Martin Luther said old men
became rusty, musty, tasty and
crusty though Martin was a good
man if he was an ardent lover
and could love none other NUM-
save one married, and thereby
laid the foundation of our Prot
estant Reformation. One of Ma
poleon's notices was (Old men
for counsel.) There is but little
difference in issuing bonds and
voting a tax. When we vote a
tax we vote a debt and we should
have a care lest we initiate our
neighboring county of which we
have been so we'll told by friend
Jeffries. We younger ones can
afford to wait awhile for the good
roads millennium and give our
efficient road overlooker a chance
under our present provisions
which will bring favorable re.
suits. Better have moderation
for our guide, suffer some minor
ills than fly to those we know
not of.
Now Bro. Harris we know
this is not a wholesome doctrine
or full of comfort to many but
let me admonish you in the
language of Buck Brown an old
sinner whose cabin stood on tor
of a high mountain near Obieys
river. Buck had never bowed the
knee to man or maker but on the
night of that terrible April storm
some 80 years ago while the trees
nearly were being nprooted the
boards of his cabin being scat
tered around and the poles fall
ing inside, Buck sure prayed Ions
and loud for deliverance ther

jest hear me this time I'll never

Tired Fields.

No farmer would think of working
his horse continuously. He gives him
Sunday off and at times says: Il think
I'd better let OF Bill run out to grass
for a right smart spell. He don't look
Just right the last few days"
Does this same farmer watch his
fields as carefully as he does his horse?
Does he know the looks of tired field
as well? Does he turn his tired fields
ont Ito rest for spell?'
If a horse is thin he is rested and
fed carefully. If a field is thin and
tired it. TOO. must be rested and fed
with clover, cowpeas or barnyard
manure.

An Actors Union.

G. B. Shaw, dramatist, Irishman, wit and
general bureau of information for the universe
at large delivered characteristic lecture at
London recently in which he advocated with his
usual incisiveness the formation of actors
union.
This distinguished playwright told his actor
hearers they were as much subject to supply
and demand as fish. When good actors are many
Pay goes down, when stars few pay goes up.
Therefore, argued he, form union in order to
prevent scale cutting by incompetent persons.
Mr.. Shaw again likened actors to fish by say
ing that many actresses receive good pay not for
high class work but for good looks, and good
looks, he urged, won't keep long. If players
wise, therefore, they will endeavor to de-
velop talent rather than striking appearances,
because talent is usually like wine and grows
better with age.
He paid his compliments to the star sys-
tenn, now in vogue, in manner not at all COM
ELEMENTARY. 1t is all wrong and vicious, he de-
clared, and fastens the audiences attention on
the player instead of the play. Further than
that it breeds discOrd among players because
they continually play to the crowd and not with
each other. If some shrewd individual catches
the ear of the audience he will go to lengths to
cover up good work done by fellow actor in or
der to monopolize applause.
Mr.. Shaw's chief remedy for all the ills the
stage is heir to is combination. Form an &C
tors unon,' he urged; ''the doctors have raised
the standard of their profession by that method,
have eliminated quacks, and established them
selves in the confidence of the public. SO can
YOU Go and do likewise"
We believe Mr. Shaw's idea is good one but
think more could be done if the auditors would
form union. The theatre can best be controll-
ed from the box-office end.

A Methusaleh of the Sea.

There was broken up lately al
Teneriffe, the Canary Islands, what
was undoubtedly the Oldest ship in
the world. 1t was the Italian ship
Anita, built in Genoa in 1548, and al
most an exact duplicate of the Santa
Maria, the famous galleon in which
Columbus made his voyage of discov,
cry. The Anita was built for strength
rather than for grace or speed. She
was broad beamed and clumsy, but
she had weathered hurricanes and
typhoons in all parts of the seas, and
escaped unharmed from the perils OF
the deep, from Cape Horn to Hudson
Bay. She had a worlds record as the
slowest ship afloat, averaging 20s
days between Baltimore, Maryland
and Rio de Janeiro. AS her lack OF
speed was losing money for her own
er, and as she seemed destined to de-
fy the elements and enrich Lloyds in
definitely as long as she remained
afloat it was decided to sell her fol
what she would bring piecemeal and
employ the proceeds in the construc-
ton of new vessel.-Harper' s

New Submarine Unique Boat.

Washington, June 5.-Plans for the

public at the navy department to-day
disclosed the fact that the vessel will
be unique as a war craft.
The contract for the construction
of the Bushnell was awarded to a
shipbuilding concern in Seattle
Wash. Her cost will be close to one
million dollars and she is to be com
pleted within 21 months.
The Bushnell is designed as a
mother ship for squadron OF
submarines, and many roomy state
rooms will be provided for the Off
GERS and crews of the submarines
when they are not actually cruising
Powerful hosting apparatus will
be installed where, with submarine
damaged or sunk, can speedily be
lifted to the surface of the sea and
a towing maching will enable the
mother boat" to tow five Of her
brood at one time. A machine shop
will be installed on the Bushnell.
