Matches.
Three millions of matches, accord
ing to the statisticians, are turned
out every minute of the 24 hours of
the day by the civilized natives of the
earth. This is a consumption of sev
en billions a year, and it is said that
half of them are burned in the TTnited
States. Matches are cheap and very
insignificant compared with some oth
er articles of wood, but the manufae
turers complain that they are begin
ning to find the raw material for their
product scarce. Only the choicest por
tions of the best trees are suitable
Sapwood, knotty or cross grained tim
ber will not do. Instead of being a
by-product of other articles of mann
faeture, the little match is turned out
at hundreds of mills over the country
where the by-products are bulky ob
jects like doors, sash, shingles, siding
posts and cord wood. The pines, lin
den, aspen, white cedar, poplar, birch
and willow are the most suitable
match timbers.
Savings and Losings.
The Itritish P. O. savings bank is
raising hob about carrying petty' cur
rent candy accounts of the kids. Say
bootblacks and newsboys will deposit
a quarter, and take it out two cent?
at a time. Now, every such transac
tlon costs the government evactly 11
cents, same price as a $100 trans
action. Still, it seems to Tip if a
youngster can put in a shilling at In
terest, and has candy resistance
enough to purchase only two cents
worth at a time, such young Roths
childs should be encouraged, even it
it does cost the government a matter
of a thousand or so pounds more or
less per annum.—New York Press.
Farm Hands Should Marry.
The man who works on a farm foi
others makes a mistake if he allows
his twenty-fifth birthday to go by with
out having a wife and a bit of land o
his own. If he has learned his jol
well he has provided for half th<
battle of farming, and if he has only
a few’ hundred dollars laid by it wil
do for a start. He can rent if he can
not buy, but good improved little
farms can be had on pretty easy term?
these days. It’s better to be your owr
boss and not depend on the whim ol
somebody above you for your job
And a man past 25 and still a hatchet
or is on the wrong track and is miss
ing the best part of life.

STRUCK A RICH MINE
S. W. Bends, of Coal City, Ala ,
says he struck a perfect mine of health
in Dr. King's New Life Pills for they
cured him of liver and kidney trouble
after 12 years of suffering. They are
the best pills on earth for constipation
and malaria, headache, dyspepsia, de
bility. 25c at J. X. Sturdivant.
Are Doctors Any Good?
Foolish question! Yet some people act as if a medicine
could take the place of a doctor! The best medicine In
the world cannot do this. Have a family doctor, consult
him frequently, trust him fully. If we did not believe
doctors endorsed Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral for coughs and
colds, we would not offer it to you. • Ask your doctor.
No alcohol in this cough medicine. ]7C.AyerCo.,LoweU7Ma
If we did not believe doctors endorsed Ayer's Pills for constipation, biliousness, sick
headache, we would not offer then to you. Ask your own doctor about this.
