THE HOME OF KING COTTON. VAB.IOUS COUNTRIES IS WHICH THE 6TA.PX.B IS GROWN. I'll Amrrirnu Cotton llnlnlnir In' etuajiry nltivntlnn nnil irpnf Hllnn of ilio Stnplo for market. AVhnt is cotton; why does it spin, and "who can compete with us in tho produc tion of tho fiber ? asks Edward Atkinson in his paper on tho cotton manufactures of tho United States, printed in the United States Census Report, and then tells us what it is. lie says: Cotton is tho wing of the seed of one of the plants belonging to a variety of which the hibiscus and mallow nro well-known specimens growing elsewhere. It is in digenous in many parts of tho world, both in tropical and temperate regions, but tho useful sorts aro those which grow in tho Southern part of tho temperate rono. A tree cotton is found in tho tropics, producing a fiber very silky in Appearance, resembling in structure tho fiber of the asclepias, but useless, like tho latter, for spinning purposes, for want of the form and structure which makes it possible to spin the cotton of commerce. A vine cotton may be found in some of the "West In'dia islands. In China and Japan are found varieties producing a short, clean and very whit; staple, practically useless, except it be spun and woven by hand. In India many varieties arc to be found, commonly known as "Suratu," a name which belongs to a district, but which is often applied to all East India cotton. East India cotton is, as a rule, short in fibre and rough in its character, adhering closely by its end to the seed, and is there foro difficult to remove, ex cept with great waste. There is, how ever, ono exception to this rule : In the Dacca province a long and tine staple is grown, which is produced by a class of people with whom its cultivation is an hereditary employment, and from which the fine muslin known as " woven wind " is manufactured. In Africa are to be found several varieties; but the only kind known to commerce is the cotton of Egypt, next in quality to our Sea Island staple. Aside from this, the cot ton of Africa is short and woolly. There are largo areas of laud, formerly irrigated, but now a desert, upon which 7,000,000 or more bales of the most valuable cotton could be annually grown, if Egypt were well governed and labor had its true reward. In Ilrazil a con siderable quantity of useful cotton is now produced, but slavery stands in the way of any great increase or improve ment of the staplo. There are vast tracts of land on the Paraguay and Parana rivers capable of producing tho best varieties, but as yet these places lack good government and that security to property which can alone fissure adequate labor and good cultivation. The same may for tho present Iks said of Mexico, but the conditions arc so rapidly chang ing in that country that Mexico may yet become an important factor in the culti vation of the cotton crop of the world. Cotton has been raised in Asia Minor, Turkey, Italy and the islands of the Pacific ; in fact, the area of land adapted to its growth in some degree is practical ly unlimited ; but the area which pro duces the most useful varieties is at present substantially limited to the southern portion of the United States. No treatment of the manufacture of cot ton can rightly begin without giving the reason why cotton spins. Nature begins to twist each fiber upon its own axis, else man could make no use of it. Is is the ' nly fiber, either vegetable or animal, with the exception ot silk, which can be worked without any preparation or machine just as it comes from the boll or fleece.- It can be imagined how some Indian woman in Central Asia first gathered the fiber as it hung from the boll, twisted itwithhef fingers into a strand, as one may now do; then, holding it by the middle with her teeth, doubled it and made a strong, rough cord: and then, making a bobbin of a bit of bamboo reed and tying the ends of the cord to other reeds, interlaced them, and made the first web of cotton cloth. Any one can do this to-day with cotton, 6&d it would be difficult or impossible to perform this work with any other fiber. The next step in the process might have been the one which is even now practised In making the finest fabric ever spun and woven in the world the Dacca muslin, previously referred to and known as the "woven wind." The cotton is separated from the seed by a haud machine known as the churka, of which the modern roller gin is but a modification: and no invention has ever yet displaced the roller gin in the treatment of the finest fiber, tiKe that ot Dacca ana the sea island cot- j ton of America. Next may have been the application of the fishbone to the carding of the fiber, which is still in use, and of which the modern card is but a modification. Twisting upon a distaff, in the same way as tho cotton is spun in India and flax in Italy, may be tho next step in the progress of the art, and at last the weaver may have constructeclsuch a loom of reeds as is pictured upon the walls of Babylon, while the weaver, hit ting under a palm tree, as she docs to-day in India, and weaving only in the morn ing, when the dew makes the handling of the fiber possible, may have brought the art slowly and gradually to the per fection of the woven wind. In the whole treatment of cotton, as it is now prac tised in the finest factory of modern kind, thero is but one original invention ; all else is but a change, or modification of these prehistoric methods. That one in vention was the one which Sir Richard Arkw right borrowed from a previous in ventor and put in use about a century ago, namely, the extension of the strand prior to the twisting by the spindle. This was accomplished