LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE The farmers are now busy pre paring their land for the coming crop and they make good use of these fine days. The sparrow hawk sits on the tall tree to catch the upturned mouse; the blue bird is perched on the corn stalk and singing his springtime song as the plowman and the plowshare glides by and now then the croak of the frog is heard in the marsh, and the cow bell is beginning to go with the sinking sun. and when the shad ows of evening fall we unhook old Mike and keep step with the tingle of the traces on our way to the shack on the hill and are at ease with the world and all mankind. There have been tons upon tons of paper in the last 6 months advising the farmers to diversify their crops, but the next 30 days will decide the issue. And it is now left with the farmer to make the decision. If there are too many cotton rows fixed up the situation is lost, but if there is a large per cent of corn rows fixed up the situation is saved. The thing is up to us, and let’s all be Smith. Mrs. T. W. Nelson had as her guests Sunday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Sam Smith of Cork and Mrs. Annie Moss of Union Ridge. “10 CENT CASCARETS" IF BILIOUS OR COSTIVE For Sick Headaches, Sour Stomach, Sluggish Liver and Bowels—They Work WhUe You Sleep. Furred Tongue, Bad Taste, In digestion, Sallow Skin and Miser able Headaches come from a tor pid liver and clogged bowels, which cause your stomach to be come filled with undigested food, which sours and ferments like garbage in a swill barrel. That’s the first step to untold misery— indigestion, foul gases, bad breath yellow skin, mental fears, every thing that is horrible and nausea ting. A Cascaret tonight will give your constipated bowels a thor ough cleansing and straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep—a 10-cent box from your druggist will keep you feel ing good for months, adv just about as shy of guano this time as a fox is of a steel trap. For if prices are low next fall we can’t pay for it and pay other things. If the farmers were to use as much guano as the heads of the agricultural department advises us to use under all kinds of crops it would break John D. Rockefeller. Plow Handles.

Mayfield Evangelical Epigrams. By Elam Fianklin Dempsey, B. D. Professor of Theology in Emory College The meek are more concerned with doing their duty than with securing their rights. Reject the 3un because of its Bpots, but do not desert the church because of its flaws. Meditation is mentally chewing the cud of experience. Do not substitute good inten tion for good sense.
