NEW REUNION MUSIC.

A new piece of reunion music has been
published by .. Il. Houck Il Co.. of Mem
phis and Little Rock. For originality and
briilancy it cannot be excelled. 1t is called
the "U. c. V. March," a two. step, COM
posed by Theo. H. Northrup, and dedi-
Gated to the United COnfederated Veter-
ans. From a musical as well as an artistic
viewpoint this production, issued especial
ly for the coming reunion, is MASTER
piece, and one that will live in the MEM
DRY ,of those who hear it frcm scores Of
bands and orchestras here during the
great gathering. The contrast of the
brilliant catchy first part, with the sweet
sadness OF the memories of the great tray-
edy recalled by the conclusion, is where
the composer has shown his art.
The cover is a beautiful thing, wrought
in the old Confederate colOrs. The top OF
the sheet is adorned with Confederate
standard, with the letters, ~. G. "" in
blue. Below this are the portraits of Gems
Robert +. Lee and Nathan Bedford For
ret. To the right of this is u fac-simile 0!
the Confederate emblem-the famous Re-
union button. Two sheathed swords end a
branch of olive are emblematic of the
eternal peace Of the old North and the
South, section that no longer exist, and
this effect is heightened by furled flag, L
shattered drum and a dismOunted field gun
at the base Of the two portraits. 1t is a
work of art and credit to the designer

DIGNITY Of FARMING.
In All the World There Il No Nobier
or More Learned Calling Than
That of Agriculture.

Within recent years it has come to
be acknowledged that the vocation OF
the farmer isthe most dignified of all
the sciences and as an art it is ex-
celled only by those of painting and
architecture. In its highest forms IL
is the most learned of all professions.
A knowledge of geology and chemls-
try and their relations to the soils
lies at the very foundation of scien-
tific agriculture. The problems that
arise from the complex nature OF the
soils and their origin require the
best thought of the best minds TO
solve. More educated young men
should be farmers. Agriculture opens
wide field leading to influence and
power, one, too, that is not filled TO
repletion. 1t holds forth the most
splendid promises to young men OF
ambition. 1t is filled with hberaliz-
ing tendencies, noble conservation
and the most healthful and invigorat-
ing influences. The day is not lar
distant when agriculture will attract
men of the largest capacity and the
highest executive ability, and be re-
garded a the greatest of all the pro-
fessions. Let anyone who is famlllar
with what agriculture was hundred
years ago compare its condltlon
then with what it is to-day and he
will search in vain for the same pro-
portionate elevation and progress
among it's followers in any other
branch of human industry. Many Of
those engaged in agriculture now are
men of high elevation and broad
reading. Many of them have extern
sive and valuable libraries and take
numerous journals devoted to their
business. Agriculture moves along in
it's own quiet, dignifed, but lrreslstl-
BILE way. It has no booms, so to
speak, but it gathers strength with
each decade and with every accession
of knowledge, and will forever be the
most important branch of human in
dustry and the greatest necessity for
the human race.
If the young men who are measur-
ing tape and laces would surrender
their work to the young girls who
are seeking. employment and turn
their attention to the pursuits of ag-
riculture there would be less misery
and more contentment in the land;
there would be more independence
and less servility; more men and few
er creatures; more happy wives with
comfortable homes, healthful chill
dren and cheerful tempers. A woman
surrounded by all the active agencies
of a well-kept farm and living in a
beautiful country home with foun-
dations and flowers and sweet ever
green's" has those environments that
develop the sweetest graces and high
est impulses of her nature and make
her virtues shine resplendent above
the world of frivolity and fashion. She
becomes a true woman, the happlest
of wives and the best of mothers.
Such home and such wife realize
our highest ideals of human happl-
ness. 1t is home where intelli-
gence reigns and ennobles work and
work crowns intelligence with honor
and profit.
A Young man who is in search of an
easy place, with no responsibility,
will never be a master and will never
control others. He who selects vo-
cation because it is easy is already ef-

Saved the Little Bottles.

'1 have patient who is wonderfully con-
siderate of my interests" said prominent
physician, lately. "A few, weeks ago he had
giving him four-grain capsules, so that he
might take the drug without discomfort.
"He came out of his attack, and few
days later called to see me at my Office.
Judge of my surprise when he exhibited
the empty capsules and said: Doctor,
thought you might ike the little bottles, so
I saved them and brought them back He
had emptied each four-grain dose of the
bitter powder, and then essayed the rather
hopeless task Of washing it down with wa
ter I couldn't do otherwise than to take
the little bottles from him without word,
and next time I'll give him quinine in an
other form. '-Philadelphia Public Ledger.
