the lint cotton had to be carried
from the lint room up ladder to
the bale box. When this box
was full the screw was run down
by a yoke of oxen hitched 10 a
long lever. Then the bale was
tied with jute or toe rope, an
inch or inch and a half in size,
instead of iron ties.
This gin house had but one
large room in which to store seed
cotton, and all seed cotton, of all
grades and conditions, that was
brought to the gin was stored to-
gether in one pile, and the gin
owner would give the farmer a
receipt for the SAME, agreeing to
give him twenty-four pounds of
lint cotton for each one hundred
pounds of seed cotton delivered
at the gin. Tho farmer did not
carry any Of his cotton seed
home, except just enough to
plant his next crop, and the seed
was thrown out of the gin to the
ground in piles nearly as large ds
a house. People in the early
days did not know that the seeds
could be used for anything but
to plant.

blacksmith shop at this place, and
at once built small log house to
be used for such a purpose. This
shop stood in the yard where
Milton Stokes residence now
stands, and the Messrs, Gist
worked there quite a number Of
years, the younger man doing
the work and his father furnish
ing the material. In those days
about all Of our farming tools and
implements, wagon irons, horse
shoes and nails were made by
the blacksmiths. The next year
after the Gists came here a small
oak twig came out OF the ground
at the back Of the shop where
the smith threw the cinders from
his furnace. Mr.. Gist took care
of and protected this little twig,
and today it is a large towering

THE PRIMARY ELECTION
A Few Items Not Included in
the Tabulated Report.

Well, how do you like it? The old
alleged wicked aud fraudulent system
of "packed" primaries and conventions
has been relegated to the political gar
bage dump and the dear people have
had their initial inning. "The people"
have chosen their candidates for the
various state and county offices, and
the somewhat mythical bosses have
retired to the rear and assumed a
meek and iowly attitude.
Isn't that nice?
The defeated candidate is now con-
vinced that he is not the choice of 1.-THE
people," and has no kick coming.
Harmony is here. and here to stay.
Isn't that nice?

THINKING 1oo MUCH.
Danger of Overexertion of Brain Point.
 ed Out by Specialist.

From the Washington Star.
 "The brain is mans most faithful friend and would be mans best companion if he understood it better" said a prominent specialist.
 "I use the word brain to comprehend what we term the mind and the process of thinking and not asa physical object or a medium which directs our actions or through which we or the animate spirit directs us, just as theorists please to take tive will look upon it as a thing with which we may hold communion and pro- ceed upon that hypothesis.
 "On the stage the prize idiot in the cast usually young nobleman or dude, always raises q laugh when with vacant stare and set features he speaks his lines about the effort of thinking and the wearying effect such mental process pro- duces upon his physical being. He really speaks a 'greateer truth than either he or the audience takes in, for thinking is an effort be the thought in itself ever so frothy and ephemeral and could we lessen the process of thought at will, as an en- gineer applies the air brakes to his train, much of the trouble and disease in life would vanish like the meadow yapor be- fore the rays of the rising sun.
 Tt is this impossible process entirely to still what is called the thinking process which is one of the most interesting stud ies of the specialist, for it is, plainly speaking, the inability of the individual to eliminate certain thoughts. or a certain thought, from the brain cells, or to still 1t into inactivity, which fills the insane asylums produces nervous wrecks in other individuals and causes trouble, confusion and chaos all around in everyday life

 "A little practice will make this pos sible to the student though his progress will be by degree and not in one jump. He should first understand that thinking is largely a matter of habit; that the brain is one of the most willing organs

in his body at his command, and, honest and faithful as it is to him, will respond to his calls upon it. He should therefore give 1t as much needed rest as possible by the process of sleep, and during walk ing hours by not calling upon 1t for thought except when necessary. The average person will put in tremendous amount of unnecessary thought effort upon the simplest everyday matter of life.
 Again, he will allow his objective mind to cling to one or several thoughts with persistent tenacity. In this event he wears out particular cells of his best friend, and where this habie is maintained he often becomes a nuisance to his friends and family by developing into what Is termed crank and at times he ex- hausts these same cells in this manner and lands in the asylum.
 Most people use their brains too much either in utter idle waste or in oVercon- centrated work, and when their best friend begins to show mild resentment by showing signs of fatigue they ply 1t with stimulants which science or the distilery have placed at their disposal Even under these mean circumstances the brain disgusted though 1t is with such shabby treatment, gou' on doing the best it can for it's owner until temporary insenslbilty insanity or death ensues..

Knew How to Manage Horse

From the Newburyport News.
 A friend writes to the News of an auto mobile incident which came under obser. vation, which shows how easily the horse with any sense can be made acquainted with the machine gentleman owned 6 fine horse which was terribly afraid oi the bouncing vehicles. The owner hao not used the horse for some time because of this fear, but finally ventured out witt him. He had not gone far before an auto containing man and woman appeared in sight The horse soon became unman- ageable.
 The auto stopped and the woman alight- ed. approached the horse and seized his bride After talking in quiet way tc the frightened animal. she took from her pocket some candy and gave it to him.
 In a few moments she told the man to start on. This was done, and the horse let the auto pass him without showing any sign of fear. Since then he has had no fear of these vehicles, but instead of this he wants to go up to the side of one he chances to meet. doubtless hoping to get some more candy.

 Whether the chautauqua business will i dwindle in time is uncertain but the de- mand for lecturers and entertainers seems to be increasing every year, judging from the invitations that come to public men.
 In the winter the little cities and towns have their lyceum lecture courses, which call for one lecture a month Every coun- ty seat town in the country now aspres to have lyceum lecture course In the summer the chautauquas take the talent. Then lodges, societies and churches ar range for entertainments and many pub lie libraries have special courses. It looks now as if the field might be widened rather than diminished and if it widens it may not be necessary to increase the salaries of senators and congressman.
