One of the most common lame- SPA V IN . i ness among horses and mules is sprain of the back tendon, caused by over-loading or hard driving. Ashcraft's Liniment is a never-failing remedy. The Liniment is also extensively used for chronic rheumatism and for all kinds of stiff joints. For scratches" Ashcraft's Eureka Liniment is with out an equal. A few applications is all that is necessary to cure this dis ease in its worst form. Owing: to the wonderful anti- scratches. septic qualities, the Eureka Lini ment should be used in the treat ment of all tumors and sores where proud flesh is present.

We have advocated and forever ex pect to advocate that every able bodied man and women should sue the rail way at least once in their lives, and where they are not able-bodied they should have their next of kin do it for them. The average American juror fondljr believes that it is part of his bounden duty to return heavy damages against a corporation on general pinciples. He has been taught this both by the sanguinary populistic and anarchical press and by people who talk loud that the world owes them a living without returning value received for it. There are, indeed, people who live for nothing except to "cuss out" rail ways, express companies, telephone companies and other supposedly bouI less and bloodless corporations. In a recent issue the Charlotte Observer prints this news item : "Summons have been issued in the case of J. L. Smith vs. the Southern Railway Company -in which Smith will ask for about $2,000 damages from the company. The case is a peculiar one. The counsel for the plaintiff, Jones it Tillett, will allege that while Mr. Smith was on a train, he was assaulted bv hi-? two brothers and that the conductor saw the light and did not interfere. Mr. Smith was jusl rt covering from au attack of pneumOLia and was unable to defend himself from his brother?, who were drunk, it is alleged, and had quarreled with hini. "Mr. T. C. Guthrie, c-unsel for Mr. T. J. Wilson, has instituted action in a cie for the recovery of t2,000 damages for injuries to Mr. Ed. Wil6on, the young son of Mr. T. J. Wilson. The boy had gone on an excursion to Ashe ville and was leaning his arm on a hand-brake when the air-brake was manipulated from the engine and his arm was caught and broken." There you have it hot and cold. The chances are that Smith will re cover. Of courte the conductor is supposed to be a 'Talking arsenal and a coast and land defence. He is sup posed to not Qi punch tickets but mi nob. noa? r4 vrOna naaseno-ers But suppose turonductor had done what he really should have done placed the two drunken men in irons or kicked them off the train. Then there would have been two euits in stead of one. Who knows but what three brothers could enter into a con spiracy against a railway two of them p:etending to be drunk and the other ill. It would be a sure thing. If the conductor assaultidone of the drunken ones he could sue and recover for it has been held in this State that if you egg a populist orator on the platform Edit r flreen Tells of Us Remarkable uffm tu I'nlon Cou in j-. J. Z. Green In The Progressive Farmer. Some time ago, at your request, I submitted an article to you for publica tion giving a description of the rural telephone system in this (Union) coun ty. At that time there were about two hundred and fifty telephones in the rural districts of this county. Now there are probably between five hun dred and six hundred telephones among the farmers of Union county and the system continues to grow rapidly. The following will appear in our Home thiB week, and it gives examples of how the rural telephones are brought into use by farmers in the sale of their cot ton: "When the rural telephone system first began to be extended in this sec tion a question asked by farmers was, 'Will it pay!' Some well-to-do farmers hesitated because they were afraid it wouldn't be a profitable investment, and some are probably still hesitating on that account. Every comfort or convenience of farmers is not supposed to 'pay to bring them in a profit. A new buggy doesn't "pay.' It would be cheaper to go on wagons, but farmers have the buggies because they are a convenient and comfortable convey ance. There are times when the rural telephones are brought into profitable use. Last week when wild speculation put the price of cotton up as much as a cent a pound in one day, those who had telephones kept right up with the market and when it reached high-water mark several farmers sold their cotton by telephone. In this way the tele phone saved the farmers of this county several hundred dollars, for by the time they got to town to deliver their cotton, which they sold by 'phone at 100, the price was down to 15. ,0. One farmer alone made about $150 in one day by bringing his telephone into use in selling his cotton. For the past sev eral weeks the greater portion of the cotton placed on this market was sold by telephone. Farmers ten or fifteen miles from town stand in their houses and transact business with the mer chants. A man who would have pre ago would have been called a dreamer and a crank. Pretty good progress, in deed, and this is the kind of progress that helps the farmer. There are now twelve or fifteen tele phone exchanges besides those in the towns of the county. The whole sys tem is connected, in fact, there are dif ferent lines through which connection may be given to the principal towns, so that when a patron calls for a line and and it is reported "busy" there are other ways he can be given connection through, if he is in a hurry. All the country exchanges are, with possibly , of a railway station the railway must Atlanta Constitution. Many citiea of the Union Atlanta among the number have anti spitting ordinances that arai4ad letters. It would seem that they really try top en force this law in New York city, as witness the following life-like report from the police columns of The New York Globe:' The nextj prisoner arraigned was Jacob Seine, of Madison street. He was charged with spitting on the platform at the South Ferry house, where, it wae shown, there were many cuspidors. Magistrate Pool was about Ilj Jed MB MAI!

