young man easiest,” said the cornfed

It preserves the flesh when lacerated
or wonnded in any way. Stops the
bleeding, stops the pain and heals
quicker than anything. That is what
Dr. Tichenor’s Antiseptic does. Try it
when you get hurt. Ask druggists for
it. _ o -

Horace Greeley once had a discus

civil war. lie was using as his Anal
argument the inability of women to

event of war?”
'Just what you would do. Mr. Gree

stay in an office and write articles urg

wanting ill it. I remember one eminent
literary man who, in spite of all cau

rather fashionable day reception
what would now be called a golf suit,
of tlig loudest-possible plaid, like that
of the Scotch cousin in Punch who

We are having lino spring showers.-
The farmers got in four days plant-
ig last week.and we certainly had
four busy dayB, as everyone was trying
to get ail done he could; but owing to
the late start, there will have to be
some cottonseed planted in May. The
cotton acreage will be a little larger in
this section than it was last year. There
is more wheat sown here than has been
in several years; and the prospect is fine
for a good harvest. Spring oats are
looking well. Gardens are late hut dc-
ing well. We have plenty of peaches
and apples, and the blackberry crop
promises an abundant yield to those
who look with fond'anticipation to the
coming of this much needed crop which
comes to the rescue of the needy and
feeds the hungry. We expect to hear
from Bine Jay and that long linen
duster of his in some brier patch telling
the boys to eat, drink and be merry.
There has been much writing done on

“Are you going to move the well,

whose employer bad announced Ills in

“No.” answered the gentleman brief

“John,” said Mrs. Tliursby, “you
were saying yesterday that you were

“Yes,” Mr. Thursby replied, “and
I'm terribly worried. 1 didn't sleep
a wink last night.”
“1 think I heard you say something,
too, -about a note held by Mr. Hewitt,
didn’t I?”
“That’s what is causing the trouble.
If I could get him to extend the time
on it for about 90 days, everything
would come out all right. I could then
realize on some securities l hold and
get ou my. feet, but if he insists on
payment now I shall have to sacrifice
_my valuable holdings, aud this will
practically ruin me.”
“Have you asked him for an exten
sion of the time?”
“No. That wouldn’t do any good.
He never favored anybody in his life.
If he knew how I am fixed, he would
be all the more anxious to press me
for an immediate settlement.” '
“Well, don’t yon worry, dear. His
wife, you know, is several years older
than I. We met at a party this after

when I mentioned the fact, fearing,
of course, that I was going to tell how
long ago it was, and that she was sev
eral grades above me because she was
older, but I put down my pride and
pretended that as I remembered her
she was a little thing in pinafores just
learning her primer lessons when I
graduated. You go to Hewitt’s house

to extend 'the time on that note.”—
