Literary Notes.

Sir Henry Norman, M. p, writing OF
an automobile journey in Africa in
Scribner's Magazine for March. says
that "the comparatively small part of
the Garden OF Allah which exists out
side of Mr.. Kitchens luxuriant imagi-
nation" Is within half an hour OF the
hotel 1t was originally an old garden
of the Biskra oasis and was walled
around and elaborated at great cost
by its eccentric owner, Count Landon.
Nansen, the Arctic explorer, has
written for the March Scribner pa
per in which he gives most encour-
aging account of the chances Of Scott
and Amundsen to reach the South pole
now; in fact, the announcement Of it
is due in the very early spring. He
describes the excellent equipment Of
each of them.
Robert Grant has been for many
years a Judge of probate in Massachu'
sets; he therefore writes with I'M
usual knowledge on the subject OF
wills and how they are broken in the
March Scribner. His series, "The Con-
victions OF Grandfather" has revived
great interest in Fred and Josephine.

An oIden Meningitis Remedy.

To the Editor OF The Chronicle:
Away back in the seventies. when
necessity was the mother of inven-
ton" in America, and especially in the
South, and before science handed
down to the modern age the different
serums. cases OF this fatal disease
were rare.
An old English physician, who had
much success in all his practice, would
scar the back from the neck TO the
end of the spine-not merely blister,
but leave scars that would be with one
always.
A piece of iron, srch as poker
used in old-time fireplaces, well
cleansed or sterilzed and brought to
red heat, was applied. The scar the
length of the poker directly down the
center and length of the spine is suffi.
cient
While this seems very cruel. he
never lost a case. Some said the rem
edy must be worse than the disease.

Quaker Meditations.

A crank is almost any person who
doesn't think as we do.
The weather prophet doesn't always
find his business profitable.
We should try to forgive our enemies
as we forgive ourselves.
In a man of mettle silence may be
golden, or it may be iron-ical.
The shoemaker should always be
able to keep body and sole together.
Some people don't believe half they
hear, even when they tell it them
selves.
The fellow who gloats over our fail
ures is the one whose advice we have
disregarded.

SONG of the Recall.

There's tuneful little ditty echoing
through the city hall. The republican
committee sings the Song of the Re-
call. They've recalled their pledge al
ready and old Bill remains their
chcice-they only thought they were
for Teddy till they heard their mas
ter's voice.
They thought the jobs would go
along whichever way they went, but
the master of the jobs possessed the
opposite intent. They see it's up to
them to face about for Bill and boiler,
for the way the jobs are going is the
way they'll have to foller.
They thought they were for Roose-
welt, but they find they are for Taft
They were trying to look forward, but
they find they're facing aft. They've
recalled their pledge already and old
Bill remains their choice. They only
thought they were for Teddy till they
heard their masters voice.-St. Louis
Republic.

For Conuress:

Chairman Sheb Williams will not
have any presidential primary in Texas
IL he can help it. Texas needs pro-
gressive democratic chairman.-Bryan
Eagle.
II democracy means anything 1t
means a government by the people,
and if the democratic party is really
the defender of these principles it can
do no less than live up to them in its
party affairs. That the majority oil
democrats of Texas favor primary
that they may express their choice fol
president there seems no room tt
doubt, and that being true they should
have one. If they do not get one the
Texas democrats will put progress
sive chairman at the head of the party
organization, man who will heed the
voice of his party.-Wills Point Chron

CONGRESSMAN RUFUS
HARDY ANNOUNCES
ls Again a Candidate to Succeed Him.
self In the Lower House
Of Congress.

Hon. Rnfus Hardy of Corsicana, rep
Iresentative in congress from this (the
SIXTH congressional district, is again
candidate for the democratic nomi-
nation as such, and asks The Eagle to
make announcement of this fact to the
democratic voters of the district. The
district is composed Of Navarro, Lime
stone, Freestone, Milan, Robertson
and Brazos counties, and as Judge
Hardy is now serving his third term
in congress, it Is hardly necessary for
The Eagle to say more than to merely
announce the fact of his candidacy.
Especially is this true in Brazos coun
ty, which was for many years Judge
Hardy's home He spent his boyhood
and young manhood at Millican, re.
ceived the foundation of his education
there, and a number of his old.time
friends still reside there and at other
points in the county.
Judge Hardy has pursued the same
course in politics that has always char
lacterized his actions in private life.
He is straightforward, honest, con-
scientious. All his conclusions are
reached by careful, thoughtful investi-

around to his way of thinking, and par
ticularly as to the policy laid down by
Mr.. Bryan on the question of free raw

duty into this country unless the man

; free, thereby protecting our own farm
ers and other producers of the raw
material. Mr.. Hardy opposed these
views and advocated that raw mate
rails be permitted to come in free OF
