Bear Our Sorrows.

BY preference we would bear all
our sorrows alone, fight out all the
hardest fights of heart and soul where
no one can pity us, or, with any well
meant attempt at healing, poke their
fingers into our sorest place; like
Jacob, we would wrestle with God in
the darkness and solitude of our own
chamber. But when we are happy it
is different; something must be want
ing unless there is one near to us who
understands and ishappy, too.-Wom-

White Violets as Brides Flowers.

1t is a pretty idea for a bride to
use her name flower in her wedding
boquet. Lady Violet Brabazon has
decided to do this when she is mar

Lady Violet will have a boquet OF
white violets and the two unmarried
sisters of her fiance who will act as
bridesmaids, the Ladies Sybil and
Vera Grimston, will carry big punches
of parma violets. The flower in col

PORTO RICO.

The year has been one of prosper ity and progress in Porto Rico. Ger tain political changes are embodied in the bill ito provide a civil gov ernment for Porto Rico and one for other purposes" which passed the house of representatives on June I5. 1910. at the last session of congress and is now awaiting the action of the senate.
 The importance of those features of the bill relating to public health and sanitation cannot be over esti- mated.
 The removal of politics of the judi ciary by providing for the appoint ment of the municipal judges is ex- cellent and I recommend that a step further be taken by providing therein for the appointment of secretaries and marshals of these courts. I be- lieve that the provision in this bill for partially elective senate. the number of elective members being progressively increased, is unwlse.

A CLEVER WOMAN

Some women are born handsome, but through carelessness and mat tention grow plain and unattractive.
 The clever woman of today is the one who. though born into the world lacking natural beauty. has through keeping abreast of the times. and listening to the voice of reason. turned plainness into beauty
 Beautiful hair is more responsible for handsome women than any one factor. and for that reason every woman should use Parisian Sage, the greatest and quickest acting hair beautifier and rejuvenator in the world.
 It gives to dull. faded and lifeless hair a lustre and character that will.

l our congress for d very considerabl, increase in the number of compan, and field officers of the army. A bil was pending in the last session O congress for this purpose, and l earn estly hope, that in the interest of tn, proper development of a republican [ army, an army, small in the time oi peace. but possible of prompt and adequate enlargement in time of war shall become possible under the laws of the United States
 A bill, the strong argument for which can be based on ground simi- lar sto that of the increased officers bill. is the bill for an increase of six ty in the army engineers. The short ness of supply of such officers delays important river and harbOr work and important fertilization work earn estly recommend the passage of this bill. which passed the house at the last session, and is now pending in the senate.
 COMPLICATIONS.
 l have directed that the estimates for appropriation for the improve ment of coast defense in the United
  mum, while those for, the completion of the needed Qualifications at Corregi- dor in the Philippine Islands and at Pearl harbOr in the Hawaiian Islands. should be expedited as much as pOssi- ble. The proposition to make Olong- apo and Subig Bay the naval base for the Pacific was given up and it is to be treated merely as a supply sta tion. while the Qualifications in the Philippines are to be largely confined to Corregidor island and the adjacent islands which command entrance to Manila bay. and which are being rem dered impregnable. from land and sea attack The Pacific naval base has been transferred to Pearl Harbor in the Hawaiian islands. This neces- sitated the heavy fertilization of the harbor and the establishment of an important military station near Hon olulu. I urge that all the estimates made by the war department for these purposes be approved by congression- al appropriation.
 PHILIPPINE ISLANDS.
 During the last summer at my re- quest the secretary Of war visited the Philippine islands and has de- scribed his trip in his report. He found the islands in a state of tran quility and growing prosperity. ow- ing largely to the change in the tariff laws which has opened the markets of America to the products of the Philippines and has opened the Phil ippine markets to American manu- lecturers. The rapid increase in the trade between the two countries is shown in the following table:

CANAL TOLLS.

