UNDER THE LONG LEAVED PINE.

heard the sweep of the restless breeze;
Like the ceaseless rush of the troubled
seas,
Whose wave on wave beats up on shore
AS millions have done in days of yore:
And there seemed to come from the
leafy crest
A sigh like the sigh Of soul distressed
And I thought of the days the land had
seen
When over it's fields the South was queen.
And I breathed prayer that it once
again
Might come meath the rule of the old
time men.
And after it's days of penitent shrift
Enjoy as of old it's prosperous thrift.
And win from the world its need of praise
AS it used to get in its halcyon days.

A Sailors Viewpoint.

Good table manners are all in the
way one looks at it. A mercantile
sailor eats with his sheath knife-the
same knife with which he cuts his to-
bacco and trims his nails-and when
he has finished eating he wipes it On
the leg of his pants and is ready for
the next meal. It is odd, but sailor is
always ready to eat. If one were to cut
ones self while eating with a knife,
the chances are that he would have but
a single wound, but If he punctured
his jowl with fork he would have
three wounds to look after. In case of
an accident the one who eats with his
knife would have the better of it.
remember young lady passenger
looking at the sailors eat their dinner.
She found it as novel and entertaining
as visitors do when they come into our
dining room at meal times. When she
saw an old sailor soaking his sea bis
cult, or bareback, in his coffee to soften
it, she said: "Oh mother, see that nice
clean old sailor, he washes his bread
before he eats it," But presently she
saw him drink the coffee and exclaimed:
"Look mother, he is drinking the dirty
black water he washed his bread inp'
Then she called him a beast. Little
she knew that that pint of black coffee
was sixth Of his days ration. A sail

did wash his bread in it. Z,
