A woman who has had experience with
thin disease, tells how to prevent any
dangerous consequences from it. She
snys: Our three children took whooping
cough last summer, our baby boy being
only three months old, and owing to our
giving them Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy, they lost none of their plumpness and
came out in much better hoalth than other
children whose parents did not use this
remedy. Our oldest little girl would call
lustily for cough syrup between whoops.

TME RICE INDUSTRY.
to
Gustave Jahn, a wealthy planter,
having interests in Louisiana and
Texas, but living in New York,
passed through New Orleans on
his way to inspect his Texas mill
located at Beaumont. He com
mented on the condition of the
rice-raising industry of this State,
and said that rice is the most profi
table of crops raised in this State,
ilo said that irrigation was the
problem that would have to be
solved, and that in order to attain
the very best results from rice cul
ture, the farmers would have to
orrect their methods with regard
the selection of seed and tho
details of the gathering and culti
vation of the crop. He said that
the rico used in tho island of Porto
Rico comes almost entirely from
the City of New Orleans.

THE AMERICAN NEGRO.
A book just issued by Reverend
Thomas Dixon entitled "The Leop
ard's Spots," on the future of the
American negro, is bringing forth
much comment over the entire
country. The noted divine is most
bitter in his utterances against the
race, and while in most instances
his assertions are too true, his idea
of deporting the negro from this
country is as preposterous as his
predictions of their menace to the
South are exaggeiated.
Following are a few quotations
from the book :
The future American must be an
Anglo-Saxon or a mulatto! We are
now deciding which it shall be.
The future of the world depends
upon the future of this republic.
The republic can have no future if
racial lines are broken and its
proud citizenship sinks to the level
of a mongrel breed of mulattos.
The South must fight this battle to
a finish. Two thousand years look
down upon the struggle, and two
thousand years of the future bend
low to catch the message of life or
death! * * * Cet rid of the negro Î
Ye gods, that would be a task ! The
negro is the sentimental pet of the
nation. Puc him on a continent
alone, and he will sink like an iron
wedge to the bottomless pit of bar
barism * * The African has held
one-fourth of the globe for 3,000
years. He has never taken one
step in progress or rescued one
jungle from the ape aud the adder
except as the slave of a superior
race. * * He has had one hundred
years of trial in the Northern
States of this Union, with every
facility of culture and progress,
and he has uot produced one man
who has added a feather's weight
to tho progress of humanity.
The more you educate, the more
impossible yon make his position
in a democracy. Can you change
the color of his skin, the kiuk of his
hair, the bulge of his lips, the
spread of his nose with a spelling
bookî The negro is the human
donkey. You can train him, but
can't make of him a horse. Mate
him with a horse, you lose the
horse aud get a larger donkey
called a mule, incapable of pre
serving his species. What is called
our race predjudice is simply Cod's
first law of nature—the instinct of
self-preservation.
Two great questions shadow the
future of the American people—
the conflict between labor and
capital aud the conflict between the
African and Anglo-Saxou races.
The greatest, most dangerous and
most hopeless of these is the latter.
The towering figure of the freed
negro has beeu growing more and
more ominous, until its menace
overshadows the devastation of the
South, throwing the blight of its
shadow over future generations, a
veritable black death for the land
aud it« people.
Sciatic itheuMatinm i' nrctl After
Fourteen Years of Suffering .
"I have been afflicted with sciatic rheu
matism for fourteen years," says Josh
Edgar, of Germantown, Cal. "I was able
to be around but constantly suffered. I
tried everything I could hear of and at
lut was told to try Chamberlain's Pain
Balm, which I did and was immediately
relieved and in a short time cured, and I
am happy to say it has not since re
turned." Why not use this liniment and
get well? It is for sale by Jas. A.Lee,
Druggist.
GROWING IN INTEREST.
The New York Herald comments
on the fact that when Mr. Richard
son, the Demooratic leader of the;
House, called the attention of the i
Ways and Means Committee to the
extortions of the Beef Trust and
asked if something could not be
done to give the people relief, ho
"was met with indefinite replies
and on motion Mr. Dal/.ell an im
mediate adjournment was taken."
The Herald declares that it is im
possible for the Republican party
to plav the ostrich role in the mat
ter. Mr. Richardson was aiming
to reduce the tariff taxes on meat
so as to bring in the element of
competition against tho trust, lint
the friends of the meat combine
would have none of it. The Her
ald says :
"Having an assured tariff mono
poly of the home market, the
trust exacts its own terms from
the unfortunate home consumer,
wlnlo shipping over his head
enormous quantities to be sold
abroad in open competition in non
free trade commnnties. Thus in
the eight months ending with
February no less than 210 millions
of pounds of fresh beef were
shipped abroad, besides 73 millions
of pounds in canned and pickled
form. Then for tho benefit of the

CUBA IS UNDEVELOPED
The United States geological
survey is about to issue aCazetteer
f Cuba" compiled under tho
direction of Henry diannett, the
geographer. Tho publication con
tains comprehensive data regarding
the geography, resources, climate,
people, occupations, civil divisions,
etc., of the island, and is illus
trated by maps and plates showing
distribution of population and prod
ucts.
It says the mineral resources, so
far as developed, consist entirely
of hematite oro, which has been
mined for many years a few miles
east of Santiago.
Nearly all of the ore, which con
tains about (»2 per cent of iron, is
shipped to tho United States. As
phaltum has been found in several
places.
There were in 1 HDD GO,711 farms
with an average size of 14!5 acres
and an average cultivation area of
thirteen acres. Mantanzas aud
Habana proviuces are tho most
highly cultivated parts of the
island. Of tho cultivated area less
per'cent was owned by its occu
pants. Sugar cane occupies 47 per
cent of the cultivated lands.
There were in Cuba in 189'.), 207
sugar mills, or Centrals, producing
daily 61,407 bags of sugar. There
were also Hf> stills, with a daily
capacity of 161,751 gallons. For
transportation tho island dopends
on very poor wagon roads and
1,100 miles of railways.

walked up to Col. Cody, aud slap

exclaimed in the breeziest of Wild
West Ways: 'Hello, Bill! IP are

years ago when the latter was car
rying out his contract to feed the
laborers of the Kansas Pacific Rail
way on buffalo steaks. In a year
and a half Col. Cody killed 4280
head of buffaloes and earned the
sobriquet of 'Buffalo Bill.' At
that time Clark was peddling

Mrs. Frank Chiasson, Patterson, La.,
writes June 8th, 1901: "I hail malaria
fever in very bad form, wss under treat
ment by doctors, but as soon as I stopped
taking their medicine the fever would re
turn. I used a sample bottle of Horbine,
found it helped me. Then bought two
bottles, which completely cured me. I
feel grateful to you for furnishing such a
splendid medicine, and can honestly rec
ommend it to those suffering from malaria,
as it will surely cure them." Herbine,
