THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, MARCH 9--10 No Children admitted under 19 years of age* unless accompanied by Parents . i ; Nobody's Business j Written tmr The Chronicle by 0*>a i MiUw, Copyright, 1928, HOW TO CURE INSOMNIA 1 am afflicted with tusoinnia aa well uh a few other things, but in souinla Is my Jonah. I talked about thla to my doctor the other day. Ho told mo how to go to bleep without any trouble, and I tried It that night He prescribed the following remedy, which, he said, always worked: 1?Und ress 2? Go to bed 3?ltelax 4? 'Don't think of anything r> Sail off into space 6?Keep on Hailing 7?4Jet up at 7:30 the next morning. Well, I undressed, as usual, and put on my night-things. I crawled In bod and almost froze to death before I could get the cover fixed. Then I felt a shuck or a cob or something In the mattress, and every time 1 turned over, I felt two more bumps. This mattress had always been considered good as the best . . . It was a Beauty-Sleep inner-spring overstuffed thing. ^ Before I got relaxed, I commenced to worry about ... I possibly left the water running in the bath-room but I hadn't. Then I recalled that I had not turned down the theromstat in the hall, but I had. Before I got warm again, after doing the things that had already been done, the telej phone rang. She told me it was the wrong number. I stretched out good, loosened up all Bay Je-l?cS, asd began to try to sail away into space, Just like the doctor said. I sailed a little in about 45 minutes, but before I know It, I hit a cloud that looked like the man who owed me $45, and hadn't paid a cent on his account in 6 months. Then proceeded to analyze 150 more accounts that folks owed me, and all of them seemed bad. I kept on sailing around. I realized that my tenants were cutting too much of my woodland down. I happened to think of a delinquent tax notice that I got that day. I realized that i nau no uauuiuoto my \,?r, and the thermometer was around 28. I thought of every unsatisfactory thing in the world, and as I couldn't go to .sleep that way, I oozed on back to earth, got up and took a sleeping pill, and was soon wrapped in the arms of Morpheus. HOW WE 8PEND ALL OF OUR TIME AND MONEY Our firm, meaning the one that this so-called writer is afflicted with, which is, by the way, a place where merchandise is bought for cash (nearly) and sold on credit (mostly,) has figured out a plan for continuing in business till something else happens ?and here it is: We will work for the state, in order that our st^te taxes might be offset, during the months of January, February and March. We will devote April, May and Juno to taking care of what our city and school district demands of us. We will work for the federal government during July and August: we don't pay Uncle Sam any taxes much, but we are busy for 2 months making out returns and dodging inspectors and would-be collectors. (Eight months gone.) By applying ourselves steadfastly and Intelligently, we can possibly settle^with the Insurance companies for policies covering our stock against tire loss, our trucks and cars against personal property damage and running into or over somebody?during the months of September and October. (We will have to do better than we have been doing if we make enough during those 2 months to meet our insurance demands as listed ?ten months gone.) We will be under the employ of the Salvation Army and the T. B. seal drive and the community chest push and our own church solicitations, as Well as the solicitations of the churches of my dear brethren, the pan-handlers, the "ad" getters for our name on book-backs and programs general- I ly, water and light bills, headache ' pills, taxes on gas and oil, and many other things, too numerous to mention?during the months of November and December. Kind friends, If any, you will observe that our entire 12 months have been taken up working for other folks. Not a minute has been used for the benefit and welfare of ourselves and family. We will use free air for breathing purposes, bujr a little meat here and a little bread there on credit, and try to borrow a few rags from folks more gainfully employed?those that have Jobs and own nothing and employ nobody, and maybe, by diligent effort and the prayers of our loved ones (both of them), we will get by some way. We hope the day will come when an individual will bar# a chance to gat a dollar that , ?c.,. > ? r Ax-...

"Because of mixing at gin and i" field, and because of natural degeneration, any highly-bred cotton deteriorates in quality after 2 or 2 years of farm production.. Hence, CONSTANT RENEWAL of seed stock from breeders must be practiced if quality is to be maintained."?Circular No. 1 (>2, Clemson Agricultural College, May, 1988. We urge all cotton growers to secure and plant this year enough pedigreed seed to produce their planting seed for next year. One sack of pedigreed seed, eacih year, from a reliable breeder is a very good investment. This plan pays dividends in better staple and higher prices for your cotton. Kershaw County Cotton Buyers F.
