kA ished us by saying that nine
4 "a tenths Of the happiness OF
misery Of home life depends
On temper.
Good temper Is sweet. kindly and
benevolent disposition of mind and
heart. It tncltnes US to be satisfied
and pleased with the treatment we
receive in the relative duties OF life
It Is an eminent and a comprehensive
Christian grace.
BE ye kind one to another, tender
hearted. forgiving one another, even
IS God for Chr1st's sake hath forgiven
you"
What are we to think Of those who
lways live in the worst place in the
worldT We can find friends any
where If we show ourselves friendly
bee sucks honey where spiders suck
poison. Do not be irritable and do
not irritate others. Avoid the weak
and soro spot in your neighbors and
initiate the rignonette rather than
The nettle.
Seek Only the Truth.
Open your eyes to the truth, the
beautiful and the good around you,
and see Il you cannot be sweet II
you carry shoulder-bag with the
faults Of others in front and your
own behind. just turn 1t around. For

you get good prices.
This seems to be the time
of all times to side dress with
an open hand and make every
pound of Drop possible, when
all products will be needed at
prices that will mean money to
the producers.
Think this over. If you
don't think heavy side-dress-
ing pays, why of course we
wouldn't use any. In fact, ifI
did't think fertilizer paid, l
wouldn't use any at all. But
if you decide it will not only
pay for itself and make you
several times it's cost in clear
profit, then you will need no
argument as to what to do
about making this application.
Our advice is to apply some
good fertilizer literally and
just as early as possible. Don't
wait too long to apply it if YOU
expect the best results, espec-
ially on cotton,
Now remember, our 4-lo-2
and Our 4-7-2 are in a class to,
themselves when it comes to
side dressing.
We recommend them to
you with our old reliable 8-4-4|
goods and know if you will
use them literally they will
pay you a profit of several
times their cost, to say nothing
of making a crop you will be
proud OF and build up, iusiead
of exhaust your land, an item
in itself worth more to you
nh7n the cost of the goods.
From every stondpoint it will
pay you to side-dress hberally|
and if you do you can't hnd|
to use in the class
with our goods.

RESULT IN TAFT'S OWN STATE STILL IN DOUBT
ROOSEVELT IS LEADING IN THE SCANTY RETURNS
Rough Rider on the
First Ballot, Says
Dixon.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 22.--with
only the third district total vote 70
hand the result Of yesterdays presiden-
tial preference primaries held through
out the State is still In doubt, although
Colonel Roosevelt was leading in the
scanty returns. The third district, com
prising the counties of Butler, Mont
gomery and Preble, gives Roosevelt &c.
O54 votes TO President Taft's 41.431,
and the indications are that the same
ratio will be followed throughout the
State.
The indications at midnight here are
that Roosevelt may carry twenty of the
forty-two districts in the State. The
majority of the delegates will have the
election of the six delegates at large
in their control, under the election laws
of Ohio. This would give Taft twenty
two elected delegates and the control
of the delegates-atlarge, or total of
twenty-eight to Roosevelt's twenty.
One of the most remarkable features
of the fight here has been the vote Civ
en- La Toilette, which has surprised the
State people and politicians alike.
Harmon, the States favorite son,
will probably go to the Baltimore con-
vention with twenty four out of the
States forty-eight votes. Speaker
Clark so far has not shown at all on
the ballots, and but few scattering re-
turns have mentioned him. Wilson is
running well The complete returns in
the Democratic fight may change the
entire aspect of the struggle.
Washington dispatches report SEN
ator Dixon, campaign manager for Col
onel Roosevelt, as saying, "Mr. Roose-
velt will get forty-four of the forty.
eight delegates from the Presidents g
own State, and will undoubtedly be
nominated on the first ballot at Chi.
cago. The voting in Ohio today has
been lighter than we expected, consid-
ering the interest that is being taken
in the race, but this was largely due to
the fact that the farmers, where by the
way not little of the Roosevelt
strength lies, were unable to leave their
work in the fields to go to the polls.'

MANCHURIl MATE
FINED BY COURT
FOUND GUILTY or SMUGGLING
GUNS INTO CHINA MORE
TROUBLE COMING.

Second Officer W. W. Richl Of ihe
racidc Mail liner Manchuna was found
with seventeen automatic revolvers in
his room AT Hongkong and was fined in
the British court Of the colony the
small sum Of 25O Mexican dollars. lt
is understood that Riohl will feel the
axe Of official displeasure when the
steamer reaches San Francisco.
From the reports Of the affair it
appears that Riehl had landed large
number Of guns and the number found
in his quarters represented but a small
portion Of those he had succeeded in
dsposing of at Hongkong, in spite Of
law to the contrary. When be was
brought up in court after the search
made by officers Of the Crown, several
Of his shipmates went before the court
and asked for leniency in his case, the
small fine being the rsult Of the repre-
sentations of other officers on the yes-
sell
Rieh has been with the Manchuria
since chief officer, now captain, Emery
Rice left the steamer to take n berth
in the local run between Manila and
Hongkong more than two years ago.
This is the first time he has been caught
dealing in cOntraband.
Officers on the Manchuria were reluc-
tant TO discuss the matter freely but
all admitted the search for the guns
and the fine of Riehl by the court. 1t
occurred several days before the sail
ing of the steamer and several of. the
passengers were aware Of it.
