Mark Twain's Advice to Young Lady
Graduates.

A year or so ago when Mark Twain
was crossing the Atlantic he made
the acquaintance of a young woman
who was a pupil of ST. Timothy's
school at Catonsville, Nd, n suburb
OF Baltimore. and promised her that
he would attend the commencement
at her school when she graduated.
Last week Mark made his word good
and following is the advice which he
gave the graduating class:
''There is nothing for me to do but
to tell you young ladies what not to
do. There are three things that you
should never do on any occasion:
"First-Don't smoke-that is, not
to excess IaK 73 and have always
smoked during my seventy-three
years to excess.
"Second-Don't drink-that is, to
excess.
"Third-Don't marry-that is, to
excess.
"Now, if you young ladies refrain
from all these things you will have
all the virtue that any one will honor
and respect.
Another thing 1 want to say, and
that is that honesty is the best policy.
81 remember when had Just writ
ten 'Innocents Abroad, when ] and
my partner wanted to start a news
paper syndicate. We needed $3 and
did not know where to get it. While
we were in a quandary l espied n
valuable dog on the street. | picked
up the canine and sold him to Il man
for $3. Afterward the owner of the
dog came along and l got $3 from
him for telling him where the dog
was. So l went back and gave the
$3 to the man whom | sold it to. and
l have lived honestly ever since"
Ii anybody else except Mark Twain.
or some other celebrity, had talked
that way at agraduating commence
ment of a young ladies institution,
he would have been criticised and de-
nounced as a acheat-especially il they
had paid his expenses there (they
would not have cared whether he got
back home or not.) But es Mark
Twain said it. it was all right. 1t
was excruciatingly funny ifit was not
smart. And when a thing is funny
and causes people to laugh they enjoy
it and are satisfied. The lesson taught
is to be good natured, to look on
the bright side of life and as far in us
lies to spread sunshine and laughter
as we pass along the way.

Charlotte Papers on the Biggers
Verdict.
Statesville Landmark.

Statesville Landmark.
1t is gratifying to note that the
Charlotte papers are speaking out
against the verdict in the 5iyyers
case-the acquittal of W. s. Biggers,
on the ground of insanity, for the
willful and premeditated staying off.
G. Hood. The qualification
in the matter of the Charlotte papers
is the fact that they have the nerve
to speak out against what they be-
lieve is miscarriage of justice. The
Observer OF Sunday, the day after
the verdict was rendered, said:
Human life, quite cheap enough al
ready, must become much cheaper il
worked-up and perhaps half-feigned
responsibility or hysteria is made a
ground OF acquittal for crime. Self
control is certainly placed at an
enormous discount in human rela-
tions. The conscience and sober
sense of this community have been
shocked by a verdict rendered in
the Mecklenburg Superior Court yes
terday
Expressing the opinion that Big
gers was sane at the time OF the
shooting, the News says:
The danger in such verdicts as that
rendered in the Biggers trial is the pre-
cedent established. Has it come to that
pitiable pass in the administration OF
justice when e murderer, his hands reek-
ing with the blood of his fellowman, is
to 5e allowed to go scot free of punish
ment if he is able to prove that at some
time prior to, or the moment when he
he committed the crime he was mentally
unbalanced for a brief period? Just
| where we are to draw the dividing
line? Just where will the courts be able
to stop at this rate? Is it safe
to turn loose q man upon society who
has established his ability to fly into a
fit OF insanity?
Whenever the newspapers begin to
! denounce the prevalent and con
stantly increasing custom OF freeing
men who commit murder, We shall
have hope that change will begin
and that justice may triumph in the
end. Especially is there hope, as in the
Charlotte case, when the newspapers
have the courage to condemn wrong
in their own homes. Speed the day
when the press shall speak as one
man, in thunder tones, against the
murder lust which is a broad and
practically unrestrained.

Yhe Difference in Sewing Machines

git is mistaken idea that sewing machines
are pretty much alike, when as a matter
of tact there is a vast difference
q There is but one machine that sews better
than any other-and that one is the Singer.
q This is because the Singer idea is d;s-
fincfiOe-every year shows Improvement
in that idea.
q This is because the Singer factories are not
only equipped with tools and machinery
better calculated to make good sewing ma
chimes than any other, but this equipment
is unique and not to be found elsewhere.
q This is because half century has been
devoted to training and specializing men,
each to do one thing best in sewing machine
construction. The Singers superiority
its lifetime-lasting value-does not appear
on the surface.
g One machine does sew better than any
other-and that one is the Singer.
