A SPRY Old LADY.

The possession of something like
$40, 600, 900 and the reputation of being
the. richest woman in America do not
seem to weigh very heavily on Mrs.
Hetty Green, if one may judge by the
reports of her continued activity these
DAYS. She is still as fond of money
and as anxious to add to her millions
as she was fifteen or twenty years ago.
Mrs. Green S father, says the Pitts
burg Dispatch, was New Bedford
Mass man, Edward Mott Robinson,
who became rich in the whaling bust
ness, leaving her $1,000 900: she got
other millions from her aunt, Mrs.
Sylvia Rowland, to get which involv-
ed some litigation and charges of
forgery against her. She was quite a
belle in her youth, and yet never seem
ed susceptible to any sentiment except
money getting: so that she was mar
ried to &. II. Green, who had made a
fortune in the China trade on bust
ness basis. She owns railroads,
mines and other things too numerous
to mention, and she has a son, Edward
Rowland Robinson Green, who Is a
capable and enterprising railroad
man in Texas.
Mrs. Green has a reputation for a
hard and grasping nature and for liv-
ing as poorly and dressing as shabbi-
ly as if she had not a penny in the
world. How much injustice is done
her by these tales of her miserly ways
and narrow and wretched life it is not
for us to say. But if they are only
measurably true there is not woman
in the world more unenviable than
Mrs. Hetty Green.

CITY AND COUNTRY

Public opinion on many matters
swings like a pendulum. Thirty years
ago thecountry was exalted as the home
of all the virtues, the city denounced
as the hot bed of iniquities A few
wears ago it was the country which
was under indictment. Certain little
towns were declared to be sinks of
sin. in which the hopeless dwellers,
cut off from that which makes life
worth living, were sinking in the scale
of decency. Now the pendulum has
swung back again.
A writer in late issue of The hide
pendent has set forth some of the
characteristics of the village people
with whom she observation-disclosures
with the small income which village
industries afford: frank and friendly
interest in ones neighbors: demo-
cratic spirit which recognizes the
worth of all honest work; pride in
performance which springs from the
feeling of individuality; honesty in
trade and willingness to err on the
side of generosity rather than mean
ness in making bargain.
These are all splendid and whole
some qualities, and there is no doubt
that they exist in every village and
every town. But so, too, do they ex-
ist in the cities, side by side with the
meanness and sins which the country
town shares with the city. SO gener-
alities here, as elsewhere, are of little
account

THE TRAGEDY OF POVERTY.

the condition which ends in despera-
tion and self-destruction, and it was
that condition in which the Buffalo
suicide who furnished the text for the
Syracuse preacher found himself
Doubtless it was his own fault that he
was without money and friends. Us
uallv these two needfuls to toIera bic
existence are lacking. The indlvld-
ual NAV attempt to blame fate ana
shift the responsibility to other shout
ders than his own. But reason tells
him that it is his own fault. If it IS
hell to be poor" as the preacher
said, and one finds himself in that &c.
henna, it is merely the working out OF
an ever present retributive justice.
The ''hell" of poverty is in one 5
conscience. The most poverty strlck-
en- persons are not those who have few
est dollars, but those who have trans
crossed the laws of right living. A
crust of bread and a draught OF water
with a clear conscience are more to be
desired than great riches with the
knowledge that they were acquired by
dishonest methods. Savannah News.

No NATURAL wHIsKEY.

The pure food bill which has just
been passed by the United States SEN
ate provides that distillers and deal
ers shall conform to certain stand
ard. A representative of the dis
tillers went before the committee haV-
ing the bill in charge the other day,
and testified that there was no such
thing as a natural whiskey; that all
whiskey was artificial, and that there
could be no standard set that would
be fair to everybody. That must be
interesting to those who consume the
stuff. Meanwhile, if people will drink
whiskey why shouldn't they have all
the protection that the Hepburn bill,
or any other bill, can give them? The
dispatches during the past few weeks
have told of the death Of several per-
sons poisoned by whiskey made OF
wood alcohol. While all whiskey is
bad, from moral point of view, that
is no reason why INSCRIPTIONS deal
ers should be permitted to poison peo-
pie for profit.

Baptist Church of Syracuse, N. y,

At first glance the selection of the
expression as a text for sermon
might appear to be hippant. But it
isn't, nor did the preacher treat it IN
that light. The deepest pathos and
the most intense human interest are
involved in the expression. The pinch
of poverty is the most cruel OF all
hurts. since it wounds both physically
and mentally. If physical suffering
alone were involved it might be pass
ed over and laughed at, but there, IS
in it a soaring of self-respect that
leaves a scar forever.
Poverty, of course, is a relative
term. All things are relative: Inc
man without a dollar in the world, but
with health, stout heart, a clear con
science and the respect of his fellows
is infinitely richer than he who has a
horde of gold and nothing else IN the
world. To be really poor is to have
neither money nor friends. That is

MISS EMILY POWELL.

Good Woman.


Good Woman.
Our dear friend, Miss Emily Powell,

where all is JOY, peace, rest and hap

dear, good woman. She was a sweet
christian character, an Obedlent and
dutiful daunhter, a kind and loving
sister, and an affectiOnate aunt to her
nephew, Master Hill Kelly, and a
friend to all. Early in life she joined
the Methodist church, of which she was
a consistent member. She loved her
Saviour, and daily followed in His
footsteps. She enjoyed religion and
loved her church, and it may be we'll
said of this dear christian woman,
"Well done, thou good and faithful
servant, come now and enter the joys
of thy blessed Lord. She was con-

All that medical skill and loving

She is survived by one brother and
one orphan nephew, who will sadly

sister. Her remains were laid to rest
in the new cemetery at Brentwood, the
last sad rites being performed by her
pastor.
The writer knew Miss Emily init
mately. She exercised a gentle in

THE JUG TRADE.

There is a growing sentiment all
over the country against the shipment
of whisky into counties or communi-
ties in which the people have, by their
votes, declared for prohibition. AS a
result appeals are being made to al
most every law-making body to enact
statutes against what is commonly
known as the jug trade. The agita-
ton has even reached congress. A
few days ago Representative Williams
of Mississippi spoke before the house
committee on judiciary in support of
a bill to prevent the c. o. d. ship
ments of liquor into prohibition dis
tricts. He said this method of ship
ping liquor enables the blind tigers to
thrive, and many communities in Mis-
sissippi are so much incensed over
this encouragement of the unlawful
liquor selling by the express cOmpa-
MES that attacks upon express Offices,
which are in effect bars, need cause
no surprise. Mr.. Williams said he
is not a radical prohibitionist, but
he believes that where communities
decide on local option the United
States should not stand in the posi-
ton of assisting the Iawbreakers by
permitting c. 0. D. shipments into
such districts. He said that he has
no thought of interfering with the
right of individuals to buy liquor and
have it shipped wherever they please
but desires that the wholesale ship
ment of liquors to fictitious persons
be stopped.
If the jug trade evil is ever stopped
it will have to be done by congress
Under the inter state commerce Law
no other legislative BODY can effectu
ally deal with it.

His wife is happy because he IS hen

arrangement his lot is one to be en-
We'd. Every married man is henpeck-

only difference is that some men ac-
