To the Editor of The State: I notieed in The State of September 20th some one giving his O c"> mode or plan to prevent smut in wheat, which may he all right; but 1 think I have a more sure preventative; in fact, 1 believe it lis infallible, and as the time of j year is nearly here for sowing, J will, with your permission, give my remedy for the benefit of l your many readers. Take three ounces of Milestone I to every bushel of wheat; put one' ! hiiohel of wheat in some vessel ' that will allow stirring, then dis J solve the three ounces of blue- j stone in boiling water (just enough , to wet the wheat ) and pour over j : the wheat; stiring until all is j j thoroughly wet. This must ho repeated for every bushel sowed, unless you have a vessel that will | hold more, but bo sure to use i three ounces bluestone to the bushel. # If this receipt is carefully followed, I will guarantee there will i bo uo smut. I have never seen it j fail, and would not bo afraid to sow wheat taken from smutty wheat, nor to sow on land that had produced smutty wheat the year before. Bachainn L.

What Mopfl Nouraliflu? J4-. Milea* Pain PUIm. The man who rides a hobby, uses egotism for a saddle. Tell nothing to thy friend which thine oneiny may not know. Sin has many tools, hut a lie is the handle which fits them all. A .'ong tongue and a short' memory is a dangerous combination. Hotter speak words of love to ' the living parent than words of praise about the dead. J Children. e Always Bought jNATURE OF Bsa&T AY ITRIIT. NIWVQRKCITY. Limited Muirituony. A go< d joke 1ms leaked out on the ex-justice of the peace of Wells county, Minn., who also happened to be a novspaper man. The story runs that when ho first assumed the "judicial ermine," a warrant of arrest was taken out of his court by a brand-now constable. The expected prisoner was found over in Wells county; but he refused to surrender on the warrant, for the reason that the justice issuing it had no jurisdiction out of his own county, and the constable reported the affair to "hizzonor." The next official act was a marriage ceremony, which was performed in a clawhammer coat, and after invoking the blessings of the Almighty, tho justice concluded: "\nd now I pronounce you man and wife so long as you remain in Wells county, for I ha'nt no jurisdiction outside o' that." Dick Morse's Opinion of the Egg Throwers. "Evangelist" Dick Morse, who was recently egged in Atlarta, is still in t tint city shelling the woods. In a letter to the Charlotte News he says: This will inform you that I am still in the ring without the smell of eggs on inn. Tho dirty devils wiil have to use something worse than eggs to stop nio from telling them of their meanness. A man who will throw eggs is lower down than a dog that will suck them, and I tell them that 1 would rather he a four legged cur that would suck eggs than to he a two legged fice that would throw them. They may get to throwing lead bullets before tho war is over. They never made me flicker in J 801 and they won't in 1898. If I couH stand them then to protect the people's property, I can stand them now to protect them and their children from a worse enemy than tho Yankees. They only wanted to take their property, hut these hellians, the liquor men, want to take them and their children and make them drunk~ <Iivio, JMUJU I y V.IIIIII nuls, thieves, murderers and send thoir souls to hell. I never expect to lot up or surronder while I live, no matter what they do or say. Decatur street would he a disgrace to hell and the lowest down devil in it is a gentleman beside the preacher or church member that votes to license him to carry on his helli^j; business. 1 would rather be a mangy, sheep killing dog than to run and vote with such a gang of low down, dirty devils. All druggist* well Dr. Miles' Nerve Plasters. Life is a journey by night to see the sun rise in the morning. That which the fool does in the end, tho wise man does at the beginning. A doctor may learn to cure by killing; but men never learn to tell the ti utb by lying. Essay on tho Mouth. A hov was compelled by his teacher to write an essay "on the j mouth" for some infraction of the I school descipline, and this is what ho wrote: "Tho mouth is tho front door of the face; it is i the aperture to tho cold storage i of our anatomy Some mouths look l:ke poaches and cream; some look like a hole hi a brick wall to I admit a new door or window. The mouth is tho crimson isle to our liver, it is patriotism's fountain, and tool, and chest for pie. With tout the mouth tliopolitician would 1 !>e a wanderer on the face of the earth, and go down to an unI honored grave. It is the grocer's j friend, the orator's pride, tho | dentist's hope. It puts some men on the rostrum and some in jailIt is temptation's lunch counter vrhon attaehod to a maiden, and tobacco's friend when a man. It is tho home of tho unruly member?tho tonge. Without it married life would bo like a dream, and a dude would lose half of his attraction.''

Mr. Bradlaugh, says the Now York Commercial Advertiser, was once engaged in a discussion with a dissenting minister. Bradlaugh insisted that the minister should always answer a question by a simple "Yes," or "No," without any circumlocution, asserting that every question could be replied to in that manner. The reverend gentleman rose, and in a quiet manner said: "Mr. Bradlaugh, will you nllnw mn t<? ikL- ?i niin?(!nn ?? thoBO terms?'' ,4Certainly,1' said Hradlaugh. t4Then, may J ask, have you given up beating your wife?1' Thin was a poser, for if ho answered by 4Yos'' it would imply that he had previously beaten her, and if by 44No" that he continued to do so. 44When you stopped on that gentleman's foot, Tommio, I hope you apologized!" 440, yes; indeed I did," said Tommio; 44and ho gave mo 10 cents for t?cing such ft good hoy." 4I)id ho! And what did you^do then?" "Stopped on the other and apologized agftin, but it didn't work." Hue kirn'* Arnica Halve.
