Secretary Wilson of the department
of Agriculture is in ,
receipt of nearly a hundred let-1
ters from millers and kindredj
interests asking him to refer the
question of bleached flour,which
the department has branded as i |
adulterated,to the referee board i]
of the department which recent- j
ly permitted the use ot benzoate I;
of soda previously condemned j.
by Dr Wiley, and clamored for'
by many of the food packers. To',
all of these letters the secretary ;,
has replied that the matterwould
not be so referred. Great
pressure is being: brought to|
bear, however, and some weeks i
ago the manufacturers of the:
flour-bleaching- apparatus
brought suit in the district courtj
for a mandamus to prevent the
secretary from continuing a distribution
of the pure food <lecis |
ion in which bleached flour is
classed as adulterated food. The j
case has not yet come to trial j
and in the meantime bleached
flour remains under the ban.
Though Congress has declined |
to include,in the appropriations
for the War department, the;
$5W,oou assea lor aenai experiments
and the purchase of aeroplanes
and dirigible balloons,
nevertheless the inventors of
airships in this country are to
receive every encouragement by
the department. In the general

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other
diseases pht together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies,and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment,
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufacted by
F J Cheney & Co, Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitntional cure on the
market. It is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon
fnl. it acts directly on tne Diooa
and mncons surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cnre. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address:

Pecallar Accidei! Vbereky Little Girl
Is Fatally lalored.
Harpers, March 15:?Another fatal
accident to a child happened near
here last Thursday, the 11th inst.
Little Mirty, the ten-year-old child
of Mr and Mrs W 0 Camlin of
Bloomiugvale, just across the river
from Harpers, was killed by a piece
L./inn)linn fullinf (IIkI r>P !n}i ! 11 OT Vipr

body. The little girl was waking a
swing on a "gallows" used for butchering
hogs, when the large cross
piece, not being nailed 10 the posts
it rested upon, fell, injuring her so
seriously that she dieJ after lingering
twenty-four hours.
Mirty was a sweet child, beloved
by all who knew her. She was a
first cousin ot little Willie Evans,
the boy whose death was reported
recently in these columns. To lose
a child from natural causes is hard
to bear, but to see one crushed to
slcxrh hefnre the helnless parents'
eyes is heart-rending beyond the
power 'of expression. The writer
knows this terrible experience, having
bad a loved one crushed to death
by a falling chimney in the cyclone
fourteen years ago.
Our tenderest sympathy goes out
to the bereaved parents and may God
who shows His mercies to all. heal
their bleeding hearts.

Unjust Discrimination.
They're calling the Marion
(Ga) Kecord man an "old-fashioned
editor," because he writes
in this fashion:
"A lawyer^harges a man $10
for ten niinT' s' conversation?
the man in sts on paying it.
A doctor charges $1 for a prescription
and the patient says:
'Oh, pshaw?is that enongh?'
An undertaker charges $100 for
conducting a funeral and he is
just perfectly lovely with everybody
inside and outside the family.
A man buys a gold brick
and apologizes for not having
bitten before. An editor walks
a mile in the hot sun to get the
facts of a death or a wedding or
social function and spends three
hours writing it up and tells
lies praising people until he
hates himself. Then if he makes
an iusigniticant omission, or
charges five cents straight for
two extra copies, he is a stingy,
careless, good-for-nothing, old
cuss, who never gets anything
right and charges four times
the price of city papers twice
^ as large."

That the yield of com from the average f; . can be greatly in- . . ,

In some cases remarkable results nave been obtained. ..
