But both experience and observation

Those farmers, who have failed to
embrace the fallseason for sowing the

chances on the January and February
sowings, which sometimes produce
abundant yield. For grain crops
are such valuable adjuncts to the
farm that farmers should embrace
every opportu&jtytQ„iav# them.

Liberty Hill Loeaie.
Liberty Bill, Ga., Dec. 22.—Miss
Milt and Kate Whatley, two charm¬
ing young ladies of Monroe, after a
stay of several days with friends nnd
relatives at Liberty Bill and vicinity,
have returned home, to the regret of
their many new friends.
Liberty Hill claims the“bossshot”
among the girls, Miss—-while
out on a still hunt recently, killed
what she thought to be a cub, but
afterwards proved to be her fellow’B
pet cow.
Rumor says we are to have a mar¬
riage soon.
Juo. P. Brown is soon to erect a
mill at his old gin stand, which will
be of great convenience to the com¬
munity.
The people have been bountifully
blest with good crops; most of them
are done gathering and are making
preparations for another year.

farmers are having a “faf' old time.

Caraccas Spanish.
A correspondent of the Chicago News
writes from Caraccas detailing some of
his laughable experiences with the Span¬
ish language as it is there spoken. Some
of the most amusing of these curiosities
of language are on the bills of fare.
One item that appeared almost daily
was “garden eggs.” We studied over
this for a time, and finally, out of curi¬
osity, we ordered some, It Turned out to
be egg plant.
Another puzzle was “papas en caini.
sas.’’ A “caraisa” means in ordinary
speech a night-shirt or the - jacket of a
pajama, be and the natural inference seemed
to that we had landed among a set of
cannibals, who were serving up some¬
body’s papa in his night-shirt.
But “papas” in Spanish means pota¬
toes, and this mysterious article of food

much like the name of a numerous and
highly respected Irish family. It made
us laugh to call for a “maloney,”and we
thought it still more amusing when we

But there are queerer things than
jhis in the Spanish language. The pupil
of the eye, for example, is “the little
quite girl Of poetical the eye,” subject—are and the nostrils—not “the win,
so a
dows of the nose.” * '
The ‘ ‘dado” is the finger, and the thumb
is “la dadp pulgar.” “Pfilga” means flea,
and the thumb therefore is the “flea fin¬
ger”—a fact which illustrates one of the
principal occupations of the people.
Th* haash, drastic purgative, once deemed
so indispensable, have given place to milder
and more skilfully prepared laxatives; lienee

them for costiveness, indigestion, and liver

Crumbled, when this flickered down to a
soft glow the gathering and scene was
ghastly in th« extreme. Off to the rear
of the hut, which afforded an animated
foreground, tall gums, cypress and water
oaks reared their heights. In one of
these a screech owl had taken up his
post and sent shivers down the spinal
columns of his listeners with his dis¬
cordant and gruesome cries. When this
ill omened bird alights near a negro’s
cabin and, begins his clamor, the hus¬
band sticks the tongs in the Are to avert
the death which the bird's presence* is

Sharpening Knives.
It is a fact, well known by dealers io
cutlery, that not one man in fifty knows
how to sharpen a pocket knife. A razor
must be laid flat on the houe, being hol¬
low ground and requiring a fine edge.
The pocket knife, however, requires a
stiff edge, and the moment it is laid flat
on a stone, so as to touch the polished
side, its edge is ruined. The blade must
be held at an angle of 20 or 25 degs., and
have an edge similar to a chisel. This is
called the “camel," and is marked on all
new knives by a fine white line which
does not remove or touch the polished
surface.—New York Commercial Adver
