When June comes around with it's
roses there will be another wedding in
the family of the great commoner, and
lincoln. Neb., is delighted. since it
means the keeping Of the younger of
the popular Bryan girls with them.
Perhaps the Bryans are delighted. too,
for Miss Grace, the youngest child, is
10 marry no stranger, but a young man
who has always been known to them
and whose parents have long been
their friends. Richard Lewis Har-
greaves is the prospective bridegroom
The young man is only a few years
elder than the bride to be. who is
about nineteen.
Presumably the wedding will take
place at Fairview, the family home on
the outskirts of Lincoln. or else in one
Of the local churches. Miss Grace Bry-
Rn resembles her mother in appearance
and has the same charm of face and
manner. That she is clever goes with
parents could be nothing else. Her
special talent is music, as that or her
elder sister is literature.
The Bryan girls have always been
great favorites with the American peo-
pie. Like their mother, they are sim.
pie and democratic and put on no un.
due airs, although their fathers great
position in the world would excuse
them for so doing. When Miss Ruth
Bryan was married to W. 81. Leavitt in
1908 the marriage could scarcely have

1t has been computed that if the
leaves of an elm tree sixty feet high
We're spread out on the ground edge
to edge they would cover five acres of
land. These leaves, averaging 1.000.-
600 to full grown tree, will absorb
water to the amount of seven tons
during the normal summer day. Were
it not for the ingathering by the sto-
mata during the night few elms

HEREDITY
Can Be Overcome In Cases.

|, The influence of heredity cannot, of
course, be successfully disputed, but
it can be minimized or entirely over
come in some cases by correct food
and drink. A Conn. lady says:
For years while was coffee
drinker suffered from bilious at
tacks of great severity, from which !
used to emerge as white as ghost
md very weak. Our family physi-
~lan gave me various prescriptions for
improving the digestion and stimulat-
ing the liver, which 1 tried faithfully
but without perceptible result.
"He was acquainted with my fam
lily history for several generations
back, and once when visited him he
said: If you have inherited one Of
those torpid livers you may always
suffer more or less from its inaction.
We can't dodge our inheritance, you
know
"I was not so strong believer in
heredity as he was, however, and, be-
ginning to think for myself, conclud-
ed to stop drinking coffee, and see
what effect that would have. l feared
it would be a severe trial to give it
UP, but when I took Postum and had
it we'll made, it completely filled my
need for hot beverage and l grew
very fond Of it.
81 have used Postum for three years,
using no medicine. During all that
time 1 have had absolutely none Of
the bilious attacks that used to suf-
fer from, and 1 have been entirely
free from the pain and debilitating ef-
fects that used to result from them.
"The change is surely very great,
and 1 am compelled to give Postum
the exclusive credit for it." Name

Mich.

Granite of the South.

When one speaks of granite the
mind naturally reverts to Vermont. 1t
is difficult to associate granite with
any section of North America outside
New England, yet it must now be ac-
knowledged to the credit of the south
that Georgia, North Carolina, Mary
land and Virginia are producing large
quantities of stone of good quality
which insures the south place in
the market at any rate.
The annual output is now worth
about S3,5OO,OoO and the industry is
growing. 1t may be of comparative
interest to know that New England's
output is about s9.OO0,OOO worth Of
stone annually.

CURED HER BABY OF ECZEMA

Il can't tell in words how happy the
word 'Cuticura' sounds to me, for it.
cured my baby of itching, torturing
eczema. 1t first came when she was
between three and four weeks old,
appearing on her head. I used every
thing imaginable and had one doc
tors bill after another, but nothing
cured it. Then the eczema broke out
so badly behind her ear that I.really
thought her ear would come off. For
months I doctored 1t but to no avail.
Then 1t began at her nose and her
eyes were nothing but sores. had to
keep her in a dark room for two
weeks. The doctor did no good, so I
stopped him coming.
For about two weeks had used
Cuticura Soap for her every day,
then got box of Cuticura Ointment
and began to use that. In week
there was marked improvement. In
all I used two cakes of Cuticura Soap
and one box of Cuticura Ointment and
my baby was cured Of the sores. This
was last November; now her hair is
growing out nicely and she has not
scar on her.. I can not praise Cuti-
cura enough, I can take my child any
where and people are amazed to see
her without a sore. From the time
she was four weeks old until she was
three years she was never without the
terrible eruption, but now, thanks to
Cuticura, have well child" (Sign-

COTTON EXPOSITION.
VIII be Held in Columbia This Fall
Good Results Expected.


An exposition to encourage the
farmers of South Carolina to grow a
better staple of cotton will be held in
Columbia during the fall under the
direction of Ira W. Williams, the
State agent CT the United States farm
demonstration work.
For the past year Mr.. Williams has
conducted q campaign in the State.
with most effective results, to inter.
est the farmers in the growth OF q
longer staple cotton. This campaign
has been conducted in conjunction
with the South Carolina Manufactu.
rers' Association. The association
and Lewis w. Parker, Of GreenYille
gave the sum of $4,000 to prosecute
the work.
The cotton manufacturing plants OF
South Carolina are gradually chang.
ing from the manufacture Of coarse
to finer grade of goods and better
staple of cotton is needed. The long
staple cotton required brings much
higher price. A farmer in Anderson
county sold seven bales of the long
staple cotton for 1S cents pound.
There will be a number Of prizes,
aggregating several hundred dollars
in, value, to be given at the cotton
exposition for the best results OBJ
tanned by South Carolina farmers
during the year. The date of the eX
position has not been decided upon.
All farmers desiring to enter the
contest should apply to Ira W. Will
liams for information as to the kind
of seed to be used for the best re
suits.
