Tne Lane that Had No Turning k re-
markable for its honest strength, thor-
ough originality, and absorbing interest.
The scene of the story is Pontiac (whith-
er Valmond came), and the period the
middle fifties. The leading characters
are Madelinette, a famous signer, and
her husband, Seignior of Pontiac, for
whom she dares all and risks all. The
story gains interest as it progresses and
concludes with a striking and wholly un-
expected finale. The Lane that Had No
Turning will begin in The Saturday
Evening Post for September 29, and run
through five numbers.
RUSH BRANCH.
Sep. 10. 1900. Well, it rained all day
yesterday and last night. The ground
is very wet. I think farmers can
wheat now. I dont think the rain
do the cotton any good. It was so
that it will shed all that is on it, and
fore it can make a new crop the frost will
get it.

Messrs Len and Mack True and Lee

Red River is good, and cotton pickers
’ in great demand. Cotton is some better
than it was last year, but it is not opened
much yet Some men have picked 35
acres to get a bale. I think it will take
from 3 to 5 acres to get a bale.

Endured Death's Agonies.
Only a roaring fire enabled J. M.
Garrettson, of San Antonio, Tex., to lie
down when attacked by asthma, from
which he suffered for years. He writes
that his misery was often so great that it
seemed he endured the agonies of death;
but Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con-
sumption wholly cured him. The mar-
velous medicine is the only known cure
for asthma as well as consumption,
coughs and colds, and all throat, chest
and lung troubles. Price 50c and |t.oo.
