THE XIIiXiING- ABOUT HOGS.
I have just laid down my newspaper
after reading: of the awful tragedy that
occurred near Cordele last Monday,
where three men (neighbors) are al
ready dead and the fourth mortality
wounded, and all this horror grew out
of a silly difficulty over some miserable
hogs that had strayed from home.
My! My!;
Has the world gone mad? When men,
grown men, with wives und children de
pendent on them, can get so enraged
over a triflig matter of this sort, it
would seem that Christianity has failed
in this country of ours.
Of course the hogs were not worth
it! And the hogs were only the nec
essary spark to kindle rage in the
might have caused. There are courts
of all sizes to adjudicate such differ
ences; but the trouble was not begun
with the miserable hogs.
It was that hatred, that had been
nursed diligently until it burst out in
gun play and there are weeping widows
and orphaned children, enough to make
angels weep, over man’s inhumanity to
man. Angry passions are the besetment
of human kind. How we should pray
to be delivered from angry tempers!
And how bystanders should flee from
two angry men. when firearms are in
evidence!
“Soon borne on Time’s eternal wing,
Shall Death command you to the grave,
Before His bar, your spirits bring,
And none be found to hear or save.
hearts of these men who were neighbors
and should have been>friends.
The ill-will had been brewing, grow
ing bigger all the time, and the cri
sis eventuated when the hogs strayed
from the pasture and gave the other
man a chance to put them up and “get
even” with his neighbor for one time at
least. *
I need to say nothing more of this
particular catastrophe, but I am sorry
that the story of the killing has gone
all over the United States and comment
is freely made on the blood-thirstyness
of the transaction, and the good name;
of the state has suffered, as well as
those widows and orphans who are the
innocent victims. “How great a fire a lit
tle matter kindleth.”
And it is a dreadful thing to go out
of life, with red hot rage, surging in
side immortal things! Death is sad
when disease or accident removes a
person from life, but how inexpressibly
terrible when men get so angry and
so violent that the rage makes them
maniacs and keen for murder. Old Sa
tan rubs his hands in glee, when grown
men, husbands and fathers, begin to
quarrel. All the hogs in Crisp county
were not worth one of these lives, that
were sniffed out in a few minutes in
. a street broil; and for such a pitiful
cause, insignificant as well as unworthy.
This “getting, even” is such a terrible
thing. There was a legal remedy for
any destruction that straying hogs
In that lone land of deep despair
No Sabbath’s heavenly light shall rise,
No good regard your bitter prayer.
No Savior call you to the skies!”

CARE OF THE FEET AND THEIR
TROUBLES.
How many people do you know who
are troubled with their feet—with hard
corns and soft corns—with bunions and
ingrowing nails, etc., etc.?
Don’t everybody answer at once, but
wait and tell how many people do you
know, who have no trouble whatever
with their feet, or have natural, painless
and well-preserved feet? The sort that
never hurt.
I am not able to tell the number of
troublesome feet or well preserved feet
either, but I can safely say there are
more people complaining than there are
those whose feet give no trouble.
I am afraid these extraordinary hign-
heeled shoes will make the matter worse.
The weight of the body is thrown on tne
ball of the foot and when the fashionable
lady walks a good deal on hard pave
ments, she is reasonably sure to get
corns on the bottom of her feet, and
then she has trouble.
Also, when such persons are compelled
to stand on their feet during most of
the day, the veins get enlarged ana
swell, and those ugly things called vari
cose or blood-shotten veins will appear.
One can be as miserable as their worst
enemies could wish, with painful corns,
and yet feel obliged to walk and wear
close-fitting shoes. Some people make a
business of trimming their corns, and I
have heard of folks who barely escaped
blood poisoning by such trimming and
paring. I have had an aggravating lit-
the corn on one of my own little toes for
forty-odd years. I have been made al
most sick with the pain after much walk
ing on hard pavements. I generally pro
cured some nitrate of silver in solution
and painted the aggravating spot, it
will turn the skin black and look ugly,
but it has taken away the sickening pain,
more than a score of times for me. But
some more hard walking would start an
other corn and then I had to doctor
again.
