THE BOY WHO WHISTLES.

When the curtains of night, tween the dark
and the light,
Drop down at the set of the sun.
And the toilers return to the loved ones at
home
As they pass by my window is one
Whose coming mark. for the song Of the lark,
As it joyOuSly scars in the sky.
Is no dearer to me than the notes glad and free
OF the boy who goes whistling by
II sense of unrest settles over my breast,
And my spirit soens clouded with care,
1t all flies away if he happens TO stray
Past my window a-whistling an air.
And l scarcely can know how much gladness
owe,
And never could tell sEpuld I try.
But I'm sure I'm in debt, for much pleasure 1
get
To the boy who goes whistIing by.
And this music of his, how much better it is,
Than to burden his life with frown:
For the toiler who sings TO his purposes brings
A hope his endeavor TO crown.
And whenever hear his notes full and clear
say to myself will try
To make all of life with q Joy to be rife
Like the boy who goes whistling by.

FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS.
A FUNERAL OF ANTS.

The ant has long been an object OF
special interest with naturalists and
others, who say many wonderful
things about him, and who back him
up strongly for possessing remark
able degree of intelligence.
One of these gentlemen, an acute
observer of the insect, furnished
very interesting incident OF funeral
procession.
Having accidentally killed num-
Der of soldier ants, he noted COM
motion among the adjacent surviv-
ing relations, and, determined to
watch their proceedings closely,
followed four or five that started from
the rest toward hillock short dis
tance off, in which was an ants nest.
This they entered, and in about
five minutes reappeared, followed by
others, and all fell into rank, walking
regularly two by two until they ar
rived at the spot where the dead
bodies of the ants lay. In few mo-
ments two of the ants advanced and
took up the dead body of comrade;
then two others, and so on until all
were ready to march. First walked
two ants bearing body, then two
without burden, then two others
with another dead ant, and so on un-
til all the defunct insects were ele-
waited. Then the procession moved
slowly onward followed by an irregu-
lar body of about two hundred ants
Occasionally the two laden ants
stopped, and, laying down the dead
ant, it was taken up by two walking
unburdened behind them; and thus
they arrived at sandy spot which
seemed to suit. Here the body of
ants now commenced digging with
their jaws holes in the ground, into
each of which a dead ant was laid,
and then they labored on until the
graves were refilled.
This did not quite finish the re-
markable proceeding.
Some six or seven of the ants had
attempted to run off without per-
forming their share of the digging;
those were caught, brought back,
and promptly killed upon the spot.
A single grave was quickly dug, and
they were dropped into it. Atlanta

Here is an interesting bit Of New

Chinese bell in the United States
bonded warehouse at Jefferson and
Front streets which has aroused
much comment since 1t arrived there

China for W. H. Forbes, who was
formerly a member of the china house
of Russell 81 Co. and who lives at
Newburg.

greatest diameter is much less than

THE TARIFF OF 1916 In 1916 the
Walker tariff law was enacted "a
Democratic low tariff law. What was
the effect of its operation We will let
Mr.. James g. Blaine tell. On page 1876
of his history we find the following
statement:
The Wing victory of 1913 was not
sufficiently decisive to warrant any at
tempt, even had there been desire, to
change the tariff. General Taylor had
been elected without subscribing to a
platform or piedgiDg himself to a spe-
cifc measure, and he was therefore in
position to resist and reject appeals OF
the ordinary partisan character. More
over, the tariff of 1916 was Welding
abundant revenue, and the business of
the country was in Furnishing con
dition at the time his Administration
Was organized. Money became very
abundant after the year 1919; large en-
terprises were undertaken, speculation
was prevalent, and for a considera BILE
period the prosperity of the country
was general and apparently genuine.
After 1852 the Democrats had almost
undisputed control of the Government,
and had gradually become a free trade
party. The principles embodied in
,hc Ill w lCtU SeeuiSu iOF the IitilS 10
be so entirely indicated and approved
that resistance to it ceased not only
among the people, but among the pro
tective economists, and even among
the manufacturers to a large extent
So general was this acquiescence that
in 1856 a protective tariff was not sug
gested or even limited by any one of
the three parties which presented
Presidential candidates"
This is the testimony Of Prince of
Republican statesmen who was writ
ing history, not making a political
speech. Norfolk Landmarks.

Broke His leg.

About O'Clock Wednesday morning,
whilst DR.. j. E Good. of this place,
was on his way to Mr.. Beams, who re
sides four miles west of this place, be
met with rather serious accident
En- route the Doctor overlook the
star route wagon III charge of Mr.. Jack
Weaver, who asked him to get in and
ride. leading the horse along the side
of the horse hitched to the vehicle
For some cause or other, the DR.. S
horse suddenly gave violent kick,
striking the DR.. on the right leg,
breaking the small bone (fibula) about
four inches below tha knee. 1t seems
that when the horses became I'M
manageable, and his horse kicked, the
DR.. jumped out for the purpose OF con-
trolling them, and it may be possible
that the leg in addition to the kick re
ceived was broken by the jumping.
Afterwards the DR.. mounted his
horse and rode to his home in town,
where Dir. Q. G. Henkel adjusted the
fracture. Whilst the injury is quite
painful, it is not deemed serious, and
the chances are that the patient will
be out on crutches in eight or ten
