How It Feels to Be a Trust. A Kansas farmer, who pursues | once Jumped to $10 a ton. Blessed the even tenor of his way” and ekes out a modest subsistence by the bard eat kind of hard work, was for years much disturbed by what he read in the papers about trusts. Political speakers came Into his neighborhood occasionally and told the, farmers that sooner or later they would be devoured by the combines. There was no getting away from these mon sters whose rapacious maws were never full and whose appetites were never satisfied. They had gobbiel up all tho large manufacturing plants, laid their unholy ha^ds on the trans portation systems, bought up the courts and legislatures and were marching on to supreme domination. The time was coming when the farm ers would be reduced to abject sub jection, converted Into mere hewers of wood and drawers of water, like the Gibeonites of old, and eventually be made to pay toll on the very air they breathed. Our Kansas farmer, os he read the paper in his lonely cabin by the light of his kerosene lamp, was kept in a state of trepida tion by visions of approaching serf dom. He dreaded the day, and the more he reflected the bitterer became his feelings toward the Incorporated devil-fish who aimed at nothing short of a complete conquest of the nation. It was in this gloomy frame of mind that our Kansas fanner one day hitched up his team to haul a load of hay to town. As ho approached Atchison, the nearest market, his Ire increased to think how completely he was at the mercy of the enemy. "These fellers, of course, have got the hay markets cornered, and I’ll have to tako whatever they offer for my feed." Upon arrival, however, a strange thing happened which worked what tho stage people call a transformation scheme. The depressed farmer found after going the rounds, that his was tho only load of hay in town that day. Tho regular price was $7.50, but as soon as our rural friend became aware of the situation the price at discovery! Unexpected culmination! Consummation most devoutly to be wished! The humble farmer, who for years had been a trust-buster in the ory and a be rater of trusts at long range, had become a trust himself! For a time, at least, be waa as big a man as old Rockefeller himself, and as well-rounded out a monoply as was ever exercised by the beef com bine. For a little bit, at least, he knew exactly how it felt to be a trust, and no confidence is betrayed In say ing that this Kansas hay-seller felt mightily satisfied with himself. An inward smile of perfect bliss took pos session of him as he reflected that anybody who wanted his hay would have to pay hi.j price. Human nature exerted itself and that load of hay resolved Itself into a monoply. For once the "down trodden’' farmer wa on top and with a thumb in either arm hole of his vest, be took on the luminosity of a grasping combination, duly incorporated under the liberal laws of New Jersey. He owned tho only load of hay on the market and any consumer who wished to buy could either pay his price or go with out hay. The moral, like all true morals, lies on the surface. Our fanner furnishes simple lesson in social economy that anybody can understand. Both the reason for trusts and the satisfac tion drived therefrom are emLodied in tho story of the Kansas farmer and his solitary load of hay. The satis faction of having a corner on things, the complete say so over one’s fel lows, is very dear to us all in the fallen condition of poor human na ture. There must be no competition, there must be a short supply accom panied by a hungry demand, and this supply must be firmly gripped by the master monopolist. In his future discussion of the trust evil our Kan sas friends will be able to illuminate by a potent object lesson and that best of all knowledge which comes from knowing how it Is himself.—Tho American Farmer.

MANY WIVES CAUSE TROUBLE. Man Was Given Full Limit on Charge of Bigamy. Savannah. Ga., March Hi—Martin Castle, a young white man, was con victed of bigamy In the superior court today and sentenced to four years in the penitentiary, the maximum pen alty. Castle married Miss Ophelia Smith, a pretty 16-yearold girl of this city, though he had a wife and child ren living In Baltimore. He subse quently deserted the young Slmth wife and went to Syracuso, N. Y., where ho was arrested two weeks ago. The priest who had officiated at Castle's Baltimore marriage, and the father of the woman ho ma-rted, ap peared against him In court. There was other unquestionable evidence, but lu the face of It all Castle assert- his Innocence and adopted a most brnsen and truculent manner. Do Not Suppress a Cough. When you have a cough, do not try to suppress It, but remove the cause. The cough Is only * symptom ot some disease, and the dtaeaae U what you ahould cure, the the cough will atop ot Itself. The moot common cause of coughing Is colds. Anodynes will promptly suppress the cough, and preparations containing chloroform, oplnm, etc, are used for that pur pose, hot they lo not cure the cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, on the other hand, does not suppress the cough. But relieves It by removing from the throat and 'unga the mucus which obstructed the breathing and allaying the Irritation and tickling In the throaL It also opens tho secre tions and effectually and permanent ly cores the cold as well as the cough.

In a recent Interview Mrs. Hall said: "Tho experience I hate been through In the last two years seems like a miracle. I was so badly off that life seemed almost unendurable, and my deafness Increased so that I could scarcely bear anything. The suBocation In my chest and the Indi gestion caused by my catarrh produced very severe suBerlng. I had live dif ferent physicians, bought everything that anybody recoibmebded to me, but finally gave up In despair. "One day bay triBUnet asked me If I had ever tried Hyomel. I began the treatment, and can truthfully testify that Hyomel does core thin torrlble disease. Since using It my hearing Is greatly Improved, and tbe only time I have any catarrhal trouble Is whon I take cold. I then use Hyomel, and always get Instant relief. My friends and acquaintances marvel at the change In my health- and hearing." Hyomel has made many cures of catarrh, and In connection with Hyo mel balm, of catarrhal deafness. In Valdosta.