But the bunion proposition is the worst
of all. When the bunion gets a firm hold
the poor sufferer need not expect ever
to wear shapely shoes. He or she may
be glad to wear any sort of shoes that
can protect the sufferer from aggravat
ing pain. I have known bunions to be
come a chronic sore with continual pus.
I had once a good friend who died from
blood poison, growing out of a bunion.
An ingrowing nail is one of the vexatious
problems of human kind. They generally
demand the surgeon’s care, before the
suffering ceases. Troublesome feet are
as common as toothache and that is say
ing a good deal.
Compound and Blood Purifier have
helped me wonderfully. 1 don’t have
those pains any more and I am all right
now. There are a great many women
here who take your remedies and I have
told others what they have done for
me.”—Mrs. Chas. McKinnon, 1013 N.
5th St. W., Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Women who are suffering from those
distressing ills peculiar to their sex
should not lose sight of these facts or
doubt the ability of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound to restore their
health.
There -are probably hundreds of thou
sands, perhaps millions of women in the
United States who have beep benefited
by this famous old remedy, which was
produced from roots and herbs over 30
years ago by a woman to relieve wo
man’s suffering. If you are sick andneed
such a medicine, why don’t you try it ?

YOUR FALL SUIT
THE WHITE HOUSE WEDDING.
The wedding of Miss Wilson will
rival the wedding of Miss Alice Roose
velt, and it is likely the ceremony will
be performed in the same room, perhaps
at the same hour in the day. The dis
play will he tremendous and there will
he a great many people who will attend,
and doubtless a considerable number
who will feel slighted because of the
lack of an invitation; and President
Wilson will be lucay if he does not
find some of his admirers quite huffy
because of non-attention, etc.
Miss Nellie Grant had a brilliant
wedding in the White House, but I did
not see her until she made her first
visit after she had lived a number of
months in England.
She appeared at one of her mother’s
receptions, dressed in what she called,
shrimp pink silk. She looked very girl
ish and happy, and her mother was
quite delighted to see the gla’d greet
ings showered on the daughter by peo
ple well known in Washington society.
But Nellie’s match was not a happy
one, according to reports. It is under
stood that British husbands are gener
ally neglectful husbands to American
wives.
Mrs. Fred Grant was an exceedingly
handsome woman, and, although she
was married in Chicago, she lived in
the White House a considerable time,
during the Grant administration.
Mrs. Hayes’ daughter was a school
girl only, a modest little lady, whose
good mother’s fine example was of last
ing benefit to her during her stay in
the White House.
Mrs. Garfield had also a young daugh
ter that I saw very frequently while
her father was in congress. She was
also a very quiet and unobtrusive young
girl.
Mrs. McKinley lost her two children
when they were small. Their early go
ing away had much to do with the
mother’s depresses state of health.
I saw President Cleveland’s very
handsome wife when she had been a
bride of some months. I somehow
wish she had never relinquished the
name of Cleveland, for her children’s
sake.
It was Alice Roosevelt who had the
time of her life in the White House.
She was universally popular, and might
have had choice of some titled fiances,
hut she preferred her own countryman
for a husband. I certainly wish for
Miss Wilson all the satisfaction that
the eclat of a White House wedding
will give one.

HOW TO RAISE GOURDS.
Dear Mrs. Felton: Since the gourd
question comes up I’ve received so many
letters I’ll have to call on you for
help. Now if they will give me tim«
l will send each some seed, but here’s
the trouble: If they who wish had a
peck of seed each and did not know the
peculiarities of this species of gourds
they would never raise one. So I wish
to give my experience with them for
twenty-five years for the benefit of all
who wish to try. Now what I have to
say—put it away for your guidance. In
the first place it takes them longer to
germinate than any seed I know of,
consequently they have to be planted
early. In January or February it takes
from fifty to sixty days to come up. If
they come up too late they will not ma
ture in time to be sound.
