TAKES FUSS AT NOON, CURED NEXT DAY

Ml for Remedy Resnlta In _ A» the readers of this paper already know, the tests of rheumatism remedies recently made, resulted in an overwhelming decision In favor of the Fuss Rheumatism Cw«. of Flint WBOL ' ..-f''', Following this announcement there has already been recorded a tremendous increase in th* sales of "Fuss," and as a result, nihnerous eases of quick and -surprising cures are daily coming to Might, • In an Interview by Mr. Enos Klngs-well-known ladiets tailor ©£ Flint, Mich., one of the many confirmed 'rheumatics who decided to try Fuss, he said: "Yes, 1 had rheumatism for many months. I was flat on my back, and my limbs were swollen terribly. I was help- ; less and equid not sleep «l<hta 1 wa» one of those who heard of "Fuss" and the recent wonderful cures it has brought about. I started to take Furs at noon. X slept good that night. Though helpless before that, would you believe ’ it, I was up next day tor my meals and the day following I walked down town. 1 never saw anything like "Fuss." It has cured me. It is certainly wonderful." One of the most exceptional things which this remedy does, is to give immediate relief. It contains no alcohol or other stimulants and contains no dangerous or harmful Ingredients of any kind, being guaranteed under the National Pure Food and Drugs Act of June 30, 1308. z For sate by B.

Winifred Pullin Tells About Possibilities in the Southland.

Winifred Pullin, whose study of the soils and crops has. made him one of the best posted agricultural scientists in the country, is home for * couple of weeks from Alabama. He came back particularly to try to buy a car load of young draft mares for whieh he hi advertising in The SemiWeekly Republican. The first question put at Mr. Pullin when he came to The Republican office was. ‘'Well Winifred, have you discovered the land of milk and bonhyF • “Mighty near," was his reply, “we have sixty head of dairy cows and made $1,200 worth of hnney off t'.i clover on the lawn this summer." Winifred talked willingly of his experiences and prospects in the southland. He made only one request and that was that we should not say he was getting rich. Possibly it wa ; modesty that caused this request and possibly it was because he is not just sure what “he will be able to accomplish. But he kept his face wreathed in happiness as he told what he was helping to accomplish and what the present outlook is, His postoHic-' is Prairieville, but bis trading' town Is Demopolis, a eity of several thousand people. The Tombigby and Black Warrior rivers combine at that place and the Tombibgy is navigable all the way from Mobile and. north almost to the coal fields. It will be the nearest coal fields to the Isthmus of Panama that belong to the United States and it is expected that a port of entry will be established at Demopolis. Winifred has had great success in all crop growing so far and considers the soil . wonderfully productive. Oats and corn and alfalfa and all sorts of crops grow abundantly. A crop of com will grow after a crop of oats is harvested. Corn may be planted in February, while oats is seeded both in the fall and early in the spring. At the Marengo county fair a prize was offered for the largest number of grasses found on any one farm and Winifred won with fif-ty-three distinctive native grasses. In his search he found one kind of clover that puzzled all the botanical experts of the country and finally an eastern college professor identified it as an European clover not mentioned in any American botany. AU farm labor is colored there, but the foremen are frequently white. The land owners are not expected to work any but they direct all labor through their foremen. Next year Winifred will have for his foreman a young white man, born of Atlanta parents in Japan and a very shrewd and energetic young man. The farm Winifred is engaged in improving is known as the Bermuda Hill farm and consists of a half section. The residence is of colonial architecture, a kind found commonly among the southern aristocracy of a half century apo He is well pleased, with the conditions he has been able to establish there and believes that the future holds great possibilities for him, and we hare no doubt be is right, for such energy as he possesses coupled with his scientific knowledge of agriculture are certain to produce success,,, wherever there is half a chance and in that section of Alabama the chance seems to be a much bigger percent than half. Get th* *CtaMlfied Ad" habit and getrid of the things yon don't need. You will find that there is some good money in a. judicious W of The RppuMtcWn’s Hatmiflpd folnmn yX

