Among the drawbacks Of civilization
are the people who think they know
us so much better than We know them.
A philosopher is man who believes
that he receives more spiritual intlma-
tions than he needs for his own use.
Even the woman who boasts that
she earns her own bread and butter
likes to have a man treat her to ice
cream.
What seems to be the absence of a
sense of humor is often merely the
presence of a sense of proprlety.
Nature has her jesting moods; there
are rich, red roses which have no
odor.
Pessimists are permitted to keep op-
timists from becoming pessimists.
Life is ofren too much like long
procession with only one band uf
music-always playing in the distance.

A Weak Proposition.

A wrinkled Italian jerked a monkey
from his hind legs from the sidewalk
to the top of his hand organ with a
scowl.
Coma backa," he called.
The monkey rapidly removed and re-
placed a jaunty cap with a feather
thereon and blinked his beady eyes
with rapidity.
Twenty centa to see tina monka
china de tree" said the Italian to the
assembled children. 'Clima way high"
Straightway the little ones began
gathering in the money from parent
and companion. Finally the sum was
turned over to the wandering organist.
"Jacka getta de tree, vit.' He point
ed to tall limb and shook the cord.
Jacko obeyed, scrambling up the tree
trunk with meekness and dispatch.
The Italian counted the coins he
had received and dropped them into
his pocket. "Jacka the monka great
animal; he educate" He ground a
discordant lay, whole passages of
which were either fiat or missing
The children were watching the
monkey when the italian again ad
dressed them. He pointed an unclean
finger up at the animal and said: Ten
centa to see monka come down." He
didn't get it.-Albany Journal.

Passing Of Sailing 8arke.

Not many years ago the East river
water front was forest of masts."
Today. dozen smokestacks take
their place. Poetry has given place
to the dullest and driest of prose. An
illustration of the sorrowful pass to
which sailing vessels in the merchant
marine have come was related last
week by the son of a once wealthy
shipowner now dead.
81 was present in my youth" said
he, lat the christening OF one of my
fathers barks, a quarter Of a century
ago. The vessel cost about $4,000.
In her maiden voyage to Australia she
cleared net profit of more than $780,
O00-more than paid for herself, in
fact.
Not long since, while settling up
my fathers estate, $50 was offered
to me for an eighth interest in an
other bark which he had owned. 1t
cost him $4,000. I took the offer. 1t
was a question of taking $50, or pay.

profit if I did, took the cash: New

Mr.. Howells on New York Society.


In the Easy Chair" in Harpers, Mr..
Howells comments on Senator Depew's
recent comparison of New York and
London society and narrates the fol-
lowing instance of what happened
when Mr.. Curtis attempted to unite
intellectual and millionaire society:
1T is by no means new discovery
which Mr.. Depew has made in regard
to eur plutocratic society, though the
fact does not impugn his originality in
proclaiming it. The present tenant Of
the Easy Chair remembers hearing his
famous predecessor, who so wished all
manner of men and women we'll, and
was always trying to make life more
interesting and edifying, tell OF GER
tain experience of his, apropos OF the
very situation which Mr.. DeDew re-
grets. This presented itself so deplor-
ably to the eminent humanist that he
took counsel with a certain Great
Lady, lady really great enough to
imagine his motive and aim, for the
amelioratlOn OF exclusive society Dy an
infusion of the best company If the
memory of the witness serves him
rightly, the humanist provided the
Great Lady with a list of delightful
as we'll as distinguished people, whom,
as one of the most delightful and dis
tinguished among them, though yet
man Of society, he was in the habit of
meeting on their own ground, on those
lofty levels where they did their high
thinking and possibly joking; and the
Great Lady asked them to her house.
They came; but they did not come
again; and she was thereafter shut up
to her ow-millionaires, and the best
company kept itself to itself as far as
she knew"

This was our first and last tusslc.
Never since then, though she had con-
fded many things to me, have l at
tempted to sound her through direct
questions.
Sometimes she will talk of her child
hood, her far-away childhood, so DIN
and unreal to me, each year more vivid
and real to her. AS she sits in my
room, after l have gone to bed, ard
sazes into the fire, often suggest that
she is thinking how she loves me. A
faint smile brightens her face, and she
shakes her head.

talks of the funny, dreamy slave aaya
pathetic in their happiness-and the
wrinkles smooth away and she look:

Then, when she sits in the window
and the setting SUN flares on her BAH

is up to, the answer always comes,

Beef and Dairy Cattle.

For many years the Georgians have
given much attention to the improve
ment OF the stock of dairy cattle, and
all over the northern and middle sec
tons and in some of the southern
counties are many first-clas dairy
farms stocked with cattle of the best
known milk breeds.
1t has been the effort of the depart
ment OF agriculture to encourage this
good work in every way, and at the
same time to present to our farmers
every incentive to the Improvement
OF our beef cattle, and the newspa
pers and agricultural journals of the
state have nobly backed up all these
efforts.
Our most entsrprising farmers no
longer have their corn cribs and smoke
houses In the west, as was the case for
several years after the great civil war
1t is time now that we were having our
great packing houses in our own cities
supplied with the best of beef from
our own stock yards. There is al
ready in the suburbs of Atlanta the
packing house of T. r. Sawtell; an.
other in Brooks county and others in
other sections Of the state. The great
scarcity of beef from the cattle states
Of the Union and the consequent high
prices ought to wake up our people to
the grand opportunity Of cheaEening
this important article of diet and keen.
ing in our own state the money that
now goes beyond our borders
Not only clover, alfalfa Tor lucerne)
and other grasses Of the northern, mid.
die and western sections of the Union
flourish in many parts of Georgia, but
our own native grasses and our soil.
snriching peavines in every section OF
the. state give abundance of the best
hay and supply the finest pasturage for
stock.
The prosperity of our state will be
greatly increased by the establishment
of great stock farms, not only by the
consequent cheapening of our meat
supplies, but also by the wonderful en-.
riching Of the soil, wherG'e.' herds o.
