It is only when eading the life stories of some f America's greatest men that jc realize how from the huinvest homes some of our counry's leaders have emerged to amc and to fortune. Congressman Fess related this ocident in a recent speech- Ho old of a young man, who finding liglit coming on, stopped at a arm house and asked the farmer f he might do some work to pay or a night's lodging. The farmr said "No, I don't ueed any vorlc now, but you are welcome o the night's lodging." The boy aid "No, if I can't got anything o do to pay for my lodging I rill go on." The farmer then ook a lantern and held it for the >oy to spilt some wood to nav or liis lodging, "he boy split he wood and stayed with the armor that night and the next norning went on his way- That toy was George Peabody, who iccame the great philanthropist, irho has given millions of dollars o worthy causes and helped iiindreds, perhaps thousands of oung men to acquire educations nd to become honored and usual citizens, CONGRESSMAN LEVER Hon. Asbury P. L ver, of outh Carolina, is one of the lost vigilant as well as one of le most influential of the Southrn Congressman, lie has been orking industriously as chair uin of the committee on Agriulture to brinir about legislation lat will bunelit Southern farmrs, whose interests have hereto>re been neglected. His latest effort is in line with uggestions recently made by 'he Advertiser to encourage the )iut production of fertilizers and 1' munitions in the same plant, s the sinne compounds of nitroen and other ingredients can be nited for both purposes. Mr. Lever has introduced a ?int resolution in the house to rente a commission to assertain le best method of producing ithing the I'nilod States nitro3n compounds and potash for le use in the manufacture of irtilizers and munitions of war. he committee would comprise io secretaries of war, navy, in:rior and agriculture. The resolution is the same ropositiou which Mr. Lever mght to have the house adopt hen the army bill was up. It is all right for the governcut to make fertilizers and fursh them to the farmers and it right to make munitions of ar. We may not need the latr now but we may need them id as Mrs. Toodles said of her iction purchases, it will be indy to have them around. STRANGER THAN FICTION , They do some strange things New York sometimes. For stance Lawyer Cibson's son nee of imprisonment for larmy lias boon confirmed by the upretne Court which carried ith it a fine of $7d00. The range part of this is that lie as tried for the murder of the oman from whom he got this oney but there was a mistrial, vo juries disagreeing. Mrs. S/.abo, the woman who as drowned while rowing with ibson, had lost $10,000 through le lawyers control of her cash, hich furnished a motive for the urder. The result proves that is easier to convict a man of rceny than of murder but in lis case the two were so clearly terwoven that it is difficult to ie why the lawyer was convictl in the one case and acquitted the other. Prohibitum went into effect in eorgia May 1st It is a pretty iff law. Buying liquor is not lly prohibited, except in small jantities, but you can not read juor advertisements in the iwspapers. The law cuts them it. i 4 "* " ? 1 *fi' i >r mm Relief For 18 Years ( ?: t All Medical Treatment Failed to \ Give Mrs. Taylor's Daugh- ? ter Ease 1 ? THEN CHANGE CAME Mrs. Taylor Says "All This Improvment Was Gfven by Three Botttle of Tanlac" llow her daughter had been , under medical treatment for eighteen (18) years without ob- 1 taming permanent relief but , growing steadily worse in some respects and how taking just three bottles of Tanlac had relieved her suffering and had done wnn. derful work in restoring her daughter'* health, was explained by Mrs. W. S. Taylor, proprietress of the Taylor House, at 18 IN/4 Main St., Columbia, S. C., in one of the most remarkable statements given the Tanlacrepresentative by any Columbian. "1 think the work of Tanlac is almost a miracle, so great was! the relief it gave my daughter," said Mrs. Taylor. "It is a wonderful remedy. I never knew of anything like it," she added. After ??ating that she could heartly endorse Tanlac, Mrs. Taylor said : "My daughter suffered from a nervous breakdown, it seemed, for five (5) years. The doctors did not know what was the matter with her. She had no appetite, aiivl could not sleep. She had lost weight and lacked energy. Her system was in a terribly run down condition. l.-.i i ? 1 w.* .i?w uc?ii umier nieuic&l treatment for eighteen (18) years ?since she was just a little girl. She was always rather listless, and never wa* strong and healthy like other girls. Finally, her condition became fo bad that an operation was thought necessary, anil she underwent the operation. She did not show the improvement that was expected, however. In fact, she did not seem to receive any particular permanent benefit from it. "Like thousands of others, I suppose, 1 bought Tanluc because 1 had read so many of the testimonials telling of the great value it possesses. It is just ( wonderful the way Tatilac lielp ed my daughter! ller nerves were quieted by this remedy in a really wonderful way. It gave her a great appetite, an appetite that was so good she eat the 1 three regular meals each day and then would get something 1 more to eat at night before she retired. She began to sleep like 1 a (dill ft cA'iiolli i ti r? ul.o ' ? v.... 4 v., v vni <15 one imn nut dona in many month?, and, all * this improvement in her condi- 1 fion was brought about by just 1 three bottles of Tan lac. "1 recommend Tanlac because ' it is a wonderful remedy. I nev. er knew of anything like it. 1 ( think the work this medicine is j doing is miraculous. 1 have no ^ objection to your publishing fchie statement and saying I sure do believe in Tanlac, for I would 1 like for everybody to know of its value."

