.lIM,s SWEETHEART.

.,or MT on her Sunday best,
Ior lilac wedding gown,
~ white straw bonnet neatly tiet
With strings of faded brown;
ue woke before the ROSTERS croWed
" nd started In the dew
p n 900 the boat race, for our Jim
Was captain of the crew.
ia took It in his curly head
no want a college course;
narted with the pasture lot
And sold the sorrel horse.
W. sent him every dollar saved,
And made seedy pair .......-...
2, garments that had long outlived
Their days of useful wear.
The surging throng closed up in front,
We could not see our son,
put soon a mighty cheer went up
And told us Jim had won.
The crowd took up the college yen
And sent it to the skies,
And college colors everywhere
shook out their brilliant dyes.
he stepped ashore, looked up and saw
His mothers wrinkled face,
And hurried to her through the ranks
OF broadcloth silk, and lace.
He never gave a single glance
Toward the pretty girls,
But kissed her on the withered lips
And kissed her silver curls.
His sunburnt face was glorified
With proud and happy smiles;
He did not mind because her hat
Was years behind the styles,
But led her out before his friends,
: A figure quaint and prim
In stiff old-fashioned lilac silk
MY sweetheart, boys" said Jim

Do Not whip Your Dog.

The best authorities agree that dogs
should not be whipped or struck a
blow more severe than a slap with the
hand. A dog is intelligent and as sen
sitive to the tones Of the voice as a
child. The voice, alone, Is ali that is
needed to reprove him. If it is neces-
sary to punish your dog, do 1t at the
time of the transgression, and not as
one boy did, two days after the wrong
doing.
The boy was the owner Of splendid

Lord Kitchener says that most Of the

year will certainly command a good price, and it will bring to this state just about fifty million dollars. A million bales at fifty dollars a bale is the crop. Much of it will probably bring more than fifty dollars a bale. Out of fifty million dollars in cold cash some cotton mills should be built.
 The south will ever grow cotton, and it's ambition should be to market It in finished commercial forms. Last year the south grew fourteen million bales of raw cotton, but it turned but two million bales into manufactured goods. The south should not rest un- til it spins one-half of the raw cotton 1t grows. To do that we will need fully twice as many mills as we now have. Instead of a million spindles in Alabama there must be two mil lion. Instead of sixty-seyen mills, we will need over one hundred, and the counties that have no mills should build two additional mills, alike for their own good and for the good of the state.

Japan and America.

Dncle Sam owns and catches seals on the Alentian archipelago, which stretches away from Alaska on or aoout the fifty-ffth parallel. Just be- vond these islands lie the Kommander islands. The distance from the far tnerest Aleutian islands Is probably not much over one hundred miles, and America owns the one and Japan the other Japan thus becomes our next door neighbor in the cold waters of Boring sea. But that is no reason why there should be any coldness be- tween the two countries that have ad- jacent possessions.
 The Kommander islands did not be- long to any country until Japan seized them and hoisted the Japanese flag on them. This was done perhaps a month ago. and they are now Japanese pos sessions.
 The islands held by Japan in the Boring sea are barren, but no more so ] than the Aleutian islands, and both are valuable on account of the seal fisheries. The seals at the Komman- der islands are particularly numerous, and it is wholly possible that Japan and America will yet have trouble over the catching of seals, which Is great industry in all the islands be- tween Alaska and Kamchatka. But there are seals enough to go round, and no doubt all honest grounds of complaint can be met and satisfied by the two friendly and intelligent countries.

SoIyinu the Gotten Problem.

Some of the eastern spinners pro- pose. it seems, to get cotton at bot tom prices by buying land in the south and growing upon that land whatever cotton their respective mills may call for. This plan reads so easily and seems so feasible 1t Is a pity it Is nei- ther. The Boston Herald rises up to remark that If northern methods of agriculture were applied on southern plantations the probabilities are that better and larger crops would be ob- tained from a given area" and 1t men tions "a gentleman" who did apply northern methods in Alabama and got bale an acre, or about twice as much as his neighbors obtained
 This sort of planning reads finely. and we are not 2 bit inclined to dis courage the Herald or the spinners 1t speaks for. But when any one at- tempts to render the average cotton farm as fertile as an Ohio farm or a New York farm, or even New Eng land farm, and to keep 1t at that point throughout a rainy winter, he will simply be content to buy the cotton he needs in subsequent year in the open market. Lands in the south are severely washed and battered in the winter season, because they are not protected by Jack Frost.
 The entire scheme is chimerical and will never be tried. The spinner would dislike the negro and the negro would reciprocate the sentiment and move away, and pretty soon the farm would be for sale, and the cotton problem would remain unsolved. Prices would continue to fuctuate and the spinner from Fall River or New Bedford would continue to buy as he ever has and ever will.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1905-09-30
Sales Were Larue.

"The sale of school books this fall has been between 12 and 15 per cent larger than last year." said Henry Baruoh, who has charge of the book department of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb, the state de- pository for the northern part of Ala bama
 'The sales for the local schools would have been even larger had the new school buildings been completed Tn time for the, opening this week. As it Is the sale has been cut down considerably ow- ing to the fact that many children will not attend the opening session until af- ter Christmas on account of the crowded condition of the schools.
 ''The increase of l2 per cent is about in proportion to the increase in the num- Der of children of school age in the city as shown by the census taken this sum mer by two of the teachers in the pub lie schools.
 T believe that later in the term the increase will be even larger than 1t has been to date.
 ''fhe percentage of increase in the num- Der of books bought for the schools out of Birmingham and in the northern por- ton of the state was about the same as the percentage of increase in the Blr- mingham schools"

About Crossinus.

'I will appreciate it as a personal favor and as a favor to the Southern railway if the citizens who live along the East Lake car line will report to me every time they catch train crew of the Southern run ming a cross,' |" said J. J. Cotter, super intendent of the Birmingham division of the Southern.
 If the public or the police department will only report to me the number of the engine pulling the train that runs over the crossing I will do the rest. I have issued absolute instructions to all em- ployes of the Southern that no crossings must be made until the train has come to a full stop.
 We value human life and do not want to incur the risk of killing any one. We are just as careful as we can possibly be about this Twenty-seventh street cross ing. We have three hagmen within 100 yards at Twenty seventh street and they are all reliable men
 "One of the hagmen is on First ave- nue to flag the street car crossing. an- other acts as gateman where the Louis ville and Nashville and the Southern cross and the other Is at the ng of the tracks of the Sloss company which run into the city furnaces.
 While the law does not require that we stop at a crossing where fiagman is kept day and night, still as an extra precauton we require all trains, passenger and freight to stop before making the crossing. After they stop the engineer must receive signal from the hagman that the crossing Is clear before he can make the crossing.
