Tendency ol' tile Times.
The tendency of medical science
is toward preventive measures.
The best thought of the world is
being given to the subject. It is
easier and better to prevent than
to cure. It has been fully dem
onstrated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that
medical men have to contend
with, ioau be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain’s Cough Rem
edy. Pneumonia always results
from a oold or from an attack of
influenza (grip.) and it has been ,
observed that this remedy coun
teracts any tendency of these dis
eases toward pneumonia. This
has been fully provep in many
thousands of cases in which this !
remedy lids been used during the
great prevalence of colds and grip
ill recent years, and can be relied
upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia ofteu results from a
Blight oold when no danger is ap
prehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and
difficulty in breathing and pains
in the onest. then it is announced
that the patient has pneumonia.
Be on the safe side and tak«i
-Chain b'.*r Iain’s Cough Remedy as
soon as the oold is contracted. It
always cures. For sale by all
druggists.

;
Do Not Burn Off The Vegetation.
Southern Cultivator
It is an old custom to burn every
thing we can on the farm. This is a
great mistake. Every kind of rot
ting vegetable matter is valuable.
The decaying grass and sticks and
stalks and leaves of every sort help
to furnish readily soluble food for
the nest orqp. They make the best
possible manure except the animal
matter.
Bnt it is not alone for the manure
that they are valuable. In rotting
they create humus. Without humus
our Boils will nor yield; anything
that increases the humus in the soil
greatly increases the capacity of
that soil to produce.
For this reason we should careful
ly preserve and plow in every pos
sible pound of vegetable matter.
Whenever you see a smoke in the
farm you may know that there goes
part of that farmer’s money. Liter
ally “gone up in smoke.”
F>re has done almost as mueh
damage to the farms as the water.
Never burn anything that will rot.
Anything that will burn will rot;
therefore never burn anything on
the farm.
It is true that sometimes a very
heavy coat of grass poorly turned
under, and that too late in the sea
son, will out off capillary aotion uu-
til it has time to rot. This some
times causes a slight delay in the
crop and gives , some trouble in the
work. For this reason many have
decided that it pays to burn off the
grass, It may seem to do so on the
first crop t but so great is the benefit
later on that we can well afford to
lose this little for thu larger later
gain.
Keep the fires out of your farm.

Consolidation of Schools Continues
to Win Favor.
Southorn Education Board.
The cause of consolidation of
schools continues to win favor in
high places. It is now advocated
by every state superintendent of
publio instruction in the south, by
an overwhelming majority of county
superintendents, by most teaohers,
and by a goodly number of those
who have children in the schools.
Within the last two years the rna
jority of the governors of the states
haves urged legislation to prevent
the further sub-division of schools
and to increase consolidation. In
Tennessee, both Governor McMillan
in his last message, and Governor
Frazier, in his first message to the
legislature, urged such legislation in
the strongest te,ims. Governor Fra
zier says:
“My investigation leads i^e to the
conclusion that in many counties of
the Btato there are too many school
districts and too many schools. The
school fund is scattered among nu
merous small aud weak schools, thus
limiting the oapaoity and effective
ness and shortening the term of all.
A small Bohool is always a weak
8choo);it has not the vital and grow
ing power that numbers give.
“One of the crying needs of our
publio sehool system in Tennessee is
reasonable and praotioal consolida
tion. The tendency in our state to
multiply rural schools so as to locate
a publio school near to every man’s
door has caused a great waste of
publio money and has seriously im
paired the efficiency of our public
schools. We need, above all things,
stronger sehools and longer school
terms.”

Startled The Library Clerk.
One day last week, Bays the Phil
adelphia Ledger, a well dressed man
of gentlemanly appearance walked
into the music department of the
Congressional Library in Washing
ton and asked to see the catalogae.
There was only one clerk in the de
partment at the time, and she was a
young woman. She showed the man
where the catalogue was and he be
gan to tarn it over. After a while
she stepped up and said pleasantly:
“Oan I help you to find what you
want? Is there any particular piece
of music you are looking for?”
“I’m sorry, my dear, but I'm
obliged to say no.” he said.
The young woman was startled.
She oonld hardly believe her ears,
but as he did not look up from the
catalogue she began to think that
she must have misunderstood him.
She waited a moment, and as he did
not look up or speak again she clear
ed her throat rather nervously and
said:
“Perhaps I can help you. Did you
say you were looking for anything
that I can help you to find?”
“I’m sorry, my dear, but I’m
obliged to say no,” he replied.
This time there was no doubt
about it. The young woman turn
ed a frightened gaze around and
saw that she was alone. As the
musio department is in a remote
eorner of the Congressional Library
and there was no help at hand, she
turned around and walked precipi
tately toward the door. Then she
told herself that she was a coward,
and stole back to have another look
at the man.- It was not possible chat
so gentlemanly looking a man could
mean anything wrong. Besides, he
did not look up from the catalogue
or say anything more. So she came
back and said again:
“What is it you are looking for?
Oan I help you to find it? ’
“I’m sorry, my dear, but I’m
obliged to say no,” he said, in ex
actly the same toue as before.
He was a madman! She knew it
now, and Bke went to the furthest
corner of the department and sat
down. With a beating heart she
watched him out of the corner of
her eye while he pawed over the
catalogue. Still he did not look up,
and at last the quick beating of her
heart began to subside a little. She
resolved to be brave. Compressing
her lips, she walked resolutely over
to him and said, steadily but pleas
antly:
“What is the title of the music
you are looking foY?”
“ 'I’m Sorry, My Dear, But I’m
Obliged to Say NoP ” he said "is
the title of the song, but I know
neither the composer’s name nor the
publisher’s, This catalogue is a lit
tle intricate, and perhaps you can
help me to find my way through it.”
Then she blushed vividly and turn
ed to the catalogue to help him find
the song. But all the time she was
lookiug through the catalogue she
was inwardly calling herself names.
Comptroller General, Wright has
received a request from the state
auditor of North Carolina asking for
a copy of the Georgia laws govern
ing the payment of pensions. Geor
gia is the only state in the south
which cares for the veterans of oth
er states, who were here when the
pension law was originally passed,
and the comptroller general thinks
the commonwealths could not do
better than adopt a uniform law by
whioh all the old soldiers within
their borders could be properly ta
ken care of, as they are in Georgia.

Escaped an Awful Fate.
Mr. H. Haggins of Melbourne,
Fla., writes, “My doctor told me
I had consumption and nothing
could be done for me. I was given
up to die. The offer of a free trial
bottle of Dr. King’s New Discov
ery for Consumption, induced me
to try it. Results were startling.
I am now on the road to recovery
and owe all to Dr. King’s New
Discovery. It surely saved my
life.” This great cure is.guaran
teed for all throat and lung dis
eases. Price 50c and $1. Trial bot