Chap- j i pell ol this town, says: "I suflered for live years with womanly troubles, also v stomach troubles, and my punishment was more than any one coulcf till. I tried most every kind of medicine, 1 but none did me any good. c I read one day about Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I decided to try it. I 1 had r-ot taken but about six bottles until r I was almost cured. It did me more good than ail the ottier medicines 1 had tried, put together. ( My friends began asking me why 1 looked so well, and I told them about Cardui. Several are now taking it." Do you, lady reader, suffer from any 1 of the ailments due to womanly trouble, such as headache, backache, sideache. sleeplessness, and that everlastingly tired feeling? If so. let us urge you to give Cardui a trial, we feel confident it will help you, just as it has a million other women in the past half century. Begin taking Cardui to-day. You won't regret it.

The way in which that poem was mu- < tiluted was simply scandalous. I haven't slept a night since. It exposed me to derision, l'eople think me a fool." The editor coughed. "Let nie show you. The tirt?t. line, when I wrote it, read in this wav: 'Lying by a weeping wniow, unuerneath u gentle slope.' That is beautiful aiul poetic. Now, how did youi vile sheet represent it to the public? 'Lying to a weeping widow, induced her to elope.' 'Weeping widow,' mind you! A widow! Oh, thunder and lighting ! % This is to much!" "It's hard, 6ir?very hard,'' said the editor. "Then take the fifth verse, in the original manuscript it said, plain as day light. Take away the jingling money; it is only glittering dross!' In its printed form you make me say, 'Take away the tingling honey ; put some llies in for the boss.' By George! 1 feel like attacking somebody with your fire shovel! But oh, look at the sixth verse.

A farmer that we used to know quite well always put on his garden plot Back of guano and three or four loads of stable and other kinds of barnard manure. His garden covered about one-flfth of an acre, and waB good ind to begin with. In fact, he had selected a good, rich spot of ground for is garden. The fertilizer he applied amounted to a thousand pounds per ere. and the barnyard manure to about seven or eiuht tons. Of course, he row a good garden, as most people do, and yet he often wondered why hiB arden was bo much better than other parts of his farm. He was a good armer und made plenty of everything, and to spare. He knew that he made iberal applications of fertilizers and manures to his garden, but was never uite willing to acknowledge that these made all the difference in the yields. Our gardens are usually the richest spots on the farm, and are so only beause we muke them so by fertilization and cultivation. Every acre in the iverage farm could be mado just as rich if we tried to make it so. We do lot consider Bufflcienfly the factors which make fertile land. We do not trive to do intensive farming, but rather make it as extensive as our acres viII allow. When we wish to make an additional bale of cotton, or bushel of orn, we take in more land instead of enriching what is already under cultlvaion. l)r. L. H. llailey has given in his book, ' The Principles of Vegetable Gardenng," some valuable suggestions on the use of commercial fertilizers. "The tind and amount of fertilizers," he savs, "are to he determined by several ircumstances: (1) The earliness or quickness with which the crop is to be >btained: (21 the intensity of the ODerations to which th? man is committed* ,3) the character of the land as regards tilth and texture; (4) the character )f the land as regards richness in plant food; (5) the kind or species of crops o be raised." Whatever the condition of the land or the nature of the crop, t must be fertilized if the gardener meets with success. Competition in the .ruck-growing business can bo met in no other way than by liberally fertillz,ng the ground on which the crops grow. Dr. Itailey has wisely said that fertilizers must be applied in excess of the actual needs of the plants. It ia^ , impossible to distribute a very small quantity of fertilizers over a large ardh ~ Vegetables are such rapid growing plants that one need not fear that much of tho fertilizer will leach out through the soil en aicount of rain. If it is applied close to or in the drill row, all of it should be saved. The plants will absorb it before it gets away. The formula generally recommended consists of a complete fertilizer, though the acid phosphate and nitrogen ihould come front different sources, even in the same fertilizer applied at any given time. The mixture for gardens should be composed of as many kinds of ingVedients as possible, carrying the three fundamental elements of plant food?potash, nitrogen and phosphoric acid. Voorhees recommends heavy applications of such mixtures to the com-* mercinl gardens and to truck patches. He says 1,000 to 5,000 pounds per acre of such mixture should be applied to asparagus, and as much to beets and lurnips; Jess than that to peas and beans. With any amount an after application has been found profitable. This is sometimes called the second application, which is not generally a complete fertilizer, but is composed of nitrogen, or one of the other elements alone. The- second application of fertilizers may be composed of ammonia and acid, or other formula to suit the immediate crop. Garden vegetables need large applications of fertilizer because arv check in their growth produces inferiority in quality. ' is said by Dr. Bailey that any delay in the growth of let no o radishes will generally cause a pungent (lavor or sha. > tast^ tha is :ndesirable. It cut down the market value The ny i < remove any cause for this is to fertilize well and properly and i 11 e ivau The turnip is made very inferior when there is a check in gr< \ 1'ie vegetables that are thus stunted seem to revert to the original type m which they were derived, especially with regard to taste, and hence should he carefully looked after tn regard to fertilization and cultivation. Fertilizers should he applied to the vegetable garden as early after the spring breaking as possible, as the soil ought to be saturated with rich plant food before the plants begin to grow very much. Then they will grow much more rapidly and make far better vegetables. Tlie second application should be made about the time the young plants are half grown. This is as definite as a statement regarding this practice can be made. For all prize crops, a third and fourth application is math, and with telli.ng effects. No one cm. ? *.ty that the vegetable garden Is the one nine* in which large dividends can be made from the use of conv utercial fertilizer* * iRCCfctVIKG TELLEBil **.1*111# -#r After the I ...fOHr Honeymoon Start Right!
