IS THE ONE WHO IS AWAKE TO MODERN METHODS WHICH GIVE HIS LABOR A DOUBLE
 PRODUCING CAPACITY.
AN INTELLIGENT BRAIN
 AND A LCSTY BRAWN
Make a Marvellous Combination. Use the Latest Machinery, Breed the Best Animals, Adopt Scientific For muas and QuadrupIe Your Earn ings and Profits.

We live in day of discovery and progress. Old things are giving way to new and better things The world advances. He who is not awake to the trend of the times, sleeps on to his own loss. He who does not keep step with the march of progress will be left behind the procession, and part company with his more enter prising neighbor. Nowhere in the sphere of human industry is there more need of intelligent effort than among the "horny-handed sSn-burnt sons of toil' on the farm. Nowhere do greater returns for intelligent eff fort await men. Study the nature of the soil, plant life, and learn how to produce the most and best at low
 est cost in money and labor. It you can make an acre produce two bush els to where it has been yielding one, for practically the same labor, you not only reap double in quantity, but nearly or quite double in quality and price. Keep pace with the use of labor-saving machinery. It saves hu- man vitality, conserves physical com fort and prolongs your years. Get the best breeds of stock and domestic animals. It costs no more to raise that kind than inferior strains. while your profits are ten-fold It takes four years for 'razor-back" hog to be fully ready for the market, and then he will not weigh half as much as pure-bred Poland China or Berk- shire at eleven months. Last week Less Hill of Nashville, Howard coun- S1S5.00, and D. B. Sain of the same place received $15000 for COW and calf. A. l.. Skillern of the same town sold a Jersey COW for S125.00. Fine breeds of hogs for breeding purposes are selling for from S75 to $50 per head. Of course instances could be cited where much more fancy prices have been obtained by professional breeders. The Arkansas State Fair will afforl the best opportunities for learning the latest in scientific farm ing, seeing the latest in up-to-date ma chinery. observing the finest breeds of stock and poultry. It will be revelation to our farmers, an educa- tional help to them which should not be missed. Arrange to attend the fair, whether you have an exhibit or not. What you will see and learn, and the inspiration it will give you will be worth much, besides the op- portunity to invest in pure-bred stock. either direct or by placing orders.

GENIUS NEAR TO INSANITY
Many MaIadies Called Oegeneracy Just Too Much of Highly De-
 veioped Nerves.

Where my eugenic friend goes wrong is in failing to realize that a great many of the maladies which he calls degeneracy are just too much of the highly developed nervous sys- tenn which is the special endowment of the gifted families.
 Overcharge the battery ever 80 little and genius becomes insanity give one member of the family a volt too much and the delicate bal- ance of phyiscal and mental quail ities on which sanity depends IS broken down. Extinguish the fam ily and you will rid the world of some degenerate, but you will also and at the same time rob 1t of its most gifted men.
 My eugenist would never have let Cowper, Lamb, Coleridge, Steven son, Keats, Ruskin, Henley or De Quincey see the light.

ROOM CAREFULLY SEALED.

An eerie tradition is recalled by the death few days ago of Squire" Thomas Green of the Old Hall, Poul- ton-Lancelyn, Cheshire, England whose family have been in possession of the estate since period prior to the Norman conquest. There is in Poulton Old Hall mysterious locked room which has never been opened except by representative of the Green family. The hall and its lands have sometimes been let, but the Green family have always re- tained possession of this mysterious room, which is supposed to contain several relics and other family treas ures. The last tenant would have given an increased rent for 1t if he could have had access to this room or could have cleared away the mys- terious contents, but the owners re- fused to give up possession, and so the tenant left.

They Are Called "Panio Birds" and Appear Only When a Tempest
 Is Impending.

There Is an interesting class of men who are never seen on "the street" when everything Is bright and buoyant, but who flock there in droves when tempest breeds, and stocks fall way down to almost nothing. They descend upon ''the street" to take advantage of such conditions, and buy up stocks when at their lowest, holding them until all is peace again, and then selling at a handsome profit. They are usually veterans of the market who ''know the ropes," and buy when everyone else Is selling. and sell when prices are high and everyone is buying. These "wise men" of Wall street are called "panic-birds," and they al- ways soar high above "the street. in troublous times. One "panic-bird' has flown into the whirlpool of some twenty panics and has scared with . fortune of half a million. On the other hand, one young man, with few thousands and some ordinary horse-sense, took "flier" in Wall street for the first time at the height -or depth-of the 1907 panic, and came out practically millionaire Strand.

him only twice in the last six

chase had been a long and hard
one, with partial failure written at

busy to think of anything save my

enough to evade arrest, and with. at
least a part of their iN-gotten gains

tion laws were a dead letter.
So my heart thrilled anew now
with a terrible fear Could he be

had spoken, and the uncertainty of
whose fate was-had been-a mat

the moment the other mysteries of

membered suddenly that Darby had
