T cannot stay thanksgiving. Why all his behaviors did make their re-

 To the court of his eye, peeping thorough
 desire:
 His heart. like an agate, with your print

 Proud with his form, in his eye pride
 expressed.
 His tongue all impatient to speak and

 Did stumble with haste in his eyesight

 He who loves all them worthy to be classed of the beloved may not stay thanksgiving, but it is his to say, God be with you until we meet again, my be- loved
 Very poor indeed is he or she who has not got something for which to be thank full. There does not dwell worthily upon the earth any one who may not give praise That man or that woman who does not daily give praise for the bless ings the Master has given has no just call upon the Masters goodness and should perish even as noxious weeds waste in the noontime of the sunshine. God is good. God is Love. And whilst the way of the offender, the transgressor, is for ever hard. there is a pillow for every head, however or by whatsoever, weary and aching.
 Petty tyranny with its rudeness and its carking care may oppress outrage and wrong the worthy and plant mur- der in the heart. but it is the divine command that servants obey their mas ters, however, drunken. ill-tempered, harsh and ill-conditioned the masters be.

Bachelors Run the Farm.

The Virginia constitutional con-
vention has more bachelors in it's
membership than any similar body
that ever assembled in the Old Do
minion or elsewhere. One of the
most prominent members is Charles
e. Miller of Pittsylvania county.
Mr.. Miller is the present owner Of a
1900 acre farm, situated one mile
from Mount Airy, which has the dis
tinction of having been owned by
bachelors for a couple of centuries.
No married couple has ever lived in
the house. In speaking of the old
place Mr.. Miller said:
"The property descended to me
from my uncle, who died at the age of
nearly eighty. Like myself he was a
bachelor. My uncle was Crenshaw
Miller and the property was left to
him by a bachelor uncle. For more
than 200 years no man and wife has
ever lived in the house.
There was never any obligation,
contract, or understanding that the
heir or owners should never marry.
Ii just happened that my uncle nor
my great uncle ever married. That's
all there is to it. In fact, prior to
my uncle's death, he constantly urged
me to marry, but up to this time l
have not compiled with his request.
"The farm has never passed out Of
the family since it was originally
granted, and it has never had lien
or mortgage on it nor has it ever
been delinquent for taxes"
While a confirmed bachelor Mr..
Miller is fond of society and enter
tains many parties at his home

A neater article of the national mad
never been put up on the home
grounds, and when the visitors picked
up the stick in the final with the tally
standing 2 to 2, everybody from the
eldest fan to the youngest paper seller
was sJanding on his seat and yelling
to the local slab artist to serve up his
choicest assortment of rounl-house
benders, and keep whatever guy was
handling the ash pivoting at delu-
sions. The twirler was up to busi-
ness and laid 'em over so. fast that
the receiving end of the battery, who
wears a bird cage and liver pad,
looked as if he were shelling peas.
The first two victims only tore
rents in the atmosphere, but the
third guy connected an1 laid off a
flaming grosser which would have
made a projectile from a 13-incn gun
look like a bean bag tossed from one
baby to another. The man on the
difficult corner was right there,
though, and tagged the horse-hide pill
with his sinister talon, assisting it
over to the initial hassock in such
short order that someone yelled de-
risively, THAT fellow runs like an
Orange street automobile"
The home aggregation came to the
bat. Every one was confident that
they were going to pound the sphere
around the lot, but the opposing team
ran in a new guy with a slow south
wing, and before they had expected
there were two man down and two
strikes on the next guy. But oh,
Phoebe! on the next delivery he be-

A Remarkable Pear.

Quite as curious phenomena may be

ist, now draws attention.
There was" he says, 'in my garden
until recently a pear growing on Il
tree the branches OF which had trained
to run along an iron netting. This
pear, as 1t developed, passed through
one of the openings in the network,
and then it grew to a great size on
each side OF it, the result being thar

fruit | had 10 cut away the network
by which it was held captive.

led in the ground. The metallic belt
encircled the potato and did not add
anything to its beauty

All forms of btuminouS paVements,
whether manufactured from natural
or artificial asphalt, are in fact artil-
fetal stone pavements. The industry
started with the use of the natural
rock asphalt from the mines in the
Val de Travers, Canton Neufchatel,
Switzerland. The mines were dis
covered in 1921, but it was in 1S49
that its utility as a road covering was
first noticed The rock was then be
ing mined for the purpose of extract
ing the bitumen contained in it for its
use in medicine and the arts. 1t is a
limestone found impregnatei with
bitumen, of which it yields, on analy-
sis, from to ID percent.
1t was observed that pieces of rock
which fell from a wagon were crushed
by the wheels, and under the COM
bined influence of the traffic and heat
of the sun a good road surface was
produced. A macadam road of as
phalt rock was then made, which gave
very good results; and finally, in 1854,
a portion Of the Rue Bergere was laid
in Paris of compressed asphalt on a
concrete foundation. In 1858 a still
larger sample was laii and from that
time il has been laid year by year in
London, being laid on Threadneedle
street in 1869, and CheapsiIe in 1870,
and in successive years in other
treets.-Municipa Journal and Engi-

DR.. Garel of Lyons has drawn a
French nail about two inches long
from the bronchial tube of boy of is
months from Buenos Ayres. The nail
had been there for some time, causing
the child to cough much. Rontgen
rays showed the position of it, and an
electromagnetic drew it out. Another
successful operation of the same kind
has been performed by DR.. Piechaud

this case the trachea was opened to get
