Collections not so food.

sSay, understand that it is le-
ported that taxes are coming in
nicely, said Deputy Core this
morning. "But you can say in the
paper that this is not correct. The
east side is very slow The west
side is doing well. All taxes must
be paid on or before the first of June
or there will be trouble then and there
after for delinquents. 1t takes some
money to run this county and people
who owe taxes must come forward
and settle if they want to be spared
trouble and expense"

LIKES NEW PLAN.

system of Holding Chapel Exercises.

Visitor here C0mmends the Present
system of Holding Chapel Exercises.
A prominent West Vlrginian who
was here to visit his son, student
at the West Virginia University for
some time, remarked that he was
well pleased with all the heads of
same and as a West Virginian, felt
great pride in this, her highest
educational institution.
tThe one thing more than another
however, that attracted my atten-
ton favorably, was the chapel ex-
ercises. DR.. P. B. Reynolds, the
chaplain is ripe in years and ex-
perience, a Christian gentleman, the
kind of man one feels content to
have his son emulate. Every father
who has a son in attendance at this
school should urge him to attend
these exercises, and insist that he
become personally acquainted with
the chaplain"
The chapel exercises of the Uni
versity are. a departure from the
system in use in colleges and un
iversities generally. Attendance
upon these exercises is entirely vol
untary la addition to the devotion
al exercises, which consist of sing
ing, reading the Scriptures and
prayer, lecture is given at each
meeting. These lectures constitute
course in Biblical studles-there
are four full courses in all--history
OF the Bible, people of the Bible,
religions and institutions Of the
Bible, and literature of the Bible.
One of these courses is given each
year. The work in such courses for
a term is equal to one third of a full
University course Students enroll
for these courses 10 the regular way.
They are required TO take mites OF
the lectures, write them up, give
written answers to set of review
questions each week, and preserve
their note books and work at the
end Of the term. If the work is sat
isfactory. the student gets credit
for one third Of a course-a full
course for the session. These courses
are made as thorough and as profit
able as the work in other depart
ments. This plan has helped to
solve the vexed question of chapel
exercises in State University.

A Wilding of Vivid Hue.

To low, moist meadows in PPnnsyI-
vania, or the pine swamps in New Jer-
sey, we must in the autumn search for
that richest of natures wildings, the
Cardinal Flower, whose tall recemes OF
intense vermillion blossoms, as If suf-
fused with the blood of some wild
wood creature, peep out shyly from be-
meath overarching boughs of alder and
blackberry bushes. The depth and
brilliancy of the hue of this flower has
suggested its name, from the color of
the famous hat worn by seventy eccle.
siastical princes of the Roman Church.
Because of this vivid hue few who
see it in its haunts can withstand the

Une of the best crops to grow in Il
young orchard is the bush bean. 1t
takes no nitrogen from the soil, but
rather adds to it, and n good crop Of
beans will pay for manuring and the
cultivation of the orchard. The bean
vines make good mulch for the trees,
and they are a crop that can be grown
many years on the same soil. The in
sects and fungous diseases of the beans
and the orchard differ so much that
we do not know of any one that will
affect the other OF course as the trees
begin to cover and shade the ground
the space devoted to the beans must
be narrowed up until they are discard
ed entirely.

THE FoUNT OF YOUTH.

The fount of youth has oft been sought
Since days of long ago,
And oft in fancy men have seen
Its living waters flow.
Through desert swamp and wilderness
The search has been pursued,
In hope that by the magic fount
Youths dreams might be renewed.
But men have turned from that vair
quest,
Their hopes forever crushed,
For though they searched through all the
world
No magic fountain gushed.
And men resigned themselves to age
That robbed them of their grace,
That sapped their strength and thickly
Times wrinkles on the face,
In later years mems thoughts have turned
To plans for longer life,
And in elixirs they have sought
New strength for daily strifs.
And oft tits heralded abroad
That scientist or sage
Has finally evolved a plan
To stay the blight of age.
But men grow old, and women, too,
As in the days of yore,
For no eliXirs they have tried
Their youthful charms restore.
And as they can't deceive themselves
Some seek to hide the truth,
And dye or bleach their hair and paint
On cheeks the hues of youth.
The fount of youth is in each heart,
And those who keep it pure
Will longer hold the charms of youth
And length of life secure
And when at last that fountain falls,
And old age on them steals,
They'll bear it well because no man
Is older than he feels.
