grip end Of a baseball bat. On the
clubbing end there is q round iron

These spikes have sharp points. The

story Of the rapid development q

The first cooperative factory in this

spring Of 1915 In a mountainous zee.
ton Of North Carolina. On June B q
small building only IA by 18 feet was
built and equipped at q cost Of only
$4OO and opened for business. Before

returned to it's patrons almost $780,. .

community and was conducted with
equally good results.
The first factories we're established
with difficulty because Of lack Of In.
terest among the farmers, but after
the profits began to roll In It was I'm
possible to meet the demand for as
sistance and no solicitation was need
ed to induce the people to put up new
factories. The first year the factories
were opened, about $500 worth Of
cheese was made and sold. In 1915. 20
factories were established in North
Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and West
Virginia. During last year $4,000
worth Of cheese was made in North

been nc cheese factories. would amount
to about one-fourth of the gross re.
ceipts. Therefore, t~hree-fourths Of
this amount, or q little more than $00yr

The effect Of the increased income
from the mountainous farms has
brought about a higher standard Of
living. Farm houses have been re-
modelled: roads improved: better farm
equipment introduced, and more In
terest has been taken In educational
work Of all kinds. Though some high
grade cows have been purchased and
brought into the section, the greatest
progress In dairy improvement is
shown by the better care and more
skillful feeding OF the cows already

THREE KINDS OF GENTLEMEN
Somewhat Peculiar Distinctions That
Are Made by Inhabitants of the
Emerald Island.

Ireland is the only country in which
it has ever been customary to classify
gentlemen as of three distinct kinds or
species.
Probably the distinctions are still
recognized to some extent in the EN-
erald isle, but two centuries ago, ana
even much later, they were defined
respectively as (one) the 'half-mount-
ed" (two) the gentleman every inch
of him. and (three) the gentleman to
the backbone"
The first class consisted of descend
ants of Cromwell's soldiers, who, If
they could ride well, were called
"Buckskin Breeches," or "Squireens."
The second class was composed of
descendants of old families whose es-
tates mad been forfeited to the crown
{for rebellion or other reasons), and
who had been compelled to lower them
selves by working for living, in trade
or the professions.
The third class-the gentlemen to
the backbone"-comprised the old
stock, or folks who lived on the ancient
family estates and the labor of the
peasantry pertaining to their domains.

Doctors in all parts of the country have

symptoms of grip this year are often very
distressing and leave the system in run
down condition, particularly the kidneys

ed, as these danger signals often lead to
dangerous kidney troubles. Druggists

No Pleasure in IdIeness.

Idleness is never a source of pleas
ure. The nation puts folks on en-
forced idleness as a punishment. A
well-earned rest is boon to any busy
man, but that's far from idleness. The
idler is just a spender, parasite, a
candidate for social ostracism and
the poorhouse. He soon loses the
power for real enjoyment. He's just
a burden to himself and the folks
around him. He's always hunting
happiness, but is too sluggish to use
the means that bring it. His is the
passive existence of Incidence, stag
nation and deafness. The very facul-
ties capable of giving pleasure are
obsolescent It's no use to dream
about happiness unless you are will
ing to do a little to help bring it.
Like love it wears best when used.
