DANISH LADIES FAIR.

covered with flags and bunting. At
one end of the room was a mound of
sawdust bordered with white silver
busted cotton. This was the "Klon-

fair dug for golden treasures at five
cents a dig. Refreshments of ice
cream, cake and conee were served

Yet, measure of self-control is pos
slble and the acquisition of this should
be one of the great aims Of education-
No man is we'll trained who has not
acquired good measure Of command
over himself. There is an evident
lack of such control where the INTEL
lect is the unfailing servant of the
passions. Either this or it must be
that ethical training, the need Of
which is coming to be more widely
recognized, has been sadly neglected.
If it should appear that wit is the SER
want Of the passions, as a rule; then
education is curse rather than a
blessing. In such a case, ignorance
becomes bliss and where ignorance
is bliss, it is folly to be wise. 1t may
not be denied that the schools do not
free us from crime, but if they do
their proper work they should greatly
lessen it. Professor James strangely
contends that the schools and col-
leges aggravate evils instead Of cur
ing them. II this is true, we have fall
len into the habit of over-va1uing the
benefits of an education, but we can
not think that it is entirely true, es-
pecially where education is Of the
right sort.

Education And Crime.

Danville Register.
In the course Of some observations
on the EFFECT of Education Upon
Crime" Professor William James, OF
Harvard. is credited with this state
ment:
"The intellect is the servant OF the
passions, and education often makes
some intel1ects only the more adroit
in carrying out their evil tendencies" ."
. This is substantially the same as
saving that a man is still man after
everything possible has been done to
spiritualize him and take the animal
out of him. The most perfect saint
that ever lived was still a man as long
as he continued in the flesh. 1t was
the experience of St. Paul who dis
cover ed two laws in his members,
one impelling him toward what was
good and the other toward what was
evil and even repulsive TO his better
nature. He found that sin was in
him, and that what seemed good to
him he failed to do, while he did
the things that were hateful to him.
Thus it comes that the difference be-
tween the best and the worst is not
so great as we sometimes imagine.
Could the intellect somehow be freed
from the domination Of the passions;
were it possible for the will to
command the sensibilities; to say to
our feelings, Our attachments and
resentments-"peace, be stilp-and
be assured of obedience; it would all
be different. In such a case, not only
at some time, but at all times, we
might be masters of ourselves, archl-
tects of our own fortunes and our
o,sn rescues from the perils which be-
set the way Of every one OF US.
However, it is not so. Our wills
are dominated by Our affections and
we constantly do things contrary to
our best judgment and become vic
TINS of remorse, failing to meet the
requirements of Our own conscience.
Like the great apostle, what we would
not, that we do, and what we would,
we fail to do. In the last analysis,
it is apparent that sentiment rules the
world.

THEY DRINK BUTTERMILK.
Because 1t Contains Germ of Longev-
ity They Think.

Atlanta News.
Butterrnilk contains the germ of
longevity, and if you want to live a
long time you must drink buttermilk
According to T. Cuyler Smith, a
prominent Albanian who spent much
of his time in New York, buttermilk
is the very latest fad in the metropo-
lis and one is not in the swim there
at all unless one drinks buttermilk.
New York people claim,' said Mr..
Smith, "that buttermilk has been
found to contain the germ Of longev-
ity and consequently ali New York
ers are falling over each other to get
to the buttermilk wagon and take on
a goodly supply.
Most people who have acquired
the habit are now great enthusiasts.
They drink buttermilk at least three
times a day. Some people take a
drink CT buttermilk the first thing in
the morning and just before going to
bed at night, while some even have
bottle on a stand alongside the bed
so that if they get thirsty in the mid
die of the night they will have the
benefit of not only a refreshing drink
close ath and, but also the means Of
prolonging life.
"A great many people really accept
the long life theory about buttermllk.
Several prominent physicians are on
record to the effect that buttermilk
is one of the most helpful foods al
the disposal of the human family.
"It is fast growing to be popular
theory in New York that good old
fashioned buttermilk will not only i'm
prove ones health, but that it will
prevent all sorts of diseases and also
that it is positive cure for a great
many ailments"
Mr.. Smith when asked what had
been his personal experience in the
matter, said that he, had fallen a
ready victim to the habit. He says
that he partakes of buttermilk at
least three times day and that his
health is splendid. 1t is not at all
unpleasant duty to drink buttermilk,
according to Mr.. Smith, but it is
really a delightful beverage, especial
1y on hot day.
Mr.. Smith is we'll known in Atlanta.
He is prominent cotton operator
and his headquarters are in New
York, but he always registers at the
hotels as a resident of Atlanta. He
arrived at the Piedmont day before
yesterday.