Next, never more than half the seed
germinate, and often never come true
to the original. Why? I am unable to
explain, unless they originally came
“It'll never do to let Sam know that I
am rich,” soliloquized Captain Job Trav
ers, as he neared Biddeford on a visit to
his old shipmate, Sam Stubbs. “Sam
would either envy me or hate me for my
luck, and I want to enjoy Sam nat’ral.” I
Captain Sam Stubbs had retired from
the sea at the pressing invitation of va
rious ship owners, who dreaded the con
tinued bad luck that followed the unfor
tunate mariner, and, a soured, disap- t
pointed man, Captain Stubbs had retired
to a small home near Biddeford, where
he lived with his daughter and a very
meager income.
“I’m glad I thought about keeping mum
about iyiy luck,” muttered Captain Trav
ers, as the one-hinged gate groaned a
protest to being opened, and the rotten
porch step tried to trip him. “He*s poor
as a rat, is Sam, and he’d hate me on
account of my luck.”
Captain Travers, after years of voyag
ing along the Atlantic coast, on a small
salary, had fallen in with a derelict, and
the salvage had amounted to $5,000.
The weather beaten face of Sam St,ubDs
just lightened a trifle as he shook thf;
hand of his old shipmate, and he asked,
gloomily:
“Schooner at Biddefodd?”
“No, Sam, I’ve no schooner right now
“Lose her?” asked Stubbs, with a glint
of joy in his eyes.
“No; just quit the sea for awhile.’*
“Ain’t made your fortune, have you?”
and the corners of Sam’s mouth drew
down as he asked the question.
“Lord, no; poor as ever, Sam,” lied
Captain Travers.
Captain Travers was much taken with
Meely Stubbs, his friend’s daughter, ana
his heart ached as he noted her shabby
dress.
“I wish Sam wasn’t such a crooked old
stick,” he mutered to himself. “I’d like to
give that girl a present.”
During the talk after supper the bright
face of the girl and her cheery laugh
contrasted so strongly with the croaking
pessimism of her father tha't Captain
Travers determined at all hazards to
make her a substantial present during his
stay as soon as the means of doing so,
without it being atributed to him, was
discovered.
Captain Stubbs showed his guest to
the best room, and remarked that the
room adjoining was occupied by his
daughter. When Captain Stubbs had
retired, and as Miss Meely had not
come upstairs, Captain Travers ven
tured to take a peep into Meely’s
room. A few cheap pictures hung on
the wall and a tawdry vase stoon on the
mantel piece.
“Poor girl!” sighed the captain, but
just then his eyes fell on the bureau,
and an inspiration swept over him.
He stepped quickly to the bureau,
picked up a Bible that lay thereon,
and slipped a $100 note within its
pages. Then in a glow of blushes at
having been within the sacred pre
cincts of a young lady’s bedroom, the
captain hurried back to his apartment
and went to bed.
“She’ll open the good book,” he
from the handle kind and run back to
the same.
Never plant near growing trees as
they sap the soil of all moisture and
email vegetation perishes. In rich
creek or branch bottom land they do
best and then liberal fertilization helps
wonderfully. Any kind of lot or stable
compost is good and so is commercial
fertilizers that are rich with potash.
The largest one I ever saw was raised
in a creek swamp, where a log heap had
been burned. If you have to plant in
upland have the ground rich and dug
up deep. Drouth effects them sooner
than anything else, so if it turns off
dry they should be watered late in the
evening. Never pull them until the
vine dies. Then put some on some
boards or benches in the sun until dry,
which will be in December. When dry
scrape off the old skin gently. When
ready to cut take a pair of compasses
and stretch the points three inches. Put
one point in center of the old steam
and scribe a circle, which gives you a
six-inch hole, you can have it larger if
you wish by opening the points. Then
take a brace and bit and bore as many
holes as you wish above the scribed
circle and saw out or cut out the piece
with a sharp knife. Then trim the edges
smoothly. Take out the pith and seed.
