meadow to the narrow bridge, he in

There they paused, and stood for a
few minutes face to face, talking
earnestly. Alleyne had read and
heard of love and of lovers. Such were
these, doubtless-this1 golden-bearded
man and the fair damsel with the cold
proud face. Why else should they
wander together in the woods, or be SO
lost in talk by rustic streams? And
vet as he watched, uncertain whether
to advance from the cover or to choose
some other path to the house, he soon
came to doubt the truth of his con-
lecture. The man stood, tall and
square, blocking the entrance to the
bridge, and throwing out his hands as
he spoke in a wild, eager FASHION,
while the deep tones of his stormy
voice rose at times into accents OF
menace and of anger. She stood fear

Letter to Jas. Thompson, WaIhaIla.

Dear Sis: If our agent charges you 10
cents more for q galloncof paint than
somebody else, don't think he is making
more profit. We charge him more. 1t
costs us more. 1t is all paint, true paint,
and full l-measure.
No other paint is all paint, true paint.
and full measure, SO far as we know.
That is wrong. We know some that are
pure and full-measure, but weak, thin,
too much oil and too little lead-and-zinc
IAN honest sort of weakness; don't
know any better, may be.
1t amounts to this: SO far as we know,
and we think we know the whole Ameri-
can trade; there is no other name but
Devoe that stands for all paint, full-mea-
sure, and right proportion. That's why
it takes less gallons and wears longer.

Good Work by Our Congressman.

T. Elsewhere in this issue is printed
some extracts from speech by Con-
gressmt q Aiken advocating increased
pay of rural carriers. The amend
ment whiv,. he offers to the appro.
priation bill is to increase their pay
to S84U. This is less than he for
melly asked for, hut in view of an
evident desire. ON the part of the
Post Office Department to cut down
aud cripple the service, he doubtless
,hon&hJ it futile to attempt greater
increase at,this time. There lis wis.
dom in the old saying that "half a
loaf is better than no loaf."E{ 5 ao
That he will ultimately, secure an
increase in the pay Of the carriers
there is little doubt. Persistence is
one of his strong points. Once he
has taken up d fight for his constiIu-
en,s, there is no let up until some
thing is done.
i "A year or so ago he began the
fight for the establishment of bu-
reau of information on Ellis Island
to2protect this State from worthless
immigrants, and topresent the ad-
vantages of the State to those really
worthy of citizenship. The daily
papers of the 18th bring the intelli-
gence that favorable report on an
amendment plumbing the line of his
bill will be made.
1t is through his persistence and
influence as a member of the Pension
Committee that al difficult cases of
pension for Spanish War and Mexi-
can War services have passed the
House. He has rendered services to
the Congressman of this State, North
Carolina and many other Southern
States, in this particular, for which
many have expressed sincere graft

the family refused to come out and,
therefore, escaped. On the trial all
of the members of the Rawlings
family, whose names are given, ex-
cept Leonard, were found guilty of
murder, and he received sentence
of life imprisonment. The Supreme
Court of Georgia affirmed the verdict
of the tria, Court, and the case was
brought TO the Federal Supreme

Mr. Aiken Defends Rural Carriers.

Washington, April 20.-One OF
the amendments to the post Office
bill introduced by Representative
Aiken provided for an additional
appropriation Of $4.000,000 for the
purpose of providing rural mail car.
riers with horse hire and wagon
equipment. Mr.. Aiken made speech
on this subject, portions of which
illuminate the subject of the rural
carrier service aud the attitude of
the postal authorities towards it con-
cerning the matter of the rural ser.
vices paying in n~dollars and cents.
"Bm has it been the policy of the
government to measure the utility OF
service by the actual dollars re.
verting through that service TO the
public treasury? Is thisSthe prece
dent established in voting hundreds
of thousands annually for extra fast
service on mail trainsp Is this the
precedent established in paying
bonuses to steamship lines for car.
rying few pounds of mail to remote
and comparatively unimportant
points in Central and South America
for the accommodation of few iso-
lated American citizensp Is this the
precedent in voting hundreds of
thousands of dollars for pneumatic
tube service, for the exclusive ac-
commodation of certain sections of
this country? Who will contend
that the government revenues are
Mcreased 81, directly, for $40. ex.
pended in any one of the ways we
have mentioned Why then should
we vary the rule when applied to
the rural delivery service2 Does it
count for nothing that this service is
linking in daily communication SEQ
tions heretofore remote and isolated !;
and that it is stimulating, to mar
velous degree, social and business
intercourse between country and
town? Does it count for nothing
that this service ,dispels, in large
measure, that isolation which makes
life in the country less desirable than
in populous centers?"
But it is Of the Carriers themselves
that Mr.. Aiken gave most attention
and his remarks went to the details
of the carriers work. Said he:
"The rural carrier receives $3.50 at
the most, must furnish his horse and
buggy and feed his horse, which re-
Aquires an annual outlay of not. less
than $3.50. 1t has been thoroughly
Rdemonstrated that good horse can
mot stand constant driving for more
3than two years, and that a buggy
Iwill wear out in that time, with con
2stant use needs no demonstration.
3Placing then the annual necessary
4expense to the carrier at not less
Athan $3.50, he is expected to ride 25
miles per day, 800 days in the year,
for less than $3.50. Is there a clerk,
Aof the thousands in the departments,
swho would exchange places with the
3rural carries, even with an increase
3of $500 in the carriers pay ?"
