BE A FARMER OR QUIT.
Dear Advocate:

Dear Advocate:
Feeling my incompetancy Of con-
tributing to your valuable paper,
am almost ashamed to write, but be-
ing impressed very much with the fact
that farmers must be farmers, in or
der to succeed in their line Of busi-
ness, if they actually till the soil they
must, in order to succeed, lay such
plans as they think possible for a.
thrifty ambitious man to reach, by
putting forth every effort to that end
and then do their best to reach that
object.
I think an ideal object for farmer
is to make good comfortable liv-
ing for himself and family. Educate
his children, both spiritually and
temporarily Teaching them the
principals of true manhood and wo-
manhood. Teach them to form in
early life some definite aim in life,
and never fail to set their mind on
some good noble end in the pursuit
of which the accomplishing of such
ends that would make life a pleasure
to himself and an aid to those by
whom he is surrounded. Let us 20
back to the farmer who does not till
the soil and see if we have such a
class of farmers who tills the soil and
produces the agricultural wealth
of which our nation stands very much
in need. We need farmers who are
farmers in deed, who do not till the
soil Perhaps you all have noticed
most lecturers, public speakers Of all
kinds in addressing an assembly oi

A Remedy for Neuralgia or Pain in
 the Nerves.

For neuralgia and sciatica Sloan's Liniment has no equal. It has pow. erfully sedative effect on the nerves -penetrates without rubbing and gives immediate relief from pain ouickens the circulation of the blood and gives a pleasant sensation of com.N fort and warmth.
 For three years I suffered with neuralgia in the head and jaws" writes J. P. Hubbard, of Marietta, s. C., and had almost decided to have three of my teeth pulled, when a friend recommended me to buy 25 cent bottle of Sloans Eminent. I did so and experienced immediate relief, and I kept on using it until the neu- ralgia was entirely cured. I will never be without a bottle of Sloan's Lini- ment in my house again. l use 1t also for insect bites and sore throat, and l can cheerfully recommend it to any one who suffers from any of the i!l7 have mentioned"

A doctor said:-
 Before marriage my wife observed in summer and country homes, coming in touch with families of varied means, culture, tastes and discriminating ten dencies, that the families using Pos tum seemed to average better than those using coffee.
 When we were married two years ago, Postum was among our first order of groceries. We also put in some cofx fee and tea for guests, but after both had stood around the pantry about year untouched, they were t;lrown away, and Postum used only.
 Up to the age of 2S I had been ac- customed to drink coffee as a routine habit and suffered constantly from in- digestion and all It's relative disorders. Since using Postum all the old com plaints have completely left me and sometimes wonder If ever had them"

Too Interestinq to Bury.

There Is a certain little southern girl who is very fond of her negro nanny. The nurses name Is Sally, and she is large woman, so she is known as Big Sally Ethel, however, calls her "Biggie" for short. One day her mother took her to museum, where among other things, there were some stuffed animals. Ethel was greatly interested, and for many days she did not tire of talking about them. Perhaps a week later, at the supper table, after preoccupied silence, she said
 Mamma, when Biggie dies I'm not going to have her buried; I'm going to have her stuffed!"

We hear" began the reporter, "that you are to marry Blobb, the billionaire Won't you give us the de- tails?"
 Sure" replied the obliging actress, q like these things to be exact. Get out your notebook. I do not know Blobb, but l have heard of him, and understand he has wife. I am my self happily married. I do not be- lieve in divorce or bigamy. l would not, if free, marry divorced man. I would not marry Blobb if we were both free and he was the last man on earth"

Lauoh and Grow Fat; No.

There is nothing in the maxim "augh and grow fat" or else the joke smiths fail to grow mirthful over their own merrymaking.
 Great humorists seldom are fat. F. Dunne is the heaviest, weighing about 16O pounds. The weight of others living is: Mark Twain, 15O hounds; George Ade, 147; Jerome K. Jerome. 143, and w. W. Jacobs, 132. O. Henry is really great humorist, hut he is in the 1S0-pound class Home Magazine.
