He is one of the most popular men in Selma and his retirement from active life is greatly regretted. Keipp's Restaurant has been the scene of many a famous gathering of the great men of Alabama, and link between the present and the past is broken.

 The Court of County Revenues con vened this morning for It's regular July term with all members present including Probate Judge P II. Pitts and Messrs. Kirkpatrick. Phillips, Minter and Martin. The most important business considered was the adoption of a new road tax law which is to be advertised at once and presented to the Legislature at the ear Hest opportunity. The law practically re- duces the road tax from 8 to S. At pres ent citizens of the County are assessed for ten days labor on the road or for 30 cents a day therefor. amounting to $5. The new law will if passed, provide that citizens are to pay s as a regular fiat rate tax in lieu of working the roads ten days.
 The law would also give the Court of Revenues purchasing powers to buy ev- erything needed to work the roads with. The County has purchased a gravel pit near Tyler from c. J. Minter to be used in improving the Summerfed road.
 A number of persons whose property assessments had been changed appeared before the court. In most instances the Board stood for increase though in few instances the valuations were lowered.

PAPER FROM sAwpUsT.

There seems TO be no longer room for
seriously questioning the fact that pine
wood is good for paper stock. Spruce
has heretofore been almost exclusively
used. The spruce forests are being
rapidly depleted, so that up to within
a short time the question of substi-
tute for spruce wood in paper making
was a serious one. A year or more
ago experiments were made with the
pine wood of the South, to see If its
fiber would or not make a fair article
of paper. Early efforts at paper MAX
ing from pine were not highly success
full, on account of the amount of resin
Gus matter combined with the fiber;
but this difficulty and others have
been obviated to the extent that sat
isfactory grade of white printing pa
per is being now made from Southern
pine.
A paper mill running on pine exclu-
sively is in operation at Orange, Tex,
and the newspaper of that town, the
Tribune, is printed on pine fiber paper.
The Tribune says that the paper stock
is made from pine shavings and the
sawdust from the lumber mills in the
vicinity. Spruce wood for paper max
$3.50 per cord; the pine shavings and
sawdust cost practically nothing be-
yond transportation from the lumber
mills to the paper mill. They are waste
products of the lumber mills which the
lumbermen are glad enough to give
at Orange has presented to the paper
mill little pile of sawdust that will
keep the iron stomachs" of the pulp
plant full for at least twelve months"
1t requires eight cords of spruce to
make five tons of paper. The raw ma
terial for five tons of spruce fiber pa
per, therefore, costs $60.40. The cost of
raw material for one ton of such pa
per is $12.OS. Three tons of pine shaw
ings or sawdust will make one ton of
rial of this sort at 81 per ton, there
Is total raw material cost of SO per
ton of finished product. as against
$12 .OS for the spruce. The Orange pa
per mill is selling it's finished stuff at
$40 ton at the car side. The plant
cost $1o5,OOO
1t seems that this matter of manu-
featuring paper from the waste of the
lumber mills is well worth the atten-
ton of Georgians. Millions of feet of
pine timber go to waste at Georgia
lumber mills every year in the saw
dust and shaving piles. If this stuff
can be made into a product worth $40
a ton it is very unwise to permit it to
continue TO go to waste.

1t is said that a farmer living near

The farmer, thinking he had chance
to dispose of several of his COWS at
good prices, drove two more out of the
barn, and offered the three to the
stranger for $500.
"All right" said the stranger, be-

Don't throw anything at the fellow
who assails your ears with shrill re-
minders Of the good old summer time,
the Florodora seXtette, Mr.. Dooley or
Nancy Brown. 1t may be that he is
not whistling to keep his courage up
or for want of thought, but by the or
ders of his physician. For, be it
known, some advanced devotees of the
science of healing have ascertained, af-
ter experiments and mature deliber-
alton, that whistling is a specific for
certain and sundry ailments And
not only that, but it is a preventive of
bad habits.
Whistling, we are told, exercises GER
tain muscles of the throat and thus
makes them strong and healthy. When
these muscles are in first rate order
the flow of salivary juices is promoted,
and thus digestion is aided. In
whistling the lungs also are exercised,
with beneficial results. A person who
can whistle loud enough to be heard
three or four blocks is pretty certain
not to be afflicted with consumption or
asthma. Again, whistling may have
the effect of checking and curing in
cipient affections of the throat or
lungs by exercising the parts and set
ting up a renewal of retarded circula-
ton, just as vigorous massage will
take the soreness out of the arm that
has been hit with brick. This gives
some idea of the therapeutic value of
whistling.
Now as to the moral value of
whistling. That it is a preventive of
bad habits can be easily demonstrated.
No small boy can possibly whistle and
smoke a cigarette at one and the
same time; and if he is in love with his
tune he would rather whistle than
smoke. The whistler is seldom if ever
a drunkard; and the drunkard is never
whistler. for the obvious reason that
he can't pucker his lips hard enough
to make a sibilant sound. If he could,
there would be danger of the friction
of the outrushing breath causing an
SApiOSlou' II was d wise provision OF
nature that took away from the
drunken man the ability to whistle.
Talking to ones self is regarded as a
symptom of weakmindedness and APP
preaching dementia. The person who
whistles cannot possibly talk to him.
self at the same time. therefore logi-
cally whistling is a specific for the alb
sent-minded monologue and a proven
tive Of paresis. The honest mechanic
goes whistling about his work, but no
burglar ever whistles as he works
Whistling at the task ones hands
md TO do Is to be encouraged.
