IN NORTHERN cLlMEs.

II. G.. Wells thinks that some day
there will be a universal fight from
our northern climate TO live through
the winters in the south. That time
will never come. For the person born
ia the northern climate that is best
The monontony of tropical life is op'
pressive; every day the same; no
frosts, no freeze, no icy blasts-this is
a sad lot The particular commenda'
tion of the tropical life is that It is
mostly outdoors; that one gets pure
air and sunshine. But one can get
these things in the north and in a way
that makes them real The bedroom
window can always be open. The house
may be kept temperate, Go to 20, an
moist, says the Ohio State Journal.
Then one can robe himself and strike
out into the keen air with n relish.
These are better than a monotony of
warmth. There is the variety Of life
IN the northern cline, somewhat that
gives il spice and zest. That is the
secret Of our civilization. 1t is what
makes a man get a move on himself,
Let one walk along the woodland ways
of the tropics as the sun goes down,
and feel all the soft luxury of the
event. and the experience is not half
as grand as when one puts on his
great coat and dashes out into a big
sunlit morning, when the thermome-
ter is ten degrees above zero, and
the crisp air makes the blood fairly
shout for joy.

it brings the requisite bow In contact
with the key wire and produces sound
until released.

and instructive remarks with the fol-
lowing:

From the audience which was pres

great number of farmers in the
Piedmont section of the state who
have suffered from the destructive
effects of the beetles. Some promi-

had lost as much as 1000 cords in a
short space of time This shows the
quick and destructive work of the
