that the ammonia mixture Is nonexplo-

How a Poet Writes.

That delightful talker, Sir Edwin Ar
mold, told an interviewer that he had in
his life written no less than {, 900 editorial
leaders, each averaging over half col
umn. That is nothing remarkable. Sir
Edwin Arnold is sixty years old. There
are numbers Of American editors who
write 1000 leaders year. But Eng
Hsh editors do not write as rapidly as
Americans.
One thing connected with his work is
remarkable, however, and that Is the
way In which Sir Edwin writes poetry.
His poetry will be read and quoted long
after Arnold, the editor, Is forgotten,
yet the poetry comes to him unsought
and Of itself. He does not grub and
grapple after it with pain and hunt for
rhymes In exhausting thought. Those
exquisite verses which have given his
fellow men 20 much pleasure hoat into
his brain Of themselves, unheralded, un-
expected, at all times and at any time.
When they come he "jots them down
in the rough" wherever he happens to
be, and later polishes them up at his
leisure.
Sometimes they hoat to him in the
midst Of editorial writing, and he ''lets
them come as they will" II he is writ
ing long poem he sets down what
comes to him each day and files the
notes away. This is the ideal way to
write poetry or anything else. It seems
TO Be the method Of that mysterious

For generations the Cherokees have
occupied their lands In common in the
Indian Territory, each family taking
possession of and retaining for its own
use as much ground as was needed for
stock. tillage or business. This is the
ideal state Of the school of economists
headed by Henry George, and It is in
teresting to know that under this sys.
tenn the Cherokees have become the
wealthiest individuals per head In North
America. Many attempts have been
made to induce them to divide their
lands In severalty and become actual
owners Of the land individually, like
the white farmer. Such attempts have
hitherto been always unsuccessful, but
now numbers Of Cherokees have fled a
petition in equity asking that II, 900, 900
acres Of their lands be divided into sep

ownership. Undoubtedly their petition
win be granted. There will then in the
next few years be opportunity to see
