HAVING NICE PEOPLE AROUND.

1t would be fine if all neighbors and the people
have to meet every day good, kind, courteous
people, wouldn't it, Now can't change them all just
would like to do but there rule that will do
wonders toward making them what would like have
them be, and that Isl be yourself the kind of a
person you would like to have your neighbor
be- There three good reasons why this the best rule
you adopt:
First Your neighbor will treat you about
as you treat him. If you quarrelsome, he will
quarrel with you If you generous he will be generous
to you. II you he will try get with you.
Do you would be done by and you will be done by
as you did.
Secondly If you just the right of person your
neighbors will know and they will like you and the more
they like you the more they will grow like you.
One walking worth twenty preached Many
people think that honesty doesn't pay and that can't be
kind and good all the time There's only one way you
can prove they are wrong-you know what it isl
Thirdly there children all around that going
to be the men and women OF the country in few
years. You think they don't notice what you do but they
watching you all the time and copying your words and
actions and your motions They learn ten times
as much from what you do and what you are
as from what you say. II you want the children to
become the finest kind of and women, don't talk
them much but show them.

THE STORMY PETREL.
Why the Bird ReveIs IN a Tumult Of
the W:ad and Waves.

The Storm pctrci, alias Mother
Carcv's chicken, Proccllaria pela-
ga. or Occanites o2eanicus, accord
ing as re have reference to the spe-
cirs Of the eastern or western At
lantic, l,as rot got the cplthet OF
stormy" for nothing. The bird
ap2cars to rcyel in a tumu!t of the
winds and waves and actually does
70 Tor a good and sufficient reason.
This is that its food supply is very
mach mere abundant whcn the
ocean is agitated than when it is at
rest. Then the petrol has decid-
ed habit of following ships, which
has really nothing to do with I'M
pending storm. No, it see Ks the
Ship not because it is afraid y lone
", but simply because the ship agi-
tates the waters. Very likely as it
follows a storm may spring up, and
then, seeing the bird so obviously
delighted, poor superstitious Jack
not unnaturally thought there was
some connection between them.
From this to a belief in compan-
ionship in evil was only step:
The queer notions about the
stormy petrol did not end here. 1t
was believed-and the naivete OF
this belief is decidedly racy Of poor
Jack-that it carried its eggs un,
der its wing and Matched them on
the water. 1t was also believed
that it could appear at will in the
neighborhood Of a ship anywhere
about the ocean. All this certain
" pointed to necromatic or uncan'
nv power, and i. is not to be won
dered at that the bird became such
an object of fear and aversion te
the Door man before the mast.
The poet Coleridge has left US I
fine picture of the terrifying infu
ence of the albatross on the ancient
mariner, but no poet seems to have
awakened to the possibilities OF th'
stormy petrol as q theme. How
ever, we read much about it of ant
on in old chronicles or tales OF tn,
sea. In one Of these it is recorded
that the sailors, seeing the heralt
of storm Join the ship too near land
as they supposed, mutinied and re
fused to proceed. = Forest AM

Want More Cotton to Gin.

Some time during the summer
months the people OF this inn
mediate vicinity appealed to-
the home office of the South At
lantic Oil Co for better ginning
facilities. Our ginneries were,
all overhauled and gotten in
readiness to meet the gathering
OF the cotton crop, but We have
not been able to operate our
plants to their fullest capacity
d single day this entire fall In
fact, we have had to close down
the downtown ginIery because
our supply of cotton was INSULT
cient to keep them all running
Even with this We are not over
worked at oil mill ginnery.
We advertised that We were
ready to handle all the cotton
that could be brought US for a
radius of ten miles and that We
could turn out bale at this
gin every ten minutes and we
were not joking. It looks as if
too much cotton cannot be
brought US and every one that
wishes to get cotton ginned will
save time by giving US their
patronage.
We charge $500 where We fur
nish second hand bagging and
So 25 when new bagging is fur
nished. Considering that this.
is one of the best cotton markets
in any section of the county,
not saying anything of the seed
market, for it is a candid fact
that the best cash prices are al
ways obtained here for them
and best exchange for cotton
seed meal, isn't it a question
of economy to have your cotton
hauled here and ginned, letting
us handle your seed for the cash
or meal given in exchange which
we will warrant is always to
your advantage to do, then your
cotton is already here where
the market is always good!
Bring your cotton for US to gin
and let us handle your seed. See
that we are kept busy, and We
will busy ourselves for you>

Some Extraordinary Mothers.

Probably the youngest grand
mother Of whom we have record
was a Lady Child of Shropshire,
England. She had married at twelve
years of age and had child before
her thirteenth year was completed.
This child in turn married while
still very young, with the result
that Lady Child was grandmother
at twenty-seven. The most extraor-
dinary cases Of motherhood were
those of Mrs. Honeywood of Char
ing, in Kent, and Lady Temple Of
Stow. When the former died, on
MAY 10, 1920, aged ninety-three,
she counted as her descendants six
teen children, ia grandchildren,
22S great-grandchildren and nine
great-great-grandchildren The 9TH
er case was even more remarkable.
Lady Temple, who died in 1856,
had given birth to four sons and
nine daughters and lived to see
more than 700 descendants.

Puzzled the Queen.

The queen of Denmark once paid
q visit to the Danish colony in Ice
land, where the good old bishop did
his utmost to show her everything
which was worth seeing. The queen
paid many compliments to her host
and, knowing that he had children,
asked how many. Now it happens
that the Danish word for children"
is almost identical with the Iceland
ic name for Sheep" so the good
bishop, whose Danish was not quite
so good as it might have been, un-
derstood that her majesty was ask
ing how many sheep he owned and
answered, "Two hundred" 1.-TWO
hundred childrenw cried the queen
in amazement. "How can you pos
sibly maintain such NUMBER"
"Quite easily" said the prelate,
smiling cheerfully. '1n summer I
turn them out on the hills to Craze
and when winter comes I eat them"
