Twentieth Century PARALLELS.
THE PROMISE OF THE TWELVE

The Twelve Great Fairies decided one
day 20 pay a visit 10 the Most Miserable
Man. So they set ont from the Palace OF
Time and in due season reached the Land
of the Men People And here IL was din
cult TO Immediately locate him for whom
they searched For when they asked one
he replied. II am he" and when they
asked another. that one likewise an
sUered- Il am he" and q third. the same.
So that the Quest was by no means an
easy one.
But finally. after listening TO the con-
fessions. in many tongues. Of the dumb
brother-to-the-ox theory, and dismissins
all as unworthy OF their particular at
rention. the Twelve Great Fairies from the
Palace Of Time came upon him they
sought. And they made speech with him.
bidding him be Of good cheer.
But the Most Miserable Man looked not

q sorry object. In place Of eyes, he looked

the Coma OF Lost Respect. And they
courseIed him TO leave OF repining. and
take Notice OF Things. But the Most Mis-
cradle Man answered that this might not
be. as. in truth he had no eyes TO see
only dumb Despairs. But, said the First

TO give any correct idea Of the losses
caused to these planters by the alter

behind from 10 to % per cent in grinding
owing to the great scarcity Of labor dur

insufficient labor a large proportion Of

that windrowed cane has been lost II
is estimated on the floor Of the Sugar
Exchange that the planters. speaking

20 those who were still grinding lost
p per cent of their crops.
Others went so far as 10 estimate the
loss in round figures at a million dol
