REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
Probably the Best Way to Remedy
the Nuisance Would Be To Com
menCe With the Parents.

That's what makes me remain a
bachelor, said man seated at a ia BILE
in popular restaurant. THAT young
ster has kept those two women and the
man busy attending to his wants, and
the little c@atter-box has been running
the whole conversation to suit himself.
It used to be a proverb that little
now the little boy is seen, heard and
felt and always to the annoyance of
everyone but his proud parents.
There's nothing in the world I like bet
ter than a well behaved child, but that
species is fast disappearing and in its
stead we find the precocious little imp
aged or 5, the terror OF visitors.
much as I detest such children, 1
cannot forget that it is not altogether
their fault. They have never been
taught better, they have been allowed
to grow up without vestige of paren-
tai control; ilI-reared, ,ill-mannered and
willful to the last degree. Parents
seem to forget that their children are
reflections of themselves, with this diff
ference that the parents are a BILE to hide
their bad manners In public but the
children are sure to show theirs. Pro-
badly the best way to remedy the nuis-
ance would be to commence with the
parents and give them few lessons in
the art of rearing children SO that they
won't be the bane OF life to men like
men. ~

FARMERS INSTITUTE
To Be Held in Wayne county at Pow.
ellis Springs, August 18th, and
at Woodland, August 18th.
Institute for Women.

The annual Farmers Institute for
Wayne county will be held at Powel1s
Springs, Monday, August 18th, and at
woodland, Tuesday, August 18th, 1907.
There will be two or three speakers
present from the State Department of
Agriculture in addition to the local
speakers.
These Institutes are for a free and in
formal discussion of every day farm
problems, and no farmer can attend
and take part in these discussions
without receiving more than enough
benefit to pay for the time spent,
No attempt will be made at this meet
ing to lay down hard and fast rules by
which any man should run his farm,
but improved farming methods will be
discussed and the reasons why these
methods are better than many of those
now practiced will be given. We are
assured that no speaker will recon-
mend anything he has not himself
done and that dozens of farmers in this
part of the State are not also doing at
this time.
Do not forget the date Of this meet
ing, Powell's Springs, Monday. August
18th; Woodland, Tuesday, August 18th,
1907, and see that your neighbors know
of it and attend.
In connection with the regular an
nual Farmers Institute, for Wayne
county, to be held at the above named
places, there will also be held meet
ing for the women from the farms.
One Or two women speakers will be
% resent from the State Department. OF
Agriculture and these will be assisted
blythe men conducting the mems in
stitute. AS this meeting will be held
on the same day and at the same place
as the Farmers Institute, joint meet
ing of the men and women may be ar
ranged for the afternoon.
The women have even greater and
more perplexing problems in the homes
than the men have on the farms. Why
should they not come together and dis
cuss these problems and get inspira-
ton and help in solving them?
We have heard of no woman attend
ing such an institute who did not be-
come interested.

when see the deserted shrines of
your forefathers," Count Tolstol is re-
ported as saying to visitor to whom
he predicted the downfall of the United
States, II think it will come more
swiftly than the fall of Rome.''
Perhaps it is unnecessary to point
out o Count Tolstoi that one great diff
ference between Rome before it's fall
and the United States of today is that
Rome had been cursed with seMraI
crazy Caesars, notably Caligula and
Nero, together with an ignorant and
violent populace. This combination
accelerated the destruction OF the en-
pire.
In the case of the United States the
populace consists of some ninety mil
lions Of sovereigns, mostly sane, most
ly right sooner or later in their politi-
cal judgments, and representing the
highest average the world ever knew of
conservative thought, intellectual
energy and patriotic obedience to law.
