We all admit that telephones are a
great convenience, yet they OCCASION
ally make man feel like breaking the
third commandment. Some times on
a busy day when work is rushing and
your 'phone rings twenty-eight times
and only two rings are OF any import
ance, the other twenty-Six being calls
from some one wanting to speak to
your help, the inquiry being us Miss
- or Mr.. - in?" This takes two
from their work twenty-six times,
and some one has to pay for all that
lost time in addition to the annoy
ance. 1t doesn't look just right, now
does it? During working hours,
phones in business houses, at least,
should be used for business only.

Not Booming, But Growing Steadily.

A business with steady and solid
growth is better than for it to boom.
Good insurance has saved many busi-

millions in the South, and with am
pie resources is great favOrite in this

One Person In Every Ten is lIIiterate.

According to census use of the term
an illiterate is a person not under ten
years of age who is unable to write
either in English or in any other Ian
guage. In most cases the illiterate is
also unable to read. At the census of
1900 the number of illiterateS enum-
Grated in the United States, exclusive
of Alaska, Hawaii, and all other out
lying territory, was 6,180,069. This
was approximately One-tenth OF the
population at least ten years ago, the
exact mathematical proportion being
1865 illiterateS to 1000 population.
The fact that tenth of the pOpu-
latlon above nine years have failed to
obtain even the little education that
is implied in the ability TO read and
write seems to indicate rather sur
priSing degree of ignorance, rejecting
upon the boaSted efficiency of the
the patriotic American Will naturally
inquire whether this is not mainly due
to the presence in our population of
the foreign born and the negro and
will be somewhat reaSSured to find
that when the comparison is restrict
ed to the native white population, the
proportion is 1855 per 1000 and for
the negro 444.7. Moreover. interna-
tiOnal comparisons, restricted as far
as possible to corresponding classes of
the population, are on the whole fav-
Orable to this country, indicating that
in most European countries, illiteracy
is much more prevalent that it is here,
although the United States is still far
behind Germany, Sweden and Nor
way, Denmark and Switzerland. |
There is also ground for satisfaction
and encouragement in the statistical |
evidence that illiteracy is steadily be-
ing reduced. In 1890 the number of |
per 1000 was 1884 for the
total population, 62.3 for the native |
white population, 1906 for the for
eign born white, and SCI. 6 for negroes,
including Indians and MongOlians.

The Grenada Sentinel has come out
strongly in favor of Hon. Earl Brewer
for governor Other papers are be-
ginning to show their colorS, too, and
if there are any unannounced gentle
men in the state who contemplate
entering the derby, they will do we'll
to let it be known now, if they expect
to obtain the support of any of the
state press, for the latter will all soon
settle upon some of those now in the
race, unless they are certain of some
other whom they would prefer, yet
entering. Quite number Of papers
have heretofore made known their
choice and, as far as we have seen,
Noel, Scott and Brewer are going to

And pleads: ME amt sleepy. papa.

If we do what we may in earnest.
we need not mourn if we work no
great work on the earth. To help
the growth of thought that strug-
giles toward the light: to brush with
gentle hand the earth-Stain from the
white of one snow drop-Such be our
ambition,
To pure, sensitive, and affec-
tionate mind, every act of finding
fault, or dealing in condemnation, is
an act of pain. 1t is only when we
have become callouS to the world, and
strangers to sentiments of compass
Slonate love, that we are able to play
with unconcern the parts of perSecu-
tors and SANDERS, and that we can de-
rive any pleasure from malignlty and
revenge. He who is the first to con-
denim, will be often the last to for
give.

MARRIAGE.

and the woman for the man. Each is
incomplete without the other. In
our experience even those who have
married indfferently will have devel-
Oped cOmpleter and nObler characters
than those who have remained single
Marriage teaches both the man and
woman tolerance, patience, tender
ness. 1t lullS the passions and Sum-
ulateS the intelligence. When there
are children the noblest virtues and
aspirations are aroused Father and
mother are united in the desire to do
their utmost for the helpless little
ones who depend upon them altogeth-
er, and make life fresh and young and
beautiful for them.
There are certain men no woman
should dare to marry. She would not
dare to marry man she does not love,
no matter how exemplary his charac-
ter and how attractive his bank ac-
count. Happiness in marriage is first
and foremost dependent upon the
individual and his power of not
simply respect, but the deepest and
cOmpleteSt devotion. The man who
would make one woman divinely hap
py would make another miserable, be-
cause she is not his mate, and the
good Lord Lever meant her to dwell
with him. There must be that con-
geniality, that sympathy, that mex
preSSible something that men call
love, that accepts it's mate altogether,
ignoring all faults, bearing all things,
believing all things, hoping all things,
enduring all things, never failing in
tenderness and loyalty even though
the whole world Shonld turn against
the beloved one. Such a love is worth
waiting for and worth living for. To
most women there is not much else in
the world worth living for-and to
most men also, since it is the only
sure basis for permanent happiness.
No matter how much woman may
think she loves him, she should not
dare to marry diSSipated man.
True love is rooted and grounded in
respect. A woman may pity profound
ly man of weak character, but she
cannot love him. Pity is sc akin to
hove that women are deceived by it
into the belief that it is q real devo-
tiOn. But it will not last. 1t is no
proper foundation for the married
state. The more intimate your rela-
tions with disspated man, the more
worthless he seems. He is like a rot
ten branch that the first wind will
sweep to the ground. There is no de-
pendence upon him, no pleasure in
him, no true love for him.

The trade territory of town Is not
at all dependent upon the distance to
neighborng trading points. The
trade territory depends upon the en-
terprise of the merchants and the res
idents of the town. If a town does
not reach after the trade 1t will come
only as fast as it has to, and 1t will
grow as it is forced to. But IL the
merchants 90 after business In the
surrounding country, advertising in
every possible way. and making good
every word of their adverti sing, trade
will come from an everincreasing rad
ius, the town will gain reputation
for being awake and it will forge to
the front. II is the men in the town
and not altogether the men living
within a certain number OF miles from
it that makes the town.
Only one county in the state Will
pay as much into the state treasury
this year as it will receive, and that
one county is Houghton with its en-
ormous mine valuations. Some Of the
COUNTIES will receive ten times as
much as they Will pay, and these coun-
ties through all the years TO come will
receive very much more from the
state treasury than they Will pay to it
through their returns on state taxa
tlon account. The fact that the state
tax will be lower this year than usual
and the primary school payments very
much greater than ordinarily, can pos
sibly explained by democrat campaign
orators and editors, but the informa-
tion In that direction which this ex-
PLANTATION will include will be inter.
esting to Michigan voters and taxpay-
ers and will be decidedly helpful TO re-
publican candidates.
