THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1917 ipOE TWO THE BOBESOtflAN, IN OLD SLAVERY DAYS TAKE THE RIGHT KIND OF IRON Confidence That Existed Between - Master and Slave First Coon Hunt Urges Use of Non-Alcoholic Natural of the Colonel's Little Boy j Iron as Tonic Doesn't Hurt Correspondence of The Robesonian. ; Kidneys Red Springs, July 2 No one but The main danger in treating the a Southerner can understand the blood and system for uric acid and confidence that existed between mas-1 rheumatism complaints lies in the ex r and slave in the old slaverv days.1 cessive use of alcohol, which appar- Whilp th average Yankee imagined; ently must be used by the chemist that the slaveholder did nothing but ;work acd punish his slaves, the mas. tt:r "thought too much of them as property to mktreat them, besides the human feelings which he had for his. negroes. The property question was held in view, and it was natural that he would care for their comfort , and well being. Jf the Yankee's orse, w6se value was only $200, was curried ana watcnea ovet, uvn, much more was Sambo, who was worth from $1500 to $2000; looked after. The fine physique of the ne gro race now in the South is attri. buted more to the care with which the master looked after the relations of the sexes. But I started out to tell of an in stance of the confidence that exist. in a cpr and slave. The colonel had an only son who was anxious to go out coon hunting at night with the boys, as the hands on the place were familiarly termed, and although the night was dark and the woods rough and tangled, yet he trusted that little boy to their care with as much confidence as if he fcimaelf was to accompany the party. Charles had a big torch, while Mark 9nH Tom managed the dogs. The custom, was, when the dogs struck a trail, all hands had to Keep u- wun them until they treed the coon. All at once the dogs struck up a lively trial and in a few minutes jumped the coon, which after a short run, put himself up a large gum tree. At the first intimation of a run, big Sandy shouldered the little boy on his broad shoulders and carried him safely to where the dogs were baying. The question was now whether they should cut the tre down or climb and throw the coon down to the dogs, but as the tree was a large -one, it was concluded that Mark should Icliimb it. which ho did almost as quick as did the coon, and in a very short time the coon was on the ground, and he and the dogs mixed, but be fore they laid him out he made many a dog yell. Other coons1 and 'possums were caught that night and about daylight the hunters arrived safely at home. The little bov was so enthused ov er his adventure that he refused to! go to sleep but sat up with the Col onel, who was an early riser, to tell him of the various1 adventures of the night. After breakfast he declined to take a nap, but insisted on sroing out with the balance of the children. But a little before sun down he went up stairs to an' outside porch and, feeling tired, he thought he'd lie down and rest a little. That's the last he remembers until he was waked un about 10 o'clock, after the whole plantation had been looking for him since dark. He can never forget the row tha was made over him when he was found. up as lost, and was at a standstill, when a little negro girl, happening to go out on the porch, made the dis covery. This put an end to his coon hunting for some time. These early incidents of one's child, hood seem indebedded in our memory so that no after events can eradicate. SNYDER, to hold together the various medicin al elements found in the ordinary "patent" medicine referred to. Iron alone disturbs digestion, causes constipation and is very in jurious to teeth, but alcohol only in creases the appetite for the moment and the last execuse for its presence is banished by the discovery of Acid Iron Mineral, a natural medicinal iron mineral which contains three forms of iron together with cal cium, sodium, potassium, magnesium and sulphuric acid, all of which are valuable and non detrimental to the ftompch, kidneys, bladde-, nerves an! blood. , , Acid Iron Mineral is hiffhly con centrated, non-alcoholic and econom ical and goes from, two to ten times as far as other and weaker iron reme dies. It is just a pure, powerful, medicinal iron for weak, nervous, rheumatic, rundown people. Results from its use are wonderful. All druggists have Acid Iron Min eral (natural iron). A half teaspoon- ful in a glass of water is a dose. GetJ a fifty cent or dollar size bottle ana note how it improves the family's di gestion, appetite and strength. It helps sluggish, impure blood and the iron drives out uric acid and other poisons so apt to cause rheu matic and kindred complaints. As Tested Buckeye Hulls side by side with old style hulls Mr. C. H. Noblin, Forest, Miss., states that he is using Buckeye Hulls exclusively. He experimented in the beginning by using old style hulls and Buckeye Hulls side by side, and found by actual comparison that his cows fed on Buckeye Hulls gave more milk than the cows fed on old style hulls. There are several reasons why nut MMM RUSSEYF Vr HULLS UNTLE53 should give these results. They are all roughage. There is no worthless lint to clog the digestive tract and make the assimilation of food difficult. They mix uniformly and thoroughly with other feed. They are free of trash and are unusually clean. Test Buck eye Hulls as Mr. Noblin did and you will have the same results. And remember, they cost you very much less per ton than old style hullst , Ta seeure the best results fchd to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hulls thoroughly twelve hours before feeding It is easy to do this by wetting thfeirj tfdW& night and intoning tor the next feeding. If at any tame this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to feed the hulls dry, use only half is much by bulk as of old style hulls.
