/ PROSPERITY FOR THE SOUTH.
Advance In Cotton and Higher Price of Iron
Means Millions.
Memphis, Term., October 8.—
A special from Baltimore says:
The one thing which has been
lacking to make continued and
general prosperity for the South
—prosperity for the farmers as
well as for the manufacturers
has come, says the Manufactur-
ers’ Record, in its weekly review
of Southern industrialconditions.
The advance in cotton, if the
price ruling today holds, as
it probaby will, means thatSouth-
ern farmers will receive at least
$75,000,000, possibly $100,000,000,
more for this year’s crop than
-for that of last year. This means
a great deal to the South; in fact,
to the whole country. The ad-
dition of $75,000,000 to $100,000-
000 to the value of the South’s
cotton, the production by the
country at large of about 2,500,-
000,000 bushels of corn or about
300,000,000 more than the largest
ever before raised; the high
prices which cattle raisers are
getting and the enormous de-
mand for all kinds of agricultur-
al products by reason of the gen-
eral employment of the people
at good wages are factors in the
business situation, which must
have a very telling effect. The
fluctuations of call money for
stock speculation in New York
count for but little as against
these solid facts.
Trading in ore and coal lands
continues. The greatest activity
for the time seems to be in the
brown ore district of Ware, Ga.
Never before in the history of
the Birmingham district has its
productive capacity been so ac-
tively taxed as now.
Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident is narrated
by John Oliver ot Philadelphia, as
follows: “I was in an awful condi-
tion. My skin was almost yellow,
eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain
continually in back and sides, no
appetite, growing weaker day by
day. Three physicians had given
me up. Then I was advised to
uso .^Electric Bitters'; to my great
joy, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. I continued their
use for three weeks, and am now
a well man. I know they robbed
the grave of another victim.” No
one should fail to try them. Only
50c., guaranteed, at Ambrose
Johnson’s drug store.
War Stamp Taxes.
Washington, October 9.—The
worry and annoyance, to say
nothing of the expense of having
to stamp every check or tele-
gram that you may have to draw
or send, is by no means near an
end. Contrary to general ex-
pectations, Secretary Gage can
not see his way clear, at the pres-
ent time, to recommend to con-
gress'a modification of the war
revenue tariff, and for a couple
of years more, at least, these
petty drains upon the purse of
The individual will have to be
borne with complacency. The
public treasu^r is overflowing
with money, and the daily re-
ceipts continue to show a healthy
increase, but no relief can be
afforded the tax payers of the
country until the situation in the
Philippines is better understood,
It is impossible, for the present,
x) estimate what it will cost in
glood arid, treasure, to quell the
so-called insurrection, and until
this has been determined the
work oJJ bleeding the American
public will continue without in-
termission. The only hope held
out by Secretary Gage rests in
the possibility that if by Decem-
ber, 1900, the conditions will war-
rant a modification of this emei-
geney act, congress will be asked
at the short session to either re-
peal the act entirely or to so
change it as to afford some relief
to the tax payers. Meanwhile,
the treasury will continue to pour
out a golden stream for the “be-
nevolent assimilation ’ of a race
,.f people who will have none of us
A who are determined to sacri-
iice everything in defense of their
country.

Biblical Recorder: If there is
a boy or girl in your reach, whis-
per him or her some thought of
the glory of climbing up-hill, the
top still to be attained, the climax
and all the best of life lying be-
fore; opportunity, dauntless
hope, infinite possibilities and
the unspeakable wealth of aspira-
tions, all the possession of youth
and young manhood and young
womanhood. Who that has his
face towards the sunset and feels
the downward ease of the otter
side of the hill but would ex-
change all that a life has brought
of wealth, of friends, and almost
of loved ones, for the place of the
barefoot boy or girl who have the
hill and sunrise before them?
A Thousand Tongues
Could not express the rapture
of Annie E. Springer, of Philadel-
phia, when Dr. King’s New Dis-
covery cured her of a hacking
cough that for many years had
made life a burden. She says:
“After all other remedies and doc-
tors failed it soon removed the
pain in my chest and I can now
sleep soundly, something I can
scarcely remember of doing before.
I feel like sounding its praises
throughout the Universe.’’ Dr.
King’s New Discovery is guaran-
teed to cure all troubles of the
Throat, Chest or Lungs. Price
50c and $1. Trial bottles free at
Ambrose Johnson’s drug store.
The most stubborn cases of
Bronchitis succumb to ballard’s
hobehound syrup. Price 25 and
50 cts. For "sale-" by Ambrose
Johnson, Druggist.
Impress upon your boy the
blessings and happiness which
are the heritage of the horticul-
turist. He is up with the lark
and goes to his work, he breathes
the bracing air which invigorates
his entire being, he basks in the
beautiful sunshine, he is welcom-
ed by the chirps of the birds and
the bleating and lowing herds.
Nature adorns herself with her
richest robes. Beauty and gran
deur are reflected in a thousand
forms. The inviting forests,
with their majestic bearinsq the
.broad.fields, with their wealth of
golden grain; the winding valley,
with its enchanting beauty; the
picturesque hills with their scenic
grandeur, and the awe-inspiring
mountain whose snow-clad peaks
kiss the sky, all greet him as a
beautiful damsel greets her be-
trothed. He sees omnipotence
and omniscience depicted on ev-
ery side. His work is varied and
entertaining, with cultivation,
and fertilization, and irrigation,
and budding, and grafting, and
hybridization. Monotony has no
chance to creep in. There is no
constant strain upon the nervous
forces, and as he wends his way
homeward when his day's work
is done and looks out upon the
lovely landscape as it reflects the
rays of the setting sun, whose
beauty would put to blush the
finest artist of earth, and gazes
heavenwaxrd and beholds that
majestic painting held in position
by the hand of omnipotence,
whose myriads of beautiful tints
harmonize and blend in a manner
which bespeaks divinity, he is
compelled to exclaim with the
Psalmist, “the heavens declare
the glory of God, and the firma-
ment showeth his handiwork.”—