For the Home Laundress

receive at the hands of the average laundress. Every woman should de such work tor herself It possible Rightly managed, it does not take much time or tmiihftHnd the result to Infinitely more satisfactory. It poslble hays pure rain water dir other soft water, as you want that which is free from lime or iron. If you soften the water with sal soda borax or ammonia, the proportion should be one tablespoonful to a gallon of water. See that it la entirely dissolved before placing the clothes in it. In washing waists and neckwear trimmed profusely with lace and embroideries use warm auda made from castile or similar soap. Lacy things ' should not be rubbed too much, but simply squeezed, and should not be boiled too long. Then rinse, bleach and blue and hang In bright Sunshine and fresh air, to dry. Do not use too much bluing. Try first with a white cloth before dipping any wearing apparel Into it. For sheer materials either rice starch or gum arable water may be used for stiffening. Rice Starch—One fourth pound of rice In one quart of water until cooked to a pulp, adding more water If necessary. Now pour on one quart more of hot water And strain through a cloth. Gum Arabic Water—Take one ounce of the best gum arable and one-half pint of bailing water, pour water over the gum and let stand, stirring frequently; strain through a cloth and then bpttle. Half an hour before ironing sprinkle and roll in a towel. A corn broom makes a good sprinkler. Use warm water, as it spreads better and does not spot the clothes. Do not let them lie long or they will mildew. Be sure your Irons are clean and rub a little paraffin over each one and try on paper before using. Remember that pongee should always be Ironed when it Is dry, and with a warm, hot iron. Iron. Iron sleeves first, and by using a rather small Iron you will find It possible to iron them without creasing, even if you do not possess a sleeve board. Then iron the body of the waist, doing the tucks and plain part first on the right side, leaving the embroidery and lace, which should be ironed on the wrong side, for the last. To iron tucks nicely start at the shoulder, holding the waist at the bottom of the tucks firmly with the left hand to straighten them. Wash Irish' crochet lace with soap and water, rinse thoroughly, then dip in thin cold starch, putting a drop of bluing in the starch. Have several thicknesses of blanket, covered by an ironing sheet, on the table. Lay the lace right side down‘bn It, cover with a cloth and iron until dry, pressing i down hard. Then take your crochet hook and carefully pull out each little picot, raise all..the petals of the flowers, then press the balls into shape with your fingers. Even a large piece like a coat or waist can be done at home just as well as at the cleaners by-following these directions. Before washing the side plaited frills and jabots, which are so pretty and popular, and yet so hard to “do up,” run a row of basting stitches about an inch from the outer edge. That will hold the plaits in position while washing and will save time and trouble later in ironing. These frills, by the way. should when possible be made separate from the blouse and buttoned, hooked or pinned on, so that they do. not have to go so often to the* tub. They really do not get dirty so quickly as the more exposed parts of the blouse. If you buy a ready made blouse with frills stitched on it ta an easy matter to rip them off and supply buttons and button holes. When ironing begin at the bottom, pulling gently from the top. The pleats adjust themselves.

To Put Up Corn In Jars

Put tender ears of corn In a colander and let a little hot water run over them for a moment. Then cut the com from the cob, scraping out the juke and rejecting the hulls. Pack into sterilized jars the kernels, working down compactly with a sliver knife. When filled to within an tneh of the top dissolve for each quart can a teaspoonful of salt and sugar in three quarters pint warm water and pour over the corn. Adjust the lid and steam three hours. Then take out and screw tightly, return and cook three-quarters of an hour longer. The boiling should be continuous.

Preserved Citron

Peel and seed the citrons with great care; cut into pieces about three or four inches in size and place the pieces over the fire In preserving kettle. Water should be added —just enough. to cover the citron. Cook slowly until able to pierce with a straw. Take out with a skimmer and place on a platter, and add to the remaining juice sugar in the proportion of a pound and a half to each pint of juice. Cook sugar and juice until *ll scum ceases to rise and then put the eltron back and boll for over an hour. Take the citron out again; add tn the Juice three sliced lemons to every four quarts of citron; remove only the seeds from the lemons, and. let thia boil for fifteen minute*. Turn .be citron Into tars and only 1 half 81! them with the fruit; fill up with the hot juice and seal.

ACCIDENT AND INSANITY PLEA OF DEFENSE.

Mate. He Mid tbat be wae a member ot the tread that retanred tb. indictment of murder against Poole. Mr. Hall asked him concerning the secooa anctoira counts in the indictment; those indicating that another weapon was used besides the shotgun to Mil Kemper. Mr. Barce objected And the court said that as there bad been nothing in the evidence to show that anything but a shotgun was used to kill Kemper, he would cast out the question and Mr. Flemming was excused. ' .7'7777t.77. ■ Elmore Barce then began his opening statement for the defense of John W. Poole. He first asked the jury to form ho opinion until all the evidence was heard. “What justice shall we mete out to the unfortunate man at the bar,” he said. “That Is the only thing we have before us now.” Mr. Barce said he would present a certificate from a doctor,* now dead, that Poole was homicidal, maniacal. He will show the records of the insane hospital where Poole was confined in 1903. -

“The diagnosis of insanity is a difficult thing. In all treatises on insanity one of the most marked things Is the changed appearance and expression, manners and customs of the Insane person. He developes an abnormal ego; he then thinks he is out of accord with the whole world; gradually he becomes careless of the conventions of society* of his clothes and appearance. When the time comes, he says he is not insane, that you are trying to get rid of him. He is always profane.

