"Washington as the home of

does not so often occur to one
that it is the city of notable

A farmer drove -lowly along

his wagon, but oveT the edges I
could be seen the heads of sever

As he drove on he was accosted [
by a swell city dude, who
thought he would crack a joke
on the "hayseed," and sung
out: "Your ark seems pretty
full, to-day, Noah !" The far
mer looked up and unconcerned

The Same Old Story
J. A. Kelly relates an exper
ience similar to that which has
happened in almost every neigh
borhood in the United States
and has been told and re-told
by thousands of others. He says :
"Last summer I had an at
tack of dysintery and purchased
a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
which I used according to di
rections and with entirely satis
factory results. The trouble
was controlled much quicker
than former attacks when I us
ed other remedies.'' Mr. Kelly

derson, N. C, For sale by Hood

And :-h»- thugs h»? used to have

hard cash.
And so it doth soon appear to
him that the nit re handling of
cash hath no lasting pleasure in
it, and he doth find that his
vexations and expenses doth
multiply at a great rate. And
he mourns in spirit and is full
of trouble, for his cash capital
is fast slipping away from him,
and he wishes he was back
home on the dear old farm once
more, put, alas! he hath not
the to buy it back again,
and he soon realises that be
cause of his folly lie will soon
have to begin all over again,
but this time as a renter.
And so we have spoken a
proverb. Be ye not deceived
by the glimmer of the silver
dollars in the drawer of the
merchant man, for, verily tiie
merchant doth also have his
troubles, and oft he doth not
know how he will pay his bills.
And I say unto you that, after
all, man doth mainly put forth
his energies that he may have
food to eat, and when thou hast
solved the food problem on the
farm, then thou art wise, and t
soon the dollars that thou gain- t
est from the products of the
farm will cling to thee and abide
with ; for verily I say unto you
that the merchant, the clerk
and all the rest of those who pro
duce nothing have to spend the (
bulk of their earnings for the .•
very articles of food which thou
canst produce on the farm if ;
thou hast the brains and the
will to do it. (
