What's Worth While

Having but one life to live, that
which is useless, needless and
time-waisting should be cut cut
as detrimental to the we'll rounded
life. We all want to make TIE
best of life, and might profitably
ask our selves what may be left
out and what we may lay hold
upon. AS a rule we may let go
all things that are transient and
but take up our time. Life is
too short for shams of any de-
scription, what we really are we
should be without fear. If we
could divest ourselves of every
form of falsehood, or make be
lief, we would be rid of much
foolish fear and unrest. Then
too, a sham always results in
trouble and notification, no mat
ter how promising it may appear
at the beginning.
We could leave off worry, and
be stronger in body mind and
soul. Worry distorts the moral
and mental vision and does no
good to mortal man or womrn.
We could dispense with discon-
tent and be all the bette Any
simpleton can preach and prac-
tice discomfort, but it takes gen.
uine heroism to bear life's trials
and sorrows patiently and with
out complaint.
Self-seeking, is another him
drance in making our span of
life the best possibl. The world
was made as much for one man
as for another, and grasping ava
rice brings only disappointment.
The best things of life are with
held from those who exist only
for self, while the richest bless
ings comes to those who exist
only for self, while the richest
blessings come to those who for
get self and help the world when
ever they can.
Having let go the useless, we
must seek what we should lay
hold upon, First should be a wise
use of time. Everything else
of value may be replaced, but
time lost can never be restored
We might each take into consid-
GRAFTON the problem of how'much
time is ours to devote to harmful
pleasures and idleness and how
much to honest work.
We may with pleasure and
profit seek friendship. 1t is a
privilege we have of making
friends for both life and eternity.
Sometime in eternity we may
form new friendships, but the
ties that will bind us to those
perfect beings cannot be so strong
as those that united hearts and
souls while we were struggling,
suffering mortals. Cherish
friendship as priceless jewel
for it like other things of true
value is immortal.
Work that occupies body mind
aud soul is another thing to lay
hold upon. To find the work for
which we are suited, and to do it
we'll should be our ambition. Each
day is a gift from our Maker with
new opportunities. What will we
do with them? If we fail to do
the work intended for us alone,
it must forever be gone.
Let us then let go all things
unworthy and take strong hold
upon that which is worth while,
and our lives will be blessings to
those with whom we come in
contact. Oxford Eagle.

The Gulf Compress Co. are
negotiating for the purchase of

burg. The Gulf Co. have been
buying out congresses through
out the cotton belt for several
years and the indications are
that the company will before
many years have entire control
of the cotton compressing bus
mess. With this powerful lever
age the Gulf Co. can make or un-
make towns at it's pleasure and
we fear that it will not be long
before the business intrests in
these places where the Compress
ses have been taken in by the
combination may find it necessary
to erect congresses as a matter
of necessity.

Egypt has been regarded by some
people as the land of pyramids and
mummies only, but 1t has from time
infmemorial had n reputation for
onions. Ancient Egyptians swore by
the onion and regarded the plant as
sacred. The inscription on the pyra.
mid OF Cheops tells Us that the work.
men had onions given TO them, and
from the Bible we learn that the He
brews. when slaves under Pharaoh,
enjoyed these bulbs, and that wh en far
away they remembered "the leeks and
the onions and the garlic" The Egyp.
ton onion is handsome and useful
vegetable, and by selecting the best
strains of seed the quality tends year
by year, to improve. The Egyptian
knows two varieties, the "Baali' and
the "Miskaoui," but supplies of the lat.
ter kind are seldom sent abroad, as
they absorb so much moisture from the
frequently irrigated ground in which
they are grown that they do not stand
a sea voyage we'll. The "Baali' onion
is the more popular Egyptian onion
and is grown In yellow soil, which is
sparingly watered while the bulbs are
maturing. in order that the onions may
stand lengthy sea voyage with little
risk of sprouting.

"In little town in the backwoods
of Mississippi" remarked travelling
man to the Birmingham Age Herald.
"there is peculiar hotel. II is just like
any other hotel except in the way the
rooms are named. They are not num-
bered as is generally done, but each
room was named for state in the
United States. When | stopped at
the place | was assigned to room
called Delaware--it was correctly
named, too, for it was one of the small
est rooms in the house. A man who
occupied New Hampshire made COM
drunk and boisterous, and waskeeping
him awake. This seems strange when
we recall the fact that Maine is pro-
hibition state. Two men up in Mon
tana were keeping up the reputation
of the wild west by engaging in noisy
poker game. A big fat capitalist had
New York, which was the best room
in the house. The room called Ala
bama was too ordinary for anything
and farmer was occupying it the
night | was there. 1t was funny to
stand in the office and hear bellboy
tell the clerk that towels were wanted
i'm Iowa and the fellow in North Da-
kota was kicking like bay steer be-
cause he had no fire. Send two Man
haitian cocktails up to Mississippi was
one of the orders the clerk gave. BE
sure to call the man in Florida at
O'Clock in the morning, said one of the
employees. And thus it went. This
hotel is a curiosity toihe travelling pub
lie. 1t is conducted by an eccentric
old fellow, but where he ever conceived
the idea of naming the rooms after the
different states do not know.

A comparative anatomist says that
the little toe has got to go; that it is a
useless appendage, already showing
signs of degeneration or whitening
away. 1t is proved that the horse, III
the course of several centuries, has
dropped four toes and now travels on
one, and some tlink that mans pedal
extremities are bound to follow a sim
liar line of evolution. In the horse II
is the middle digit which has survived
