Norfolk Virginian-Pilot. The
Board of Visitors Of the Virginia
Military Institute have rejected
the compromise suggested ard En-
ranged by Governor Montague
and the refractory cadets have
been given one week more in which
to comply with the regulstio OF
the institute or be dismissed. This
action on the part of the board we
can not but deem unfortunate.
While we believe that discipline
should be maintained and mutiny
or characterization should not be
tolerated, we donot see any reason
for the use of harsh measure
when the same result can be ac-
complished by the use of nildes
ones. 1t IS admitted that the
cadets had some ground for their
action in the premises and certain
ly In the final disposition OF the
matter some account should have
been taken Of that fact.

Fixing Railroad Rates.

Making railroad rates is like playing
a game of checkers or chess. Com
munities to be benefited, producers.
manufacturers or shippers to be aided
represent the pieces used. Every posi-
BILE move is studied for its effect on the
general result by skilled traffic mana
gers. 4 false move in the making of
freight rates may mean the ruin of a
city, of great manufacturing interest,
of an agricultural community. Rail-
roads strive, to build up all these SO
that each may have an equal chance in
the sharp competition Of business. So
sensitive to this rivalry are the rail-
roads that in order to build up business
along their lines they frequently allow
the shipper to practically dictate rates.
Rate making has been matter of de-
velopment; of mutual concessions for
mutual benefit. That is. why the rail-
roads of the United Statds have volun-
tarily made freight rates 30 much lower
in this country than they are on the
government-owned and operated rail-
ways of Europe and Australia that
they are now the lowest transportation
rates in the world.

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics
Depth to Plant a Tree.

AS to the depth to plant a tree, Ii
seems to be the general idea that the
future prosperity of the tree is pro.
portionate to the depth and firmness
with which 1T is placed in the ground,
and the percentage that plant too
shallow is almost too Insignificant to
be worth considering, for the shining
is all in the opposite direction.
Look for the mark made by the
earth on the trunk of the tree when
it stood in the nursery, and going by
that, you will make no mistake. The
roots want warmth, light and moist
ure, such as they receive when placed
properly, but when Theoretically
sealed two to three feet in the
ground, it is impossible to develop
any vigorous root action while con.
tending against the terribly handicap
ing conditions. Give your tree plen-
ty of feeding ground, plenty of good,
fibrous earth, and If the place Of
planting is not naturally suitable, dig
it out deep and put in what is need

President johnson Poor Writer.

The letters of President Taylor are
rare, but perhaps those of Andrew
Johnson are the rarest, as he did but
little of his own writing. His son con-
Quoted most of his correspondence and
signed his fathers name to the letters.
It is related that one reason why Pres
ident Johnson wrote so little was ow-
ing to an accident which happened to
him when he was working at his trade
as tailor. One day tailor's heavy
iron goose fell on his arm, SO injuring
that member that he found it extreme
ly difficult to indulge in penmanship
thereafter. Andrew Johnson was the
poorest writer among the presidents
as well as the rarest. His handwrit-
ing was very much of scrawl and
can scarcely be deciphered by the av-
erage reader.

Many women long for child to bless
their homes, but because of some de-
bility or displacement 'of the female
organs they are barren.
Preparation for healthy maternity is
accomplished by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound more successfully
than by any other medicine, because il
gives tone and strength to the entire
female organism, curing all disp1ace-
ments, liberation and inflammation.
A woman who is in good physical
condition transmits to her children the
blessings of a good constitution. Is
not that an incentive to prepare for a
healthy maternity
If expectant mothers would fortify
themselves with Lydia E. Pinkham' S
Vegetable Compound, which for thirty
years has sustained thousands of
women in this condition, there would
be great decrease in miscarriages, in
suffering, and in disappointments at
birth.
The following letters to Mrs. Pink
ham demonstrate the power of Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in
such cases. :.
Mrs. L. G. Glover, Vice President of
Milwaukee Business Woman's Associa-
ton, of GA Grove Street, Milwaukee,
Wis, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

Young RockefefIer's Training.

At Brown university, where John D,
Rockefeller, Jr., was graduated in the
class of 1897, tales are still told to
show how his father impressed on him
the same scrupulous regard to detail
that made the Standard Oil Company
successful. One day when John Jr.,
was down IN the city of Providence
with a couple of girls. he took them
INTO convenient drug store and treat
ed them to ice cream soda. After he
had paid the checks and before he left
