The Gulf Stream.

The Gulf stream originates in the
Atlantic equatorial current, which is
composed of two arms, one issuing
through the Florida strait from the
Gulf OF Mexico, the other running
westward along the northern shore Of
Cuba. The united stream follows the
Atlantic coast northeastward with a
velocity Of from two to Ave miles an
hour, gradually expanding in breadth
and diminishing in depth. but distinct

the eastern edge OF Newfoundland.
The comparative high temperature
OF the Gulf stream 90 10 20 degrees

parts OF western Europe. but to what
extent II would be difncult II not Inn

SOMETHING NEW NEEDED.

Congressman Mccall of Massa-
ehusetts and exMayor Mcclellan
of New York, when the latter was
in congress, were very close friends.
They had both won distinction
and no doubt were drawn together
on account of it-by the fact that
they were often separated from their
respective parties. Mcclellan was
once styled the "leader of the Nc
Clellan Democracy" which consist
ed of himself, as he voted alone on
several propositions. Mccall not
only voted against his party, but
often put forth propositions which
received only his solitary vote. On
one occasion a motion he made re-
ceived II votes besides his own.
Something wrong with that" he
remarked as he walked up the aisle.
81 must get something else. There
is no distinction in that kind of
vote."-The Sunday Magazine.

Rev. David Lander. of Easley, S. c ,

that many others will come too, pre-
pared to furnish "reminiscences of
the older ones who have passed
away. Letters from those who may
not be able to attend will add to
the interest. Salubria Springs was
originally included in one of the
Lander homesteads, and has been a
popular resort for many years. The
Accommodations are ample and attrac
tive, and special rates will be made

HOSTILE CAN OPENER.

Next to the collar button the can
opener has been of all minkind's in
animate enemies the most unrelent-
ing. The can opener has not the
elusive tendencies of the collar but
ton, but it has an even greater re-
lluctanoe to perform the duties prop
Ier to it. But a can opener can do
more things than not open cans. In
a recent investigation in Philadel-
phia of dishonest weights and meas
ures in groceries and markets can
openers were discovered fastened to
the fork or on the customers end
of the hanger. 1t is gratifying at
least to learn that a use has been
found for the can opener to which it
is better adapted than the opening
of cans.-The National Post.

BEFORE CIVIL SERVICE DAYS
Gross Ignorance Of Some oId-Time
Postmasters Revealed In Quarter
ly Report From One.

George s. PAUL., appointment
clerk to the post office department,
said at dinner in Washington:
"Our appointments are better,
thanks to civil service reform, than
they used to be. There used to be
some pretty ignorant postmasters in
the governments employ. Thus, in
the archives of the department there
are still preserved, l understand, a
letter written in the first half Of the
last century, from a village post
master who, learning that a quarter
ly report was expected of him, wrote
to the president in these terms:
"Mr. President Of the United
States-Dear Sir: Bein' required by
the instructions of the P. o. to re-
port quarterly, ! now fulfill that
pleasant duty by reportin' as fol-
lows. To wit. The harvestin' has
been goin' on purity well and most
of the neighbors has got their cut
tin about done. Wheat is hardly
an average crop on rollin' land. Corn
is yallerish and won't cut more'n ten
or twelve bushels to the acre. The
health of the community is only
tolerable, measles havin' broken out
about two miles from here. There
is a powerful awakenin' on the sub
ject of religion in the neighborhood.
Nancy Simpson, near neighbor,
gave birth to twins yesterday and
one of them won't live. This is about
all 1 have to report this present
quarter"
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1911-06-15

soon the community was in the midst
of an old-fashioned awakening"
Poore was a steady attendant at the
services and several times he asked
in writing that his brethren and sis
ters in the church pray that he might
have his voice restored. Finally there
came night when the excitement at
the revival seemed to be less than
usual, there was not, at least so much
loud singing and praying, though 1t is
said it was remarked at the time there
was deeper and more intense feeling
than before.
The revivalist requested those pres
ent to send to him, written out on
slips of paper. the things they most
urgently desired.
1T may be the will OF Providence to
restore your speech to you at this
time" said an elder of the church to
Poore.
The latter accordingly wrote out a
request to that effect and passed II up
to the pastor. At the same time he
made known the substance of his mes
sage to those around him and all
joined with the minister in praying in
his behalf.
Then there was a brief interval of
silent prayer, on the part OF the entire
audience. Everything was still in the
church when Planter Poore stood up,
gave a shout Of Joy and began TO sing.
The others in the church stared In
wonder. then in awe. Then, with one
accord. they rose and joined Poore In
singing Nearer My God TO Thee"
Those who we're there say the con-
gregation nearly went wild with ex-
element. some of them running out
with the cry "a miraclel a miracle!"
Poore ran TO the pulpit and poured
out his thanks for the restoration OF
his voice.
The news spread and by the next
morning people were fiocking into
Westminster from pretty much all
over Oconoee county. Afidavits tell
ing OF the circumstances under which
the planter found his voice have been
made and are nov a part OF the pub
lie records.

THE BOY ON THE FARM.