by the use of sev eral pairs of rollers, ono placed in front of the other, and those in front working at a higher speed than those behind. Yet Arkwright's invention itself is im perfect; and whoever discovers a substi tute for the leather covering of the top rolls which are used in this process may add from five to ten per cent, to tho capacity of every spiudlo and loom now in use in the world. The only other original invention ever applied to the cotton fibt-r was that of Eli Whitney, whose raw gin, afterward improved and developed by Carver, made the prepara tion of cotton for the spinner quick and at the lowest cost. The process of what is tailed manufacturing the cotton fiber iuto yarn and cloth begins with the process of ginning, which must of necessity bo carried on near the field where tho cot ton is grown. It is tlw most important department in tho whole scries of opera tions to which the cotton fibre must be subjected; and, ns yet, there has been less of science and art, and less of tbe modern system of division of labor, ap plied to this depaitnient than to any other. Hut progress has been made even here. Machines for cleaning tho cotton in the seed and prepnring it for tho cot ton gin, which had hardly been heard of before tho Atlanta cotton exposition of 1881, have been introduced nnd sold in largo numbers. Cotton ginning estab lishments, in which as much art and scieuce have been applied as in those of Egypt, established by English capital ists, have been set up in Beveral places, and the old methods, by which the cot ton has been depreciated after it had been picked, are rapidly going out oi use. Cotton is also in n great measure becoming the product of the intelligeut farmers dwelling upon healthy uplands, and by improvements which have docn introduced during tho last few years its cultivation has been carried further north in latitude and higher up on hill and mountain slopes than was ever thought to be possible in former days. The great Appalachian chain of mountains, extend ing from the northeast to the southwest, marks a line on which the moisture brought in in by the guU stream is con densed, falling in frequent showers, but seldom in heavy storms, over the Caro linas, Georgia and Alabama, on whose uplands healthy homes for white cotton fanners are being established al most without limit. To the west of this chain the great valley of the Mississippi and its tributaries, bordered by bottom lands of untold fer tility, otters the noon of great crops to compensate for the less healthy condi tions of climate; and to these rich river bottoms colored laborers, who are more free from danger of malaria, are tread ing in ever-increasing numbers. In Texas the melting snows of the far-distant Rocky mountains, flowing into the arid regions of the northern part of the State, burst forth from the ground as rivers fully grown, lending moisture to tho soil over vast areas, even before the rivers ap pear in great springs. Over all tins vast area is found a climate which is not trop ical, nnd in the largest part of this area white men. as well as blacks, can live in comfort and health. To Italians, French, Spanish and the inhabitants of Southern Germany, who are accustomed to the climate of warm countries, these por tions of the South offer homes and work where a comfortable subsistence can bo gained more quickly than elsewhere in this country, and where there is more than an average opportunity to create wealth. The use of the seed is adding profit to the production of the liber. When all the parts of the plant are worked, as they may be, either into fod der or directly into fertilizers, the cotton field may become richer every year; and land which has only produced one bale to eight acres, like Farish Furman's farm in Georgia, will bo brought in a few short years to two or three bales to the acre. The Gay Head Indians. The Gay Head Indians inhabit the recently incorporated town of Gay Head on the westerly end of tho County of Dukes,Mass., which embraces the whole ol the island of Martha's Vineyard. This In dian town has an area of about 2,400 acres, which is divided into three penin sulas, Nashaquitsa, Squiqnocket and Gay Head. This town is nearly severed from the rest of the island by Menem sha pond. At the present time there are about 200 Indians at Gay Head, and un like many other remnants of Indian tribes in the Commonwealth, they have for a few years past been gradually in creasing iu numbers. There are about fifty families, and the people here have been marked through a series of years for seeking more profitable sources of in come than their isolated situation natural ly afforded, and some of them have achieved some distinction as efficient masters of vessels. The morals, educa tion aud marked indications of civilized advancement among them are so strik ing that they attract attention among those who chance to visit their seques tered island home. If there is a spot in all New England where a recluse might wish to find per petual repose, free from the troubles and anxieties of life, Gay Head ia the place, and yet the Gay Headers are quite jealous of the influences and approaches of for eigners, having had a good deal of trouble with those who have married some ot their daughters and settled among them. Formerly any member of this tribe at Gay Head could take up, fence in and improve as much of the land as he pleased, and when inclosed it became his own. It might very naturally be inferred that such a state of things would engender many disputes and quarrels, but such was not the case. Such a state of things was a kind of "impcriura iu imperio," not con ducted by