Southern Planters.

The gentleman, indeed, has taken to
agriculture in the south Before the war
the whole southern social system rested
or the planter. There has been an in
sidious and noiseless industrial revolu-
ton since, but the planter remains the
main support Of the taxes. We have no
class among northern farmers that quite
answers to his He resembles more the
English country gentleman Of past
generation when country gentlemen did
not go to town.
All the same, it would not do to
count the planter out Of the scheme. He
is the most American farmer of them
all, barely excepting the New England
er, who is disappearing every year. He
furnishes a conservative, native born
influence Of immense account. A class
that still believes in God and women
and honor, that may be led astray by
hotheaded prejudices, bat can neither
be bought nor cowed, is class to be
valued, since it is as true today as in
Goldsmith's time that

On one occasion at Bournemouth Prin-
cess Maud went into shoe store and
purchased pair of rubbers, or, as the
English call them, ''galoches." The
storekeeper was little abrupt, and as
the rubbers were inexpensive he declined
to send them home. The princess ac-
cordingly carried the parcel herself, but
within a few minutes she was met by
one of her suit in search of her, and the
dismay of the churlish tradesman when
he heard who his customer had been can
well be imagined. He had, however, the
cool impertinence to place theroyal arms
with the crest of the Prince Of Wales
feathers above the shop window and in
scribed in large letters on the plate glass,
"Patronized by Her Royal Highness the
Princess Maud" This so Disguised her
little highness that she had a special in
junction served on the man, which re-
suited in his taking the arms, ETC., down.

Certain society girls have carried with
them constantly this season pretty little
ivory covered notebooks with gold PEN
ellis attached by means Of fine gold chains.
At any of the fashionable gatherings Of
the winter they would be occasionally
discovered in all sorts of out of the way
places hurriedly jotting down items that
excited much curiosity as to their ma
ture. Such secrecy was observed, how
ever. that only recently have the true
facts leaked out. Each book contains
965 pages-one for every day in the year
and under the proper date is neatly re-
corded every complimentary speech from
the opposite sex received by the owner.
If the girls compare notes, they will I'M
doubtedly discover many duplicates, and
many gallants will be at loss to ac-
count for sudden GOODNESS on the part
of some of their lady friends.-New York

YES; saw that you gentlemen looked at
my shirt. I know my degradation, and
YOU needn't be afraid of hurting my feel
ings. There aren't enough left to be
hurt"
The reporter sent him to the night city
editor. That gentlemen dived into his
pocket and produced a shining half dol
lar. The entire staff contributed, and a
small amount of money was realized.
The reporter who had first talked to the
stranger was assigned to go up to the lit
tie mans home and do what was best
with the money. AS if dazed, the man
inthe flannel shirt followed him.
A short walk brought them to his
home. Strewn over the sidewalk lay the
scant household goods of the family of
two. The reporter interviewed the land
lady, while the little man sat down III
one of his own chairs outside with a
blank look On his face.

meanwhile saying. why, they're the
most worthless lot around. They haven't

A cure For Rheumatism.

A well known member of the bee
keeping fraternity has been lecturing in
Northumberland on that particular form
of small industry to which he has de-
voted himself, and in the course OF his
address he dwelt not merely on the fnan-
cial but the hygienic advantages of
bee culture. He informed his audience
that he was the father of twelve chill
dren, all living, and ascribed this fact to
the liberal use of honey as an article of
diet, adding that he gets good deal more
money from the local doctor for honey
than the doctor gets from him for medi-
cine.
More than that, he has derived another
personal advantage 81 bees
in his complete free :Ssma-
a'tism, from which hes Sed,
and has no doubt th@sss e i'm
munity is entirely due to sI. Beneficial
influence of bee stings. We have heard
of people fagellating themselves, with
nettles, but the beauty of the bee cure is
that there is no necessity for any exer-
ton on the part of the patient.-West-
