in the state of Mississippi. At Vicks-
burg, McComb and other centres of
railroad work, full forces are being
installed, and men laid off have been
taken back. All these are indications
of a very healthful and gratifying con-
dition. Railroad work is an infallible
barometer of the industrial life of a
commonwealth, and Mississippi need
offer no more convincing argument
to prove her sound and prosperous
condition than this. 1t is also strong
proof of the establishment of railroad
confidence, circumstance which is
no doubt attributable in a great meas
ure to the abandonment of the mar
row minded project to fix flat two
cent passenger rate. 1t is not in Mis-
sippi alone that this renewed activi-
ty in railroad circles is apparent. The
renaissance is shared, in a greater or
less degree, by the whole country, and
| is an actual proof of the wearing
away and disappearing of the effects
of the causeless panic which for the
past two years has exerted so injur-
ious an influence on all lines of bust
ness 1t is gratifying to note that in
the revival in the South, Mississippi
leads This, however, is role to
which the state is not unaccustomed
and it will be generally acknowledged
that in such movements it always
leads in the right direction.

A shrewd Doctor.

This incident" said doctor, "hap-
pened In France two or three centu-
ries ago, in the days when public
criers were always in evidence. There
was a physician of Montpelier who
used to go from place to place to prac-
tice the healing art He employed a
very ingenious trick to help him on
his way When he came to a town
where he was not known he pretended
to have lost his dog, which he de-
clared was very valuable animal,
and ordered the public crier to roam
about, beat loud on his drum and offer
a reward of % louis to whoever should
bring the dog to him. At the same
time the crler was directed to mention
all the titles and academic honors Of
the doctor as well as his place of resi-
dence. OF course 1t happened that the
doctor was not long in becoming al
most the sole topic Of talk In the town.
The people made up their minds that
he must be a famous physician as
well as a very rich one, as he could of
fer % louis for finding his dog. You
might reasonably judge that the dog
was never found, but plenty of pa
tients were"

Winning a Juryman,

1t Is related of Lachaud, the most
famous Of French criminal lawyers in
the last century, that in pleading GER
tain case he perceived that one of the
jurors seemed to be hostile to him and
his argument
In the faces of all the other men In
the box he saw with his practlced eyes
that his oratOry or his shrewdness was
having It's effect, but this man, in spite
of all Lachaud could do, remained
frowning, suspicious, obdurate.
Lachaud continued with his work,
however and presently saw that his
opportunity had come. 1t was a hot
day, and a ray of sunlight had pene-
Itrated crevice on the curtain and was
shining on top of the head of this Jury
man. who was quite bald. The lawyer
paused In his argument and addressed
himself directly to the court.
IF your honor would please" he
said, ito order that the curtain In
yonder window be lowered II trife I
am sure that the sixth juryman would
appreciate IT,"
