It is evident that the practical
farmers Of the South have wax
ed up to the need for deeper
blowing, and that Professor Wei
born is getting left badly. Last
summer / saw in one place in
North Carolina where the great
flood had taken all the plowed
soil bodily from a hillside, and
left the hard clay showing the
ridges of the last blowing. Now
| am sure that if that hard clay
had been broken into deeply with
2 5ubs0iler, even that flood would
not have carried off the soil. The
greatest need for deep loosening
Of the red hills Of the South is
fof this very prevention Of wash
ing, which terraces are unable to
check with the shallow blowing
that leaves the hard clay IN
broken, merely furnishing a slide
for the loose soil to slip down
over. But as one of our readers
has said the fall and early winter
IS The time to do this, for a sub

THIS Is MY AZ TIL BIRTHDAY.
John Wesley Gaines.

John Wesley Gaines, striking fig
ure in the national house of represen-
tatives for the past twelve years. was
born in Davidson county Tennessee
August "a, 1861. He was educated in
the public schools and become a school
master. He was graduated from Van
derbilt university as a doctor of medi-
cine, but never practiced as a physi-
clan. Instead he took up the study of
law and began the practice of that pro-
fession in Nashville. He became inter
ested in politics and in 1892 was a
presidential elector on the Cleveland
ticket. In 1897 he was elected to con-
gress on the democratic ticket in the
sixth district of Tennessee. From the
first he attracted attention on account
of his proneness to speak on questions
before the house and his invariable
radicalism on all public questions. He
was. regularly reelected to congress
until the present year, when he was
defeated in the primaries by Joseph
W Byrnes. a Nashville lawyer

The French laundries at San Fran

have promised to support the Anti
Japanese League morally and finan-
cially.
1t is estimated that there are S4,1O0
men idle at present in the building
trades of New York City. OF the 1907
900 skilled mechanics in that city 49,
600 are still idle. Labor leaders are

Popular Ballad.
This is the smile age.
1t is the new dispensation-the dis
pensation of optimism.
Take look at the portraits of our
statesmen of the past. They are near
iy all of one type-stern of feature.
square cut as to mouth, dignifed' as to
pose. You will scarcely find the glim-
mer of smile on their faces.
1t is different nowadays.
Smile pictures are popular.
Note the pictures of Theodore Roose-
welt. His well known yisage is all
broken up and mellowed with smiles.
The picture shows either the good ma
tured grin or the teeth, revealing
spread of face The bulldog counte-
nance of the president is broken into
ripples like pond into which q stone
has been cast
And the face of William ]. Bryan in
picture! He is a smiler of the most
expansive width-a width as broad as
his countenance is wide. 1t is a CON
tagious smile and is characteristic of
the man.
1t is significant that Mr.. Taft is called
"Smiliag Bilr' and his running mate
Sunny Jim"
We are nation of smilers. The
frowners are of the unique minority.
The surly boor is in hard lines in
these days. We are learning that to
look at the world through smiling eyes
not only Sweetens life and brings sat
isfaction, but that it pays.
1t pays to smile. 1t pays in health,
in spirits, in absence of friction. 1t
pays in lives made brighter
Therefore hold up your chin and
smile
Don't be stingy in stretching your
mouth. If you play miser that way
you cheat only yourself.
1t is difficult to appraise a smile at
its highest 1t is an intangible thing.
So is the light an intangible thing
but it lightens a world So is heat
but it warns the world So is love
but it redeems the world.
A home without a smile is no home.
Smiles are as necessary in a house as
sunshine or air or warmth They cost
nothing. They are worth everything.
Smilei
Start the smile down in your dia-
phragm and let it creep up into the cor
ners of that dropping mouth and wrig-
gle up into the corners Of those luster-
less eyes. Smile! 1t pays.
