Is the best prize, because no one ever

honest work with the hands and brain.
And love means more to him who gives

otto did not quite understand, but he
knew the gentlcness of her words and
the tenderness Of her smile; and he
felt 80 happy in his heart that he would
not have changed places with n king.
"Here are your velvet clothes, and
yonder comes the prancing steed and
here is your purse Of gold, poor llans!"
she said, sadly, turning TO the eldest
brother. "You have worked hard and
you have gained what you worked for:
but YOU have hardened your heart, and
YOU will learn that not velvet coats nor
gold TO spend can give happiness. The
day will come when you will gladly
turn again to your garden, and pray to

Karl grew very fat and lazier every

y
day.
who's fool enough to waste these
pleasant days in working? he used to
exclaim scornfully, as he swung HIM
self on a branch OF the oak tree with
piece Of frosted cake in his hand.
Not I, for all your prizes! Besides,
wen each get a prize, anyhow. What
else are fairy godmothers for, I'd ike
to know"
But Otto felt differently. "Oh, it's
great fun to see the green things grow
ing" he would say in the early morn
ing. as he breathed the fragrance OF
the lilies or trained rose bush. I'm
going to surprise mother tonight with
the finest radishes she ever tasted,
and nobody knows yet that the melons
are forming on the vines under the
leaves"
Then, when his roses were at their
best, he took fine bunch to the Grip
pied boy, who lives at the end OF the
lane; and he often cut sweet peas and
mignonette for the tired dressmaker,
who sewed so steadily at her window.
Sometimes he stopped his work to car
~ a cool drink OF water from the
spring to travellers who passed the
house, or TO run for lump Of sugar for
old Jenny, the horse. He used to sell
vegetables sometimes, but he did not
forget that they were much fresher
than his mother could buy for herself,
and so he always begged her to use as
much, as she could from his garden.
Often Otto stopped to look up into
the blue sky and feel a great wave OF
loving gratitude fill his heart for the
beauty OF the summer and the clear
note OF the bobolink and the joy OF
healthy, happy work. Or he stroIied
through the woods, thinking: Gods
sunshine will take care Of my flowers
today" Sometimes he even took the
time to cultivate little corner OF
Karl's neglected garden; and then Karl
would seem to be interested, and some
times he would work quite well FOR a
whole day with Otto.
When the days were growing short
and the cold winds began to sweep
through the valley, the fairy godmoth'
er came again. Hans showed her the
store Of money he had earned, and
begged her to look at his bent shout
ders and hardened hands as evidence
Of his toll Karl stammered, and tried
TO make excuses. Otto smiled jOyouslS
into her eyes, and said, as he held out
the handful OF money he had earned;

MOSQUITOES AND COLORS.
The Insects Are Attracted by Som
and Repealed by Other
Hues.

The anopheles mosquito, says the Di-
etetic and Hygienic Gazette. is attract,
ed by some colors and repealed by 9th
ers. Experiments have been conduct
ed in a gauze tent, one end of which
was formed by large windows. Into
these the sunlight poured on bright
days. Large stone basins were placed
on the floor for the mosquitoes to breed
In.
1t was Immediately noticed that when
a person entered the tent clad in dark
gray clothes, the mosquitoes settled
on the cloth. When the person entered
was dressed in white flannel, they did
not approach him.
A number of boxes lined with cloth
Of various colors were placed on the
floor. and it was noticed that great
numbers of mosquitoes entered the box
lined with dark blue. Fewer of the
insects sought the boxes lined with
other colors, the number diminishing in
this order: dark red. brown, scarlet,
black, slate-gray, olive-green. violet,
leaf-green, blue, pearl-gray, pale green
light blue, ochre, white and orange.
No mosquitoes whatever were found in
the box lined with yellow.
The number of insects congregating
in houses might, therefore. easily be
lessened by the choice of suitable col.
ors applied to the walls. A trap lined
with something dark would attract SO
many insects that they could be slain
in large numbers. Mosquito-bars or
screens should be Of yellow; for blue OF
black attracts them and coaxes them
into finding admission.

It is now pretty generally understood
that Hon. L. F. Noel, OF Holmes county,
is candidate for governor, and that he
will soon make the announcement
Hattiesburg Progress.
We think Mr.. Noel has not reached a
final conclusion but that his candidacy
is probable. If elected governor, and we
think his outlook is good, the laws OF
this state will be enforced faithfully and
fearlessly. Public interests alone will be
consulted and it's welfare jealousy
guarded Public jobbery will receive g
knockout blow and syncophancy will
find neither tolerance or encouragement.
The courage to do right regardless OF
popular prejudice is inborn within him.
When it falls to his duty to defend a man
no matter how low down i'll the scales
OF humanity, he does it with the full
sanction of the law, preferring the ap-
proval ofhis own conscience to that OF
public applause or censure.-Lexington

and yet the boom has only begun

Since the taking Of the last census the

that the greatest progress has been

which at the time was regarded by
many as calamity, substantial brick
structures have been erected, and more
are now in course of fconstruction and

The building of the compress and the
completion of the incline to the river

the walls of the structure are going up

another busy scene is presented. The

the side track has been completed and

Road Machines for Bolivar County

At the recent meeting of the board of
supervisors an order was passed author
izing the purchase of FIVE road machines,
to be used on the public roads of the
county. That this will prove profit
able and wise investment will be shown
beyond doubt in the future. The aver
age public highway in this and other
Delta counties is disgrace to civiliza-
ton. During the rainy season the roads
are well nigh impossible, and farmers
and others are annually put to consider
able loss and inconvenience by reason of
their inability to get their produce to
market in season.
1t has been clearly demonstrated that
by the intelligent use of these machines
good roads may be had in even the low
est swanps and marshes, at compara-
lively small cost, and it is to be hoped
that, now the movement has been inau-
gurated, the good work will be contin-
ued until every section of the county is
traversed by a firm, well-drained high
way. The experiment in this county
will be eagerly watched, and there is 10
doubt of it's success.
On with the good work. Bolivar is
destined to be one of the greatest and
wealthiest counties of the state, and it is
well to keep to the front in the march of
progress and civilization Every inn
provement for the public good justifies
the expenditure.
