Teaching the Cutpurses.

Stow In his account of London be-
tween 1860 and 1870 depicts an inn
kept by kind Of Fagin of the time OF
Queen Elizabeth: "One WottOn kept
an alehOuse near Billingsgate.
and In the same house he procured all
the cutpurses about the city to repair
There was school set up to learn
young boys to cut purses. Two de-
vices were hung up The one was a
pocket. the other was "A purse. The
pocket had in 1t certain counters and
was hung about with hawks bells.
and over the top did hang little scar

THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER

Stand by your town newspaper.
If there is anything in your town
worth talking about, ten chances to
one your little town paper had a
nand in putting it there; and II
there exists and unsightly or UNI
savory nuisance, twenty chances to
one it will stay there until your
town editor sees it or smells it, and
wipes his pen on the town board S
breeches. If anybody beyond the
walls of your little burg ever learns
that there's such place as Peace
vile it will be through your town
oracle that is printed upstairs over
the drug store.
Every village gets its moneys
worth in the village newspaper, It's
the wagon that carries all your
good things to market. 1t ought
to be kept in good repair, In many
cases it would pay to grease 1t,
clean it, paint it, keep its running
gear IN shape, anu Shei'er ~ "' ''i'
public's expense.
Stand by your town newspaper:
It's the guardian and defender of
every interest, the forerunner and
pioneer of every advance move
ment, and the sturdy advocate OF
law and order. Take the news
paper away and it would not be SIX
months before the town would look
as if it had been doped. Business
would drag, society would yawn,
and grass would grow between the
cobbles.
Long live the town newspaper!
and the editor -
He's man of the type, and the
type of man,
Always and ever a gentleman;
In the town where he lives he's
a wonderful leaven--
Peace to his ashes, may his soul
rest in heaven.

Virginia State Fair.

Next week, the first week in De-
tober, is the biggest week of the
year in all Virginia at the State
Fair in Richmond, which opens
Monday, October Bird, and coutin-
ucs through the week, day and
night, with a continuous succession
of interesting events.
This is the fifth annual exhibit
ton of the Virginia State Fair AS
ISOLATION, and the program is the
most elaborate ever presented.
With this fair will open the mag
niIicent new $4,000 exposition
building, an imposing structure of
brick, steel and concrete, with a
clear floor space of two acres, an
edifice which typifes the perma-
nence and importance of this great
annual fair, which is primarily de-
voted to the exposition of the
wealth of Virginia farm products.
From the hagpoles surmounting
this immense building will fly the
State flags of the various States Of
the Union, loaned by their govern
ors, as q tribute to the Importance
of this grand annual farm festival
of the Mother State.
Thursday, October 9th, will be
Farmers Day at the Fair, and a
special program has been arranged
for the enters ainmcnt of the many
thousands of farmers and theirfam-
lies, who will come to Richmond
on that day from all parts of Vir-
ginia and from neighboring States.
This is the farmers fair for all Vir
ginia, and the exhibit of farm prod
ucts, which has an entire building
to itself, is a central attraction,
with a grand exhibition of the best
of everything that grows in the Old
Dominion, an exhibition of inesti-
mable value as an educational fac
tor and a magnificent demonstra-
ton of Virginia progress in agrlcul-
ture and horticulture.
The liberality of the fair manage
ment in offering $4,000 in cash
premiums and purses has brought a
record number of entries in all de-
partments of the Fair. Every inch
of exhibition space in the building
devoted to woman's work is taken.
The poultry show has $500 entries,
besides pigeons and pet stock. The
competition for the King Corn Spe.
cial of 81 500 cash premiums, has
brought a big list of entries from all
over the State, and the tobacco en-
tries, which have been extended to

of the crop, will bring the best sam

premiums.
The live stock exhibit is the larg-
est ever given in the East, and the
Judging. Of the live stock in a grand
exhibition ring, with free seats
for 5000 spectators, is a
feature original with the Fair, which
will be especially attractive to
breeders. This exhibition will un-
doubtedly give stimulus to the
breeding industry in the Old Do
minion.

Romanoe Of Samuel T, B. Morse.

Romance of Samuel r. B. Morse.
The story of Samuel Finley Breese
Morse, born fifteen years after the bat
tie of Bunker Hill. is one Of the thrill
ing romances Of American biography.
On Main street. Charlestown, at the
very foot of Breeds hill, found the
birthplace Of the great discoverer who
fulfilled the almost prophetic utterance
of Shakespeare when he spoke of Puck
as "girGling the earth in forty min
utes." He fought battles and won vic
tories that were just as important as
those of any general or admiral on
land or sea. He has practically con-
quered time and distance. He began
his career, strange to say, as all artist
and amid his struggles and hardSIlipS
learned that courage and energy would
do more than anything else in this
world. whether in art or in the pursuit
of some abstruse problem in science.
Enemies could not dismay him. and
inch by inch he fought his way until
he won the victory that was flashed
out to the world across telegraph
wires.- National Magazine.

Blamed the Architect.

An architect who had business at the
criminal courts building saw an old
private pupil Of his on trial for bur-
glary. He waited around until the man
was convicted: then he spoke to him.
How did you happen to go to the
dogs, Jim?" he said. 81 expected bet
ter things from man who pegged
away at architecture as earnestly as
you did"

Hookworm War Is Being Pushed

Richmond, Va, Sept. %, 1910.
Especial } The campaign against
hookworm disease in Southamp-
ton County is proceeding with great
success. Reports received at the
State Health Department from the
County indicate that great interest
is being taken in the work by the
physicians and the people, and that
Southampton County will soon rid
itself CT the infection.
When the survey of Southamp-
ton was begun by the officers OF
the State Health Department, the
County was found to be very SER
iously infected. The disease had
evidently existed in the County for
years and a large proportion OF the
people were suffering from the mild
or severe form of the disease.
A vigorous campaign was at once
undertaken and field inspectors
were at once sent to the County.
The work of these inspectors was
enthusiastically received by the cit
liens of the County who aided in
every possible way in the work,
and the last report shows that more
than one thousand persons who
were found suffering from the dis
ease have already been treated, and
the complete eradication of the dis
ease from the County is not far dis
tant.
1.-THE most encouraging feature
of the work in Southampton" said
the State Health Commissioner, in
discussing the matter today, lis
the readiness with which the people
have taken preventive measures.
Our inspectors have told them that
while they may be temporarily cur
ed of the disease, they are never
safe until soil pollution is stopped.
Accordingly, hundreds of families
have made new sanitary arrange
ments and have put an end to con-
ditions which have made the Grad
ication of hookworm impossible.
They have taken the only passible
way of Kidding themselves of this
trouble and will certainly reap the
benefits of their foresight"

The Odd Minutes,

It is really wonderful how much can
be gained by improving odds and ends
Of time in keen analytical observing,
thinking, reading, studying. Think Of
the untold wealth locked up in the
spare moments and long winter even
ings of every life. 1t is possible to
pick up an education In the odds and
ends of time which most people throw
away. If thDSe who have been depriy-
ed of a college education would only
make up their minds to get substi-
tute for it they would b. amazed to
see what even the evenings of few
weeks devoted conscientiously to the
college studies would accomplish.
When a noted literary man was asked
how he managed to accomplish so
much with so little friction or apparent
effort he replied, "By organizing my
time-to every hour its appointed
task or duty, with no overlapping or
infringements." There is great deal
of time wasted, even in the busiest
lives, which, if properly organized.
might be used to advantage.-Success
