Why Negro Domination Fails.

(From The New Orleans PicaymeD
That negro domination and social
equality have failed is due to the fact
that the inferiority of the negro race, an
inferiority that has existed from the
foundation of human society and has
been established under all conditions
from the dawn of history 20 the present
day placed the whites in control and
forced the negroes Of the south into a
subordinate place in the Organization and
economy Of the southern states.

AN INTERESTING COUPLE.
Frank j. Gould and His Charming
Fiancee, Miss Helen Margaret
Kelly.

The engagement of Miss Helen Mar
garet Kelly, of New York, grand
daughter of the late Eugene Kelly,
and Frank j. Gould, recalls the fact
that Jay Gould and Eugene Kelly
were enemies. So active in their
hatred of each other were they that
q philosopher said to Mr.. Gould:
"You scott at the scientific theory
of heredity, but why do you and
Kelly detest each other so much?
Because your ancestors were on OPP
posite sides at Cromwelfs invasion
of Ireland"
Mr.. Kelly and Mr.. Gould regarded
that explanation of their perpetual
disputes as frivolous. Their disputes
were about ethics of banking, about
stock speculation and railways.
The courts have hardly ceased to
be preoccupied by them, says the
New York Journal. Mr.. Kelly was a
devout Catholic, Mr.. Gould Presby-
terrain. Mr.. Kelly opposed his sons
marriage with Protestant.
1t happened in 1882 and was kept
secret from him until 1898. But then
he was not displeased. He loved his
daughter-in-law, Mrs. Edward j..
Kelly.
Her husband died in July. He was
commodore of the New York Ro-
ehelle Yacht club, owner of the steam
yacht Barracuda, and gave festivals
there which had a great charm of
unaffected cordiality.
His death happened while he was
making preparations to entertain

WORRY IS IMPROBABLE.
1t Destroys Energy and Robs It's
Victim of the Strength Necessary
for His Life Work.

There is nothing so foolish and I'M
profitable as a habit of worrying. 1t
destroys nervous energy and robs us
of strength necessary for the real
work of life. 1t makes existence a
burden and WEAKNESS, instead of a
joy and blessing. Poise and serenity
are necessary to true success. The
man who worries is never self-cen.
tered, never perfectly balanced,
never at his best; for every moment
of mental anxiety takes away vital
ity and push, and robs him of man
hood and power.
Worrying indicates lack of con.
fidence in our strength; it shows
that we are unbalanced. The man
who does not worry, who believes in
himself, touches the wires of infinite
power.
The habit of worry is largely a
physical infrmity; it is an evidence
of lack of harmony in the internal
system. The well-poised soul, the
self-centered man, never wabbles OF
hesitates. Enough vital energy has
been wasted in useless worry to ran
all the affairs of the world.-Baptist
Record.

shown here seems an ideal one of its
kind as to completeness, besides pos
sessing a decidedly convenient and
novel feature in its -four sitter. Pos
sibly this -four bin is the best feature
of the cabinet, and it is claimed for
it that it effectually prevents the flour
from becoming musty, as it is apt to
do when the -four is constantly being
dipped from the top and the bottom
allowed to remain. In this one no old
flour is allowed to accumulate, as it
is put into the bin at the top, passes
through the bin and comes out nicely
sifted at the bottom.
The sitter is made in a small drawer
and slides into the bin and can easily
be removed The flour can be sifted
on to the back part of the molding
board directly underneath or into a
pan or bowl.
Besides this admirable feature this
cabinet has three large drawers, cup
board for cooking utensils, 20-pound
fitting sugar bin, with close-fitting lid
and three drawers, the uppermost one
of which is divided by partitions into
six parts for spices. What more could

Finds Very Ancient Coin.

William E. Davis, veteran of the
Forty-second Indiana infantry, living
at Flora, H., has a Roman coin which
he found while campaigning in the
Philippines and which numismatists
claim is more than 1000 years old.
Authorities say the coin was struck
by the Emperor MaXiminus in 23G A.
d. The coin is in an excellent state
of preservation and the inscriptions
are legible. 1t is the size of an Amer
lean dollar and is made of bronze.
The diverse bears the head of the
emperor and the inscription reads,
'MaXiminus Plus Augustus Germani-
GUS" and the reverse has the figure
of man bearing aloft an olive
branch and bears the words, PAX
August" 1t is supposed the coin

HELPING WEAK COLONIES.
How to Do Away with One of the
Direct Causes of the So-CaIIed
Spring DwindIinE.

