after It comes up so as to keep the
crust broken and prevent loss of moist
ure. Cultivate every week, also after
every rain.
Corn should be thinned to a stand by
tho time it gets 12 Inches high In or
der to avoid the useless waste of plant
food that goes Into tho extra plants.
A custom that Is prevalent in many
parts of Georgia, Is to do this thinning
when tho soil Is too wet for any other
kind of work. This is a bad custom and
should bo avoided If possible.
Better results are had when corn Is
thinned to one Htalk in u hill In con
trast to leaving two or more stalks
per hill at a greater distance in the
row.
Tho width of the rows should be
determined by the fertility of tho land.
"The richer the soli tho narrower the
rows,” Is a very good rule to follow.
If the soil is very fertile the plants
should, of course, be left thicker in
the drill.

In 1832 it was resolved to cm

Sunday School Union. Two year
laUi( 1833 j article 20 was adopted:
“weunanimously a. knowl.ge that
we have heretofore been too back
wart in our churches about the
support of the gospel among ns,
and therefore recommend to Un
churches to take into serious and
prayerful consideration the pro
priety of sustaining their pastors
so that they may give the w hole ol
their time to the work o' the min
istry, and of laying by them in
store to rend up to the next Assn

ministering brethern to travel and
preach to the destitute, and visit
all the churches in the Asso

I he next year “churches general
ly expressed a determination to
sustain their pastors,’’ but not yet
in favor of sustaining a domestic
mission, and some money sent up
was returned the churches. The
next year (,’hanga church was in
such destitute condition that one
and two preachers agree I to go
every month and preach Llit-ic.

to give the collection taken, after

was the decisive beginning of Mis

history tells us that a committee of
nine strong lirethern were appoint

NATURE AND ART IN ORA
TORY.
I am aware that It Is also a
question whether nature or learn
ing contributes most to oratory.
This Inquiry, however, has no
concern with the subject of my
work, for a perfect orator can t>e
formed only with the aid of both,
hut I think It of great impor
tance how far we consider that
there Is a question on the point
If you suppose either to he In
dependent of the other nature
will he able to' do much with
out learning, hut learning will
he of no avail without the as
sistance of nature. But if they
he united In equal parts 1 shall
l>e Inclined to think that when
hoth are hut moderate the ln
fluence of nature is nevertheless
the greater, but finished orators,
1 consider, owe more to learning
than to nature. Thus the best
husbandman cannot Improve soil
of no fertility, while from fer
tile ground something good will
ho produced even without the
aid of the husbandman. Yet if
the husbandman bestows his la
bor on rich land he will produce
more effect than the goodness of
the soul Itself. —Quintilian.
REFORMS IN AMERICA.
One of tho superstitions of
America is that all reforms will
proceed from education; there
fore there is n prospect of early
development of the educational
system, giving equal educational
opportunities to all. This is the
alleged ideal of America today.
It is defeated by the exactions
of the Industrial system, dis
criminations against nice and
sex and the early materialistic
Ideal of culture. These give
promise of being transformed be
fore many more fundamental so
cial changes take place. Our hu
manitarian tendencies will lead
us to provide for defectives and
dependents more scientifically
than we do today. Leniency to
first offenders, n generous parole
system, the employment of pris
oners and the payment of their
wages to their families, will
transform the penal system. De
fectives are treated scientifically
In many parts of the country,
and the study of eugenics has
not only begun, but has led to
significant applications In many
of our states. The great depend
ent classes for which no pro
vision hus as yet boon made are
the two kinds of unemployed,
the Jobless worker and the subsi
dized parasite. Employment
agencies and a Just system of
taxation will tend to eliminate
those.—Professor Charles Zueb-
Un.
AS TO DYING.
When some men die it Is as If
you had lost your penknife and
were subject to perpetual In
convenience until you could get
another. Other men’s going Is
like the vanishing of a great
mountain from the landscape,
and the outlook of life is changed
forever.—Phillips Brooks.
THE SONNET.
What is a sonnet? Tis the
pearly shell
That murmurs of the faroff mur
muring sea.
A precious jewel carved most
curiously.
It is a little picture painted well.
What is a sonnet? ’Tis the tear
that fell
From a great poet's hidden ec
stasy,
A two edged sword, a song, a
star—ah. me.
Sometimes a heavy tolling fuDer
al bell.
This was the flame that shook
with Dante's breath.
That solemn o.gan whereon Mil
ton played
And the clear glass where
Shakespeare's shadow falls.
A sea this is—beware who ven
turethl
For, like a fiord, the narrow floor
is laid
Midocean deep to the sheer
mountain walls.
—Richard Watson Gilder.

OVERFEEDING CAUSES
COLDS.
"The common cold Is a priv
ilege enjoyed almost wholly by
civilized man," says the Medi
cal Times. Superheated rooms,
keeping out fresh air, especial
ly from the bedrcom, improper
clothing and improper feeding,
with the germ as the transmit
ter from one favorable soil to
another, are the causes given
fer the popular ailment of civ
ilization. Both overeating and
eating the wrong kinds of food
are enormous factors in catarrh
production. "He who over
feeds,” says the editor quoted,
“Is likely to catch cold, and
his cold is likely to become
chronic." This agrees with the
statement in a recent Hint that
a cold is caught at tho dining
table, making due allowance for
the minor factors. .To main
tain a healthy action of the
skin Is a prime condition in the
avoidance of colds, and the
best way to do this Is to take
a warm bath once a week and
a cold “towel bath,” rubbing
the skin thoroughly, every
morning, carefully avoiding un
due chilling, especially In be
ginning the practice.

There arc many !> tie things to
annoy us, under present conditions
of life. The hurry, hard work,
noise and strain all tell on us and
tend to provoke nervousness and
irritability. V.'e arc frequently so
worn out we can neither eat, sleep
nor work with any comfort. We
are out of line with ourselves and
others as well.
A good thing to do under such
circumstances is to take something
like
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
to relieve the strain or. the nerves.
Mrs. J. B. Hartsfield, 33 Corput St.
Atlanta Ga., writes:
"l have on several occasions been
vastly relieved by the use of your med
icines. especially the Anti-Pain Pills,
which I keep constantly on haigl for
the use of myself, husband and two
sons. Nothing in the world equal* -them
as a headache remedy. Often t am
enabled by the use of one or two of
the PUls to continue my housework
when otherwise I would be In bed. My
husband joins me In my praise of the
Anti-Pain PlUs and Nervine."
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills
are relied upon to relieve pain,
nervousness and irritability in thou
sands of households. Of proven
merit after twenty years’ use, you
can have no reason for being longer
without them.