"When this man’s daughter gets on the stand she will tell you of her father’s mind. Again, a most learned man, who. knows every move of this man’s mind, a graduate of a great university, will tell you of the condition of this man. ' “This daughter couldn’t sit down with father and enjoy the comforts of home life. He insulted hqr, haunted her. Now, for the first time, this man has realized that his daughter in the one jewel of his heart in her faithfulness and devotion in this hour of his trouble. ’ i

“I will have a woman show that six years ago he was haunted by a spectre, that he was overwhelmed with fear, until his hair stood on end. “His brother will show that he has run in the fields after animals, with clenched teeth and blazing eyes, that he actually sunk his teeth into their hides. There was a man in Benton county named Quigley thSt this man shot He was returned to the insane asylum. The actual time he was In the asylum was eight or nine months.'' At this point, noon recess was taken and court adjourned until 1:30 o’clock. Mr. Barce continued with his opening statement for the defense when the afternoon session began at 1:30 o’clock. He said that the inability for a man to sustain a connected conversation was a proof of insanity. At times, he said, Poole could not hold the thread of a conversation, could complete an argument; but at other times he was so incoherent, he flitted to and fro from one thing to another. “A man will testify that he worked for Poole in 1902,” Mr. Barce continued, “and that Poole worked in the fields; that he was eratic and never accomplished anything. Others have observed that this man almost constantly talks to himself..

“I now come to that part of the case in which the defense is able to show without doubt that it is common for insane people to mutilate dead bodies. This man was going to take the body to Kemper’s brother in Chicago, surrender himself to the police, there to get out of the jurisdiction of the court of his own county, again showing his insane idea that everyone was against him. It is proven that the last thing an insane criminal wants to do it to stay near and touch the corpse, to mutilate it.

•‘One of the best indications of insanity is the perversions of human affection. As I told you, this man's son is insane; Insanity passes from male to male; I will say nothing against this poor boy, but the defense will show that this kind of a son would naturally come from an insane father; the kind" of boy who would invite people to hear him testify against his father on a homicidal charge. I do not censure the boy; I feel in myl mind pity for him; I hope never to see such a spectacle in a court room again: I never have before. The laws of Indiana give protection to the child who gives protection to, his father fleeing from justice. , • . "If you have any reasonable doubt as (o the defendant’s plea of insanity, that doubt must be resolved in favor of the defendant. - This man has said time and again that he is not insane. By all the scientists we will show that that is the surest sign of insanity. There wilLnot great array of witnesses for th* defense but J trust that when we get through, when you have heart the testimony of scientists, of Ms neighvon will wndAr a true «asd last ' '-'W* + * T ~” ’ " -

” * verdict for this defendant. I thank] you.” George W. Infield, of Lafayette, took the witness stand and Mr. Barce began the first examination for John W. Poole’s defense. The witness stated that he owned land in Jasper county, adjoining that of Mrs. Flora Poole. He stated that he was a graduate and post-graduate of Drake university and that he had made a study of the human mind. He said that he first met Poole in December, 1905, in Jasper county, ajid that he had had conversations frequently with the defendant Mr. Infield said that he met Poole in September, 1908. He came out to where they were working and before that he had noticed his tendency to wander about from place to place. Poole had taken a trip five or six miles into the country and when asked why he went, he said that he was looking for a dog that had followed him months before. He was out until midnight the witness said. <

Mr. Infield stated that he saw Poole once start In to sow grass seed, urgent work, drop that a short time later, go to see about a piece of tile, then haul a load of manure. This witness said that. in one particular instance, in 1906, he was out at his farm and Poole came the following day. Near their farms they had a conversation and Poole’s motive in coming, he Said, was to see what was going on. He said he was going to watch what was going on in the adjoining field. Later he told the witness that they were plowing hart of the time on the run. He was agitated and showing it in his eyes in which he had a wild look. -77--77-

“In'l9oß, I met him there again and he told me his purpose was to come out and investigate on the sly/* the witness said. _' \ The witness told of Poole’s manner at other times. He said that he had a lack of congruity. He would talk to you and in the middle of his conversation, break off and start another, subject, he said. He said that if Poole was perfectly calm he would talk coherently, but if he was agitated, he would change repeatedly from one thing to another. He stated that always when he talked with him, in the course of five years, Poole mentioned something about someone having something! against him. The witness said that he tried to argue that they were not against him, he would become agitated and mentally worked up as soon as anything pf that sort was mentioned. The witness said that-he often saw Poole talking to himself. The witness stated that he tried to talk business to Poole last Saturday but that the attempt proved useless. - “He would walk along talking to himself,” Mr. Infield said, “then stop suddenly and appear to be listening. He was apt to turn around and go back the way he come as to continue.” The defense asked the witness if he thought Poole sane, or not, the state objected and the court sustained the objection. Asked concerning the conversation he had testified to, Mr. Infield stated that he positively thought Poole of unsound mind. The defense then excused the witness. »’ : >.< .■ - After a short recess Judge DeHart stated that the defense could ask Mr. Infield if he thought Poole of sound or unsound mind on December .12, 1909, the day Joe Kemper disappeared, and the witness stated that he believed him of unsound mind. Mr. Hall then took the witness for cross examination for the state. Mr. Infield calmly held to his former testimony and never once became “rattled” He was excused by the state and after a few questions from Mr. Barce he was discharged. Judge DeHart then adjourned court until 10 o’clock Tuesday morning. John F. Dryden, founder of the Prudenial Insurance Company of America and at the head of it practically all his life, a former member of the United States senate, and a multi-mil-lionaire, died at hte home in Newark, eration a week ago.
