V COTTON MILLS SHUT DOWN. Great Curtailment In The Piedmont SectionCloses For Four Weeks. The great curtailment movement anion? the mills of the piedmont began recently. Many mills of North Ca olioa aad Georgia closed down until the mornimg of the 12th. Out of three million Bpiadles two and three quarter millions have signified that they would join in the curtailment wnich will mclnue at least a month in all during the summer. The movement will mean a cutting off of from one million to two million pieces of cloth, or one twelfth of the output Mr. Aug. W. Smith, president of the Woodruff mill, of Spartanburg said: ' "There is a loss in every pound of cloth we are putting out and we have to curtail to cover in part this loss and create a demand for our goods. I should say the output of the mills will be cut down onetwelfth by the curtailment, which will be done this Bummer, and which will amount in all to about four weeks time," Mr. John A. Law, president of the Saxon mills: "There will be the largest cur tailment among the cotton mills of Spartanburg county ever known. The price of manufactured goods is out of proportion with the price of cotton. A great many of the mills will close down on the first day of July and others on the 25th." Following is a list of Greensville mills which closed in one day, ts reported by the Greenville Piedmont: Practically every cotton mill in Greenville, it is understood, will shut down for a peroid of two weeks between now and the first of Sep tember. An agreement to this effect was reached several days ago. All of the mills will not shut down at the same time. Some will suspend operations as early as next week while others will wait until the last of July and the first of August. Campendown Mill will shut down on Monday for one week. This was the statement made at the offices of that mill this morning. When asked if there would be a shut down of only one week the officers state'l that they had nothing further to Bay at the present time. Monaghan Mill will close down the last week in July and the first week in August, making a total of two weeks. Brandon Mill will close down for two weeks but the exact time has not been selected as yet, stated Presi dent Westervelt. fhe shut down will be between now and Septem ber. The Carolina Mill will also close down for two weeks at a date to be selected later. This will probably be at tha same time as ,Branaan. The American Spinning Company will close down for two weeks as soon as can be arranged. This will probably be in July, or early in August. The Mill's Mill will shut down for two weeks, although it was stat ed that it was impossible to name the date just yet. There are some orders to be filled and as soon as they are met the mill will close down for the two weeks. The Wood8hire Cotton Mills will close the last week in July and the first of August, making a total of two weeks. The McGee Manufacturing Com pany will not close. The Vardry Mill is already shutdown. At the i oe Manufacturing Com pany it was stated thac there was nothing whatever to give out. This was the only mill in the city that gave ont nothing regarding the shutting down. Jt is not known whether it will close or not. Estimating the number of oper ative at tea to every one thousand spindles it will be' seen that 3,100 operatives will be idle for a period of two weeks. This dots not in clude the Poe Mill. Excluding that plant there will be approximately 310,000 spindles idle for two weeks. Charlotte News. IOO Reward $100.

Lee, ' MOUNT TABOR'S PAEABOHC VISION. - Matthew 17:1-8; 14-20 July 24. "This is my beloved Bon, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him." SIX days after our Lord's words concluding our last study, ho took Peter, James and John, three of his favorites among the disciples, Into a high mountain. There he was transfigured before them; that Is to say, his appearance changed, bis face shoue like the sua. his garments were white like the light Then the vision grew and Moses and Elijah appeared to be holding conversation with the transfigured Jesus. The impulsive St. Peter, anxious to serve, inquired whether or not It was the Master's will that they build three tabernacles; one for him, oue for Moses and one for Elijah, on the top of the mountain. One of the evangelists says, "Oe knew not what he said." Another accountshowsjthat jtbe three disciples were for a time over whelmed by something Uke drowsiness Tut later became fully awake. It was on this occasion that they beard a voice from the heavens, saying, "This is my beloved Son In whom I am well pleased; bear ye him." It re quired our Lord's kind words and touch to relieve the Apostles of their fright, and looking up they saw no one but Jesus. Bis transfiguration bad vanished, and it was the Master, Just as before. If, momentarily, they thought that Jesus had entered Into glory, they now perceived that they were mistaken. Another account tells us that as they were coming down the mountain side Jesus charged them that they should not tell the vision to any one until after bis resurrection from the dead. He thus explained to them that the whole matter was a vision, an apparition. This was a fulfillment of what he had told them In his last words of our lesson of a week ago. "There be some stand ing here which shall not taste of death till they see the Son of man coming in his Kingdom." These three disciples had been standing in bis presence at the time those words were uttered, and now they bad seen the Son of man in bis Kingdom glory n vision. The reality of that vision has not yet come to pass, although it is surely nigh, even at the door. St Peter himself declares that they accepted the vision as a corroboration of our Lord's assurance of his coming Kingdom. In bis Epistle be says, "We have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus, but were eye witnesses of his majesty his kingdom, when we were with him in the holy mount" (II Peter 1:18, 18). Yet the Apostle proceeds to tell us that this vision, helpful as it was at the time, became secondary as he came to a better understanding of the prophecy which more particularly describes our Lord's second coming and Kingdom. He says, "We have a more sure word of prophecy a more sure evidence than the vision to which we do well to take heed as unto a lamp that shines in a dark place until the day dawn" until the Millennial morning dawn. II Peter 1:19. Before leaving the story of the transfiguration, which symbolized our Lord's Kingdom glory, we note his gracious words to the affrighted disci ples, "Arise, and be not afraid." On several occasions he thus addressed them. It would appear