From the BountifuI East.

A small proportion Of the fora is in
digenous. The majority came from
the east, like all the great ideas on
which our culture is founded, and were
developed and improved on this classic
soil. Italy received the lemon and
the orange from the Semites, who in
their turn had obtained them from
India. The olive. the fig. the vine and
the palm were grown by the Semites
long before their cultivation penetrat-
ed to the west. The laurel and myr-
tie. indeed. are indigenous in Italy, but
their use for ceremonial purposes came
across the Mediterranean from the
east. The home Of the cypress Is not
in Italy, but in the Greek archipelago,

THE PARIS CLUBS.
Election to the Most Exclusive Ones
Is n Serious Business.


Is a Serious Business.
Election to the exclusive clubs OF
Paris is very serious business. The
proposer and seconder must not only
know all about their candidates. but
be able to bear witness to their ante
cedents and even to their forefathers.
They must write to all their friends
and ask them to support their candi-
dates. When the election takes place,
they must not only be in the room, but
approach each member individually as
he comes up to the ballot box and ask
him for his support.
When the member has been elected,
he arrives the first day as kind Of
stranger and with his hat in hand. He
is then formally introduced by one Of
his proposers to each member sepa-
rately who happens to be in the room
at the time. On the second occasion
he has ceased to be a stranger and may
leave his hat in the hall. but he is still
expected to go round the room with
one Of his proposers and be formally
introduced. This lasts for a week, by
which time he Is assumed to know all
his colleagues, though foreigner who
Is extra punctilious and insists on be-
ing introduced to every member Of the
club gains considerably in popularity.

The Pathetic Career Of John Stow
the English AntiQuary.

The Pathetic Career Of John Stow,
the English AntiQuary.
John Stow. the celebrated English
antiquary, was remarkable man. He
was born of poor parents about 1925
and brought up to the tailor's trade.
For forty years his life was passed
among needles and thread, but in the
few leisure hours which his trade al
lowed him he had always been a fond
reader of LEGENDS, chronicles, histories
and all that told of the times that
were past. BY such reading he grew
to be so attached to old memoirs that
when about forty years of age he
self to collecting them and followed
his new profession with the faith and
enthusiasm Of an apostle. Short of
means, he made long journeys afOot
to hunt over and ransack colleges and
monasteries, and, no matter how worn
and torn might be the rags Of old pa
pers which he found, he kept all. re-
viewing. connecting, copying, compar-
ing, annotating, with truly wonderful
ability and good sense. Arrived at
fourscore years and no longer capable
of earning Il livelihood. he applied to
the king, and James L., cOnsenting to
his petition, granted to the man who
had saved treasures Of memoirs for
English history the favor of wearing a
beggar's garb and asking aims at
church doors. In this abject state,
forgotten and despised, he died two
years later

People have danced for thousands Of
years and will probably continue to
do SO for ages to come. This custom
Is of ancient origin. The first people
to dance were the Curetes. who adopt
ed dancing as mark Of rejoicing In

combined dancing with the drama, and
in % B. c. pantomimic dances were
introduced on the Roman stage. At

In a recent article on the freight
carried on inland waterways, the
transportation facilities are alarm
ingly inadequate SO far as the rail
ways were equipped in milage, cars
and motive power. The expression
was none too strong. 1t has been
appreciated for years and the singu-
lar feature of the question is that
the great railway managers, while
last to admit the fact, are now fore
most IN their concession that while
railway facilities are being increased,
the volume of trade and commerce is
annually increasing at rate with
which they cannot hope to keep pace.
1t is a fact that needs no demonstra-
ton; neither does it need demonstra-
ton that without means of transpor-
tation to market, no article is OF
the slightest value. no matter what
amount of expenditure has been en-
ployed in its production. The rail
way men, no less than the manufac-
lures and the merchant, the farmer
and the miner, are agreed that the
relief can only be found in the ade-
quate improvement Of the natural
highways of the country, such as the
Ohio River is affording continuous,
a broad, a cheap. safe and switch
less road for traffic, not confined be-
tween narrow rails, but upon which
magnificent fleets may pass without
necessity for side tracking and on
which there would be no blocks to be
cleared for the passage OF another
feet. That would be the Ohio river
Crittenden record=press. [volume] (Marion, Ky.) 1907-1909, 1907-05-23

improved to its nine foot stage and
of the lucrative necessity for the
fact that the tonnage of one Of its
cities, Pittsburg, exceeded 120, 900.
900 tons in 1906 is ample to estab-
lish There Is not community on
the banks of the Ohio which does
not know and appreciate the strangle
hold which inadequate facilities for
transportation has upon its trade and
commerce. Nor is there a community
that does not know that with ad-
equate facilities, such as would be
furnished by the nine foot stage in
the Ohio, the tonnage of Pittsburg,
enormous though it is, would be
greatly increased. So would the
tonnage Of every community in the
Ohio Valley be increased over its
present proportions. Facilities for
transportation mean increase in
business as certainly as inadequate
facilities, such as exist today, mean
periods of stagnation where there
should be one constant period OF
business and industrial activity.
The Ohio Valley owes it to the whole
country, no less than Its own enter
prises, to march steadily and in
unity to the accomplishment of the
nine foot stage from Pittsburg to
Cairo.
