A Head that throbs, jttiins and aches, or feels heavy, stuf fy, dull or dizzy, is a poor head to do business with. It irritates the temper, up sets the stomach, interferes with digestion and wears out the braid and nerves. Make the nerves strong, the brain clear and your head will be right. “ Years of headache made me nerv ous, irritable and unfit for business; hut when 1 be;,an taking Dr. Miles’ Irvine I found permanent relief. Nothing equals it for overworked nerves, at lies, or head troubles of any kind.” Thus. W. Frame, Davis, Ind. Ter. m. Df.

BREAD SCATTERED On the Waters Will he Oathered After Many Days. (Correspondence of The Ledger.) Blacksburg, Nov. 14.—I will trouble you with another article to show that the Scripture is correct when it teaches us that bread scat tered on tiie waters shall be gathered after many days. In writing of A. M. Latham’s wheat crop you will see that be be gan to prepare for it in 1855. He sowed with the wheat clover and timothy grass seed from which he got a very liberal crop of hay in the full of 1855. And in the year follow ing had the lot to run in grass, clover and timothy, from which he got the largest amount of line hay 1 ever have seen taken off the same amount of land. In 1857 he planted the lot in corn, with a spoonful of guano to the hill, and with thorough cultivation, he gathered seventy bushels to the acre. In 1S5S he had it sown in oats, and it was the finest lot of oats that I can recollect of ever seeing. In 185‘J he planted it in cotton, and there was a falling off in profit. The war coming on in ISfll I lost sight of it until 1870. Fred Latham had succeeded his brother at the iron works, as agent, and turned his attention to cotton planting. Ho hired a man and his four-horse team of mules and attached the big Scotch plow to the fore wheels of a wagon ; one man to drive, another to hold the plow and a large and strong mule with a bull- tongue plowing in the furrow after the plow. He had the lot plowed, then bedded, and with a liberal quantity of guano, planted in cotton. It will be seen by looking back that it was fifteen years after A. M. Latham began his improvement on the lot, and the labor and expense that he applied to the lot in 1855 were still paying, tor Fred gathered 3.000 pounds of seed cotton off of some acres of the improved land; so he was getting the company’s money back that bis brother had fed to the land fifteen years before, and was therefore gathering the broad scat tered on the waters after many days. He was carrying out the principle or advice that the old Scotch farmer gave to a young farmer that had leased a farm in his neighborhood. When asked for advice how to man age the place that others had been unable to make a living on. the old man having been very successful in making a fortune by hard labor and economy, as well as paying heavy rent begun by naming over the differ ent fields and the crop that should be planted to each field. He said that the crops should be changed yearly and that the same crop should not be planted two years in succes sion in anyone field. When through with the farming advice the old man said to his young friend: ”Be sure not to go or get in debt, but if obliged- to get in debt, let it be for manure.” That was before the guano banks were discovered by Sea ward. So that shows that it will pay the farmer bettor to make homespun manure than to waste time and cot ton on commercial fertilizers; al though it will not make quire as big a show as hauling Hour and guano from town and cotton back to pay for them. No more at present. w. L. L. DEATH OF MISS BURGESS. Mlie Dieii at Her Home Moiitiay Morolng; Near Granny I'ond. (Correspondence of The Ledger ) Grassy Pond, Nov. 20.—Owing to the fair weathpr farmers aro through gathering their crops and are ready to prepare their winter wood. Miss Dora Whitlock, an accom plished lady and teacher of Jones* villo, has accepted the school at Grassy Fond and began teaching there last Monday. Our community was pained last Monday on hearing that Miss Mamie Burgess had passed away. 8he was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Burgess, and in her twenty-first year. She had been sick only about two weeks when she died. During her illness she would speak of loved ones that had gone before. Mamie was a kind hearted girl and proved true to her family and mutes. She was a member of the Providence Baptist church, to which she always liked to go. In her last hours her face shone bright as if she was not afraid to go, and seemed to say ‘‘it is well with my soul.” In spite of all that loving hands and skilled physicians could do, the One that knows best, and does all things well, called her home and she crossed the river about one o’clock Monday morning. Around the bedside stood her family and friends doing all they could to keep her here on earth longer, but the Death Angel touched the golden strings that bound her to life and bade her cross over. Her remains were interred at Cor inth cemetery in the presence of many friends and relatives who had gathered to pay their last respects to the loved one. We deeply sympa thize with the family in their loss, and trust they may rest assured that she is at peace in Zion. j g. i\ To OlMerve TIiMokMgLing.

