Come, let me elntch thee. 2 have thee not and yet 1 have thee still. Art thou not. fatal vision, sensible To feeling as to light? or art thou but A dagger of the mind, a false creation, Troceedtng from the heat-opprecsed brain? 2 see thee yet in form as palpable At this which now I draw. Thou marshal’it me the way that I was going And such an instrument I was to use. Mins eyss are msde the foola o' the other senses Or else worth all the rest; I see thee still, And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood. Which wa» not so before. There’s no such thing; It is the bloody business which Informs Thus to mine eyes. Now o’er the one-half world Nature teems dead and wicked dreamt abase The curtain'd sleep; witchcraft celebrates Tale Hecate’s offering and wither’d mnrder, Alarmed by hie sentinel the wolf. Whose howl's his watch, thus with his stealthy pace. With Tarqnin’s ravishing strides, towards his design Moves like s ghost. Thon sure and firm-set earth Beer not my steps, which way they walk tor fear * The very atones prate of my whereabouts And take the present horror from the time Which now suite with it; whiles I threat he lives Words to tho heat of deeds too cold breath gives.

If the new* dlepatchen from U’a*hfn«<on lisve not ex«*rerated the »•- rioun effects of Senator Tillman's recent stroke of paralysis. It is more thnn likely that ills familiar accent* have been heard for the last time In the Federal somite chamber. This' Is the second attack of the kind from which the senior senator from. South Carolina ha* recently suffered. And even tho lie may recover his strength Bumciently to resume ills seal, the doctors give little ground for hope that he will ever participate Again In the senatorial debates. , ^ For some time past the signs of ill health have been only too mani fest in Senator Tillman. 1 He has lacked the snap and fire which formerly eifcracterlxed him, ami on several oeeaslons Ills effort* In the sen*te have disappointed hi* friends. They expected to hear the old-time Tillman. The speech of defense which he mafce against the strictures Of Presi dent Roosevelt during the final hours of the last administration belVayed Ids weak physical condition, nnd the mental ordeal thru which he has re cently passed In the loss of his grandchildren nnd the exposure of Ids |on’s domestic relations, has no doubt been severely taxing to his vital forces, already somewhat enfeebled. The senator's pitchfork methods of warfare have not always appealed to popular admiration and the traditions of the senate have sometimes been rudely upset by his vernacular Knglish. But neither the vigor of ids intellect nor.the courage of Ids convic tions hag ever beep seriously questioned, and South Carolina tins doubt less never been represented In the upper house by one more sincerely or loyally devoted to the welfare of the masses. In the hope that Ids life may be graciously spared, both friend* and foes will alike join. IMMORTALITY A SCIENTIFIC FACT, Wholly upart from the religious aspects of the problem of man's fu ture existence, Dr. Carl E. (Jullie, professor of physics In tile University of Michigan, discusses the possibility of life after death. And the conclusion at w'ltich this matter of fact wan of science ar rives is that the soul Is Immortal. Bay* he: -Our life Is a constant growth of the human intellect, ^losely connect ed with the development of the body. But we know that there is a con-' tlnuous Interchange of cells, decaying and forming, and yet. tho tho liv ing tissues may In the course of time be entirely renewed, the Individual continues to exist: It remains one and tho same. But even the matter and energy which have been given off from tho living body have not disap peared; they are still in existence, 1 tho disconnected from tho life-giv ing principle. Should we not demand that there should be a similar con servation for tile invisible part of our life? I have not tile power to de scribe what the life after deatli Is; the Intellect will not tell us. "While I have lo content myself with the assertion that mind Is ns Indestructible as matter and energy, my firm belief In evolution and In nil orderly plan of the universe,leads me to doubt that there can be any retrogression In its development. I believe my spirit will after death be more advanced In all the characteristics of the human soul. "And thus I find no difficulty whatever In believing in a personality embracing tile whole universe and intimately blended with the marvel ously Intricate system of material bodies, a personality different from ours, It Is true, but, since I form a part of it, one of the same nature as my own, only grander, wiser, more powerful and more lust. "Ill conclusion, let me say that the vises here advanced were not ob tained I,y adherence ti, any theological or philosophical dogma, but were the result of n purely scientific search after n word picture which would satisfy not only the Intellect but the human soul." ROYAL INCOMES FROM WASTE PRODUCTS. Waste products are sometimes potential (ioicomias. From the sawdust of the lumber camps It has been ascertained that an excellent quality of ethyl alcohol can be extracted, and when the process Is commercially put Into operation It will result In an