that by nature many of us have a consciousness of oar own Imperfections and a realization of our unworthlness of Divine favor; and fears are likely to grasp us and torture us. This is because we do not know onr heavenly Father. The more we learn of him the more does the love of God cast out fear from our hearts, and assure us that be who created ns is sym pathetic towards all who are striving for righteousness. He is a great God, not a little one. True, be will not give his greatest blessings to any except those who come into harmony with him, but, on the other band, he is not a demon that be should be feared as such. He takes no pleasure in the suffer ing of bis creatures and will not permit that any should suffer eternally, therefore his provision that all shall have, through Christ, an opportunity for regaining perfection and eternal life, and that whosoever will not avail him self of this great privilege must die the second death must be annihilated. While Jesus and the three favored Apostles were In the mount of trans figuration, supposed to have been Mount Tabor, at the foot of the -mountain there was a man whose son was a lunatic, whom be bad brought that the Lord might expel the demon. The Apostles bad already been out as the Lord's representatives. In various parts of the country of Palestine, curing the sick und expelling demons in bis name; so they assayed to cast out this demon but could not The Revised Version speaks of the sufferer as an epileptic. Indeed, all higher criticism disputes that there is such a thing as obsession by evil spirits. It Is a common saying today among the Higher Critics that what our Lord and the Apostles mistook for demon possession t us merely insanity, epilepsy, etc. Of course the word disease Is broad enough to cover any kind of ailment, whether It be a direct affection from the Ad versary, or an indirect one through heredity. In either case there is loss of ease, dls-ease, discomfort We, however, have more confidence in the wisdom of the Lord and his chosen Apostles and mouth-pieces than we have In all the Doctors of theology and Doctors of medicine in the whole earth. We there fore accept this narrative Just as it reads, that Jesus rebuked the "devil" and cast him out of the boy. who was cured from that very hour. The disciples who had been unsuccessful In casting out this demon, called the Master away from the hearing of the multitude and asked him why they bad failed when they attempted to cast out the demon. He replied, "Because of your little faith." - Another account says that he stated, "This kind cometh not out except by fasting and prayer." In other words, the lesson to the Apostles was that their greatest power would result from their living very near to God, living lives of self-denial and prayer. Of course, fasting to be seen of men Is not here Inculcated, nor do we suggest that the works of pen ance on the part of disciples would make them more efficient In the under standing of the Lord's mystery; rather the thought is, the nearer one lives to God the more of the Divine power may be exercised by and through him. It is perhaps difficult for us to understand our I-ord's reference to their having little faith, for they surely exercised considerable faith In making an attempt to cast out the demon. Faith, to be successful, must be backed by spiritual power; and our Lord assures us that even with a small amount of faith we would be able to remove a mountaiu and nothing would be impossi ble. We are not to suppose that, our Lord meant that bis followers should try to remove mountains as a diversion, nor as a proof of their faith, for by so doing they would be seriously interfering with the interests of others who would be more cenvenlenced by having the mountain remain. This they would hare no right to do. We assume therefore that the thought must be that If in the fulfillment of the Divine command It should be necessary to have a mountain removed, and if the commission had been, given to ope of the Lord's followers to remove the mountain, and if hp could exercise the faith to obey the command, the result would correspond to the faith exercised. All that the majority of us could do would be to exereisp as much faith as possi ble and ask the Lord for more, and also seek to cultivate a greater degree of faith. $3.50 Receipt Cures W-nk Men-Free.

Think it Over. Were a friend to tell you: "I have my own carriage and have ridden my fill, I have gone to three balls in a night, I have lighted my cigar with a $10 bill, and all when money was tight' yon would thing he was boasting, possibly prevaricating. But if he should explain that the carriage was a baby carriage, the balls a pawn shop and the $10 bill a a board bill, yon wonld see the joker. When a farm paper advertises three full years for 35 cents, and it is a monthly publication, they give yon just 35 numbers in the whole three years' time. Again, when they advertise three fall years for a dollar, and it is a semi-monthly publication, yon get just 72 issues in the whole three years. In the first case ' sixteen issues less than The Progressive Farmer and Gazette gives its readers every year; and in the latter case they give only twenty issues more in the three years than we do in one year. And yon know that a paper coming once a month, cannot be as interesting, or as time ly, or as helpful as a paper coming every week. Don't forget that The Progressive Farmer- and Gazette is made in the' South, by Southern men, for Southern men, and dealing with Southern conditions only. s MADE FOR YOU1 " H0LSTEINS FOR FARMERS. A VeryiDealrable Breed of Cattle. Thellolstein Cattle in America are all decendants of Holland, and most of them are from the provinces of North Holland and Friesland. The Netherland herd book states that the pedigree of the Holdtiena dates back over 2,000 years. The Holstein cow in comparative size ranks with the Shorthorn. At maturity she will average 1,250 and often 1,500 pounds, while some remarkable cows have reached 1,800 pounds. The general milking qualities of this breed is far beyond any other dairy cattle. Some enthnastic fel low has said that they will drown any other breed in their milk. Some years ago when people were striving for annual milk yields the records of the Holsteius were so great that they were regarded as impossible by the pnblic. , The health and strength of these cows ismarvelous,and they hare great vital force and vigor. They have great digestive power and have no choice of food Is it any wonder then, that the farmer is attracted by these white and black spotted cowe? CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.
