The fact that Paris, the cleanest city
in the world, has as high a death rate
as New York, the dirtiest city in the
universe, SO far as known, does not
prove that dirt is wholesome. It only
shows chat people born in Paris can't
stand as much as people landed in
New York.

FOR PROPERTY STOLEN.
Action by appellee against appellant to
recover the value Of certain property stolen
from his person while occupying berth in
one Of appellants sleeping cars, A sleep
ing car company is not liable as an inn
keeper or common carrier, but it implicitly
agrees to keep watch over its patrons white
asleep, and to take reasonable care to pre-
vent the theft Of his goods and money from
his person. The case of Nh occupant Of u
birth in sleeping car is similar to that Of
the occupant Of state room on steamboat,
and il has been held that a steamboat COM
pany is liable to such occupant, In the abb
sence of negligence and fraud on his part,
for the value of the goods stolen from him
during the night. 1t was found by the court
that two sleeping cars in the train were un.
der the charge Of one conductor, and that
he left the train in the night, and for eighty.
four miles there was no conductor in charge
OF the cars, and therefore one conductor
had charge Of four ears. Each car had a
porter, but he had duties which were incon-
sistent with his keeping watch over the oc-
eupRnts. These facts clearly showed negl-
gence on the part of the company. Wood.

10 take Florence and Perdlta
10 the country Of his old friend King
Leonard. knowing that the latter really
repented Of his former Ofenses and
would welcome him as his old friend.
Florence and Perdita and the old shep-
herd at once sailed for King Leonard 5
dominion, the latter being careful to
take Perdita's baby clothes and the paper
that was pinned to them. As soon as
Leonard saw Perdita he was startled by
her resemblance to his dead Queen, and
his grief breaking out afresh he lamented
the loss of his wife and the friendship
of his friend, good King Paul. The
old shepherd kept his eyes open, and he
soon made up his mind that Peridta was
no other than the lost Princess. He
related the story of how he found the
child, and showed the rich mantle, which
Pauline at once recognized as that in
which Queen Helen had wrapped the
babe.
Florence, Perdita, Lord Campbell and
Pauline were greatly rejoiced at the dis
coyery, and all but the King were SUI
premely happy. The good Pauline had
a surprise in store for everyone, which
served to end the story most happily.
The truth was, the Queen was still alive.
Pauline told the King the Queen was
dead simply to prevent King Leonard
from executing his terrible intention of
killing her. She hardly knew how TO
acquaint the King with this fact. So
she invented a plan which proved most
successful She told the King that a
noted Italian sculptor had lately finished
n statue Of the Queen, and she wished
! 10 show it to him. The statue, as may
/ be supposed, was the live Queen Helen.
As she drew the curtain aside the King
was startled at the expression and life
/ like appearance of what he supposed
was marble, and he could scarcely speak
so great was his agitation. At last he
/ told Pauline that he wished to kiss the
statue, and the Queen Helen, at signal
from Pauline, descended from the pedes
| tai, and, throwing her arms around the
Kings neck, prayed blessings on hel
husband and newly-found daughter Per
dita, whom she so long supposed
dead. The happiness of King Leonard
and all concerning this story was com
plete the more so, as King Paul arrived
at the palace, whittier he had come in
search Of his lost son Florence, Just in
time 10 witness the triumph of all con
nectel with the story.
This interesting tale was written by

Southern Cotton Mills.
New York Herald.7

New York Herald.1
Statistics just published show that
South Carolina now has 81 fourishing
cotton mills, with APO looms and 1907
72l spindles, and that the business Yields
an average net profit Of twelve per cent.
In 1880 there were in the State Is mills,
with 1888 looms and 95,938 spindles.
These figures show an extraordinary
progress in this important industry, and
the fact that nine new mills were char
tered at the recent session of the Legis-
lature, indicates striking growth of the
business in the future. In undertaking
to manufacture its great staple instead
of sending it to English and New Eng
land mills, the South has entered field
of industrial activity which promises to
prove most important source of pros
perity. Nearness Of its mills to its cot
ton fields is an advantage which in time
must tell strongly in favor of the South
in the competition with its distant com
petitors.

Marriage.
BY Theodore Parker.

