The Earthly Paradlse.

People at the federal capital have
been grooming about what they are
pleased to call the "calor excessive" OF
tremendous heat. Here in happy Ia
basco we have a constant heat, get used
TO it, and live rs merrily as the gambol-
ing monkeys in the jungle. And we
are healthier here than people are up
in the City Of Mexico, where men
chase the rolling peso to keep in funds
to meet the demands of a society which
worries them while pretending to
amuse. Here full dress is a neglige
shirt, as neglige as you please, pair
of light trousers Garter is wearing
yellow nankeen this summer), and
smile of contentment. The up-country
plantations report good times, salaries
are on the fareast schedule, cham
payne is no luxury, but daily com.
fort, and missionary effort is unknown.

Probably the best rife shot among

he might have one for his own. When

Albany Argus.
When only eight years old Miss
Oakley began to create a sensation
by her accuracy with the rifle. At

against an unknown. The stranger
would have shot for more, "but that

Oakley. Frank Butler was the
stranger. Miss Oakley, now Mrs.

Record after record has been made

WASTE OF FORCE.
There Is Such a Thing as a Woman
i Trying to DO More Than
She Ought To.

4 A cultivated woman, the wife of
professional man, after struggling I'M
successfully for several years with the
Z problem of domestic service, recently
dismissed her general Homework girl,
and reorganized her household with
the plan of doing all its work herself.
This includes the care of her three
little children and the washing, says
Youths Companion.
Her husband has a salary sufficient
to provide service, but her theory is
that doing without it is a return to
simplicity of life, as well as a solu-
tion of troublesome question. Is she
right?
In an ideal community every ore is
engaged in the highest sort of work
ifSf which he is capable. Until we have
reached much happier state than
now there will always be a large num-
Der of men and women fitted only for
unskiled labor. TO train these for
better work is one of the most useful
functions of those superior to them
in opportunity and requirement.
That George Eliot should be wash
ing dishes when she might be writing
"Silas Mariner" that Mr. Edison should
be hoeng potatoes while he might be
s. in,enting storage battery. or that
mother should hr ironing her chill
Gren's clUthe, wheu she Mlsht l.,
training their minds and hearts, would
be wicked waste of power.
When such work is forced upon an
sbIe woman because of lack Of means,
II ought to be accepted with a high
philosophy, and pursued with all the
skill at her command So met, it
gains dignity all its own. When it
is assumed voluntarily-as Tolstoi,
for example, is said to have assumed

the sense of proportion and of power

GOV. LONGINO,S THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION.

Gov. Longino has issued the
following Thanksgiving proclama-
tion, which does honor alike to
his head and heart:
History proves that failure and
disaster have always overtaken
those countries which forget their
dependence upon God and with
hold from Him their homage.
The people of the United States,
mindful of this fact, have from
the very beginning of their ma
tional life and history honored
and reverenced God as the divine,
just and supreme Ruler of the
world. With hearts and minds
burning with patriotism and phi
lanthropy, and dedicated to His
service, the Pilgrim Fathers plant
ed at Plymouth, in 1920, the germ
Of civil and religious liberty from
which, under Gods favor, has
grown this-the very best and
most powerful government known
to the world. The custom, there
fore, of setting apart a day when
the entire citizenship Of the com
monwealth is asked to offer united
praise and thankfulness to the
Creator for all His goodness and
mercy, is role highly becoming
that Christian civilization now
and always enjoyed by the people
of this State and nation.
The year which is drawing to a
close has brought untold blessings
to the people of Mississippi, for
which they should feel profound
" and humbly thankful, and in
recognition Of all these gracious
fayors bestowed in love and mer-
cy by the Great Heavenly Faith
er, I do hereby recommend
Thursday, November 81, 1902,
as day of thanksgiving and pray
er, and that the people of the
State, without reference to creed,
shall desist from all labor and bus
mess and assemble at their respec-
tive places of worship, or in the
home circle, and render thanks to
God for His manifold blessings
lyouchsafed to them individually
as well as to the State and nation.
In thus renderinsg thankfulness
| to the Great Ruler, let those whom
The leader., 1902-11-26

can see more than man on the
gronud. Being above the atmos-
phere of strife, petty jealousy,
fractional fights, etc., he has a
clearer idea of right and wrong
and is able to tell black from
white much better than the man
down below who mixes with the
multitude.
To a man up a tree it seems
strange that there is to be such
a bitter fight made by the old
members of the Board of Alder
men to retain an Office which has
no pay-very little honor-lots of
hard work, and oceans of abuse.
If manager of business was
engaged at good salary to run a
certain business and after running
it for a year or two could not make
it pay, the proper thing for him
to do would be to resign and give
some other fellow chance. If
the new manager failed then it
would Vindicate his predecessor
and prove that he had exerted all
his skill and business tact and
that the business was not the kind
that could be run at a profit.
This is what would naturally oc-
cur if the manager was getting a
good salary. If It were poor sal
ary he would be more anxious to
quit. If there were no salary with
the job he would drop it like it
were hot potato.
The man up a tree has read with
interest last weeks S Supplement of
The Leader. He has also kept
tab from month to month Of the
proceedings of the Board of Alder
men and would roughly estimate
that the expense Of the power
house have run ahead Of the reye-
nues from that source during the
past year 81, 800 to $1,000. The
business therefore, is not a sue
cessful one, and something will
have to be done.
OF course the city has had the
benefit Of about forty street arc
lamps and quite number of fire
plugs, but this is Offset by the in

These aerial reflections may
seem old fogyish and queer to
the ordinary, everyday man who
attends strictly to his own bust
ness and is too engrossed in same
to think seriously of public af-
fairs.
If, however, he would take the
time to make five minute calcu-
lation of what his share of the

to, the chances are he will begin
