"5. Ny next point Is a very old
one, and yet it will do no harm to
bring 1t to mind once more. In the
very beginning of your business ca
reer do not be too close observer OF
the clock. Do not be afraid to arrive
at the Office or store a few minutes
before the prescribed hour, and do
not put on your hat and coat so as to
leave at the very minute fixed for clos
ing. Emergencies arise in all lines
Of business when the hours may have
to be prolonged somewhat, and the
young man who reluctantly stays, or
declines to stay, Is not the one who Is
likely to be retained, much less to be
advanced.
"6. Endeavor to maintain cheer
full demeanor under all circumstances.
Your employer, you may think, Is
cranky at times, but you cannot al
ways know the heavy load Of respon-
sibilities he often has to carry, and II,
for this reason, he should at times be
irritable, try to bear with him. OF
course, you are not required to sur
render your manhood or your inde-
pendence or anything which trans
crosses the bounds Of morality. Even
the man who seems to expect 1t from
you will most frequently recede from
his demands when he finds you i'm
movable In your stand for the right.
I'm the first Of these points I have
told you to endeavor to get position
in accord with your tastes. But 1t is
not always possible. Then make the
best Of what you do find, bide your
time until the desired thing arrives,
and 1t may be that the, discipline of
working at something that Is partial
ly distasteful to you may prove In the
long run to be Of the highest benefit"

TO DRAIN THE EVERGLADES.
Vast Area of Swamp Land In Florida
to Be Reclaimed.

Vast Area of Swamp Land In Florida
to Be Reclaimed.
To save and use some 100000 or
1000, 900 acres Of land, which has been
supposed to be waste and which has
been given over to reptiles and wild
animals, is the project which the gov
ernor Of Florida and certain of the
states capitalists have undertaken.
The famous Everglades are to be
drained, in fact-and O vast area OF
land which has been lost to the use OF
men, much Of which has been over
flowed with water and thousands Of
thousands OF acres Of which are al
most impossible swamp, are to be
brought under cultivation. Florida Is
to become a much more wonderful
state even than 1t has been heretofore
and that means q good deal.
A. 3. Clark in an interesting article
In the Technical World Magazine ex-
plains the difficulties in the way OF
saving this immense acreage and the
benefits which will accrue to the state
from the carrying out Of the enter
prise.
"The Importance of this immense
undertaking can with difficulty be
comprehended," says the writer. TT
is estimated in figures which can
scarcely be understood by the ordinary
mind. The reclamation Of this land
means the addition to Florida Of near
ly as much cultivated land as she now
has. 1t will mean the throwing open
to cultivation Of an area twice as large
as the state Of Connecticut.
TT means that Florida will become
the sugar producing state Of the Union
and that for her sugar products the
s150,000.000 will be paid which is now
annually sent abroad for imported SUI
gar, an amount expended for an i'm
port which exceeds by several million
dollars the value Of our united exports
OF corn, wheat, flour, beef and naval
stores. It means that Florida will In
a few years become one Of the richest
and most important states in the Un-

THE HEMPHIlL BOOM.
Northern Newspaper Pays Tribute to
Able South Carolinian.

Three men are recognized leaders
beyond others in the press of the south
They are Henry Watterson Of the Lou
isville Courier Journal, Clark Howell
oe the Atlanta Constitution, and James
c. Hemphill Of the Charleston News
and Courier. Col. Watterson has new
e. held political office, but has rather
declined all propositions involving
public station. Mr.. Howell has been
long among the leading politicians and
statesmen Of Georgia, both as editor
OF the newspaper first made famous by
the unrivaled brilliancy Of the late
Henry Grady and as a member Of the
legislature and presiding officer In turn
in both branches of that body, and also
as lieutenant governor.
Major Hemphill has followed until
this time the example Of Col. Waiter
son in abstaining from public office,
but his friends have taken the business
in their own hands and are making
great progress in a campaign in his
behalf for the seat in the United States
senate now held by Senator Latimer,
whose term expires with the present
congress in 1909. or his eminent fit
ness for that great office there Is no
room for doubt. HIS work for twenty
years as the directing mind and chief
editorial writer Of the News and Cour-
Ter has been of so admirable char
acter in breadth Of view, soundness of
argument from his premises, and ener-
gy Of statement, as to have made him
the most influential man in his state
for the welfare Of South Carolina.
Major Hemphill has natures gift OF
a superb personal presence and that
rare finish of manner which has been
characteristic for generations Of the
finest type of the southern gentlemen.
He has added to the collegiate train
ing Of his youth the further advan-
tages Of continual contact with public
men and close acquaintance with pub
lie affairs. He has acquired the wis.,
dom of years while his eye is not dim
med nor his natural force abated. He
will not resort to the pitchfork as a
weapon Of offense against the presi-
dent to the lasting injury Of the state
and her loss Of influence which really
belongs to her though represented by
senator opposed in politics to the ma
tional executive.
Most Of the public business Is done
with small regard for political points.
Reasonable men in the senate can do
we'll for their states though not Of the
majority on party questions. II Major
Hemphill is elected he will fill the po-
sition so ably and yet with such ur-
banity Of temper and manner as to re-
peat the proud days Of the Palmetto
state and regain for 1t that degree of
respect and power which the old COM
monwealth has justly enjoyed for

