The Hungry Scribe.
From Golfers.


Many periodicals tell about rural life.
They give balance sheets of gentle
mans garden and the chicken ranch run
by a perfect lady. If YOU read their
tasty articles you will soon learn how to
coax the mangel-wurZel into restored
vigor and how to derive a coy annual
income out of a pansy bed. Their pretty
pictures of out-of-doors are refreshing
after morning over the washtubs. 1t
is when they are specific that they are
sometimes dangerous. Less balance
sheet and more pine-woods rambling
would render them safer reading for i'm
questionable families, who might be IN
duced by the apparent accuracy and de-
tailed eNactncss of the recital to journey
over into the photographed district where
tumultuOuS tomato patches enrich new
arrivals from the city. We are led to
these reflections by knowledge of a mar
ried couple who moved into certain
country town in large part because OF a
series of articles with photographs pub
lished i'm perhaps the most distinguished
of the rural periodicals. The articles
were those gay. dashing affairs about
How. TO Live on 500 Year. The
publication sent UP a photographer to
snap the kitchen. the farmers wife
and other items in the human authentic
narrative The writer of the article and
the photographer went over to neigh
bors house and photographed the neigh
bor's wife at her work. The statements
in his articles were similar pieces of APP
Proclamation. He told of three persons
rendered happy for one full month on a
single pound of coffee. when a pound a
week would he more accurate. 1t must
be pleasant living yonder, said certain
family and over from another state they
.trooped and settled near the writer of
the articles, who forthwith formed the
habit of dropping in on the new ar
rivals for a snack Of food. His home
menage was chronically insufficient The
writer who had solved life at reduced
rates kept coming for sustenance to the
folks who had followed his message of
enlightenment.

TO TUNNEL ENGLISH CHANNEL
Scheme 10 Being Revived In Spite Of
Refusal to Pass Last
Bill

The scheme for tunnel between
England and France is being revived
in spite of the emphatic refusal OF
the last bill which was presented in
1907. But great changes have been
brought about since then in relation
to the military opposition to the
scheme. for the coming of the aero
plane and its rapid development as
an implement of war have to some
extent removed the idea OF danger
from invasion by tunnel.
II II aeroplanes can cross the
channel together, as they did few
weeks ago. there is little reason why
an army of them may not do so in
the near future IL they wished. A tun-
mel also might under certain circum-
stances be a help in time of war
rather than a danger. as much Of our
food supply could be brought
through f.
The chief advantage. however. of
the tunnel would be an increase Of
trade and tourist traffic between Eng.
land and France as well as countries
beyond France. At present the Dor
ings at each side are well over a
mile and It is estimated that the
whole work could be completed with
n FIVE years. as there is no hard rock
10 be pierced. The adoption of elec
tricity instead OF steam would also
remove one of the original draw
backs.

VALUE OF GOOD TURN.

Value of the good turn as . char
acter builder is simply. logical and
wildly described by L. \. IIeadley,
instructor in psychology in Carlcton
college. Mortified. Minnesota. lie
points out that the brain is developed
and strengthened by mental exercise
i'm the same way that the muscles OF
the body grow powerful when in con-
slant use. I'm saying that the brain
grows" he writes. we do cot mean
that it grows any new excrescences
any more than we mean that 4 n;an
in developing his muscles grows 4
new arm. In each case the ir-ernal
structure of parts is continually re-
arranged The delicate structure IF
the brain makes it especially susceot-
ible to change But the only force
which can have any appreciabls M
fluence on this finely adjusted organ
is that from the nervous impulses
which flow through it and for which
it forms conducting trail. II is
just these impulses which exercise the
brain"
He then points out that th2 differ
ence between the muscle AMI nerve
phenomenon is this: The nerve strrc-
ture is more easily torn down and
more readily rebuilt.
Referring to the good turn he SAYS.
"The growth is bound to come # The
exercise is consistent and persistent
enough. But it must be bo;n. II 4
person is going 10 he prepared to do
some fine and noble act when the
opportunity comes he must have his
mind and body i'm training and wait
ing. He must give a little voluntary
exercise regularly every day anu do
this with especial rigor in the years
of youth when the body and nervous
system are most rapidly developing
and consequently most permanently
impressed by the effects of their own
exercise Then is the time to per
form the little acts which viii cstaD-
lish such habits as will carry their
possessor safely over the great crises
i'm which he is not even given time to
think. They are the insurance which
one pays without immediate results
against that ever unexpected c1N
when a crucial moment shall arise.
Thus we see that in doing u good
deed every day, the nervous impulses
travelling through the brain and out
through the muscles to consummate
the act, blaze out, so TO speak, trail
which will be naturally followed when
the same impulse recurs again. and
that the doing of good deeds will be-
come habitual."

deputy warden at the main prison,

Jefferson county.
Simultaneously with this announce

man of the prison commission, that
George F. Clark, democrat, had been
appointed secretary to the commission
and bookkeeper al the main prison.
The appointments are unique, in
that Mr.. Runners appointment was
almost without solicitation and that it
is recognition ofthe promotion sys-
tenn for worthy employees.
His strongest endorsers were the con-
victs themselves who have learned to
respect him during the four months
that he has been in office.
Mr.. Clark was until recently local
freight agent of the l.. & N. railroad.
