Remedy For Pistol Toting.
Savannah Novr.,
The entire country has heard of Col.
Jack Chinn. He is a famous citizen of
Kentucky who knows how to handle
the bowic knife when he thinks his life
is in danger. He is now a mmber of
the Kentucky Legislature, and proposes
to introduce a bill which provides that
pistol toters shall bo sent to the insane
asylum. His theory is that all those
who carry concealed pistols or carry
pistols in a belt around their waists are
more or less insane. He thinks, how
ever, that their insanity is of a kind
that can be cured, and hence ho wants
them to be sent to an insane asylum,
whore they can see the results of en
couraging a mean und revengeful tem
per. His idea is that seeing these hor-
, rible examples of bad temper and mur
derous inclinations they will be cured
of the pistol-toting habit.
That these pistol-toters are mildly in
sane he assumes from the fact that
very nearly all who are indicted for
murder plead temporary insanity as a
defense. If they are so insane as to
commit murder they must be insane in
a lesser degree when they adopt a pis
tol-toting practice.
We are not sure that the remedy pro
posed by Col. Chinn for the evil isn’t a
good one. It is pretty certain that if
the pistol-toters were really in danger
of being confined in an insane asylum
unless they gave up the pistol-toting
habit they would abandon it. It is much
better to bo a freo man with a reputa
tion for sanity than a pistol-toter threat
ened with a term in an insane asylum.
Col. Chinn says one reason for the in
troduction of his bill is that he has been
compelled to go armed the greater part
of his life to safeguard himself against
theBO pistol-toters. He is tired of be
ing always on guard against them. Be
lieving them insane ho wants them
either cured or kept where they will not
be able to harm anybody.
It is curious how the pistol-toting hab
it still clings to certain sections of the
country. Nearly all of the tragedies in
which human life is sacrificed are due
to it If the pistol were not so handy
men would settle their quarrels much
more satisfactorily. So many of them
wouldn’t be criminals, refugees from
the law, or financial wrecks, duo to
expensive trials, or mental wrecks be
cause of the accusing conscience. It
isn't the bravo man who is the habitual
pistol-toter. It is generally the cow
ardly man who hopes to take an adver
sary. It is a pity that every State can
not bo induced to follow Col. Chinn’s
lead and hnve its Legislature adopt Col.
Chinn's plan. The insane asylum would
undoubtedly provo to bo an effective
remedy for the pistol-toting evil if the
pistol-toters could be sent there.
Wasted Charity.
Kansna Cily Star.
Robert Loveman, the noted Georgia
poet, said, in the course of an address
on charity in Dalton, Ga.:
“All (jases, naturally, are not worthy
cases. It was but the other month a
Dalton philanthropist, visited a desti
tute negro family, had his heartstrings
torn with pity, and drawing out his
wallet, ho said:
“Here, Calhoun, take this dollar and
go and buy a chicken for the Christ
mas dinner. ’
“Calhoun, the young son of the house,
accepted tho banknote gratefully, and
the boy’s mother, with tears in her
eyes, bowed the philanthropist out. But
tho garden wnlk wound by an open
window, and as the departing philan
thropist passed tho window he heard
tho mother say shrilly to her son:
“ 'You, Cal, you jes’ gimme dat dol-
lah an’ go git do Christmas chicken in
do imtch’ral way.’ ”
Never depend on a stuttering man.
He’ll break his word.

