SUNDAY

This soft sun-glorr melting thro' heavens
Like love-light thro' the azure of your eyes,
SNbdaes and melts my heart to tender signs,
rthatswe season fresh with morning dew,
I.ifes fragrant, toWery June,
%SpringinE to bloom on Sunday afternoon.
Let me recall, dear, with this lovers kiss,
Our walk from church on such a golden day,
Love'sradiant rainbow arching the-charmed
way,
Our hearts athrill with an unspokcn bliss;
Foo soon, alas! too soon
Passed that bewi1dering Sunday afternoon.
Do VOL, remember, sweetheart-that blush
Going to church upon a day more fair,
With orange blossoms in your red-EOld hair,
And the air musical with marriage bells?
Heaven held no richer boon
Than life, for us, that Sunday afternoon.
And blessed life has been thro' all the years
That we have walked together, heart to
heart,
Bearing of every burden each our part,
And finding our way StreWn
With heartseasc, always, Sunday afternoon.
For this oasis in the desert sands,
This peaceful truce between the weeks
stern wars,
This tender strain in life's discordant jars,
Strengthens our hearts and nerves our failing
hands:
Our souls are set atunc
TO heavenly music Sunday afternoon.
Here present, past and future strangely blend,
And life, illumined by th'eternal light,
Unfolds its mysteries to our cropping sight;
More clear appears Our beings aim and end
When, rising soft, the moon
Drops benediction Sunday afternoon.

were a pleasing scarlet, Then she went
up-stairs and began to pack her trunk,
for it was Saturday afternoon, and she
would take the 1920 p. m train for
home next day.
The little old trunk was not half large
enough now to contain her REINFORCED
wardrobe, and Jocasta was finally
obliged to apply her w avoirdupois,
as well as the weight Of misery Cypress
ing her, which surely was several tons,
in order to subdue the stubborn lid.
Then wheels were heard approaching,
and Jocasta beheld from her window
Jack come whistling up the drive.
l don't know much about subsequent
Developments, only that very night the
trunk disgorged its contents, and by
the next mail Mrs. Lockridge received
a letter from Jocasta that nearly drove
her insane by reason of her sheer
bewilderment.

THE NE" SOUTH.
The Glorious Dawn OF Pros
porous Era Breaking Upon fer

A Northern correspondent writ
ing from Columbia, South Carolina,
says
The song Of the b!ucb;rd is hoard
in the land, aud on every hand is
heard the note of preparatiorl for
spring planting. Year by year
the farmers are increasing the area
of lands cultivated, diyersIlying
their crops, using more and bet
ter class OF machlnery, and improv.
ing thcir farms and their co1dition
generally. Tariff, railroad treishts,
and oycrproduction do lot give the
true reason for the depression OF
New England manufactures. De-
velopmeut III the South iurn shes
the secret. Her people are paying
less attention to politics, and more
to their mate,ia. interests. They
arc diversifylng their indust ries.
and, instead Of remaining almost
solely an agricultural people. they
are turning their attention largely
to manufacturing.
In ante >bellum days the South
relied upon New England tor many
If the necessary articles she con
sumed. while she contcnted herself
with producing the raw material
from which they were made. Her
peoi % are becoming more cconom
ical and thrifty, and she now man
utactures many articles tor home
CONSUMPTION, while she ships and
probably completes in the markets
ofthe world with many classes OF
goods that she heretofore received
from abroad. In former times she
brought largely of shoes Of New
England make. Now almost every
Southern State has its shoe manu-
factories, with the latest improved
machinery.
In the manufacture of cotton
yarns and many grades Of cloth the
Southern mills now rival those OF
New England. The policy of
bringing the mills to tIs cotton is
proving eminently successful, as is
evidenced by the number Of fac
tories springing up all over the
South. This section was once. one
of the most profitable customers of
the New England mills but all this
is changed DOW. The new South is
manufacturing much for herself.
The South, too, is becoming the
seat OF many Of the minor manufac,
tories which were heretofore IN
known to her, and all Of which are
proving successful and rofitabie.
In few years more she will be dc
pendent on the North and East
only for certain classes of goods,
and for fine machinery. The South
and South west will become the
great manufacturing centres. Gil,
mate, abundance of raw material,
and other advantages render this
inevitable.
