The failure of the recently pro posed cotton trust, which was at tempted at a convention held at Atlanta, Ga., was not unexpected. The project of such trust, to be rnn by the cotton planters, was really in the nature of a joke, for if any class has opposed trusts of ever; form and description, it is the farming claBS. But the strongest thing sgain.t the trust was the fact that its estab lishment was most impracticable, and this latter fact had more to do to ending the proposed trust than all else. The chairman of the committee on resolutions at this Atlanta con vention in submitting his report taid. "Seveial times obstacles suggest themselves at the very outset. Io the 6 rat place, to be managed sue cessfnily your trust would .have to be managed by some few individ nals with a cotton exchange expert at the bead. Tbe masses of t'te farmers aie not in shape to partici pate in suca an organization because it requires money or free cotton, and even it they got in at the start, it would only be a very short time bifore the small holders would all be frozen out, and a vast engine in absolute control of a few men, whose interests would lie in the direction of tbe present speculative forces, "Even if a stock company should be formed and officers elected in due form,it would be so vast a power to lodge in the hands of a few men that I should hesitate to impart it anywhere. The officers could make millions by manipulating tbe mar ket, when the company could onjy pay them hundreds or thousands. Who wonld feel safe in the hands of a speculative expert, in the specula tire atmosphere of the cotton ex change, under such circumstances? "This situation reminds me of a bet between two parties, and the question aa to who should hold the stakes arose. One party suggested that Jim Jones hold the stakes, "lilt who will hold Jim Jones?" asked the other party to the bet. And so wonld I like to know who will hold the trust if the farmers should organize it?" Tbe trust plan can never be in stituted, much less successfully worked, by the cotton planter, and no one realizes this so well as the cotton raiser. Let every farmer first provide against every household . want by raising his own home supplies, then he ean raise what cotton ho wants for money purposes. The farmer of today can easily keep informed on the crop situation and therefore need not plant fifty acres in cotton aud make a los--, when by planting ten he may make what money he needs. A few dollars every year invested in good newspapers will let any far mer keep np with the crop situation and prospective prices of farm pro ducts. The Orreateet Diacevery T.t. W. M.

Our most highly-paid ambassador is the British represen tative in Paris, though he receives little more -than half the sum Dr. Leyds is to draw a beggarly 9, 000. Britain's ambassadors to Ger many, Austria-Hungary and Turkey receive 8,000 a year eaah. The representative in St. Petersburg has the next largest salary, 7,000;while i'800 less it considered euongh for the British ambassador who take up bis residence in tbe Eternal Oily. For some reason, known only to tbe diplomatic mind, our representative in Washington is much worse off receiving but 6,500 a year, though he has probably to work far hardei for his country. Thu ambassador to Spain receives 5,500, while the representatives, iti Churn and Persia draw 500 each less. The heads ol the legations in Japan, ' Brazil und Egypt each receive 4,000; but Lord Ui omer has beside l,00u as c "per sonal allowance." The British agent at Pretoria, who is paid by the colonial office, receives only J,000 a j ear. Tit-Bits. Cored of Blood Poison After Fifty-two Doctors Failed. Blood Balm Co., Atlanta, Cm. Gentlemen: In lb?:! a email pimple broke out ou my leg. It be gan eating and in four months 1 was treated by a physician of Talla dega 'Jounty, Ala., where 1 lived e:gbteen years. He relieved it for u short while. In six weeks it broke out again in both legs, also on my shoulder. Two small bones were taken' out. It continued until 1870. In this time I had twelve different physicians. They told me the only remedy was amputatiou; that it could never be cured. For six months I could not walk a step. 1 went to Mineral Wells, Texas, spent $300.00; came home; went to liot Springs, Ark., staid nine months all failed to cure tne. Iu 1887 1 came back to Birmingham. Ala. I was arvised to write you, which 1 did. You wrote uie that B. B. B. woa'd cure me, and I could get the medicine from Nabors and Morrow, Druggists, of cur city.' I bough', ten bottles and before I had fioishe-i my fifth bottle my legs began to heal, and in less than two mouths I was sound and well. That has been nearly two years ago, and uo sign of its return yet. 1 have spent in ensh over $400.00, and B. B. B. done the work that all tbe rest failed to do. You have my permission to publish this. I have traveled so much try ing to get well that my cure is well known. Fifty-two doctors have treated me in the last 17 years. All tbey did was to take what money I had, and done roe no good. l am now a well man. Prof. C. II. Ranoer. Shady iJa.lt), Oa. For sale by Druggists. Price tl 00 per lurge bottle.

Here is one: "A young clerical tetvant of the company, newly arrived from heme, was a guest at the palace, awaiting orders, and interceded , with the domestio chaplain to get him a good station. Tbe importunity reached tbe bishop iu due course, bat for some days produced no response.
