Spasms
St Vitus’ Dance
Many persons who suf-
fered untold agonies from
epilepsy fits spasms and
St Vitus’ Dance are to-
day well The strength-
ening influence of Dr
Miles’ Nervine upon the
shattered nerves having
restored them to ‘perfect
health
“I endured ngony that word can-
not express from St Vltua' dance
whleh followed a very severe spell of
rheumatism I doctored with a phy-
sician: but the more I took of hi med-
icine the worse I yet My mother's de-
votion saved me After she had become
almost heart-broken as well as phys-
ically exhausted from constant care
by the advice of a neighbor she procur-
ed a bottle of Lh Miles' Nervine From
the first dose to the last a continual
change for the better was notlcable
and when I bad taken eleven bottles
I was well and In rohust health”

“Our little hoy Harry had spasms
for three years and although we doc-
tored with many physicians ha con-
tinued to grow worse until be had ten
spasms In one week About that time
our attention was called to Dr Miles'
Nervine Wo begun giving It to him
Ills Improvement seemed slow but
when he had finished tho fourth bot-
tle the spasms had disappeared and
have not been seen now for years We
shsll always recommend Dr Miles
Nervine"

FARMERS’ EDUCATIONAL
Ml
CO-OPERATIVE UNION
'i 01 AMERICA — !
Get your split log drag ready Pret-
ty soon tb roads will b sloppy
That's tbs prim tints to uas tb drag
A victory for tb cotton raisers
now will mean an asler victory for
others when th lima comes for them
to make the test of strength
It l about time that yon were
planting out a few more grspe vines
Tou will appreciate them later on
and they will not ahlrk their work at
any place along the line
The longer night of th winter
should not And you without plenty of j
good reading matter Newspapers are i
ao cheap now that all can affofd to
have plenty of good reading matter
and not have to read trash elthar
Have you got your sheds fled up so I
that the poor dumb brutes can shelter
themselves from the fierce winter
rains and winds? If you havent you
have no buslnesa classing yourself
with the people of a Christian nation
Have you taken a squint at the
kitchen lately to see If It Is fixed up
like a Farmers’ Union kitchen ought
to be? If'you have not done ao take
a look at what your partner has to
contend with and fix her up like she
ought to be fixed
The things that are done within the
scope of bureau life are the things that
have a red hot revival fire behind
them Take this feeling Into your Un-
ion meetings always and let It go out
from you Into the whole body Better
to be a little too hot than too cold
The first thing to do In consolidating
the small schools In order to get larg-
er and better ones Is to get good roads
Then the belance of the problem Is
as It looks like most everything
Wbuid be helped by good roads don't
K?
If there Is a little place where noth-
ing else will have room to grow plant
a grapevine there The grape has had
to do with the history of the world
since the dawn of civilization and It
has only really begun to do 1U best
service for the human race Plant
vines
W you have had no higher Ideal In
life than that of making a pile of mdn-
ey It Is high time that you were learn-
ing some sens- It la a duty to look
diligently after your business but thlE
does not mean that you are supposed
to absorb the other fellows business
too
The hunger for place and position
has robbed the farm of many of Us
best men and In too many Instances
ha made wrecks on the shores of
ttmo of splendid craft that should
have been an honor to the great Qod
who created then All thla from a lack
of proper education
Don't fall out with your neighbor
because be does not see bln way clear
even yet to Join the Union If you
show by the results that it Is a ben fit
to you he will come along all right
later on and will mak a bood mem-
ber when his reason is committed to
the grand work of the Union''
It does look like the farmers would
some time find out that It la the first
Jaw of natur to take care of ones
golf Now when a county goes to work
and spends thousand of dollars build-
ing courthouses while there is not a
foot of decent roads In the county
some sort of an educational Institu-
tion ahould ba opened
Some people seem to think that
bean and pea are entirely out of
faahlon but they are not Go to the
store and price 'em and get surpris-
ed at th money there would be In
th common old cornfield bean and
stock peas They beat cotton all hol-
low as Health producers
Don't go along year after year
planting the same crops on the tarns
ground if you expect to get the largest
returns unless you Intend to feed the
land those elements that this constant
crop removes Rotation on land la
like a variety of food to the roan or
domestic animals Glva It a variety
of things to do
Do not hesitate to try all aorta of
npw crops You should not make
fool of yourself and put too much land
and time on experiments but this
does not mean that you ahoul not
plant new aorta of crops This affords
not only the' means of advancement
along all line but It la fine dlvaraloa
from ths routine of life to try new
things sad not their sconomU value
Any good farmer U an experimenter
next to being a good farmer
There Is always a cry going up rr
more and better men in atl trade
professions and vocation Thla Is as
true of the farm a elsewhere Mea
wtth big broad brow and hard heads
are wanted to take hold of th proV
leme that are no confronting the
farmer There la aa much pay for
th “captain of Industry" on th farm
aa In the chambers of commerce or
the field of mechanical exploitation
Whet we need I the development of
the captains to that high degree of ex-
cellence which ha characterlaed thoe
who hava attained greatness In flasa
cl el field
the farmer must bear the
RUNT
The farmers who are la debt ar not
less furtunata than tbosa who asaal
suffer hacaua of the Indebtedaess
During tb rcnt flurry on Wall
street the government of the United
Slates our land of tha free and homo
of tha brava went down Into th treas-
ury and hands! out millions of dollars
of tha people' rnonay to aid tb hanks
and speculators of the east to hold
their stocks and bond and not b re-
quired to aell at a sacrlflc
Th report has gone forth that th
hanks of th South will rfus to mak
further advances on cotton In order to
fore th farmers to sell at a sacrifice
and thus bring the money Into th
country at once and relieve the fi-
nancial strain
This report esused Congressman
Burleson of Texas to ask th govern-
ment to distribute 110000000 among
southern banks to relieve the strata
and keep them from forcing th cotton
on the market But the government
has already reduced Its surplus to
what Is termed "working capital" and
could not accommodate lbs producara
of wealth
There was plenty of money a long
as th gambling stock exchange
needed It to keep from sacrificing their
holdings
Thera waa non to help those who
work with the-Ir hand from sacrificing
Thua another lesson— one we might BEDTIME HOURS’
have already known — ha been taught I - I
the cotton growers No not another
lesson but another demonstration nt
the same old lesson That Is that t-e
farmer who la In debt Is at the mercy
of the outside world and that In being
forced to sacrifice his product by put-
ting them on the market he injure
ths prospect of those who are out of
debt for getUn gfull value for their
labor '
Another demonstraUon which tell
our people to get out of debt and to
atay ouL
Th only help w can expect must
com to ua through our own struggles
our own efforts the exercise of our
own wisdom Fi

