Didn't Mind When 'StOrk" Came
Occasionally, But 1t Got
MOnOtOnous.

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. De.
A. Chase, night agent for taxicab
company, didn'tmind it at all when
the stork made occasional visits to
his home at Forty-ssventh street
and Virginia avenue, but when the
old birb began to make daily trips,
Chass thought it was time to call a
halt. Monday night an excited voice
over the telephone told Chase tnat
the bird had just arrived and left a
fine boy for the family. Chase wae
happy as could be.
Tuesday morning as he hurried
from the garage to the house to see
the nnew arrival he heard the family
COW believing. He turned aside a
moment and found that the bovine
stork had been around and left a
lusty yonng calf.
Good enough, " said Chase.
Wednesday evening as he started
to work, "Spec," the pride Of the
egg producing plant in the Chase
backyard, trotted proudly across his
path with fine young family Of IA,
when the hen stork had brought
around that day.
Chase began to getworried. 1t
seems to be in the air around here, "
he said.
But the climax came Thursday
morning. Chase had just arrived
home. Frolicking around in the
barn-yard was Nancy, the children's
pet goat, and with her were a pair
of kids that had just arrived.
What next?" he exclaimed.
Chase says they have an old cat that
he hasn't seen for several days, and
supposes she viii be around with a
big family soon. -Ex.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness a caused by an infiamed condi-

Deafness is the result, and unless the IN

Various penrees Of Envy.

Envy is a compound of grief and an
ger. The degrees of this passion de-
pend chiefly on the nearness or re-
moteness Of the objects, as to circum-
stances. If one who is forced to walk
on foot enVies a great man4for keep
ing coach and six, it will never be
with that violence, or give him that
disturbance which it may to man
who keeps a coach himself, but can
only afford to drive with four horses.
The symptoms of envy are various
and as hard to describe as those of
the plague. Among the fair the dis
ease is very common, and the signs of
it are very conspicuous in their opin-
ions and censure of one another.-Ber-
nard Vaudeville.

International Building exhibition to
be held at Leipzig from May to Octo-

Old and New VloIlna.

An interesting test Of the relative
merits Of old violins and new was
made the other day by the American
guild Of vlolinists in session at Chicago.
It may be recalled that some ysaEs
ago some experiments Of the same
sort were made In Paris. with the UNI
expected result that listeners not
knowing what sort they we're hearing
awarded the palm to the new instru-
ments. This is absurd. Of course. for

pertinent was meant TO settle that
point. Il proved. however. ineonelu-

Putnam BIazes A New
Race Solution Trial.

Easonton, Ca, November 81
An experiment at the solution Of
problem inaugarated by the white
people and the negroes OF Putnam
county is likely to have a widespread
influence for good in the southern
states. The best white residents Of
the county realize that misunder-
standing is backed OF most of the
friction between the races. With a
view to remedying that condition
they have been holding what might
be called educational meetings, =
with the negroes, in churches and in
the court house. In these gather
ings there is no hint of social equal
ity on either side. But there is a
great deal said about the mutualin-
terests Of the two races and the man
ner in which they may best be con-
served.
AS Benjamin w. West, Of this
place, president Of the Georgia
Bankers association, and one Of the
most respected citizens Of Georgia,
says; I'VE realize that the negro
is here, and, as far as the present
generation is concerned, he is here
to stay. We, therefore, realize that
the best thing to do is to have a
common understanding as to our
many relations.
A striking address at one ofthese
recent meetings was that made by c.
w, Driskell, a negro educator, who
analysed educational tendencies a.
mong the negroes, and started the
necessity of his race with unusual
incisiveness.
q. Driskell divides the so-called "ed-
ucated negro" into 4 classes. The
first 8 he regards as contributing
little to the solution of the problem. |
The first is the 'self-important and
egotistic; the second, those who
flock to cities, demand larger wages
out Of proportion to value given, and
are Of little help to their race; the
third, THE educated parasite, theE
professional loafer and the human
lesches. Driskell declares it is
of these 3 classes who con-
denim just such efforts as those now, |
going forward in Putnam to bring
better understanding between the
races.
Driskell states the fundamentals
of the remedy 50 clearly in other
portions his address that they are
worth reproduction as follows;
