WHEN THE TIRED
MOTHER GIVES OUT
What Then?--The Family Suf-
fers, the Poor Mothers Suf-
fer-Mrs. Becker Meets
This Distressing Situation.

Collinsville, III. -"I suffered from q
nervous break down and terrible head
aches, and was tired all over, totally
worn out and too discouraged to enjoy
life, but as | had four in family and
sometimes eight or nine boarders, kept
on working despite my suffering.
II saw Vinol advertised and decided
to try it, and within two weeks /
noticed decided improvement in my
condition and now | am well woman"
Mrs. ANA BECKER, Collinsville, Ill.
There are hundreds of nervous, rum
down, overworke ed women in this vicinity
who are hardly able to drag around and
who we are sure would be wonderfully
benefited by Vinol as Mrs. Becker was.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
building up health and strength in such
cases is because it combines the medici-
nal tissue building and curative elements
of Gods livers together with the blood
making, strengthening properties of
tonic iron. We ask every weak, ner-
vous, rundown man or woman in this
vicinity to try bottle of Vinol on our
guarantee to return their money if it
fails to benefit.

The following morning thirty

John ]. Cherry.

The Partisan gives to the ap-
pointment of John J. Cherry as
chief clerk at the main prison,
its unqualified endorsement.
The prison system of Tennes-
see is supposed to be operated on
business principles so as to add
to the revenues of the state and
it should be the aim and object
of the powers that be" to see
that no man is appointed to any
office connected with the prison,
unless he has demonstrated that
he is thoroughly capable bust
ness man who has achieved sue
cess in the management of his
own affairs.
There are enough failures
among the unfortunates behind
the bars without filling up the
Office chairs with incompetents.
We do not believe there is a
man in the state who is better
fitted to head the clerical force
at the main prison and his supe-
rior ability coupled with his hon
esty and integrity, make John

The Arsenic in the Pill.

The fight against the issuance
of free passes by the railroads is
fathered by one Luke Lea whose
aim in life seems to be centered
on revenge upon something or
somebody.
The Partisan has seen fit to re-
mark before, that lit believes
strongly in railroads as the sus-
tanning element to the commerce
of the world and it has an utter
contempt for the peanut politics
which prompt an office holder or
seeker to make war upon these
great and useful institutions.
Just what this country and her
people would do without rail
roads is hard to tell and just who
among our readers would be will
ing to do away with them, we
cannot imagine.
What harm do they do or have
they done to anyone?
Why should they be singled out
as the goat" by such cheap and
unscrupulous political bosses as
Lea?
Why should the representa-
tives in the legislature and sen,
ate come to heel at the bidding
of this man and why should they
aid him in his efforts to hobble,
muzzle, strangle and otherwise
harass this source of prosperity
If the railroads wish to hand
out free transportation to every
Tom, Dick and Harry in the
country, what business is it of
LEAFS?
If the railroads refuse to issue
a pass to any living human be-
ing, what has Lea to do with it
| Which or who has stirred ur
the most dissension in this state,
the railroads or Lea?
Which or who has paid the
most taxes into the Golfers OF
the state, the railroads or Lea!
Which or who has contributed
most to the upbuilding of the
state, to the development of hel
farm lands, to bringing her in
touch with the great outside
world, the railroads or Lea?
Which or who could the state
part with and miss least, the
railroads or Lea?
What is this wonderful legis.
lation that the railroads want tt
buy with their free passes? Any
body ever seen or heard of it ex,
cept from Lea and others of his
lilk?
Why was this fool plank stuck
in the platform and by whom,
think you Sirs?
The people and the railroads
would get along beautifully il
the dog in the manger" tactics
of such muzzle leaders as Lea
were abolished.
Any attempt to curtail the
present privileges of the rail
roads is not only a direct blow al
every man who gets his living
from them but it is a step to-
ward the stifiling of progress ant
prosperity, all to satiate the hun
ger and satisfy the ravenous
nav of designing politicians.

CITY HELPED BY NEWSPAPER
Prominent Man of Mobile, Ala, Gives
Testimony to Good Work
by Press.

! saThe Mobile chamber Of commerce
for the last couple Of years has not
taken any page space in newspapers;
jbut we have had occasion recently to
have great deal of newspaper pub
iJicity on several matters and the re-
suits from it have been far beyond
our expectations.
s'Within the last two weeks we had
a campaign for the raising OF oetter
live stock, which was commented on
by the newspapers throughout the
country, and brought up scores of In
ouiries from all parts Of the United
States. Without this newspaper pup
licity our campaign would have been
for naught, as it was through the
newspapers that the interest was
aroused, and today everyone in thls
section is talking cattle raising.
Another instance:
Some weeks ago we inaugurated q
movement to celebrate day in honor
OF the Satsuma orange, grown in this
section, which is recent industry.
Our purpose was to advertise IT
through the stores. hotels, etc. We
did not think our first attempt would
be a big success, but the newspapers
took up the matter with a vim, and
the attendance from surrounding Sec
tions was far In excess of what we
anticipated.
"This was all accomplished entirely
by the newspapers, and without their
cooperation we do not believe we
could have had such success. -

more men buy a bull together, they
may be able to get better bull than
either would own individually and
still have money to buy females.
There are other advantages, one OF
which lis that the more daughters q
bull may have the better he may be
judged as sire. In the case OF men
who are doing official test work this
has considerable advertising value.
Another advantage is that when diff
ferent neighbors watch the growth OF
their neighbors' calves and young
stock they will try not to let the other
fellows stock get the start of theirs.
This will result in better growth ana
better developed cattle.

In my herd that was sired by bull
owned exclusively by myself. At
present 1 have a breeding interest in
three different bulls that / have used
in the last year. This would seem
to indicate that I intend to cooperate
with my neighbors.
I believe that the greatest advan.
tage of community breeding will re-
suit from friendly rivalry in the grow
ing and development of the stock, and
then from good team work in the sell
ing of the same.

IMPROVING THE BACK YARD

USE FOR A HAND SEPARATOR
Less Work Necessary In Handling
Milk With Device Than Without
7>----EM actIIne Saves ag aste.

A hand separator saves all waste of
butterfat. What is the use of feeding
cows good corn, hay and other stuff
that costs money and then allowing
the product to go. to waste?
Less work is necessary to handle
milk with the separator than without,
because there are fewer utensils to be
used and the skim milk may be fed to
the pigs and calves and chickens at
once, and does not haye to be handled
again.
Forty or fifty dollars will buy good
separator, big enough for a herd OF
four or five COWS, and it will save Its
cost the first year If properly cared
for, separator is good for ten years.
The cream from a separator will
bring more money because it is uni
form in richness, and is sweeter be-
cause, as it is separated while the milk
is warm and fresh, it does not absorb
odors as it would If left standing
around.
The separator saves hauling milk to
the creamery and then hauling the
skim milk back to the farm. Then
skim milk hauled any considerable dis
tance becomes cold and sometimes
dirty and tainted and not fit to feed.
If farmer has ten or more COWS he
will require a larger separator-one
that will handle say $50 pounds of milk
in about fifteen minutes, and he then
should have small gasoline engine to
do the work. 1t is quicker and cheaper
than hand nower
