ROYJiL BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure The only Baking Powder made from Royal G rape C ream ofTartar NO ALUM f NO LIME PHOBPHATE REV. P. OLIVER WRITES. He Suggests That This Year We Plan Better, Work More and Grumble Less. Messrs. Editors: I have been thinking for some time to say something through the Reporter, hoping it may fall under some eyes, and be the means of doing at least some good. Time is very pre cious—we have only one moment at a time. For my part, I have never had any to throw away. I would not say a word for pub lication, only for the hope, how ever simple my thoughts may be, that they may do a little good. The matter I wish to speak of for a few minutes, is restlessness, or change. So many persons be gin business on certain lines, and because they do not succeed as well as they expect, or rather as well as they wished, they become discouraged, and decide to give that line up and try some others. Thus change from one thing to another, perhaps for years, and never accomplish any thing, all because they did not stick to the business long enough. Every young man should be care ful in deciding upon his life work, and if possible be sure he is right and then prosecute his calling regularly and faithfully, never yielding to discouragement. There are no lines of business that are free from difficulty and trials. Every one has his share as he passes on the rugged road of life. With the farmer, the calling upon which the whole world depends, there is nothing certain. The .seasons vary, prices fluctuate and no one can tell what his labor will produce. But one thing he can be certain about, and that is "seedtime and har vest, summer and winter will not cease," and If he does his full duty, if any one has any thing to sustain life, that he will have something. So as the season is here to lay plans for a crop, let every one plan, first of all, to try to grow ample supplies at home for famly and stock; then if tobacco, our money crGp, is low, too low to sell, we will be in shape to hold our crops until prices advance. No one is forced to sell, only by his own circum- Dropsy — Given up by Doctor "I had dropsy, and was told by my family physician that there was no chance for me. My family also gave me up. My limbs and body were swollen one-third larger than natural, water collected around my heart and I had to be propped up in bed to keep from smothering. I took Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy until I was entirely cured. This was in 1902, and I am now able to do any kind of work on my firm. My cure was certainly marvelous." L. TURLEY CURD, Wilmore, Ky. • • Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy has been wonderfully successful in relieving heart trouble. Its tonic effect upon the heart nerves and muscles is a great factor in • assisting nature to overcome h?art weakness. Or. MMm' Heart WniXy h nM Dr stances. So if every one in the tobacco region will do this, thus be a law unto himself, there will not be so much tobacco grown, more time and labor will be given to the necessaries of life. We should learn a practical lesson from our more southern neigh bors. A year ago cotton was 15 cents per lb. The farmers went wild, planted so much land to cotton that notwithstanding the drought of last year, the crop was too large for the demand, now cotton is about nine cents. How easily this could have been remedied, and the price kept up to fifteen cents. While tobacco, on the average, is low, too low, let no one become excited over the fancy prices a few men have gotten for superior grades and plan for large crops, but rather less acreage and better grades and more of the necessaries of life. Remember that our con dition will, in the main, be just what we make it. We so often blame others for the things for which we ourselves are respon sible. Let me suggest that for the year 1912 we plan better, work more and grumble less, and I am quite sure that our condition will be improved and we will be better contented with our calling and much happier in life.

Danbury Reporter THE DANBURY REPORTER The Year's Hookworm Campaign Most Successful. 52,911 Cases Treated. The annual report of Dr. Fer rell, in charge of the State Cam paign Against Hookworm Dis ease, sums up the activities ac complished during the year 1911. Some of the records are as fol lows : Sanitary surveys have been completed in forty-four counties and infection surveys in twenty three counties. State and Coun ty dispensaries for the free ex amination and treatment of hookworm disease have been operated in sixteen counties. At these dispensarieSi 63,625 have been examined and 28,202 treated. These treated cases added t0'24,709 which the physi cians over the State have treat ed show that 52,911 people have been treated since the campaign opened. The work is now being conducted in five counties and there remain on the waiting list six counties, making twenty seven counties waiting the ap propriation for the dispensa ries. During the year there have been distributed something like 200,000 pieces of literature con cerning the disease to people from all sections of the State, and about 500 public addresses delivered to appoximately 50,000 people. The work accomplished has been remarkable, not alone because of the treated for hookworm disease, but also for the activity which has been aroused among the people for providing themselves with sanitary surface closets to re place the unsanitary ones com monly found in use.
