Didn't Know Who Hit Him.

In the Harlem court it was no easy matter for a negro porter to explain just what had hit him, says the New York Sun. His head was neatly bound in the gauzy whiteness of first aid, and but for a brace of dark and indignant eyes which flashed from the front of the medical bundle and pair of large and dark ears protruding from either side, he would have resembled q care fully molded, bullet shaped snowfall. Through a slight slit ill the sanitary headgear the negro explained that he had been hit from 35 directions while at work in a cafe. At the time he as- serted he was engaged in "scolding the bcss' about his small wages, the class of persons who came to the cafe and the superiority of the negro race over the white in every detail except their genral color scheme. "Well, who hit you," asked the magistrate. "We-l-l," " said the porter, Il don't know jes' who all took a slam at me, but what know is dis: In dat store at dat time they were about B men, an what do know IS that was walloped at least 35 times. Yer bopor. jes' use your own judg' ment."

Personality.

The two great obstacles to the healthy development of personality are jealousy and fear, and they are cs high and terrible in business as sn any other department of llfe's activi
 ties. So long as man harbors envy for any one of his fellows. moSe es- pecially his competitor in business, so long will he be devoid of that elixir which personality advertises. Being jealous of some other man does not harm the other man; 1t only injures the jealous one. And if the jealousy be openly expressed. the extent of the damage increases, whilst the object of the envy receives an addition oi benefit and value for himself through the gratuitous advertisement. 4 man occupied in envyirg another Is using up power which he could better apply s>r his own progre&sion.-Exchange.

JEFFERSON COUNTY
 LEADS STATE GINNING
1882 Bales Under Last Year-En- tire State Shows 50 per
 cent Loss.

Jefferson county leads the entire state in the number of bales of cot ton ginned to November Il, but it is still 12,S23 bales under last years figures.
 The state shows 664 ,424 bales ginn- ed, as compared with 926,9S5 bales during the same period last year. This difference of 322.561 bales shows that the cotton sinned to the date mentioned was moro than 50 per cent less than the amount ginn- ed in the same time in 1916 It indi cates the damage dore by the early killing frosts, boil weevil and spring drouths, cotton men say.
 These figures are taken from the report of theUnited States Depart ment of Agriculture, and in reaching the total round bales are counted as whole bales.
 The figures for this and neighbor ing counties are as follows.

Modern Idea of 0rea 2ness.

When we ask what it is that we mod ernS deem to constitute greatness among the men of our own or com. paratively recent time, we feel that the standard has somewhat changed, says James Bryce in the Youths Con- panion. We set less store by monarchs, for they do not fill the stage of the world as they once did, although some of them have still large opportunities for doing good or harm. Neither do we give quite such special honor to mili- tary glory as former ages did. Never theless, the essential qualities that dag Sle the eyes of man may be still the same. speak chiefly of the greatness that consists in action, for the ruler, Che statesman and the warrior do their work In the sight of the world and can be judged by 1t, whereas the poet er the philosopher may have long to wait for recognition, and even a su. prone scientific discovery may not be appreciated until long years have been spent in working out its applications All Muddied Up.
 One day new pupil in music set. tlement school came home and asked {: "Nother, how many carrots are there in Q bushel? Teacher wants to know" "WhatT' answered the mother. "What has that to do with music7" ''I don't know." replied the child. The next day the mother went to the music school to inquire what kind of music her child was being taught. The teach. CT laughed and said: "WelL that Is hardly correct. madam. What we asked your child was how many beats there were in a measure"

sDeadr Defendant's Plea.

Judicial skepticism to marked ds. gree is shown In the opinion in Free man. vs. Frank, 10 Abb., Pr.'(N. Y.), 870, in which the court makes the fol. lowing answer:
 "The fact that the defendant has aA- swered, though by attorney. shows he ls neither civilly or physically dead. It is conclusive that he is living, and not under any disability that prevents him defending the action. The defendant, by answering, proves he is alive; and when he ayers in his answer that he is dead. he is not to be believed. The answer. therefore, contains two con- tradictory averments, ono of which h judgment Of law is a fiction. If tho defendant was dead, he could not aH- swer. Hence the averment that he 10 eivilly dead must be deemed untrue"

Historical Precedent

The American Indian of the dime .ovel period practiced camoutlage reg ularly, says the Christian Science Monitor. Frequently he played the role of a bush while stealing up, at nightfall, upon the paleface. Clumps of foliage, 1t will be recalled, were often found by the eagle-eyed hunter to have moved during the night One Buckskin Hank of the Rosebud, on en- tering what he supposed to be a grove of young cottonwoods, found himself surrounded by band of Comanches, who, throwing off their disguise, rushed upop him! At this moment, however, thiee tall oaks hard by fell upon the redskins and rescued him. The tall osa%. it is unnecessary to say, were Ruckskin's trusty companions, who, ssspecting the artifice of the Conan ches, had beaten them at thee own game.

Announcement has just been made
by the Cadillac Motor Car company
that it has acquired. in Detroit nearly
so acres of land, whereon IL will erect
a large plant to house all of its man
ufacturing activities While the pres.
sent Cadillac factory Is recognized
throughout the automobile industry
as being finely equipped motor car
plant, the company's business has out
grown present facilities. 1t is also
desirable TO concentrate all opera
tons of production in one plant. The
land is said to have cost approximate
ly s750,0O0. The plant, not including
equipment. will, 1t is estimated, rep
resent an investment in the neigh
borhood of 100000.
Even in this age of self-starters,
says Motor Print 1--WE are prone to
let our motors run idle to an unneces-
sary degree. On an average we prob
ably waste pint apiece every week.
Figuring that we are 100000 strong,
this amounts to 104 100000 pints
year, or 100000 gallons or $4,000
900 worth of gasolene, at 20 cents q
gallon.
Conserve your gasolene. No mat
ter what the market price may be do
all in your power to see that none Is
wasted"
