BLACK, ITCHING SPOTS ON FACE.
Physician Called 1t Eczema in Worst Form-Patient Despaired of Cure
 Cuticura Remedies Cured Her.

About four years ago was afflicted with black splotches all over my face and a few covering my body, which produced severe itching irritation, and which caused me great deal of suffering, to such an extent that was forced to call in two of the leading physicians of -. After a thorough examination of the dreaded complaint they announced it to be skin eczema in the worst form. Their treatment did me no good. Finally I became de- spondent and decided to discontinue their services. My husband purchased a single set of the Cuticura Remedies, which entirely stopped the breaking out. I continued the use of the Cuti- cura Remedies for six months, and after that ever splotch was entirely gone. I have not felt symptom of the eczema since, which was three years ago. Mrs. Lizzie B. Sledge, $40 Jones Ave-, Selma, Ala, Oct 2S, 1905."

HORSES THAT WOULDN'T DROWN
Remarkable Deeds Recorded by Two
 Veracious Chroniclers.

An Albanian who has just returned from the east, where freshets have been the rule, tells the following about horse which had been attached to a foot bridge crossing a brook, to keep the structure from going adrift. The flood finally swept horse and bridge down stream. Later, the bridge was discovered lodged against the bank, with the horse sitting quiet ly on the former.
 A bystander who had listened in- tently to this tale, remarked quietly:
 'I see suthin', similyar oncet."
 Indeed? What was it?" asked the story teller.
 'Ye see," was the reply, "arter the hoss see was took down stream, no- buddy ever 'spected to see him alive agin. But he was pow'ful sort O. brute, an bout hour arterward we see him comin' up stream a-pulin' the blame ole bridge arter him!"-Al- bany Evening Journal.

Making money under the mortgage system is like taking candy from a shild," said an old-time merchant the other day. He meant that he tied his mortgages up hand and foot and con- pelled them to pay him any price he had mind to charge for credit of some one to seven months "accommo- dation." We have seen flour sold to mortgages at $3.50 hundred, when the man who had an open thirty &C., count was charged s2.50 for identical ly the same flour. In the case of the mortgagee the merchant had to wait an average of ninety days for his mon- ey and then had it almost absolutely secured, while in the other case he had to wait thirty days, and some times he was "stood off" for thirty days more, and never had any security except the other mans promise to pay. Fools are not born "one every second" as the old saying goes, but are born all the time, and in great big punches.

ACCOMPLISHING.

It is the desire of every farmer to have his cotton compressed at the gin. It is one of the purposes and aims Of the Farmers Union to secure advance ment and economy in the handling of the cotton crop each year. The ques- tion arises, Which is the most feasi- ble, the cheapest, the readiest and the best method of the square bale and round bale systems of gin compress es?" And another question, too, real ly the first for consideration, arises Which is the better method, the round bale or square bale compress sion?" Let us consider the. round bale proposition
 By using the round-lap bale a light cotton cloth covering is wrapped about it, and sewed with a cotton threac This character of wrapping 1urnIshe, the market for our low grades of cot ton, that of imperfect staple, or that is weather-stained The use of this bale does away with jute bagging and iron or steel ties, thus killing effectual- ly two of the foulest trusts that exist in America to-day, saving not less. also, than GO cents per bale In wrap ping. So much for the character Of bale.
 The substitution of the round for the square bale would necessitate the substitution of the round gin compress for the square ones. What will be the gain by this substitution? There are several patterns of round-bale gin compresse made that are for sale in the open market, so that there can be no monopoly on that character of gin compress. The best quality of round-bale compress costs $1475, while the square-bale compress costs $35O0, saving in cost of s2O25, by no means a small item.
 Another thing, by gin compression the railroads allow the ten cents per hundred pounds of the freight tha. they have to pay to the public com presses along their lines, or twenty five cents on each round bale weighing 250 pounds, and this is worth to the cotton producers on a 12,000,000 bale crop, $3,000,000. and just think what $3,00O,000 per annum in your pockets would be to you, brother farmers.
 It is not the purpose of Co-Opera- tor to enter into an elaborate discus sion of this question of gin compress ing and the better methods thereof in this article. We only desire to present a few salient points, that the locals may begin to think about and discuss this question among themselves, as questions of individpal economics as well as those for the general good are appropriate and meet for the consid eration of the locals. The locals must decide and dictate all the policies of the State Unions and the National, so get on your thinking caps.-Co-Opera. tor and Farm Journal

Clergyman Knew the Best Place to
 Put the Whisky.

There was no fire in the smoking car and everybody was blue and trem- ulous with cold
 My feet fairly ache," said a clergy man.
 Then drummer, winking at his neighbors, pulled out a flask of whis- ky.
 Here's the best thing going for cold feet, friend" he said.
 And the clergyman extended his hand for the bottle eagerly.
 You bet it is,' said he.
 He poured a huge drink into the glass, lifted it toward the drummer with Here's looking at you, sir," and then, slipping off his boots, emptied the whisky into them.
 "In two minutes my ice-cold feet" he said, twill be in warm glow. Whisky poured into the boots warns the feet like hot stove"

Every time you go to the house and leave blow sticking in the ground. you are playing into the hands of the implement trust; every time you need lessly let your wagon get wet or leave it out in the hot sun, you are doing favor to the gang of fellows who want to "skin" you on another wagon. Generally the men who build the wag- ons are honest, and you have no trou- ble in getting wagon that is built for service, but they can't build 'em against abuse, neither can they make 'em fool proof

The two great political parties have named the date for holding their con- ventions, when the fight for the presj- dency of the United States will be narrowed down to two men, named by a frenzied mob of scramblers for prom

 move the fact that the farmer who in plenty of time sees to it that he has the best seed he can get for his com ing crop has the man who neglects to do this handicapped at the very start.
