badly mistaken the levy lists for many years

of any road IN the county.

some people who reside on the Pike are

MODERN METHODS OF SPELLING
Exchange Tells of Hardships They
Caused One Unfortunate.

OduSeu One unfortunate.
Imagine the case of a person who
at different periods of his life was
obliged to learn to spell all over
again." said the professor. Il knew of
such man, not originally poor
speller, who was compelled thrice to
take up the study of photography. 1t
happened in this way:
This friend of mine was reared in
the country, attended the school,
and acquired therein the necessary
proficiency under the rules of the old
time teacher AS matter of fact he
learned to spell while standing 1t
was a curious fact that for many
years that man could not spell some
of the simplest words unless he stood
up. On his feet, he was the best
speller in the class, and acquired
many prize in the spelling bees
There was not a pupil IN unose Gays
who could turn him down., when it
came to an exercise in upright ortho-
graphy.
Then, years afterward, he had to
learn to spell with a pencil. All his
spelling talent went into his pencil
His tongue had lost its cunning, and
whether standing or sitting he would
miss the easiest words, unless he used
his pencil.
Finally, with the advent of the
typewriter, he was obliged again to
learn how to spell, this time with the
machine. Queer thing, isn't it? I'm
less the word is simple one, my
friends tongue refuses its aid, his
pencil declines to afford its old-time
help, and he is compelled to refer to
the writing machine. And yet he's a
good speller.-The Sunday Magazine
Greene County herald. (Leakesville, Miss.) 1898-current, 1905-06-30
When Not to Talk.

The best Of us talk too much. ''The
essence of power is reserve" said a
man who knew. Many reputation
has been built on silence. Many one
is spoiled through rushing prematurely
and volubly into speech. 1t is safe to
be silent when your words would
wound. Faithful are the wounds of
friend" says the old proverb, but one
wants to be mighty sure ones friend
needs the wounding and that we are
qualified to administer it. Keep still
when your words will discourage. 1t is
Infinitely better to be dumb forever
than to make one fellow being less
able to cop with life. Keep still when
your words will incite to anger or dis
comfort. An incredible amount Of
breath is used in the evil practice of
trying to make our friends dislike their
friends Never speak when what you
have to say is merely for the purpose
of exalting yourself. Shut your lips
with key when you are inspired to
babbIe incontinentallyo yourself your
ailments, accomplishments, relations,
loves, hatreds, hopes and desires. 1t
| is only to the choice, rare friend that
one may speak of these things without
becoming fool.-Philadelphia Bull
letin.

Filet Antique.

A revival, as much as novelty, is
the filet antique, which is coming into
favor.
1t is chiefly used for curtains, though
over a color it is pretty for bureau
sets and bedspreads.
The net chosen is the filet, and it is
darned back and forth. until the design
is filled in A blunt needle is selected
lest it pierce the threads of the net, and
it is threaded with mercerized cotton.
Hens are made by. turning up the
edge and running them through a
couple of rows of the cotton.
Conventionalized flowers and vines
are the figures that will be most seen,
but the somewhat more difficult her
aldic designs, showing quantity drawn
lions, dragons, horses and the like, will
be by far the handsomer. They will
look like the very antique laces.
For bedrooms and other rooms in
which one likes a lace shade, these
shades of darned filet net are lovely.
For these the design should be rather
heavy. If it is to hang in folds like the
ordinary sash curtain. either full or
half length, the pattern may be very
light. Indeed a mere border is enough,
If one does not care to do figures in the
body of the curtain.-Philadelph Rec

The English servant requires to be
studied The worlds other servants
are mere amateurs, the English servant
has a trade. As an American pro-
ceeded to treat mine L Americana,
and ] made my first blunder. A sensi-
BILE American is, if not friends with her
servants, at least friendly. The English
woman, if she is sensible, presents to
her servants surface Of perfect in
difference, and then she has peace, for
the English servant despises consid-
crate and kindly mistress as not know
ing her place. The most difficult thing
for a stranger to learn is that impal-
pable line between the different serv-
ants duties. If one does not enumer-
ate what one expects Of them when
they are hired. afterward it is too late.
They have, however, rough sense Of
honor, and they generally do what they
agree to.-Harper's Bazaar.

queer Tree Climbing Ceremony OF Z
Dwarfed People.
The day was warm for March. The
sailor sat in the ice cream saloon eat
ing ice cream and lady cake.

He laughed, as men always laugh
over this joke, and the pretty waitress
permitted herself to smile.
1.-THE islanders in them islands," he
said, sis dwarfs. Four feet, on the
average. Very fierce and ugly.
''If a young islander wants girl
for his wife, he asks her parents fol
her. They never refuse. They take
the girl and hide her in the forest
There the lad must find her before
morning. If he finds her, she is his
If he don't, she amt.
"Of course, I don't need to tell you
that if the girl wants the young Teller
she sees to 1t that he finds her all right
"And vice versa.
"Here is how the marriage ceremony
is performed. The lad climbs up slim
young tree and the girl climbs up an.
other close to him. Her clothes don't
bother her in climbin'-clothes never
bother an Andaman islander. Well, up
they go, and as they near the top their
weights bend the slim trees over
toward each other prettily. The trees
bow and bend and courtesy, and finally

Sheep Died a Drunkard.

used to be decoy sheep at a wharf
in Sydney who was in the habit o.
getting drunk BILLY" would lead the
sheep aboard, and knew quite wei
what was required of him-kneV
enough to turn nasty now and ther
and refuse to go aboard. until severa
pints Of. beer were given him, AL
the publicans round the wharf knew
him; he was generally in with the
first rush in the morning, and woult
put his front feet up on the stoo
and stay there until he got a. drink
The men would frequently shout fol
him, for the pleasure of seeing hin
drunk. When he was full up he't
stagger out like a drunken man. Blu
alas, he went on the spree once too
often, and his body was found one

Great Bank squeezes Pennies.

The Worlds Work, in recent is
sue, shows how carefully the First
National bank of Chicago looks to its
postage account Stamped postal
cards are not used, and not one of
the thousands of routine letters that
are written every day is stamped and
sealed until the whole routine mail
of the day is assembled in the after
noon Then all the cards and letters
to one correspondent are put in a sim
gle envelope, and-except for letters
from the officers and the Ike-the
bank comes as near as possible to get
ting its entire mail carried at cents
an ounce, or 1 cent for every postal
card, instead of often paying 2 cents
for quarter of an ounce, as it would
have to do if every communication
were sealed and stamped separately
This little matter of getting full value
out of cent stamp makes saving
of $25 to $50 day."
