A knowing editor savs : Of all tha fool.
ish things a man can do, that of stopping
his paper because he is displeased at some
thing therein, is perhaps the worse, and it
brings with it, iu own naaishment. Figur
atively speaking, he simply cuU off his
nose to spite hi. face." Ytt tbe average
man imagines that his indignant command
i siop nis paper will overwhelm the editor
with woe and sorrow, and not only stop bia
particular paper but everybody else's paper.
Ha seem, to think that tbe offending iour
nal, under bis displeasure, will immediately
suspend. But it doe. not. His name is
dropped from the Hit but the heavens do
not fall, nor the stars ceaso to shiue. The
un rises and set w'th its usual regularity,
tbe moon appears in accordance with the
almanac and the world rolls round as be

Dear Sir: I notice in the column of

two children of James Reynolds, in Haw
kins county, Tennessee, lost their lives and
that tbe third ono would have died, only
for the timely arrival of a physician. Cause,

Tor the pupose of killing vermin. The wri

hair dressing ror upwards of three years,
during this time my hair turned gray very
fast, and the memory was much impaired.
I now claim that for every oue person ben
efited by its use for a hair dressing, nine
are likely to be injured. One of the lady
employees at the McAlislerville Soldiers
Orphan School, must labor nnder the vain
delusion tbat it is an extra hair dressing
and vermin destroyer Tor I have frequently
found the childrens' hair dripping from its
Tree use. Does not the death of Reynolds
two children, and the death of Mrs. Gant,
of Newport, Perry county, prove it to bs a

Old in Experience.
We have had thirty years'
experience in manufacturing
Raw Done Super-Phosphates,
and farmers may depend upon
our goods.
There is no improvement
or economy of manufacture
suggested by scit-nco or Ac
complished by skilled expe
rience, that we have not
embodied in producing relia
ble and cheap fertilizers.
It has been shown over
and over again by testimoni

by analyses made and pub

reliable fertilizer for general