There is the making of a good
man in the boy on the farm, &Ft he
can be irretrievably spoiled n the
making, if too much is put upon
him; if bis shoulders are loaded
with blame for everything that goes
wrong indoors and out; if everybody
feels privileged to give him orders,
and if he is regarded as a mere ma
chine without muscles to tire, sensi-
bilities to wound, intellect to stimu-
late, or a soul to inspire with long
ings for better things. Those into
whose hands are committed these
youths ordained to eat their bread
in the sweat of their face, have
responsibility above that Of merely
providing food, shelter and clothing.
An employer may be harboring an
angel unawares, and whether this be
true or not, there is laid upon him
the duty of dealing justly and con-
scientiously with the lad.-Shoals

SOME EVILS OF CIVILIZATION
inventions and Devices Of These Mod.
ern Times That Have Their
UnhyalenIo Side.

Many Of the inventions Of civili-
zation have their unhygienic side.
The invention Of houses has en-
abled mankind to dwell in all parts
of the world, but it is responsible
for tuberculosis, especially after
glass was devised, which, while let
ting in the light, keeps out the air.
The invention of the alphabet and
printing has made possible the ac-
emulation Of knowledge, but il has
produced eye strain with all its at
tendant evils. The invention of
chairs has added to human conven-
fence, but it has led to spinal curva-
ture and abdominal congestion. The
device of a division of labor has
added to wealth, but has destroyed
the normal balance of mental and
physical work, recreation and rest.
Similar fault may be found with
clothing, especially corsets, shoes
and hats, and with numerous other
contrivances. Yet it would be fool
ish, even if it were possible, to at
tempt to "return to nature" in the
sense of abolishing civilization. We
must not 60 backward, but forward.
The cure of eye strain is not in dis
regarding the invention of reading,
but introducing the invention of
glasses. The cure Of tuberculosis is
not in the destruction of houses, but
in devices for ventilation.-Dr. r.
wing Fisher in the New York Chris
tan Advocate.

MYSTIC NUMBER OF A KING
Nine Was curiously involved in the
Life Of Edward, Great BrltaIn's
Late Ruler.

It is a curious coincidence that
nine was the mystic number of the
late King Edward, and a correspond
ent of the New York Sun gives some
extraordinary examples.
In the name of Edward VII"
there are six letters and three fig
ures-six and three are nine. His
mother, Queen Victoria, was born in
1919. She died in 1901. Her age
was eighty-one-nine times nine are
eighty-one. He was one>of nine chill
dren. He was born on November 8.
He was married in 1863-seven
times nine are sixty-three. His wife,
Alexandra, has nine letters in her
name. She was a daughter of the
ninth king of Denmark. King Ed
ward came to the throne of England
in his ffty-eighth year. He was
crowned on August 9 and reigned
nine years. He died at the age Of
sixty-nine. His funeral procession
started at nine in the morning and
was followed to the grave by nine
kings. He won three Derbys-three
times three are nine. There are nine
letters in the name Persimmon, the
first winner.

MANY VARIETIES OF PALMS
eome Interesting Facts About the
Widely Differing Members Of
This Tree FamIIx

In general palms are erect, un-
branched trees with buttressed bases.
Many attain heights of 100 feet and
at their SUBMITS they bear rosette
Of large leaves, each resembling a
large fan in some kinds and feath-
er in others. In some species the fan
like leaves exceed 40 feet in length
and six feet in breadth; the Eleaves
resembling feathers are twenty feet
by four or more, without division.
Some species are low growing, even
creeping; others are slender stemmed
plants which climb by means Of
hooked spines; some have flexible
stems which extend from tree to tree
in festoons and attain several hun
bred feet, 500 being common, and
some writers place the length at
1900 and even more. In the ordi-
nary species the flowers are borne
in huge clusters. The fruits are
mostly berries and drupes. They are
enclosed in a fibrous husk and fire.
quently contain hard nut. The
flowers, which are generally small,
bear no relation in size to the fruit,
which may be as small as a pea or,
as in the double cocoanut, larger than
a mans head.

Religious Revival in South Caro-.
lima Scene Of Remarkable
Episode.
SHOUTS IN JOY AND SINGS
Speeches. for Three Years Man Finds
Voice Suddenly Restored-Men
Make Affidavit TO Strange
Cure at Baptist Re-
vival Services.

, Charleston, s. C.-Thomas Drayton
Poore Of Oconee county, who gradual.
ly lost his voice and had not been
able to utter an articulate sound for
three years, has recovered in an in.
slant, it is said, the full power of
speech while hundreds looked on and
prayed.
Poore is a well-to-do planter and
real estate operator. He has been
for many years a leading member of
the Baptist church in Westminster,
and his word, his neighbors unite in
saying, is thoroughly trustworthy.
Mr. Poore early in 1908 began to be
troubled with nervous symptoms.
They rapidly progressed, and in Feb
ruary of that year his voice began to
fail. He had been public speaker,
and for many years had been accus-
toned to sing in the church, his tones
being unusually strong and clear
None of the physicians summoned
was able to stop the malady, which
II was decided was due to a rare type
of nervous indigestion.
BY December, 1908, Mr.. Poore's
voice was so nearly gone that on the
18th of that month he could no longer
even whisper. A day or so later even
the medical attendants gave the case
up as hopeless.
Several weeks ago revival services
were inaugurated in the Westminster
Baptist church under the leadership
of the Rev. s. e. Stephens, returned
missionary. The meetings proved full
of religious fervor from the start, and
