I got so bad with nervous prostration that I had to glvo up and commence to doctor. I tried our local physicians and one In Jollet, but none gavo me any relief and I thought I was going to die. I becamo despondent and suffered untold agony. I could not eat, sleep nor rest, and It seemod as if I could not exist. At the end nf ?It tnnntkol?. reduced to but a shadow of mysolf, and at last my heart became alToctod and I was truly miserable. I took six or eight bottles of Dr. Miles' Nervine.

His rendition Compared With That of the Southern Farmer ?Are We l.">0 Years Behind J To the Kditor of Th?* S?ate. "The nortli is ir?0 yours ahead ol the south," said a farmer to 1110 in western New York, r fnw clays ago. Thoy plough two and three horses at a time ami plough deep. They rotate in farming ; the same kind of grain is not sown in the same 15old the next year. They huy little or :io guano. They make barnyard manure from their stock. They raise) their o\v i horses (tu a large extent) cattle, hogs and sheep. I hey raise chickens and egge tor the market. Tliey sell milk and butter. They take their surplus ??:n. 4i.. i 11111iv in uu: i:urt.\s?* laciory, con J. vert it into cheese and carry the 'whey' homo for the hogs. A larmor said to mo that ho could not mako money by selling {.'.rain, but ho jmt bis grain into cattle | and got in return butter, chceso and beef . got for a on'I the other day that was not a year! old. Wo torce quick growth bv feeding and earing tor our cattle. This makes the meat rich, tender and juicy." The farms are small. A large farmer is one that plants abwut ! i i-n acres or leu*, Thousands of | the fanners only own 50 or 100 acros of land. This brings the population in touch and near neighbors. Churches and school houses abound and the farmers' children are educated and christianized at home, and each family is protected by the other. The farms make from 75 to 100 hush els of corn to the acre. Wheat, oats, rye, barley, potatoes, etc., in proportion. In western Now York, near Lake Ontario, a great deal of lruit, such as apples, / peaches, pears and plums are grown. The farmers a**e now busy shipping Iliis f to mh] "l. They do not depend on any one crop for money. They plant everything that the land can pro r due.- Most all of them grow vog t.il les,especially cabbage and soldiers or Yankee beans.' '1 hey | make more money on beans thai anything else. Improved inn chinos have taken the place ol man's hands. They need the brains and hands of men to guide them, and the work is done Everybody works. The women do their own cooking and house work, while the men work on the tarm. Nothing is wasted. They cook no more than they can eat Dogs aro few and the pigs and chickons get the crumbs from the table. Time is precious and they know how to utilize every minute, "Make hay while the sun shines,v "Strike while the iron is hot,'' are maxims that must have gotten their origin in tho north. Said a farmer to me : "In the south, you can put off to-day foi to morrow and leave to-day's work undono, because you have plenty of time to do your work in, but hero wo can only work about seven months in the year and spend the balance of the ye.u I - -1 ' ieeuing ana caring lor out stock Wo can't begin to plough until 1 ho last of AI nil uml in I >ece:nbci we liave to house our cattle and horses. That is the reason voi southern people are so poor. Voi are lazy anyway and then you dr not know how to work and save We have to work hard for our living here and we know how t< take care of it. I understand thai it is a disgrace for a white mm to work in the south. Thoy lei the negroes do the work and i white man will not work unles: he is driven to it or compelled 1>\ poverty." I told him that if he lived ii the south he would be as la.:y a. anybody else, and ho would got negroes to work for him too if In could, and besides, he, a Demo crat would treat negroes just 1 ik* southern white pcoplo treat them 'J he houses for man and beasl aro most spacious. In Iho time of harvest, if the weather looks t hroittonithe people ill gc direct from the church to the grainfields and save their crop. Wages aro high lor a good farm hand?$20 and ??2f> a month and hoard. Day hands $1.25 per day and food. The ways of the north are different from those ot the south. The laborer (all k> borers are white) sit at the table with hit* omployor aiul oat with him. A white man in the south loos not eat with his workman, oven though tho servant bo a white man. These northern laborers think they are just, as good as their boss." Negroes cannot thrive in thin part of tho State of New York, and there is .not one within 20 miles of East Kendal or I Tamil ton. Several Germans are settled here and prospering. Their wo men work in tho fields side by side with I hi? mon. All live well and are happy if they can get ])0er to drink now and then. Hut they are good and quiot citizens and are welcomed among the Americans everywhere. The people hero have had haid times tor the last three years, as the wheat has heen selling for 00 cents a bushel. They blame (irover Cleveland for their sutT crings and ho and his administra tion is abused on all aidos. 'B( ruined us and made himself rich. The government that should have been in Washington was moved to Wall street, New York, and run by the money shark,' *uid n farmer. K. Carroll. i Ei-Governor Evans to Marry. The following appeared in th ^ Augusta Chronicle ol Uclobt * 3rd : ! "The engagement of ex Gov John Gary Evans to Alias Einil i Plume ol Connecticut is an j nouncod. The marriage will oc s cur on December 11 and will b a brilliant affair. Miss Plum was one of the most popular pa admired visitors in tho city has 1 winter.
