Is The Good Advice Given The Farmers
By A Calamiue Correspondent.

Mr.. Farmer, it will soon be
time for fixing land and planting
cotton again. Now is the time
to begin to think who will receive
the profits Of our years labor,
Is this profit going to our fathers
and mothers, little brothers and
sisters, our blessed loved ones
who will pull the hoe and guide
the plow through the long and hot
summer days and months and
who will drag the pick sack
through the cold of autumn? My
friends have you ever thought OF
it? It not, [ ask you to think
about it now. Is the profit going
to our families who earned it,
or are they going to the rich
gambling speculator, who never
worked a day in his life, but who .
grasps the earnings Of the farmer
to spend and lay out on Iuxurles
and frivolous things?-the spec
uIator who would not let the
laborer a block from him have a
dollar with which he might buy
bread for his hungry children,
What do you think of the
farmer who is not a member Of
the Union who says, "Well, if it
does good for the Union men it
will do good for me?" What do
you actually think of farmer of
this kind? I think he has about
as much manhood as the rich
mans thomas cat and about as
much brains as poodle dog.
We have few such men around
old Calamine. They can go to
some little two by four merchant
and get a few dollars worth of
goods on credit and they think
they have a stand-in, and sure
enough they have--but it is in
the dark. Poor boysl Working
like the dickens for the specula-
tors.
So, Mr., Farmer, when you 90 |
to plant your cotton next spring
think this all over and plant
corn, hay and potatoes and SOW
wheat, and then il you have any
land left plant few acres in
cotton, but be careful and don't
plant too much. Reduce your
crop one-third from the year be-
fore. Let Sharp county, Arkan-
sas and the whole South do this
and cooperation will win the
fight, but without this action we
will fail. Cooperation among the
farmers will stop some Of the
corruption.

A disappointment.

The old truth that things are not
always what they seem was estab-
lished anew the other day In this
case the discrepancy between fiction
and fact was SO great as to be most
amusing. Says writer in the Phil
adelphia Ledger:
1t was noon when he entered the
crowded restaurant. He stood fully
six feet three inches in height, was
built in proportion, and must have
weighed at least $50 pounds. AS he
strobe down between the rows of ia
bles he looked as if he could eat up
the house.
He took seat beside diminutive.
fussy little man with bald head and
chop whiskers, who was successfully
polishing off a sirloin steak with on
ions. The little fellow, with his nap
kin tightly wedged under his chin
and his mouth full of dinner, looked
up in wonder at the gigantic side
partner and then down at the frail
cane-bottomed chair, which creaked
and groaned piteously under its i'm
mense weight But the big fellow
took no notice of the little one. When
the waitress approached him he gave
his order.
Bring me-" he said, in falsetto
voice, "a cup of weak tea and a

vogue just now, but almost any con-
trasting material can be used for coll

make a feature and are exceedingly
handsome.
The coat is made with fronts, back,
side-backs and under-arm cores. The
under-arm cores are extended to
form the under portions of the
sleeves, so allowing graceful lines
and doing away with fulness at that
point. Follower cuffs finish the
sleeve edges and Follower collar

COLD AIR DOES NOT
CURE TUBERCULOSIS.
Germantown Physician Ccrrects
Some Popular Faiiacies Regards
ing Consumption.

ALTITUDE has nothing to do with
either the growth or the cure of tu-
berculosis, said Dr. Joseph Walsh.
of the Phipps Institute, in an adj
dress before the Plastic Club.
Many persons go to White Ha-
ven with the idea that it is the eli
mate that is curing them" he said,
and, failing to enter the sanitarium.
live in the farmhouses near it, be-
lieving that they are doing the next
best thing 1t is not the air of White
Haven which cures 1t is the discip-
line. Those who go to the farm
houses might as well stay in their
homes. At the sanitarium the diet
consists of one solid meal each day,
six raw eggs and as much milk as
can be consumed. The patient is
forced to absorb an unusual guam
tity of food The part the air plays
in this is to furnish the oxygen for
the combustion of this food and the
consequent building up of the body
through it's assimilation of that food.
Many persons have an idea that
so, but it must be air from which
the oxygen has not been taken. I
do not know that there would be any
reason why the consumptive should
not breathe heated air if it were pure.
No one should ever sleep in the same
bed or in the same room with an
other where it is possible to do
otherwise.
No one should breathe the air of
a room which has been heated by a
gas stove or by coal oil heater, for
the reason that both of these throw
upon the atmosphere the products of
combustion to be taken into the
lungs.
No house should ever be swept
without a previous moistening of the
floor, because this dry sweeping may
throw the germs of tuberculosis into
the air. A cold has no closer rela-
ton to consumption than has any
other disease which may lessen the
body's power of resistance"
DR.. Walsh gave some interesting
figures showing that the death rate
from tuberculosis was one-fourth less
in 1892 than it was in 1861. He
said that the autopsy table showed
that fifty per cent. of the adults. of
this country suffered from tubercu-
losis at some time in their lives, and
that of these seventy-five per cent.

The Holy Grail, according to the
legend, was the vessel which held the
paschal lamb at the Last Supper.
Joseph of Arimathea, it is said, had
gone into the house when the supper
had been eaten, had taken away the
vessel, and in it, at the time of the
crucifixion, had received the blood
that flowed from the spear wound Of
the Saviour The dish. and part of
the blood, he had brought to England

CHEESE AND TOMATO SALAD.

A delicious cheese and tomato
salad is easily prepared. Peel and
slice in rounds large, firm red to-
matoes. Take fresh American cheese
and cut this in round slices as large
as the tomatoes; place slice of the
cheese between each two slices of the
tomato, spreading on each slice of
cheese a bit of mayonnaise dressing.
When large enough set the tomato
on a lettuce leaf. In making this
salad the largest slices should be at
the bottom and the smallest at the
top. The mounds should then each
be placed on crisp. fresh lettuce
leaves and small spoonful of stiff
mayonnaise dropped on the top of
each.--New York Times.