economic saving of millions of dollars. Most of 11s can remember when cotton seed were used chiefly for pur poses of fertilisation. Hut today tlio nil extracted from cotton seed Is rapidly superseding lard. It represents one of the foremost Amerlesn industrles. nnd the revenues aris ing front this onee obscure source are fabulous. The nverage matt will be surprised to know that he seldom eAn a meal without unconsciously nt- tesllng Ills dependence upon cotton seed oil. Bakers use It In large quanti ties. I Sometimes It gets Into strange buttles, especially If It goes by way of Italy; nnd Instead of seasoning our food with the choice products of some Tuscan olive grove it now nml then turns out that we have paid unconscious tribute to the cotton fields of Dixie. . It is the foreigner who perpetrates the fraud. But hostility Is disarmed w : lieh we reflect that the product which the wily Italians' skill Inis disguised Is native to the hills and valleys of a clime far richer than Italy’s. Bevernl days ago at a banquet of the American Cotton Seed Oil asso ciation In New York rlty. Mr. Joseph G. Unsli, the president, made an Inter esting review of the rise of the eotton seed oil Industry In the United States. For exnntple, he stated that In lS«o there were lesa than twenty cotton seed mills ill existence. The total amount of eotton seed crushed per Annum was 611,000 tons. At the present time, however, there are 750 eotton seed mills In operation. These crush perunnum not less than 4.000,000 tons of cot ton seed nnd represent nn Invested capital of 1150,000,000. Besides, they give employment to 100,000 persons. Yet this i qpissal Industry which Is yearly making the South richer and richer Is only nn evolution from what was formerly a waste product. The hugest market for cotton seed oil In the United Btatee. according to Mr. Gush, is furnished by tho manufacturers of lard substitutes and Jn tills direction alone not lesa than 100,000,000 gallons of cotton seed oil are annually consumed. Another speaker at the banquet called attention to the fact that In the state of Mississippi there was xtlll an unrepealed lawr nn the statute books forbidding anyone to dump cotton seed In the river at certain points. It was conservatively estimated that this former waste product of the South's cotton fields was worth to this section not less than 1300,000,000 per annum. The fnerenss In the price of lard la Inclining the American housewife more and more toward the vegetable product. It is only a question of time, therefore, before the use of cotton seed oil for domestic purposes will be universal. And whpn the habits nf the hog aro considered In connection with the cede of Uevitlrus, why should the unclean swine be preferred at any time to the pure and wholesome extract of the cotton plant? Growth and Progress of the New South The Georgian Itere re**ordt each day ( some eennomh* f*et in referene# to the onward progre** of the Month. BY JOSEPH B. LIVELY. North Carolina baa in thirteen year* com# to lw» a great airs wherry-growing at at*, and (he eotintlea—Columbua, Way he, Dupllu, Tender and Sampson—produce per rent of all the Iterrte* grown in tbU state for mnrket. The Aral strawberries were grown In Columbus e»*uoty In 1*97. and that season only W0 crate*—four car load*—were shipped from chadbourn, while In a few yean the shipment* Increased to 1.623 carloads and the average during the past fire year* bat been 1.3*> ear*, with animal receipt* reaching the great figure of $FV,<*w>. Voir correspondent had an Interview- with J. A. Brown, of chadbourn. who hna done »n ranch for the promotion of Columbus county and all that part of the *tate a* to Immigration, berry-growing, truck-growing and gfneral development. .Mr. Brown wa* asked abont the tiumber of settlor* who have cotut Into Colutnhua county from the North nnd Northwest. lie *aya that about 1.000 hare beta settled 1u that section, and while n few have moved away other* have taken their places, *o that this new population ha# remained at ail time* up t,» the highest number. Thane n*w settlers have succeeded well, nnd have made admirable cltlseu*. The Inflow of this desirable population ha* not continued on *ttch ■ large scale since the people of Coltimhu* have ceased advertising, yat there U continued growth. The reason for not advertising further U that all the land which they bad for sale has l#*ett disposed of, and of course there la no further luceutive for advertising the section, so fur as the landholders are Individually concerned. Mr. Brown de clares thvt he knows no other place In the Mouth where Immigrants from other states have settled lii as great volume and have b***n so uulfontdy progressive nnd p#aperoua. lie says the immigration question is oue which ha* to In* follos.-il up and worked continually to keep It growing.