Ro ster's 1 i to fine the man $1, when the prisoner said : "Excuse me, your honor, but I have a sore throat." "That means more microbes," re plied the mpgistrate. "I'll make your fine t'2. Persons who have colds and lung troubles should be careful not to spit on the lloors of buildings." Charged with spitting three times in the Tnird avenue elevated, Jacob Salz man, of 577 Brook avenue, was ar rested this aiorning by Orlicer Joyjve, of the health squad. He was taken be fore Magistrate Flammer, at the Har lem police !eourt, who fined him On hearing the sentence Sal.man threw up hjs hands and begged : "Please let me go, judge. I have a wife and six children." "I can't help that," the judge re plied. "You had no right to pit no matter how many wives and children you have." Iu default of payment the juisonei was committed.

FREY, Baltimore, Md. one exception, owned and operated by individuals who put in switchboards and establish and operate exchangee at their own expense, charging rents for connecting lines and 'phones. Two or three farmers unite and build party lines to the "central" and where two or more 'phones are on the same line they have to pay only fift- cents a month for each 'phone. Therefore, the only expense the proprietor of the exchange has in its establishment is the installment of the switchboard and the running of a line to connect with the other systems. He, of course, fur nishes the operators. child ten or twelve years old can operate an ordi nary neighborhood "central." Wire , and 'phones tire cheap and it does not cost the farmers much to build their lines and put in their 'phones, and the low price of fifty cents a month 'phone rent is not burdensome to anybody. In towns where the owner of the ex change furnishes and puts in 'phones in residences the rent is 1 00 a month and for stores $2.00 a month.

That is if the man egged has a ticket It would be a sure thiDg in the scheme we mention because the drunken men could sue if molested and the sober' man could sue if he was not protected. 8uch idiocy may be law but well we have too frequently quoted the words of Mr. Bumble. In the other case there is a printed warning that yon must ndt stand on the platform and yet if a boy goes to rubber necking outside the car and gets the blackberry jam mashed out of him he niut also sue.

In the last analysis nobody knows, but we do know that it is under strict law. Abuse that law even shghty, pain results.

It is hard to understand why farmers everywhere do not inetall the rural tel- 1 ephone service when it is simple and so cheap. The cost is a tnlle compared with the convenience and benefit. There's no such thing as getting along without it after it is once established. It is a quick means of transmitting news and it is only a question of time before it will become general through out the country. All that is necessary nwtoget the system started in any neighborhood is for somebody to take the lead and put in a switchboard and connect it with the nearest town. No use to wait to get the desired number children of farmers to say that they will patron ize it. Some may talk against it at the start, but be patient It's very "catch ing" when it gets started and is much harder to stop than the smallpox. In fact, you can't stop it.
