HOT DAYS IN THE ARCTIC.

In his article in Harper's for April
Stefansson, the Arctic explorer, tells
of the discormforts of summer days
in the far north.
July was intolerably hot. We had
no thermometer, but | feel sure that
many day the temperature must
have been over one hundred degrees
in the sun, and sometimes for weeks
on end there was not a cloud in the
sky. At midnight the sun was what
we would say an hour high, so that
it beat down on US without rest the
twenty-four hours through. The hot
test period of the day was about 3
o'clock in the evening, and the cool
est perhaps 4 or 5 in the morning.
The mosquitoes were so bad that sew
eral of our dogs went completely
blind for the time, through the swell
ing of their eyes, and all OF them
were lame from the running sores
caused by the mosquito stings on the
line where the hair meets the pad OF
the foot. 1t is true that on our en-
tire expedition we had no experience
that more nearly deserved the name
of suffering than this of the combined
heat and mosquitoes of our Copper
Mine river summer.

NEVER SHOOT A TREE.

On January 9Th, according to the
Kansas City Journal, Nemesis, after
following Henry Zeigler 20 years,
wreaked vengeance upon him in re-
markable manner" Twenty years
ago, near Hone Grove, Texas, Zeig-
land, then a wealthy young farmer,
won the hand of Matilda Tichnor,
probably kin to the Greene county,
Virginia, Tichnors, but few days
before the time appointed for the
marriage zeigland refused to marry
the girl, and she, like the true Tex
as belle that she was, committed sui
side.
Whereupon her brother Phil, went
to Highlands home and latter de-
nouncing him bitterly fired al him.
The bullet grazed Highlands cheek
and buried itself in a nearby tree.
Young Tichnor thinking that he had
killed the villain that had refused his
sisters snowy hand, initiated her eX-
ample and killed himself. Zeigland
still lived.
Twenty years elapse. Act Ill On
January 9th zeigland and one of his
sons cut down the tree in which
Tichnor's bullet had lodged twenty
years before. The tree proved too
tough for splitting up, and so small
charge of dynamite was used" Alas!
the explosion released the long-for-
gotten bullet with such force that it
pierced Zeigland's head, and he fell
mortally wounded, dying an hour la
ter. He explained the mysterious
bullet to his son as he lay dying.
Slow music Light low. Curtain.

TOMORROW
(BY WaIt Mason.l

Oh, what is the profit in sorrow,
and what's the advantage Of woe?
We've troubles today but tomorrow
the most of them surely will go. Say,
where are the heartbreaking troubles
that worried you crazy last year?
They fioated away like the bubbles,
and so will the troubles now here.
And where is the bitter affection
that drove from your bosom all hope?
It's Travelled from your jurisdiction,
in vain were the weeps that you
wope It's foolish to hunt grief or
borrow, it's naught but a habit of
mind; the dawning of every tomor-
row leaves Yesterdays burden be-
hind This life has so much that is
pleasant, tomorrow's so loaded with
joy, the cheap little griefs of the
present should fail to distress or an
noy Tomorrow's so pregnant with
promise, the outlook's so cheerful
and gay, that Richard and Henry and
Thomas should pass up the hills OF
today. Tomorrow is happy and smil-
ing, a goddess bedecked with a
wreath; tomorrow is fair and beguil-
ing, so let us quit crashing our
teeth. Let's be like the bygone to-
morrows, and wear just such smiles
as they wore, and thus we'll discover
that sorrows a snare that no longer
can snore.

If WE KNEW.

Could we but draw back the curtains
That surround each other IVES
See the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives,
often We would find it better
Purer than We Judge We should!
We should love each other better
If we only understood.
Could we Judge all deeds by motives,
See the good and bad within,
Often we should love the sinner
All the while We 4O1the the slh.
Could we know the powers working
To o'erthrow integrity,
We should Judge each others errors
With more patient charity.
If We knew the cares and trials,
Knew the effort all in vain.
And the bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and gain,
Would the grim external roughness
Seem, I wonder, just the same?
Should we help where now we hinder
Should we pity where we blame
All! We judge each other harshly,
Knowing not life's hidden force;
Knowing not the count of action
Is less turbid at its source.
! Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good;
Oh, we'd love each other better
If we only understood.

AN ASYLUM FOR JAGGERs.

From the Macon Evening News.
Representative Pickett mas an
nounced his intention OF introducing
AT the next session of the legislature
a bill to establish an asylum Tor me
briates.
He takes the position that persons
whose health has been wrecked by
the use of intoxicants and drugs
should not be confined in the state
asylum for the insane, but in a spe-
cial sanitarium.
Georgia being a prohibition state
if appears rather anomalous, to say
the least, that it should be called
upon to provide a place of treatment
for drunks. Such, however, being
the case. if not the necessity, it would
be we'll to give the proposition serious
consideration. Minnesota has Just
established farm for its 'jaggers,
where the Itquor-soaked men and Wo-
men may recuperate through the me-
dunn of fresh air, plenty of water,
invigorating work and isolation
The insane asylum is certainly not
the place for those whose minds have
been temporarily dethroned by Whls-
key and drugs.

Why Not "Bird Day" in Georgia

Woman's suffrage may not stand
much of a show at the coming SEES
sion of the Georgia legislature, but
there is one woman anxious to see
new laws formulated who has the I'M
qualified endorsement of The News,
and is entitled and We believe will
have the endorsement of all the peo-
pie of the state. She will come not
to ask equal rights for women, but
to ask for the protection Of the song
birds of Georgia and for the institu-
ton of an annual bird day celebra-
tion in this state that will teach
young and old the value of their
feathered friends.
The woman is Mrs. Wayerly Fair
man of Atlanta, who has the distinct
ion of being the only female game
warden in the world She is also
secretary of the Burroughs Society in
Georgia, and it is in this capacity
that she has formulated the request
which viii be submitted to the IN
coming legislature urging that an
annual bird day be set apart in the
state The efforts of the Burroughs
Society are arousing a wide interest
in the Importance of bird lore and
bird conservation, and Mrs. Fairman
has already received the promise of
assistance from well known members
of the assembly.
Bird day, as it is planned, would
be something like the annual arbor
day. All public school children would
take part in it, and it is felt that it
could be made a beautiful as well
as instructive event.
Mrs. Fairman will undoubtedly
have a hearing at the hands of the
lawmakers.

On the banks of Kinchafoonee,
Under shades Of magnolia trees
We have fished, never lonely,
Listening to the signing breeze.
Down the river we have fioated,
Fishing for the trout and Dream
On her beauty we have gloated,
In her waters we have had swim
Beneath her groves of oak and pine
We have watched the squirrel play
And within the bush and vine
We have heard the noisy jay.
Ger her ripples, rocks and pebbles
We have heard her waters roar,
With the soft musical treble
We have heard her ward pour
We have caught her perch and trout,
We have hunted hpr squirrels, too;
We have rested beneath her shades,
Protected from the morning dew
We have camped upon her banks
In the beautiful summer days;
Now my heart is within her sank,
And my souls within her braes.

The, Tariff Measure.

The democratic tariff is being rap
idly put through the congress item

expected, it has features that are not
satisfactory to every democrat. It
has clauses that cannot escape the
challenge of sound judgment and
fairness. That is a condition not to
be avoided. and the differences of
opinions are honest. But the Amer
lean people have demanded down
ward revision, and the democratic
party is pledged to it. Everybody
will have to make concessions, sub
init to some inequalities. The dem

will be good. There is no way to

latest candidate is the Fran, which
