Tn Expressive Sentence.

A Cleveland lawyer tells the follow
ing story of an argument made by a
rural barrister before justice in
country court in Ohio: The case was
one in which the plaintiff sought to re-
cover damages from a railroad COM
pany for the killing of cow. During
the course of his argument the country
lawyer used this expressive sentence:
eff the train had been run as it
should have been ran, or if the bell
had been rung as it should have been
rang, or if the whistle had been blown
as it should have been blew, both of
which they did neither, the COW would
not have been injured when she was
killed.-Ex.

my Native BILLS.

My native hills, your clOud-capped heights
In fancy's vision greet me now,
see you bathed in mOrn's first light
Or kissed by ewes last fading glow.
I see you now. as when climbed
Your giddy heights so long ago,
Or with the warbling songsters joined,
Or watched the stream which danced below.
Your pine-clad tops of fadeless green
Are mirrored still within my breast,
And with their memory comes gleam
OF early scenes-of childhood's rest.
Methinks see you now, as when
My eyes looked back through falling tears,
And bade adieu to trees and glen,
And the loved home of early years.
Since then I've stood where sunbeams fall
On many brighter, fairer spot,
But still my heart was true through all
My native hills are not forgot.

CennysoR's Caetle$sne$s.

Several stories are told of Tennyson's
thoughtless speeches. "What fish is
this ?" he once asked his hostess where
he was dining. "Whiting," she replied.
"The meanest fish there is he re-
marked, quite unconscious that he
could have wounded any ones feelings.
Yet his kindness of heart was such
that when his partridge was afterward
given him almost raw he ate steadily
through it for fear his hostess might be
vexed.
On one occasion Tennyson was very
rude to Mrs. Brotherton, neighbor at
Freshwater. The next day he came to
her house with cabbage under each
arm.
81 heard you liked these, so brought
them," he said genially. It was his
idea of peace ofering.-Ex.

realization. He has invested himself
with so much honest pride and self
respect that he commands the respect
of others.
There are very few nations on the
face of the earth today so favored as
this,-only three or four that will stand
comparison; and in comparison we
have nothing to fear. Great as we are,
our future still lies before us and our
possibilities are beyond our conception.
Altho so young in years we are great
in achievement. We are not building
a structure to stand for day, but one
that will live for ages yet to come. We
are the grandest representative country
of liberty and equality, therefore we
need not stretch our conscience to be
loyal. "To be more of an American is
to be better man."
We represent progress in all things.
We stand for peace, prosperity and
contentment to greater extent than
the people of any other nation. We
do not live upon tradition nor are we
content to slide peacefully along in the
same old groove as our forefathers.
Old World precedent is all right in it's
way; but we prefer to establish our
own and proceed to do so when occa-
sion requires. Every day we are
assimilating new blood and new ideas
from abroad and from them we are
evolving men and things that are TAX
ing the place of the old and the worn
out. We are tactful, resourceful and
constantly theorizing and then turning
theory into practical results. We are
ever ready to extend helping hand to
our less fortunate brothers in the
Old World. When famine or pestilence
spreads havoc among their people, we
are first to respond and our contribu-
tions are never misery. Next to our
country, we love all men; for are we
not the offspring of these staid and
slow-going old world nations? Yes
we are composite and cosmopolitan,
and we are distinctly 1t. G. B. M.

whistIins.

AS method of prolonging life and
strengthening the human frame against
sickness whistling is seid to be beyond
compare. Development of chest and
neck muscles is one of the special ad-
vantages claimed for the exercise.
Long, deep breathing is an essential
for good whistler, as it is not per-
missib!e to draw in the breath except
during the intervals of the sound pro.
duction.-Ex.

Decoration Day.

We love, this day, to decorate
The graves of friend and foe,
And thus In honor demonstrate
The strife of years ago;
Our noble heroes, North and South,
Have long since found the truth.
Their glories, told from mouth to mouth,
Will live in sacred youth.
In reverence of deeds we'll done,
In hope that wars will cease,
We pray, with simple hearts, the one,
For universal peace.

Progressive America.

Seat of Civilization" by G. 5.
i is my only excuse for the fol-
lowing: Upon the great stage
of everyday life, the American man of
action is the star and stands out in
bold relief, foremost among the men of
every nation. He is supreme in his
there is none other like
him. He represents the best citizen
ship of the Old World, amalgamatedin-
to a newer and higher citizenship in
the New World. AS the American has
gained in stature by this coalesence, so
has he gained in intellect, in thrift and
in force Of character. Wherever he
has been placed he has proven his SUI
periority. Upon the field of battle or
as sailor upon the high seas; whether
contesting with ironclad monsters,
whose terrible batteries belch forth
death and destruction, or with white
winged racers in friendly rivalry;
whether in the fields of science, COM
merce or athletics, the result was ever
the same. AS one writer has put it:
"This is the man who has compelled all
Europe TO sit up and take notice. He
has taught the English, Germans,
French and Italians the art of luxurious
comfort, compelling them to remodel
their railroad systems and their hostel
ries. He uses millions as the people of
the Continent would use farthings or
centimes. He buys the Old Worlds
masterpieces, or steamship lines, &C.
cording to his monetary moods"
This young man, with his cosmopoli-
itan ideas, is very potent factor in
the affairs of the world. He has practi-
cal mind and education. He may be a
millionaire, nevertheless he is toiler.
He is chivalrous, open hearted and
above all independent. He has keen
sense of humor and knows how to en-
JOY life better than any other man on
the face of the earth.
His country is so large, not only in
the vastness of its territory, but in its
greatness as nation, that he finds it
necessary for him to be constantly
on the move to keep up with the on
ward march of his fellow citizens.
In no other country is the pace of pro-
gression so swift and sure. The fever
of ambition burns hot in the veins of
youth and middle age; and even old
age cannot quench the lusty fires of
ambition.
Having such great country, it is
easy for him to be intensely patriotic
and he wakes enthusiastic whenever
he has occasion to extol its virtues.
1t would be impossible for the Amer
ican of today to fix his affections on
such country as one of the South
American republics Such a country
would be swamped by his exuberance
of patriotism. No, an American must
have something great to love; some
thing progressive; something that
commands the respect of strangers;
something infinitely superior to HIM
self, and this he finds in this glorious
land of the free. The American is
something of boaster; but he has a
right to boast, and can do so without
appearing ridiculous. He is also, per-
haps dreamer, and may indulge his
fancy in limitless ideals for his coun-
try's future without despairing of their

RECORD BREAKER IN
LUMBER SHIPMENTS
Co. Sent Out the Largest Cargo
Yesterday That Ever Left savannah

Of standard size. Some idea of the size
Of the cargo can best be gathered
from the fact that 1t is valued at more
than $4,000.
Mr.. Harvey Granger, senior men,
Der of the Granger-Stubbs Lumber
Company, says the trend of the coast
wise business in lumber is toward
shipping by steamers because of the
advantages of quick delivery, the
greater cargo that can be carried, and
other considerations. He expects to
have within the next month or two, two
or three cargoes that will be quite as
large as that just shipped, probably
much larger, each reaching a total
OF more than 100000 feet.
The Nyassa is well-known in Sa-
vannah. About eighteen months ago
she went ashore off Ossabaw Island
while laden with a cargo of pyrites
and had to be towed into this port
and later taken to New York for re-
pairs.
