ventures of Capt Toms of Hende--
sonyille, who is said to have made
S1100 in one year growing ginseng

read and discussed the adventures Of
Capt Toms as set forth in the arti-
Gle in the Sunday News around the

the Metropolis has already secured
his land, and in the very near future
expects to be reaping handsome prof
its from the herb which is the balm
for all human ills.
