Among the many Northern people
making investments in the south is a
prominent hotel man of New York, Mr.
Charles ST. John, who is owner Of the
High Point Inn of Port Jervis, N. V.
and owns the best conducted hotel in
the Southern States. the Pnev Woods
Inn. 1t is located at Southern Pines,
N. c.. and Is fitted up with every modern
convenience. 1t is built in the centre of
a fifty acre park of pines, and 1t is sur
prlsing how reasonable are the rates of
board. The best of accommodation, in
cluding private bath rooms, is much less
than what is charged by the majority of
hotels that furnish much less accommo-
daton, and this speaks we'll for Yankee
business ability and pluck. Southern
Pines is located on the Seaboard Air
Line, which has its headquarters at 81
broadway. New York. The Old Donn-
ion Steamship company is specially in
terested in connecting with this great
Southern Railway Conp panv at Ports
mouth, Va, and persons wanting to make
Il delightful trip to the South at very
small cost, are advised to go to Southern
Pines by the Old Dominion route Gen
eral information may he obtained at the
Old Dominion office in New York or at
:he S. A. l.. office 37I Broadway.
Mr.. St. John is only one of thosands of
good businessmen from the North who
have gone to the South and settled on
that live, progressive railroad the Sea-
board Air Line. which is offering more
inducements to business men than any
other road in this country.
Be sure to go via Southern Pines on
yo-r way to Florida as it is the shortest
route. For information write to J. T.
Patrick, Pinebluff. North Carolina.

1t would seem to be necessary to re-
wise the opinion freely expressed at the
outset of the war in South Africa that
the Orange Free State was merely the
dupe of the Transvaal that it's presi-
dent, Mr.. Steyn, was a colorless and
plant person wholly under the infu-
ence of Paul Kruger and that the Free
Staters themselves were not so hardy
or courageous or tenacious as the Beers
of the Transvaal. The ally of the
South African Republic has proved to
be an ally of equal merit in every re-
spect. Its spirit is typified in the spirit
of its two greatest men, De Wet and
Steyn himself. On the military side
De Wet has proved himself the most
notable of all Afrikanders. while the
feeting glimpses the world has had Of
Steyn, president of state and yet
sharing all the dangers and hardships
and desperate fortunes of De Vets
rowing band and on occasion leading it
in person, are sufficient to describe the
outlines of devoted and great char
acter.

looking toward the material improve
ment of the south in commerce and in
dustry He is a Confederate veteran
and was an eyewitness of the order of
things that passed away with the civil
war, and he appreciates fully the value
of the new conditions that confront the
south. He was born in Athens, Ca,
and was very young when he enlisted.
At Gettysburg he was severely wound
ed in the head. After the war he
went to Atlanta, and he has since re-
sided there. Since 1867 he has been
connected with The Constitution of
that city, of which paper he is the Off
cial head and chief owner. He has
many other business interests and is
possessed of rare financial ability. Colo
mel Hemphill has been mayor of At
lanta and could obtain higher political
honors if he desired them, for he is
well known throughout the state and,
indeed all through the south. He has
declined political preferment, believing
that his true work lay in advancing the
industrial prosperity of the south.
Colonel Hemphill is of stately pres
ence and one of the finest looking men
in the country. There is about him
nothing of the typical southerner, for
he looks like prosperous banker or
business man. He was the originator
of the successful fair held at Atlanta
some years ago and will take promi-
nent part in the textile exposition to
be held in the same city two years
from now. The object of this exhibit
tion is to set forth the advancement of
the south in that line and in others.

Longevity of the Twentieth Century.

Though perhaps few persons who
saw the dawn of the twentieth century
will live long enough to see the dawn
of the twenty first, it is a generally ad-
mitted fact that the span of human
life is perceptibly and steadily length
ening. The authorities all admit that
the average term of life during the
nineteenth century was several years
longer than the average Of the eight
eenth, and it is fair assumption that
the term will be still further extended
in the twentieth. The wonderful ad-
vances made in medicine and surgery
have contributed greatly to this end,
yet an important factor has been the
greater value placed upon human life
than in former centuries and the larger
development of that innate faculty that
gives love of life.
This love of life for it's own sake,
writes Mr.. Albert Turner, publisher of
Health Culture and an eminent author
lty on the science of longevity, is that
which gives what may be called nat
ural longevity, because it is inherent
and not produced by environments. The
result of its manifestation is a tough
ness of constitution and great tenacity
of life and an involuntary resistance
of disease and premature death by
force Of will and strong mental effort
to overcome all that has tendency to
shorten life. 1t spurs the conscience in
to activity and stimulates the will pow
er to assert itself for the promotion of
this end. 1t never yields to sickness or
disease as long as the breath of life re-
mains.
In every human being this "love of
life" manifests itself to degree. All
like to live; otherwise life would end.
for the elements must be contended
with. We must overcome the effects of
heat and cold and all the surroundings
that eudanger existence, and the degree
with which we do this is the measure
of the power Of this element for Ion
gevity.
In view of the fact that these condi-
tions have so important an influence
and also that they are capable Of cult
vation, concludes Mr.. Turner, let us
then take mental inventory and see
that we have in stock that which will
make for health, happiness and Ion
gevity.

NEW SOUTH'S LEADER
COLONEL HEMPHILL, WHO is WORK.
ING FOR DIXIE

"Business, No Politics; No Section-
a1ism," the Motto of the "New
South"-SpIendid Growth In Com
merce and Industry Achieved by
Efort-Atlanta's Leading Citizen.
Dixie land has given ample proofs
during the past decade of its deter
mination to claim it's rightful heritage,
not alone in agriculture, which had
hitherto been it's main reliance, but
also in commerce and manufactures.
The story of it's growth in these re-
spects within a few years is too long to
be retold, but it is the proud boast Of
the south that it has fulfilled many of
its promises and is rapidly taking it's
place as one of the most prosperous
sections of the country. There are still
some obstacles in it's way to a full
enjoyment of all that nature has done
for this favored section of our coun-
try, but when these are removed moth
ing will be able to stay the tide Of
prosperity.
The pride of southerners in their
country is proverbial, and they are do
ing all they can to develop its re-
sources. At the recent southern indus
trial convention held at New Orleans
this feeling was fully brought out, and
the man who did most to set forth the
glories and promise of the south was
Colonel William A. Hemphill of At
lanta Colonel Hemphill's speech on
that occasion was called the most elo-
quent heard in recent years in New
Orleans and evoked a storm of enthu-
siasm. The motto of the convention
was, Business; no politics; no sec
tionalism," and this expresses the at
titude of the leaders of the new
south toward their own section of
the country and the others.
Colonel Hemphill has for many years
been connected with every movement
