I MR. JAMES A. HAWTHORN. In His Youth Cured of a Violent Attack of Heart Disease, is Still Young. Mr. James A. Hawthorn was in town last Saturday, looking as spry as a sixteen year-old. When asked how it was that he held his youthful appearance so long, he said something like this: "In my youthful days I was attacked by a violent disease of the heart, which heart affection is com monly culled love. Through the goodness nf f.hft luicf hnnlor r?P ctrlnlron hnorfc in fJio world, I was promptly and completely cured and brought round all right in my proper mentality. Since then I have had no time to take notice of the passing years, and so it is that old Father Time stopped the clock, and has not chiseled the usual number of furrows in my face. Cu pid shot an arrow into my soul. It came with such force that it went straight through my heart and into the heart of the best woman on earth. The same ar row having bound two hearts together, I applied to a preacher to make our hearts as one. And up to this very hour my wife and I are in aoubt as to which of us the heart belongs." Clemson Extension Work-Article XXVI In reply to criticisms that we some times hear, that Clemson College will not analyze samples of fertilizers unless we first know who manufactured them and what they claimed to contain, I wish to make the following explanation of just . how these samples are drawn and passed " through the office to the chemists who analyze them, and which will show such criticisms are unjust and without any foundation, In fact. The laws on this subject recognize and provide for only two classes of these sam pies,-1st: official samples drawn by in spectors sent out for that purpose, and 2nd: Farmers' or purchasers' samples, sent to the College by the farmer or purchaser when drawn in accordance with laws gov erning this subject. Section 1530 of Statutes of this State, requires the Trustees of Clemson College to send their Official Inspectors to get samples 6f ail commercial fertilizers they find sold, or offered for sale, and send these samples to the College for analysis. For this purpose the State is divided into twelve divisions, regard being had to railroad factories and volume of fertilizer trade. To each of these districts an in spector is sent, instructed to go often to every depot and cross roads where com mercial fertilizers are sold or delivered, and draw samples from each brand. The sample must be taken from at least one tenth of the lot- for instance, if 100 sacks in lot, he must draw from at least ten; if 50 sacks, then from five; if less than ten, from all. These several portions as drawn are placed on a paper or clean board, and after being carefully mixed, a sample bottle of 2 ounces is filled. This bottle is sealed by placing melted wax on the cork, upon which while still warm, is impressed a metallic seal which would show any tampering with the sample. On this bottle is glued a label giving the number, the inspector's name, and the date of the drawing. The inspector now writes on a sheet of paper the same num ber as that on the label and an exact copy or description of every brand or mark found on the sack or package, which must contain the mamifacturers's name and address, the weight and the guaranteed analpsis. All this has been done in the fjresence of a witness who unites with the nspectorinan affidavit that this was a fair and representative sample of the lot, and that it was drawn, sealed and num be red before the signing. This paper containing the description is then wrap ped about the sample bottle and expressed to this office. The descriptive paper is here carefully pasted in large invoice book kept for the purpose, and the sample is.sent oy number only to the chemist. Suppose the number of the sample was 450. We send sample No. 450 to the chem ist with instructions to hunt for the three iDgredients, and with positively no other marks to indicate who made it or what it contained. After its analysis is made, copy of same is sent me by the chemist. This is pasted carefully by the side of the inspector's descript,on, and both are pub lished in a bulletin. Until then, positive ly, the chemists no more know who made tne fertilizer, or what it contained, than a Government mule. I alone have the information, which I am obliged to have, or I could not later publish it for the bene fit of the farmers who buy fertilizers. Can any better method be devised for in suring both to buyer and seller absolute fairness and accuracy, both in the drawing and analyzing of these official samples? (The taking of farmers' samples will be treated of next week.) A Simple Safeguard for Mother* Mrs. D. Gllkeson, 326 Ingles Ave., Youngf town, Ohio, gained wisdom by experience. "My little girl had a severe cola and congbed almost continuously. My sister recommend* ed Foley's Honey and Tar.

Many people never suspect their kid neys. If euffering from a lame, weak or aching back they think that it la.. only a mUHCular weakness; when uri narytrouble sets in they think it wijl soon correct itself. And so it is with aH the other symptoms of kidney dig- - orders. That is just where the danger lies. You must cure these troubles or they may lead to diabetes or Bright's disease. The best remedy to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. It cures all ills which are caused by weak or diseased kidneys. Abbeville people testify to permanent cures. J. C. Black, Main St., Abbeville, S. C'., says : J'l have used Dean's Kidney Pills and must say that I am well pleased with the reaults. I was feeling miserable for some time as the result of backache and pains across my kidneys.
