Solid Chunks Of Wisdom.

The Southern policy Of raising cheap
cotton and politics and paying high
prices for the wheat and meat of the
West, strikes the Hattiesburg, Miss,
Progress as bordering on the ridiculous.
With this as his theme, the Progress
editor cuts out wisdom in solid chunks
which it would be we'll for the cotton
planters of the South to consider. The
Progress says:
When the farmers of the South
raise wheat, wheat will go down;
when they raise meat, meat will go
down, and when they raise something
else besides cotton and politics, pros
perity and confidence will come in
wagon loads and be dumped over into
their yards. Not before. Fools and
free silver and gulping gold bugs can
never change the laws of nature. The
exclusive production Of cotton and
politics in the South will never pro-
ducc cheap wheat and meat in the
West. 1t is against nature and reason
and common sense, and yet some peo-
ple will fret and slobber and charge it
to the demonetization of silver or the
Dingley tariff bill or the election of
Mckinley, or to everything else under
the sun except their own cussed lazl-
ness. There are some people who
ought to be thrown into a mill pond
and the mill thrown in on them. They
growl so continually and persistently
that much of our respect for them has
been transferred to their dogs. Tie
farmers of the South should quit
sowing politics and grow wheat and
| meat and other things they can eat.
Their clothing would fit better in the
long run.-MoJile Register.

Old Things About RainboWs.

Did you ever see rainbow in the
west t? In discussing this curious
question, the Philadelphia Times gives
some interesting facts in regard to a
rainbow and how it is formed:
/. 1t is never seen except when the
sun is shining in one part of the sky,
and rain is falling in the other, or op-
posite part.
2. 1t is generally seen in the east,
because our showers come from the
west and pass off toward the east.
3. It cannot be formed in the east
except in the afternoon.
4. 1t cannot be formed in the west
except in the morning.
5. It is never seen at midday, be-
cause the sun is then above US, ano
we cannot, therefore, stand between il
and the rain.
Some of you may wonder why rain
bow is always mi-circular in shape
AS matter of fact, it is always {
complete circle, but we cannot see bu'
one.half of the circle, because tht
earth cuts off our view. If we were
poised in the air, high above the earth
we could see it all. The circula,
shape is due to the fact that the rain
drops are round, and that each drol
reflects but one color to our eyes. L
may strike you as u strange thing, bu
it is true, that no two persons see tn
same bow. That is because no two
persons can possibly occupy the same
position, and thus reflections fall diff
ferently upon their eyes.

Being a Baby.

Would you like to- be "the family
despot,' the "dear, sweet sugar
lump?" Just imagine it.
The baby is helpless, its ''cute lit
tie hands cannot assist in providing
the simplest comfort. The baby is
speechless, unless people can inter
pret it's cry.
Imagine you were asleep, and some
"pretty ladies' invaded your bed
room, pinched your dear little hands,
and smothered you with kisses, ex-
claiming, Its time to wake up. y
Then they picked you up and took you
to the window, and laughed and
thought it so cute to see it wiggle. "
You cannot continue to sleep because
some one else thinks it is time for you
to be dressed: and ignores your heavy:
sleepy looking eyes.
You would be kept sometime in a
hot, sitting dark chamber, and taken
suddenly into cool, airy parlor, or
out of doors into a strong light and
cool breeze. Every visitor must han
die you, shake you up and down, and
show their love for you by mouthing
your face and neck all overin canine
fashion. They even keep their mouth
or face pressed over your tiny mouth
and nose till you are half suffocated.
Sometimes these faces are hot and
moist, and impart "horrid taste to
your lips because Of the paint, powder
or other lotions with which they are
covered. Sometimes your lips are
made sore or tender by the face pow
der rubbed off on them. Some of these
mouths are scented with decayed
teeth or other disease.
When you are taken back upstairs
you miss the people and the light and
cry, and then you are trotted and
shaken till you stop crying for lack OF
breath.
When you are dressed, your head is
let to hang down lower than your body
till the very top Of your head is red
with the blood pouring into it. Oi
course, it takes long time for you tc
become comfortable after such an ex'
perience.