There's Romance in Oor Mill Districts.
Griffin Herald,
Down the street comes the "hack."
The wide-eyed children, who have dart
ed back and forth from the curb to the
entrance of the tiny shut-in garden for
an hour, catch sight of tho white bow
tied on the whip, and shrilly announce
their discovery to those waiting in the
house.
The old folks, in their Sunday best
—father stretching his neck in vain
search for comfort that refuses to come
with the celluloid collar, mother rustling
in her black silk—hasten across the
brick-paved court to the street.
"They’re cornin’! They’re cornin’!”
chant the youngsters, their hair-ribbons
bobbing as they dance, their small,
rough, painfully scrubbed hands filled
with rice. The driver pulls his stocky
steed up to the curb, and the groom
emerges, backing out in awkward em
barrassment, the while he tries to
avoid tho shower of rice, as one foot
feels for tho ground.
Then—the bridel Her just-washed
hair trimmed with orange blossoms,
her hands covered with long silk
“mitts" she has dreamed of so often,
her soft, cream-tinted dress still carry
ing a basting thread here and there.
The veil catches in the door, and is
laughingly released by the bridesmaid
inside. Mother envelopes her in wel
coming arms, father heavy-handedly
slaps the red-faced groom on the back,
and little Mamie with a basketful of
confetti—she has used all her school pad
up making it herself—assaults the
whole party, and snatches her new
brother’s tuberose from his buttonhole.
They have been married; they have
been photographed; they have been for
the long, slow hack ride through quiet
city streets, and now—they are near
ing the end of their wedding day. To
morrow she, the quickest carder in the
factory, will give up the loom and
spindle and earn her living in a new
way—with pot and skillet and broom;
and he, with a new sense of the im
portance of holding his job, will work
harder than ever and strive daily to
please the foreman of the cotton fac
tory. For to-daj they have reached a
point in the road where both have
stood on tip-toe, and, looking over the
hedge of Everyday, caught a glimpse
of the Primrose Way.
Heigho! Who says there is no such
thing left in the workaday world as
Romance? Let the seeker wander from
the main-traveled thoroughfares. For
he will find it—if he tries to—in the
quiet little side street!

A Good Shot.
Bill Jones was an eccentric character,
a local Justice of tho Peace in a South
Carolina town. He was exceedingly
tall—so attenuated, in fact, that but
for his hat he would not have cast a
Bhadow. One night a number of fel
low bon vivants joined hinj in a sym
posium, and many mint juleps werg
consumed. One of the party unsteadi
ly produced a revolver. It was acci
dentally discharged, an I a bullet struck
Bill Jones in the leg.
Conscience-stricken and wabbly with
excitement and juleps, the owner of
tho weapon hastened to the home of
the nearest doctor and pulled the door
bell.
At length tho physician, who had
himself been spending a riotous even
ing, stuck his head from the second-
story window.
“Whazza mazzer?” he demanded
quickly.
“I just shot Bill Jones in the leg,”
replied tho man below.
“Shot Bill Jones in the leg?” re
peated the doctor, wonderingly.
“Ash wha’ I shaid,” returned the of
fender. “Shot Bill Jones in the leg.”
Tho doctor gazed down upon him ad
miringly.
"Well,” he said, that wash a h—1 of
a good shot.”
And he closed the window and went
back to bed.
Should a Wife Demand to Know Where
Her Hniband Spends His Evenings?
Barbara Boyd.
When a man begins to spend his ev
enings away from home without telling
his wife where he is going she is facing
a problem that has worried more than
one married woman? Shall she demand
to know where he goes? Shall Bhe ac
cept the situation as indifferently as she
can and go about and have a good time
herself? All three courses present them
selves to a woman with this problem on
her hands, but it is most difficult to
know which is the best to adopt.
If a man absents himself from his
home in the evenings and cares bo little
for his wife’s feelings as not to tell her
where he is going, demanding to know
will do little good. It will either bring
on a quarrel or he will evade the true
answer. If he is absolutely indifferent
as to care neither for his wife’s loneli
ness or worry, a remedy for this cal
lousness will not be found in demanding
to know where he is going.
To sit at home and worry, asking no
questions, does little good either. But
a wife can frequently win a .husband
back to interest in his home again by
assuming an indifference to his comings
and goings by appearing to be having a
very good time herself and at the same
time by so dressing as to appear more
than usually attractive and by making
the home more than usually cozy and
restful.
Man is a strange being. While a wo
man pines for him and sits moping dis
consolately by the fireside because of
his absence, she has little attraction for
him. Let her become indifferent to him
and find plenty of consolation and com
pany elsewhere and immediately she
gains value in his eyes.
A man who truly loves his wife will
frequently spend an evening away from
her without telling where he is going.
There is no harm in this, though it is
kinder and more considerate to let her
know. But the mere fact of telling a
wife where he is going is obnoxious to
some men, since it seems an acknowl
edgment that he is in leading strings.
A man should be too big and generous
to look at it in this light. But many
are not. To demand to know where he
is going only makes the situation worse.
This is never advisable under any cir
cumstances. If the husband, doesn't
freely tell where he is going better let
the matter rest.
If he spends so many evenings away
from home that it is a source of worri-
ment, then try the diplomatic method
of first making the hom4 so attractive
that he will feel that he is leaving the
best behing him when he goes. Then
be apparently having such a good time
without him, though never failing in
loving duty to hW, the wife can so
arouse his curiosity or pique his pride
that she has all odds in her favor to
winning him back, unless he has strayed
entirely beyond her reach.
A prominent Boston attorney tells of
an American tourist hailing from the
West who was out sightseeing in Lon
don. They took him aboard the battle
ship Victory, which was Lord Nelson’s
flagship in several of the most famous
naval triumphs. An English sailor es
corted the American over the vessel,
and coming to a raised brass tablet on
the deck, he arid, as he reverently
raised his hat:
“’Ere, sir, is the spot where Lord
Nelson fell.”
“Oh, it is?” replied the Westerner,
blankly. “Well, that ain’t nothin’; I
nearly tripped on the blame thing my
self.”

