Early Automobiles.

During the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries. marking the ages when me-
chanical genius was Just awakening
there were attempts TO drive vehicles
other than by animal means. Indeed,
as early as 1859 there was curious
monocycle automobile built for En-
peror Macmillan Of Germany pro-
PEELED like a treadwheel by four men
treadingon the inside of a great rim and
steered by means of a handle connect
ed TO the axle held by man walking
beside it. The seat rested on the axle
and was balanced by weights to keep
it upright. There was another auto
mobile constructed that same year.
driven by crank. which was connect
ed with drive wheel A man walked
alongside and turned the crank By
means of a long handle. Two centu-
ries later there was an automobile con
structed at Nuremberg which travelled
about Germany that year and which
was driven by great springs wound up
at short ntervais.-Popuiar Mechanics.

TAFT,S MESSAGE.

Taft's message must be disappointing
to the masses 1t is lacking in the vigor
which characterized Roosevelt's pre-
sentiments to Congress. Perhaps this
tameness may be satisfactory to the
trusts and what is called the predatory
interests of the country. The con-
sumner and the wage Garner are III a
sense fgureheads who must pay tribute
to the combines and the infant indus
tries. !" President Taft is opposed to
tariff tinkering and to congressional in
quiry into the sugar scandals. Congress
is advised to not interfere with the
Sugar Trust thieves who have plum
deredthe government, as they have set
tied in full, says the President, "for all
that it is shown" against them. In
other words the President in opposing
any immediate investigation of the New
York custom house scandal, assumes
that such investigation might "by Civ
ing immunity and otherwise, prove an
embarrassment in securing convictions
of the guilty parties.
Among his recommendations are a
ship subsidy to encourage American
shipping, publicity of political conrti-
buttons in elections of members OF
Congress, civil pensions, higher rate
of postage on periodicals and maya
zines, fund of $4,000 to aid in sup
pressing the white slave" trade, a COM
mission to evolve ap Ian to expedite
legal procedure and mitigate the laws

RAISING HOGS
The Experience of a DeSoto Farmer,
Mr. NJ NJ. Bowling.

Mansfield Enterprise: Mr.. NJ M.
Bowling of G1oster was in Our town a
few days since, and he informs us that
he is ready to ship another carload of
hogs within short time. He finds it
to his advantage to ship all the larger
hogs to the packing house at Fort
Worth, and all those of lighter weight
to New Orleans, where they are sold to
the butchers. As an instance of the
profit in fattening hogs on peanuts, he
tells us that recently he purchased lot
of hogs for which he paid 500, and af-
ter letting them feed in the peanut field
for 20 days. he sold them at profit of
over 100 per cent A combination of
peanuts and hogs are equal to gold
mine in this country, and it would be
well if more of our people would go
into the experiment extensively.

ities-the lasting qusiities-of woman
hood
Beauty Is rare.
And 1t may cover a multitude of fail
ings. The handsome woman may have
great poverty of spirit, scornful dis
position or a cold heart. She may lack
the essence Of real charm and fail to
give promise OF happy cOmradeship In
marriage.
Men know this.
Rare exceptions aside, you may de-
pend upon il that the man who falls
in love with a pretty woman loves her
for something more than her beauty.
Admiration is not love.
Mere fascination does not last.
If you are loved by true mau-and
DO other is worth whiIe-it is because
IF the things that abide-true woman"
liuess. nobeness of mind. helpfulneSs
of spirit. tenderness, sympathy.
That is what men want.
Never mind about your plainness
Some good man will come to Know
you for your true self, and If be finds
In yon sweetness soul. beauty OF
spirit. he will idealize those plain fea-
lures of yours into thing of beauty
which shall be joy forever.
Yes, men like beauty.
But they care more for chars of
soul, congenial ways The girl who is
good and winsome has great advan-
tage over the mere beauty who may
be vain or frivolous ca cold and self
ish.
Make yourself attractive, but
Above all things, cultivate a sweet
spirit Show appreciation of others.
Be gracious. And some day your lover
will seek and win you and find prize.

The course the President will take in
the matter of appointing colored men
is likely to be illustrated in the selec-
ton of a successor of w. T. Vernon,
registrar of the treasury. Booker T.
Washington and other colored leaders
have given their support to ]. c. Napier
of Nashville for the place, but it ap-
pears the President will probably select
colored man from the North.
