Rabbi Solomon is one of the most democratic thinkers of the city and it is likely that a large crowd will be present to hear him. ‘The musical part of the program will presentsome’‘of the best talent in the city and this feature of the afternoon bids fair to be also great- ly enjoyed. There will probably be other speakers of note on the program aside from Rabbi solomon, though the committee on urrangements is not yet certain of this.

A woman suffrage plank was recommended to the national convention, which meets in Chica. go August 5, Plans were also put under way for a state convention, when the white league would make very positively. a white convention.

Haywood is pastor, is in the course ‘of erection of a new church edifice on the south side Duffy street between Burroughs and Cuyler. The building which is a wooden structure was begun about eight weeks ago and is now within but a few weeks of completion. The old edifice, which was situated on the same site on which the new Church is being erected, was found to be too small for the rapidly increasing congregation and it was found necessa- ry to rebuild.

Consequently, we will go to Daufuskie, ‘Thursday afternoon, August lath, and invite you to go with us.j Adouat Outing of Mu- tuals Very Enjoyable ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED AND . FIFTY TAKE IN TRIP Ideal Day for Outing—Tickets Were in Great Dem an d— Many Experienced Difficulty Getting to Boat. The annual outing of the Mutual Benevolent Society to Daufuskie was run on last Thursday and was one of the mdst enjoyable treats of the sea son. About four hundred and fifty per- sons took in the trip, enjoying the hos- pitallty of this, one of the oldest and most respectable benevolent associa- tions in the city. The outing was a free, invitational affair, being given solely for the pleas- ure of the members of-the society, their immediate families and friends and, as a consequence, a very select crowd was on hand. A large number of those present were children and they seémed to have had the time of their lives. They in- dulged in all sorts of games on’ the island and made the day one of real mirth and merriment. One of the particulary amusing fes- tures of the outing Nas the baseball game which was played in the after. noon between two teams of “down and outs.” The way their feet got tangled up with each other as they would at- tempt to run, presented a sight that was a sure cure for 2 case of blues. The game, ofcourse, resulted in neither side winning as both sides were ex- hausted and quit almost before the first inning‘had been completed. The day was an ideal one for an outing and every one enjoyed the de- lightful breeze on the island. The only difficulty which many of the picnickers experienced was that of eetting down to the boat as the streat cars were not in operation owing to the disabled condition in which ,the storm had left the service. Therefore, many mothers with small children had a most arduous task in reaching the boat. In order, therefore, that no one should be left, the boat did not depart on schedule time, as it was practically impossile for some who lived great dis- tances from the wharf to make it by 9 o'clock, and yet notwithstanding the fact that the boat was held atthe dock for over an hour over the scheduled sailing time, there were hundreds left who would gladly have been of the number aboard had not the invitations been limited.

National Negro Business League TO MEET IN CHICAGO AU- . GUST 21—23. Attendance Promises To Be Re- cord Brenker—Sessions Will Be Very Interesting—Rail- Roads To Offer Low Rates. Presidents and Secretaries of State Nevro Business Leagues throughout the United States, as well as officers of Local Negro Business Leagues are busily engag- ed arranging for special Pullman, ‘Lourist or Chair Car accommoda- tions for delegates who plan to at- tend the Thirteenth annual meet- ing of the National Negro Business League to be held in Chicago, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 2ist, 22nd and 93rd, 1912. Tt has been found that the Pass- jenger Agents of the railroads are disposed to heartily co-operate in making such arrangements for delegates. The following recom- mendations ar¢ made for the bene- fit of those who have not already made plans for their state or local delegations. Inalleases make the special Pullman or Tourist Car party w personally conducted af- fair. Select the most attractive route for the going trip to Chiengzo to arouse interest among the dele- gates. Start early enough to per- mit stop-overs at points of interest en-route. The onein charge of the party should make a careful study of points of interest that he may in his correspondence, advertising and on the trip speak with authori- ty. |" “Get the active co-operation of all the railroads and especially of the initial line inyourstate. When you have decided upon the route, write (or better, see personally) the General Passanger Agent of that particular railway. Tell him you will undertake the work of secur- ing a special car party to the Chicago meeting, if you have pos- itive assurance of his active co-op- eration onthe lines: (a) The rail- road to furnish full information to all prospective members of the parties giving data covering itiner- ary and points of interest en route to Chicago. (b) The railroad to circulate this information and itin- erary with your co-operation amoug the members of your local or state league. (c) The railroad to advertise the special Pullman or Tourist Car party in all the Negro newspapers of the state. .(d) The railroad to send- instrucfions to its agents throughout your state to carry out the active canvas for members for party, with your co- {operation. Persons intending to organize such Pullman or Tourist Car parties are urged to keep the Corresponding Secretary, Emmett J. Scott, Tuskegee, Institute, Ala- bama, in closé touch with their plans, so that hé may assist in bringing parties in the same terri- tory together. Attention to this request will be cordially apprecia- ted.- It will faciliate the whole movement, Delegates intending to be pres- ent should send early notice of such intention to S. J. Evans, Chairman, Committee on Homes, 41% East 42nd Place, Chicago, Ill- inois. Mr, Evans and his com; mittee will assign these various delegations in accordance with such instructions as may be sent them. * The Chicago Negro Business League in planning for the social entertainment of the delegates has arranged an Automobile Tour of the city, taking in the various points of interest, the monster business houses, the Board of ‘Trade and other places: also for a Boat Excursion on Lake Michigan in honor of the delegates, and a Banquet at the Seventh Regiment. Armory on the last evening of the |Convention. In addition to these social features which have been ar- ranged for entertainment of the delegates, entertainments are also being arranged for at the various clubs of the city: a reception in honor of ‘the wives of the delegates promises to be tho erent of the meeting- ‘The daily sessions of the League will Ee held in the Pekin Theatre, 27th and State streets. The pro- gram for the meetine will be is- Our Father's Teraphim A Sermon And Rachel stole the teraphim that were her father's.—Genesis, 31:19. In her sudden flight Rachel had stolen her father's terapim, images, or gods. The act was in itself dishonest and necessitated falsehood and deception to conceal it. And yet we must recognize, though the end sought for never justifies the use of unlawful means, that the theft proceeded from a laudable desire. It might be said that her craftiness induced her to deprive her father of this important aid in divining the fugitives' whereabouts and effecting a successful pursuit. Her cupidity may have suggested that through the possession of her father's images she might secure the accompanying prosperity. But along with and over and above such base motives must have been the thought that in the new home in the strange land to which she was going there might be the need of something to keep her in touch with the old religious life—some outward and visible sign or symbol of the god or gods she had worshiped and served. After all she was but half heathen, saturated with superstition, and these terapim were the very signs and symbols of her spiritual life and the means of strength and guidance, and she longed to possess them. Our heavenly father, it is true, seeketh such as will worship him in spirit and in truth. Not in Jerusalem nor in Gerazim is God to be worshiped, but is to be found of all who seek him. He dwelteth not in temples made with hands, but in the believer's heart. Sacraments are but means of grace. Signs and symbols are only valuable and helpful because of what they represent. But so long as man is man there will be the need for these outward and visible forms of the deeper spiritual verities. We are so constituted that we will, until this mortal puts on immortality, need our houses of God, our sacraments and other means of grace. Rites and ceremonies, signs and symbols will ever have their place in the religious life of man. These things mean much to us and we do well to value them highly. When James I. of England sought the hand of the infanta of Spain for his son Charles, being of different households of faith, the consent of the pope was refused until satisfactory assurance was given that she would be allowed to worship God according to the customs of her fathers—that she be permitted to carry with her priest, altar, mass and all that represented and made up her religious life. The puritan feeing to the land of liberty carried with him his open Bible and distinctive religious beliefs and is today usually portrayed with that Bible under his arm or the psalter in his hand. In the days of the commonwealth, when the Puritan was in the ascendancy, the churchman was proscribed and forced into hiding. But he carried with him his prayer book and, forbidden though it was, worshiped God according to its formularies. Men do not lightly forsake their beliefs and traditions and we are what we are largely because we have inherited "our fathers' gods." Church and sacraments, rites and ceremonies, signs