Drift of Popnlation to the cities.

No tendency of modern times has
caused so much uneasiness in the
minds of social philosophers and re-
formers as the drift of population from
the rural districts TO the cities. That
this tendency is deplorable is admitted
on all hands, but there is no general
agreement as to what should be done
to discourage it. Recently, however,
public speakers and writer's have been
insisting that the way to keep the
bright young men and women on the
farms is to ameliorate the conditions
of country life. The extension of tele-
phone lines into the country, and the
rural free mail delivery are steps IN
that direction; but the general i'm
provement of the country roads would
be a far more important step. Bad
roads do more than anything else to
promote ignorance, isolation, discour-
agement and disgust among the coun-
try people. Good roads promote at
tendance at school and the church;
they make social gatherings, literary
societies, dramatic entertainments, and
club and lodge meetings possible dur
ing the winter and spring. With bad
roads the farmer is compelled to hi
bernate, socially. for three or four
months in the year. With good roads,
these months become the most pleas
ant, and, in some respects, the most
profitable in the year.
The Improvement Of the country
roads is now recognized as one of the
greatest questions before the Ameri-
can public, and it is coming to be rec
ognized as question which concerns
not merely the rural population. but
the whole people.--AutoIuobile Topics.

some sheik or governor.
''The true Mocha is the finest coffee
grown; it has q delicious flavor that
makes 1t as superior to the very best
of other brands, as silk is superior to
cotton, but the crop is extremely linz
tied. and hardly any more than sat

Arabian coffee may find its way TO this
country; it may even be called Mocha,
but it is not the real article, am sure,

though we do get the best Of other
brands that are grown in CeylOn and
Java, and that means some mighty
fine coffee. 1t is not Mocha, however,
for the whole of the true Mocha crop

of the governing class, and the third.

not much superior to the best Java
coffee. are sold TO the people, and the
demand invariably exceeds the supply
tenfold.

cheapest grade of Mocha finds its way

seldom, and l don't believe an ounce
Of it has ever got any further west
than that. l presume that if, by some
hook or crook, a pound of the real,
plump berried Mocha were landed in
this country it would sell for a price
that even a Rockefeller might hesitate
to pay. We get the best coffee grown,
apart from the Mocha. but the local
conditions which prevail where that
coffee is raised prevent us from OBJ
tanning any. and 1 hardly think the

In the Delineator Allan Sutherland
writes of a remarkable sociological ex-
pertinent = no longer an experiment,
for its practical value has been dem
onstrated-that has been tried in sew
eral large cities, of changing unbeau-
tiful vacant lots into garden spots.
Vacant tracts of land are borrowed
from generous owners of zeal estate,
divided into small tr&cts and loaned
to needy people, chiefly old men, in
valids and children. They are fur.
nished with seed, tools, ETC.. and their
work is directed by competan super
yisors. Among the many benefcent
results of the efforts of the Vacant
Lots Association, the following are
mentioned in the article: Hundeds
have found employment who would
otherwise have been idle; land has
been rescued from weeds and rubbish
and made to bring forth fruits and
flowers; little children who at best
only h,pe for a country week" have
found a glorious country SUMMER"
they have had in large measure at
least suggestions of country life, with
its blessings of pure air, wholesome
food and health-giving exercise, and
many have already set their faces
resolutely to look for pleasant homes
in the country: indeed. the demand
from suburban property o~ners is rap
IDLY increasing for these youthful
trained workers of the soil.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

In order to be popular, forget to say
good deal.
Truth witnesses in vain where malice
is the judge.
No temper at all may be worse than
some bad temper.
He who is a respecter of persons can
not respect himself.
Wisdom is always conceded to be a
rich man until he loses his riches.
Do not emphasize your own virtues
by enlarging on the failings of others.
A safe way to judge a man is to as
certain just what friends he doesn't
make. Fl
A genius is the man who refuses to
believe in the impossibilities of other
people.
Man signs for rest, yet pushes into
the game each new day with the old
eagerness.
The claims to wisdom of owls and a
multitude of men rest upon their looks,
and nothing more.
To get rid of bore, ask him to re-
peat his longest and favorite story
twice. Even he cannot stand that.
Only smart man can conceal from
woman the fact that he isn't as
smart as he would wish her to think
he is.
We thank those who kill Time for
us, and rejoice in his passing; and
then we weep for him and wish him
back.
One of the curious things about a
man who wants to borrow money from
you to-day is his eager determination
to repay it tomorrow.
There are three stages in the exist
ence of the average man when he is
of particular interest to his commun-
ity-viz.. at his birth. marriage and
funeral.-Success.

Exports of manufactured goods
make a gratifying showing for the
past seven months, but the practice of
including copper ingots and refined
mineral oil with the manufactures
makes the comparison more favorable
than it would be if the word were used
in its commoner and more restricted
sense. The export; of manufac-
tured goods in seven months of the
fiscal year were $2O,OOO,OOO greater
than they were in the corresponding
portion of the previous year. But the
increase in copper ingots was $4,000.
900 and the increase in refined min
eral oil was nearly $1,000 600. In other
manufactured goods than these the
net increase was about 100000. The
exports of iron and steel in the seven
months were more than S3,OOO,OOC
greater than a year ago, and the aggre.
gate exports of this class show an in
crease for the seven months over any
previous year.

Incentive 10 Activity.

