THE BEST ENGLISH LOVE sToRYa

From the London Express.
 What is the greatest love story in the world? Of course, if one counted in plays the palm would go to Romeo and Juliet" If put in episodes, most people would go to the Bible or the classics and use the story of Ruth or Dante's poignant picture of Francesca de Rim mi But let us rule these things out and stick to books and English ones at that. What beats "The Cloister and the Hearth?" One correspon- dent says ''Jane Eyre;" another "Lora Doone." We vote for Pride and Prejudice" It is the greatest and most typical of English love stories, because it does not pail one with one of those tremendous passions which almost ex- ceed the bounds of sanity. It is the intensely human tale of love slowly developing through the petty and formal misunderstanding which make up life between two people just as mortal as ourselves.

ENJOYS COUNTRY LIFE

q have never enjoyed anything more than my country place." said Dr. J. T. Coulbourne. 'I have fourteen acres of land and practically all the city convenences. Every night I get the fresh air that the Lord gave us. I feel younger and stronger since I moved out there
 s"Queerest thing in the world to me is this peculiar idea that many of us cannot get out of our heads that, unless we are in the actual smoke of Birmingham, we are isolated. In this day of automobiles there is no such thing as isolation.
 Again, one can be in the country and yet closer to the central part of the city where the offices are than he would be if residing in the furthest off suburbs where noise and jangle of city life would follow. Me for the country life from now on.''

Luck is certainly against me- said Chief of Police Fred fl. McDuff.
 T have just purchased a new, natty chiefs uniform with gold braid, cap and all the trim mings, and old Sol sets overhead and decrees that shall not wear it.

 "The list of republican nominations re- ceived another entrant last week when Charles R. Fay of Pell City entered the race for pro- bate judge. James M. Garrett of Pell City is also candidate for probate judge, sub- ject to the republican convention"