Another question which arises for | consideration and possible legislation Is the question of tolls in the canal
 This position is necessarily affected
 by the probable tonnage which will
 go through the canal. Ii is all a
 matter of estimate but one of the government commissions in 1900 in vestigated the question and made a report. They concluded that the to- tai of vessels employed in commerce that could use the isthmian canal in 1914 would amount to 6.S43,SO5 tons net register. and that this traffic would increase 25.1 per cent per de- cade: that it was not probable that all the commerce included in the to- tals would at once abandon the routes at present followed and make use of the new canal and that it might take some time. perhaps two years. to readjust trade with refer ence to the new conditions which the canal would establish. He did not in- clude, moreover. the tonnage of war vessels. although 1t is to be inferred that such vessels would make con siderable use of the canal In the matter of tolls he reached the con- clusion that a dollar net ton would not drive business away from the canal but that a higher rate would do so.
 In determining what the tolls should be We certainly ought not to insist that for a good many years to come they should amount to enough to pay the interest on5the investment of s40O,000.000 which the United States has made in the construction of tn ecanal.

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL OFFICERS

One of the great difficulties in the prompt organization and mobilization of militia and volunteer forces is the absence of competent officers of the rank of captain to teach the nev army. by the unit of the company. the business of being soldiers and of taking care of themselves so as to render effective service
 This need of army officers can only be supplied by provisions of law authorizing the appointment of A greater number of army officers than are needed to supply the commands of regular army troops now enlisted Tn the service. There are enough reg ular army officers to command the troops now enlisted, but congress has authorized and the department has followed the example of congress and exercised the authority conferred by detailing these army officers to dutv other than of the command of troops.
 For instance. there are a large num- Der of army officers assigned to duty. with military colleges or in colleges where military training is given. Then a large number of officers are assign ed to general staff duty, and there are various other places to which army officers can be and are legally assigned, which take them away from their regiments and companies. In order that the militia of each state should be properly distributed and made more like the regular army. regular army officers should be de- tailed to assist the adjutant general of each state in the supervision of the state militia; but this is inn possible unless provision is made by

Young Man Dies Of Charlton.

Chas. Deramus, a young man OF
about twenty-five years of age, who
has been working on Johnnie Naran's
thresbing machine until last Friday,
died at the home of Jack BenOit, south
of town, Tuesday afternoon. He was
with the machine until Friday when
he came into town to see the doctor
on account of swelling on his face,
and because he was feeling badly.
The doctor treated him aud went to
see him several times during the next
two Or three days, and finally called
another physician in consultation,
but their efforts we're futile and death
came as relief to untold suffering
Tuesday afternoon.
Little is known of the young man
here, as he has been here but q few
weeks. 1t is thought that he came
from Ward, where he has a brother

RICE HARVEST PROGRESSING RAPIDLY.
Fine Weather Facilitates Caring for
Crop; Yield not Above Normal;
Quality Good.

The splendid weather of the past
three weeks has facilitated the rice
harvest to such an extent that the last
of the week will see the major por-
ti0n Of the Honduras rice threshed
and under cover, with at least fifty
percent of it sold. 1t was feared that
the exceptionally large acreage Of
Honduras would knock the bottom out
/ Of the prices on this line of goods, but
while the price has not been what it
ought to have been, and is consider
ably lower than it was at this time
last year, it has STAYED pretty close
around three dollars for number one
stuff, and the farmers have been turn
ing it loose pretty rapidly. While
there has been one or two exception
ally large yields reported. h. l..
| L0ngenbach, of Iowa, getting a yield
of Is sacks per acre off IS acres, and
one or two twelve sack yields have
been reported, the average yield is
much below this amount, ranging
from six to nine sacks per acre. In
the majority Of instances the yield not
being nearly what the standing grain
gave reason to think it would be.
While the price has been but fair dur
ing the season there seems to be more
competition among the mills than there
was last year, as there are buyers
here from New Orleans, Crowley and
several Texas points as we'll as the
home mills.
Japan harvest can hardly be said to
have begun in earnest yet, although
q few lots of Jap. has been harvested
and threshed, and two lots have been
marketed, G. A. Austin received $500
per sack for small lot, while the
Cline Brothers sold theirs for S3.3t
per sack, the market seeming to be
uncertain on the Jap. offerings, pre-
sumably on account of the small guam
tity that have been offered SO far. Il
the present favorable weather contin-
ues the Jap. harvest will be in full
force the first of the week.
