IN DEAR OLD VIRGINIA.

Or. L. Mays. In T. p. A. Magazine)
Old folks get the oldest in Virginia,
Springs are the coolest in Virginia,
The sky is the bluest, woman the truest,
And rascals the fewest, in Virginia.
Chickens crow the loudest in Virginia,
People are the proudest in Virginia,
The streams are the clearest, the stars
seem the nearest
And the girls the dearest, in old Virginia.
Horses are the fastest in Virginia,
Taxes are lightest, the moon shines the
brightest,
And the peoples troubles the hghtest in
Virginia.
People take things the easiest in Virginia.
Corn dodgers the greasiest in Virginia,
The eye IS the quickest, politicians the
And whiskey makes you the sickest in
Virginia.
The roses are the reddest in Virginia,
People die the deadest, children are the
happiest,
Negroes heads the nappiest,
And sorghum is the sappiest, in Virginia.
The day'sneverquite so long in Virginia,
There's no land so fair as Virginia,
So full of joy. SO free from care, asin Vir-
ginia.
And | believe that land the Lord prepared
for mortal man,
is built exactly on this plan, of our dear
old Virginia land,
And when the time has come to die,
just take me back and let me lie,
Close where the old majestic James
goes rolling by,
In dear old Virginia.

these things are recalled to mind in
order to bring out more clearly by con-
trast the very different position in
which Mr.. Bryan finds himself this
year. His party will be more harmon
ious than in any previous political year
since he has been identified with it.
He has made steady growth in acquain-
tance and in popular good will by virtue
OF the exercise of two professions
which he has now for good while past
been carrying on. His chief work has
been that of platform lecturer, in
which capacity he has been almost
everywhere in the country speaking to
large audiences often upon subjects not
of a controversial sort, and by his
eloquence and tact dispelling that strong
prejudice against him that had survived
from the bitter fight against free silver.
His other calling is that of an editor
and writer, and his weekly paper has kept
him IN touch with large numbers of his
political followers. He is ten times as
widely acquainted with men in all walks
Of life as any other member of the
Democratic party. He Is more In de-
msnd as a speaker than ever before,
and his readiness and skill as an orator
have greatly increased. Review of
Reviews.

WRITERS OF HISTORY.

Writers who dress up history with
the aid of imagination may study with
profit the plain, almost bald, narrations
Of the Scriptures. The desire to
"adorn q tale" often leads into what is
really false. The very finely told story
Of the ringing of the bells at the pro-
mitigation of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence is 9 very stirring legend, but
as a matter Of fact no such ringing
occurred, and the famous Declaration
was not made public for week after
its adoption by the Convention.
This writer some years ago published
story related to him by prominent
minister of Virginia--s story character
istic of the genius of Stonewall Jackson,
then a professor of the ". III. 1.
He vouched for the truth of the
narrative and it had all the sem.
blance of truth. Some time after
the writer received q letter from 9
gentleman of Kentucky, who stated
that he was obliged, in the interests OF
truth. to contradict the story, as he was
a cadet at Lexington and he was Ger.
tain no such affair happened. The ex-
act truth of history-who shall write

KEEP THE FAIRY STORIES.

Says the Washington Herald: "It
may seem trifiing thing 70 deprive
children Of their fairy tales, but it is
not. 1t is robbing them of an inher.
itance to which they have full right,
and a child who should arrive at maturity
without knowing Of the deeds of Jack
the Giant Killer, or of good Haroun
Alraschid, would be almost as pitiful a
spectacle as the South Sea islander who
has never heard of God.
Zone can hardly realize that such q
move can seriously be contemplated.
Rank iconoclssm could hardly further
go. Are We getting so wise. so virtuous,
that we cannot leave the youngsters
any Of the illusions that made youth Sc
beautiful? What, in heavens name,
can the educational Gradgrinds offer to
the souls of children in the place of the
delights they take away?"
And probably children have as much
right to Jack the Giant Killer" as
grown folk have to "Giant Dispair."

AT HIS MOTHERS GRAVE.

There is touching pathos in the case
of Harry Dodson, Of Wise County, Va. 4,
who was serving a term at the State
farm for house-breaking Only eighteen
years old and criminal for the first
time, nine months after sentence he
heard of the death of his old mother,
dying possibly of broken heart. The
boys conscience shifting him, the
recollection of the days he had spent in
the company of the mother, the lessons
taught him at her knee, and the love
for him-the mothers unfading, un-
failing love-these moved his heart.
He felt that he must stand at the grave
of the dead parent, must go weep for
her and for his own misdoings over the
sod where she lay, and so running away
from the convict farm he made his way
home. in the extreme Southwest of the
State, finding his old father still alive.
Together they went to the graveyard,
and no doubt there the boy made vows
he will keep to the end-vows of purity,
of cleanness of life, of manliness and
spiritual sanity. But there was one other
thing to be done. He had been SEN
fenced at the farm, and his father con-
cluded that the only right course was
to go back. surrender himself to the
authorities and serve out his term. No
more pathetic sight could be conceived
than. that of the erring and now repent
ant boy, with his aged father, return
ing to the farm. and quietly surren-
dering himself to the proper officials,
where he will remain unless par
doned. 1t is stated that the young
man has fine face. is a typical
mountaineer and speaks calmly and
with directness. He did not seem to
dread the completion of his term, APP
parently willing to undergo whatever
additional term there may be in store
for him after he had been back to his
home and>had chance to see the old
father and to visit the grave of his
mother.

MEMORY FREAKS.

