The only way to become an expert
at lovemaking is to practice. This
was the information handed out to a
handful of hearers by the Hindu phil.
osopher, Sakharam Ganesh Pandit, in
lecture on The Science of Love.
Love is a divine discomfort" said
the philosopher, "and If you want to
arouse love in others it can be done
only by giving them love. How to
develop the emotion of love in another,
is the great question of today-the art
of making love. 1t needs great deal
of study and a great deal of prac-
tice."

STOKES COUNTY'S FINE MULES.

he the home of the finest mules OF any

No Eulogy for Tillman.
Wilmington Star.

hlIuiDS lOH
Senator Tillman at deaths door,
we look for q recurrence, III case he
dies. of that most human habit OF
praise too long deferred. 1t would be
a pity if, on the taking away OF SO
strong man, there should happen
that sort OF "slopping over which
would never have been attempted
had he lived.
Tillman takes high place in the
crowd of peculiar men who have left
impression on the world. He came
into prominence uncouth, despIsed,
but invincible For years he has car
ried a State that professed to hate
him at heel like a dog. In the Senate
he was laughed at, lampooned, at
tackled, ostracised. He lived down,
or beat down, the preiudices militia
ting against him, without ever for a
moment himself yielding iot or little
ofhis creed. The country has laughed
at Tillman, because his was not a ma
ture to seek admiration. He was
strength-brutal, coarse, but honest.
He hammered, and hammered, and
learned. Today there is not Spna-
tor more respected; not man whose
taking from public life will leave a
greater void, or one harder to fill.
At the same time, it is to be hoped
that there will be no opanegyrics. Till
man was fighter. Like fighter, he
was careful neither of manners nor
weapons. Should he die, there ought
to be no occasion on thepart of those
who have villifipd to canOniZe him.
He was rugged, sharp, unmerciful
and unforgiving. In such qualities,
displayed with courage that never
cried for quarter, there is room for
all decent memorial without the aid
of eulogy against a man who, being
dead. cannot make retOrt.
