The Country Calling.

Spring is the time of year
when every child who does not
live In the country wants to be
there, and when every child VII 0
lives Ia the country ought to be
thankful. Country children may
not enjoy some of the pleasures
OF their city cousins, but they
have joys OF their own which
cannot be matched anywhere
else. Ore of those pleasures
which they may not appreciate
as they should is that of seeing
things grow. There are, it is
true, very few places IN the
South where there is not some
thing green to be seen all the
year round. But this green may
be parched in midsummer and
dulled in midwinter. Along
about the time when most OBJ
iects out of doors are presenting
their bleskest aspect, the com
bination of rain and snow bring
swelling buds to the tree tw1gs
and causes a stir among the root
lets below ground Then there
is usually a cold rain, drowning
the songs of venturesome birds
and giving the lrr preston OF re
turning winter. But of a sudden
the rain ceases. the breeze blows
sweet aud warm, and the bleak
hillside Of yesterday is mass OF
tender green. while tlnt5 OF yel-
low, green and pink appear al
m )st as a haze I'm ong the trees
Things have begun to be alive
again. and the country girls ana
boys who use their eyes to good
purpose are gladder thau ever
that they, too, are alive.

Not Using Proper Care.

A man once said to the writer:
owe Yankees know how to fix
up things to sell. but you South
ern people don't We fix up
things in nice packages so they
will be attractive to the of pur>
chasers." We are sorry to adj
nit there is something in what
he said.
Some people will bring
butter to market with SO much
water in it that it will sour if
kept a week, or with Jumps of
salt in it that will remind you
Of the "br1ny deep" or they will
bring it in an old bucket with
no lid on it and expect to sell it
and are disappointed if they do
not. In gathering fruit for maj
ket It's often beat off the trees
with sticks SO tuat 1T rOts before
it can be used. IN many other
ways people fail to use the pro-
per care in preparing things for
market.
This want Of care is seen III
keeping bales Of cotton. They
are ia many cases kept at the
gin where they are not only
subject to be burned up, but
where part of each bale will rot
by laying on the ground. If car
ried home the bales are thrown
out on the ground instead Of be
ing put In a barn or under a
shelter. Farmers with plenty OF
houses or shelter room will do
this. Hundreds of thousands OF
pounds rot every year by being
handled this way.
We do not advocate holding
cotton, but if a farmer is determ-
ineG to hold cotton he should
have it sheltered even if he has
TO build a shelter to keep 1t un>
der. After you have done work
enough h to raise something to sell
YOU should see to It that 1t goes
on the market in good condition

Being Worth Knowing

A girl, ambitious, restless for
manV things, once heard two
sentences that changed hex life
They were these: "WOuld YOU
be known? Then be worth know
ing"
In a flash she saw how cheap
an ambition hers had been anG
how selfish. Who was she to
long for the friendship of hign
souls? Would she, as she was.
even understand their language?
In humility and sorrow she
prayed again no longer that
she might be kno vn, bat that.
in God good time, her own life
might grow s'rong and beadti-
full, that she might prove worthy
of all the bles ings that were
given her. Then since Cod in
his wis ION teaches us to answer
many of our own prayers, she
began to study, to read and to
think and to try to love greatly.
So yeals passed.
Did she become known?
Never as IN her girlish dreams
But she found something far bet
ter. For she learned that to be
known is nothing and 10 try to
be worth knowing that one may
be known is less than nothing.
but to lift ones soul to highest
living because one will net be
satisfied with lesser thing, IS {
task whose JOY deepeps with
every passing year and reach S
on into Gods eternity-Forward.

Monroe Sets The Pace.

