Optimism is one of the supreme
sedatives. There are men who worry
because the sun will some time 60 out
and the earth grow dead and cold
like the moon; or the fertile areas of
the world dry up because of the denu-
dalton of forests, but the philosophy
of health is that the best things have
not happened, that mans history has
ONLY lust begun, that, on the whole,
there has been steady progress, that in
virtue, comfort, knowledge, arts, reli-
gion, and nearly, If not quite all the
essentials of the further development
OF man, faith in human nature and
belief in q future better than the pres
emit is the conclusion of every philoso-
ply Of development and evolution.
1t Is our good fortune to live in a day
of the evolution of evolution, and this
is giving a new meaning to the very
word progress and makes us feel that
the world is rational and beneticent to
the core, and that where conscious
purpose and effort fail we sink back
into everlasting arms. This is a sani-
flying point of view authorized now
by both science and religion, and is a
good psychic state to sleep on or in
which to enter the great rest.
There are more sufferers from con-
stipation than from any other enemy
of our race; there is a long train of an
moving ills as a direct result, aud there
is nothing 80 effective in its treatment

We was down to Memphis week
come Thursday and a lot of gumheads
said that we was two stepping down
Main street. The statement is false.
We was only practicing the DuBarry
walk and we have it all down fine ex-
cept the hen-shuffle, and we amt built
right to do that.-Hardeman Free

The negroes of Havana, Cuba met in
mass meeting last Sunday, and pro-
tested against the way the Palma gov
eminent treated them in reference to
giving them them place in official life.
These outbreaks are only the mutter-
ing before the storm. Uncle Sam will
probably have to put the flag back in
Cuba to stay. If the Cubans car hold
the government az established by the
Americans it viii be almost a miracle,
The sugar industry of the United
States has arrayed itself against the
future annexation of Cuba, and iudg-
ing by the strength they have showI
in defeating reciprocity legislation fol
Cuba, it will be sometime before Cubs
will be allowed to come in. The sugar
people claim the annexation of Cubs
would destroy the sugar industry il
the United States. That the people
would be benefited thereby, does no.
cut any figure in the sugar trust calcu
lations.
