Erench Scientists.

Consul General John K. Gowdy, IN
report from Paris to the state depart
ment, describes a new method OF exter-
minating rats and mice.
The process was devised by the Pas-
teur Institute, and use Is made Of MI
crobes. Scientists recently expert
rnented on a tract of nearly 5000 acres
badly infested with vermin. Four tons
of bread and nine tons Of oats were
used as bait. These had been treated
with a solution in which the microbes
were cultivated, and were placed near
the holes made by the rodents.
The scientists estimated that they
killed fully IS per cent Of the rats and
mice living in the tract treated. A held
of two and half acres was chosen, ana
12,4S4 ratholes were counted. THESE
were closed, and two days later 1t was
found that 1904 had been opened.
The bait was used, and eight Gays
later only 81 holes had been opened.
Fifteen and 20 rats were frequently
found dead in one hole. The chamber
Of deputies has been asked to pass
law requiring farmers to cooperate to
exterminate rats with microbes. The
government will furnish the solution.
The cost Of the cultures" Is three
cents an acre.-New York Times.

1t seems superflous to speak Of the
indispensableness Of the reading Of
the Bible in character building. Gods
word Is the peculiar food Of the soul.
No one can afford not to be an earn
est, regular reader Of the Bible. Yet
how neglected this Is, even in our
Christian homes. Wesley's remark
that many can write their damnation
in the dust on their Bible lids" is sad
ly applicable.
I will close with mention Of the
Sabbath as affording opportunity for
religious reading. "The Sabbath was
made for man." It meets his needs in
many particulars. Among these needs
is opportunity for reading the Bible
and other religious literature. OF
what priceless worth would the Sab
bath be If taken advantage Of for this
purpose, instead Of being spent In list
less longing, or looking for some idle
person to help pass away the tedium
Of its sacred hours. 8. II. HAY.

THE RIGHT OF THE SOUTH.
Facts Suggested by Interview o
Congressman lever.
TO Be CONTINUED.

Facts Suggested by Interview of
Congressman Lever.
These remarks are attributed by the
Washington correspondent Of the New
York Herald to the Hon. Asbury
Francis Lever, representative in con-
gress from the seventh district of
South Carolina:
Forty years have passed since
the civil war. We are in the Union.
We cast the only solid Democratic
vote, and yet we are denied any con-
siderable weight in making the policy
Of the party. This state of affairs
should change, and In 1908 I would
not be surprised to see the south united
on some strong southern man for the
nomination. We are not only the
conservative element in the Demo-
cratic party, but we are the great
conservative element in the country,
and the country needs that conserv-
atism in the management Of its affairs y
If we are not mistaken, Mr.. Lever
Is the youngest member Of the house.
The civil war had been over almost
ten years when he was born. OF his
six colleagues from South Carolina In
the present congress only three were
living when Moultrie opened fire on
Sumter and of these elders one was
only three years old then, and another
less than two months. The patriarch
of the South Carolina delegation. Mr..
Croft of Aiken, was yet a boy when
Lee surrendered.
How can these Southern Demo-
Gratis, representative Of the Democracy
of today, citizens Of a state as fully
identified with the interests and senti-
ments which make our indissoluble
Union, and as loyal to its flag and its
future as any state in the northern
tier between New England and the
Pacific accept as valid an unwritten
law excluding them from the office of
president? How can they be expected
to comprehend the reasonableness OF
principle denying to the southerner MS
equal rlSHt to pe ioiiii''
president by his party?
There is no such law and there is
no longer any such principle OF po-
litical expediency. The ghost or the
old tradition of the ineligibility OF the
southern Democrat for nomination
would vanish upon the appearance OF
a leader from the south. whether In
1908 or in 19O4.-New York Sun.

darted around corner, and there,
breathing deeply. tenderly removed 1t,
then borrowing paper and cord at a
neighboring store wrapped 1t neatly
and stole back to the printing office, on
the ground floor of the Herald building.
and left the package in the hands of
Bud Tipworthy, charging him to care
for it IS for his own life end not to
open it, but if the lady so much as set
one foot out of doors before his return
to hand it to her with the message,
"He borrowed another off ]. Hankins.'
Left alone, the lady went to the desk
and stood for time looking gravely at
Harkless' chair. She touched it gently.
as she had touched it once before that
morning, and then she spoke to 1t as II
he were sitting there and as she would
not have spoken had he been sitting
there.
"You didn't want gratitude, did
you?" she whispered, with sad lips.
Soon she smiled at the blue ribbon,
patted the chair gayly on the back and,
seizing upon pencil and pad. dashed
into her work with rare energy. She
bent low over the desk, her pencil NOV
ing rapidly. She seemed loath to pause
for breath. She had covered many
sheets when Fisbee returned, and as
he came in softly in order not to dis
turb her she was so deeply engrossed
that she did not hear him. nor did she
look up when Parker entered. but pur-
sued the formulation Of her fast flying
ideas with the same single purpose
and abandon. So the two men sat and
waited while their chieftainess wrote
absorbedly. At last she glanced up
and made a little startled exclamation
at seeing them there and then gave
