SOME THOUGHTS ON BUSINESS.
durham sum

Within the pssat week or so severa]
very large failures have taken place
good men, with large business have
been pressed to the vail, We have in
our minds eye cue ia Macon, that
occurred Monday, dry goods firm
We are told that they had exception
al difficulty in making their coIlec-
tions, although good Judgment was
very generally usel in their credit
accounts. The old story.
This is the rock upon which many
honest, accommodating firms strike.
Hard collections. Creditors press
on them and they are compelled to
yield to the inevitable.
7 his is hard, After a man has
labored honestly; accommodated pat
rons when money was close with
them; and then Eave his bills rejected
or indiferently considered by those
who have profted and been benefited
by bis efforts anl risks-.t is hard
to see such 8 man become SO involved
that he must give up all and bear the
brunt of other peoples carelessness,
md ference and indlsposition to pay
him.
This idea Of business is all wrong.
Tire masses Of the people should re-
form along this line as much so as
anv other. Of course there are times
when pure chaser's inability to pay is
TOO plain for argument. But men,
and women, too, should be cautious
and not rush into debt without cor
pay day. It is morally
wrong to buy goods without a set,
determined effort to pay in a reason
able time. Short accounts make long
friends, and this should be borne in
mind bv every one. and it will prevent
many a good man from going to the
wall.
The argument, however, is not ali
on one side. There are some people ]

sucking what life blood they can get
out of every line Of business-walk-
ing, talking incubuses to every busl-
ness mans growth and prosperity.
Then, too, there ar business men
who are not discreet. For the sake
Of trade they credit promiscuous,y.
Risk all sorts of demands for credit,
and when they strike the class allud-
ed to- above tney simply give away
5heir goods and profits, With a big
bundle of bills and trouble attached |
n having a collector to wear out those
bills in tramping around and getting
but worry and walking.
Business is business. Every man
should have nue regard for the man
le deals with in order that confidence
md cash may be reciprocal. This is
he life of the commercial world.
It is good mstto to pay as you
20, and when ysu can't pay don't go
90 far. !

THE SOUTH WILL BE PROSPEROUS

There is not a shadow Of doubt in my
mind that the South wall be more
prosperous under the coming admin

wiped away. Cleveland $ administra-

Effects Of Cave Air.

The remarkable physiological Of.
tects OF cave air are we'll known. A
traveller who visited the Mammoth
cave in Kentucky says tia. on
emerging the sense Of smell was in
tensihed to such an extraordinary
degree that most common objects.
such as trees, plants, animals and
even people had strong individual
odors, mostly unpleasant. One tree
could be easily distinguished from
another by its characteristic .odor
The effect lasted about half an hour
and then passed of. The guides saw
that this is usual experience. Other
writers have noticed similar effect
from the sudden change from the
peculiarly oxygenated air OF the
cave to that OF the outside world.
The sense of smell is greatly intensi-
he'd in almost every case. This in
classification of olfactory perceptions
is explained by the rarity of olfactory
stimuli in the cave. On emergence.
in accordance with a physiological
law, the perceptiye powers for these
particular stimuli. having rested, are
intensified. 50 that doors too delicate
