The Wealthy Can Practice Economy.

It's all very we'll to talk about economy
and the duty of being economical, but
the truth is, and the mischief of it is,
that the very persons who are poor
enough to need to practice it are the
very ones who can't. 1t takes person
of some means to practice economy.
Let us see. There is that beautiful little
maxim about the best always being
the cheapest. 1t is, too. But it takes
money to buy that best-cheapest
to begin with, you see. The successful
practice of economy demands a financial
consideration of things in that ''long
run" that somehow is supposed to offer
such marvellous advantages to him who
runs well and manfully. But the
trouble is that the equipment of the
very ones who ought to enter for the
benefits of the "long rum is not suffi-
cient to admit them, for it takes capital
to enter. To illustrate: You know per-
fectly we'll that $40 suit of
clothes would be cheaper at the last
than $25 suit. Your theory OF eco
nomics is perfectly sound. And your
theory of the superior comfort and ad-
vantage to be got out of the $40 suit is
just as sound. But-you have only $25
to squander on that suit of clothes. The
economy of the $40 suit would be de-
lightful, but you can't afford it, you see.
So with Housekeeping, as every wo-
man who knows anything about it will
tell you. 1t is cheapest to
buy only the best of everything,
and to buy in large quantities instead OF
small ones. Yes, surely. But the dol
lars OF most persons come to them in
small quantities instead of large ones.
Hence these tears-and these petty ex-
travagances. Frankly, we are extrava-
giant, are we not, my friend, you and I?
We cannot afford to be economical, can
we?-[New York Sun.

HE WAS MURDERED.
An Alleged Cable Car Victims More
Tragic Death.


SAN Francisco, August 4.-James

Death of Elizabeth Sands-The Last Of
the Old Defenders.
BALTIMORE, August 4.-Mrs. Elizabeth
Sands, probably the Oldest person in
Baltimore, and the last Of the Old De-
tenders Association, died yesterday, 101
years of age. Mrs. Sands was born
March 7, 1889. In 1906 she married
Peter Smyck, jeweler, who joined the
army to repel the British invaders in
1872. While in Annapolis he con-
tracted fever, and his wife, with their
four children, went down to nurse him.
She remained in camp, enduring all the
privations of soldier and ministering
to the wants of all the sick.
Her husband never recovered, but
even after his death she continued with
the army as nurse. She outlived all
her children, the last one dying six
months ago, at the age of II. She will
be buried with military honors.

Good Sense in Diplomacy.

The revelations of the New York
World concerning the Bering sea nego-
tiations, while perhaps not giving the
whole truth, certainly indicate that the
matter has reached an acute stage, and
that good temper and good judgment
are now more needed than jingoism and
bluster. The interests of the United
States cannot be advanced by empty
boasting, and now that the lingo posi-
tions appear to have been abandoned
the troublesome question can be settled
without impairing the good feeling OF
either Great Britain or America.-[St.

Whereas this section of our coun-

therefore be it
Resolved, That we have in Hon.

Justice, and that we respectfully and
earnestly recommend to the State

by the voters at the ensuing election.
End. That he is a jurist of pro-
found learning, a lawyer OF fine in
sight into the intricacies of the prin-
ciples of law and equity, and in our
opinion would be valuable aid and
an efficient officer in such position.
He is lawyer of large experience, is
patient and an assiduous student, he
is known and recognized throughout
the whole State as one of the best
and most efficient Judges who ever
rode circuit, and ifelected to the high
honor asked for him. he would per-
form the duties with the highest in
tegrity and ability.

The Roanoke & Southern.

We take the following from the
Roanoke World ''In a talk with
some of the directors of the Roanoke
and Southern railroad this morning,
the World reporter was gratified to
learn that the progress of the road
was very satisfactory. The engin-
GERS are surveying the line as rapidly
as possible and there is not the least
doubt that work on this end of the
line will be commenced at an early
day. In North and South Carolina
the people are anxious to have the
road extended through those States,
and as soon as the entrance into
Roanoke is determined it's extensions
towards the South will be indefinite
According to the views of the gentle
men talked with, the road will reach
here from the north on Common
wealth avenue, after running down
Lick run for some distance There
are SO many theories in regard to
this matter that it is very hard to
determine where the road will be To-
Gated /"
