Mr. Elmer Phillips. son of Mr.. A. W.

this time he is doing as well as anyone

house is quarantined and it is hoped
that no one else will take the disease.

LOaferS Laughed at Oiled
Steps.

Milton merchants are trying to solve
the problem of keeping loafers away
from the front steps of their stores on
Sundays and in the evening. but have
SO far failed. They are now ready for
suggestions of new plans. One plan
tried was to pour oil over the steps of
the stores. The idea was that the man
who sat on the oily steps would spoil his
clothing and would soon leave not to
return again. Evidently the loafers
heard of this plan early. for they dress
ed themselve in clothing which was not
affected by oil and proceeded to sit
about as usual Since then some of the
men keeping stores have talked of coat
ing the steps with coal tar. so that the
loafers would stick fast if they sat down
but this plan was abandoned. The store
keepers figured out that it woud take
too much time to scrape the coal tar
from the steps on Monday mornings. 1t
is not known what scheme will be tried
next, but some have suggested that the
town policeman take hand and arrest
some of the people who insist upon loaf
ing in front of the storehouses and other
places where they are not wanted.

Growing Cow Peas.

About the middle of June, 1901, Mr.
John u Cantwell, who resides in West
neighborhood. planted peck and
half of cow. or black. peas OH about an
acre of an old strawberry patch from
which he had only a few days before
finished shipping strawberries. He
plowed the ground and planted the
peas in hills .hree feet apart, and
worked the crop as he would work corn.
The latter part of September he went
over the field and picked all the ripe
peas. 0eaving the green ones,) and
when he threshed out his crop he had
twenty bushels of first class peas. He
let the vines and the green peas remain
on the land until this spring. when the
land was planted in corn, and we un-
derstand that the crop is luxuriant and
looks like it had been heavily fertilized.
During the month just past Mr.. Can't
well planted ten acres to peas but
drilled hem in rows two feet apart and
fertili. .hem well. -Marylands.

''WHY is the election of DIR. Ball to
Congress so much more important than
the election of two United States Sena-
tors from Delaware?" says the WiLDl-
jngton Sun. ''Is it possible that DR..
Balls influence in the House of Repre-
sentatives, one man among four hun
dred, would be greater, in the interest
of this State than that of two Senators
in membership of eighty-eight? Della
ware with two Senators would be the
equal in the Senate of any other State,
but represented by one Congressman
she is the equal of no other State, is
the least of all in influence with the
administration, and absolutely with
out force as a State. This is the pen
atty Delaware Republicans are endur-
ing because of the bolt of the anti-Ad-
dicksites. The present attitude of the
Anti-Addicksite boilers has no signiti-
canoe in politics beyond the control of
tie Federal Offices. 1t defeats the peo-
ple's candidates for United States Sen
ators, ignores and repudiates sworn
allegiance to the United States Consti-
tuition, and attempts to dictate the
election of a Congressional candidate
in order to retain control of the Fed
eral offices as the basis of continued
bOlter political organization. "
Statehood. the National COnstitu-
ton, the sworn duty of Legislators, the
rights of the people to Senatorial
representation, the influence of Sena-
tors in the protection of the States in
--t4=ests as a member of the union, and
in the promotion of improvement OF
harbors and waterways in the interest
of commerce and manufacturers, are all
of no consequence to the Anti-Addick-
sites compared with the control and
enjoyment of the Federal offices. 1t is
the Office holders, backed by few
men who imagine that their persona
interests are endangered by the success
of the Union Republican party, anC
whose fear of this is parent of thel
irreconcilable prejudice against Mr.
Addicks, that are demanding the cleo
tion of DR.. Ball to Congress, and ar
preventing the election of two Re
publican United States Senators"

old Age and Appetite.

