come absolute slaves to the cotton gam

our children servants to the money

late the price Of our cotton, the finest
money and commercial crop grown in
the world, to the enrichment Of all but
the South-now as n prudent people
we must hide ourselves. let the fools
90 on and be destroyed.
Why should We ask, How are We to
hide ourselves in this land where
everything can be produced that fur
nishes food and raiment for man and
beast?"
Not a single atom that adds to our
life, pleasure, comfort or happiness but
can be produced in this Southland.
Last July when that grand man and
lamented friend and brother Of South

man who has done more in one year for
Southern farmers than the State Agri-

A Point In Practice.

II has been shown by repeated e1.
periments that a pound Of cotton-seed
meal Is equivalent to 1.13 pounds OF
corn. and that a pound of cotton-seed
meal is worth LIS pounds Of corn for
fattening purposes. Taking this In
connection with the recent tests, we
will realize the immense value OF the
cotton-seed products for feeding and
manurial purposes. 1t teaches the stu
dent this important lesson: He cannot
afford to sell cotton seed and buy corn
as a substitute, even though the latter
is cheaper in price per ton. A loss

Easter tide to many people is the
annual recurrence of festival to
which they attach little Importance
Yet among all races the custom is the
same, though different religious he.
liefs make different reasons for its
celebration
The egg in early times was consid-
cred symbolical of the origin of all
life; the earth itself was believed to
have grown from this source, and la
ter the Jews believed that the egg
symbolized the regeneration of their
race from the life hidden in the ark.
The early Saxons and our own fore
fathers entertained the belief that the
virtue of life passed from the egg into
humanity. and the earth; and from
this belief survive many CT the Gus
toms that prevail down to our own
time.

PIRATES OF THE DANCES.


Some four years ago section OF
river police. consisting entirely OF
fishermen. was formed at Benare,.
says the Lahore Tribune. to maintain
law and order on the river.
In course OF time the men gained a
good deal of information regarding
crimes of piracy carried out by the
crews of boats trading between Mirz-
apur and Allahabad. and 1t was found
that these men visited the great wa
terways of Bengal solely for the pur-
pose of piracy.
The result of much correspondence
and Investigation ON the part of the
two governments was, that. after some
captures had been effected by the pac-
ca police. the Benares river police
were deputed to hunt down the pi-
rates who carried on their nefarious
business on the Brahmaputra.
They succeeded in capturing four
large pirate boats. and took from them
number Of flags. and the other day
these flags were duly presented to the
lieutenant governor of the. United
provinces.

Companion.

Ihere is a pretty custom prevailing
at Easter in Massachusetts. In Glou-
cester and Salem there are many fish.
ermen. To follow the sea. as we all
Know, is dangerous calling, and the
grave of many brave man is under
the waves of the stormy Atlantic. But
on Easter we celebrate the resurrec-
ton of the dead, and in those fishing
towns the children of the fishermen
keep the festival in their own way.
Filling their arms with flowers they
march together to the piers, singing
Easter carols. Here the flowers are
cast into the sea, to float away on the
blue waters and perhaps sink at last
to where some good man and true"
is sleeping the last sleep beneath the
waves. Shakespeare tells us how a
woman whose father was drowned
heard spirit singing to her:
Full fathom five thy father lies:
Or his bones are coral made;
THOSE are pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea change
Into something rich and strange
Sea nymphs hourly ring his bell
Harkl now hear them-ding- dong bell,'
Don't you hope that the fishermen's
children think of something as pretty
as that when they RENE mber the sea.

beneath the great waves? That moth.
ing of us doth fade, but passes into

lesson OF this beautiful Easter time.

The Sabbath morning dawned. All
was silent within that sepnlcher be-
fore which stood the Roman sentinels-
A great stone was rolled against its
door. How the hearts of the faithful
disciples were rent with hopeless woe.
But the dawn brightens. and just the
faintest breeze stirs amid the olive
trees of the garden. The shadows yet
lay dark beside the sepulcner. The
light breeze dies in profoundest ST.
lence. And then sudden glory round
the tomb, the movement of angel
wings. and noiselessly the great stone
is rolled away, the door of the sepul
cher swings open wide and before
those affrighted sentinels stands the
risen Christ.
oh. the glory of that first Easter
morning when the hopes of the world
blossom anew as the sun rises upon
world redeemed. Well may the Chris
tian world rejoice in the coming OF
the day and repeat its story from age
to age No mere for man the black
ness of doubt and despair. for the
risen Christ brings life and immortal
ity to light. 1t is fitting that we bring
our fragrant offerings of flowers, to
make bright the affairs of our
churches on this the birthday of mans
divinest hopes. for without it the
world would still be wrapped in gloom
and darkness. civilization would be a
thing impossible. the brotherhood of
the race would be unrecognized. free
government would give place to tyr
amy and the chains of superstition
would bind men down to desolation
and despair. Shall we then not only
observe the day with gladness. but
also hail the risen Christ as our Sa-
vior and our Redeemer?
