but a gain to the pocket or the pass
ing satisfaction of the senses, which
consigns SO many to lives of duilness
and darkness; careers of unceasing
toll, without the compensations that
life will bring when conducted on a
higher plane. The schools are improv-
ing in the country, and this will do
something toward the elimination of
dullness and sordidness of existence
in remote hamlets; and when the boy
has mind that is quicker and better
stored he will adapt himself more
pliantly to his surroundings and dis
cover hundred sane pleasures where
now he sees none.
The Sentry is convinced that with
the lessening of discomfort through
the requirement of wider knowledge
of men and things in improved schools
WI come lessening of the cheap and
vulgar pleasures with which the coun-
try boy sometimes seeks to solace his
comparative isolation. Nature will
mean more to him; books will mean
more; his work will mean more and
he, will obtain an insight into arts and
sciences of which he now knows little
or nothing. The Sentry.

The influence Of the South.

Southern statesmanship created this
republic and guided its destinies,
through all of its expansion to the Pa
cific ocean up to 1860. Southern
craftsmanship gave practical realiza-
ton to the tenets of political philoso-
ply that guided the councils that
framed the organic law. That infiu-
ence made the United States of today
possible; 1t made them so strong and
stable that they have been able to re-
sist all the assault of opportunism,
that directs the policies of the Repub-
lican party, and that craftsmanship
may yet become effective in restoring
the balance Of power and authority be-
tween state and nation, now SO seri-
ously menaced for the endurance OF
the republic.-Meridian Star.

A live controversy has been caused
by the recent declaration of notable
lecturer to the effect that the lot of
the country boy is harder than that
Of the boy in the city, and that while
the country lad might secure better
physical health, his morals were pref
ty sure to be bad
One argument for the opposition will
be the apparent Inconsistency of this
declaration. For it is held by good
many students of sociology that health
is one of the best conservators of
morals and that it is the weakling that
goes wrong. We can not deny that
whatever country life may or should
mean to those who stay in the coun-
try and lead it, the strength of the city
comes from the hills. The men who
ere at the head of our commercial and
industrial enterprises, the men who
succeed in politics, the men who
achieve distinction in the professions
and the arts, came up on farms and
roughed it in their youth. They may
not have been better than the aver
age, but they have proved to be
brighter and stronger, nor do they mis-
behave to any remarkable extent after
they reach town.
The man who lives among the hills
yet sees nothing in the hills, might
better obey his social instinct and
come to town, where he can herd in
with some millions of others in the
tenements, just as the man who finds
no life in the contacts and noises OF
the town might better seek the hills
and lead the simple and contented life
If the farmers boy finds nothing in
nature to interest him he will natur.
ally be uneasy and will regard his life
as hard. He will therefore seek the
company of other boys of uneasy ma
ture and the probabilities are he will
lapse into mischief.
The indictments to crime are not SC
great in the country, as in the town
however. There Is less to beget nerv
business, and to induce the strain oil
competition so disastrous to thousands
In the city. There is no marked pow
erty in the villages. and as there is
no excessive wealth. a social level is
maintained, which. if not always high
is at least secure and sane. In the
city, and the contrary, the wide varia
tons Of fortune excite indifference on
the part, of the successful and bitter
ness among the failures.
4 The country boy may not. have SC
many good examples before his eyes
IS he should have, but at least, he has
not so many bad ones as the city boy
In both town and country it is the sub
stitution of material for social, or intel
lectual or spiritual ends, that causes
much of the wrong-doing. 1t is the

Sauce For the Camden.
A busy merchant was about to leave
home in Brixton for a trip on the con-
tinent, and his wife, knowing his aver
sion to letter writing, reminded him
gently Of the fact.
Nov. John, you must be eyes and
ears for us at home and drop US an
occasional post card telling us, any
thing Of interest. Don't forget, will
you, dearY
The husband promised The next
morning his wife received a postal
card: Dear Wife, reached Dover all
right. Yours aft"
Though somewhat disappointed she
thought her husband must have been
pressed for time. Two days later, how
ever, another card arrived, with this
startling announcement; Here am in
Paris. Yours ever" And still later:
II am indeed In Paris. Yours"
Then the wife decided to have lit
tie fun and seized her pen and wrote:
"Dear Husband-The children and I
are at Brixton. Yours"
A few days later she wrote again,
1--WE are still in Brixton."
In her last communication she grew
more enthusiastic: Dear Husband
Here we are in Brixton. l repeat II,
sir, we are In Brixton. P.S.-We are
indeed"