I varnish or paint them any color desir
able, generally mahogany, and they
make a nice receptacle for many things.
Very respectfully, T. J. H.

FREE FROM DANDRUFF
Girls! Try it! Your hair gets
soft, fluffy and luxuriant
at once.
If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beauty and Is radiaht
with life; has'an incomparable softness
and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
Just one application doubles the beau
ty of your hair, besides it immediately
dissolves every particle of dandruff; you
cannot have nice, heavy, healthy hair
if you have dandruff This destructive
scurf robs the hair of its lustre, its
strength and its very life, and if not
overcome It produces a feverishness
and itching of the scalp; the hair roots
famish, loosen and die; then the hair
falls out fast.
If your hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too
oily, get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton’s
Danderine at any drug store or toilet
counter; apply a little as directed and
ten minutes after you will say this was
the best investment you ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair and
lots of it—no dandruff—no itching
scalp and no more falling hair—you
must use Knowlton’s Danderine. If
eventually why not now?—(Advt.)
murmured, “and find the money, and
soothed by Hie consciousness of a good
deed he fell asleep.
Evidently Miss Meely did not consult
the scriptures that night, for she gave
no indications of a fortunate find the
next morning, but Captain Travers bided
his time, and after a rather doleful
day, owing to the lamentations of Cap
tain Stubbs, Miss Meely put on her
shawl at nightfall, preparatory to go
ing out.
“Too dark for you to go,” proclaimed
her father. “An’ my rheumatiz is too
bad for me to go with you.”
“I must go,” said the girl. “I must
see Miss Miffin tonight.”
“I’ll go with you,” exclaimed Captain
Travers, getting eagerly on his feet.
“I am going,” said Miss Meely, as
they walked toward the town, “to return
a Bible to Miss Miffin. I borrowed it
last Sunday, and I must return it.”
Captain Travers’ blood chilled.
“As I passed your room last night, ’
he said, nervously, “I saw a book or
your bureau. I suppose that was it.”
“That was it,” replied the girl. And
Captain Travers’ heart sank. His $100
note was going to a woman he did not
even* know, and who probably did not
need it. The money must be recovered.
“Let me carry the book for you,”
said he.
Revolving the wildest schemes from
burglary to arson, the capitain walked
silently alongside of his companion
until Miss Miffin’s house was reached,
and this his hopes fell to zero, for
the spinster placed the Bible on a chest
of drawers beyond the reach of any one
save an expert thief. ,
Miss Miffin was most favorably im
pressed with Captain Travers, and in
vited him to call again. As the cap
tain was determined to get back his
mo y, he gladly accepted and the next
evening repeated his visit. But luck
was against him. Although he pro
longed his call far beyond the usual
limits of such a visit, no opportunity
cam e to get his hands on the Bible
without Miss Miffin’s knowledge. The
money, however, must be obtained. It
would not do to allow Miss Miffin to
have it, and if she talked about her
find, as was most likely, it would cer
tainly be attributed to him sooner or
later, and then his deception would be
exposed to his old friend and, besides,
he would look ridiculous. He called
again the next night and the next, all
without result.
Things were getting warm. Miss
Miffin would certainly use the Bible on
Sunday, for she taught at Sunday
school, and Sunday was only two days
off. The deed must be done quickly.
In the meantime the captain’s regular
vis-.s to Miss Miffin had caused talk,
ne was regarded as a most ardent suit
or for Miss Miffin’s hand, and that
spinster when probed with questions
blushed and said, with a simper, that
possibly something might happen. Cap
tain Travers, even amid his troubles,
could not but notice the arch glances
of Miss Meely, and her sly hints at
weddings bells and orange blossoms.
Captain Stubbs amused his guest at
breakfast by recounting the fate of
sundry shipmasters who had made fools
of themselves by marrying late in life,
but as Captain Travers did not under
stand the point, it did no good.
“It must be done tonight,” muttered
the captain, as he trudged toward Miss
Miffin’s home Friday evenin. “I am go
ing away Monday morning, and it must
be done tonight.”
