With Club Over Crop
Settlement.

Dan Muldrow, an aged negro
farmer who lives northwest of
Washington, was badly beaten up

the name of Jim Stuart who had

NOTICE TO OUR
SUBSCRIBERS

During the next two or three
weeks the Telegraph will have d
representative visit every part OF
the county for the purpose of
collecting subscriptions due and
to add new subscribers to our
list. In order to save the unnec-
essary expense of a second visit
to subscribers, we will ask that
you please leave the amount due
us with members of the Pmlly
50 that it will be ready whdh our
representative calls, in the eyent
of your absence from home. Com
plying with this request will as
sist and tighten the work of our
collecting department very much
and we feel sure that our sub
scribers, without exception, will
do so.
For quite a while the Telegraph
management has realized that
the present subscription price OF
ST. 90 per year does not cover the
cost of actual production-This
is situation that many other
weekly papers have also been
facing, and numbers of them have
raised their subscription price
to S1.50 and $500 per year in or.
der to meet it. AS everything

subscribers, who are loyal peol

least pay expenses, will approve
this action and stay with us to a

We are not going to take snap
Judgment on our patrons in this
matter, however, as the raise will
not be effective until January Isl
after which time the Telegraph
subscription price will be 81 sd

After the new rate goes on and

things out of the conventional, or be-

something that the rest of US can use
we are likely to assume that he did
the useful thing because he wanted
us to reward him for it. But the facts
are probably inverted by US. We re-

Uric Acid Poisoning &?

The most eminent physicians recog-
nize that uric acid stored up in the
system is the cause of rheumatism,
that this uric acid poison is present in
the joints, muscles, or nerves. BY ex-
perimenting and analysis at the In
valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute in
Buffalo, n. Y, DR.. Pierce discovered
combination Of native remedies that he
called Anuric-which drives out the
uric acid from the system, and in this
way the pain, swelling and infamma-
ton subside. If you are sufferer from
rheumatism, backache, pains here or
there, you can obtain Anuric at any
drug store and get relief from the
pains and ills brought about by uric
acid; or send DR.. Pierce 10c for trial
pkg. Anuric which you will find many
times more potent than lithia and
eliminates uric acid as hot water melts
sugar. A short trial will convince you.

FEATS OF TURKISH PORTERS
Fierce Kurds Garry Great odds-No
Burden Too Great, and Their
Pay Is Small.

More varied, as spectacle, than the
yelled women of the Galata Bridge are
the hamals, or coolies. Most of these
carriers are Kurds, fierce people of the
eastern mountains who have fallen into
the low estate of selling their strength
to city jewellers.
I know the feats of transportation
achieved by Chinese servants, by Jap
anese go-rikkies, by hill women of the
Himalayas, by dusky coolies of India
and the Straits, but to the Kurdish ha-
NAL must be accorded the palm as bur-
den-bearer.

is another with "a square feet of plate

him one who carries a rOll-top desk,
and on top of that an office chair.
There must have been a furniture sale
somewhere, for the next fellow bears a
sofa and two parlor chairs.
Now comes a hamal grOaning under
the weight of two kegs of white lead
or paint-a heavier load than his
mates more snowy burden of 80 five
gallon oil cans. And here comes one
with 33, wooden boxes on his back.
Not all the hamals are young and
strong. Here comes an old Albanian,
whose load of figs bends him to the
ground. AS if to point the contrast,
two boys with huge hampers on their
backs come prancing and playing
pranks.
Is not this next cOolie carrying the
heaviest load Of all? On his back is a
full-sized packing case, and dashed to
it are other large wooden boxes. That
is no white mans burden. A not I'M
common load for hamals, am told, is

the world where men work so hard to

TRAINING TODAY'S

Spontaneous Desire to ''lnVent"
Is Wortii Preserving.
DO NOT LOOK FOR THE MOTIVE
Impulse to Create Something Unusual

That Are Worth While With
out Being Suppressed.
BY SIDONiE GUTENBERG.

THE first day of fathers little vaca-
! ton it rained, so they could not go
on the excursion, as planned. That
gave father a chance to catch up with
some reading, as everyone had to stay
indoors. The first interruption came
when James brought him an odd con-
trivance made up of sticks and wires
and strings. James was very enthusl-
astic, and father patiently laid his
book aside to see what was going on.
"Oh, father, see how it looks!' ex-
claimed the inventor, and as everyone
looked on he pulled one of the strings.
There was a twisting and straining
among the sticks and Wires, and one of
the sticks jerked away from it's COM
panions and stood out straight. The
younger members of the family were
enchanted, and the youngest said, DO
it asain!" But father failed to get ex-
cited.
'Well, what is it?" he asked.
ooh, IFS just machine exclaimed
James, somewhat chilled. every time
I pull the string that stick flies up,
you see.'
Yes, father saw. whats the use
of it?' he queried, perhaps as much
to make conversation and to encourage
the child as to satisfy his own curioS-
ity.
James had to admit that it was of no
use, but maintained stoutly that it
| 70
turn to his book, and the children
| went back to their play. But James
| had not been encouraged. On the con-
| trary, he had been infected with sug-
gestion that might, indeed-in the
course of time-stimulate him to fur
ther effort, but one that would almost
certainly take the edge off his spon-
| taneity.
Father, with his experience and with
his feeling of responsibility, had
reached the point of planning his time
and calculating his energy eXpen-
ditures. He knew a good reason for
everything he did outside of the Or
binary routine, like reading novel or
going to a baseball game. He also
| knew good reason why he followed
some Of his routine-like hanging up
his coat or interviewing people with
his back to the window. Everything
he did was either the result of habit
or the result of deliberate intention.
And he had forgotten that children
sometimes act without motive and
without purpose.
One of the commonest reasons for
our failure to get along with young
children, and for cur failure to get
the most out of them, is our attempt to
