One hundred years ago Il Mr.. Marr,
of Cape Elizabeth, Me, set out Il willow
slip. which grew To bc 4 good-sizcd tree.
Mr.. Mari was an obli%ing sort of per-
son, and he kept his Grindstone-ouc of
the few in that vicinity-undcr the will
low by the roadside for the convenience
of his ncighborS. Some of the neigh
bors were ungrateful yol<cls, for often,
when they had done grinding their
axes. they would try the blades upon
the shcltcring tree, SO that its beauty
was spoiled and its life endangered.
Then Farmer Marr drove n lot of spikes
into the trunk, covering the heads art
fully with bark, and when the neigh
boring vandals had spoiled few axes
they quit trying edges on the willow
Marr and his nciChborS are all dead and

spikes are grown deep in the heart of

Is the English language less adapted
to telephone communication than
others? Such question is somewhat
interesting Just now in view of the
fact that a Boston inventor claims to

ficiais of the crble companies take lit

bring forth many reasons for their be
lief that it is not practica blc, besides
this that the English Ian -un'rH is Il

phone wire
a gentleman who has been in the
tel phone business for years and who
holds an important position in the local
service, said 10 the reporter that one
reason why English Is baa telephone
language is that ii abounds in kissing
sounds which are very difficult to
transmit over the wire. Words Ike

Another reason given l. that the
English language contains a great
number of words of more than two

being much longer than is the case in
other languages, and that this inter

said he made confessions which prov

guilt OF similar crime, except mUr

SOCIAL LIES.

People talk about the wickedness Of

could be got along without in polite So
ciety," said a woman of fashion to a wri-
ter for the Washington Star. Imagine
for a moment an afternoon call, for ex-
ample, where both hostess and visitor
had cnu%scientiously made up their minds
to speak with entire ~frankness and truth
fulness.
Figure to yourself the mistress of
the house in the act Of entering the
drawing room. Instead of rushing i'm
p~ulsively forward and grasping the visi-
tors hand with a pleasant smile and
words expressive of pleasure at seeing
her, she simply says:
"'You ugly old thing, why on earth
have you come to bother me with a call
this afternoon?'

Thrashed "A Man Twice His Size.

The other day a small, harmless look
ing man entered a New York street car,
and accidentally trod on the toes Of a big
s~ix-footer. He apologized, but the six
footer wasn't satisfied. He talked for
some time, and finally invited the little
man TO leave the car and settle the matter
on the sidewalk. Greatly to his astonish-
ment, the latter accepted. Those who
witnessed the contest say it didn't last
long, but that the big fellow had to be
carried home in an ambulance, while his
diminutive antagonist walked away with
a cheerful smile. And so it is with DR..

The Century will take up the campaign
for good roads. The April number is to
contain a suggestive article on "Our COM
mon Roads," by Isaac B. Potter, editor
of" Good Roads" and a practical engineer.
The author points out the enormus
loss to this country through the present
general condition of American roads. a
loss which. falls not only upon the far
mer, but upon city people as well, who
are compelled to pay unnecessary prices
for having produce brought to them.
An American CONSUL in France reports
that the road system of that country (the
most perfect system in the world) has
been of greater value to the country as a
means of raising the value of lands than
have the railways" In France every
market cart, with its broad tire, is a road
maker.
Mr.. Potter's article is full of practical
suggestions for the betterment of Ameri-
can roads, and it is fully illustrated.
Ex-Postmaster- General James has writ
ten an article on "The Ocean Postal Ser
vice" for the April Century. Mr.. James
advocates a letter-rate of two cents an
ounce for ocean postage, and a reduction
in the rate on international money orders.
He thinks this reform more needed than
that of a lower rate Of postage on domes-
tic letters.

tural problems Of the Worlds Fair will

REFLECTS.

REUBEN REFLECTS.
REUBEN has been thinking this week
thinking of many things, and one of thu
questions which has most engaged hi
attention is that of the methods and mo
tiyes of existence as practiced and enter
tanned by some of the young men of this
city.
REUBEN says he cannot understand
how a young nan of active intellect and
vigorous health, with the natural ability
to make himself known where to be
known is a distinction, and his influence
felt in the community, can be satisfied to
put in his time loaing around drug stores,
flirting with such giggling girls as will
tolerate his presence, and indulging in
such other pastimes as are usual with the
professional time-killer.
REUBEN says further that the young
man who strolls around town with his
hands in his pockets, while his mother
and sisters are at home preparing his
meals and mending his clothes, and his
brothers at work trying to earn money
to keep the larder supplied and the col
lector from the door, is a sorry cuss and
that the sooner he concludes that life is
not worth living and proceeds to try
some other sphere the better for his family
and for society generally.
REUBEN explains that these reflections
are suggested by the fact that there are
some young men in this city who have
no professed occupation and who COM
plain that they can find nothing to do.
They spend their time on the streets,
either mounted on a goods box putting a
cigar and discussing the latest scandal,
or yawning over some busy mans office
fire, in the way of everybody else who is
better employed. These are the fellows
who intrude themselves upon social oc-
.casions; who raise disturbances at public
entertainments, as in the case of the Y.
M. c. A. sociable a few weeks ago; who
indulge in noisy demonstrations at thea
tres and who contrive to make themselves
altogether odious. These are also the
fellows who stay out late at night who
are impudent to their mothers when
questioned as to their whereabouts who
patronize Mangum's woods on Sundays
and who depend upon the family name
to carry them through every difficulty.
While, as THE GLOBE is gratified to
state, Durham has but few such as com
pared with other places, there are a few
fellows who could and should do better,
and it is to these that REUBEN wants to
talk. He says that he has observed that
the young man who is really in earnest
about trying to do something and who
an honest effort to help himself
can always get a job, and that to know
value of time is the first principle of
success in any field.
He has noticed, also, that it is not the
college-bred gentleman who gets
there in the race for wealth or distinc.
but the sturdy, determined, indus
trious fellow who fights for all he gets
and knows how to use it after her gets it.
REUBEN insists that the sight of strong,
able-bodied young men loafing around
The streets and complaining that they can
get nothing to do makes him tiled.
And The GLOBE says that REUBEN is
right.