We take the following from Wed nesday’s issue of tbe Carolina Spar tan, and reprint it for the benefit of our farmer readers in Cherokee coun ty, feeling sure that it will be read with intre«t by some, if not all of them who see it: ‘‘The cotton is nearly all picked out. The small grain will generally be sown by December 1, provided the farmers are energetic. A few sug gestions may by pertinent just at this season. Your presence is not necessary at the cross roads store two or three times a week. The trains will whirl by the railway station on time or off time, even if you do not go out to see them once a month. The towns and cotton mdls will get on about as well as usual without a daily or weekly visit from you. The farmer, who has left his im plements where he finished plowing in wheat, and whose harness are in such a condition that it is hardly safe to ride behind a team, and whose rickety old wagon will hardly hold up a half load, is in a bad way. He ought to go at something else. The one who never plows a furrow from the first of August to the middle of February will soon ruin any land he skims over. The best farmers will be ready to begin the work of 1901 about the first day of December. That will give them a month’s advantage. What is to bo done and in what order should the work come? Different conditions will demand different orders of busi ness. But generally the home, the dwelling house, should be made com fortable. An abundance of good wood and especially dry stove wood, should be prepared. The kitchen or cook room should be one of the most comfortable rooms on the place. Some sort of shelter should be pro vided for wood, particularly stove wood. After the house the stables will demand attention. These should be a protection against cold and rain, but with ventilation also. Animals should be fed and watered regularly. They demand and deserve as much attention when not at work as when working. A good clean tiough shoud he provided and a forage box Then stables and lots should be well covered with pine needles or forest leaves. Lot fences, doors and gates should all be put in good condition. Harness and tools should ali be re paired at once so there will be no de lay in hitching up a team when wanted. Now for the field work. If a far mer is able to use two horses he should begin his preparation of land the first fair spell in December. If he has heavy stubble to turn, use a good two-horse turn plow. If not, use the two-horse subsoiler, or any system of suhsoiling that is best. Let that work go on with the team every fair day until every foot of land to he planted in a hood crop is pre pared. The other hand or hands could be cutting wood, repairing pasture fen ces, cutting weeds and briers on branch banks, strengthening weak places in terraces, taking up stumps, piling up stones that are in the way and clearing any land that is to be cleared. The farmer that puts in no time at his work till about the first of March will certainly have an easy time in the gathering season. This is the time also for putting out fruit trees and preparing the front yard so that the women folk may have a few flowers. These suggestions are made to men who know as much about what they ought to do as this writer knows, but this is written to stir up their minds and put them to executing the plans they have.* There is a sort of revival starting amongst the farmers of the Fiedmont. They are going to do better than heretofore, and there is certainly a great need of improvement. The best missionary is the one who will take common land and by deep prep aration and thorough pulverization demonstrate to his neighbors that such land will stand both wet and dry weather and make double the yield that it formerly made when plowed about three inches deep. If this little exhortation starts only a dozen farmers to tt inking and work ing it will not be in vain.” (jiiestlon Answered. Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers’ and grandmothers’ never thought of using anything else for Indigestion or Bil iousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration, Heart Failure, etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fer mentation of undigested food, regu late the action of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system, and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches.

The regular prices will prevail. The Danville Va. f Daily Register says: The Herald Square Opera Company played ‘‘Billee Taylor” to a” im mensely pleased audience last night at the Academy. Every leading character is taken by thoroughly qual ified and experienced oersons who would shine in any company, while tbe chorus is strong, well balanced, and tbe voices excellent, tbe girls young, pretty and attractive grace ful in form and stage manner. The applause was a rapid fire production by tbe audience forming a contin uous accompaniment. The comedy in the hands of Tom Whyte and Thos. Callahan was great and kept the audience in one roar of laughter. We understand they have booked a re turn date after Christmas. The Minstrels Last Night.

Little Hoy Killed b> Falling Tree, Monday afternoon Mr. James Mar tin, of White Plains, with his two little boys, went a short distance from his house to cut down a tree for wood. While ;he was cutting the children were near him, but as he thought, out of dangar. As the tree began to fall in an opposite direction to which he expected he called to the children to run out of the way, but, confused, the older boy ran directly under the tree and was instantly killed, the back portion of his skull being crush ed and his neck broken. This little boy was five years old, almost to an hour, when be was kiled. The burial took place at White Plains church Wednesday, attended by quite a number of sympathizing friends.

I suppose there are but few Ameri can boys who have not followed with interest the events of the war between Spain and the United States and re joiced in the victory of the American army and navy and in tbe expansion of her territory; how they exulted in the victory of Admiral Dewey at Manila and the destruction of Cer- veras fleet at Santiago. But much depends on the point of view in tbe Royal Palace at Madrid. There lives a boy there thirteen years old last May to whom this last year has been one of bitter sorrow and humili ation. I hope all American boys are interested in the history of their country and have followed with pride the story of the thirteen colonies and of the United States. The boy king of Spain has been carefully educated. Doubtless he has studied with pride the past history of his country and feels himself the heir of Ferdinand and Emperor of Germany and of Phillip II, under whom Spaniards ex tended their dominion over the new world, from which their Galleons brought untold treasure to Spain, today the last of these great posses sions has passed from him. We have heard the stories of mis-governmeut, cruelty and oppression which caused the colonies of Spain to revolt from her, but as we read Spanish history wo cannot feel that the boy king or his gentle mother is responsible for them. Alfonso Nil was chosen king of Spain when only seventeen. After the death of his first wife, Mercedes, he married the young Arjfij Duchess, Mary Christina, niece of the Em peror of Austria, he tried to rule Spain justly and wisely but died after a reign of only eleven years and Mary Christina was appointed Regent of the kingdom. She has shown her self worthy of her Royal Palace. Ep. E. Edwards. DO YOU GET UP WITH A LAME BACK ? Kidney Trouble Hakes You Hiserable.
