We arc glad 20 learn that Ian
caster will contribute something
to the Hampton monumen, fund.
The Daughters of the ConfedoracN
Will take the initiative and within
the next few weeks will have
what will he termed u champion
enicrtainmcnt'- ga floral fair, with
probably an apron or collar sale,
and serving refreshments, all for
the benefit of the fund.
If the OLD soldiers will each
make Il small contribution and our
young men help in this worthy
cause it would be an easy matter
to raise one or two hundred dol>
lars additional to what our patrio-
tic women will raise. We should
esteem tia glorious privilege to
contribute to a monument to this
noble son of our state that gener-
ations unborn may know the high
re gard ard esteem in which we
hold him for his great aYhieve-
ment in battle, and his leadership
in redceming the State from ne
gro domination and negro rule.

Travel

1t sometimes seems that the luxury
of going somewhere is made to over
balance the JOY of being in places.
Travel is often mere gadding from
place to place, and your tourist d
person who travels, as on II wager, to
see how many towns he can visit in
the least possible time. The wise
man, however, will avoid such mis-
takes, and will go to new countries or
new sections of his own to observe
manners and customs. 1t is not
paradoxical to say that we travel in
foreign places that we may know our
selves and our own ways better. t.
see great buildings and monuments, to
observe methods Of work, to see
how the other nations sleep and
eat and take their amusements-
these are valuable for comparison.
By knowing what others do we may
improve ourselves. We may read
from breakfast to bedtime, but the
information is secondhanded. What
one learns by experience he remem.
bers. And SO we are glad that travel
has been made easy, and we urge
people to see as much of the world as
possible.
But il modern travel is luxurious,
it is great mistake to suppose that
travel is only for the wealthy, and that
it is only profitable when taken on "A
velvet cushion. A man may see the
oest part of life and of Nature ut very
small expense. Going abroad now
adays costs little if one is not too
vain to take modest accommodations
on carriers and at inns; while journeys
on bicycles or afoot, besides being
cheap, place one in touch with the
people as nothing else can. Yet one
does not have to go abroad to see the
world. Gilbert White was traveller
in a parish; Thoreau scarce went out
OF New England. Some Of the most
stimulating travels are made near
home. If you cannot 60 to Europe,
at least see large city or two IN your
own land. II you cannot do this,
walk into the next county or take Il
boat down your own stream. There
is so much worth seeing on the
earth that every part OF it, however
poor and however seemingly common
place, holds many treasures for the
properly prepared mind.-June Won.

1t beats thunder how tales can get
started. A little while back he v had
it going that IA bomb shell had ex-
ploded right under the nose OF the
young King OF Spain and blowed all
the buttons off His Royal Highness's
uniform, and that if he hadn't es-
capped with his life he would have been
killed, But now they tell us that the
king was two miles away when the
bomb exploded and knew nothing
about it, and also that it was not
much OF an explosion nohow. That
sounds SO much like the reports we
get from Democratic papers these
days stating that the Republicans
have been swept from the face Of the
world, but when the true report comes
in we find the Republicans right side
up and in the saddle, and going ahead
lis usual, with not even hair OF their
heads scorched in the fiery political
conflict. Such is life.
