We are creditably informed that the
railroad scheme, from Conway to
southport is being pushed forward
with dispatch while we also hear that
another line from the coal fields of
Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee
has actually acquired terminal ac-
commodation in Southport and in a
short while Old Brunswick will wake
UP with the scream of locomotives in
the air everywhere. SO mote it be

LAUGHS AND

French Specialist Tells How the
Former Betrny the Latter.
A wise specialist in Paris on the
throat and voice has discovered that
every man unconsciously betrays his
character when he laughs, says the
Paris correspondent of the New York
World.
So does every woman. So to study
your sw%eetheart's silyery exclamation
is to probe the recesses of her mind,
Thus many unhappy marriages can be
avoided. This learned specialist an
nounces in a French review that each
person laughs in n or the vowel
sounds.
The man or onla who laughs IN
"a" who emits a hearty "Ha-ha." is.
frank. loyal and loves noise and move
ment.
Those who laugh in sc" French y
are phlegmatic, some of them even
melancholic. Their forced "He-he!"
comes from no sense of forgiveness
nor is it impelled by amusement.
The timid. the irresolute, the naive

and the pliable laugh in II" (English
e.. So do children, says this student
of laughs, and most Americans will
agree that children and foolish young
women gigg,e in &C."
The laugh in "O' indicates on the
one side generosity and good compan-
ionship, on the. other holiness or bru-
tality. Never a villain ina melodrama
but who Knocked his victim with a
"Ho-ho!'
Those who laugh in "U' are misan-
thropes, and the hateful noise they ut
ter when they grin should warn their
fellow creatures against them.
The specialist has not yet c%atalogued
the character of the persons who laugh
in 'Y."

Profits In Pecan Raising.

Some of the finest pecans in the
world are said to be raised in Florida,
where the industry is becoming impor-
tant. A long time, eleven years. is re-
quired for a pecan grove to come to
maturity, so that it requires patience
to wait for the profits, but there are
records of single trees yielding as
much as sic worth of nuts in a single
season. In Jacksonville twenty-six
trees lining IN avenue yielded 800
pounds of nuts that sold for $16O in
cash. And at the same time the trees
adorned the avenue and added greatly
to it's attractiveness. = Jacksonville

TEN YEARS RECORD OF NATu-
REALIZATION I'm MONTANA.
CANADA GAVE MOST FREELY
Leads All Other Lands Contributing
to states Citizenship Dur
ing Last Decade.

During the last 10 years the courts
of Montana, district and United
States, have added 1882 citizens to
the population Of the country. OF this
number the largest proportion was
contributed by Canada, of whose sons
4,377 renowned their allegiance to
the crown of Great Britain and swore
fidelity to their Uncle Sam. Ireland
was next, with 1882, figures that in
former years used to be reversed, as
the largest number of naturalizations
at n time were issued to men from
the Emerald Isle.
Going back to 1894, the year of the
final capital contest, the state statis-
teal bureau has made a compilation
of figures showing the number OF
aliens n%aturalized by all the courts
of the state having authority to con-
fer the rights Of citizenship. The
initial year of the record was the
heaviest. Every man whom it vas

forced to take out his papers" Votes
were wanted then as they probably
have never since been wanted, and
few were overlooked. For that year
the total of naturalizations aggregated
1894. OF this number 656 e granted
by the federal court. A noteworthy
fact in connection with the figures
given by the bureau for the period
mentioned is that the naturalizations
of 1894 constitute 42.54 per cent of the
entire number in 10 years.
For Two Years Past.

Furs md the Throat.

Nine. Antoinette Sterling was a great
advocate Of fresh air. Not only did
she regularly patronize the tops of
buses, but even when in a cab b sat
in the back seat and kept both Win
dows open. Furthermore, she always
declined to wear any fur OR wrap round
her neck and used to declare that peo-
pie who coddled their Threats often
caught colds, but that she never did.
A celebrated example like this is worth
quoting since all the medical teaching
is entirely in accord with her theory

Meat Eating and Appendicitis.

Recent Investigations made by sur

~isfaction at least, that the prevalence
Of appendicitis is in exact proportion
to the prevalence of meat ealing. This
may or may not be true, hut a person
who is suffering from appendicitis or
any other disease will not lose any
thing by aDstaining from the use OF
meat for a time and noticing the eff
feet on his complaint. This much may
be said even if vegetarianism is a de-
lusion.-Chicago Chronicle.

1t will be noticed that those tor
1902 greatly exceed those for last
year. The reason is easily given-it
was a campaign year. AS a general
election takes place this year, the
next report will undoubtedly show a
marked increase in 1904 over 1903.
While not the least, still Yellowstone
county does not loom up very big