The Durham people were the
first in North Carolina to build
a model library building and
stock it with al excellent supply
of good books for the use of
everybody in the city. They
didn't wait for Mr.: Carnegie to
furnish the money .but took it
out of their own pockets.
No town in the State except
Raleigh possesses a citizen who
mas presented so noble a gift to
his city as Mr.. r 3. Raney gave
to the capital OF the State in the
Olivia Raney Library-the best
aud most elegant library in the
South.
Charlotte has this week voted
to accept Mr., Carnegie's gift Of
$4,000 to erect a public library
III that P og1essive city.
Other towns in the State
notably Lenoir and Kinston-
have long maintained library
association and helped to devel~
op a taste for reading and furn>
ished books to meet the taste
created. But few towns have a
Ranev, Carr, or a Duke, and
fewer still can secure a gift from
Mr.. Carnegie, and SO the only
hope for public library lies in
the united action of all its Citi-
zens "a policy that even In
Raleigh, Charlotte and Durham
is necessary for maintenance
and growth Of the. Libraries al
ready established
Our Monroe correspondent
writes that 1.-The new graded
school building will contain one
large reading room tor the use
of the town IS u.e,' ds for tie
graded school," This idea
which we attribute to Prof
Brooks, is au inspiration II sets
the pace for other communities
Instead of a separate building, a
room in the graded school built

make it comparatively easy fo1
eVeTv town to MAINTAIN a public
library in correction with its
graded school, and we commend
the Monroe plan to the other
towns that have recently voted
to establish graded sCools or to
enlarge schools already orsaniz

libraries, most parents send their

OUR FISH HOOK.
From Fishing Gazette)

The outside of a large trout IS
often ruined in bro1llng before
the center Of the fish is cooked.
DO not split the fish down the
back. Take half pint of fine
grated bread crumbs and soak
them in little milk; squeeze
out the milk; add two ounces OF
table butter, a saltspoonful Of
salt, half a salt5poon of white
pepper. the juice of a quarter of
lemon. Add the yolk Of one
egg, raw, and mix.
An interesting event has oC-
CURED at the Fisheries exhibit
at the Buffalo Exposlon. While
attendants were making their
rounds the other day they found
tour baby dogdsh IN one OF the
tanks.
The mother Of the baby fish
vas one Of five which were sent
from Woods Hole, Mass, IN the
collection OF salt water fishes
collected by the United States
Fish Commission at that place,
The doghsh is one of few
species of ish that give birth to
its young, their offspring mum
bering from three to a half
dozen in a litter.
The young fish were about
four inches long, and were born
with q small sac on their sides
near the head, from which thev
derive nourishment for the first
week or ten days of their lives.
The mother was about three
feet long. The five tleh Of tLis
species which were caught were
the fist taken near Woods Hole,
and it is very rarely that they
are taken SO early IN the season, ,
as they seldom reach those
waters before the latter part OF
May. The young fish usually
arrive later in the season, when
from eight to ten inches Ia
length.
The eel is very unpopular with
many people; but like many un-
popular thi 1gs, he improves with
acquaintance. In form he is
long, slender and graceful, Ill
color dark green above, yeIlow~
ish white below. Many believe
that there are two distinct var
1otics, the salt and the fresh
water eel, but | am inclined to
think that, like all other fishes,
the eel partakes much Of the
nature OF his surroundings. A
long summer vacation In a pond
or brook renders him darker in
color, and daily feasting on land
locked delIcacleS renders him
more Corpulent.

AUTOMOBILE WELLS.
And some Other Expensive Novelties for Protecting the Complexion
 of Ladies'

Everything in dress seems to smack of the automobile these days. and now We have automobile yelling. which is much heavier than a chiffon yelling and finished with hcm-stitched edges. Besides looking very nice it has the virtues of being durable and of being a great protection for the complexion. One little shop on Fifth avenue has brought out this novelty together with many others of the more fancy sort, says the New York Sun.
 For the women who do not mind spending hundreds of dollars for veil. ing in one season, there is chiffon veil hemstitched all around by hand in the daintiest manner Many fancy effects on white mesh yelling are made by using large fat dot nf white chenille with the tinlest litt's dots of black chenille half way around it.
 Again there are punches of grapes in white chenille dots with little coil stem done in black silk thread The newest thing in colored chiffon yelling has a medium large dot of vel vet matching the color on one side and white on the other
