THE POWER OF WATER.

Constantly Working In One Form or An
othor to Destroy tho Land.
southern engineer contributes an
article on Geology and the Mississippi
Problem" to the Engineering Magazine.
In it he says:
ave find in water the only tirelcss
agent that works in tho modification of
continents; and instead of being the
great renovatoY of the land, as it is
popularity conceived, it is the great de-
stroycr. Tho destruction of arcient
Rome has been attributed to time. But
it was due simply to the moisture of
the atmosphere working through
chemical agencies. 1t was water, in
visible, but penetrating even the very
stones of the wonderful city, that
caused her to crumblc into ruins, and
gave to modern Rome q grade greatly
elevated above her ancient grade. But
it works not alone in the cities and
towns. There is not q hill on earth
that has not been shorn of something
of its altitude by this subtitle force, and
there is not mountain On earth, if not
iitfully renewed by volcanic action,
that Inns not been compelled to lower
It's peak before this universal le7elcr of
tao exalted. It may rbe n dreadful
thought. indeed, but we do not know
absolutely that we are not dependent
on the earthquake and the volcano for
keeping our continental habitat above
the level of the ocean; for water not
only destroys, but ithas the persistency
pnd force to carry Off to it's burial place
in the sea all that it has caused to
perish. 1t may take along time at it's
task, but, working either in it's gaseous,
its liquid or it's solid form, it seems to
be the most persistent thing on Garth,
never pcrishing, and, however divided
and invisible at times, always ready to
unitelits forces for supreme effort ut
the degradation of continent"

RUNNING me GAUNTLET -
A Young American Girls RooIhArdJ Fess
In Sc. Petersburg.

"A Young American Girls RoOIhArdy Feat
~ Ia Sc. Petersburg.
A military punishment once prevalent
in Europe consisted in compelling the
offender to run between two files of
men who stood facing each other, and
who were privileged to strike him as he
passed. The gauntlets upon the mems
hands being bullet-proof, of copper or
steel, often made the punishment very
severe.
Whenever girl voluntarily places
herself in position to draw forth un-
favorable comment. she may be said to
run tho gauntlet. Seldom does she es-
cape unScathed.
"A few years ago, according to Youths
Companion, an uninitiatcd American
girl, walking in st. Petersburg, wished

would be necessary to pass 4 certain

The words were hardly uttered before

Where Marriage Comes High.

that, GENES pretty high" That young
man o7ght to live in Spanish Honduras
for awhile, and he would not talk so

to be twice married before the knot is

The religious marriagc.is equally ncc-

4 Dainty Dinner Tnhle.

Nothing could have been prettier or
more dainty than the table which a Pa
risian hostess arranged with her own
hands for an informal little dinner
which she gave. When her friends en-
tered the dining room. she asked laugh
ingly whether she would not be able to
make living as florist, for indeed
none else than a person endowed with
the most refined of tastes could have de-
vised anything quite as lovely as was to
be seen there on that night.
No heavy gold or silver surtout, no
top heavy epergne loaded with fruit, OBJ
structed the view. but on the fine cloth,
edged with venetian point, were Il sue
cession of tiny baskets of spun crystal, in
which delicate snowdrops nodded their
little green crickcd necks. A narrow
white MORE ribbon was tied in windmill
bows to the handle of each basket, and
meandered all over the table, caught up
now and again with IL cluster of pale yell
low and pink flowers. To make the illu-
sion more complete, Il flight of white and
yellow butterflies, fastened to invisible
wires, hover, d over the flowers, and so
true to nature were these velvety in
sects, trembling and glittering above the
table, that the first impression was that
they were alive.

Cleanliness Saves Life.

