TURNING TO THE SOUTH

THE OUTSIDE WORLD REGARDS THIS AS
THE LAND OF PROMISE.
Commenting upon Tie financial con-
dition OF the South and its future pros
poets, the Atlanta Constitution SAYS:
The eyes of the outside world are
turned to the South as the land of
promise. The logic OF the situation
points to our immediate prosperity
and tho development of this section.
and it is safe to say that not on ac-
count of, but in spite of bad financial
legislation, we shall be the first to
feel the touch of good times. We
hope we have passed through the
worst of the depression and the bright
side looms up before us.
We have stated only u few plain facts
admitted by all close observes OF the
situation, and in our judgment they
justify the conclusion that we have
turned the danger point and are now
making forward on rising ground. II
we are mistaken then our mistake is
shared by financial and business ex-
perts in the Moth and in Europe.
From this time on there will be more
progress and development in the South
than in any other quarter OF the Union.

A FABLE FOR HARD TIMES.

Once upon time two frogs who had
been living in comfort and ease in a
cool pool of water were accidently
scooped up by pious milkman in u
bucket of water, which he poured into
his can in order to give his milk more
body and thereby increase his revenue.
The frogs were astonished to find
themselves in an unknown element in
which it was not possible to support
life, and they had TO kick vigorously
in order to keep their heads above the
milk. One of them, being dishearten-
ed by being shnt up in the dark ele-
ment entirely new to him, said: Lets
give it up and go to the bottom. It's
no use kicking any longer" The
other said: 'Oh, no. Let's keep kick
ing as long as we can and see what
the outcome will be. Maybe things will
change presently" SO one frog gave
up and went to the bottom. The other
kept kicking. and when the pious
milkman got to town and opened his
can. behold! the frog had kicked out a
lump OF butter large enough to float
him, and he was sitting on it very
| comfortably.
| Moral-in hard times never give up
but keep kicking. Chicago Ledger.

Treasured thoughts.
BY MISS SADIE SHAM ROCK.

Written for Iuka Reporter.
This saddened heart of mine
A thought of thee, oh, dearest one
Comes like thing divine.
Although loved ones are often near
With songs of gentle glee,
All me! they are not thine, and still
My sad heart turns to thee
Oh yes, love to muse on thee
At caves calm gentle hour
When winds go singing pleasant tunes
And kiss each dropping flower
And bright above the Holy stais
Are dancing in their glee
Then soft as Angels whispers come
Heart cherished dreams OF thee.
Oh. may your dreams be pure and bright
And sweet your balmy sleep
While Angels round your breathing form
Their Holy virgils keep.
Then soft as dew upon the flowers
May dreamIand watt to thee
Some tender tale of by gone hours
Some treasured thought OF me-