—F. A. (lids in Monufactiirer*’ Keeofit, Daily Medical Chat 2MH..C, M. D. Control of Hemorrhage It la surprising how much blood mny bo lo»t without fatal readft to the person who laaei It. About 1-12 by weight of the human body is blood. Mo that a person weighing 160 pounds carries In Ills blood vessels ap proximately, twelve pints of blood—one pint weighing, roughly, one pound. Physiologist* tell us that one may lose half the blood In the body without fatal Issue, provided the losa Is sufficiently gradual. Thus the aver age man could recover after Ibe loaa If'six pints of Mood from n slowly bleeding vein, But the rapid loss of more than a quart of blood, as front n spurting artery, would probably prove fatal. Hemophslin, or “bleeder’s dlsasss," Is the not uncommon hereditary condition which prevents the normal clotting of the Moral during hemorrhage. People suffering from this disease nro said to have the "hetftor- rbuglc diathesis,” the hemorrhagic tendency ; and they may bleed) to death from a mere scratch. The question of what onuses Moral to clot precipitated nt one time much con troversy among physiologists. The seem ingly obvious explanation that exposure to air causes the blood to clot wits long since disproved, ns were other plausible theories. The present-day theory is that blood coagu lates by the formation of a gclatin-likc sub stance called fibrin end that fibrin Is made lip of three elements, or constituents, two of wbleb circulate In the blood, while the third 1* resident In tho wall# of the blood vessels. Fibrin is formed when laceration of the blood vessel# allow# this third incut to escape nnd conilugle with the other elements In tin* Moral. One or more of these flhrln elements therefore must be lacking In persons of the hemorrhagic tend- ncy. But how to supply thi# missing ele- iieht Is a problem yet to he solved. T/m standard agents for control of hemor rhage depend for their efficiency upon thetr power to contract the tissues, particularly tho mouths of the blood vessel#. One of the moat popular nnd efficient of thole agent# la tannic aehl, a yellowish powder sufficiently |» and harmless to be kept in every household. Almost auy astringent may be used to control hemorrhage—tincture of Iron, alum, etc. One of the most Interesting hemostatics (agents to stop hemorrhage) Is suprarenal extract—an extract obtained from tissues lying above the kidney in most animal#, sheep for instance. This extract Is put up by sundry manufacturer# under various names, and may he applied locally or token loternally as a constitutional rem edy. It Is one of the best agents for the control of nose-bleed. The mechanical devices employed by sur geon# for control of hemorrhage are unique; and most effective of these Is the hemo static forceps—a pln-llke Instrument, which has the bulldog facility of retaining its hold onee It Is damped In an object. Tho sur geon uses It to clrtinp the mouths of bleed ing arteries or vein*. The tourniquet Is « device familiar to nil. It is simply a large cord of rubber, or other material tied around an entire limb for the purpose of cutting off the circulation In the limb below any point where the tourniquet Is fixed. A handkerchief or any piece of cloth rolled Into s ropo may be effectively employed as a tourniquet, particularly if a suitable piece of wood Is used to twist It tightly about the limb. Of course damage may result from a tourniquet too tight or too long In u#e. Inexperienced persons have been known to make the terrible mis bike of applying a tourniquet below t bleeding point Instead of above It. This blunder simply redoubles ths hemorrhage Violent bleeding from s ent on the fsco may be temporarily held In eherk by making s strong pressure’ over ths pulsating facial artery where that vessel comes tip from the nerk ami turna orcr the rim of the jaw at a point about one inch in front of tho angle of the jaw. Indeed, the us* of firm pressure by the finger or other means over almost any bleeding point may prove effeetive In con trolling hemorrhage till the doctor arrives The classic advice to apply eobwebs •* s hemostatic is not worth mnch In this day of exemplary housekeeping because cobwebs are not always at hand. A discussion of hemorrhage would not be complete without warning against the hasty use nf rourt plaster or other means of hastily waling entail ruts. A bur amount of hemor rhage will not hurt anything and .may prevent infection; while the closure of s cut insy give rise to grave trouble from infcetlon. Most difficult of all forms of hemorrhage to control Is the deep-seated hemorrhage In the lungs or other internal organs, like the stomach or intestines. Physicians use three drugs for these cases—«*rgot, suprarenal ex tract and opium. The first two art by con stringing the tissues, the last by diminishing the blood pressure irs a result of quieting the Imart action. In emergencie#, when a physl cisn ran not he brought quickly, copious doses of paregoric may do some*good. It is a curious fad that a man may liter ally bleed to death under the Influence of tar tain drugs—nitroglycerine, for instance— without losing a drop of blood. Those drugs dilate ail the minute perhipernl blood vessels so suddenly that the heart and larger vessels are practically emptied. It is a pity that tire old time practice of bleeding for therapeutic purposes' has given way to an absolute neglect of this valuable measure. For apoplexy, ( uremia or sudden dilatation of the heart there is no moro useful remedy, perhaps, than ropiouH bleeding. Yet so extreme are the fashions In medicine that it Is a curiosity nowadays 1o see a pativut bled—except financially, of course. Army-Navy Orders And.