and symbols, creeds and confessions of faith, all have a part, and a very large one, in our religious life, and for all they represent to us, for the help they impart, for the love we bear them and the veneration we feel for them, we do well to take with us through life these our fathers' teraphim. It may be possible for one to become so spiritual, so superior to the material that no need is felt for ritual or ceremonial to appeal to the eye or ear. But most of us need these teraphim—outward and visible agencies through which we both learn of God and receive strength from him. The ministry of the old church in the new land, the familiar sights and sounds of ritual and ceremonial have saved many an immigrant from the homelessness which was proving well-nigh unendurable. Though far from home and surrounded by strangers, he is not alone—he has found his household of faith, he has not left his father's God behind. The developer of real estate recognizes this desire to carry one's religious life to the new home and offers favorable terms to the congregation seeking a site for a church building, while the homeseeker looks favorably upon the development which offers him a spiritual home after the manner of his fathers. During these summer months, when thousands seeking pleasure and rest for mind and body will turn to the mountains, the seashore or country, how many will carry their teraphy to these temporary homes? Will the nearness to church be taken into consideration in the making of plans? Is it not true that many leave behind the accustomed aids to their religious life and neglect the outward manifestations of the faith that is within them? The Bible is forgotten, or if taken is left in the trunk. All devotional reading is neglected. Diversions are many, and the ordinary routine of life is changed. Consequently family prayers are practically impossible, but the individual morning prayers are omitted or hurried through. And we make no secret of the fact that we desire a "rest" from the accustomed spiritual life. Attendance upon divine service, a pleasure and means of grace at home, becomes a "duty" when on a vacation, and we have promised ourselves that during our holiday we shall be free to do only what we desire. And more than that, we are away from home seeking recreation, amusement and diversion—the old manner of life is laid aside and many things are done and left undone at variance with our accustomed habits. "No one will notice it." "I am only a stranger here and my actions can influence no one." The professional man can lay aside all thought of client or patient and after a month or two return to his work the better for the rest, but it is not so with religion. "There is no discharge in that war." It is always "watch and fight and pray." The Christian is always on duty. Failure to attend church, the neglect of prayer and the various means of grace, the doing of things inexpedient (even if not unlawful), the lowering of the standard even for a few weeks, must prove harmful to the best of us. The vacation will prove as helpful; we will derive as much real enjoyment if we carry our teraphim with us and give ah hour for church on Sunday, a few minutes daily for our devotions, make some effort to help others, and always strive to remember that our religious life should be as real away from as at home. It is the experience of many a country minister that "summer boarders" are frequently a positive injury to church work. Many will not attend service (they are in the country for a "rest"), and meeting their needs and demands make it impossible for their hosts to do so. So it is with many summer residents in country or suburbs. Though regular attendants at church the rest of the year, though zealous in good works at other times, late rising, Sunday guests, amusements of various kinds effectually prevent church-going, and the country church, the chapel in mountain or by the seashore lose the help and stimulus that could be given and also suffer positive injury from the example of indifference to things spiritual. The manner of life of the men and women who stand high in the professional, literary or social world at home is noted and commented upon and has an influence far beyond what is realized. The habit of imitation is great, footsteps are being followed, although the one who made them hears not nor sees those behind. We do not need to take our teraphy with us on our vacations to enable us to so live that while seeking rest and health for mind and body we do not injure or weaken our own souls nor cast stumbling blocks in the pathway of others.—Edward T. Helfenstein, Rector St. John's Church, Howard county, Maryland. SOME PROGRESS OF THE & RACE SINCE FREEDOM Forty-seven years ago the colored people of Texas received news of their emancipation. At that time they hardly possessed their own clothes to wear. Today in Texas the colored people's holdings represent in value close to thirty millions of dollars. Forty-seven years ago there were hardly 5,000 colored people in Texas; today their population is over 800,000 (eight hundred thousand), having nearly 200,000 children of scholastic age, twenty institutions of learning, representing a value of about two millions of dollars, with a total yearly attendance of over 6,000. Over two-thirds of the colored people in Texas live in the country, where the farms are productive. Nearly 100,000 farms are owned by colored people in Texas, with a value of over eighteen million dollars. Colored labor is also a great factor in the state's progress, from the Red river to the gulf and from the Sabine to the Rio Grande. The above are some things for which the race in Texas should feel proud of on the nineteenth of June; and it is to be hoped that all over this state the celebration be elevated to the occasion. In the whole United States the race has grown from four millions of people to tens of millions, representing a total wealth of nearly one billion dollars. In Galveston the population is close to 9,000, the total wealth being estimated now at over $600,000. There are about 100 colored people engaged in various business enterprises, etc., representing about $75,000 in investment. Over 200 homes owned in Galveston, three public schools and one Catholic school. Close to 2,000 colored men work on the Galveston wharf front during the busy season. RICHEST SODA DEPOSITS. Soda lake, situated at Magadi, British East Africa, is one of the richest soda deposits in the world, covering an area of more than 18 square miles and containing a quantity of soda estimated at 200,000,000 tons. As fast as the blocks of soda are removed from the surface the places fill again, and the natives claim that it is possible to work continually the same position for several consecutive years. With the primitive tools at hand the lake has been sounded to a depth of about nine feet and nothing but crystallized soda found. It is said that an English company with a capital of £1,600,000 will begin to exploit the deposit as soon as the Uganda railway reaches the district. HERRINGS AS FERTILIZER JAPAN. In Japan about 4,000,000 tons of herrings are caught every year. This enormous quantity is not by any means entirely used for human consumption. In fact, about four-fifths of the entire quantity is used as organic fertilizer for the rice fields. PRACTICAL WORK AT TUSKEGEE HAS TREMENOUS INFLUENCE IN THE SOUTHERN STATES. PRACTICAL WORK AT TUSKEGEE HAS TREMENOUS INFLUENCE IN THE SOUTHERN STATES. By ARTHUR M. EVANS. Tuskegee, Ala.-Macon county affords a tangible illustration of the way Tuskegee is constantly expanding its zone of influence. For years the work of the institute has reached far beyond the school grounds, each year bringing new ramifications, until today Tuskegee is conducting an extension work of twenty-six varieties that has two general alms—to change public opinion and direct attention to lines of industry that offer most opportunities for the colored people of the south and to educate the people in better methods of farming and so induce the children of negro farmers to remain on the soil. An idea of the scope of this work may best be given by a list of the extension activities, with the dates of establishment: 1884—Teacher's Institute. 1891—Annual Tuskegee negro conference. 1892—The Hospital, Greenwood Village. 1893—The ministers' night school. 1894—Tuskegee town mothers' meeting. 1895—Building and loan association. 1896—The town night school. 1897—The town library and reading room; town cooking class; Russell plantation work; Farmers' Institute; mothers' clubs. 1898—The county fair; the town Y. M. C. A.; the town Sunday school. 1900—The National Negro Business League. 1901—New hospital building—treatment of outside patients becomes a regular feature at Tuskegee. 1902—Village Improvement association. 1904—The jail work; the farmers' short course; rural school improvement. 1905—The weekly farm paper; the Ministers' Institute; the circulating library. 1906—The Jesup agricultural wagon—an agricultural school on wheels. 