 "Ge s,rem ez bez;' the Arabian. very shortly. "Nehabeeck;" the Egyptian, sim. liar. "N' achkeb;" the Turk. "Sisi sevejo- rum" and the Hindoo. Main tym kc pijar karyn." But overwhelming is the declaration of love of an Equismau, who tries to win the chosen one by the pleas ing sound of the dainty little word: 'Univ ifigssaerntdluinalerimajungnarsigujak."

MIschievous Habit.

"The habit that some of the young boys have acquired" said Policeman Sin clair last evening. "of placing cartridges on the tracks of the electric cars is @ bad one. You will frequently hear a report which sounds like a revolver, when 1t Is simply the explosion of cartridge placed in the path of an electric car by some bad boy. Such an explosion occurred Sun day night, and the bullet from the cart ridge ranged towards the J. R. Brown To- bacco company No damage was done. but such probability is readily imagined. Some of these days one of those bullets will plough upward through a car and injure a passenger. The habit should be stopped''

JOSEPH G. CANNON.

From the New York Sun.
 Compliments for the speaker are al- ways In order in the closing days of a session of Congress but there is nothing perfunctory about the tributes paid to the Hon. Joseph G. Cannon.
 There has been no presiding officer better liked In our time, and MT. Cannon is admired and esteemed in spite of the fact that his policy has raised up a large body of insurgents in his own party, and in spite of periodical denunciation as an iron-handed. despot by an unterrified but helpless minority.
 How can the language of amiable hyper bole used by Representative Townsend in speaking of MT. Cannon in the House be accounted for? Is the speaker 'deyotedly loved by every member? Is he. to quote Mir. Townsend, younger than the young est and stronger than the strongest, the noblest Roman of us all?"
 well preserved and remarkable man is Uncle Joe,'' but a partisan withal. and @ good hater as well as a staunch friend. He would be the last man in Congress to wear halo. and he has no illusions about his greatness. The secret of his popularity fin the House Is com poslte. He is always one of the 'sboys," his heart being on the floor with them, although he sits in the exalted chair of speaker and rules them grinly for their own and the country's good; they know him as a thoroughly trained and sapient legislator who never loses his head; his human nature is all-embracing and equal to every emergency; he is so good an American that he might pass for Uncle Sam himself.
 Other speakers have been looked up to and even feared, and many have enjoyed the esteem of their associates; but MT. Cannon has won and retained their per- sonal affection while commanding their respect under the most trying circum- stances.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

From the New York Press
 The comforts of home include the dis comforts of paying for them.
 There is nobody in the world who can guess what color a little girls black hair is going to be when she grows up.
 It's just as easy to tell a girl she is pretty as not to, and it is easier for her to believe you than for you to tell her.
 The worst kind of reputation to have is where nobody knows exactly what you nave done, so everybody suspects a diff ferent thing about you.
 The man who worries about not being able to pay his debts has the satisfaction at least of knowing the fellows he owes are also worrying just as hard.

Maklnu Progress.

''I was in Mobile recently said Leo k. Steiner, "and was glad to see evidences of substantial progress there. The old town is delightful place of residence. but for extraordinary push and industrial development Birmingham easily leads all the cities in Alabama.
 Not even Atlanta makes the strides that Birmingham is making. Ten years ago Birmingham's bank deposits were only about S2,50o,OO0. Today they reNch nearly SIS, ,00O, ,0O0"

BLEEDING RUGS.
From Country Life in America.

From Country Life in America.
 It is, l believe, still favorite diversion for ''cozy-corner editors gravely to in form their readers that the way to test a rug for aniline dyes is to rub it with a handkerchief that has been wet in the mouth; if any loose color comes off the rug must be wrong. The opposite is true. Aniline dyes are comparatively fast and the test you can easily try for your self on any American carpet. But many vegetable-dyed rugs run when water is applied. while Bokharas bleed like a stuck pig" To prevent them from run ning theY must be carefully washed

TIME TO WAKE UP,

From the Columbus Ledger.
 There is a strong sentiment among the people of Alabama in favor of building mansion for the governor of the state. It Is very strange thing that a rich and prosperous state like Alabama, with thousands and thousands of dollars in the treasury. has no home for the chief executive. Alabama should wake up. there is such a thing as being economical as to suggest the idea of stinginess

 made by the editor," said a solemn man. ITO hear a recital of his woes-of his poverty, his long hours. his forbearance and his cheerfulness in the face of crushing misfortune. you would think him far above the ruck of humanity.

I am for the poor, downtrodden subscriber, the man who has to put up with personal vituper- ation in the columns of his paper when he pays to get the news, who is handed a daily dish of mud slung from the edi- torial pen instead of thoughtful editorials which might help him along the way of life, whose paper Is stolen by the news boy four or five days week and sold on the street, who calls around to talk poli- tics and is showed off to the exchange table. who always boosts the paper, no matter how poor it is, because the editor says his sheet Is local enterprise and finally never has his name spelled right when he does happen to break Into print Darn the editor I'm a subscriber"