With the approach of hot weather the
question of clean, healthy surroundings
one that must command the attention
II every one, and especially in view OF
;he fact that reports have been published
that cholera can always be prevented by
Keeping things clean. The physician
should be the preacher of cleanliness. for
cleanliness saves more lives than all of
he drugs known to us. This includes
body cleanliness as we'll as that of sur
,oundings. Use water, dcodorizers and
iisinfectants steadily through the hot
season. There is sanitary condition of
)ur bodies as well as orr surroundings.
Bad matter is continually cxuding from
he pores of the skin, and if this is not
washed off frequently it will become the
breeding place for disease germs. Fatal
germs are in dust dirt and particles that
aOat in the air. These cling to the body,
and under the warmth of the heat from
bhe body they multiply.
Many who are filthy get infectious dis
eases, while those who are clean escape.
1t is the safest protection that one can
obtain to surround the body with clean
skin. Our surroundings must also be
clean, sweet and pure. Filth creates in
fictitious atmospheric conditions that baf-
fle the wisest sanitarian, and every cpl
aemic begins in dirt. Decaying animal and
vegetable matter, imperfectly cleansed
clothing, person or bed, are all breeding
places for diseases that may in time be-
come epidemic. The physician should
work to prevent all of this, and every one
who has the good of his country in mind
should aid him in trying to keep the sur
roundings of the community clean and
sweet in hot weather.-Yankee Blade.

CAMPAIGN OPENS MONDAY

The campaign will be opened in
earnest in this State on next Monday
evening, when the Democratic standard
bearer for governor, Colonel O'Ferral,
will speak at Eastville, Northha ~ pton
county. Under the direction of Chair
man E|lyson, who conferred with
Colonel O'Ferrall at Staunton the first
of the week, the work will be vigorously
pushed until big majority is rolled up
in favor of the able statesman in
November next.
The Republican party has practically
dropped out Of sight in this campaign
and the only opposition to contend
against will be that put up by the
Populists who will formally commence
operations at the same time.
Colonel O'Ferrall's work for the ten
days following his opening effort will
be exerted in the first and second dis
tricts, while Hon. Robert c. Kent, the
nominee for Acknowledgements, will
at the same time be canyassing the

Though there are G,000,000 acres in the

PERTINENT POLITICAL POINTERS.

The President is again in the hands
of the doctors-at least he was yester-

cine. On the contrary he gave them
some OF his own, sugar coated, in the
form OF speech, welcoming them to the
national capital and opening the Pan
American Medical Congress. Rich

Senator PETER has introduced to the
kindly-or unkindly rather-considera

a TRIBUTE TO MR.. WATTS.

To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMEs:-The
enthusiasm and unanimity, throughout
the entire senatorial district, which
marked the nomination OF our distin.
guished young standard-besrer, j Allen
Watts, was compliment as rare as 1t
was we'll merited. Tho beautiful and
touching illusions to Colonel William
Watts, the candidates father, by my
gifted friend, A. p. Staples, in his elo-
quent nominating speech was received
with shouts OF applause by every Vir-
ginian present who holds in reverent
and atfectionate remembrance that race
of English gentry who added to traits
inherited and transmitted from their
British ancestors a love of freedom and
passion for the rights of the individua
born of the better days of the Republic
Colonel Watts measured up fully to
the standard of that ancient and
chivalric knighthood of Virginia gentle
men born OF the past glory of our high
and distinctive old Southern civliza-
tion. The literature of many lands is
rich with the tributes that gratitude,
admiration and love have paid to the
great and honored dead. These tributes
disclose the character of nations, the
ideals of the human race. In them we
find the estimates of greatness-the
deeds of lives that challenged praise
and thrilled the hearts of men, No
love, no admiration, no applause could
be so sweet to the soul as that which
springs up in his native place years after
this noble Virginlan has gone to his re.
ward in Heaven.
Allen Watts is worthy son OF noble
sire. He inherited those sterling ele-
ments and temper of that mold and
typeswhich wins social appreciation and
regard and upon which useful lives are
builded. His spec ches at tho bar dis
play an amount Of research and OF sus
tanned and penetrating thought which
compels the highest admiration for his
genius and his erudition as lawyer
There is nothing so strong, nothing SO
beautiful in sentiment as that tuition
given by contact with nature-that
which is friendly to virtue, to character
and the gentle aspirations of The heart.
Born here in this land of enchanting
scenery, Of beauty and of health reared
in the beautiful land of the mountains
with their sun-painted cliffs guarding
the marvellous beauty Of the winding
Roanoke, upon whose banks be could
stand in childhood and looking down
through its CLASSY waters SEQ heaven
below, and then looking up behold
heaven above, rejecting like beautiful
mirrors each in the other, it's moons
and planets and tremb bling stars; and
here he imbibed in boyhood those
qualities and intellectual tastes which
now find eloquent expression in his tx
allied and valiant manhood, and which
laid the foundation of an enduring rep
utation. JUNIUs FowLKEs
