The star boarder who was reading
his paper at breakfast, suddenly
gave low shrek and fell to the
floor.
Kind hands lifted him to couch,
and somebody went for doctor.
The more curious among those
present picked up the paper and
saw what had shocked him. 1t was
an item reading:
California will ship sixty million
pounds of prunes to the Eastern
market this year."

Fault Ending

Watch your remarks. Make them

Pessmistic remarks dampen enthu-
siasm of others, discourage honest
effort and react on the grumbler.
Chronic fault finders command nc

THE DALLAS REUNION.

The heart OF every loyal southerner goes
out to Dallas this week. While thousands
of the Veterans OF the Lost Cause" are
there minglirg together is spirit OF fra
ternity known to no other class Of people
than those who followed the stars and
bars, there are many thousands more who
cannot attend and multiplied thousands
grown up since the war who are with them
in the spirit if not in the flesh.
These annual reunions OF the old Confed-
crate soldiers are their greatest boon, their
greatest solace, their greatest comforter.
They find nexpressible joy in their annual
gatherings around the camp fires to talk
over the greatest military struggle known
to modern warfare, struggle in which
they lost everything but manhood ana
honor. Their bitterest foe would be
heartless migrate to begrudge the real joy
they extract from these occasions. In the
civic pursuits of life the ex-Confederate
soldier measures up to the highest stan
dard of manhood. He is chivalrous, brave
and generous. He is the victem of superior
brute force in a conflict at arms, but his
merry making and good cheen are none the
less because he is the vanquished and not
the conquering hero. He j. hero still, for
history deeso not recotd the deeds of a
more .valorous soldiery. Deprivation
end starvation for principle have never
lowered the standard OF his MANHOOD. His
Tag has been furled and the cause for
which he fought has become obsolete by
the pressure of superior physical force, but
the principles for which he faced death on
many battlefield are as sacred to him as
manhood to defend them on the field OF
carnage. The events OF the great struggle
are part of his being, of his life-work,
which he has no desire to conceal and for
which he has no apology to offer.

there, sorry that we cannot personally
participate in the events of the great occa-
sion, but for the old soldier the real one
the one who smelt the smoke of battle and
did not weaken--the one who faced the
caunon's mouth and did not falter-the
one who met the enemy face to face and
dealt blow for blow and took Lille for life,
we have an admiration akin to idolatry.
There is nothing too good for him, nothing
that the pleasures OF this world could be.
stow that we would deny him. To him all
honor is due. To him the young manhood
of the New South raises it's hat in profound
reverence, for him we have veneration-a
deep and abiding veneration-only exceled
nv our contempt for the camp follower,
the huckster and the skulking spaniel who
sought the rear when there was danger,
and who would now share the honors OF
the ex-Confederate soldier.

folks had much to say. They realized that
hay was worth SIG ton, butter IS cents per
pound and eggs in demand at 16 cents per
dozen, and they couldn't make out why, in
the face of these facts. Cynthia should have
ideals. If she hadn't been very much in ear
