"For almost four years I had a sore on my leg," says Mrs. Olive Hurd of Madison, N. H., "and this spring a doctor healed it up. I felt fine for about a month but had to be on my feet a good deal and above my knee came a swelling as big as my fist. It hung down and was as red as if it had been blistered and so sore that I could hardly get around. The cords of my leg seemed to be stiff and the pain was so bad at times that it made me faint. One of the neighbors told me about Sloan's Liniment so I got a bottle and put some right on. Next morning I could walk ever so much better and I kept right on using the Linimentnight ana morning. It took down all the swelling, and the redness and soreness have gone too. I shall never be without Sloan's Linimet in the house again and will recommend it to all suffering friends."

The State says the farmers of S >ulh Carolina are becoming more progressive each year. This is apparent from the growth of the privilege tax receipts. On each ton of fertilizers a tix of 25 cents is paid. The first year that this fertilizer rax was required the sales were 213,000, la9t. year the siles had increased 10 160,000 tons. But ali records have been broken in the sales of 1900. l*p to May 0 the receipts for this year have been $169,554, against $151,061 for the same time last year; an increase of $18,493, or 73.972 tons. The receipts so far for this year are within $2,680 of the total for last year, and if the business for the remainder of this year is as tjood as for the same remainder of 1908 (when $21,273 had been received), the total f?r 1909 would be$169,~>53.<87, alieady received, plus the $21,273 estimated, or $190,826.87.

Book learning, strictly speaking?that is, learning solely from books?leads one into many a hole. In "The Balkan Trail" Frederick Moore tells the story of an Italian official of the Ottoman bank who had taught himself English and was enraptured at the chance to practice it on English people. It was with much pride that he addressed us at supper, but we did not recognize the language he spoke and expressed in French our unfortunate ignorance of foreign tongues. : "That is your own tongue." said the Italian, but even of this statement we understood not; a word. I He drew a pencil from his pocket j and on the back of n letter wrote: "I am speaking English." We were astounded. "Perhaps I do not pronounce cor- j recfly." he wrote next. "I have learned | the noble language from books." The hilarious Englishman in our | party gave the unhappy Italian his first real lesson at once. He took the pencil and wrote: "Always pronounce English as it is not spelt. Spell as it is not pronounced." The Action of a Spinet. The spinet instrument was an Improvement upon what was known as the clavichord, the tone of which, although weak, was capable, unlike that of the harpsichord or spinet, of inj crease or decrease, reflecting the finest gradations of the touch of the player. In tills power or expression it was without a rival until the piano was invented. The early history of the clavichord previous to the fifteenth century rests in profound obscurity, but it is said that there is one bearing the date l.">20 having four octaves without the T) sharp and (I sharp notes. The spinet was the invention of the Venetian Spinet ta. The action is unique. The instrument is similar to a small harpsichord. with one string to each note The strings are set in vibration by points of quills elevated on wooden uprights known as jacks, and the depression of the keys causes the points to pass upward, producing a tone similar to that of a harp. Springs arc used to draw tho quills hark info position. T!io keyboard is arranged in :i manner afior t ho present modern piano.
