Old Homes Disappearing.

From the Birmingham tAlal News
The grand old before tie war homes,
STEPPED i'm romance and dear TO the heart
of the children of the old south, are fast
going Set in a grove of oaks. the blS
house, with its imposing columns, ample
verandas and its air of hospitality and
cheer, soon will be no more. Some or
these old mansions have fallen into wreck
and ruin: hundreds have been burned.
The surviving ones are relies of an age
that is past.
For several years there has been a
movement in the south for smaller farms.
This movement has been constantly ac-

welfare of this section. The old plania-

could be relied upon-and when one per-
son was willing to pass his life in the en-

The south is becoming more utilitarian.
Descendants of those cavaliers who
charged with Rupert and melted their
plate to support the tottering throne Of
an unworthy Stuart have scanned their
lesson well. Life is activity, hurry and
turmoil. Ii still would be an elysian ex-
istence forever to loiter in the shade and

The Slow-Pay Customers.

From the Lowell Courier-Cifizen-
II is a curious thing, often called atten-
ton to by tradesmen in our older cities.
that very often the so-called best trade"
is the slowest pay. Indeed. IT is probable
that this is universal statement. Ions
use of credit leads to a lack of considera-
ton of the tradesman. 1t is easy to get
things charged, and easier still to throw
the resulting bills into the waste basket
from month to month, awaiting the day
when postponement can be no longer CON
sidered. Every community has plenty of
men-generally the most wealthy men
and women are the worst offenders-who
do not fully appreciate the inconvenience
and injustice to the man VINO supplies
them their goods-even their most neces-
say goods. They would never dream OF
asking the butcher, baker and candle
stick maker for small loans Of money,
and yet that is precisely what they DO.
in effect, when they demand by tacit
postponernent a long extension Of credit
often for a year or more-on bills which
the tradesman Is compelled to settle on
his end of the deal in ten days or a
month. When one considers that, as a
rule the man or woman who willfully
postpones payment for undue intervals
could pay promptly as we'll as not, the
injustice is the more marked In the
vast majority of cases 1t Is heedlesshess,
born OF ignorance OF tne true eSseHce u
the transaction. The wealthy family with
a six-month grocer's bill unpaid is sim
ply asking a man who is far less able
to bear the burden to lend money 10 IL
without the slightest security! That is
not the part of true responsibility. 1t
is neither gentlemanly nor ladylike. 1t
is certainly not good business for either
party 1t invites the padding OF old bills
with entries of goods that were never
actually sent-and the practice is the
more easily defended In cases where pay
ments are VIGOROUSLY lax, because OF the
obvious temptation to make good for the
lost interest and the risk of further
losses due to the responsibility of many
households of that class The just man
pays his bills promptly, recogniAng his
RESPONSIBILITIES for just what they are
The poor man pays cash. The rich man
gene ally slaves off paying just as Ions
as he can-and in some cases has been
known to ask how much discount he can
get, at the end, for even paying the bill