1907—Farmers' co-operative demonstration work. Macon county, in which Tuskegee is located, is one of the most prosperous and law-abiding in the south. It contains about 100 square miles and has a population of about 26,000, of which about 24,000 are negroes. It is constantly growing, due to the attractions afforded by its schools and by the assistance in farming methods given by Tuskegee Institute. The influence of the school is seen everywhere, particularly in the well-to-do condition of the negro farmers. Macon county is said to have a larger area of land held by negroes than any other county in the south. In 1910 negroes owned 61,689 acres in Macon. In Liberty county, Georgia, the next largest in negro land holdings, the area was 55,048, while in Louisa county, Virginia, the third county in this respect, the colored population owned 53,268 acres. In Macon county there is no race problem—the negro population, through the industrial education of Tuskegee, has become self-reliant. The county has fifty-seven colored public schools, of which forty-seven have been built through the old and assistance of Tuskegee Institute, and the negro patrons have paid for buildings and equipment $15,065, an unusual amount for one county in the south. The colored rural schools of the county are of a unique type and they demonstrate the intensely practical nature of Tuskegee methods, which are based on the idea that any education that cannot be put to practical use is not the real thing. The school at "Rising Star" is an example of the new type of school. It consists of a five-room frame house, in which the teachers—a· Tuskegee graduate and his, wife—not only teach but live. All the rooms are used by the school children. In the kitchen they are taught to cook; in the dining room, to serve a meal; in the bedroom, how to make the beds. In the garden they are taught how to raise vegetables, to raise poultry, to rear pigs and cows. They recite in the sitting room or on the veranda, and their lessons all deal with matters of their own every-day life. Little problems in arithmetic are given local color; lessons in English are given a familiar atmosphere. Instead of figuring how long it would take an express train to reach the moon if it traveled at the rate of forty miles an hour, the pupils figure out how much corn can be raised on Neighbor Smith's patch of land and how much Farmer Jones' plg will bring when slaughtered. The pupils learn neatness and cleanliness by living in a decent home during their school hours. They carry the lesson home, and the result is seen in cleaner and better farmhouses. The model schoolhouse has become the pattern on which the farmers and their wives are improving their homes. There are some fifty such schools in the county, and each is a center from which radiate the Tuskegee ideas. Among the negroes the church is the most potent organization, and Booker Washington has taken advantage of this fact by influencing nearly every church community in Macon county to become a modern school community. In various ways the school is teaching the farmers to increase the productivity of their lands, the principle underlying the system identical with the one that is the basis of Tuskegee's labors—learning and teaching by doing and seeing. The annual negro conference was started eighteen years ago, when Mr. Washington sent out invitations to about seventy-five representative negroes in Macon county, farmers, mechanics, school teachers and ministers. Instead of seventy-five, about 400, most of them farmers, responded to the invitation, and the conference met with such success that it was made an annual feture, negro farmers from all parts of the south attending. The school employs a conference agent, who organizes local conferences in all parts of the state. The growth of this work is seen in the fact that 105 of these branch organizations have been established. Eight years ago a short course in agriculture was started with a view of giving farmers in the neighboring territory the advantage of two weeks' study of the work at the school farm. The first year there were eleven students, most of them older men; in 1911 there were 1,900, about 1,000 of them being young men and women. A year after the short course had been established the school launched a movement to take agricultural education to the farmers by means of a school on wheels, the Jesup agricultural wagon. The practical demonstrations, given right on the farms by the men in charge of the wagons has been of great value in raising the standard of farming in Macon county. In 1907 the demonstration farming experiment, a work carried on by the department of agriculture at Washington, was started. Under this plan a number of farmers in a county farm a small portion of their land under the direction of the department, using seed furnished by the department. Of the six negro demonstration agents in Alabama, four were trained at Tuskegee, as was also the district agent who has charge of the work among the negroes in Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Louisiana. An idea of what the demonstration agents have done for the negro farmer may be seen from the fact, that in 1909 the average yield of, corn per acre for negro farmers was less than eight bushels. Last year negro demonstration farmers in Macon county grew an average of 54 bushels to the acre. In 1911 the average yield of cotton in Alabama was about 600 pounds per acre. The highest average yield made on farms managed under a negro demonstration agent was in Lee county, where an average of 1,876 pounds of cotton to the acre was raised. This was more than 1,200 pounds per acre in excess of what was grown on the average farm of the state. The last census figures gave an indication of how the influence of Tuskegee ramifies beyond the school gates. The census showed that while the counties in the black belt were losing in population, Macon had made an increase of more than 10 per cent. New negro families are continually coming into Macon—in five years 50 families bought $49,000 worth of land, in 1910 negro farmers in the county bought 1,450 acres at a cost of $21,335, an indication of the prosperity. Macon county today is not only prosperous, but it has so little crime that the sheriff complains of enforced idleness; it has no mob violence, no race problem; the white population co-operates with Tuskegee and with the negro farmers in the development of agricultural methods, and the county is regarded as a model. The movement of the southern negro to the soil is evidenced in the fact that in the last ten years the colored people have bought 4,000 additional farms in Virginia, 4,000 in Tennessee, 16,000 in Arkansas, 35,000 in Mississippi and 45,000 in Georgia. No article on Tuskegee would be complete that did not mention the music at the school, the wonderful singing in the chapel, in which the student body is led by a choir of 150 voices, a pipe organ, a piano and an orchestra of 25 pieces. Special effort is made to preserve the old negro hymns and plantation melodies, orchestrations for which have been made with great skill by the bandmaster, Capt. N. C. Smith, who for nearly 20 years was leader of the Eighth Regiment band in Chicago. Forty-seven students are in the band, which furnishes music for all occasions, and the surprising phrase of the playing is the manner in which the students render classic music from the great operas. The leader drills the players in the story of the opera, telling them what every musical phrase means, before rehearsals are started, and with this as an inspiration the Tuskegee band plays almost as if it were composed of virtuos. MASCOT JEWELRY. She who has money to afford novelties should go in for mascot jewelry. Never has it been more fascinating. Even if you are not superstitious you are not above a luck charm of some sort. A safety pin brooch, with a stone in the center, has attached to it by a thin, short chain a lucky tortoise in gold or enamel. The mascot can be further enhanced by using one's birth stone. Another mascot is a charm in the sign of the zodiac for your birth month. These come in gold or silver or may be studded with your birth stone. Another mascot is a charm in the sign of the zodiac for your birth month. These come in gold or silver or may be studded with your birth stone. Another bracelet of gold or silver wire-can have attached to it various lucky charms, as the lucky finger in ivory, a luck penny, a tiny rabbit's foot and horseshoe, and a minute blue bird for happiness as well as safety. The Sunday School Lesson SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR JULY 28, 1912. THE WHEAT AND THE TARES. Golden Text—Gather ye together first the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn. Matt. 13: 30. Lesson Text—Matt. 13:24-30, 36-43. Commit vs. 37-39. Time—Autumn A. D. 28. Place— By the Sea of Galllee, near Capernaum. Exposition—I. Two Sowers, 24, 25. Here, as in the preceding parable, Jesus appears as a sow of good seed; but in the preceding parable "the seed is the Word of God"; in this parable "the good seed are the sons of the kingdom" (v. 38). But the sons of the kingdom are themselves the product of the Word of God (Jas. 1:18; I Pe. 1:23); so there is a close connection between the two parables and the two sowings. It is by sowing "the Word of God" that the Son of man sows "sons of the kingdom." There are in this world "sons of the kingdom" only because Jesus has sown them. The world is "His field." He has purchased it by His blood; the devil has forfeited it by his unfailfulness, but the devil does not like to relinquish the world of which he was once the prince (Jno. 12: 31). But the world belongs to Christ, "the sons of the evil one" are sown in it, and when the harvest comes they will be gathered out and sent to their own place. There is deep significance in two words in v. 25, "his enemy." The devil is our enemy, but he is primarily Christ's enemy. There is no one whom he hates as he hates the Son of God. Christ receives what the devil aspired to, the worship of the universe (Heb. 1: 6; Rev. 5: 11-13; comp. Matt. 4: 9; Ez. 28: 16, 17). The devil seeks to caricature and thwart Christ's work at every step. Christ sows good seed in His field, the devil will be stealth and sowes tares. The parable brings out very clearly the personality of the devil, the certainty of his existence, the malignity of his heart, the activity of his movements, the cunning of his operations, the subtlety of his methods. If there is not a personal devil, the enemy of Christ, this parable is meaningless. There is absolutely no necessity in the drapery of the parable t. bring him in. He is in the parable because he exists in fact. The tares in the world are his work. Christ sows "sons of the kingdom" by sowing good seed, "the Word of God"; the devil sows "sons of the evil one" by sowing bad seed, doubts and questions and error (Gen. 3: 1, 4; 2 Thess. 