Political Speeches.

Some people think. for instance, that
political speeches do not matter. Po-
litical speeches matter far more than
the acts of parliament which they In
troduce. Men care less even about
what is being done than about why II
Is being done. The spirit in which a
thing is effected is Of far more practi,
cal Importance even than the thing 1t.
self. This cun be tested by the simple
experiment I'm social life Of removing q
gentleman's hat for him, first In one
spirit, then in the other. II you get rid
Of all the talk about practical politics
talked by tired men with 10000 q
year, and really look impartially at the
history of human society you will see
that collisions have arisen far more
from insults than from injuries. Some
of my impcrialist friends. for instance,
tell me that because think South Afri.
ca Il nuisance to England therefore
should permit Germany to pluck II
from us in war. This Is like saying
that because think top hat ugly and
uncomfortable should let another man
knock 1t off In Piccadilly. No doubt II
is uncomfortable. But why should he
knock 1t off? Who Is he? l WONDER

NORTH TURNER, July 18th, 1905.
For the last six weeks l have spent
most of my time in various places, Rum.
ford, Hartford, Sumner, Auburn and
North Turner. 1t Is what might be
called sort of rantum scoot.
While at Rumford l called at the post
Office and hung around until most noon,
then the postmaster said he would in
vite me to dinner If would not say any
thing about it in the Democrat. was
very hungry and promised not to men
ton it. The postmaster when left
said that must be neighborly.
After that l journeyed to Hartford,
but by some oversight l got carried to
East Sumner, so | suppose owe the
railroad company 10 cents and they owe
me an apology. My friend, Orville Bar
rows, invited me to take dinner with
him. Then worked around to Buck
field and Auburn and visited my friends,
who did all they could to keep my
head above water.
l finally landed at North Turner where
l have been for the last two weeks and
four days. The man where am stop
ping owns good sized farm and keeps
lot of good sized cows. help milk
the cows and hoe on the high points Of
the garden and wash my feet in the low
points.
They had q sort of one horse celebra-
ton at North Turner village which was
very entertaining to me. The pro.
gramme consisted of custard pie and
horribles. The horribles consisted of
men, women and children of all de-
scriptions.-some with rags, some with
jags and some with velvet gowns.
After dinner we journeyed to the ball
ground where I listened to game Of
base ball, which think was success,
for all hands yelled enough to break up
a campmeeting. The noise became
rather monotonOus, and / asked an old
acquaintance when the game was ever
going to end. He said, "Not until they
had killed man." but it finally ended,
how, l don't know. Then we went to
the village, filled up with ice cream,
came homo, MIXED and went to bed.
The next day the lady of the house
proposed 10y way of SOLDERING off) to
hitch up and go and buy pig some.
where. We drove about four miles and
started up flock of pigs, which might
be called shoats, for they weig he'd 100
pounds apiece. After talking about an
hour we traded for one with the under.
standing that he should be we'll bagged
and we'll tied to all parts of the wagon.
We started for home and had very
good luck getting home with the pig.
He only got out four times, but We man
aged to coax him back. The man said
he was very we'll pleased with the pig
all but the gender.

SbnrD. Int Not Clever.

A London scientist says that life In q
metropolis makes young children sharp,
but not clever; that 1t often destroys
their chance of ever being clever, for
1t hastens the development Of the brain
unnaturally. 1t makes them superb
cial, alert, but not observant; excitable,
but without one spark Of enthusiasm.
They are apt to grow blase, tickle, dis
cOntented. They see more things than
the country bred child, but not such
interesting things, and they do not
properly see anything, for they have
neither the time nor capacity to get at
the root of all the bewlldering objects
that crowd themselves into their little
lives
