How to ReIieve Spawn.

SPAWN is very difficult to cure, and
about all you can do is to blister the
joint and remove the lameness for
awhile. The simplest and best blister
is made as follows: One ounce Span
ish flies. one-balf ounce liquid tar, two
ounces lard. Mix and rub on the joint
from five to ten minutes, putting on a
pretty thick application. and leave it
on for twenty-four to thirty-six hours.
Then wash off with warm water aud
soap. When dry rub on some grease
or lard and let the ANNA, rest for
three weeks.-Southern Cultivator.

When a Hero Faltered
By ESTHER MILDRED GRAVES

George. for heavens sake, goe The
child will be lost
George turned toward her Il face
white with fear.
'Oh, George
This was all. She saw that he was
terror stricken. \ veteran at standing
up against shot and shell, he was n
raw recruit at meeting fire. She gave
spring and dashed up the staircase.
The act of his brave littie-wife was
needed to enable George Converse to
master a constitutional weakness. Ida
had not reached the top step before
her husband darted past her with the
cry Go back,n How he got through
the fire and smoke that interviewed be-
tween him and his boy, why lie was
not burned mortally by the one or
suffocated by the other. he nor any one
else ever knew. Reaching the room he
sought. knowing that he could not
bring the child out by the way he had
come, he cried to his wife:
go below the window.
Ida ran down and out, scizing n
found several neighbors who had been
attracted by the fire. At the same mo-
ment George threw up a sash above.
Without word those present seized
the blanket, and the boy was dropped
safely into it.
AS soon as George Converse saw that
his son was safe he began to remem-
Der the fear of fire that had paralyzed
him. 1t was all gone. the shame be
| felt only remaining. But one idea fill
ed his mind-to wipe out the stain.
Jump cried those below, holding
| the blanket under the window.
George sat down on the window SILL
| took a pipe and tobacco pouch from
his pocket, filed the. pipe. lighted it
and began to puff as coolly as if there
We're no fire.
Jump" repeated the crowd. ''The
roof may fall at any moment
I'm going back the way 1 came,'
| he said doggedly.
| IF you do you are dead man."
Then I'll be a dead man.
| He turned from the window, but,
| hearing the agonized call of his wife,
| bent over the sill The look she gave
! him told him that he had no need TO
| vindicate himself in her eyes, and he
| remembered that if he We're lost she
| would be left to continue to support
herself and their children He jumped
into the blanket.
From that moment George Converse
became an industrious worker and

fire he was in constant dread OF its Wis

cucumber pickles are generally slow
selling up to Sept. l and brisk after
that. There are many reasons for this.
The people have a mistaken idea that
canning in hot weather is risky; they
hate to work in hot weather: they do
not think of canning until cold weather
reminds them of coming winter. Thus
cooler weather sets in, the demand
jumps up like mushroom, and, on the
other hand, the supply shortens, as the
cooler nights are unfayorable to Gu
cumberS- Thus to make the money
the grower must be real grower and
take advantage of every circumstances
and bring in a late crop. This means
young plants, careful picking, rich and
well drained soil and ample water. A
mistaken method is to produce slic;ng
cucumbers and then expect pickles aft
erward. The proper way is to plant
purposely for pickles and to remove
every fruit as fast as of proper size.
We have many Il time picked every
day, and we have also picked in the
sweat of our brow and dumped the
crop, owing to depressed market. sim
ply to hold the vines in thrift for the
later trade.
We cut with sharp knives, allowing
small stem to each pickle. We use
strong pals. for carriers and handle
carefully, shade the baskets i'll the field

and then plunge isto cold water, count
them by fives While fishing out of wa
ter. mark the baskets carefully. protect
again and send to market. They are
sold by the hundred, and, there being
little difference in price between the
smallest and the largest one can see
the smallest pay best in demand.
OF late years we have had serious
trouble with the wilt disease. We used
to call it Il disease, but now we know
better There is tiny worm at the
ground line which punctures the stem
to such an extent that the upward flow
of sap is retarded. thus killing the
plant. Whenever Il field wits when
moisture is ample look for the borers.
We find we can kill them with the
standard tobacco extracts, pouring Il

bacco dust. as the bugs will not pene-

WITH AID OF SPIDER MARK
TWAIN TAUGHT A LESSON.
Told. Curious Subscriber Why Live
Insect Appeared In Folds of
His Newspaper.

Marx Twain was an inyeterate joker,
as most people soon discovered, but
very often there was n distinct moral
quire to be labeled; it could he seen
with the naked eye.
Many years ago the famous humor-
list was editor OF the Enterprise. 4
newspaper published at Virginia City,
New. One day he received n letter
from a subscriber who appeared to be
q bit superstitious.
The subscriber explained that he had
found in his copy of the Enterprise
that week live spider and he want
ed to know whether that meant good
luck or bad luck. Editor Mark, who
was plain Sam Clemens at that period.
sat himself down and wrote a brief
reply in his Answers to Correspond
ents'' column. THAT SPIDER he said,
was merely looking over the columns
OF the Enterprise to find out what
merchant doesn't advertise in his home
paper. The spider wants to go and
spin it's web across the door of that
mans place of business, SO that it
may have Il long life of undisturbed
serenity"
This is the age of advertising. If
you doubt it just take note of the fact
that the circulation of the leading
mail order monthlies of the United
States aggregates millions of copies.
Why? The "literature'' contained in
most of such publications is not of
high class, and there is no such enor-
NOUS demand for that class of jour
nails merely for reading purposes
Their circulation had been pushed by
various methods, in many cases the
papers being practically given away to
carry the advertising of big city estab-
lishments and smaller catchpenny
schemes to the town and country dis
tricts. These papers with their enor-
nous circulation were supported by
advertising. The advertising even
paid for the white paper and the ex-
pense of mailing.

81 is bound to show itself sooner
or later. Such was the case
with George Converse, who at twenty
eight had served two enlistments in
the United States army with credit.
He had entered as private and come
out as first sergeant of his company,
besides having been mentioned sew
eral times for gallantry in action. The
reason why he did not enlist for an
other term was because he had fallen
in love with a pretty seamstress, who

The ex-sergeant found Job as por

to shirk his duties. This in time cost
him his position. He was not sorry,
because he thought he would find some
thing better suited to his taste. His
little wife encoura ged him TO think
thus, though in her heart she worried
that their income should be cut off,
George tried several other occupa
tions. but did not show any more ap-
titude for work in them than in the
first. From some of them he retired
voluntarily: from others he was dis

CUCUMBERS. VALUABLE CROP
IF HANDLED WITH CARE.
In Order to Make Money the Grower
Must Take Advantage of Every
Circumstance.

Cucumbers for pickles are quite an
important crop and in many localities
could be made i profitable crop if
properly handled. We refer to pickles
sold direct to customers and not to the
canning factory. The difference be-
tween the two is great. as the canning
establishment will take the crop any
time, while the market will not. Thus
