Cost of Cotton Pickinu.

1t requires something like 1900. 900
cotton pickers, each picking 100
pounds of seed cotton an average for
each picker and working 100 DAYS
to pick a 10000. OOO-bale crop. OF
course some pick more than 100
pounds of seed cotton and some less.
There are days when, on account of
rain, no cotton a be picked. The
average of 100 pounds a day for 100
days is not far wrong as an estimate
of the picker's work.
At 60 cents a hundredweight the
cost of picking a bale of cotton is 50.
AT rs cents a hundredweight the cost
is s11.25 a bale. Therefore the cost
of picking the entire crop will range
somewhere between $780, 0O, 900 and
$4,000, 00o.

He ought on a margin and gladly went

This man who could figure the distance

EFFECT OF THE FOOD LAW.
Driving Many Worthless catarrh Medi
cines Out Of Existence,

The pure food and drug law, which
went into effect the first Of January,
has already shown the good that will
follow its enforcement.
Many worthless remedies, that have
been advertised for the cure of ca
tarrh, a disease that is universally
prevalent, have been driven out of ex-
istence by the pure food law.
The effect of this is to increase the
sale OF remedies that are valuable and
that fulfill the provisions of the law.
Hyomei, for example, is meeting with
a larger sale than ever before, and the
Eggleston Drug Company is still sell
ing it under a guarantee that 1t will
cure catarrh Or the money will be re-
funded. Hyomei is a scientific treat
ment that is recommended by the best
physicians. 1t cures catarrh without
stomach dosing, through inhaling medi-
cations that go right to the affected
spots.
By breathing Hyomei three or four
times daily through the neat pocket
inhaler that comes with every outfit,
its medicated, healing air penetrates
to the most remote parts Of the nose,
throat and lungs, searches out and
kills all catarrhal germs, and soothes
and heals any irritation in the c
membrane
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81, extra bottles If needed, &c.,. and
is sold by the Eggleston Drug com
pany under the guarantee that It will
cure or cost nothing.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Clean paint smoked by kerosene
lamps with kerosene and rub it of

Lime-water will sweeten jars and
jugs which soap and water fail to
cleanse. 1t is admirable for cleansing
milk vessels and nursing bottles.
Half a lemon dipped in salt and
rubbed on discolored ivory knife
handles will restore them to their or.
iginal whiteness. After doing this
wash the knives once in hot water.
The fshy taste in wild game, il

HOW TO POLISH A TABLE.
Work Can Be Done Easily and Sat.
isfactoriiy at Home.

Get a pint Of linseed oil, pint oil
parraffin oil, half a pound of finely
powdered rotten stone and a pint of
turpentine. These. materials will last
you year or more for your table or
other furniture which requires special
polishing.
Have a couple of pieces of an old
felt hat, some pieces of cheesecloth
and large piece of wen worn soft
linen; or. instead of the linen, a piece
Of chamois.
Pour linseed oil on the marreu
places, then sprinkle with the pow-
dered rotten stone; rub with the piece
of felt. 20
Let the movement be light, quick
and circular; be careful not to use
pressure enough to cut the varnish;
rub until the surface of the wood be-
comes hot.
Be careful not to let the rotten,
stone become dry, as it then would
scratch the finish; add oil from time to
time, and if needs be rotten stone.
When the table is sufficiently pol
iss2d wipe ciean with an equal mix
ture of turpentine and parrafin oil;
rub the table well with this, and let it
stand for several hours; then polish
with chamois or old linen.
In polishing furniture you can use
a great deal of pressure. .'

An Ills. mother writes about feeding
children:
'If mothers would use Grape Nuts

"If those suffering from indigestion

Grape-Nuts, toast and good milk for a
short period they would experience
more than they otherwise would be-
lieve.
Our children have all learned to
know the benefit of Grape-Nuts as an
appetizing, strengthening food. 1t is
every evening, with few variations,
like this: Mamma, let's have toast and
Grape-Nuts for breakfast; or. let's have
eggs and Grape-Nuts forget
ting the latter.
