WHAT VIVISECTION IS DOING. KoU. it D. Ileinl it Leslie's. “Mont of the outcry u^ainxt animal experimentation, ’ said Dr. Klexner, “is raised by women. They are Mincer**, but luck facts,’ he continued. “They point to tin* suffering. Almost without exception the operations are pain less. In human surgery there is pain sometimes. People have got to he hurt some tune unavoidably. For operations the animals are put under anesthetics, just as hu man being* are. Sixty to 90 per cent of tfie cases are' inoculations, which give n*> more pain than a hypodermic. In a large number ot instances, the object having been attained, the animal is not allowed to c<*me from the anesthe tic. That animal never suffers. Some have got to be kept, alive t<> s' i* the final result . I’bey are nursed as a patient in a hospital. There is this difference —animals recover many tunes faster than pc* *pl>*. “Allowing that animals an killed.

TfN THOUSAND ACRES OF FIGS FUR SOUTH GEORGIA COUNTY. Tilton, (ia., April 9.—Ten thousand acres in ligs Bounds pretty large for n fig orchard, but that is juat what is taking place in this county, and by flic begin-' ning ot 1911 Tift county will propably have more fig trees grow ing than any other county in* America. I'lie Harding tig farm is now be ing laid oil' and planted for the Georgia Development Company, and within the next thirty day will he ready to put on sale for t be cult iv.ition of ligs. It has long been known that fig culture in this section was a prof itable business, but nobody had thought about putting into opera tion on a real commercial business until captain Tift decided to put on a large tract of bis beautiful lands for sale in this county. The only reason why figs have not been a commodity on the northern markets thus far is that thev have not been raised in quantities sufficient to warrant any outlay to get them there in aafety. \\ In n they are grown in colonies, this care can he taken, ami they can be handled without bruising and, if cooled before shipping, they will go to New- York in perfect condition. And • •me the N* » Yorkers take to figs wit h cream ami sugar tor break fast, it will he impossible to sup ply the d* tun mi. It is istimated that tig- w .! 1 pay the growers from s•'» to $1,500 an icre. HOW AND WHEN TO SEE HALLEY'S COMET. If you get up just before Huuriae April S, or thereabouts, you will /••t a glimpse of Halley’s comet m tin* eastern sky, says I’rof. John \. -fockwell, famous American astronomer. From that time it will rise a little earlier each morn ing until April IK when it will be visible for two hours and u half before sunrise. After May 18, we won’t have to lose any more beau ty sleep to see it, as it will be viai lib in the western sky alter sun- You s**e Proffesser Stock well thinks we will still he here to see it nfter May 18. lb -ays tin* comet will blaze in th‘* night sky far into the summer, und lovers may sit in the coinet nglit uiul promise each other to fly through eternity together. It will steadily grow smaller and dimmer as it, shoota away from the sun on the side of the solar system opposite us. At its larg . -I, t in* comet will appeur as large is the sun to us, says ProfTessor Stock w ell. BLACKS LYNCH BLACKS.

WOMAN VOWS REVENGE. M icon, tin., April I.—Avowing that -Ini will turn the gun she us <l upon herself when she tried to ■ ■nd her own life, upon the man to i whom she charges the trouble, ‘ when she is able to leave her bed again, Mrs. Lillie Miller is stead ily improving at the Macon hos pital. Her chances for recovery' ire now much better than they have hereto lore been. Her inju-i l ies were of a most critical nature, j ,t he shot she fired having pierced dangerously near the heart. Mrs. Miller is reticent as to the trouble and the cause of her at tempt to kill herself.