any code of laws except bone .and muscle of those taking up the land. Viie Gay Head Indians are a mixture of the red, white and black races, and there is, too, some Southern blood among them, and also Portuguese and Dutch ; for listen, here are some of the names among them, to wit: John Randolph, Madison. Corsa, Silvia and Tanderhoop. Through the intermarrying aud the coining in of foreigners it has almost pushed out the purely Indian names. They are, on the whole, a moral, frugal, industrious and temperate people, aud are quite equal in these respects to white people, with simi lar surroundings. Duston l'ost. Illustrative of Greed. The greed for more, awakened by giv ing, has illustrations too numerous to mention. ,-I wish I was rich," said a ne'er-do-well to an intimate friend who was well off. "How much do you want?" said the man of means. "One thousand dollars would make me perfectly happy." 'You are sure you wouldn't want any more?" "Not another dollar; it would perfectly satisfy me." His friend drew a bank check for a thousand, and tossed it across the table, much to the first speak er's astonishment. "Gosh!" said he, "I wish you'd make it two thousand. Of all passions jealousy is that which exacts the hardest service and pays the bitterest wages. Its service is to watch the success of our enemy ; its wages to be sure of it. A Overwhelming ( ompltment. A young gentleman anxious to loam to sing, went up into tho garret ono Sun day night about bed-time, nnd resolutely commenced his exercises w ith his Psalm book. Ho had been singing but a short time, when his father, a fidgety old gen tleman, stole out of his bed-mom, with his night cap on, and on reaching tho foot of tho stairs, mildly inquired: "James I" No answer. James was very busy with his exercises. "James ?" "Sir?" "Have you heard a very peculiarnoisc, James ?" "No, sir; nothing." " Oh ah I thought but never mind." The old gentleman walked back to his room, muttering indistinctly. Presently James resumed his exercises, and was getting on famously, as he thought, when his parent, like tho ghost of Hamlet's father, again camo forth, ex claiming: "James 1" "Sir!" "Are you sure that Bose is chained up?" "Yes, sir; I attended to it myself." "Very well, very well; no matter." Once more he returned to his room. Wondering what his father meant by inquiring after the house dog, Rose, James was silent for a minute, but soon returned to his exercises more vigorously than ever. Again, however, he was in terrupted by the voice of his parent, shouting "James!" "Sir!" "I am sure Bose is loose." "It can't be possible, sir." "Ho is, I tell you." "What makes you think so, sir?" "Why, for this last half hour I have heard something that sounded very much as if that dog was worrying the cat." James never resumed his exercises after that overwhelming compliment. In the center of a big circle of gold watches in a Maiden Lane, New York city, watchmaker's window, is a hand some, open-faced chronometer, with this placard: " The first watch over mado in America by machinery." It is a relic. It was mado in Roxbury, Mass., about 1850. It runs for eight days with a singlo winding. It was the first watch ever made in this country that was entirely manufactured by machinery. It is as perfect as the standard watch of to-day, and differs but little in the general plan of construction. After Three Day. Mr. Chakl.es W. Morris, "Eagle" office, Pittstield, Mass., writes. May 2. 18SJ: "For several months my wife's mother (Mrs. Amy Boyce) ha t been in a very precarious condi. tlon with dropsy or Brieht's disease of the kidneys, and having u-ed all methods ami measures for her restoration in the line ot treatment by our leadiu? physicians, and having failed to benefit her, her family de spaired o( seeing her relieved, and gave her up to die. Happening to run across the tes timony of a Mrs. Dawley.who had been cured of similar sickness by using Hunt's Remedy, we at one procured a bottle of it, and com menced giving it as directed. After using it three days she was so far improved that she could get from her bed to her chair without assistance (a circumstance that had not hap pened for months). Previous to taking it she was troubled more or less with short breath, requiring a continuous fanning to keep her alive. This gradually improved as we continued the use of Hunt's Rtmedy, and on the fourth bottle she was able to set up all day. She was bloated terribly in both limbs and body upward to the langs. The tenth day the bloating left her bowels and now she is not swollen above the knees. Her kidneys were very bad at the time, discharges being of a bloody character and emitting a sicken ing odor. I can say that the change in her case has been wonderful, and Hunt's Remedy has worked a miriyla in her." Color Your Butter. Farmers that try to sell white butter are all of the opinion that dairying does not pay. If they would use Wells, Richardson 4 (Jo' Improved Butter Co'or, and market their butter in perfect condition, they would still get good prices, but it will not pay to make any nut the best In color and quality. Thi color is used by all the leading creameries and dairymen, and is sold by druggists and mer chants. Wbei Doctor rK.agrse - it will be time enough to doubt the reality of Kidney-Wort. Doctors all agree that it is a most valuable medicine in all disorders of the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels, aud frequently prescribe it. Dr. P. C. Ballou, of Moukton, says: "The past year I have u?ed it more than aver, and with the best results. It is the most successful remedy I have ever usad." Isuch a recommendation speaks for itself.

