[a health policy

For the debilitated conditions
of spring or fall, or any other
time, for that matter, the right
thing to do is to build up the
whole system. It is not your stom
ach, or liver, or nerves alone that
cause the trouble; you are weak
ened all over and must have re
newed stn lgth and vitality. These

Or. HARTER’S
IRON TONIC
When you use Dr. Harter’s Iron
Tonic you are helping to renew
the vigor of every-fiber of your
body. You are cleansing and en
riching your blood; you are
strengthening your stomach and
increasing the digestive fluids; you
are building up and renewing the
activity of your kidneys and fiver;
\ and you are feeding and revitalis
ing your nervous system. You
cannot do this without getting
well, and you cannot take Dr. Har
ter’s Iron Tonic without doing it.

Qenti.kmkn : —I unhesitatingly recom
mend Dr. Harter’s Iron Tonic, as I
firmly believe it is the best tonic on the
market to-day. Every spring and fall
my system seems to be in need of a
tonic, and for tbe past three years 1
have taken a bottle of your tonic twloe

Many persona will be interested
in noting the effect of the New
York State law that wens into
operation on the 1st of the month,
prohibiting any person engaged
in business from selling his stock
or otherwise disposing of bis bos
iness without giving flye days’ ho*
tiee to all creditors. The object
of the law is obvious. Its enact
ment was due to the energetic ef
forts of large ccncerns* which
claim to have beeif defrauded by
unscrupuouely storekeepers and
agents, ani it is asserted that its
enforcement will amount to a rey
olution in c r a n 1 n s of trade.
From the manner in which the
* statute seems to be drawn it should
be difficult of evasion. No honest
merchant, it would seem, could
offer objection to it.—New Or

Mississippi’s Greatness.
Tbe following is taken from a
Washington paper:
“Senator H. D. Money, of Mir
sissippi, was the orator of the eve*
ning at a meeting held last eve*
ning. in Confederate Veterans’
hall, corner 11th and E streets,
Washington, when a large num
ber' of Miseissippians together
with their families assembled for
the purpose of re-organ-zing
among natives of that State and
residents of this city. Senator
Money took for his theme, “Mis
sissippi,” and spoke for upward of
an hoar. Ho referred in eloquent
terms to the stand taken by bis
^native State in regard to the re
cognition of its women, saying
that the first woman’s college in
the United States was chartered
by that Steteand that it estab.
ished tbe first girls’ industrial
college. Mississippi, the Senator
•'id, was the first State to grant
married women separate property
rights. Touching the nativity of
the population of the State the
statement was male that but one*
half of one per cent of its people
I wrre of foreign birth, making the
j people oi that State conservative,
] where anarchy and “isms’’ can
fii|4 no foothold. The Senator
was frequently interrupted dur
ing his speech,” “

Our Undeveloped Resources.
Mississippi’s fortune lies in her
fertile fields, and thousands of
acres have never felt the touch of
a hoe. Factories may build and
eeiireads may stretch their shin
ing rails from border to border,
but yet our wealth must, in a
great measure, come from the
farms, those perrenial fountains
of sustenance and riches, says the
Vicksburg American. This is
true, in a measure, but the next
few years will demonstrate the
fact that underlying Mississippi’s
fertile fields are oil, coal, potter’s
slay and mineral deposits of va
rious kinds, which when located,
and properly developed, will add
m'llions of dollars annually to the
State’s wealth, and, taken togeth>
er, with the income of the mills,
fhetories, stock and truck farms,
and plantations, will place Miss*
issippi where she rightfully be>
longs—the foremost 8ta*e in the
union. Mississippi is practically
undeveloped. Nearly 50 per cent
of the State’s area is virgin for*
sat. Several hundred million
dollars worth of lumber will be
manufactured and shipped to out>
side markets within the next de*
cade, and the expert timber men
are authority for the statement
that it will /equire 100 years to
exhaust the merchantable timber

Mississippi is in need of practi

the science of- farming and are

The Farm Reflector,
■' The farm ie the looking-glass
which reflects the character of
the owner. If be is slovenly, his
house and yard and fence corners
will show it. If, he is kind and
generous, his live stock will be
gentle, sleek and fat. If be is pa*
tjent and industrious, bis fields
will sbow an increased fertility.
It he is a good provider, bis meat*
booses and hay lofts and corn
! cribs will show ample supplies.
If he is a man of taste the sun
roundings of his dwelling .will be
embellished with rare and beauti
ful flowers. No one can ride by
a country placo without making
up his mind as to the character of
the owner, for it will be reflected
in the houses, fences, fields, stock
and everything which is under his
eare.— Southern Farm Magazine.
The man who allows himself to

himself ought not to be allowed to
exercise the right of suffrage. We
have a contempt for the man that
“can be voted” and the greatest
admiration for the man who ‘‘can*
not be controlled,” but who freely
and independently acts and votes

to stating (what every one knows)

the State are negroes, but 21 per
cent of the appropriation for com