SHORT DISCOURSE ON PROPER
METHODS Of SLEEP
Writer Declares ths Human Rac Do
"Not Know How Properly to Woo
"Nature' Swsst Restorer"—
Beware the Snorer
Man is the only animal that aleepa
on It back aaya the New York Press
Many animals sleep on their sides
but most sleep prone — that Is face
down Dogs never dream when prone
but Invariably do ao when sleeping
on their side All of us from the
country hve seen Bung the bound
chasing fabbits In his sleep An ani-
mal Would be perfectly helpless If It
slept on Its back And ao la man help-
less In that position
If some other fellow wants a fortune
let trim Intent a pillow that will allow
a man or woman or child to sleep face
down without having to twist the neck
nekrly out of Joint We still style It
the "back-up cure" and Introduce It In
all homes There Is no excuse for
lying on -the back and keeping the
spine hot all night while the front of
the body — the abdomen the stomach
the cheat the throat etc — la allowed
to become chilled A hot spin is a
disease generator And on the other
hand a cold spine la death
Snoring la an Infernal nuisance to
every one except the snorer People
who sleep on their fronts never snore
Those who sleep on their back In-
variably do The palate as we know
It is the root of the mouth and the
floor of the nose Some style It the
hard palate Back near the throat is
ths soft palate When you aleep on
your back this get down about the
breathing apparatus and you snore
Some snores are worse than the mid-
night howl of a hyena Never marry
woman that snore Ask her before
you propose If she is addicted to snor-
ing and If ahe aay “yea" avoid her
It U much easier to relax when
sleeping on your front than when
sleeping on your back And what we
all need after touching the bed at
night la relaxation It la - a billion
pities that some scientist cannot teach
the art of relaxing Our strenuous
life of course la not blameless la thla
matter Wa go to bed In excitement
and the nerve are strung all night
That Is to aay we go to bed In full
tune like a piano and cannot possibly
let the strings down Therefore we
do not rest Could we relax we could
aleep four or five taoura and arise re-
freshed but aa we cannot relax we
groan and dream and sweat and roll
over and have remorse for eight or
nine hours and get up with a swelled
bead '
Every man and woman in thla coun-
try was brought ap with the notion
that If the feet were higher than the
head In aleeplng all the blood would
rush to the bead and cause strangula-
tion This It the veriest rot Ad-
vanced physicians now advocate the
elevated feet for the cure of Insomnia
Hang your legs over the footboard
get rid of your pillow and go to sleep
like an Infant You are on your feet
all day and half the night Stand on
your head the rest of the night and let
the blood circulate the other way
Maybe your brain needs It
