While on our earthly pilgrimage the world has
many woes for US;
We struggle on beneath our loads of trouble,
care and pain,
But the latest tribulatiOn is the man who al
ways goes for us
With documentary evidcnce-statistics on
the brain.
He'll tell within Il fraction the exact amount
of coffee drank
For thirteen generations back in both the
hemispheres
Whatever else you want TO know he'll gladly
bite you off u chunk
OF tabulutcd knowledge that's enough to
start the tears.
He will tell how many gravcstoncs are export
ed by the nation,
How many pairs of shoestrings and the guam
tity of rum,
And he'll figure in jitfy the earth's total popu-
laton
From the time it created to the day Of
Kingdom come.
Would you know how much tobacco is con-
sumed in every minute,
How many yards of calico it takes to clothe
the south?
just ask the statistician; he will tell you he is
"in it,"
He performs it with his pencil and proclaims
it with his mouth.
He's a daisy with statistics, and if you'd like to
try for
A plan Of sizing up the man who figures with
such vim,
Just set him down and count him one, add
cipher after cipher,
And be sure to place the ciphers at tho left
hand side Of him.
The time will come when men shall have suff1-

When there'll be an accidental case of didn't

And the fiend will quit his figures in the mid

No one fulflls the plan of his creation ..
Who cannot say
That he has led one soul from willful blindness
Into the day.
..,... With wisdom crowned
And see brother lie in human weakness
Low on the ground.
We cannot reach the blessed land of promise
BY one swift flight,
But step by step, not halting in our weakness
We reach the light.
If we but make a ladder Of our failings
And round by round
Climb up, a helping hand outstretching,
Rest will be found
Our welcome will be warmer at the ending
If it be known
That we have helped some struggling, faintinp

Peculiarities of the Letter 0.

The letter q is superfiuous alphabetic
character-a nondescript of the worst sort,
and of no more real value in expressing or
helping to express our thoughts in writing
than one of the Chinese word signs would
be. 1t never ends an English word and
cannot begin one without the aid of the let
ter u, being invariably followed by the last
mentioned letter in all words belonging to
our language. The man doesn't live that
can tell the why" of the peculiar relation
Of the letters q and u, or why the former
was given its curious name. Some argue
that its name was applied because OF the
tail or cue at the bottom of the letter, but
the original q, when sounded just as it is
today, was made without the cue, the char
acter much resembling the English sign
for pounds (e).--St. Louis Republic.

IN PICTURESQUE PERTHSHIRe.
Mr.. Gladstone Spends His Vacation a
Blackcraig Castle.

Mr.. Gladstone Spends His Vacation at
Blackcraig Castle.
In THE Fair Maid of Perth" Scott de-
scribes Perthshire as the fairest and most
picturesque of Scotch counties. Mr. Glad
stone evidently agrees with the great novel
list, for he chose to spend his vacation this
year at Blackcraig castle on the banks of
the Ardle, a retreat which he selected be-
cause of the beauty of its environment,
aided somewhat in his choice perhaps by
the fact that with postotlice and telegraph
only a mile from the gates communication
with the ends of the earth is merely mat
ter of a few minutes.
The castle is an old looking structure,
though it is really a modern building, dat
ing only from 1913. 1t was built by the
late Patrick Allan-kraser after plans and
ideas of his own and under his own super
intendence One of his notions was to pre-
serve all rough and weather beaten stone
surfaces as much as possible, the more
lichen covered the better, and these were
| invariably turned outward in the walls,
the result being a structure that looks a
hundred years older than it really is, a de.
fusion that is assisted greatly by the ivy
which has taken so kindly to the walls.
The rooms of the castle are for the most
part small, too much space beng given up
to spiral staircases and lobbies. The draw
ing room, however, is spacious enough,
high in the ceiling, well lighted and hand
some. The dining room, in the basement,
is lower and somewhat less imposing. The
furniture of the house is all antique and of
foreign manufacture, and Mr., Gladstone,
who is somewhat of a connoisseur in such
things, expressed his appreciation of it.
The garden is not at all pretcntious, but
has sundial which shows the difference
between Blackcraig and Greenwich time
The house is barely a stones throw from

