The strangest military body in the
world is a band of cavalry at Saint de
Moorvay, a province on the east coast
of Africa, which is under the rule of
the French governor general at Mada-
gascar. These soldiers go about their
military operations on oxen. The ani-
mals are lean creatures, and it is said
they move with surprising rapidity.
Keep Your Blood Pur^.
No one can be happy, light-hearted
and healthy with a body full of blood
that cannot do its duty to every part
because of its impurity; therefore, the
first and most important work in hand
is to purify the blood so tb°t every
organ will get the full benefit of a
healthy circulation. There is no rem-
edy so good as that old family rem-
edy, Brandreth’s Pills. Each pill con-
tains one grain of the solid extract of
sarsaparilla blended with two grains
of a combination of pure and mild
vegetable products, making'it a blood
purifier unexcelled In character. One

I Farmers’ Co-
Na Advance in Wisdom.
Mark Twain tells how tour years
ago he was invited by the University
of Missouri to go out there and receive
the degree of LL. D. At the same time
he visited Hannibal, his boyhood
dome. Just as he was about to leave,
being accompanied Jo the station by a
crowd of citizens, Tom Nash, a school-
fellow, came up—white headed, but
still a boy. He shook hands with his
friend of many a year and nodding
toward the crowd said: "People of
this town are the same blamed fools
they always were, ain’t they. Sam?”

DENATURED ALCOHOL—A
OPPOTUNITY.
Already attempts have been made to
concentrate the making of denatured
alcohol In the big distilleries, by in-
sisting that a bonded inspector and
guage must be constantly employed
by each plant, making denatured alco-
hol. Such Is not true; and even it if
were true, it is evident that coopera-1 pTO.du^. 8"Ti8!ng
tive plants, centrally located, would be
more economically operated than
many small plants, which would have
to market their products in a haphaz-
ard and scattering sort of way. Those
who get in on the ground floor are
going to reap the benefits of this new
service of heat and power. It must be
remembered, however, that those who
go into the business must look to the
end as well as the start of the project.
The following extract from the Ameri-
can Hay, Flour and Feed Journal tells
of a proposition now before the Na-
tional Grange -that would be well for
the Farmers’ Union to take up:
z "It is proposed by the National
Grange that the farmers of the coun-
try should establish co-operative dis-
tilleries for the sole purpose of pro-
ducing denatured alcohol. This would
provide them with a remunerative
outlet for many products which now
are wasted, and what is of still great-
er importance, would furnish a cheap
and accessible source of power. Al-
ready our farmers are employing
gasoline motors to compensate for
the scarcity of labor. They are use-
ful for shelling corn, sawing wood,
baling hay, threshing churning,
spraying fruit trees, pumping water,
and for many other purposes. In
some places they Jake the place of
horses for mowing and reaping. But
the supply of gasoline has been di-
minishing. and the price consequent-
ly increasing. Moreover, It is almost
as perilous to have about as dynamite,
and anyone who keeps it on hand
must pay a high rate of Insurance.
Alchohol, on the other hand, vaporizes
so much more than gasolene that it is
not a dangerout explosive mixture in
the open air; and If It catohes fire it
can be readily extinguished by water,
which only spreads the fire when
played upon gasoline. But a .prime
consideration is its cheapness. Nd
longer need we depend upon coal and
wood for fuel, and upon oil and gas
for light. The diminishing supply of
wood, the rising price of coal, should
no longer alarm us. A strike in the
coal mining regions, (the arbitrary ex-
actions of the Standard Oil trust, need
not in future give cause for anxiety.
A source of power, light and fuel
cheap enough to bring it within reach
of the poorest, and which can be de-
rived from a dozen of our most com*
mon products, is within our reach.”
Go right on, do your duty, and don’t
worry about the rascals that you can’t
hinder, and who are not asking for
your help.
No better practical proof that coffee
is a drug can be required than to note
how the nerves become unstrung in
women who habitually drink it -
The stomach, too, rebels at being
continually drugged with coffee and
tea—they both contain the drug—
caffeine. Ask your doctor.
An la. woman tells the old story
thus:
"I had used coffee for six years and
was troubled with headaches, nervous-
ness and dizziness. In the morning
upon rising I used to belch up a sour
fluid regularly.
"Often I got so nervous jnd miser-
able I would cry without the least rea-
son, and I noticed my eyesight was
getting poor. 1
“After using Postum a while, I ob-
served the headaches left me and soon
the belching of sour fluid stopped (wa-
ter brash from dyspepsia). I feel de-
cidedly different now, and I am con-
vinced that it is because I stopped
coffee and began to use Postmm I can
see better now, my eyes are stronger.
"A friend of mine did not like
Postum but when I told her to make it
like It bald on the package, she liked
it all tight-" Name given by Postum

Some people talk, others act. When
anyone tells you he Is in favor of the

hand to aid the organization, his re-
gard for the Union must be of the
soap-bubble kind. . 1

I The year just ending has been the
’ most successful in tihe history of our
association. Its membership has
IfaJrihown a phenomdnal increase tn ev-
^brj direction and it is nof generally
conceded by all that to the Farmers’
union stand for 11 cent cotton is due
more than anything else, the fact that
up to this time the average selling
price of cotton has been far in excess
of 10 cents. Had our organization
Stood for 10 cent cotton the price in
all probability would never have gone
beyond that flgpre.
As a result of the uncompromising
J stand of the members of our organi-
zation, And those who have worked
with it, we have seen the price of
I cotton exceed 11 cents several times
during the season, while the average
price of all cotton so far sold has
gone beyond the limit of what we were
EW *«ked to meet.
There is nothing in the world as
effective as organization With every
branch of Industry or commerce or-
ganised to purchase the produce of
the farmer as cheaply as possible, it
’/>is more than ever dnsumbent upon the
growers of those products to organize.
In order that they may sell -these pro-
ducts at fair and just rates.