2: 9, 10). The devil did his work "while men slept." He always acts under cover and while men are off guard. He does much of his work today while Christians and ministers are dozing. He brings in the subtleties of disguised infidelity ("higher criticism," etc.) and masked pantheism ("Christian Science," etc.) while we are nodding, and some day we wake up to find the "tares" springing up everywhere among the wheat. When the devil had done his work he "went away." He got out of sight. He always does. He even stirs up some to argue that "there isn't any devil anyway." II. Two Crops Growing Together, 26-29—There are just two classes of men: "Sons of the kingdom," or "children of God," and "sons of the evil one" (v. 38 R. V.), or "children of the devil" (I Jno 3: 10). The two classes are not always distinguishable or separable at the outset (vs. 29, 30), but they will be distinguished and separated when they are ripe, the one for heaven and the other for hell. But it will fortunately be the angels and not men who do the separating (v. 41). History furnishes countless instances of the devil's sowing tares among Christ's wheat (e. g., Jno. 13: 2; Acts 5: 3; 20: 29). Both history and the Word of God warn us against deciding that all that appears "among the wheat" must itself be wheat. While the tares were not distinguishable from the wheat until they began to grow, they were tares from the very first. There were those who wished to root up the tares at once, but the time was not ripe, nor were they competent to d- the task. There are those who in hustle long, to extirpate "the sons of the evil one" at once from the world, but the Master says, "Let them both grow together until the harvest." Premature separation, by religious persecution, would mean to tare as well as destruction to tares. This parable does not forbid church discipline. "The field is"—not the church, but "the world" (v. 38). Church discipline is positively commanded in the Bible (1 Cor. 5:3-5; 2 Ro. 16: 17; 2 Thess. 3: 6, 14). In the delay in separating the chaff from the wheat, we have another illustration of God's long suffering (cf. 2 Peter 3: 9). III. Two Harvests, 30, 35, 36-41. Separation comes at last. It is "in the end of the age" (v. 39 R. V., Marz) "The reapers are the angels." They are to be the ministers of God's boundless grace towards "the sons of the kingdom" and the executioners of His wrath towards "the sons of the evil one." The tares are to be "gathered" and the wheat is to be "gathered," but the one for burning in "the furnace of fire," where there is incomsolable grief and impotent rage (v. 42), the other into God's storehouse, "the kingdom of their Father," where "they shall shine forth as the sun." Is the fire literal? It is in the interpretation of the parable as well as in the parable itself. Evil is not to gradually disappear from the world, but to grow side by side with the wheat "until the harvest." Leading Questions—What does this lesson teach about Jesus Christ? The devil? Angels? The destiny of the righteous? The wicked? What is the best lesson? POETRY of and by Our People If we could know Which of us, darling, would be first to go; Who would be first to breast the swelling tide And step alone upon the other side— If we could; know! If it were you Should I walk softly, keeping death in view? Should I my love to you more oft express? Or should I grieve you, darling, any less— If it were you? If it were I Should I improve the moments slipping by? Should I more closely follow God's great plan. Be filled with sweeter charity to man— If it were I? If we could know! We cannot, darling, and 'tis better so, I should forget; just as I do today. And walk along the same old stumbling If I could know. I would not know Which of us, darling, will be first to go. I only wish the space may not be long Between the parting and the greeting long. But when or where or how we're called to go— I would not know. —Every Saturday. The sweetest thoughts of Jesus Come stealing o'er my soul. Both in the midnight watches And when the sun doth roll; They lead me down the ages, By storm-tossed Galllee. And I see Time's greatest Teacher As he walks beside the sea. I see the throngs before him Hang breathless upon his word; For never truths so golden Before on earth were heard; I see the world's dark sorrows Feeling before his face, And sodden. sin-cursed people Are healed and saved by grace. O wondrous, living Presence, Forever by my side; I love thy promise, "With thee I'll ever abide. And to thy fond remembrance These things I'll bring again. How I have wrought and suffered To save the race of men!" O blessed Holy Spirit, Though dark waves round me roll, I feel thine inward presence In chambers of my soul; And always I am ready, Earth dawn to lay For just that sweet abliding For ever and a day! -Douglas Dobblins. SOLITUDE. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone. For sad old earth must borrow its mirth It has troubles enough of its own. Sing and the hills will answer; Sigh and it's lost on the air The echoes rebound to joyful sound, But shirk from voicing care. Rejoice and men will seek your; Grieve and they turn and go. They want full measure of all your pleasure. But they do not want your woe. Be glad and your friends are many: Be sad and you lose them all There is none to decline your nectared wine. But alone you must drink the gall. Forest and your halls are crowded; Fast and the world goes by. Success and give and it helps you to live. But no man can help you to die. There is room in the halls of pleasure For a large and lordly train, But one by one we must all file on Through the narrow slates of pain. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. DAWN. Into the darkness comes the day. But not with sudden burst of splendor; The shadows are slowly driven away By torches of light that are faint and tender; At first just a flush on the eastern sky— The perfect day cometh by and by. So to soul-darkness comes the day: The shadows of doubt and uncertainty linger. But slowly and surely they pass away Under the touch of faith's gentle finger. O, walk with hope in the light thou hast— To the perfect day thou shalt come at last —E\change. RIPENING CHEESE BY ELEC- TRICITY. One of the most recent applications of electricity which has come to our notice is that for ripening cheese, says the Scientific American. The use of electricity for maturing various articles of consumption, such as wines and alcoholic liquors, is not new, but Mr. Gokkes' method of applying an alternating current of two amperes and 10,000 volts for the purpose of ripening cheese appears to be so. The treatment, as described in Cosos, is continued for 24 hours, and is said to effect in this short time a complete ripening of the cheese. TEMPERATURE OF THE EARTH. The temperature increases about 1 degree for every 60 feet as we penetrate into the interior of the earth. OF Interest to Our Women FASHION NOTES. A striking gown just exhibited fs, of silver-gray satin charmeuse, It has a beautiful overdress of ninon in Chel- sea-china green edged with a ‘fiat ruche of green silk shot with laven- der, The yoke and sleeves are of per- fectly plain seamless gray satin. Round the body, beneath the green ninon, is a corselet, shaped like medie- val armor, of silk arranged in equal stripes of black and white. This Is eatremely effective The yoke and sleeves are finished with frills of gray net edged with a narrow band of green. A gray straw hat accompanied the dress, It wag in a bdecoming turnedup shape rather of thé Cava- lier period, and was Hed with plait- ed green and lavender shot silk with a plain vorder, which gives almost the effect of a different shade. Black lace was never so fashionable as at prezent, and, combined with Black satin chifton, makes up most charmingly. The present fashion of putting white net or lace under the Black Is much more becoming than the all black, and 1s very cleverly done, because It 13 not necessary to have !t excepting about the neck or fn the sleeves, thus making It more practical, if the economy point of view ts being considered. Black chif- fon over white lace 1s one of the fa- vorite trimmings, for the black gown. An afternoon grown that can also do duty for theater {f the yoke and col- lar are taken out has sleeves, and the upper part of the waist of white lace covered with black. This, as can easily be understood, 1s becoming, _and so new that an old gown can be quite remodeled ff trimmed according to this style. Another new and ef- fective trimming this season {s the Bas band of soft satin or chiffon or the hemstitched edge of the plain chif- fon, At one time this was relegated to mourning, but it has proved so be coming that ft has been taken as trimming for. every gown, with the difference that when not Intended for mourning the chiffon {s put over white lace Instead of over white chif- fon. It 4s very interesting to’notice how some Ittle touch like this will change the gown entirely The reversible satin wraps are stun- ning with thelr effective color con- trasts, and these wraps, though less elaborate In trimming than the taffeta models, have a dignity and grace that _commend them to conservative wom- en, Black satin, with a‘Teverce of gold, makes a tery handsome wrap of this sort which may be worn through the street over a bridge gown in the afternoon. if the occasion requires, as well as serving as a correct evening wrap, These reversible satin wraps are usually black on the outer side, with cerise, maize, chamols, hyacinth, or emerald as 2 lning color: and the wrap {s draped so that the gay color on the reverse side chows in turned- Wack revers and at the lower edge as the draped or cutaway front of the wrap falls Into graceful folds at ev- ery movement of the wearer, Brocaded silks and crapes are much | ucel for evening wraps by the French costumers this summer, one leader especially favoring this soft, brocaded stuff fer bis wonderful ‘draped wraps. Tille, a golden mustard shade, peacock blue and dregs of wine are the favored colorings for such wraps, and the long lines. straight at the back from neck to heel and much draped up in front, are ex- ceedingly graceful. The ratine weaves 2re also liked; and a khaki-colored ratine weave trimmed with black satin makes a most effective wrap. A wide range of colors is in vogue just now, to sult diverse tastes. Vio-' let and pink alone and combined, Dive gray In the same way, light charining greens, deep pinks for eve- ning Wear, any amount of black and white, much black alone, and much white alone, that Is what we ehall be wearing for months.

