VOL IX K Little Girl’s Escape. i A PALE, THIN GIRL BECOMES ROSY AND PLUMP. St. Vitus’ nance Cheeked—A Loving lliiughtrr Saved. (Mwn the Kanrnt City, Mo., Journal.) The following pomm-t an interest to the Jourwil an<! its readers, because the case is of great talue from a medical point of view, and further because it is sworn to and its truth absolutely proven. The case described is that of the (laughter of L. L. Harbor of Kdgerton, Kan., who being duly sworn on oath tieposen and says: During the spring of the current year, 1893, my daughter Bertie, aged 13 years, bo* came afflicted with a nervous disease which grew upon her to such an extent, that it se riously interfered with her studies, and aroused the gravest fears that it would de velop into St. Vitus’ dunce. My daughter became so nervous that she would drop her knife and fork while eating, and would at times be seized with nervous twitchings which excited the alarm of myself and wife. About this time my wife read in a news paper of a wonderful cure of the same disease effected by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. So strongly was I impressed with the facts set forth in the testimonial that I wrote to ascertain the authenticity of the case. Receiving a reply which completely satisfied I gent for a box of the pills. I'rom th i very first dose a marked im» provement in my daughter's condition was noticed. She had become thin and exces sively pale, as is common to sufferers from nervous diseases, and her weight had de rr,.1 c < i u " H Lirming extent. After a carituLaml thorough trial of the pills,she not only began f'i grow less nervous but also be gan to gain flesh. It is needless to t'ty that I was both sur prised and delighted’ with the wonderful change brought about by the first box of the pills. She is a new girl, and all the symp toms of hi r disease have disappeared. Dr. William’’ Pink Pills have certainly wrought a wonderful an 1 complete cure, and 1 can say nothing too good in their favor. But now she is away on a visit, something she would not have thought of being able to do three months ago. I'rom being shrinking, morbid and timid she has become a strong, healthy girl with no appearance of ever having been afflicted with any nervous trou bles. The pills have done wonders, and I take great pleasure in recommending them to all who arc afflicted with a similar disease. (Signed) L. L. BAItBOR.

It Is Econimical, After All, if Considered Properly. One thousand dollars a shot is rather expensive shooting, but wh'n you come to figure it out j you will find that it is u< t quite as much in proportion as SIOO a shot under certain conditions. The old smooth bore cannon, short in barrel and short in the breach, had I to be trained with the greatest pa | tience and care on the object aimed ! at, and if the 100 pound ball didn’t land exactly where it was intended it did very little harm. \\ itli the big pneumatic gun at Sandy Hook it is impossible to make a miss. You just touch her off at SI,OOC per touch, and if the projectile drops svithin one-sixth of a mile of where it was intended to drop there is immediate and se ■’ious trouble and in all probability no necessity for the expenditure of another dollar'on that particular targe'. It costs more to fire the big Krupp gun than it does our dy nanito gun, but the execution bears no comparison. Ono hun dred galling guns, fired at short intervals for one hour, would cost sl/100. Even if the object shot at was within range the shooting would not beone-tenth as affective as the shooting of the Sandy Hook terror. —New York Mail and Ex press. During the winter of 1893, F.

I The Body of Mrs. William John son, of Rome, Disinterred- The body of Mrs. William John son, who died in the year 1855, was disinterred a few weeks ago at Rome, and she looked as fresh and natural as if her demise had-_ oc curred only the day before. At the time of her death, forty one years ago, what was known as the old cemetery, in the upper part of Rome, was becoming very much crowded, and the Sheibly cemetery, the other side of the North Rome depot, was in use. It was here that she was first bu ried in a metallic casket. During the war the casket con taining the body of Mrs. Johnson was removed to the old cemetery in the northern part of the city, where it has remained ever since. Mrs. Johnson left an infant son at the time of her death, now Mr. Hal Johnson, a popular citizen of Calhoun. She was a sister of Mrs. Spullock and Col. Mark Hardin, clerk of the house of representa tives, and an aunt of Recorder Spullock, of Rome. Her son went to Rome several , weeks ago from Calhoun, and with relatives there began trying to lo cate the grave of his mother. He did not succeed at first, and hands wore put to work digging and soon found the casket. It was in good condition, and the lid was removed. Then, looking through the glass cover, they beheld a sight that struck them with wonder. Every feature was natural, and she seem ed to have just fallen asleep. There was no petrifaction or mum-1 unification, no shrinkage of flesh, but she appeared natural as life. Her son, who svas an infant when she died, had no reccollec tions as to her appearance, and as ho gt’zed upon the face of his mother no doubt he was profound ly stirred. The casket ivas reinterred and the grave made over to bo kept in the best condition.—Cartersville News. An Affidavit.

The J Spanish government must give ■ them guns and see to it that they are landed upon some part of the territory of the United States- Wo have tried to think upon what’part of our territory it would be safest for them to land. We have a long coast line, both up m the Atlantic and the Pacific, and there are plen ty of good landing places between Eastport and Seattle. There is ! Philadelphia, a quiet kind of place ' I when John Wanamaker is not in I ! his store. There is South Caro'ina, ' and we may remark that Tillman 'is going to Colarado. There is i Texas, an inviting spt?t, not so un healthy as Cuba in the wet season. ; Let the Catalans look over a map of the United States. We can only warn them not to land upon Coney Island, and we think it would be j unadvieable for them to land any where near New York; for they wou d surely be caught and put up on exhibition among the other at* tractions at Barnum & Bailey’s great American and unparalleled circus. Crowds of people svho do : not care a cent for zebras, elephants, ’ or other quadrupeds, would rush there to see the 12,000 Catalans.— New York Sun.

Question. —Is it injurious to corn to plow deep the first tiine ? I have not been able to prepare my land as thor oughly as I would like, and I want your advice as to which would be best; to break it out thoroughly the first time, or give it entire surface culture ? Answer.—ls you will examine the roots of very young corn you will find that they extend out a considerable dis tance very near the surface. This hor izontal growth will be found to con tinue for a considerable distance before they begin to sink deeper into the soil. Therefore deep plowing at first must necessarily cut some of the small roots, but if the land has been poorly prepared, or is of the stiff quality, which has been packed by heavy rains after preparation, we should certainly take the risk of deep plowing the first time. The root pruning is certainly less injurious at that period than later on. In doing this work be careful not to throw too much dirt to the young corn. The old plan of “hilling up the corn,’’ causes it to throw out a set of roots prematurely. A little soil sifted in at each successive -working is desirable and beneficial; anything more than that is injurious.—State Ag ricultural Department. Fertilizing Sweet Potatoes. Question.—l desire to know the best ■ fertilizer for sweet potatoes, and how much to apply per acre. Answer.—lt has been found that sweet potatoes require a good deal of ni trogen and potash, and not as much phosphoric acid as was once thought to be necessary. A good mixture would be 200 pounds acid phosphate, 300 pounds cottonseed meal and 500 pounds kainit. The amount to be used to the acre de pends upon the character of the land upon which you wish to apply it. On I well prepared land, full of humus or ' vegetable matter, 1,000 pounds of-the I above mixture could be used with profit. ; On lands only moderately supplied with j humus, a much less quantity should be I used, and on thin land devoid of humus 200 pounds of the above mixture would be ample.—State Agricultural Depart ment.