DR.. ]. L. Srodes, of the county home
at Woodville, tells a good story on
himself that is worth repeating and
shows how it is best always to re-
member where things are laid away.
He was out on a case one night, and
having his tools in case he had no
room for bottle of chemically pure
carbolic acid which he was taking
along. So he put it in his hip pocket
and promptly forgot it. The operation
over, he returned home, and having
been away almost all night, he was
rather fatigued when he reached his
rooms. Rather than wait until he
could undress and go to bed, he threw
himself down on lounge. In a sec
ond or two he felt that the couch
was unusually warm. AS he dozed for
another second the reason for the heat
dawned on him. He remembered the
bottle of chemically pure in his pocket

was able to take his meals except from

A FLAW IN The TITLE.

I lived year in wondrous isle
Where, ankle-deep, mid blossome rardY
1ne sweet-eyed maidens, singing, stand,
Cornbing their blue-blacl hair.

Oh song and of scent and glancing wing
All thing that heavenliest be!
Sand what didst thou bring away with
. "A gem, flower, or shining plume
To mind thee of all that was left behind,
And to brighten the Northern gloom"
Nothing. left them all untouched.
Unplucked, in the realm of sun and song;
For | said as we stood away from the
shore,
II shall come again, ere long"
but never have sought its shores again
Strong are the bonds that hold me
back;
And never again shall my sad eyes see
That loveliest land-alack!
for one of its trampled flowers,
o, for the toughest shell from its shorel
For the meanest thing from that sun
kissed isle,
Where l lived and loved Of yore.
L was SO sure that it all was mine,
SO proudly sure, that left the isle
With glad and fearless face.
Heart, when the title to all was ours,
What was gem, or flower, to u.s.
And so we wander, alone, afar-
Naked, and hungry-thus!
Nothing we saved or thought to fetch
From that country whose title was
hearts delight;
How can we prove we were ever there?
We two are so poor, tonight
We've not leaf, nor a shell, nor a stone
To keep as token-to clasp, or kiss;
Who would believe we were once so rich
We, who have fallen so low as this!
But king is king, though the crown is
lost;
And we know by this pain that is bitter
sweet,
We are ousted heirs of that lovely land
Forbidden now to our feet.

Not only do we grow better pecans in
South Carolina than any of the Texas
variety that have ever been sold in this
market, says the Charleston News and
Courier, but we have in South Caro-
lima the largest pecan grove in the
world. 1t belongs to Captain John S.
Horlbeck, of Charleston, and is stu
ated in Christ Church parish, Just
across the Ashley River from this
city. We wish that it were possible
for South Carolina TO enter the eompe-
tition with Texas in pecan nuts, and
with Texas and Louisiana and all the
rest OF the world in rice, and with
New England in the manufacture OF
cotton goods. and with the world in the
production of fine cotton. A small APP
preparation by the Legislature and an
active agent in the field would enable
South Carolina TO take all the gold
medals offered for competition in the
field crops and orchard products and
manufactured goods. 1t is a pity that
the richest State in the South, in pro.
portion to its area and population,
should be the slowest State in the
South to make its advantages known
to the investing and home-seeking
world.

The Spaniards, still sensitive over
the loss of the Philippines, resent the
appointment of the former Archbishop
of Manila to the bishopric of Valencia,
announces the Youths COMPANION.
They charge him with ''unpatriotic
trucking to the Americans after the
disaster at Cavite," and even go so far
as to call him a traitor. There were
riots at Valencia when news of the APP
pointment reached there. The Prime
Minister regards the agitation against
the Archbishop as the work of the Do
htical enemies of the Cabinet, and he
said, late in January, that the Arch
bishop would go to Valencia "even if
he had to enter the place between
hedges of bayonets." Public meetings
have been held in many parts of the
country, and the sobereSt of the speak.
ers have declared that the Archbishop
"personities all those forces and infiu-
ences which the nation is convinced
were the cause of the loss of the Phil.
ippines." The protest is popular rather
than partisan, and is evidence of the
existence of a lively national self-re-
spect.

height of six or seven feet, and it's

weaving-room that queer
k Nj note sounded as Marie La
EzN ZSl Yigne entered; and a run
ming wave of laughter followed. What
did it all mean? She had said that her
name was. Marie.
She went to the fixers bench and
touched his arm.
"What is it, Frenchy ~ he asked, not
unkindly.
She gesticulated about the room, and
Initiating, the word, repudiated it with
another gesture. Then she pronounced
her own name very plainly. Marie.
HE Mar-r-rie, no Peep"
AS the machinery began to move and
the French girl went to her looms, the
high-pitched epithet was still flung at
her. Some one varied it with deep
contralto "P-r-r-ee-p." 1t was better
Imitation than the others, and Marie
understood the insult. 1t was the noise
the frogs made in the spring; because
she was French, the other girls were
calling her a frog.
She ran out from between her looms
and threw spools at her nearest tor
mentors.
After that Marie was always called
Peep. She resented it, and stormed
at the girls in French invective, but
they only delighted in rousing her tenn
per.
Thus it happened that although they
worked with her for several months
and took such liberties with her name,
none of them came really to know her.
She was an alien in the mill; and when
they had begun by making sport of
her, the girls own hot spirit forbade
making any overtures of friendliness.
No one knew where Peep lived. Per-
haps if some of the girls had followed
her at night, and seen the two rooms
in the poor tenement that she and her
mother occupied, they would not have
resented quite SO much her tireless IL

being listless and pale, had at last

ie half-hysterical with tears and
laughter, was explaining /. all to the
