and came to Virginia after the war.
Isaac had probably made and sold
more maskets than any other man
in Tazewell county.
There are a number of sick people
in this community, but none are very
serious.
Several ladies and gentlemen arc
asking contributions for the Belgians.
Quite snug sum has been received.

MEAT AND WAR.

department Agriculture, Richmond
In the most exclusive restaurant in
Paris you can buy neither butter,
cream nor milk. Every cow in the
country has been Communicated for
the army.
What does this mean to us?
1t means that in France, at least,
the farm herds are swept out of ex-
istence. 1t means that the same thing
exists in all probability in each of the
warning nations. 1t means that the
GARY products will be scarce in Eu-
rope for years after the war is over;
that the local supply of beef will be
obliged to await the building up of
the herds; that the breeding animals
will be imported from other countries.
All this ruin to the farmers of Eu-
rope must be remedied by the efforts
Ct years. In the meantime we must
40 our part in the matter of supply
ing the breeding animals and the
meats.
The farmers who have taken our
ADVICE during past years by raising
more live stock will now have the op-
portunity of reaping a rich reward.

Suffered Fl Years

Having suffered for twenty-one
years with u pain in my side, finally
have found relief in DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root. Injections of morphine
were my only relief for short periods
OF time. l became so sick that l had
to undergo a surgical operation in
New Orleans, which benefited me for
two years. When the same pain came
back one day l was SO sick that l
gave up hopes Of living. A friend adj
vised me to try your Swamp-Root
and l at once commenced using it.
The first bottle did me so much good
that / purchased two more bottles. l
am now on my second bottle and am
feeling like new woman. l passed
n gravel stone as large as a big red
bean and several small ones. I have
not had the least feeling of pain since
taking your Swamp Root and l feel
it my duty to recommend this great
medicine to all suffering humanity.
Gratefully yours.

A SONG OF OLD DREAMS.

Sometimes, amid the tumult and the
throng,
We hear an old, sweet song;
A brokers' train from one we used to
hear.
Back IN some yesterycar;
A melody, borne through the drifting
haze
Of life's forgotten days:
The tumult dies around us, strangely
thrilled,
With roar of traffic stilled;
Our eyes are dimmed-our hearts turn
back-and then
We dream old dreams again.
Sometimes, beneath loves new found
smiling skies
Remembered perfumes rise;
An incense from the violet or rose,
Where summers south wind blows;
Lost fragrance from old lanes or mig
nonette,
That love cannot forget;
And In the twilight or the dawn we
turn
TIC where old affairs burn;
And new found love must bide its
moment then
We dream old dreams again.
And then, like silent ghosts from
memory's tomb.
They come in nights deep gloom;
Gray ghosts uprisen from the dream
less dead,
They come with phantom tread,
Without excuse, as restless winds of
spring,

Legend of Christmas Wreaths.

In sword and sash and scarlet coat
Upon Christmas day,
Through frosty woods and hoary fields
A soldier rode away.
She watched him through the falling
snow.
A young and lovely maid,
In milky pearls and flowing robes
OF velvet green arrayed.
With rumors of the distant wars
The months went slowly by
Till once again the Christmas bells
We're pealing to the sky,
Ard, walking in the lonely wood,
A bush the maiden found
With thorns as sharp as little swords
And scarlet berries crowned.
She leaned against an ancient oak
And wove wreath to wear
or scarlet berries, bright and gay,
And set it on her hair.
And, 10, the pearls upon her breast
Were changed to berries, too,
And, rooted to the oak, branch
OF mistletoe she grew
When sweet and clear the Christmas
bells
Ring out DER vale and hill
The maiden mistletoe is seen
In pearls and velvet still.
And with her in the revels ruled
By music, mirth and folly,
In sword and scarlet still arrayed,
Behold the soldier holly!
-Minna Irving in Leslic's.

OUR LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES

department Agriculture, Richmond
The able editor of the Manufacture
ers' Record gives the following en-
couraging and stimulating business
forecast for our Southland, which in
cludes our good State of Virginia, as
much as any other State, in the great
material developments that are soon
to come. He says:
"In this country 100,000,000 people
are living in a land whose natural re-
sources beggar all description, where
coal and iron and oil and gas and
GRANTEES and marbles and phosphate
rock, sulphur and many other min
erals are found in quantity such as no.
where else is known to man. Here, too,
ere cotton and wheat and corn and
barley and oats and rye; here are
millions of live stock-not to serve
mighty armies in their death grapple,
but to minister unto the work and the
sustenance OF hundred million peo-
pie living in peace.
Here is the strategic geographical
location of all the world giving us as
to no other nation advantages and ia
cilities for world trade. Even though
We would not selfishly seek our own
advancement at the expense of war
ring nations, they are driving US out
into world trade to care for world
needs. We are forced to step out in
to world affairs to maintain the trade
and commerce upon which civilization
depends.

equipped for business, in all the
word, MOI at war. 1t is an amazing
situation. 1t. means that in the, not

XMAS.

The Xmas season draws near-the
time when we are to commemorate
the birth of Him who gave His life to
men. But we as older people some
times wonder what Xmas means to
us. We sometimes lose the spirit of
the time and feel that it means for us
TN empty pocket book, an exchange of
useless presents, needless expendi-
tCre of time and money. The 10th of
December finds us tired, worn out and
ready to fail down and rest.
1t is but fitting that we should give
to our friends at Xmas time but NAV
we not profit by the example of Him
whose birth we celebrate. His life
was gift to men-but he did not
give as many of US give. He gave
love; He gave self; He gave service.
There was no commercial; there was
10 mercenary spirit then and there
should be none now.
We say that it is the season of rec
objection and only those who have no
sad memories should celebrate it. But
after all the poignant memories that
the season brings, 1T is best that there
should come one day in the wear when
we watch the children in their glee
and then we most needs recall those
who watched us in our joyous child
tood and we see on back through the
ages, the generations before us, until
at last we behold the star light on
the Judean hills and then we NAV cali
IT the day that links us, through our
old loves and iongings, through our
present warmth and kindness. with
all the world around US.

Musical Thimble Hunt.

Even the very small children find
hunt the thimble delightful game
The home folks may play it with the
youngsters or they may play it when
other Christmas fun runs low.
One of the company hides the thin
BILE, while the one who is to hunt for
it leaves the room. When it is prop
erly hidden some one sits at the piano
and plays, and the one who is to hunt
for it comes in. Not word is to be
spoken, but when the hunter is near
the hidden thimble the piano music
must be loud, and when he goes away
then the music must be low. 1t is
much more fun than the old way of
callingg shot" and "cold."

King and Queen.


A jolly Christmas diversion is the
game called king and queen. Thi,
game requires an equal number of
girls and boys. One boy is chosen
king and girl queen.
The king and queen choose their re-
spective followers, and each one is
given a number.
Then they all form circle. At the
same moment the king and queen call
number, and the two players bear
ing the numbers run around outside
the circle, the queens after the kings
follower.
If she catches him before he COM
pletes the circle heb as to go over to
her side, and if she does not she be-
comes kings follower. The side
that has the most followers wins.
