THE SOUTH IN THE FUTURE

AS the probability of the pass
age of tho Force bill this session
tliminiShes, it appears as if tho
failure of this measure to become
law was the only thing needed
to give the final impulse to the
material prosperity of the South
ern States during the course of the
next twelve months. II the Force
bill were finally disposed of, the
South ,r"niI take 81 long breath OF
relief, and address itself with an
energy which would swell to en-
thusiasIn, to the accomplishment
of the industrial destiny, which
nature has marked out for it. AL
ready it brcathcs more freely as
the power of its enemies to OBJ
struct its progress merely appears
to decline, and the spirit Of hope
that animates it is rapidly grow
ing.
There is every reason why 1t
should, for at this time the bonnti-
fulness OF the crops promises TO
bring very large amount of mon.
ey into the Southern States, which
will stimulate every branch of
trade, lead to great activity in
manufactures, encourage the
growth of towns, and foster every
form Of development. The South
simply asks to he let alone. 1t
demands its inherent right to work
out its fortunes without hostile in
reference. Grant it this right un
tramelcd, and its advancement in
every element of wealth and popu-
latiOn will be so great that in less
than quarter of century it will
hardly be recognized as the same
country. In one generation the
South will have taken such an in.
slustrial position in the sistcrlood
of the sections that no party will
be strong enough to enact any
legislation intended to inllict dam
age upon the South alone. On the
contrary, i'll its firm establishment
in every element of industrial
greatness, its goodwill will be
courted and strivcn for, and it will
look back upon the period when il
was threatened with force bills as
belonging to a time in her history
which can never return.
The Southern people would not
be going too far if they INDUCED
the most extreme anticipations of
the industrial future of their sec
tion, for however cXtravagant
their anticipations may appear to
be they will not outstrip the real
lty. The natural resources Of the
South, which are greater than the
natural resources of any other
equal section Of the Republic, as
sure it Il destiny that has rarely
been cqualled and never surpassed
in the history Of any division OF
the United Statcs-Timcs.

WHAT BEAUTY is.


What constitutes beauty! 1t isn't the face
That would to an artist seem perfect with
grace,
Or might TO a poet be truly divine:
II isn't the form for which sculptors may pfna
1t isn't a Venus no matter how fair:
TITS not an Adonis, no matter how rare,
That makes US see beauty--the kind that i'm.
parts
Forever JOY to our minds and our hearts
What then, maketh beauty? A face NAV Ia
plain
Or even be ugly yet may it contain
something that makes us, without knowing
how,
See beauty enhancing and unto it bow.
What is it makes beauty. The ewes do that
shine
with love or affection or friendship divine,
Inc Ups do that smile from gladness inside
The LOOK that shows manly or womanly pride
What constitutes beauty The grasp of the
hand
That tells you are welcome wherever you
stand;
The ears do that listen with sympathy true,
Inc words that give comfort, that courage 70
new.
What constitutes beauty? Good actions do all
Ihe hands that will help you to rise if you fall,
the voice that is honest and CHEEKY and sweet
THESE only make beauty-forever- complete.

HOSPITAL CRUELTY.
Why Charitable Institutions Should No
BE Controlled by Politicians

Why Charitable Institutions Should Not
Be Controlled by Politicians.
Talking to doctor the other day
about the cruelty almost universally at
tributed to attendants upon the sick and
insane in charitable institutions, asked
him if in his opinion there was no rem
edy. ''The remedy is" he said. quite
ObviOus-get better class of people to
act as attendants. But it is easier to
state this than to bring it about The
fact that our county institutions should
be controlled by politicians is one of the
darkest spots in our civilization. Men
and women selected to wait upon the
insane have to be appointed by political
heelers. The appOintees have rarely any
qualifications for intelligent work of
any kind. What do they know or care
about the poor wretches intrusted to
their care? Not more than you or do
about the Patagonians! Before any
good can be done the condition of man
agement must be completely changed.
The State Board of Charities, or =
special commission should be appointed
to take charge of such public matters.
Travelling inspectors should move about
unexpectedly from place to place and
should be changed frequently that no
possible collision might ever be sus-
pected between any parties connected
with the administration. Attendants
should be trained for their work and
selected with as much care as the med
lcal officers. l am afraid that the ten
dency in all branches of the medical
and surgical professions is to lessen the
sense of feeling for suffering, and it can
not be expected that trained or un.
trained nurses shall be softer-hearted
than their professional superiors. Chi
