proper nursing of the cattle is a good remedy. Indian Terri tory and Texas disregard the ticks. They will not buy cattle unless they have been immunized.
 J. E.. Edmonson said that on Kings ranch in Texas, the largest in the world, he would venture to say. there are more ticks than in the whole State of Alabama. These cattle have been innoculated. -f..
 pr. Matthews said he was in favor of distributing the ticks throughout the State in order to generally immun- ize, thus saving innoculation.(
 Mr. Wing Talked of Sheep.
 Mir. Wing spoke by request on sheep. He believes that as good and as many sheep can be raised in Alabama as any where. He told his observations of sheep raising in England. There are hurdles in England which separate the ewes and lambs, the latter always go- ing ahead and eating the grass ahead of their mothers. They are thus never exposed to any parasites They are marketed when only a few months old, so fast do they grow fat.
 Nodular disease killed Mfr. Wings first sheep on his Ohio farnt. Careful management and distribution of the pastureage of the lambs was responsi- ble for later successes in sheep indus tries
 Mir. Wing uses alfalfa for grazing sheep but to avoid bloating they are fed first with some other grass.
 Alabama is the place to grow sheep intensively. Mir Wing Is of the opin- ion that the extensive sheep husband

AFTERNOON SESSION.
J. M. Jones of Montgomery Opened tn
 Final Meetimg.

J. M. Jones of Montgomery Opened the Final Meeting. Jesse M. Jones, of Montgomery, re- counted a few of bis observations on the live stock industry In Alabama in opening the afternoon session of the | Association at 1880 o'clock. He has had experience in raising beef cattle, hogs and sheep.
 The Alabama raisers he said make mistake in not putting up winter feed for cattle. Mir. Jones believes that mellelotus Is as good as alfalfa for cattle feed when 1t Is the purpose of the farmer to sell his hay. Just as firm and hard mules can be raised in Alabama as can be shipped hare. The speaker believes in turning calves into fields of mellelotus and Johnson grass as soon as they are weaned.
 The penetrating cold weather of the South makes shelters for the cattle imperative. Good strong cattle can be rendered immune to the tick fever
 As for hogs, MT. lone said the farm CTS seem in Alabama to not care for boars. They seem to concentrate on pigs and are satisfied.
 Mellelotus was prescribed as good food for hogs by MT. Jones. He condemned the method of penning up hogs in unsanitary fashion. He wondered that the hogs in some siimy pens live at
  uine. Hogs should be allowed to take exercise.
 Mir. Jones warned cattle raisers against the buzzards. reciting the in- stance of a COW dropping a calf which was chewed up by the buzards be- fore human aid could arrive. Flies are not as bad on horse and mule sas. The parasite threaten sheep, which otherwise find ideal conditions for their thrift in Alabama.
 Horses thrive on white clover sown in the pastures. No death has been known by Mir. Jones to result from eating clover The clover according to J. E. Wing, bloats sheep to humorous condition. It increases saliva In horses.
 pr. Cary, of Auburn, said parasites infect the sheep pastures but if the anil malls are not confined so closely the intestinal and stomach parasites will most likely be stamped out Often on the same farm some ticks are in fected and others are not. For this reason cattle may have ticks on their bodies for a number of years before death results. Death will not result until parasite-laden ticks attack the animal. Cmly a scientific examination can reveal whether tick Is infected or not.
 pr. Matthews on Ticks.
 Dr. F. G. Matthews, of Anniston, was next on the program on the sub ject, Ticks and Tick Fever" Too little attention Is being made in the fight against ticks, said Dr. Matthews Enormous losses annually are sustained by Alabama cattlemen.
 Cattlemen are every year giving up the animal industries because they can not buck against" the ticks, said Dr. Matthews. It behooves the thughtful men of the State to go to work at once in adopting the right methods of war fare against the fever.
 Dr. Matthews quoted some impressive statistics which showed that in the States of the South under Federal quar- antine there were recently 13.50O.0O0 cattle valued at S7,00o.000. The pro- portion of cattle in these States to the United States at large Is about 22 per

DANGER IN LITTLE SLEEP.

Work that Abridg"s the Needed
Amount of Rest Menaces Health.
Many energetic people seem to think
that they can steal from their nights
rest to accomplish their work. Some
times 1t is unavoidable, as when stu
dent has to prepare for examinations,
and occasionally it probably does no
harm, but the regular practice of sit
ting up until all hours Of the night
is one Of the silliest things a sensible
person can do. An authority says:
There is no overstepping of the limit
which is more dangerous than that Of
doing work which curtails Sleep"
1t is common thing for girls in
college and students in professional
schools to lose sleep by working until
after midnight. A certain well-known
oculist, In speaking of this practice.
said that he and his brother entered
college together. that he himself
worked like grind" and was gradu-
ated with honors, while his brother
was always at the foot Of the class.
Now" he added, my eyesight is for
ever impaired and my health is deli
cate, while my brother has made fully
as much Of a success in life as l.,
though in a different walk. and his
eyes and health are absolutely perfect,
and likely to remain so until a good
old age"
The end for which schools and COL
leges are intended-namely, a useful
career in life-is defeated when one
starts with weak eyes and tired,
overworked nervous system.
OF course, there is such thing as
too much sleep, but 1t is decided
mistake to rouse up an energetic young
person or growing school child who
has oversight. If the rest was not
thoroughly needed, he would probably
not have oversight Work while you
work and rest while you rest is a
good motto for all Industrious young
people.

In the battle Of life, which too often
takes on the guise Of battle Of death,
the laurel of the victor is intertwined
with the cypress of the vanquished.
Here is the consideration which gives
the gold coin of success its diverse,
leaden side. A preacher Of the gospel
of success ascended his pulpit the 9TH
er day and spoke as follows: There is
another fellow trying to get the prize
that you are after. Unless you knock
him down he will knock you down and
the prize will be his" The large pro-
portion Of truth in this philosophy can
not be gainsaid. The rungs of the lad
der we climb are some of them our
own achievements, but others of them
the living bodies of prostrated rivals.
Even in altruism there is competition.
The patriot who would serve his coun-
try serves 1t only in the disappointment
Of others, perhaps equally patriotic,
who competed with him for position
and power. 1t is therefore constant
temptation to look not so much toward
achievement as toward victory, not so
much toward doing a thing as toward
preventing somebody else from doing
it. Universal nature, red in tooth and
claw, shows all animals living by prey
Ing on one another and man cannot
altogether disentangle himself from
his clay. 1t is the particular glory of

but when Lincoln was urged to crush

Much has been said about the effect
Of college training on the attitude Of a
girl toward marriage. To get some
authoritative information on the sub
ject, a committee Of New York club.
composed of graduates Of a woman's
college, asked the members whether
their desire for marriage had been in
creased since leaving college, The
most interesting reply came from the
girl who said that her desire to marry
one particular man had increased very
much. One ought not to generalize
from a single instance, but one would
not go far wrong If he concluded that
this was a typical case. The only
thing that is ever lacking to make it
universal is the failure of the par
ticular man to appear at the right
time.
