KITTY WANTED TO BE ALONE.
Story We'll Illustrates the Workings of
 the Childish Mind

When little Catherine first began to lisp she was suitably instructed by her mother in religion. The omnipresence and the omniscience of God were ex- plained to her in words of primer length. All this religious training evi- dently impressed her profoundly, but she kept her meditations to herself until the other evening.
 The four-year-old had been tucked into bed after saying her prayers, and as her mother stopped to kiss her good night the child asked eagerly:
 'Is mamma going downstairs now?'
 Yes, dear"
 An is God going to stay in dis room?''
 Yes. yes, dear
 Well, Cath'in wants mamma to tell God to go downstairs. too, cause she wants to wear dat pretty dress tomor- row--de one dat's on de chair-an' If God sits down in dat chair he'll muss dat dress all up An God can see de candy in de drawer dat I'm saving to eat in de morning, an he might eat it all up in de night if he feels hungry.

Pat had had trouble with his eyes, and a friend having advised him to consult an oculist, he went few days ago to see Dr. W, a distinguished specialist. for relief On his arrival at the doctors office he found the usual large number of patients in the ante room awaiting attention, and though he was in a great hurry he was forced to wait several dreary hours before his turn cane. He lost and regained his temper several times in the interim, but when all was over and he found himself out upon the street with the half day spent indignation over the loss of valuable time was the predoni- nant note in his feelings

PORK PRODUCTION IN SOUTH.

When we refer to pork as an ar ticle of diet on Southern tables. we speak of a meat which is more generally eaten and, in total con sumption in pounds, greater than all other meats combined. Figure the annual number of pounds O beef, mutton, kid and all other meats eaten by Southern people and compare the total with that of hog meat consumed annually in the South and we find pork far in the lead. A large number of our population rarely enjoys any change of diet from that of pork. hence we find the hog as staple and essential to Our living as wheat or corn. In 1890 90 per cent. O. the pork consumed in the South Atlantic and Gulf States was furn- ished by the great packing houses of the West. Since 1890 our peo- pie have, however, shown an in- creasing interest in hog raising and the shipments from the West are being gradually reduced. Thous- ands of our farmers are recogniz- ing the importance of raising enough pork for family consump- ton, while others are growing hogs for market. The census of 1900 showed a wide difference on this question over that of 1890. The showing is a commendable one for the South. and in line with those progressive method which are be- coming so necessary on Southern farms. The day upon which the South becomes an exporter of the products of resources, rather than importer of such as may be here produced, agriculture will take on a new life and prosperity on the farm be more general.