Valdez, Alaska, April I.—James 1 Fish, aged 7i>, and a native of j Manchester, England, started on i i trip to Tiis birthplace today,with the intention of covering on foot 1 all the land portions of his jour ney . He will go by boat to Santa Cruz, Cal., where he will start his mg walk across the country, fin -king at Boston. He has been a indent ol Valdez ten years, dur ig which time he Ims never been ■ lit of Alaska. The fed ral grand jury at Chi ■ngo lias returned indictments .gainst the National Packing com pany and ten subsidiary cempaii s t<>r alleged violations of the Sherman act by fixing prices and t -training trade. The national government, a> usual, is a lap or \ i . bind the state govern menu tru-d-busting, a New Jersey grand try having taken similar 'action -.‘V*.ral weeks ago. This - no reason, however, why the i deral government, now that in dictment have been found, should not push vigorously the prosecu te i. <>f the concerns indicted, in Which work it will have the ear *-t support of the meat-eatiog public. TUP: MONTGOMERY MONITOR—THURSDAY. APLIL 14. 1910 CURED HER. Amelia Bingham is no longer a suffragette. She is not even a suffragist. She said so herself on her return to the Tinted States on the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria this week. When in New York less than a year ago. Miss Bingham was one of the most active leaders and ad vocates of the woman’s rights movement. But her study of En glish suffragettes and their noth ods hue driven her into the runk of the antis. “I am convinced that the death knell ot the American home will be sounded if women evergain tin* ballot,” said Miss Bingham. 1 have become convinced during n i stay abroad thut American wuim Ido not need the ballot. They ur* better off, huppier, und bett treated than any race of won * < on the face of the earth. In K <:■ land it is different. There, 11.. r.* are twocodes of laws, one for wom en, another for men. And tin men always get the best of it even in the divorce courts. An Englishman can beat his wife and she has no redress in the courts. “The Englishwomen are on the wrong tack in the methods th\ take to secure the franchise. On several occasions when 1 was in London the conduct of the women as they stormed parliament disgusting. Their actions mad.* 1 me ashamed that I was ever as- - ciated with such a movement." — Ex. COTTON BISCUIT. j Some of our clever inventor have been trying to devise a ma chine that will sew, cook, feed the cow and put the baby to sleep all at once. Nature has beaten them jto their goal by thousands of j years. She packed all these pos sibilities into the cotton seed as , she sat weaving this wonderful old earth dim aeons ago. For many decades past one after another of the startling uses to which cotton may be turned has been brought into the realm of < discovery. The Egyptians knew i that men could clothe themselves with cotton. But not until re i iGently have we found out that we lean feed ourselves with cotton, that we can serve up this magical, proteun plant in the form of deli cious hot biscuit or hatter cakes for breakfast. , Col. John W. Allison, of Ennis, Texas, appears to have been the Columbus of this new food eontin | ent. Some years ngo, as lie stood whiffing the wholesome odor of | cotton seed meal, he took it inti his fertile brain that tin- product could be used as a substitute for ! Hour. He got a batch of the stuff mixed it with the proper ingre dients of the dough tray und put it in the oven. From that day to this he has been eating cotton ; seed bread. There’s no mystery or secret to 'the process. Cotton seed flour. |he says, is no more than finely iground, carefully bolted cotton seed meal. In breads requiring !to be kneaded, savs the colonel ! the cotton seed flour, since it ii practically without gluten, must be mixed with a portion of wheat llour. Otherwise, the product in treated just as corn meul is and according to reliable palates, it makes delectable cakes, puddings, pies, doughnuts and what not. This discovery is really more in teresting than Commander Peary’ arrival at the north pole—let u presume for the -sake of pence th the commander did arrive. F it represents another inroad the unsearchable riches of natur It suggests that as yet eivilizat i has barely scratched the out crust of the earth's marvel- ana fecund uses. Billions of dollars in wealth will no doubt be reali - ed from what we now consider waste products. Many a weed, uow despised, will be foundeffica cions for nourishing the blood or healing its distempers. It is thus that flax and coal and cotton have come to minister to man. In the moautiine, please pass the cotton biscuit.—Atlanta Journal. * ADMUtiI-'I ij atok's Sale By virtue '.f an order from the Court nf Ordinary of Montgomer. ! coni pc, will t *«• -old a! public outers j " ini th«- fir- 1 sue-day in May, 1910. a thr* I'oiiri lion-f ■ loor in-aid county hi’twi*. li -'.il hour-of -air*, the <ra.*r of I i . i in -aid county de-crh .■d n- folio . : Two hundred and -ix ty-foiir eel* of land, more fully de -iiibid follows: Twelve acr<—. more or !•■- . carved out of the -outli ra-' co i ■!
