This is one amongst those being
banded about by the rural press:
The man who handles the local
department of newspaper learns
after due experience not to expect
very many thanks for a column of
pleasant things, but he knows as
surely as comes the seasons, that a
single line, which is an unintentional
mistake, will cause some one to be
heard. Also that when he has made
pleasant mention 80 times of some
person, place or thing. but on the
thousandth time fails TO do So he
must not expect to be forgiven. .

The Fourth of July was spent vari-
ously by our people. A few went by
buggy to Lucedale, where a Picnic
was on. The A. g. NJ. Excursion
train took out a large crowd, picking
them up all along the way This
crowd split into companies two
larger squads of which went to Fruit
dale and Chronicle, while a smaller
number journeyed on down to Mobile
for the day. Owing to the down
train being eight hours late, the re-
turn was not accomplished to Leakes-
vile till the very late hour of three
O'Clock.

A Teacher Tauuht.

DR.. Vaughan, for many years head
master at Harrow. once had an anus
ing encounter with a small boy who
carried off the honors of the occasion
The incident greatly pleased the doc
tor.
A frightened child named Dodd wa1
brought before Dr. Vaughan. charged
with some dire scholastic offense.
What is your name?" asked tho
master, with due severity.
'Dodd, sir" answered the trembling
boy
'nodd! Do you spell it with one d.
or with two?"
NO, sir, three" answered the boy.
The doctor put his head upon the
desk. covered it with his hands a
moment, and then dismissed the dan
gerous criminal with a warning.
He said afterward: II could no
more have punished that boy than |
could have flown. Nobody before ever
gave me such a lesson in spelling."-

Threatened Revival of chiqnon.

Nine. Marie Paille. the autocrat Of
Partisan hairdressers, has decided
that the hideous chignon is to come
in again. All of feminine France
doubtless will bow in submission to
this decree. Englishwomen will fall
into line and 1t is not to be thought
that Uncle Sans daughters will lag
behind. The chignon has been des-
cribed as about on par as a bar
barrie ornamentation. with the nose
ring and the jingling bracelet. 1t is

ALL HAVE WIDE TIRES.
Reason Why European Highways Are
Better Than Ours.

In France every carriers md every
market cart, instead of injuring the
highway, improves it. Many of the
tires are ten inches wide. In the
four-wheeled vehicles of that country
the rear axle is fourteen inches longer
than the fore, and as a result the rear
wheels run in line about an inch
outside of the level rolled by the front
wheel. After a few loaded wagons
have passed over road the highway
looks as if steam roller had been at
work. A national law in Germany
prescribes that wagons heavily loaded
must have tires not less than four
inches wide. In Austria the minimum
for similar vehicles is six and a half
inches, in Switzerland six inches.

The Golden Willow.

The golden willow bows Its head
To winters piercing blast,
Its tender leaflets are all dead.
Its summer time long past;
And yet though skies are overcast,
Come wind or rain, come hail or snow
It holds the sunshine OF the past
Through all its branches golden glow.
oh, weary. storm-tossed soul! wilt thou
Its glowing message heed?
Though rates rude storms surround thee
now,
And life seems dread indeed;
Still hope through grief or loss or pain.
Joys at thy feet were cast;
Their memories thou must yet retain,
Smile FOR the sunshine that is past
