GIRLS SWEAR In NEW ENGLAND.

1t is reported from New Haven,
Conn, that budget of the best girls
of that city turned out the following
brood of resolutions for the New
Year:
1--WE will use no slang.
I'VE will not swear.
I'VE will not lose our tempers.
eve will not gossip or say mean things
about folks.
"we will not fidget, fret or fuss SO as to
disturb others.
I'VE will not let a day pass without
doing something TO make somebody more
comfortable.
1--WE will not laugh at the mistakes OF
others.
I'VE will not handle the truth care
lessly.
"We will not say anything to make
another unhappy"
Why should people bind themselves
to perform what is beyond human
ability? 1t is strange that when a
fellow-and it seems to be the same
way with girls-gets the good-reso-
luton fit upon him, he undertakes
tne regimen or an old-tlme hermit.
The thing can't be done.
However, things are coming to a
pretty pass in staid New England
when the damsels of the best families
have to swear off swearing. How
times change, and how people change
with them! Away back in 1873 OF

NEWSPAPER RELIGION.
(Richmond Nesos. }

In yesterdays paper we paid a
tribute to the honorable conduct of
the editorial staff of the Columbia
Stote in connection with the assassi-
nation of Editor Gonzales, and in
the Washington Post we find the
following paragraph:
"The Columbia State has not ceased to
be newspaper, notwithstanding the
assassination of It's executive head. The
States news columns have been entirely
free from bias, and Mr.. Tillman's most
partisan friends cannot complain of the
manner In which he has been treated by
that paper. The Columbia State IL a

If the editors and reporters of
the State newpaper had followed
their own inclinations, being stirred
to the depths by feeling of
Indignation and outrage, they
would have made it red hot for
Lieutenant-Governor Tillman, who
fired the fatal bullet. But their

the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength

The fact that it is the best

to why it does what it does.

Northern Neck Cans More Tomato
Than Rest OF State.
(Potonldc PreQres,

(fotonadc fregress.)
The PROGRESS has made a persistent {
effort to get report from all of the
canneries of the Northern Neck as to
the number of cases of tomatoes put
up by them during the last year. We
give the names and figures as far as
we have received the reports. The
output of these canneries heard from
amounts to 195,200 cases. The
American Grocers' report gives the
entire output of all the canneries of
Virginia and West Virginia as 444,-
599. 1t will thus be seen that these
five counties have put up more than
half OF the tomatoes put up in the
balance of this State and the whole
of West Virginia.
The following is the list of can
neries reported to us:
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1903-02-06

1t is with regret that we are unable
to furnish complete list, but we are
sure that the canneries not heard
from would give this section more
than quarter million cases of toma-
toes. And this will doubtless be
greatly increased during the present
season as there are to be a number of
new canneries added to those now
being operated.
In recent issue of the VIRGINIA
CITIZEN our Heathsville correspon-
dent states that there are eleven can
neries in Northumberland county.
Only two are recorded above, thus
making the report still more favor
able to the Northern Neck.

BEAR WELL.

Cucumbers planted the first Of
May will begin to bear about the last
of June and will continue with un-
diminished vigor until nearly the
end of August. Cucumbers planted
later will begin later, but will cease
to bear at the same time that the
earlier planted ones stop. As those
beginning to bear the first of August
stop at the same time as those begin
ming the last of June, it is easy to
see that the earliest bearing patch
chat the weather permits of is the
most profitable.

A Medal for Good Mature.

A medal for pure and aunmitigated
good-nature was awarded, not many
days ago, to youth in a public school.
He had not made a noteworthy record
for progress in learning; he had not
even reached point beyond the aver
age among his fellows; he had simply
eclipsed them all in amiability of the
kind that accepted rewards or punish
ments with urbane and equal philoso-
ply. And the fact that a medal was
deemed not too honorable for him un-
der the circumstances is significant
evidence of the high esteem in which
good-nature is held. How it does oil
the creaking wheels of life, to be sure!
How smooth it makes the path! What
comfortable and comforting compan-
ion a truly aniable person is, If he is
only a dogl When everything and
everybody else have ruffled the wrong
way. and made every individual set of
injured feelings one possesses stand up
like ouills upon the fretful porcupine,
how soothing to step into the atmos-
phere of the amiable person! Serenity
enters. peace sets in, you laugh, he
laughs, the world turns rose-colored
again. Availability accomplishes what
no sermon could. 1t is an ifnmeasur-
able influence for good. 1T is, there
fore with satisfaction that we note the
presentation of medal to the good
natured boy. Why would it not be a
valuable custom TO introduce into all
our schools ?-Harper's Weekly.