It fs plain or gathered, and of contrasting material, and.is generally becoming to models with or without collars. MODES FOR THE HAPPY. Every one knows how easy it fs to Joox well—even — distinguished—n mourning, Black, applied to the ‘hu- man being 1s a refiner; but the tints of the rainbow—which It seems, are to be in high favor this summer—are much more difficult to combine with the average countenance and the av- erage form. High spirits are necessary to cer- tain colors, such as rose. yellow, or grass green; the more pensive puces and purples, lavenders and blues may he assumed when the vitality is lower ane the outlook of life is a trifle pessi- mistic, The effect which has been aimed at of late, of gorgeous sunsets dimmed by clouds, 1s 2 compromise of essen- tially modern origin. It synthetizes the ends wo aim at in dress, to ex- Press moods and emotions, as well as the needs and activities of the hour. The prudent woman with the lean peree does not Invest her all in a hat ot so trlumphantly gay a trimming that she cannot put ft on when she 1s fatigued or sad. If, che can buy one, At must be sober of ontline and suited to all mooés, There are many fash- fons for the young and happy, but it requires tact and ‘experience to know when to seek their aid. FIVE-MINUTE CHATS WITH HOUSEKEEPERS Perhaps oné of the greatest trials of the young and inexperienced house wife is the weekly struggle over the various tradesmen’s bills, which al- most without exception, seem to come to considerably more than the sum on which she had reckoned. The first great point fs, whenever possible, to insist on the* bills being settled week- ly, for otherwise, {f once the young mistress falls behind, it {6 almost Im- possible for her to extricate herself and get her accounts straight again. Besides, {t 1s s0 very much more stmple to keep a check on things if the bills are paid up weekly, for if a mistake bas been allowed to run for a month unnoticed, it {s much more difficult to prove It. Of couree, in the case where a store cupboard is available, it is better to lay in a monthly supply of certain commodi- ties which keep perfectly well; but, apart from that, it 1s best to begin with the principle of a weekly reckon- Ing and adhere to it. Now, elthough the young housewlfe mxy start with a very tolerable knowl- edge of how meat can be cut up and the prices of the different parts, It by no means follows that she thoroughly realizes the average allowances of the different things required in the way of food for a household, and she would therefore do well to make a point of learning this, and then she can see for herself whether the weekly bills are fair or not. For instance, she must have some {dea“of the average amount of butter required for the ordinary Kind of sauces, cakes, etc, and also see that dripping is properly clarified and used for frying. « Unless shz knows these things Jt will be difficult for her to put her fin- ger on the extravagance, for the cook who sees her mistress has no knowl edge of these points is very apt, being human, to put the consumption of ex- tra butter and such like things down to these causes, and the mistrers, knowing nothing of what 1s required in the way, willbe unable to contra- dict her. 2 7, ‘The meat question is often a vexed one, for the amount consumed seems often so entirely out of proportion to the presumed appetites of the house- hold, and yet apparently the meat is eaten. The housekeeper, however, may be quite certain that anything over one pound of meat dally a head is wanton waste,and for the mcst part half a pound to three-quarters of. a pound a head daily {s ample, especial- ly if the household fs composed of more than five people. | All orders should be entered in a book kept by the mistress, and the bills sent by’ the various tradesmen curefully preserved and compared with the book when sent in at the be ginning of the week. “Some butchers are over fond of sending more mcat than is desired, and if this little idio- syncrasy Is allowed to pass unnoticed ({ may mount up at the end of the week. Then, too, the meat will often be badly cut and the inferior purts sent. Therefore when repeatedly more meat comes from the butcher than has been ordered the tradesman’s at- tention should be called to this and the point made clear by the mistress that she knows what she wants and Intends to have that sent, and not what the butcher chooses to send her. There 1s no doubt that it 1s the house- keeper who knows exactly what she requires, and shows that she intends having ft, who invariably ts the best treated, for the tradesman soon real- wes when it {6 worth while giving his best attention to a customer. EMBROIDERED SASHES. With the return of the directoire fashlons comes the inevitable sash. Most women will welcome this fact, for sashes greatly improve any frocks with which they are worn. Black velvet or satin is the material most favored for the sach-girdle. The wide watst belt 1s formed of soft folds. The long sash ends are of odd lengths, falling from the side or back of the dress. These ends may be embroidered with plain black, or fn colors, using an Arabian design.

