Mr. Editor: If you will give
me space in your paper 1 will
give the readers a few lines from
the Lone Star State.
Crops in this section are fairly
good; cotton is fine, though the
corn crop will be short. We have
plenty of roasting ears now and
will have cotton blooms in a few
days. Part of the state of Tefc,
as is so dry that they wont maka
anything while other parts have
fine crops. I think we will make
corn enough to do us in this
section. This is a good farming
country and it don’t take but
little rain to make a crop,
came here last September anil
there has been but little rain
since. The ground has not been
too wet to plow but twice since
I have been here. I see it rains
iu Georgia this year, so the farm
era can tdo but little in the
fields. We will be done our crops
in a few days and then we will
begin cutting and baling our hay
We bale all of our hay out here.
We don't pull any fodder—the |
wind blows it all off.
Good luck to The News and its

THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 1909.
A HEROIC STRUGGLE.
The Fight For Life of the Crew of c
Wrecked Whaler.
The story of the crew of a whal
ing essel wrecked of! Cape Parry
in a drifting fog is given in Mr. A.
11. Harrison’s book, “In Search of
a Polar Continent.” The Alexan
der at the time was steaming at full
speed, and when first it struck the
crew, not seeing anything in front
sd them, thought they had collided
with a piece of drifting ice. But
on striking again the vessel imme
diately filled with water, so they
hardly had time to rush to the
boats, which they had great diffi
culty in lowering.
It was then that Captain Tilton
nearly lost his life. He was the last
man to leave the ship, and just as
the boats were being pushed off he
jumped from the vessel, but missed
the stern of the boat and fell into
the sea. Luckily, however, he man
aged to catch a rope that was
thrown to him, but it was not with
out difficulty that he was pulled
into the boat when he was dragged
alongside.
The mist was so dense that they
had no idea of their locality, but on
reaching the shore they saw the
rocky headland of Cape Parry loom
ing over them, and then they knew
that they had at least 400 miles to
travel before regaining -Herschel
island, this, too, along a barren and
deserted coast line in open boats
and probably in a raging sea.
This wreck occurred on Aug. 16,
yet on Aug. 26 they arrived at Her
schel island, every one of them
strong and well and no whit the
worse for his adventure. They
made the whole journey through
rough seas and through gales of
wind. Every stitch on their backs
was constantly drenched.
Os supplies they carried only that
scanty portion which a whaleboat
always has on hand for an emergen
cy. Nor are the emergencies con
templated of such duration.
Every now and then they had to
put ashore to find fresh water and
to snatch a few winks of sleep, and
I can answer for it that putting
ashore here is no easy matter, for
there are many miles of coast line
along which it is almost impossible
to find a place for landing in a
strong wind.
These men doggedly held on
their course, crossing two large
bays, Franklin bay and Liverpool
bay, until at last they reached the
Mackenzie delta, and, keeping well
to seaward of this, they arrived in
a storm which prevented ships from
putting to sea.
They had made a fino, heroic ef
fort. It had been a case of do or
die with all of them, and they had
carried on a desperate and unceas
ing struggle and had accomplished
an average daily journey of forty
miles in an open boat.
John, Thomas, Richard, Etc.
The popularity of John is be
lieved to be due to the supposed
suitability in baptism of the Bap
tist’s name, just as Jordan was a
name usually given to children who
were baptized in water brought
from Palestine by pilgrims or cru
saders. The prevalence of William
is due to William the Conqueror,
that of Robert to sympathy with
the misfortunes of his son. Thomas
came in with the murder of the
great archbishop. The crusading
exploits of Richard I. made the
name popular, while to the adven
tures of the paladins we owe Ro
land, Roger and Reginald. In the
fourteenth century Charles, James
and George are almost unknown.
Charles only became popular after
the execution of Charles 1., and
George came in with the Hanove
rian dynasty.—London Notes and
Queries.
A Feat of Swordsmanship.
Napoleon, it is said, one day met
an .old one armed soldier and asked
him where he lost his arm.
“Sire, at Austerlitz.”
“And were you not decorated ?”
“No, sire.”
“Then here is my own cross for
you. I make you chevalier.”
“Your majesty makes me cheva
lier because I have lost one arm.
What would your majesty have done
had I lost both?” -
“Oh, in that case I should *ave
made you officer of the Legion.”
Whereupon the soldier immedi
ately drew his sword and cut off his
other arm.
One Way He Could Help.
An eastern college graduate ap
plied for work in a Michigan lum
ber camp. He was told to get busy
on one end of a cross saw, the other
end being in charge of an old and
experienced lumberman. At first all
went well, but at the end of the sec
ond day the young man’s strength
began to wane. Suddenly the old
man stopped the saw and spat.
“Sonny,” he said, not unkindly,
don't mind yer tidin' on this saw,\
but if it's jest the same to you I
wish you’d keep yer feet off the
ground. ” —E very body's.

COUNT THE COST
(By Mrs. A. F. Malian)
Ere the rapids of intemperance
Have through habit hurled you
down,
Stop! though at the whirlpool's
entrance,
Leave the current or you’ll:
drown.
When the sparkling curse you re
clasping.
Count the cost of burning brain,
Loss of self-respect and manhood
Think of this before you drain.
Count the cost of staggering
foot stejxs,
How it pains some trusting]
heart,
Think of happy homes now
blighted,
Do not act a coward’s part.
Perhaps somewhere you have a
letter
From your mother’s feeble
hand.
Pleading with you to live better,
And build up a character grand.
Oh, just now send her an answer
That her heart may beat with
j () y;
Tell her that with her’s and
God’s help
Strong drink will never taint
her boy.
Strength will come with each re
f
* b join in a “social glass."
Build a high and moral standard
As the years o-f youth now pass
Are you in the deep glen stand
ing.
While clouds of darkness round
you roll?
Know you not that you re de
stroying
Both your body and your soul '
Then wake if sleeping, rise if
feasting.
This may be an hour of fate.
Stop the drink, for time is fleet
ing
And your next might be too
late.

MEN PAST FIFTY IN DANGER.
Men past middle life have found
comfort and relief in Foley’s Kidney
Remedy, especially for enlarged pros
tate gland, which is very common
among elderly men. L. E. Morris,
Dexter, Ky., writes: “Up to a year
ago my father suffered from kidney
and bladder trouble and several phy
sicians pronounced it enlargement of
the prostate gland and advised an
operation. On account of his age
we were afraid he could not stand
it and I recommended Foley’s Kid
ney Remedy, and the first bottle re
lieved him, and after taking the sec
ond bottle he was no longer troubled
with this complaint.” Sold by all
druggists.

canal and railroad is shown to
be 33,699.
Roughly speaking, it is said,
that the annual importations in
to the United States of coffee,
tea and cocoa amounts to SIOO.-
000.000 a year, three-fourths cos-i

equally divided between cocoa:
and tea.
WESTON, Ocean-to-Ocean Walker,
Said recently: “When you feel
down and out. feel there is no use
living, just take your bad thoughts
with you and walk them off. Be
fore you have walkeft a mile things
will look rosier." Just try it.” Have
you noticed the increase in walking
of late in every community? Many
attribute it to the comfort which Al
len's Foot-Ease, the antiseptic pow
der to be shaken into the shoes,
gives* to the millions now using it.
As Weston has said, “It has real
merit.”