ex-Mayor Milliken has embarked in
company with James W.. Parker and
A. w. Brown of Portland. These gen.
tlemen have associated themselves to-
gether in corporation known as The
st. John Lumber Company, with a
paid up capital of s25O,OO0, and right
to increase Same to 100000. They
have bought out the Van Buren, Lurn-
Der Company, with it's shore rights,
and holding grounds in the vicinity of
Frenchville and Van Buren,, thereby
securing one of the finest mill sites in
the whole county. They are now at
work on the construction of a gigantic
mill. on the st. John river, about two
miles and a half up the river from Van
Buren,, which is one of the largest en-
terprises now on foot in the State of
Maine. This mill will comprise two
large buildings. The main mill will be
60x150 feet and the shingle mill 50x100.
Their combined output will be twenty
million feet of long lumber, and thirty
million shingles annually 1t is thought
that this big industry will add fully
two thousand souls to the population
of Van Buren, within the next two
years.
The Bangor and Aroostook Railroad
has a large crew at work, at the pres
ent time, extending their track from
Van Buren,, to this new mill. In con-

occupies an anomalous position, be-
cause the family do not want her to
eat with them, and she won't eat with

disagreeable for the Others unless it's
a big house with many servants. Wom-
en- with moderate incomes can't afford
a housekeeper, either visiting or resi-
dent; rich women with palaces and
large staffs of servants must have one
in the house all the time. But women
who come in between the two find the
visiting housekeeper great conven-

equality with the mistress. 1 go early

to be very heavily timbered with

GENERAL UTILITARIANs.
Two Enterprising Women With Many
Occupations.

General utility men-that's what we
are" said the younger of the two part
ners. whatever one gentleWoman
can do for another and do better than
a mere servant can do it, we do. From
opening and cleaning houses and mar
keting for out-of-toWn customers, up
to engaging servants, selling works OF
art commission and entertaining child
rem, there is nothing we won't ana
can't do"
Il think we're the first of our kind,
put in the elder partner, readJustins
her Widows weeds over the chair pack.
..Of course, lots of women have done
these things singly," she continued
but no two women ever organized a
firm to cover them all at once. I'm the
pioneer in it. Last spring l did visiting
housekeeping. 1 thought l saw an
opening for the other lines, so 1 took a
partner, and here we are, with an office
of our own and almost as much as we
can do
Were a couple of reduced gentle
women" added the other merrily, as II
being reduced were the greatest of
good luck. This building is full of re-
duced gentlewomen. The street is full
of them. 1t ought to be called Gentle
woman's Row, or something of the
kind, instead of West-st."
The partners maintained a Box-and
Coxlike form of dialogue, addressed
partly to each other, partly to their
visitor. AS the younger woman-she
also was widow, and wore black-had
just spoken, it was clearly the elder
ones turn.
"Inventorying Is an important part
of our work. she said. Suppose you
are going TO let your apartment or
house. 1t stands to reason some things
will be lost, some broken, some stolen,
perhaps, before you take your premises
back again. If you don't know precise
ly what you had, you will inevitably be
the loser. because the tenant will stout
y assert that the lost and stolen things
were not there to start with and that
the broken things were already broken
when he rented the place. He has you,
unless you have an inventory of your
goods and chattels.
''Or suppose your house catches fire
and all your clothes and furniture go
up in smoke. 1t lieth not in the power
of woman, or man, either, to remember
every single, solitary article of which
they stood possessed, and you will in
evitably lose at the hands of the in
surance company when you come to
adjust your claims. If you have an
inventory you can insure your stuff
