of Haynes was once travelling through
the wilds of West Virginia one Sunday
evening late he called halt at a log

when a woman came to the door.
Haynes said: where is your hus-

FREE SUGAR.

The proposition to place sugar on
the free list is causing more opposi-
ton than probably any other Of the
proposed tariff reforms, and from that
source it appears the lobby of which
the President made complaint is most
conspicuous.
1t is, no doubt, true that free sugar
would greatly reduce the profit OF
sugar making in the United States
Both the cane sugar industry OF
Louisiana and the beet sugar produc'
ton of the North and West would
suffer financially, but from these
sources come only a small part of the

sugar required by American consum-
ers, and there is no equity or general
advantage in taxing the many for the
benefit of the few.
The South generally is disposed to
feel kindly to the Louisiana sugar
planters, but the full capacity of
Louisiana sugar production, the full
capacity of the country for cane sugar
production, Hawaii included, was
reached many years ago, while the
country's consumption of sugar has
multiplied. Sugar is an. important
food product and it is out of the
question that the general public should
be taxed to add to the profit of these
producers.
Louisiana lands have remarkable
fertility. They will not go to waste
though the sugar industry Declines

THE PERFECT MAN."

There is lot of sound philosophy ,
in ''The Perfect Man." a poem which |
has a rather interesting history. In a
\ newspaper wrangle with another ed |
itor the author was bantered for being |
a cripple. Stung by the unmanly and
ungenerous rebuke, he replied in these |
lines, which are by Dudley Ried of
Gilman City:
What does It take to make a man
complete
From the crown of his head to sole
of his feet?
With naught to subtract and nothing
to add, u
"A man not too good, and man MOI
too bad?
Is man but an arm, leg, and boot?
An eye, and an ear, and a tongue,
and throat?
3 Is there nothing more in him to extol?
"a brain? Or heart? A conscience
or soul?
Is the hunchback, the deaf, the mute
4 and the blind
The only unfortunate the frail world
can find?
The only sad creature whose makeup
is weak
Enough for tongue and voice to
speak?
Is the man that hobbies along as he
goes
The only wreck in the tide of earth's
woes?
Ia there no petrified heart? No brain
out of plumb
No conscience deep-seared and wither-
ed and dumb?
The shrunken ideal, the hope out Oh
line, :.
The twisted desire, the wish-washy
will,
No cause to suspect that the makeup
is Ill?
Is there no vision to look through tne
skin
And see the deep voids that may liz

The crack on the inside, where the out
side is whole?
The warp in the heart and the limp II
