THE BICNEss OF NEW YORK.

On the land of about 325 square miles
New York city handles half the foreign
commerce of the United States, manu-
features more products than the State
of Pennsylvania or illinois and finances
more than 6n per cent. of the entire
commerce of the country as measured
by bank clearings.
If the harbor of Boston had been
wiped from the commercial slate in the
winter of 1907 the loss in foreign com
merce due to the disaster would barely
have equaled the decline in New York; S
foreign commerce last year. The total
foreign traffic of Boston and Charles
town was s225. .S05. 900 in the fiscal year
1907. while the total decline in New
York's foreign traffic in the calendar
year was $225, ,866. .O0O.
The second biggest foreign commerce
of the nation is handled at Galveston.
1t is only $4,000. .Ooo bigger than the
decline in the commerce of New York
last year. The fluctuation in the busi-
ness of New York then is practically
equal to the entire tonnage of the next
biggest port in the country. World q

MYSTERIES OF THE TOILET.
Newport News Times-HcraldJ

Two of the lady writer's for the news
papers recently discussed simultaneously
the time that it takes woman to dress
We do not pretend to understand such
mysteries as are therein exploited, but
we find an expression in each writing
which has worried us no little.
One Of the writer's says "a mans
garments are cut and dried affairs. I"
10 be sure. But is that not true also
OF woman's garments? We mean
those which are formed with the scis-
sors and sent periodically to the wash
tub. 1t certainly does puzzle us.
The other writer quotes as follows
from "a charming woman: "Fifteen
minutes for the bath, ten minutes to
adjust corsets; fifteen minutes for face
massage and powder; ten minutes to
adjust the hat, and fifteen minutes, at
least, to arrange the hair
And Is that all? We do not know.
But We do know that the writer was
writing Of the time that it takes a wo-
man to dress and we have the distinct
impression that the above citation is
set down as complete toilet. Is that
some new tangled fashion that is
threatening us? The subject is quite
exciting.

BEES.

Bees are always facinating study.
The first book and nearly the best on
bees was written by blind man. who
saw the work of bees through other
eyes and wrote by other hands. and
the work of Huber is a classic in bee
literature.
A close study of bees shows that a
strong hive in February numbers about
l5,O 900, but by May they multiplied to
as many as $4,000. The average load
carried by bee to the hive from his
foraging tour is about three tenths of
a grain, so that bee has to make
nearly 23,O trips to get a pound of
honey. The average quantity collec-
ted by good hive in day would be
perhaps IL pounds, this taking the
work of 25o,OO0 bees, and the total
number of flowers visired by these in
.dustrious workers would be not less
than two and half millions.
Bees are extremely useful even if
the honey they collect is not counted as
of value. The visits they make to the
blossoms aid greatly in fertilizing the
fruit, and il there were no such visits
made we should have little or no fruit.
They carry from one blossom to anoth-
er the pollen and the fruit is fertilized
in this way.
The rather common theory that bees
injure fruit by biting it and suck
ing the juice is, we are assured, not
true. Bunches of grapes hung up in a
hive for days show no signs Of injury,
and those that were smeared with honey
were licked clean but not injured. OF
all the creatures man sets to work for
his own pleasure or profit the bee does
the most work for the least pay, as he
Tor it may be she) requires no feeding
and only workshop for the summer
and shelter for the winter. 1t pays
to keep bees Some people think they
are spiteful but this is an error. It is
seldom that bees get angry even, and
they mnst be greatly provoked to do
this.

Be yourself. Don't initiate some one
else.
Be as nice to women as you are to
men.
Be cordial to older men and women.
Be natural. Forget yourself.
Don't let one man monopolize you.
Look as though you were having q
good time, even if you are not.
Make every man feel that yoa appre-
eiate his courtesies. Don't gush over
them or over him.
Don't spend your time in corners with
man. Stay out in the open.
Never fail to pay all your calls.
Let nothing prevent you from being

community, and everything else that
tends to make life in the country eff
cient- And this, in turn, affects the
people In the cities who live on the coun-
try products. 1t is a task-the main
tainance of good roads-which effects
every person in the country no matter
where he lives or what his profession.
1t Is essential that the methods which
are adopted for obtaining road revenues
shall so distribute the burden that ali
parties and interests benefited shall
contribute in proportion to their means
and the advantages to be obtained.
This will necessitate q general revision
OF the road laws ESQ as to provide for
state appropriations to supplement
county funds and an adjustment of tax
alton so that the cities and the great
corporations win bear considerable
portion of the cost.
From time immemorial, localization
has proven totally inadequate policy
In administration of public roads. The
interests of most Of the counties are too
small and the available revenues too
meagre to admit of the continuous en-
ployment of skilled engineers and road
builders to direct this kind of internal
Improvement. On the other hand, a
Capitalization of authority and super
vision in state official is feasible and
economical because the state can, for
the benefit of all the counties, main
tain corps of competent highway en-
gineers who will systematize and prop
eriy direct the work in each county, the
total cost of this state department be-
ing so widely distributed as to rest but
lightly upon the individual counties.
Capitalization must, therefore, be a
dominant factor in solving our road
problems.

LEADERS OF MEN.

When they are dead, we heap the laurels
high
Above them, where Indifferent they lie:
We join their deeds to unacIustomed
praise,
And crown with garlands of immortal
bays,
Whom, living, we but thought to cruelty.
AS mountains seem less glorious. viewed
too high,
80 often do the great whom we decry
Gigantic loom to our astonished gaze.
When they are dead.
For, shamed by largeness, ittlenesses
die;
And, partisan and narrow hates put by.
we shrine our heroes for the future
days,
And to atone our ignorant DELAYS
With fond and emulous devotion try.

LITTLE THINGS OF LIFE.

1t is the little things of life
That oft bestow the sweetest pleasure:
Amid the surge and roar of strife,
The soul seeks something dear to
treasure.
In unthought ways the rude remark
Stings like wasp and leaves feeling,
Oft shoulders in a secret spark,
Then turns a blister slow in healing,
The hasty thrust or gruff reply
Reveals shallow rift of folly,
Wrings from the heart lonely sigh.
That starts food of melancholy.
A gentle tone and friendly smile,
When given with good faith intending.
Will cheer with hope long after while
Thepath which all are quickly vending.
Full many hearts have sorely pined,
Lives deeply grieved and fond ties
broken;
A naughty word oft wounds the mind.
That may as well have been unspok en-.

OF THOSE WHO WALK ALONE.

Women there are on earth, most sweet
and high,
Who lose their own, and walk bereft
and lonely,
Loving that one lost heart until they die,
Loving it only.
And so they never see beside them grow
Children, whose coming is like breath
of flowers;
Consoled by subtler loves the angels
know,
Through childless hours.
Good deeds they do; they comfort and
they bless
In duties others put off till the NOR
row;
Their look is balm. their touch Is ten
6erness
To all in sorrow.
Betimes the world smiles at them, as
It were shame,
This maiden guise, long after youth s
departed;
But in Gods book they bear another
name
1.-The faithful hearted"
Faithful in life. and faithful unto death,
Such souls. in sooth, illume with luster

That glimpsed, glad land wherein the
vision saith
Earth's wrongs are ended.