The kind words, encouragement and,genuine 10- terest in this movement by the white people in this movement by the white ‘People of Atlanta has given renewed strength to the workers. The negro women of our city have faith. They believe that all the wom- en acting as one will Influence their young people to be good and true, and also put to fiight for all time the slayers of their women. Cocaine is another flend more dangerous, but not 60 quick, as it is afd to require about five years for Its victims to overtake death. One authority says: “This new vice, the cocaine vice, the most Serious that has to be dealt with, has proved to be a creator, of ériminals and unusual forms of_violence.” Yet nether our natlonal nor state gov- ernment restricts the importation of this soul-destroying drug. Through Rev. H. H. Proctor, pastor of the First Congregatidual church, the negro women of this city bave In that church a place to meet at all times to discuss and plan ways to better their condition. As a result of these meetings during the fall of 1911 we are doing foundation work, which 4s the keynote to all our en- deavors. We have a class in domestic sclence under an experienced instruc- tor. All women and girls who ate unable to pay for lessons will be taught free, provided they are fitting themselves to make a living. Any one that knows anything about domestic sclence can understand how valuable this training makes a person, not only in the kitchen, but in the sick ‘room and amofg the children. . A woman thoroughly trained in do- mestic science {s a treasure in her own home or in the home of others. Children’s classes in sewing, mending and darning are conducted every afternoon from 3 to 4 o'clock. These classes are taught by the women of the clty who desire to give an hour of service once a week to God and bu- manity. These little people are taught ‘to mend and darn thelr own clothing. This work is not a task, but-very much Ike a kindergarten of older children. In this way all mending and darning fs taken from the mother's hands, which fs quite an {tem in a home where there are children, and the mother works for others every day in the week, Classes of amail boys are taught street etiquette. electric. car deportment and good be- havior fn geveral. The parents of all these children work for’white familles in this city. . The only way to know a people ts to go among them. not once, but often. Many of our good women live in at leys and other sections of the city not £0 good. Some of these women are beautiful laundresses, others are cooks and housematds. These women are rearing their children as well as they can, Thelr children attend our public echools, also Sabbath school. As these women work for the white familles of Atlanta, they must Ive near the heart of the clty and the alfey is the.only place for these wom- en to live, who would live In a more respectable locality ff they could. Here one will find true philanthropy. ‘They will divide the last bite of bread and give their clothing to those among them in need. All thoughtful negroes and those who keep up with cusrent events ap- preciate the south's burden. The great work she is doing and fs still plan- ning and organizing to better condt- tions among white people. Payne In- stitute, at Augusta, for the educatfon of preachers and teachers for the ne- gro; the splendid public schools for our children. givjag employnient to thousands of our young women as teachers, are one of our greatest alds to race building. However. there are conditions ex- isting In this clty which are of vital importance to both races. We are working to help the Women. but our progress is handicapped by the unsan- itary conditions in a large number of thelr homes. Many negro familles live in small houses close together, having a common yard. To get into these homes, whose yards are a net- work of clothes lines filled with snowy-white clothes, one has to stop,, could be kept away from the camp and slush, - We hope to establish a day nursery in these congested communities, but we are not able to do so without outside ald. We ask all lovers of God and humanity to nveet & Ittle money for him at the bottom of the ladder, where co may of his creatures dwell, who are never blessed with tho glad sunlight of sweet, clean homes. Help us to save our children and we Will save yours through our im- proved health and better sanitation in our homes. Respectfully, ANNA M. TATE, Chairman. nomic Condition of Negroes in the North,” in the Southern Workman, Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr, the editor of the Christian Recorder, presents some statistics and conclustons worthy the thoughtful consideration of the read- ers of The Age, and especially the negro preachers, sejtlement - workers and others engaged in negro uplift Work In the North and Western states. Some of Dr. Wright's conclusions are very startling and disconcerting; such, for instance, as that “Until recently the negroes of the North did not re- produce themselves; the great in- crease of negroes In the large cities was due chiefly to immigration from the South. To an extent, it is true today that the chief source of in- crease of the northern negro popula- tion fs the immigration of negroes. More than half the negroes in the cit- fes of the North today were born in the South.” He finds that records of births among negroes are very difficult to obtain, and “even now most of the clt- tes would report an excess of deaths over births {f they reforted anything” In Philadelphia, where separate rec- ords of births and deaths have been kept since 1900, with a fair degree of accuracy, a table is given showing the results for nine years. In 1909, 1901 and 1902 there were 420, and again in 1908 144 more deaths’ than births. For the fire other years the excess of births over deaths was only 1,632, the total excess for the nine years belng 1,262 in favor of births, The bureau of vital statistics {s of the opinion, however, that many negro birtks are not reported. However this may be, Wright concludes that “it is probable ‘that the principal Increase of the’ ne- Sro population ts due to tie births among the immigrant negroes from the South, rather than to tee native-born northern negroes, and that in reality the native-born negro does not repro- duce himself"; that is, does net per- petuate hunself, Our observation in New York for 93 years is that families peter out in the male line, leaving one or two healthy members, or become lost in the third and fourth generations. In this Way most of the family names of old New Yorkers have been wiped out. The same thing is true of Philadel phia, where in 1900 only some 40 per cent of the 1,266 marriages were of Philadelphians, 37.7 per cent being born in Virginia, 13.9 in Maryland and 6.9 in North Carolina, Iu concluding the consideration of tho birth and death rate, and the small number of marriages contracted, based in the main on the Philadelphia statis- Ucs, Mr. Wright says: “This mueh may be haphazard, that the negro in the northern city, handi- capped by an increased cost of living and shut out of the fullest enjoyment of the community life, does not re- produce himself, but must be constant- ly reinforced by people from an en- vironment sanctioning a lower stan- dard of living, who’ are able and Will consent to have children, If the mi- gration from the South were cut off the northern negro population would probably slowly die out. For the population now maintains {tself not only by immigration but by immigra- tion of those who will have families. Their children, the second generation, born and reared under northern condi- tlons, are those who do not reproduce theraselves.” That this condition {s not brought about by the climatic conditions of the northern and western states is shown conclusively by statistics, the death rate of the negro population of 12 northern and western cities, for 1900, being greatly less than that of {2 southern cities, that of Savannah, Charleston and New Orleans being twice as great as that of New York and Chicago. “Nor {s that the only indication,” says Dr. Wright. “Ac- cording to the census, the death rate of northern negroes is frequently low- er than that of whites in southern cit- les." ‘The reason for the condition that works against the perpetuation or reproduction of the negro In the north- erm and Western states must be sought for In some other causes than climate, housing and high cost of living, as compared with southern conditions. The question {s one of vital interest and could to advantage be made a special study by our physicians, In a thoughtful article in The Out- jook for April 8 last, dealing with the decline of the birth rate in Great Brit- uin, the Australian states, France and he United States, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt takes a ddleful riew of the SCIENCE OF BREEDING. | Generous foreign support is prom: ised for the International Eugenics ‘congress, to open fn London shortly. ‘This will be ‘the first gathering of its Ming, and students of sociology and other bighbraws are anticipating tha! ‘the congress will inaugurate a new era in buman welfare.

LAND DISCOVERIES. In the current fesue of Farm and Fireside appears the following: “Long before much was known about chemistry, the ancient farmers learned that crops grown after clover were larger and better than others. About 50 years ago a German scholar found out why {t was. He learned that there was more nitrogen in the soll after a crop of clover had been grown on it than before; and later It was found out that the Itttle white balls, or ‘nodules,’ on the clover roots are the homes of bacteria whfch gather nitrogen from the air and Jeave it in the soll for the crop of’ the next year. But after clover had been grown off and on for a good many years, {t would hardly grow on some fields and the land was called ‘clover sick.’ Really the clover was not sick. The soil was In such bad shape that the little nitro- geo-making bacteria could hardly grow. Now why was this? People then did not know. |_Any growing crop takes up from the soll certain things as food, but in tak- Ing this plant food {t finds some mix- tures that ft cannot use, and these are thrown off by the little roots and left {n the soll. This mixture left in the soll is often harmful to the next crop of the same kind. No two crops need just the same kind of plant food mixtures, and so don’t throw off the same things; but the mixtures that oats leave in the ground would be harmful to the next crop of oats, or wheat to wheat. But what oats leave is not’ harmful to wheat. | “Now’ alléot our crops throw off these mixtures which they cannot use and they are all different, yet most of the grain crops leave a tiny bit of acld in the soll. It is only recently that selentists working in the department of solls at Washington have really found out about this acid. They have named it Dihydroxystearic acid. That compound acid fs left in the soil by many of our crops, and when there {5 quite a little of that acid in the soll, it hinders the nitrogen-making bacteria in thelr growth; and when they don’t grow well, the clover doesn’t grow well, either. So the nitrogen in the soll gets low, and that makes all the crops emall and weakly. What we must learn to do fs to prepare the soll s0 as to get rid of this acld so the bacteria can grow, then the supply of nitrogen will be put back in the soll. We have learned that lime helps to break down this acid compound. PRETTY PEIGNOIRS AND BOUDOIR CAPS The fashionable peignolr of this season {s a very elaborate creation in- deed, There {s very little to distin- guish it from the orthodox evening gown except for its absence of wafst- line, for the petgnoir is generally a loose garment—quite comfortable and appropriate for the 5 o'clock tea cere- montal, _ ‘Although some women have elécted to return to the old-time nightcap, the fashion In this direction has very much changed of late, and the bou- doir cap is quite a fascinating finish to the negligee costume. Greatest Business Factor, The greatest factor for stability in business is the personality of the man who carries it on ONE-HORSE SEED DRILL. A one-horse seed drill ts a handy machine on the lerge or small farm. ‘A good one cin be purchased for $10, or even less. On a great many farms the two- horse planter is used for corn ‘and the main seed crops, and for the regular work this style of* planter 1s better, yet for many purposes the one-horso drill comes In handy and will savo yauch time. We use ours for planting small patches of, standard and sweet corn, and for replanting all of tho drilled corn, At times when the team is busy and a field fs to be drilled an extra horse and the light drill are brought into commission and the work done without interfering with the work of the regular teams. Dur- ‘Ing the busy season or when the field work has been delayed for any cause, ‘this means much fn the saving of val- uable time and In getting the seed In the ground carly. ‘The one-horee drill is provided with several plates with different-sized openings for small and large seeds. We use our onehorse drill for plant- ing mangels, beans, peas, cowpeas and for all manner of field -and garden drilling of large and small seeds. It is an excellent machine for planting cowpeas in rows In the field for cult!- vation or for drilling them between the rows of corn at the last cultiva- tion. Sowing cowpeas and other seed in high corn at the last cultivation fs dificult and unsatistactory when done by hand. Much seed {s wasted when sown broadcast, yet with this drill all of the seed !s covered, and hence less than one-half fs required. , Every year wo plant corn betweem rows of early:potatoes at the last cu tivation. This seeding can not be done with the two-horse planter, and tt is slow work by hand, but it ts a quick and .easy fob with the one- horse drill.—H. A. VALUE OF ASHES. Sifted coal ashes absorb liquide, fix: volatile ammonia, prevent offensive odors and are valuable as absorbers. under hen roosts or in the stables. ‘They are of little value as far as plant feod 1s concerned, but they can be used with good results upon some soils In loosening them up. The pot- ash in ashes fs thus immediately avail- able for plant food. They also con- tain a little magnesia and a consider able amount of carbonate -of lime, which is of some importance, because, of its effect in improving the texture of heavy soils. Wood ashes may be applied to land ‘at the rate of 50 to 1,000 bushels (1,000 to 2,000) pounds to the acre. , One ton of good wood ashes willcontain about 140 pounds of potash and 40 pounds of phosphoric*acid. Spring is the best time to apply them. They can be used for any crop that needs potash. For cultivated crops -they should be applied broadcast after the land has been harrowed, and then cul- tivated in byalight harrowing. They can be used also as a top dressing In connection with phosphate fertilizers. It is claimed that the average sam- ple of unbleached wood ashes con- tains about seven per cent. of potash and two per cent. of phosphoric acid. Besides the actual fertilizing value, by reason of the potash and phosphoric’ acid, there is some value’ to ashes stmply by the power which the potash hag to make the nitrogen of the soil available for plant uso by its chemical action upon the organic matter and humus of the soil. As before stated, the potash in the ashes exists in a reauily soluble form, and !s thus im- mediately converted into plant food. PLANTING VEGETABLE GARDEN. It ts not always advantageous to plant the.garden as early as possible. Under certain conditions nature has- tens the growth of late-planted seeds so.that the difference in, time of their ripening will not accord’ with the dif- ference in planting. This fs particular- ly the caso when the season Is late and rainy. : Plant for a succession’ of the dif- ferent vegetables. A garden In which most of the planting fs done at about the same time will not give as good results as where a period of time elapses between the second, third or fourth plantings of the same vege- tables. Particularly 1s this true of peas, says Farm and Home. Where a number of different varleties were tried the best results were obtained from one or two varieties planted in succession. In sweet corn, however, this was not so apparent. It was found best to rely on several vartetios as well as succes- sive plantings. If the season was back- ward or the plantings made unusually early, sweet corn seemed to be very slow in growth. On the other ‘hand, the corn planted later would grow very fast under favorable conditfons. and almost catch up with the frst plantings. To overcome thie diflculty it was found advisable to rely on iin mibettinen: ce Ab@Mannt cachathan SULPHUR AS A FERTILIZER. Experfments by 3f, Boulanger have determined that sulphur (in the form of the famlllar “flowers of sulphur”) is a valuable fertilizer of soll, tending to materially increase the harvest. Its action {s not direct, as tn the case of other mineral fertilizers, however. It Operates as a modifier of the bacterial flora contained in ordinary soil, It acts as a destroyer of noxfous mi- crobes on the one hand, while on the other it is favorable to the useful bac- terial florg.

The suit is brought against the reyistratras of Fannin County for $5000 damages for refusing to allow him to register, and in his suithe declares the amendiment to the state constitution is contrary to the constitution of the United States. Mr. Butts’ move in this matter should com- amend ilself {o the Negroes of the state and the case will undoubtedly be watch- ed with considerable interest. We are especially gratified to see that Mr. Butts is not willing to sit quietiy by and have his rights denied him and trust that he will bght his case to the bitterest end. ‘the time is now past when we as indi, wiauzls and asa people should suB:nit to the injustices which have been per. petrated againstus without carrying the mat cr to the limit of the law. The unger we submit to svch treatment the nue will we be denied our rights. We rust follow the example of other peo- ple along this line and wherever we arewronged go to the limit of the law for justice. Weare citizens of the state and as such should enjoy equal rights with all other citizens and if these are denied us, we should notonly protest vehemently but carry our grievances before the highest courts ofthe land. It is with no small degree of satisfaction, therefore that we commend the actions of this Negro and trust tnat his case will prove an incentive for protest to other Negroes of the state who are dis- criminated agaiust. The Central Afro-American pub- lished at St. Louis, Mo., in its last issue reported the recest failures of two business houses conducted members of the race. ‘The Ameri- can says that these places of busi- nes> were well stocked, first-class in_every detail with reasonable pries ‘The cause of failure is placed to non-spport of the col- ored citizens. But are the colored citizens to Le biaimed for many of ‘ths failures in business attributed tothem? Had the men who con- ducte’ these places of business :d s 4 vertised liberally? Did they carry regularly a good size ‘‘ad” in the American? Did they go ont and hustle for trade? ff they*did vot do these things, could they ,liepe for anything else but failure? Our nicn must uot think that because they are colored all they have to do is to open their doors and the the people will flock to them, Far from it. ‘They must advertise lib- erally and success will bé assured along with # first-class stock and polite attention. Other colored men in business will ve failures toc if they do not hustle and advertise. men in business will be failures too if they do not hustle and advertise. Never before in the history of our city has such great activity been noted in our various field of endeayor as at present. ‘The new lease of life which our .city has recently acquired, is indeed a source of gratitude to all Savannahians alike. A movement of such pro- portions, involing such increased activity in all circles could scarcely fail to involve the Negroes who constituteat least half of the city’s population. In this movement the Negro has a very considerable role to play. We trust, therefore, that no designing white or unthinking black has counted the Negro out. One inay: usk himself the questions just here what part will the Negro play ? How will he ligurein it?) Will not the vity, involuntarily eliminate them from consideration? We think not. The realization of the hopes ot the promoters for a big- wer and better Savannali is to be ho easy task. ‘The increase of the city’s population with an earnest, patriotic and — wealth producing citizenship, the increase of the city’s naputacturing and creative enterprises by attracting ‘prospective manufacturing con- cerns; the development of our in- ternil muterial resources by en- cournging business activity on the pattofall citizens; the bringing to our city of medern attractions such as conventions, grand operas: keeping our city apacé with the tines and making it an interesting place of habitation adding to the beauty aud atnactiveness of vur al- ready baautiful ,surroundings by ‘aiunicipal restriction on unsanitary and unsightly conditions, tmprove- ment of our public streets, parks aud buildings, will produce a hap- py, comfortable and contented citizenry, happy because they live under satisfactory cunditions.

HARRIS In Which Class Are You? "Wise men are instructed by Reason, men of less understanding by Exeprience, all others by Necessity. "The judgment and sincerity exercised by individuals in their efforts for protection, uplift and development of themselves not those dependent upon them, are the unmistakable marks of the difference in men. "This suggests the question of Insurance. "Happy is the young man, who by Reason and a knowledge of men and things, protects himself against sickness and accidents by a liberal insurance policy, for he has a certain "peace of mind" denied the thoughtless. Besides, in youth, the cost of insurance is smaller than in later years. "Fortunate is the man, who by Experience with unexpected Doctor's bills appreciates the value of an Insurance policy for himself; odhane dependent upon.nim. "Wretched is the man who, when the ravages of time have reduced his youth-old age of affliction and discouragement, first awakens to the Necessity of Insurance.