An English scientist deprecates in
creased eating as a means of keeping
up the strength of those who are ad-
vancing in years and particularly OBJ
jects to the repeated and general use
of concentrated forms of animal nour-
ishment for the aged. Overnourish-
ment in old age is apt to lead to pains
and aches due to the impairment of
excretion, and a long protracted course
of overfeeding will end in an attack of
gout. Even artificial teeth are not to
be considered an unmixed blessing, for
by a provision of nature the teeth be-
gin to decay and become useless just
when the system begins to thrive
without much animal food of coarse
fiber. Indigestion. says the scientist, is
mostly not a disease. but an admoni-
ton. 1T is the language of the stom-
ach and is mostly an unknown tongue
to those who are addressed" 1t means
that the individual has not yet found
his appropriate diet. There is no food
whatever which is wholesome in itself.
That food is wholesome which is so to
the individual"

The Crafty Farmer.

1t appears that an old farmer near
HoughtOn owned a large pile Of small
stones, with which he wished to fill
ditch, but he had already got about
as much work out of his boys as they
were willing to do. especially as it was
nearing the hour for ball game. The
old man was bound TO have the stones
moved, anyhow, and so. pretending to
have discovered a nest of snakes in the
ditch. began stOning the place where
the snakes were alleged to be. The
boys, who a few minutes before were
weary and listless. were now all life
and animation. Each threw stones as
fast as he could grab them, and the pile
was soon in the ditch. There are two
morals to this story-frst. when you
set about killing a snake throwing
stones is a gladstone occupation; sec

Clipper Ship Model.

Clipper Ship MOdel.
Robert Livingston Stevens sailed
from New York to Liverpool before
the advent Of the ocean steamer. In
those days the passage took two
months. and Stevens passed many an
hour, jackknife in one hand and
piece of wood in the other, brooding
over a problem that had often worried
him-how to run a railroad without
stone stringers for tracks. He wanted
to get an iron rail that would 'hold''
and would take the place Of the thin
strips fastened to the chair of the
roadbed. Just before he reached Eng
land his whiting revealed to him the
solution of his problem, and that so
luton took the form of a I rail with
a broad base that could be applied di-
rect to a solid wood support That
Z rail is still in use on all railways
of the world.
The elder Cunard, who was appren-
ticed as a lad to a Scotch shipbuilder,
is said to have amused himself in
whiting the hulls of vessels. Occa-
sionally he would fit one of these with

not maintain its upright position in

'"The light is some distance this side
of Bay st. Louis and is little south
of Chinchuba. 1t stands away out IN
the marsh, but can be seen from the
Louisville and Nashville railroad. 1t
burns all the time, day and night
year in and year out. 1t fiickers away
for the benefit of the mariners who
frequent these waters. 1t is the Per-
petual light. The sun, the moon and
stars may come and go. but the light
which shines out in the dismal marsh
is always the same. 1t is the one
bright thing in a rather dismal stretch
of country. Seaweeds grow wild and
rank in that region. The land, such
as one may see from railroad train

BURIED UNDER SNOW.
The Great Storm That Overwhelmed
New England In 1717.

The Great Storm That Overwhelmed
New England In I717.
In the spring of 1717 an amount of
snow fell in New England that has not
been equaled during the three centu-
ries of its history. The great storm
began in February and buried the
earth to the depth of ten to twenty
feet Cattle were buried in it and
were found frozen stiff under the
drifts, and hundreds of sheep perished.
Wild animals grew so desperate from
the cravings of hunger that they be-
came nightly visitors to the farmers
sheep pens. Bears and wolves fol
lowed the deer even into the settlers
clearings and pounced upon them there,
killing them at such a rate that deer
reeves were afterward chosen in every
town to protect those valuable animals.
Many a one story house was entirely
covered with snow, and even the chin
neys in some instances could not be
seen. Tunnels led from house to house,
and snowshoes were in frequent requi-
sitiOn.
Stepping out of the chamber win
dow, some people ventured to explore
the fields of snow. One young man in
Newbury, Mass, was paying his ad-
dresses to a lady who lived three miles
away and had not seen her for week
after the storm. This state of things
could no longer be endured, and, mount
ing his snowshOes, he went over the
hills to enter her house as he had left
his own-by way of a chamber win
dow. AS he was the first person the
family had seen since the storm, hi
visit was highly appreciated.
