Winona Democrat: One can
hardly realize that twenty Years
ago the pine lands Of Mississippi
had no market value, when we CON
slider the unlimited demand now
for pine lumber. The Agricultu-
raj and Mechanical college recent
~ sold $4,000 acres for 1927 per
acre and the purchaser, it is said,
would not, take $12 per acre.
Surely Mississippi has caught the
industrial quick-step, She has
awakened to a realization of her
industrial wealth and the great
possibilities in store for her.

ALLAH AND AMERICA.
A Persian Legend About the Cren-

A Persian Legend About the Cren-
tors Visit to Earth.
In Persia, on a morning after the YER
min had been particularly vigorous, |
said something caustic about getting
back to Gods country. An Armenian
who had reposed in utter comfort in
the same caravansary heard it and
smiled. Being an Armenian, he hated
the Persians, probably. incidentally
the Persian reciprocates.
Well, this Armenian, rubbing his
hands and with his head skewed over
on one side, said: THE Persians have
legend for everything. They have a
legend for what you said just now. 1t
is this:
"Allah-that is God-once said to his
angel, I will see this world which l
made
'And so Allah and the angel descend
ed Invisible in q cloud to the earth,
and the first place at which they ar
rived was, France-that is, in Feren-
ghistan And there they saw the rail-
roads, and the tramways, and the the
aters, and the great picture galleries.
And Allah looked in disappointment
and said: Alas, no! This is not the
world which l made. made none of
these things
$50 they journeyed to Inglezistan-
that is England = and there were
mighty ships in the harbors and huge
mills which make all sorts of things
and food in plenty. And again Allah
said: Alas, no! This Is not the world
which made And everywhere they
travelled in the cloud Allah looked upon
the land and said, No; this is not it.
"At last, in despair the angel led the
way to Persia, and Allah sat himself
down upon very high mountain, and,
looking far on every side, he saw nei-
ther railroads nor tramways nor thea
ters nor picture galleries nor ships nor
mills nor schoolhouses nor plenty to
eat.
"And Allah said: Yes, at last. This
is the world which made. Not a
thing is changed. The people whom
put there have done nothing"
"Why didn't he come to America? |
asked.
"Sir," answered the Armenian, ''in
Persia they had not even heard Of
America. p Harpers Weekly.

A certain teacher who had studied

ceivable standpoint finally found the
cause of his apparent wickedness. He
had been especially annoying all day,
and at the close of the school the teach

what is the trouble, anyway? Why is
it you find it so hard to behave in

Don't make very rapid showing.
My lady's maid an age ago
Said she would be down in second;
I'd give a trife just to know
Exactly now her time is reckonedl

Two chubby loves support its dial.
One love, strong one, though, find,
Supports me in this present trial.
Perhaps by her fair hand it's wound;
wonder this the while l linger.
My lady can-that, too, I've found
Wind me--around her little finger.
She knows it, too; I'll bet dime
Her purpose is to keep me guessing.
1t seems Pm only marking time,
Whereas l thought was progressing.
Time! That is why this clock is set
To mind us of the moments fieeting,
But time completely forget
From the sweet moment of our meeting.

Click, click, her boot heels, oak and leather
Thump, thump, my heart! knew she'd come
