Peace With Reason--A Comparison

The Baltimore SIM, of June A, after
enumerating the terms of peace between
Briton and Boer, says:
This is, indeed, "peace with reason" The
terms are, in fact, without a parallel in his
tory. 1t is only necessary to recall the treat
ment of the South after the Civil War to I'M
derstand how we'll the Beers have Jared as
compared with the soldiers ofthe Confederaey.
The South was devastated to far greater ex-
tent than the territory of the Boer republics.
Yet the victors did not offer pecuniary aid to
rebuild the burned homes and restock the
farms The South had to endure not only
poverty in its bitterest form, but negro domi-
nation as well. 1t was delivered over to the
tender mercies of Freedmen's Bureau, ex-
plotted by host of carpet baggers, plumber
ed right and left by horde of alien poll
tcians. Sherman characterized war as 'hell. )"
Reconstruction was infinitely worse than war.
Yet the theory of the Northern statesman was
that the Southern States were never out of
the Union, never aliens and foreigners, but
at the worst only "erring sisters" The peace
after the Civil War was peace with passion
and hatred. The Boer may be thankful that
his stout courage and skill in war have en-.
abled him to conclude "peace with reason. f"

Character in Ones Walk.

From the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
ssDo YOU know, I believe mans way
of thinking may be judged by the way he
walks, said studious young man re-
Gently, land / have come to that conclusion
after watching very closely number Of
men in my acquaintance. A man walk
as rule is governed by the condition of
his nerves, and it is safe to say that you
can Judge with reasonable certainty man
nervous temperament by the way he walks.
The walk, as matter of fact, gives even
a broader view of man character. You
can generally tell the industrious man from
the sluggard by the way he walks. The
Industrious, energetic fellow has snap in
his walk The lazy fellow almost drags
his feet, and shifts and SHAMELESS with an
indifference to duty which enables one to
classify him according to the way he acts
under circumstances which would call his
energies into play. In the same way one
may Judge Of man mental processes by
the way he walks. I guess you might
call it psychology of the legs. Take the
man whose walk is slow and sluggish, for
instance, and you can put him down as
thinking after the same fashion. IF he
walks after the fashion of the genuine
sluggard who hungers for little more
sleep and little more folding of the arms,
you can put it down as reasonably certain
that he will think in about the same way
/ do not mean to say that all men who
walk slowly are mental loafers. There is
the man, for instance, who has the DELHI
crate, substantial walk, the man who puts
his feet down slowly, but firmly and earn
estl,., like he was sure of what he was do
ing, and like he meant it. A man who
walks in this way generally thinks in
calm, deliberate and connected way. He
is deep thinker, in a way, and is at least
entitled to the credit of thinking earnestly.
Now mark the difference: Here is the quick,
frey and cratic thinker, with his quick,
snappy, jerky walk. He is bright
thinker. His replies are often keen and
cutting He is good in repartee. But
his analysis is often faulty. He will not
stick to a subject long enough to trace it
out in all of its bearings. His mind is as
active as his legs, but his thought lacks
continuity, and is rather inclined to break
into scintillating fragments. They shine
like jewels in many instances, sparkling
with a rare and charming radiance, and in
themselves they may sound the depths of
human philosophy. But our friend could
not trace the refnements which lie behind
his witty saying any more than he could
alter the color of his eyes. So | say, we
can learn much about a mans mental
habits by observing his walk.

A Plague OF Ants

Topeka, Kan, June ga plague of ants has
appeared in the northern central counties of
Kansas, and the insects are destroying the
alfalfa and wheat crops. All vegetation within
a radius of several feet of their hills is killed.
The ants are larger variety than ever seen in
the State before. They multiply very rapidly,
and the farmers are using every means to ex-
terminate them. The insects have invaded the
cities and towns, and are making life miserable
for the inhabitants. They are very vicious, and
do not hesitate to attack either person or
animals interfering with them.