the refuge of his shoulder, relates Life.
‘•Well,” he replies, “after the way
my arm just naturally slipped around
your waist as you unconsciously leaned
toward n e, and my fingers tilted your
chin, as you unconsciously lifted your
head, and I bent forward where your
lips were waiting, and didn’t get the
kiss either on your nose or your chin,

which you have displayed, I shall say

How
Do You
Feed
Your Crops?
D
O YOU KNOW just what your cotton and corn
need, and are you furnishing it in such quantities
as required and In such shape that the
plant can use it ?
Suppose you should put the food for your stock in a
box, nail it up and place it in their trough—would you ex
pect them to thrive and grow fat ?
Hardly 1
Well, did it ever occur to you that when you use lumpy,
badly mixed fertilizers you are jutting this same proposi
tion up to your crops—offering them plant food in such
shape that they can’t get to it?
Fertilizers, to do your crops any good, must dissolve in
the soil Waters. These are constantly in motion, rising to
the surface during the day and sinking at night—passing
and repassing the roots of the plant, which absorb the food
contained in the water—and this is the only way in which
the plant can feed.
Therefore, when you buy fertilizer, you should do so
with the idea of furnishing food for your crop and on the
same principle that you should purchase food for your
stock. It should not only contain the necessary Ammonia,
Phosphoric Acid and Potash, but above ail else these
should be in soluble form—the mechanical condition
of the fertilizer should be such as to permit the plant to
absorb every particle of it, and the goods should be manu
factured from materials that will not give up their plant
food at one time, but furnish a steady supply throughout
the entire growing season.
This is the fertilizer you should have and can det—
in only one way. It is impossible to produce a goods like
this by the dry-mixing of raw materials, whether you do
this at home with a shovel and a screen or buy it from
someone who has made it the same way—the only differ
ence being in the quantity.
These materials must be ground to a powder, and it re
quires machinery costing thousands of dollars to do it
properly. They must then be so manipulated that when
complete, you have a compound, each ounce of which is
exactly like every other ounce, and not a mixture, one
part of which would contain too much Ammonia and too
little Potash, while another part would be exactly the
opposite—and all of it contain plant food locked up and
not available.
Remember that the chemical analysis of a fertilizer is no
test of its crop growing qualities. The chemist tan pul
verize lumps and by the use of various means search out
the plant food ; your crop can’t.
You can take an axe, break open the box and get the
corn; your mule can’t.
Don’t risk a, crop failure!
