Auil apart trom their beauty, their money value on the market in ftotuethini; kandwiiiie. For the past tiro wstMoim drwted turkeys have rangt-d from tweuty to twenty-five renin per pound on the city mar ket, aud at that price, any little extra attrutiou given them is well reiiaid.

For early in spriii);, when turkeys flrttt begiu to lay, there are very few bugs, worms or insectn for them to pick up, aud a turkey's diet must consist largely of meat if yon want strong, healthy pOllllM. It is nut nocetisary that the male bird should lie with the bens dur ing the laying season, as one day's service ill fertilize an entire litter of eggs, tie they eleven or fifteen. If the male bird is kept away from the liens, they will not wander oft' so far and will make their ueet close in.

I have often heard people say they "cau't raise turkeys; they all die." This may lie true in some cases. There-are some things to be considered, but if you start right withyouug poults and keep it up, there is very little trouble. As soon as the turkeys aro all hatched, give each one a groin of black peper; then take hog's lard and a few drops of car bolic acid mixed well, and grease the wings just a little at a time, but often, say at least three times a week. Also dust the hen with wime good insect powder every few days, and put a little of the grease on her.

Miss Dora Young, once a belle of this city and yet handsome despite an extraordinary gain iu flesh, was talking with friends in her home today, her 33rd birthday, when she suddenly produced a revolver and blew out her brains. The cause of the deed was that the young wom an bad so increased in weight that she was becoming a monstrosity, acquaintance failing to recoguize her oo account of the rapid change in her appearance. She was so greatly depressed by her misfor tune that her reason was under mined. Hiss Yonng's rase was the stran gest ever kuown to medical science. Normally weighing 170 pounds, she became ill six mouths ago and had to submit to a surgical opera itlon. From that day she began gaining flesh at the rate of five r ,4f pounds a week, and this contiuued LjCOU S OnUlSIOn until she tipped the scales at not for from 300 pounds. the State, which was, iu a sense, a commeudable act, but be was gross ly wrong iu taking money lor a sorry cur, nnder fraudulent repre sentations; and that be could not see how auybody could waut to pay ftiO for a dog, stating that he was no expert ou dogs only knowing Newfoundlands, mastiffs, pointers and those box-faced things womeu ride in carriages with.

As stsin as Jordan got the dog back he would fill another order with him. The big dog iu the case which the iusjicctor had kept for exhibition to the jury should the case come to trial hud been reshipped seveu times to par tics iu Nebraska, New York, Penn sylvania and South Carolina. This dog, be said, was advertised with the following pedigree: ''Husha way Hap out of lie use of I lent he- cote; close relation to Lad of Kush, Jingo, Kip Hap aud King of Kent." He said the dog was a stray cur alniut the freight yards iu Winston, and last December followed a rail road man named Longworth to Kernersville. There be took up with a uegro, who sold him to Jor dan for 13. This dog was first shipped to Dr. A. L.

He brought all the way from 130 to 50 each time, but there was never any change iu his pedigree. The inspector said lie bad Deen ante to stalilish at least thirty cases oi worthless dogs being shipped, but none of them was as well traveled as the dog under especial consideration. Judge Adams, in pleading for the young mun, said lie hud bud but little chance iu life; that he had the support of a mother and sister ou his hands, his father and broth er having been shot down in their owu home iu Kernersville when he was a little boy by revenue (iflicers and killed; that he really dealt in high pedigreed dogs, but as numer ous orders came in for them and the real dogs gave out, the young fellow could not resist the tempta tion to till an order with any sort of dog that came bandy.

Your Uncle Toliey has lieen re quested to make several announce ments to this congregation. There will be a prayer meeting at W ulow Lnsloe s on next lliurs day night.

You will now give me your un divided attention, while I deliver a lecture on hearts. You have sr haps observed, my friends, that there lire a great many dillerent kinds of hearts. There are brave hearts and cowardly hearts; good tieails and bad hearts; hard hearts aud tender hearts; sweethearts and bobtail heart Hushes. I told you in my last lecture that your heads were made for a pur Mise, and I want yon to use your heads today to grasp the idea that (iod gave you jour hearts for a purpose. They are Just as impor tant in your physiological and psychological construction us your heads are. As you prance along the highway of life, you will dis cover that a heart is a convenient thing to carry along with you, esiieciully if it is a light and happy oue. If you have a light heart, you will find yourself wanting to help toto somebody else's before a great while. But before you un dertake to assume the care and transfer of some blue-eyed girl's heart, you would better know that it will tit reasonably well in the same grooves as your own. Your Uncle Toliey has known many a soft, tender heart to lie brokeu by coming in contact with a hard, un feeling one. And, my friends, don't mistake gush for tenderness, (iush may pnweed from a light head instead of a light heart. The subject of hearts is one that gets very near to us all. The heart is the center or all our leelmgs. it is the scale iu which we weigh the acts of our friends aud ought to weigh our own. It is the bar at which we iudire our enemies. It is the fountain head of all thoughts and deeds. It is the safe deposit where we treasure tip all the sweet memories of the past, and the tab let on which is marked the scars of ill treatment. It is the captain of the little craft iu which we journey down the stream of life. It is the dwelling place of the soul that indestructible spiritual lire that dwells within us. There are glad hearts and sail hearts, and hearts that are broken. Did you ever think, dear friends, that no human being was ever borivl whose destiny was not linked with the heart of some one else! There is the mother's solicitude for her child; the heart is its abiding place. The two hearts are bound together by the tender chords of affect ion, and no distance, that separates combines the best oil with the valuable hypo phosphites so that it Is easy to digest and does far more good than the oil alone could.
