In the fitful light of the fireplace.
Where the ghostly fdmdffws fall.
The needles flashed, as slow unwound
Soft wool from the snowy ball;
And the old clock in the corner,
With its pendulous, drowsy ’‘tick,’'
Came in a full second behind time.
In the race with the needle's ’’click.*’
“Click, tick, click.
Tick, click, tick”—
Such a queer, merry race,
With the old clock's face,
When grandmother used to knit.
The cat on the ruddy hearthstone
Contentedly purred where she lay.
And lazily blinked at the woolly ball
At the end of the half-hour's play;
But the old clock in the corner
Frowned crossly at such a trick.
For a rollicking cat before bis face
Had made him loose many a “tick."
‘'Tick, click, tick,
Click, tick, click’’—
Such a queer, merry race

Chronic Kh«amatl»>a.
Frrm Iks Industrial Ifsics, Jackson, MfirS,
The subject of this sketch is fifty-six
yean of age, sad actively engaged in farm
ing. When seventeen yo.us old he hurt his
shoulder and a few yean after commenced
to have rheumatic pains la it. Oa taking
a slight cold or the least strain, sometimes
without any apparent cause whatever, tha
trouble would start and he would suffer tha
most excruciating pains.
He suffered for over thirty years, and tha
last decade has suffered so muoh that ha
was unable to do anv work. To this the fre
quent occurrences of dtazy spells were add
ed, making him almost a helpless Invalid.
V
i/'
nt all soars or weathss.
Re triad the best physicians but without
being benefited and bms used several specific
rheumatic cures, but was not helped. About
one year and six months ago he read la this
paper ot a case somewhat similar to his
which was cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills and concluded to try this remedy.
After taking the first box he felt some
what better, and after using three boxes,
tha pains entirely disappeared, the dizzi
ness left him and ha has now for over at
year been entirely free from all bis former
trouble aud enjoys better health than ha
has had since his boyhood.
He Is loud In his praises ot Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills for Pale People and will gladly
corroborate the above statements. His post-
office address is Lorenzo Neeley. Horton,
Jackson Oonnty, Michigan.

Diversifying Crops.

suggestive: “Three successive failures
of the tobacco crop, a long time ago,
made Kentucky the blue-grass country,
and the taadiug blood stock region of
America. The blight of frost which de
stroyed all of Florida’s new orsnges iu
1894 and killed many of the grand old
trees, turned theattentioa of thousands
of her land-owners to tobacco, aud she
is rapidly winning a place among the
largest and best producers on tbe conti
nent. These gladsome outcomes of
’calamity’ almost incline one to wish
that old Dame Nature would apply the
goad to onr people, as farmers travel
well-beaten paths aud seldom revolu
tionize their industries or reinforce
them, dxcept under a stress of necea-
•ity.
“Iowa a few years ago seemed enter
ing ni>on an area of decadence, incident
to the universality of wheat culture
under conditions of failing sod and
steadily declining prices. With dash
ing and able leadership she struck out
on a new trial and made dairying her
chief industry, aud the result has been
the dawning of a new era of prosperity
and the restoration of fertility to her
wheat-worn fields. ”
PERSONAL.
Why lc* Is Mora Slippery Than Class.
Ice has the property—peculiar to
bodies which expand on freezing—of
liquefying under pressure and solidify
ing again when the pressure has been
removed. Consequently the weight of
any body moving upon a sheet of ice
causes the formation of a thin layer of
water which separates It from the ice,
and thus, by reducing the friction to a
minimum, enables it to move smoothly
over the surface—1. makes the ice
more ‘‘8lippery. ,, On glass, on the
contrary, this liquid medium Is want
ing. so that the two solid and unyield
ing bodies come Into actual physical
cantact, causing a friction which, in
spite of the smoothness of the glass,
considerably retards Hie motion of the
body. If two smooth sheets of glass
be taken and a few drops of water
sprinkled over the one and the-other
placed above tt, a tfcim layer of water
will be formed, and until this layer haa
been pressed out the upper glass will
move on the other as smoothly as If on
ice. This peculiar property of ice Is
due to the effect of pressure in lower
ing the freezing point of water, so that
whenever ice Is subjected to great pres
sure it partially melts.

JACKSON LIMBLESS COTTON.

Committee Report of the Interstate Cotton
Grower*’ Association en the Jaekaoa
African Limbless Cotton, That Met
la Atlanta, Oa., Dee. 14. 1897.
We, the undersigned Committee, appointed
by the Interstate Cotton Growers’ Association,
held In Atlanta, Ga., December 14th, 1897, to
investigate and report on the Jackson Limbless
Cotton, beg Isav# to submit the following report:
After a thorough and careful examination and
lavestlgaUon made of the cotton la the field,
which we visited la person, and carefully look! uk
Into the matter, we unheattaUngly pronounce tt
the best variety of cotton ever grown In the
South. From what the Committee learned from a
conversation with Hr. Jackson, It aeems that
the cotton, with careful cultivation, will yield
three bales per a£r* easily, and the evidence
of such fact haa presented itself to us after said
Investigation. The cotton Itself is absolutely
without limbs, the boll* maturlug on little
prongs two or three Inches long, known as “fruit
spur,” with no other llmbKtherebetng from two
to five bolls on each spur. The stalks In the field,
examined by us, are from four to ten feet tall,
according to the fertility of the soil, aa fruited
from the ground up. W« ffiundon a great many
stalks, bolls which contain five and six pods,
which we consider very unusual, the size of the
bolls bell,:- very fine average; the lint and staple
being fine and silky, an average of one to < ne
and a half Inches It Is theoplnton of your Com
mittee that no cotton of this variety has ever
been grown tn the South before, and ts of supe
rior quality to anything we have ever seo’.-.
grown. The land upon which the cotton examln
ed was crown, ts ordinary red gravel'y uplaud
well manured. Wa.l*.CALHOUN.Chalrman,Ga.