The laats arw. briefly, as follows: Mr. Will-am A. Crombio. a young man formerly residing at Birmingham, a suburb of Detroit, and now living at 2s7 Michigan avenue, in this rlty, can truthfully say that lie has locked into the future world and yet returned to this. A representative of this paper has in terviewed him upon this important subject and his experiences are giveu to the publio tor the first time. He said: " I bad boon having most peculiar sensa tions for a long while. My head felt dull and heavy; my eyesight did not scorn so clear ns formerly; my apetite was uncertain nnd I was nnaccountab.y tired. It was an effort to ariso in tho morning and yet I could not sieep at night, fliy ino.itn tastcrt nauiy, i had a faint all gone sensation in the pit of my stomach that food did not ratisfy, whiln my hands and feet felt cold and clammy. I was nervous and irritable, aud lost nil en thusiasm. At times my head would seem to whirl and my bourt pa'pitatod terribly. I ha i no enorgy, no ambition, nnd I seemed indifferent of the present and thoughtless for the future. I tried to shake tho feeling off and persuade myself it was simply a cm tor a little malaria. But it would not go. 1 was determined not to give up, and so time passed along and all the while 1 was get'ing worse. It was about this time that I noticed Fluid lie gun to bloat fearfully. My limbs were swol len so that by pressing my fingers upon them deep depressions would lie made. My fnoe also begun to enlarge, an 1 continued to until 1 could scarcely see out of my eyes. Ono of my friends, describing my npearnneo at that time, said : 'It is an animated some thing, but 1 should like to know what.' In this condition I passed several weeks of the greatest ngony. ' Finally, one Saturday night, tho misery culminated. Nature could endure no more. 1 became irrational and apparently insensible. Cold swtat gathered on my forehead; mv eyes became glazed and my throat rattled. 1 seemed to bj in another sphere and with other surroundings. I kucw nothing of what occurred around mo, although 1 have since learned it was considered as death by those who stood by. It was to me a quiet state, nnd yet one of great ngony. I was helpless, hopeless and pnin was my only companion. I remember trying to see what was beyond mo, but the mist before my eyes was too great. 1 tried to reason, but I liad lost all power. I felt that It was death, and realized how terrible it was. At last the strain upon my mind gave way and nil was a blunk. How long this continued 1 do not know, but at last 1 realized the presence of friends and recognized my mother. I then thought it was earth, but was not certain. I gradually regained consciousness, how ever.aud the pain les oned. I found that my friends had, during my unconsciousness, been giving me a proj aration I had never taken before, and tho next day, under the influence of this treatment, the bloating bet-an to dis apjwar and from that time on I steadily im proved, until to-day I am as well as ever be fore in my life, have no traces ot the terrible acute Bright' disease, which so nearly killed me, and all through the wonderful instru mentality of Warner's Hafe Cure, the rem edy that brought me to life after I was virtu ally in another world." "You have had an unusual experience, Mr. Cronibie," said the writer, who had been breathlessly listening to the recital. " Yes, 1 think I have," was the renly, "and it has been a valuable lesson to mel I am certain, though, there are thou-ands of men and women at this very moment who have the came ailment which came so near killing me, and they do not know it. I be lieve kidney disease is the most deceptive trouble ia the world. It comeslike a thief in the night. It has no certain symptoms, but seems to attack each one differently. It is quiet, treacherous, an 1 all tho more danger ous. It is killing more people, to-day, thau any other one complaint. If 1 had tho power 1 would warn the entire world asjainst it and urge them to remove it froai the system be fore it is too late." One of the members of the firm of AVhite head fc Mitchell, proprietors ill the Birming ham Eccentric, jiaid a fraternal visit to this office yesterday, and in tho course of conver sation, Mr. Crombie's namo was mentioned. "I knew about his sickness," said tlioeditor, "and bis remarkable recovery, i had his obituary all in type and annouucod in tho A'o centnc that he could not live unt J its uex issue. lb was certainly a most wonderful case." Rev. A. R. Bartlett, formerly pastoi of the M. E. Church, at Birmingham, and now ot rcnoo:craic, alien., in response to a telegram, replied: "Mr. V. A.

Tho prny- cisui ilo cimrcn wero reuuesLOUL lor nun on two different occasions. 1 was with him on the day he was reported by his physicia is as dying, and consider his recovery almost a miracle." Not one person in a million ever comes so near death as did Mr. Crombie aud then re cover, but the n;en and women wno are drifting toward the tame end. are legion. To note the slightest symptoms, to realize their significance and to meet them iu time by the remedy which lia been shown to be most efficient, is a duty from which there can ba no escape.

Because you are troubled with nervous aches and pains.
