THE NAME OF A DOLL.
It Was Too Comprehensive to Be Easily
 Grssped.

oteSPSS-
 A gentleman residing in Phoenix has an uncle who was Mississippi steam boat captain and conversed with deck hands and stevedores so long that he acquired an energetic manner of speak ing, which he could not divest himself of even when in the presence of women and children. He was loved by all his relatives and worshipped by large nnmber of small nieces and Dephews to whom he always came bearing gifts. Once he visited the home of a little niece who had just acquired large doll. She had arrayed like solomon and was sitting on the floor admirins it when the old man entered.
 .'Hellor he exclaimed that's a great doll. Whats her name ?'
 "Gwendolyne Anasthasia," replied the little girl, adjusting a ribbon here and rearranging flounce there,
 What's that ?" cried the old man, who was partially deaf
 "Gwendoline Anasthasia, repeated the little mother.
 Say it again," said the old captain: 'I didn't quite catch it."
 The little girl arose from the floor, stood on tiptoe, and, the captain bend ing over, she yelled in his ear "G'w-e- n-d-o-l-y-n-e Ana s't'h-a-s-i-a. Now, do you hear itY"
 Well" said the captain, that's one hell of name for a doll !"
 "Yes," replied the little niece, and it's one hell of time Eve had tellin' it to you"

which I am here now, the judge
expressed grave doubts as to my
guilt. That jury found me guilty
because I had been convicted be-
fore. I had two trials, the first
jury disagreeing.
All [ have to say on this matter
is: If a man wants to start anew
and build up a reputation for him
self, let him stay away from the
city in which he was sentenced;
for if he does not, the first thing
he knows he will find himself in
Jail with some criminal charge
hanging over him, and the police
will make his past reputation con-
vict him. Do as I intend do

DESCRIPTION OF. THE
TOWN OF PINEVILLE,
ALA, AS 1T APPEARED
A FEW YEARS AGO.

80 cents a day for twelve hours
work, and when we consider that
the purchasing power of his credit
check was worth but half the
amount of it's face value, his pay
was small indeed. Short weight
was given at the company store
and double prices asked for every
thing doled out over its counters.
The laborers lived in wretched log
cabins, for the use Of which the
syndicate charged exhorbitant
rents. These cabins had no
windows and for floors the bare
ground was made to serve the pur-
pose Of wooden planks.
At the close of each days work
the employees formed in line and
filed past the window Of small
office, where a clerk gave each man
brass check upon which was
stamped the amount due him for
his labor. After securing his
check, the laborer went to the
store and purchased supplies for
the next day. It is needless to say
that he never received any change.
The prices were so high that he
could only secure the bare necessi-
ties of life. and of them just sufi-
cient for one days maintenance.
This system of paying it's en-
ployees daily was strong point in
the company's policy of oppres-
sion and prevented ambitious
workmen from accommodating any
great amount of the company's
currency. It kept the employees
impoverished and left them as
much at the mercy of the syndi-
cate as II they were It's bond
slaves.
Such We're the conditions at
Pineville, Alabama, during my
brief stay there. Whether there
has been a change for the better
since, [ know not. But we may
rest assured that the syndicate has
volunteered nothing to alleviate
the condition of it's employees.
You may think that perhaps I
have overdrawn the facts, but I
assure you that if anything I have
put the case too mildly.

GOOD MANNERS.

There is but one legitimate and
sure road to a natural aid graceful
use of social amenities-and that
is practice. By that [ do not mean
practice in what's called society
There is common opinion that
that is the only place to rub off
barbarisms-a great mistake.
Perfect naturalness of manner
exists only in those habits which
one employs day by day. A per-
son who is habitually surly is
much more natural when growing
than when smiling, and while one
who eats with his knife may do it
with ease, his attempts to use fork
make him the most awkward of
spectacles. The person who does
not permit himself to lounge about
in slovenly positions in the family
sitting room or in his private
chamber will carry himself erect
in the drawing room; he will not
stumble over the furniture or sit
awkwardly. If he has drilled his
hands and feet at home, they will
not trouble him abroad. If a
young man makes it a rule to open
the door for his mother or sister
when they leave the room, to re-
store a dropped article, to lift his
hat when he meets bis mother or
sister on the street or in any pub
lie place, he will do so instructive
ly and without embarrassment
when thrown into social life. If
he never allows himself to boast at
home, to strive to outtell some

and helpful hints for outside read
ing freely given.
'To the Young Men Beginning
Business" is the second of these
new departments. In it the most
successful men in a dozen occupa-
tons will write about what helped
them to the front in their own
business, and give list of books
and magazines bearing upon it.
Their purpose will be to tell the be-
ginner how he can make himself
more valuable to his employers.
These new departments will be-
gin early in January, and will be
made permanent feature of the
Saturday Evening Post.