than most men now anticipate 1t is
hard to tell whether Orchid Joe,1' as
he is called sometimes in England, was
only joking the reporters or whether he
sincerely holds the roseate views ascrbed
to him, but il such amicable sentiments
could be guaranteed to result from all Tin
ternational marriages the comfy of ma
tions might be greatly promoted by en-
couraging foreigners to espouse our Amer
lean girls. 1t is to be feared that there has
been somewhat of n sentiment here against
such a course. Now, however, that we
have seen how much good may come of it
we may have to revise our opinions.
Nh Chamberlain is tolerably well known
in the United States as the English fisher
| les commissioner who came over here in
| 1887 to negotiate treaty and returned the
| following year to marry the beautiful
daughter of Mr. Endicott of Massachusetts,
President Cleveland's first secretary of war.
His popularity in Birmingham, which he
represents in parliament, the immense for
tune he made there in the manufacture of
screws, his prediction for orchids and his
, desertion of Gladstone were all sufficiently
exploited at that time, and his political
career has been watched with more or less
curiosity since.
The records proclaim Mr.. Chamberlain
to be 81 years of age, but he does not look
it, though he has "A slight stoop in the
shoulders His features are fine and clean
cut, and he still sticks to the monocle and
side whisksrs that old pictures of him
made familiar and has the same imperturb-
able air and impassive demeanor His
manner is coldly courteous, as is the habit
of successful men, and his heart does not
go out to our great, free people, after the
manner of leading men in other lines who
come seeking advertisement and dollars.
His son a ssin, who accompanies him, and
who is also in parliament, is a younger copy
of himself, monocle and all.

the highway, but is quite secluded because
of the number of sturdy trees about the
place, which, like the house, look older than
they are, every one of them having been
planted since 1S47. One of the curious fea-
lures of the place is a bridge which spans
the Ardle which is surmounted by a cas-
tellated house with a transverse archway
beneath it for "A carriageway. This bridge
is of later date than the house, having been
finished only in 1885. Some of the stones
used in its construction are IL feet long and
feet in width. They are of peculiarly
hard granite, very difficult to work, and it
took strong force of masons working con
stantly four years to complete the struc-
ture.

Atlanta, of which even detailed state
ment fails to convey any adequate concep-
ton. Fifty years ago there We're not more
than dozen families residing within the
circle of nine miles that forms the city lin
its. Today there is a population of 10000
souls living within that area, and it is the
boast of Atlantans that a larger proportion
of the citizens are handicraftsmen than in
in any other city in the south.
Atlanta was not Atlanta in 1S43. 1t was
Marthasville and was so called in honor of
the youngest daughter of Governor Wilson
Lumpkin. The name was changed four or
five years later when the town was reincor-
porated, having outgrown its village char
ter.
From the outset Atlanta's record has
been one of progressive growth. At the be-
ginning of the war she was a busy city of
perhaps 10000 inhabitants. At the close of
the war she was scene of desolation and
ashes But she never put on any sack
cloth nor did any wailing. She just went
to work, and the splendid city of today
with it's imposing architectural piles of
brick and mortar, stone and iron, churches,
schools, public buildings, and above all,
its business edifces, is the monument to
her success.
The historian and the historical student
OF future ages Will md few problems more
perplexing than the rapid growth of Amer
lean cities OF the present day. The co-opera-
tive enterprise that has created simultane-
ously several scores of magnificent centers
of civilization cannot fail to remain mat
ter OF wonder The history OF Atlanta will
not be without its effect on the general
problem, for it will be remembered that
the city of today is practically the out
growth of but quarter of a century OF un-
interrupted peace, progression and pros
perity. 1t will seem as marvellous in its
way as the story of Chicago after the great
fre-more marvellous when 1t Is recollected

able Growth Since the War.
Georgia's capital, the busy and prosper
Gus city of Atlanta, will celebrate on the
Goth of December the fiftieth anniversary
Of her incorporation as town. The proper
date of the event is the 23d, but it was
deemed best to advance it because of the
Christmas holidays.
Preparations for the celebration were in
augurated several weeks ago by the Pho
neers' association of the city, the member
ship of which comprises most Of the old
settlers who are still alive, including few
venerable men who were residents at the
time of the incorporation. Mr.. w. l.. CAL
houn, a prominent citizen, is president of
the association and directs the arrange
ments for the celebration. The chamber
of commerce and the Manufacturers as

the prospect is that the commemoration
will be in all respects worthy of the occa-
sion The programme as at present ar
ranged inclNdes a grand procession of the
civic and military organizations of the city,
with cars illustrating many of her indus
tries; number of addresses by prominent
public men and such other advertisements
as may be deemed appropriate.
The illustrative cars will have to be very