But this evening, like its predeces
sors, brought the captain no nearer his
goal. He tried to turn the talk to
ward Bibles, hoping for an opportunity
to get his hands on the longed for
volume, but Miss Miffin'insisted on talk-
in about other thins. Finally he an
nounced, in the bitterness of his de
feat, that he was going to leave on Sun
day, to rejoin his vessel.
Instantly Miss Miffin hurst into
tears.
“Good-by,” said Captain Travers,
gloomily.
Miss Miffin wept more sorely.
“What’s the matter?” he asked.
“What—what will the neighbors say,”
sobbed Miss Miffin. “What will they
think. Oh, captain, I’ll die with
shame!”
“What should they think?”inquired
the* amazed captain.
“They think you were coming to see
me; that you intended to marry me,’
sobbed Miss Miffin. “Oh, what shall 1
do? I’ll die!”
A great light burst upon the cap
tain. In his search for an oppor
tunity to recover his unlucky money
he had seriously compromised an in
nocent female. She would be the
butt of unfriendly ridicule. She would
be laughed at, and all his fault.
“I—I did come to see you,” he stam
mered.
Miss Miffin threw her arms around his
neck and laid her head on his breast.
“I am yours, Job,” she said—“yours till
death.”
Captain Travers walked home in a
trance. He had not recovered his money,
but he found himself an engaged man—
an unexpected development. The next
morning Captain Travers ate breakfast
uncomfortably under a fire of suspicious
glances from Captain Stubbs, and he was
relievedly preparing to rise from the ta
ble when a shriek sounded from upstairs,
and Miss Meely rushed into the room,
hysterically waving a $100 note.
“I found it In my Bible!” she cried.
“Now I’ll get a new dress. ” Then she
ran across the room and kissed Captain
Travers.
“I am glad whoever put it there did
not put it in Miss Miffin’s Bible,” she
said. “They were both on my bureau, and
he might have made a mistake.”
Captain Stubbs glowered at his guest.
“Have you made a fortin’?” he asked.
“No, Sam,” replied Captain Travers me
chanically. “Poor as a rat, Sam.”
But Mr. and Mrs. Travers lived happily,
and Meely wore a new dress at the wed
ding.

HOSIERY AND KNIT GOODS
HAVE DOUBLED IN VALUE
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.—A report on
the hosiery and knit goods industry is
sued today by the census bureau shows
that in the decade ending with 1909
the output of socks and stockings and
like articles more than doubled in
value.
The value of the output of the 1374
hosiery and knit goods mills in 1909
was more than $200,000,000, the report
states. The industry is not confined to
any one section of the country, but is
widely scattered, mills being found in
thirty-eight states. New York state,
however, produced more than one-third
of all the manufactures turned out.

study. Miss Burnett, who was twenty-

Westhoff, Texas.—Mrs. Evie L. Powell,
of this town, authorizes the following
for publication: “I had terribly nervous,
trembling and smothering spells, and
became so weak I could hardly get
around. Would almost fall asleep dur
ing a common conversation, and became
breathless after the first dozen wor.ds. ^
1 thought I had lung trouble, but'
found it was all caused from womanly
weakness.
I then commenced using Cardui, the
woman’s tonic, and the first bottle gave
me relief. Am now feeling fine, and
just as wide awake and as lively as
anyone.
I know I would have been a wreck
had it not been for Cardui, and I do not
think enough can he said in favor of
this great woman’s medicine. I gained
more strength from one bottle than any
thing else I ever tried. I recommend it
to all women or girls who are without
the glow of health on their cheeks.”
These nervous, trembly,^ smothering
spells which Mrs. Powell describes are
very common symptoms of womanly
trouble, and should be given the proper
treatment to prevent a general break
down.
For over fifty years Cardui, the wom
an’s tonic, has been building up the
weak, nervous women to strength and
health. It will do the same for you. if
given a fair trial.
Get a bottle of Cardui today.
