DEPRESSED SPIRITS.
Every One Has Ii Within His Power
to BE Happy.

a celebrated French physician has
said that "a mans liver is the barom-
eter of his disposition"
Every man and every woman knows
that the cheerful smile is a big factor
in ones success.
Every one should know that the
disordered liver is the cause of 30 per
cent of human ills. Lazy, over-work-
ed livers are the prime causes OF
headaches, Indigestion, constipht ton
and dozens of other ills.
But the inactive liver always warns
by coated tongue, sour stomach, dull
eye and even laziness. Heed your
warning and you insure happiness to
yourself and reflect it upon your as
sociatcs. Calomel used to do. Mod
ern-day science has found a better
way in CARSWELL'S LIVER-AID,
which is a pure vegetable remedy on
sale under guarantee or money re-
funded at SOC. for large bottle. Ask

WHITE HOUSE WEDDING AGAIN ?
Rcp0rtcd Secretary NCA doc and Miss
Eleanor Wilson Marry i'm June.

Washington, March 12-Pros-
poets OF another White House we'd
ding became more definite to-day
with TIE persistent renewal of the
report that Secretary Of the Treas
ury McAdoo and Miss Eleanor Will
son, Youngest daughter OF the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Wilson, were engaged,
the marriage to take place in June.
There. was no announcement from
the White House and when the atten-
tlOn OF officials was drawn to the re-
port they refrained from making any
comment or denial
Secretary McAdOo himself said it
would be indelicate for him to COM
ment on the subject one way or the
other. Nevertheless, official Wash
ington is taking it as definite fact
that another wedding at the White
House will be solemnized in June af-
ter the adjournment of Congress.
Many persons who know Secretary
sMcAdOO were not surprised at the re-
port because he has been frequent
social visitor at the White House
during the last year.
Mr.. McAdOo is so years old while
Miss Wilson is "a. He is a widower
and has six children, one son and one
daughter being married.
Mr.. MCAdoo, who is the builder
of the Hudson tunnels, knew the Will
son family before his entry into the
Cabinet and has been an intimate
friend of the President since early
in the preconvention campaign.

As to "SOIIi'" Soils.

\ Florida reader writes as follows:
"llaNC read your article on plOwing

TO p!ow under lCgumcs for fear o.
SQuring the land and they advise me
not to do it. Will YOU discuss this
subject as applied to Central Florida.
If we are governed by special rules or
cOnditiOnS.'
Since the writer's bOyhOOd days he
has heard much Of this fanciCd or
real danger Of "souring" land by
plowing under legumes; but he has
never seen much Of it. 1t seems to
be one Of those things about which
we hear much and see little. We
sincerely wish every farmer in the
South might have to run the risk Of
'Souring' his land by plowing under
lcgumes at all seasons of the year.
We fancy there is little sour" land
in the South from this cause and very
little 'sOur" or otherwise that has
ever been injured by this sort OF
treatment.
We have sour soils in the South
but much more Of this land is Sour
because Of insufficient drainage. long,
clean cultivation and low lime con
tent than because of the plowing un-
der of legume crops. 1t is also true
that peaty soils are frequently sour"
from the decay, or partial decay, Of
an excess OF vegetable matter: but
the fear OF making our worn soils
sour by turning under legumes
should be baniShed as one of the pop
ular errors which sometimes prevent
the land receiving that which it needs
most to increase its fertility.
~ l., l..
der of,a heavy crop of legumes, when
the weather is not and moist, might
cause such rapid decay Of the vege-
table matter as to sour" the soil.
but even this is much more likely to
be heard about than actually seen.
On most OF cur depleted soils there
is only one time we would hesitate TO
plow under crop Of lcGumes, how
ever heavy the crop might be. In
dry weather, when the plOwing under
or the leGumeS is to be Immediately
Followed by seeding to another crop.
the large amount Of vegetable matter
plOWcd under may cause the soil TO
become too open and to dry out so
much that the proper supply Of mois-
ture might not remain to supply the
needs OF the growing crop.
Since most Of our soils are def
c!ent in calcium carbonate (lime), it
Is possible, If we ever plOw under
enough legumcs TO supply the needed
humuS and nitrogen, we may need to
apply lime to 'SWeeten" our soils, but
since this is needed already in order
to grow lcGumeS to the best adVant-
age, We advise our reader to DlOW
under all the legumes practicable
without fear Of "sOuring" the land.
AS 10 when this should be done, we
are OF the opinion that it makes lit
tie d'H"rcr"e, except in the case
noted above; but it is perhaps always
best to allow the legume crop to
reach maturity that more vegetable
matter may be plOwed under

now installed machinery for the

lowering the average quality Of the

ELEPHANT HUNT IN CAROLINA.
Beast Escaped from Show Near
Hartsville-Citizens Slay Runaway.

| Hartsville, March IA large ell
ephant which escaped from circus
| train, said to have been wrecked to-
day on the Seaboard, near Patrick
| was killed tonight in the Halls Mill
neighborhood, six miles out, by a
large party of men. 1t is said to have
been very large elephant by those
| present at the killing. 1t was shot
into repeatedly and chopped into with
| axes and finally weakened and killed.
1T caused quite a stir in the sparSely
settled portion Of Chesterfield and
| Darlington counties through which it
travelled.
Many wild reports were circulated
in Hartsville tonight about damage
it had done. The military company
was asked for, and while it did not
go, Of course, many men went from
here and some were at the killing.
1t is a great pity that it was not
watched and followed until keeper
could arrive on the scene, for from
all reports it does not appear to have
attempted any violence to the party
in pursuit.
Was Perfectly Harmless.
Hartsville. March 12.-It was as
certained to-day that the elephant
killed last night about six miles above
HartSvillc was the property Of a small
show owned by a man named Giles
pie, which the night previous had
given an exhibition at McBee, some
eighteen miles above here. The ele-
phant had gotten away after the per
formance. To-day his old keeper
came to Hartsville, and from him it
was learned that the elephant had
been recently sold to Gillespie by
Bringing Brothers Circus, and that
it had cost $4,000 He had Just
turned the animal over to its new
keeper and trainer and had gone
away when he heard Of its death. He
says that i, had been in his charge
for six years and was perfectly gen
tie, and that it would have followed
Il dog O. horse about and would have
harmed no one. Indeed. it only
showed fight after it had been shoe
in the eye, and after it was brought
down from exhaustion and approa ch-
ed by its purSuerS.
Gillespie has not put in an appear
ancc here, though he may have gone
out to the scene of the killing. His
only hope of recOuping for the loss Of
$4,000 is insurance, which it is pre-
Sumed he carried.