AGENTS WANTED For the Sale of Magic Shaving Powder It gives a quick shave without the use of a RAZOR For Particulars, Write THE SHAVING POWDER CO. Savannah, Georgia. East and west met at the Holborn restaurant in London, Eng., for the first reception held by members of the Nobodies club. Every nationality was to be found among the hundreds of nobodies and greetings were exchanged in a dozen languages. There are Hindoo nobodies, as well as Japanese, and negroes from Virginia, but each one is interested in art or literature, or some kindred occupation, so there is plenty to talk about. "Our object is to hasten the death of race hatred," said Mr. Charles Roshen, the secretary. "Another object is to promote friendships among interesting people who have slender means and few friends in London. "We have already about 500 members and are going to have suitable clubrooms somewhere in the West end as soon as we can." A very large amount of the lawlessness among us in the towns, cities, and country, grows not only out of the idleness of many of our young men and women, but also out of that "spare-the-rod" home training. Many adult yet today mistake mannishness in boys for manliness, and womanishness in girls for womanliness, and go on ignorantly praising them for the wrong virtues until it is too late. Hence the Saturday night and Sunday cussing, gambling, cutting, shooting, and all the killing scrapes that are about us are prevalent as ever. You must respect the law or suffer the consequences.—Allendale Advocate. It is very gratifying to learn that Rev. R. R. Wright, Jr., a Savannah, Ga, boy, was elected at this session of the general conference of the A. M. E. church, assembled at Kansas City, Mo. by a large majority, over his two opponents. His strongest opponent, Rev. A. L. Galnes, D. D., received 137 votes; his second opponent, Rev. C. M. Tanner, D. D., received one vote. Rev. Wright received 375 votes and was declared elected by the general conference. Rev. Wright succeeded also in electing the man he desired for manager, Rev. J. I. Lowe, of Hot Springs, Ark. The lesson which is probably difficult for the great majority of men to learn and the one failure to learn which is a most fruitful source of discontent and dissatisfaction with life as we meet is in the lesson of self-denial. To relinquish at times the desire for present gratification to the end that we may be more able to satisfy future desires more abundantly is a distasteful engagement, and yet this is what must be done if we wish to attain to the envied standard of real independence—The Demonstrator. How many young men in your community can you depend upon to take the places of the men who are managing the affairs of the church and the school and the state when these older men have passed away? The nation must have men of character and ability to rule in its affairs. Can we point to the boys and young men about us and say they will meet the requirements?—The Torchlight. The man who manufactures a falsehood to injure his neighbor, or who circulates the falsehood after it is made, is blacker at heart than the assassin who lurks in the dark to strike down the unsuspecting passerby. There is no character so vile as the liar and the slanderer.—The Torch Light. The striking improvement our women are making in the art of caring for their "crowning glory," has been commented on thuswise by Uncle Rucker: "The colored folks have to fight foes from without, foes from within, and they also have to keep fighting their hair." The M. E. general conference did not elect a negro bishop, but it did elect President W. P. Thirkield of Howard university to the bishopric. Dr. Thirkield has spent the greater part of his life in uplift work for the negro. Did you ever stop to think that the opinion that you have of yourself may not be shared by any one else? You may be the only one who thinks about yourself that way.—Interstate Reporter. Saul strode among his fellows taller by many cubits, but he was deprive of the crown of Israel. A draught of cold water will often prove effective in restoring a drunk man to sobriety. The tightest place in which an individual can get is that from which he can't escape. WORTH KNOWING. In drawing threads for Mexican work or hemstitching it saves much time and trouble to draw the thread from the middle of the space first; after this two threads, one on each side of the drawn one, may be pulled out at once. The very best remedy for a bruise is butter. Whenever one of the children has a fall or knock of any kind, apply butter. This relieves the pain, prevents swelling and keeps the hurt place from turning black and blue. It is a very simple salve and one that is always in the house. WORK THE GROUND WELL There will be some ground plowed and some crops planted all through the summer when the ground is relatively dry and the air dry and hot. Last winter and spring a good amount of water fell upon the earth and sank deeply into the soil. That soil water is now in reserve for summer use if we can hold it there and allow only a small amount to escape by surface evaporation. Where a crop of hay, grain or some cultivated crop is growing, much of the soil water is taken up and used by the plants. During dry seasons there is usually enough for corn, cotton and other cultivated crops if weeds are not allowed to grow in the field to drink away a large share of it. A few weeds may do small injury during a moist summer, yet during dry weather they steal away so much water from the roots of cultivated plants that the crop suffers materially. The same is true in the plowed field that is lying to be worked and planted to a summer crop. Such plowed fields should be harrowed and disced to kill all weeds to prevent them from taking up soil moisture that should be saved for the crop of useful plants. Where ground is to be plowed for a summer or early fall crop, cut a narrow furrow but plow deep. Shallow plowing will not do for midsummer working. The ground must be broken deeply to form a deep and moist seed bed. Skimming over the surface only a few inches deep will allow the soil to become dry and hard, and no manner of surface working will make it moist. Having the ground plowed deeply, the first thing to do to make it moist is to go over it with a spike-toothed harrow to break up some of the clods into fine soil to fill the many spaces between the large and small clods through which the moisture from below is escaping upward. The point is to check this as soon as possible, and instead of allowing it to escape into the dry air, keep a part of it at least down below where it will be taken up by the under sides of the large clods for making them moist and mellow. Then "jump onto" the plowed ground again after a day or two with the same harrow. Some more fine soil will be formed to fill the spaces among the clods, which will further retard soil moisture from escaping into the air. If the ground is very dry, hard and cloddy, not much good with one harrowing will be apparent. Yet much good is done. The tramping of the heavy horses will mash many of the clods into fine soil, and every clod that is mashed will help a little. Every time you go over the plowed ground more fine soil will be made and more deep-soil moisture saved. Use a drag or roller, anything that will crush the clods and compact the surface soil. By and by, although the surface may look as dry and fine as the dryest road dust, yet just below this fine surface mulch there will be moist, mellow soil, just the kind for ideal germination of seed. It is possible in summer to go onto a dry plowed field and make the soil wet by surface working in making the surface soil fine and, compact. The moisture is not created in the surface, but the surface is made so that it prevents the deeper soil moisture from escaping as it arises to the surface by capillary action. As long as there is a drop of water in the deep soil it gradually rises to the surface by capillarity of soil particles. On ordinary plowed land this moisture comes to the surface and immediately passes away into the dry air as an invisible vapor. The soil is wet under an old straw stack or a pile of boards in dry times, simply because the straw and boards prevent the water from evaporating when it arises to the surface. You can make and keep your dry fields wet in hot summer weather if you plow the surface deep and work the plowed ground down fine, firm and level. You can not make it rain to wet the soil from above, but you can accomplish a similar result by working the top soil and letting the rain come up from below. It is really better to catch the rain for crops from below than from above. The deep roots of the growing crops are the origins of the plants which need the water most. H. H. Shepard. COTTON-SEED MEAL FOR COWS. Cotton-seed meal when fed to dairy cows in moderate quantities is not dangerous if mixed with bulky feed, like bran, and the bowels kept open with some succulent feed, as silage and roots. A cow can safely be fed three or four pounds of cotton-seed meal daily under such conditions. When it is fed without some laxative sort of food, the cow is liable to become constipated and possibly have udder troubles. Do not feed it for a few weeks before parturition nor for a couple of weeks afterwards. When feeding cotton-seed meal begin with a small quantity and increase gradually the daily amount. SILK HANDKERCHIEFS. Silk handkerchiefs are favored by many,men, and when the softness, the suppleness and the small space they require are considered their choice is plainly a matter of material comfort as well as good looks. They make an attractive birthday or anniversary gift. Charming letters can be made for marking silk handkerchiefs by using very pure silk net, and it adds very materially to the value of the gift if it is tastefully decorated by one of these letters. It is a pretty idea to inclose the letter in a wreath of flowers and fill in the space between the wreath and letter with French knots or with a fine latticework of stitches.