WHY DO NOT THE COMMON SCHOOL TEACHERS ORGANIZE? To the Editor of The Georgian. Sir: The preacher, the lawyer, the doc- tor, and every form of business In organ ized. The state colleges aro organized. The denominational college# and high schools are organized. All these are accomplishing gre.it thing#. Just think what Agnes Scott did by being organized! The Methodists only recently raised a large sum for Emory. Tho Baptist* raised a very large auni for their high school# thi# year. The congres sional agricultural schools only this fait called for more money, nnd received It. All this ha* been accomplished because they were organised and pulled together. When ever the state colleges want an appropria tion they send a representative to press their cause before the Georgia law-makers. You never see the paper* full of cries from the college professors for more money. Why don’t you? Because they are organ ized nnd get what they want. If the above-mentioned Institutions are organized, should not tho common school teacher organize? “Yes!” I hear from every where, especially from tho teachers. Well, why don’t we organize? The answer Is. •‘What’s everybody’s business is nobody’#,” so the matter get# no attention, only a iittle while during the meeting of the legislature— the common school appropriation Is dis cussed, but not settled, for the organized colleges nnd schools consume nil tho time. Sonin one gays, “So much Is appropriated"— but that 1# not pfild promptly; neither Is It enough. The common school teacher should receive ns much an n town school or college teacher. Why? Because liefims the greatest nml most responsible .position of them all. Again, the country schools do not Inst long enough to authorize a good teacher to re main In them, so when n man can do suc cessful work In the country he I# forced to seek for n better paying position. Now, let us who are handling tho common schools put fortli nn effort nnd organize so that wo will have better schools in tho rural district.*. Geutiemen, tho child In the country needs education Just the same n* tho town children, nnd even more so. for l#‘lt not said that the business world, tho church, the government nnd all the activities of life depend on the farmer to send their boys nnd girls to carry on their work? Ask the college professor, the mer- > chant, the doctor, the lawyer and the prefieber where he was reared. The nn- / swer comes, “In the country.” Wo appeal to all'these bodies of organized people to support tho common mcIiooI teach er. We also caH upon the pro##, both dally and weekly. In each county, to send this call along tho lino so thnt every teacher of Georgia cap hear. I*et the county school commissioner# talk it to their teachers— uot about teachers' Institute*, but teachers organization, something In which they will have a say so. Above all, let the state school commissioner rally to our support. Wc also Implore the colleges to remember the cause, for they are greatly dependeut upon our success for their success. Can't you see, gentlemen, if the common gchooF teachers are organized what the whole state of Georgia would dcrUo from the cotiuty school? We would have better business men, higher stsmlnVd of living In the country, n better educated ministry, better doctor*, lawyers, and farmer#. Every thing Is dependent upon the success of tho common school, nnd Its success depend* upon the organized effort# of the teachers. The teacher will then be able to let the needs of the country school be known; n# It I#, nobody In particular attends to their needs. The teacher wJH then be bettor paid nnd much higher educated In the common school. Then so ninny of these young girls will cease to flock to the school room until they nre fully prepared to teach. Then, another thing which is being dis cussed so much, thnt I* compulsory educa tion, can be carried to success—and not until the teachers nrc organized. That may seem a hard statement, but It is true. Iwvi you now have no common school to force the child to enter. Georgia doc# not need compulsory education, but better teacher# nnd longer term# of schools, and nothing but more money will get them, and nothing will get more money until the teachers or ganize. •rery county organize Into a I’ounty orgnu'zatlon nt once, nml next spring, about April, we will organize a state organization. 1 will be glnd .to correspond with any teacher In regard to this organization.