characteristics of the Red Ants That
Invade the Pantry.

The small red ant, the pest Of the
pantry in country or town, Is as clever
as she is bothersome, says writer in
the New York Tribune. Many a time
a despairing housewife has marked
path around the legs Of tables or re-
frigerators, to find next day that the
engineering corps had brought grains
Of sand to build a bridge over the tar
and that the workers were merrily
carrying off the sugar. syrup, or what
ever they had decided to store away
for winter. Once, when sand was
lacking, 1t was found that the work.
ers had returned to their village and
had brought over a drove Of their
cows and had stuck them in the tar,
cheerfully sacrificing them to the ur-
gent needs Of commerce.
Learning that chalk lines drawn on
the floor would keep the ants away.
the acid in the chalk being too strong
for the sensitive ant nose, a man once
drew a thick line around a party OF
ants that was foraging across his
kitchen floor. He kept them several
days, as none would cross the line.
Finally, feeling sorry for them, he
chopped up some fine grass and drop
ped it in the circle, that they might
eat and keep them from starving.
Eat? Not they. They simply seized
the bits of grass, bore them, piece by
piece to the chalk line, built pyramid
and when 1t was high enough. pushed
1t over the line, thus making a green
bridge over which the prisoners tri-
umphantly passed.

I shall give you no peace till you do"
Then she ran and drew the curtains
across the windows and arranged the
night lamp. II must say no more to
you tonight dear, because you are tired
and homesick and out Of spirits.
My room Is next to yours. Maud Lof-
tus liked to be near me even when

Esther grew rigid from head to foot.
What name Is that?" she gasped.
"Of whom are you talking?"

mentioned just now," answered Mig
non; Maud LOTUS, my dearest
friend. She spent several weeks at
Rookwood after we graduated togeth-

Esther cast wild, hunted look
around the chamber.
What! she has been here-here?
And he-her lover She paused as

Il have never met Mr.. Fleetwood"
cried Mignon, in amazement. "Yes,
he is her lover-they have been engag-
ed since childhood. She Is to marry
him at Tamarack Hall. Dearest Es-
ther, is 1t possible that you know
Maud? No, that cannot be; but do not

once to bed. You can explain all this
some other time"
So here, in this strange, for-off Rook-
wood, her ghastly sin, her unspeakable
sorrow leaped up fresh before her. At
sound Of Fleetwood's name, her heart
seemed to stop beating. She stared at
Mignon, with a face like death.
"Oh, my hands," she screamed out,
suddenly. Look at my hands! They
are red-red with blood"
And, swaying helplessly backward,
Esther fell, senseless as stone, to the
floor of the chamber.

THE MARVEL. OF DIsTANCE.-The dis
tance to the nearest fixed star Is so
tremendous that, like many Of the facts
Of astronomy. 1t is beyond the grasp
of the human imagination, though not
beyond the reach Of mathematical
demonstration. Light, which travels
at a speed of $4,000 miles in single
second Of time, takes over four years
to reach us from the nearest star. The
thread spun by a spider is so excess
sively fine that pound Of 1t would be
long enough to reach around the earth.
1t would take ten pounds Of 1t to
reach to the moon and over 5000
pounds to stretch to the sun. But to
get a thread long enough to reach the
nearest star would require half a mil
lion tons. II a railroad could be built
to this star and the fare fixed at a
cent a mile the total cost of the Jour-
ney would be s25O.OOO, 100000, or more
than sixty times the whole amount Of
coined gold In the world.