BY Theodore Parker.
Men and women, and especially young
people, do not know that it takes years
to marry completely two hearts, even of
the most loving and well-sorted. But
nature allows no sudden change. We
slope very gradually from the cradle to
the summit of life. Marriage is grad
ual, fraction of us at time. A happy
wedlock is long falling in love. l
know young persons think love belongs
only to brown hair and plump, round,
crimpson cheeks. So it does for its
beginning, just rs Mount Washington
begins at Boston bay. But the golden
marriage is part of love which the
bridal day knows nothing Of Youth is
the tassel, and silken flower of love, age
is the full corn, ripe and solid in the
ear. Beautiful is the morning of love
with its prophetic crimson, violet, pur-
pie and gold with its hopes of days that
are to come. Beautiful also is the even
ing of love, with its glad remembrance,
and its rainbow side turned toward
heaven as well as earth. Young people
marry their opposites in temper and gem
eral character, and such a marriage is
GENERALLY a good one. They do it
instinctively. The young man does not
say, MY black eyes require to be we'd
to blue, and my oyerehemenee requires
to be a little modified with somewhat of
lullness and reserve" When these OBJ
posites come together to be wed, they
do not know it, but each thinks the
other jnst like himself. Old people never
marry their opposites, they marry their
similars and from calculation. Each Of
these two arrangements is very proper.
In their long journey these opposites
will fall out by the way great many
times, and both will charm the other
back again, and by and by they will be
agreed rs to the place they will 90 to, and
the road they win so by and become
reconciled The man will be nobler and
larger for being associated with so much
humanity unlike himself, and she viii
be nobler woman for having manhood
beside her, that seeks to correct hei
DEFICIENCIES and supply her with what
she lacks, If the diversity be not toC
great, and there be real piety and love il
their hearts TO begin with. The ole
bridegroom, having much shorter jour
ney to make, must associate himself Will
one like himself. A perfect and com
plete marriage is, perhaps, as perfect
personal beauty Men and women ar,
married fractionally-now small frac
ton, then large fraction Very few ar,
married totally, and they only, think
after some forty or fifty years Of gradu
al approach and excitement. Such
large and sweet fruit is a complete mar
rage that it needs very long summe
to ripen in, and then a long winter t,
mellow and season. But real happ,
marriage of love and Judgment be
tween man and woman, is one of tn
things SO very handsome that IL the SUI
were, as the Greek poets tabled, God
he might stop the world in order to feas
his eyes with such spectacle.

they secured the highest average

not in the least qualified for the practi-

With oh such wealth of golden hair,
Such eyes, such lips such--I dom care

Painters may blend their colors bright,
With rainbow tints and soft moonlight,
But never in their widest flight
Could they come near my Jessie.
Sculptors may chisel from the stone
Ideals that need but breath alone

Could ever equal Jessie.

So charming is beyond compare?

And only child my Jessie.

oLn GR1nrEs Is DEAD.

This famous ballad was written by A. G.
Green, born at Providence, r. l.,
1902, died 1868.
Old Grimes is dead, that good old man,
We ne'er shall see him more;
He used to wear long black coat,
All buttOned down before.
His heart was open as the day,
His feelings all were true;
His hair Il was inclined TO gray,
Re wore il in q queue.
Whene'er he heard the voice of I ain
His breast with pity burned.
The large round head upon his cane
From ivory was turned.
Kind words he ever had for all,
He knew no base design,
His eyes we're dark and rather small
His nose was anquiline.
He lived at peace with all mankind,
In friendship he was true;
His coat had pocket-holeS behind,
His pantaloons were blue.
Unharm'd, the sin which earth:pollutes
lie passed securely Ger,
And never wore pair Of boots
For thirty years or more.
But good old Grimes is now at rest,
Nor fears misfortune's frown,
He wore a double bTested vest,
The stripes ran up and down.
He modest merit sought to find,
And pay it its desert,
He had no malice in his mind,
No ruAles on his shirt.
His neighbors he did not abuse.
Was sociable and gay,
He wore large buckles on his shoes,
And changed them every day.
His knowledge hid from public gaze
He did not bring to view,
Nor make a noise town-meeting days,
As many people do
His worldly goods he never threw
In trust to fortunes chances,
He lived Gas all his brothers do)
In easy circumstances.
Thus undisturbed by anxious cares
His peaceful moments ran,
And everybody said he was
A fine old gentleman.