A famous French actress lately for
got entirely her part in the play in
which she had acted hundreds of times.
Men who have repeated the Lord's
prayer from infancy have suddenly
failed to recall the familiar words.
Joseph Jefferson, who acted the part
Of Rip Van Winkle thousands of times
got so at last that he sometimes had to
call on the actor with him: what do
say next?" Still more obscure and
puzzling is the failure to recall a name
when one wants it, and remember il
when not thinking about that subject
Astili more puzzling thing is the fac
that one may forget what has beer
written by them and be entirely unabl,
to read the illegible manuscript, bu
on being reminded of the subjec
matter, read the paper without trouble
Queer things, these minds of ours.

THE WINNING ISSUE.

The platform on which Cleveland
carried New York twice was for tariff
reform; Illinois has been won once in
fifty years for Democracy, and the
tariff was the issue of the campaign;
New Jersey was carried by the Dem
ocrats eight times, each time on the
tariff issue; Indiana has gone Demo
cratic three times, each time the tariff
was the dominating question; Ohio and
Michigan swerved close to the Demo-
cratic side twice, in both elections the
tariff was the prominent question;
Wisconsin failed to give full support to
the Republican ticket once, and the
tariff was the cause of the detection.
Here are seven states in which, wher
the tariff was made the issue of the
campaign they either were carried ovel
into the Democratic camp, or else Re
publican detection was glaringly mani
fest.

ABOUT EATING.

Perhaps after all it is nearly the
greatest enjoyment of life, that OF eat
ing. The man who does not enjoy a
good dinner well cooked and served has
something the matter with him-he is
not normal. And it is a blessed ar
rangement of a kind Providence that
instead of the daily nourishment we
take being sort of drudgery, a task
undertaken because of a duty we
owe to ourselves, it has been made
a real and perhaps exquisite pleasure.
Like all pleasures it is one that is
constantly abused and perverted. We
eat too much as a rule. eat not only
too much but eat what is often no;
good for us. But there is no self.
denial that is so hard to practice, nc
task more trying than to deny our

selves. DIR. Alternately, the most en-
inent English physician of his day
said that linen digest and assimilate
one-third of the food they take, the
other two thirds they carry about at
their peril"
Some time ago professor Chittenden,
of Yale University, instituted series
of experiments. getting to join him
about 40 of the students, the corps of
experimenters reducing the daily allow
ance of food until at the end of six
months they were eating only one
third of the amount they started out
with. Only two of the experimenters
lost weight, and all professed that they
were in better health than when they
commenced. An Office holder in Wash
ington some time ago published his ex-
perience in reducing his diet, he then
living on $4.60 month, and was in
excellent health, taking daily walk of
Ia miles before breakfast. AS the
average cost of meals in Washington
is not less than fifty cents for the most
frugal diet, it is plain that he was
economizing.
There is still another view of the diet
question. When ones horse stops eat
ing we say of him, "he is off his feed, "
meaning that he is sick. So soon as
the animal is ailing he stops eating.
That's nature, but when a man feels
out of sorts he thinks he must go to
the table and brace up on food of some
sort, even if he does not take stimu-
liant to provoke appetite. In this his
horse seems to be wiser. This writer
knows lady whose practice is never
to eat until real hungry--c Graves food.
She is not far from forty and has never
had q sick day. Possibly the increase
in the use of sugar, about which there
is some dispute as to it's nutritive value,
may account for some of the Indigestion
so prevalent. In 1870 (and possibly
the poverty of the people at that period
had something to do with this enforced
abstinence) about 2S pounds of sugar
were consumed per capita by the
people of this country. now we take
over go pounds, and the English con-
sumo about 100 pounds annually.
To conclude. it is probable that if the
cranks who undertake 40 and 60 days
fasts for the improvement of their health
would instead cut down the daily ration
one half, health would more speedily
be recovered without the risk of fatal
results.

A variety of wheat under the name

as capable of yielding at the rate of
200 bushels to the acre under ordinary
soil conditions and even better under
extra conditions. 1t is stated that this
variety was found growing wild on the
eastern coast of Alaska, and claims of
the most extravagant nature are made
for it. The Agricultural Department
however, states that it is one of the
poorest wheats known for making -four,
it is never grown where the ordinary

CHAMELEON LIKE.

America Massey, a negress of Indian
apolis, Ind, is apparently undergoing
third change from white to black.
In 1884 she began to turn white, and
in two years the Transformation was
complete. By 1888 she was black again,
the return to her original color being
more rapid than the change from black
to white. Shortly after this she began
to change again, and soon became as
white as the whites by whom she was
surrounded. but early in the eos she
again turned dark
In 1896 she was becoming white very
rapidly, and the transf o m t o +
has remained till within the past few
days, when two dark spots appeared
on one side of her face and one on tn.
other side. She is growing dark again

>BRYAN's GROWING POWER.

Gradually the more conservative
leaders of the Democratic party. and
especially those of the Eastern States,
have come into cordial relations with
Mr.. Bryan; so that he is in a position
of favor and good standing that he did
not enjoy in the conventions of 1896,
1900 and 1904. In those conventions
the strain between the conservative and
the radical wings of the party was so
severe that much of the energy was
wasted in factional strife which should

TO TnYSELE.

A solemn proverb haunts my mind
With meaning deep and vast,
The mill will never grind again
With waters that are past.
Take the lesson to thyself,
Loving heart and true;
Golden years are passing by,
Life is ebbing too.
Learn to make the most of life,
Lose no happy day;
Time can never bring thee back
Chances swept away.
Leave no tender word unsaid,
Love while life shall last;
The mill will never grind again
With waters that are past.