body else, to guarantee informa-
ton or display curiosity, at din
ner party he will not be guilty of
such breaches of good breeding.
If punctual at home, he will not
break the law which runs: "To
be too late is a crime; to be too
early, b]under." Hands kept off
the table linen and which never
finger the silver or china in pri-
vate, will not do SO in public. If
he sips his soup from the side of
his spoon at home instead of try
ing to swallow it handle and all,
he will do SO when dining in COM
pany.
True, it may be discouraging to
practice these habits among those
who have no interest in the
nicer details of life, but no one
will consider it impossible so to
do. It is not necessary to put
ones self into training to become
SO conspicuous as either to incur
ridicule or antagonism. The very
effort to perfect ones habits with
out attracting attention will be no
mean drill.
The ground plan of good man
ners should begin with the child;
then it will come natural to the
adult. But it is no valid excuse
for the adult to advance the lack
of early training in excuse for the
mistakes he may make. We may
not be able to accumulate riches,
nor can we always avoid i'll health,
but natural instinct and observa-
ton Of others will furnish ample
means to cultivate good manners.

Among the young people of my
former friends, there is one espe-
.cialiy bright and we'll meaning
young fellow who complains that
his greatest social trouble is in
not feeling natural when in polite
company. He explains that he
knows what should be done and how
to do it, but his knowledge has
been obtained from books and
he has had SO little opportunity for
using it in society that he has
never acquired an ease of manner.
When he enters a reception room,
he sees himself and not the host
ess. After he gets home he fur
lively gets out his guide to good
manners and consoles himself by
reading it's assurances that so and
so is the proper thing to do. He
used to claim that he was not bash
full, but that the consciousness of
his lack Of practice and his tender
conscience reproached him be-
cause what he was trying to palm
off as his own manner was learned
in manual of etiquette. He asks:
~'What shall be done?"
Perhaps there are those who
would tell him: "Go ahead. If
you know; put on bold face, and
do. You cannot 60 far wrong.
Your assumption of ease will carry
you through" The advice would
carry the young man through
but not up in the social world.
Manners by rule are sure, sooner
or later, to betray their owner.

How High Birds Fly.

A Strassburg aeronaut says he
has seen an eagle at the height of
5000 yards, and again a pair OF
storks and buzzard 900 yards
above the sea level. On March 10,
1890, some aeronauts observed a
lark flying at a height of 1000
yards. These, however, are excep-
tons. Birds are hardly ever seen
above height of 1000 yards; even
at 400 yards they are not frequent.

The BX-COnYiCt'S Show
In. Life.

I have read three articles in ou1
little paper dealing with the future
life of discharged prisoners, and
all these articles say he can be-
come respected and honored. I
acknowledge that there is lots of
honor for convict to gain if he
goes to the right place to start
afresh, but [ never heard of a sin
gle man who left prison and went
back to the city where he was con-
victed and there gained honor. I
never heard of one who was given
a fair show under such circum-
stances. [ don't care who the man
is, or what his standing was before
he was convicted, after he is re-
leased from here and goes back to
his old home, the police and their

ing about for I have had the expe-
rience.
Two years ago last April [ left
here on a conditional pardon,
which stipulated that [ should not
leave the state, but should report
to the authorities every two
months. One of my friends came
to see me before my release and
advised me to 60 to x
where my wife and little ones were.
I had my doubts about going back
there, altho I was born and raised
there and was also convicted there.
However, [ followed the advice of
my friend, and returned to my
family and went to work the Sec
ond day after leaving here.
Between myself and an old
friend, an old judge, [ got back

day for three months. Then [ was

Town Owned by a Syndicate.
Some years ago [ spent few
weeks in the syndicate town OF
Pineville, Alabama. A condition
of affairs existed there such as |
believe had no parallel in the in
dustrial world at that time. The
town was owned by a lumber CON-
pany, which controlled all business
transacted within its borders. The
land for miles around was the
property of the syndicate, and it
even made and issued substitute
for money which served as me-
,dium of exchange within it's realm.
This currency consisted of round
brass checks of various sizes and
denominations.
With the exception of few
skilled mechanics, the population
of the town was composed of ne
groes. The condition of these
negro laborers was pitiful indeed;
they were virtually the slaves of
the syndicate. Many of them had
large families and their children
grew up in ignorance, for neither
the county officials nor the lumber
company provided educational ia
cilities. Even that relaxation
which religion affords was denied
them, for there was no church nor
minister within the town.