When the fall flow of nectar is light
the bees dicontinue brood rearing
early, and consequently go into winter
quarters very light in number, and
rather old to insure successful winter
ing. This is one of the direct causes
of the so-called spring dwindling. 1t
must be prevented by lase brooding.
Those who leave their bees to starve
in poor season are not deserving of
honey in a good one.
To obtain the best results from our
bees they should be fed to stimulate
brood rearing, so that our colonies
will be very strong at frus bloom.
To do this we must begin to feed as
early as the weather will permit the
bees to fly at least once a week. Some
mild day soon after rem owing them
from the cellar, all colonies should
be closed on what combs they will
cover with sufficient stores to last
two or three weeks, placing the I'M
occupied combs in the outside of the
follower.
When feeding time arrives prepare
your feed, either a poor grade of
honey, maple sirup, or better still
graduated sugar, which should be
about the consistency of newly gath
cred honey. If sugar is used the pro-
portion is equal parts of sugar and
water. 1t may be fed without heat
ing, but l prefer to bring it to a scald
and to put it in the combs and feed
while milk warm. Take the combs
to be used, uncapping what honey
they contain, and fill the empty por-
ton with the strip. Rest the comb
over the tank in slanting position
with the top bar up and dip the sirup
on it with dipper having perforated
bottom. Place one comb next to the
cluster once week, removing the one
given last.-Orange Judd Farmer.

DOMESTIC TRAINING.
why 1t Should BE an Essential E1e-
ment in the Education of Our
American Girls.

A practical training in the art of
successful housekeeping should be an
essential element in the education of
our girls. 1t is a regrets BILE fact that
the domestic education of a girl is too
often neglected. If there is one thing
above another that will disturb the
peace and harmony of a family that
has in it the elements to make a hap
Ply home, it is the inefficiency of the
wife or mother to properly conduct
the affairs of the household.
The average young sophisticated
girl of to-day believes her worldly edu-
cation to be at an end when she has
gained the mastery of an art, can
rattle off few airs on the piano, can
sing passably well, or has won a GER
tificate for proficiency in some foreign
language. In this conclusion she errs.
There is much still to be learned, would
she fit herself for the important do
mestic duties to which nine out of
every ten girls are sooner or later
called. The woman. the mother, may
properly be called the handspring of
the home. 1t is she who dictates the
policy of the household and presides
over the destiny of its inmates.
1t is important, therefore, that the
natural instincts and gifts of the wom-
ans nature should be carefully fos-
tered and developed. that the best in
them may be utilized to build an edu-
cation that will serve we'll the girl
who has been instructed in the art
of housekeeping.-N. Y. Weekly.

HE CAUGHT THE PRINCESS.
Although Disguised She Was Caus Int

Discovered.

Discovered.
An entertaining story comes from
the French Alps of Dauphiny, relat-
ing the futile efforts of the Princess
of Croy, who desired to enter the
monastery of the Grande Chartreuse,
a habitation from which women visit
ors are rigidly excluded, says an ex
change.
The story runs that the princess
dressed herself in boys clothes, and
accompanied her husband to the in
stitution. The gates were opened to
them, and the prince sent his card to
the father superior, with line to the
effect that he was accompanied by a
friend.
Just as they were about to make
the round of the building, the word
was received that the father would
like to see the prince and his friend"
Gong upstairs, they were received by
the smiling monk, who cordially in
vited them to join him in an apretiz-
ing luncheon. The princess endeav-
ored to make the best of the situa-
ton, but she was not put any the
NOR" at her ease by the fact that the
monk kept gazing sharply at her.
At last he exclaimed suddenly:
Catch it, young mani" at the same
time throwing at her a large pear.
The princess was startled and, thrown
completely off her guard, made a
feminine motion to grab up her skirt,
the absence of which she overlooked
in her confusion.
Then the father stopped smiling,
and said, with great gravity:
Il beg your pardon, madam, but
ladies are not allowed in the monas-
terry. l must ask you to wait outs;d de
until the prince has finished his in
spection."
And outside she had to go, the rev.
erend father bowling her from the
room with most elaborate politeness.
