duced a literature as warm, brilliant
and eloquent, as full Of intense senti-
ment, under favorable circumstances,
as that Of Ireland or Italy. The fertil-
ity of the South in exceeding eloquent
public speakers proves the gift OF the
race in the matter OF fluent and felici-
tous expression of thought and feeling
The explanation Of the literary barren
ness Of the South lies in its old political
and social system, which sent hergifted
men into law and politics as the only
road to distinction. The moral and
political philosophy which was preached
in defence OF slavery was unlrendly to
the growth of pure literature, which
must include the highest expression of
freedom in thought and action the po-
litical and social philosopy of the South
on the subject of liberty of the press,
freedom OF speech and absolute person
al liberty made her muse rise in the air
with the feeble flight of a wing-tipped
bird. The North, on the other hand
was able to feed her eloquent minds
upon the finest philosophy OF humanity
WHY ~ lllC DOubtl lllLaab hCGAo lEJC1bi 81
that the peculiar institution OF slavery,
while it paralyzed the natural melOdi-
GUS and poetic speech of the South,
warmed the comparatively cold nature
OF the North and tonched its thin lips
to eloquent appeal. Now that the war
is over, the natural gift OF the South for
literary expressions begins to assert it
self. Her leading newspapers are among
the ablest in the country; in the quality
OF rich humor and keen wit they out-do
the Northern press. The novels Of
Cable and the lady who writes under
the aoDs de plume of Charles Egbert
Craddock, are among the best fiction Of
the last fifty years. During the war the
South, and not the North, produced the
finest war lyrics. "My Maryland, =
"StonewalI Jackson's Way" and "a
Georgia Volunteer" are better than
anything we remember OF our own vast
wash of war poetry, as rejecting the
fiery glow OF feeling and heroic sentl
ment that filled the camps of both ar
mics in the first two years of the war
The piping of our popular war poetry
was the note of willow whistle, blowr
by girl, compared with the trumpe
call of these famous Southern lyrics
In our judgement this fine natural gif
of the South will some day bear fruit il
a literature of excellent quality.

cure for piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense Of weight in the back, loins and
lower part oi the abdomen, causing the
pltient to suppose he has some affect
ion OF the kidneys or neighboring or
gans. AT times, symptoms of indiges-
tion are present, fatulency, uneasiness-
of the stomach, etc. A moisture, like
perspiration, producing a very disa-
greeabe itching, after getting warm,
is common attendant. Blind, Bleed
ing and Itching Piles yield at once to
the application of DR.. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly upon the
parts effected, absorbing the Tumors,
allaying the intense itching, and ef-
fecting permanent cure. Price 80
cents. Address, The DIR. Bosanko

Beware OF anything that the maker
is afraid to own as his own. One reason,
among the great many others which we
could give why the justly famed Swift's
Specific has attained such a large sale,
is the fact that Mr.. Swift, the original
inventor, gave his name to it. This
wonderful medicine continues to grow
in popularity, notwithstanding the pa
pers are full Of the advertisements Of
lmltators and followers. Indeed it has
come to pass that this medicine is doing
good in curing those who have become
seriously affected from taking other
mixtures put up by nobody knows who.

on the Point of Her Parasol.
al would like so much to touch cloud with
my parasol." She was young and strong,
and for the first time in her life of l6 years
was in the mountains She stood on the
long, wide veranda of the hotel at Manitou
and looked up at the white smoky clouds
curling about the lower mountain peaks with
the eager, puzzled, questioning eyes OF a young
impulsive girl. To the left and in front OF
her the swelling, almost nrecipitous slopes
were bright in the sunlight. To her right
the low clouds were boiling down the noun
tain glen, shutting out the view of Cameron's
Cone and sailing along at a level that took
them squarely against the lower conc of Hia-
watha mountain Around this they moved
like a sailing vessel feeling its way along a
dangerous coast. Then they noated off with
tho wind into the space between the inter-
vening peaks and touched even the top of the
high hills in front Of the hotel. 1t seemed as
though she could in a short walk reach a
point where she could, in fact, touch the
clouds with her parasol.
The score of people sitting on the broad
porch of the hotel watched the young girl as
she climbed up the hill straight in front, and
watched her as she took the mountain trail
that led her through the light white clouds,
sailing along probably 1,5O0 feet above
them, for the people at tho hotel were at an
elevation some 200 or 800 feet higher than
the summit Of Mount Washington and tho
incline toward elevations 1000, 5000 and
1900 feet began not 100 yards away. With
their glasses they could see tho girl, as she
stood half infolded in the whitish vapor;
then, after another interval, they could sec
her beyond, she half emerged above the
line of those floating clouds So clear was tho
atmosphere that the cheers of tho voun0 ,,,er,
across the glen, at an elevation somewhat
lower than the one reached by the girl, could
be heard by her and those in tho hotel
