Now comes the season Of accom-
plishment. Summers light and heat
have long ago suffused these buildings
with which we wrap ourselves against
the influences of the natural world and
have laid up even in tho feeblest Of us
some store Of energy, some additional
gift of life. Whether we see it or not,
we are ready now, if ever, against the
darkness of winter when the tides of
being are low and it's wheels turn slow
ly. We have before us the example
and inspiration of the earth's mighty
harvest, the warning Of these shorter
days, and the spur of cooler weather.
Those who teach know that the sue
cess of their years work depends on
the drive Of the next four months.
Those who direct the enterprises of
trade and manufacture know that this
is the time to realize what has long
been planned. If you purpose to learn
anything or do anything better than
in the past, now is the hour for your
beginning, the benefcent strength of
things is on your side, and the course
of the world runs with yours. The
past is help, but not hindrance, and
the way is clear toward whatever good
may be your goal.-Collier's Weekly.

WOMAN'S PROGRESS GOES ON
Pittsburgh Wards Board of School
Visitors Is for the Time Being
Entirely Feminine.

A news item in the Leader provides
striking evidence of womans progress.
Announcement was made that whole
board of school visitors in the Twenty
sixth ward will consist of women.
It has been only few years since
the candidacy of the late Miss Kate
Mcknight for a seat on an Allegheny
school board attracted statewide at
tention. But within a short period the
men of a city ward deemed it wise
and to the best interest of the citizens
to fill board of visitors with women.
The wisdom exhibited by the men in
giving women an opportunity to exer-
else their intelligence in governing the
public schools is a wholesome sign.
Women are the natural guardians of
children. They have charge of them
in their homes. Their experienced
hands will make favorable impress
sion on the schoolroom.
Women are already represented on
the board of education. Their pres
ence there is fixed. Their position
will not be changed unless their in
fluence is enlarged. - Pittsburgh
Leader.

ENJOYED PLAY OF REAL LIFE
Women Enthusiastic Over Acts Which
No Doubt Were Thoroughly Fa-
miliar to Them.

Robert w. Chambers, the novelist,
said at the Century club in New York:
1--WE novelists have got to remember
that the public, while claiming stout
ly to like truth and realism, really
hkes-really likes-well, here's q
story:
1.-TWO women stood in a queue wait
ing to get in to see melodrama.
This1l be good show said the
first woman. Life. you know. Real
life. Nothin' overdone.'
"'Yes, like life, too, said the other
woman. I don't want to be put to
sleep, though. Still, can't stand
nothin' far-fetched'
"'Same here said the first woman.
"And then they went in and sat
through five acts wherein the hero
killed thirty-six Kafirs with his naked
hand, found a diamond as big as a
ducks egg, smashed with his revolver
from a mile away the bottle of poison
that the beautiful heroine was about
to swallow rather than yield to the
Establishments of the villain, and final
ly killed the latter in an aeroplane
duel, slightly off stage, inheriting later
an unexpected dukedom, and so forth
and so on.
when the curtain fell to the sound
of wedding bells the two women looked
at each other with glistening eyes.
"Grand, wasn't it?' said the first.
Life real life, eh?'
"You bet, said the second. That's
life, that is. Nothin' far-fetched or
overdone.'"

CLAIMED BY TYPHOID.
H. C. Bandy Died Of That Dread Disease
Last Wednesday,

Hardly had the Chronicle been dellv.
cred to our people telling of the ser
ious sickness of H. &. Bandy with ty.
phold until his spirit had been borne
away and the public was called to
deeply regret the loss of an excellent
citizen.
He died at noon Wednesday after be-
ing confined to his bed about ten days.
Previous to taking his bed he had been
complaining for nearly two weeks and
the feeling now is that he had what is
termed walking typhoid for some
time previous to taking his bed.
The deceased was 80 years OF age, a
barber by trade and was recognized as
one of our most respected citizens.
He was alderman at the time of his
death and had been several times elect
ed as one OF the board. He was pro-
gresslve ano stood unfinchlngly for
every movement that pert0lned to
morals and goo1 behaviour.
The deceased leaves wife and two
children, a boy and a girl, both small.
He was carrying 81, 100 in life insur-
ance.
The funeral was conducted at the M.
E. Church Thursday afternoon led by
Rev. W. e. Martin and assisted by
Rev. l.. A. Hurst The church was
crowded to its full seating capacltay
while numbers of persons were unable
to enter the building. Rev. Martin
spoke very feelngly Of the deceased
and paid high tribute to his character
and worth as citizen. The remains
were inferred IN the cemetery here at
tended by large concourse of people.
Aside from friends residing here
those present from distance were
Mrs. W. E. Compton, Daniel Boone,
Ky. ; Mrs. Jas Benetield, Altamount; !;
Mrs. W. N. Burnett, Knoxville; Miss
Olive Bandy, Elmwood, III.

TAX DODGERS
Most Are in the Cities But Cannot Now
Be Reached.

During the past decade the average
growth in population OF all southern
states, Tennessee excluded, was twen-
ty per cent, while ours was only eight
per cent. In other words our neigh
boring states are growing two and one
half times as rapidly as Tennessee; and
this falling behind on our part is
wholly unjustifable, either in the light
of our own glorious past, or IN view OF
Tennessee's geographical position and
unrlvaled natural resources.
We must put stop to 1t.
But the condition named is not all
nor the worst. While our state as a
whole showed eight per cent population
increase, in ten years, our agricultural
population only increased three and
one-halt per cent, and many of the
states finest agricultural counties
show ed an actual decrease.
This hurts the value of every acre of
land in the state.
And why is our rural population
practically at stand still! II former
ly grew. One reason is that under our
antiquated Constitution and tax laws,
only visible property is taxed; and all
the property OF the farmer is In plain
view of the assessor. He cannot hide
a dollar of 1t; he cannot escape the tax
gatherer. On the other hand, in the
towns and cities of the state there are
millions of invisible property that pays
not penny of taxes, and never Will
until we amend our Constitution and
bring our tax laws abreast the times.
1t is therefore highly important that
every farmer, and every other man
who has tse good of This state at heart.

A few years ago Volner Handy
bought the Nicholas House property
from j. II. Beeson for 50, 900 and paid
So, 900 down. After conducting it for
some months he sold it to G. A. Haley,
who was then trustee of the county.
1t recently became known that Mr..
Haley wanted to sell the property. not
because it was not profitab e invest
ment, but because the hardship OF look
ing after and managing it was more
than he cared to carry longer.
John @. Burnett acted as the selling
agent between Mr.. Hinch and Mr..
Haley. Mr.. Handy has had consider
able experience IN the hotel business
and will be found very genial and &C.
comodating host. For the past two or
three years Mr.. Handy has heer con-
ducting a restaurant, which he trans
frered to 7. NJ. Rector who has also
had considerable experience IN conduct

Rector is running bakery supplying
