industrial wealth and power it is only
necessary for us to know that the np-
pOrtunity to accomplish great things is
in our own hands. Let lis take a,lvan-
tage of and utilize this knowledge by
",r own cNertionS. If ai. the cotton
produced in the South were converted
into textiles by Southern mills. this
section would at one long stride br far
in advance OF others in the march of
material progress. The South has the
cotton in her fields. and it can be passed
into her mill doors without putting it
ON Il train OF boat; She has water power,
wood and coal, brick. clay, building
stone Of all sorts. and her land is still

that is needed of il for factories: it is
easier for operatives to live in he South
than it is in the North rents are cheap

less need for fuel t" keep the honses

the LODGE CORNER.

The criticism of the system OF frater.
nal insurance which continually comes
TO our ears makes us tired. Mostly IL
emanates from men claiming educa-
tlon as a foundation and experience as
the supporting walls for the confidence
they have in their own ability TO criti-
else, and as a reason why their criti-
csm should be accepted as law. We
admit that the work of fraternal in.
surance in the beginning was crude
almost TO ignorance, and that il has
now reached the condition Of science
which officers TO be successful must
learn, but we deny that these orders
have ignorantly drifted these thirty
years OF their existence and that they
are no better prepared to grappe with
and solve the great problems Of protec-
tion than they were at the beginning.
If fraternal orders had simple, cheap
insurance, or more accurately, protec.
I on at cost, as the object and reason
for their existence, they would have
solved the problem long ago to the sat
isfacton even of the self-appoincd
critics. But the orders have other aud
equally important problems to solve.
and right nobly are they doing their
work Fhe problem Of the Golden
Rule, the relation of man to man re.

Clocks OF Bygone Days.

In the town of Schramberg in the
Black Forest district OF Wurttemberg,
Germany where one OF the chief indus
tries is clock making, there has res
Gently been established an interesting
museum of timepieces. The collection
displays the gradual development in
the making of clocks for many cen
turtles.
Among the cmiosities are many of
great historical value. There is an
alarm clock constructed in the year
1850 for the use of travellers. In form
1t resembles lantern and the interior
is designed to hold lighted candle.
The candle Is slowly pushed forward
by spring, which also controls the
mechanism of the clock. A little pair
of shears clip the wick of the candle
automatically every minute TO regulate
its light. The lantern is inclosed with
movable slides, so that the sleeper is
not at first disturbed by the presence
of light.
The alarm is set by inserting u peg
i'm the second dial plate. When the
required hour arrives, the alarm is
sounded and at the same time the
movable slides fall, flooding the room
with light.
Among the curiosities is a Japaaese
saw clock. The clock itself prHitces
the motive power by descending saw
formed strip of metal. the teeth of
which operate the wheel of the clock
work, In another Japanese clock the
hand is attached to a weight, which
sinks once in ~ hours. The time is in
dictated by "a hand on the perpendicular
scale. Chicago Times Herald.
