A SuGGEsT1oN As the great pro

A Suggestions As the great prob
lem of modern society is how to secure
the honesty of car conductors, the rail
way authorities may learn how the
Turks manage. The conductor Of the
cars gives to the passenger a ticket,
bearing a number which is re corded in
the cornpany's books. A drawing
takes place once a month, the company
having provided a certain number of
prizes. The hope Of drawing a prize
makes the passenger anxious to send in
his ticket, and if the returns Of the con
ductor are not equal to the number of
returned tickets, his dishonesty is east
ly detected and he is at once discharg.
ed. This is a good plan for the Turks.
The plan we suggest is that our rail-
way companies pay the conductors bet
ter wages and give them fewer hours to
work.

NoRrH CAROLINA TOBACCO CRop.-
So far as this State is concerned the
tobacco of next season may be expected
to be short In quantity whatever the
quality may turn out. Many Of the
farmers of this section will plant only
a half crop, and some are putting in
ten acres of cotton as an experiment.
They say, unless you can raise the fine
yellow tobacco, an acre of cotton is
worth more than an acre of tobacco.

If we could leave this world behind
It's gains and loss, its praise and blame
Nor seeking place, nor fearing shame,

We might be happy, You and ],
And let this foolish world go by.
No paradise of love and bliss,
No dreams Of youth in Eden bowers,

Where all of life we would rot miss
But find some day sweet ere we die
Aud let this cruel world go by.
