The order in all of its branches was out-in full strength and the services were very interesting. The master of ceremonies was Mr. J. W. Millen, and Rev. R. He Singleton, pastor of the church, preached the thanksgiving service. On Monday afternoon the an- nual parade of the uniform ranks of the order was héld. There were four companies in line head- ed by the Knights of Pythias’ band. Accompanying the uniform ranks were the subordinate lodges and courts, the latter in carriages. The parade was in charge of Major Matthew Jackson and as it passed through the principal streets of the city received many hearty applause. At night the anniversary was concluded with an entertainment, at Mechanic’s hall. F Over Home News, Beaufort,S. d J.S. Blocker, Correspondent. The Odd Fellows and House: holds of Ruth thanksgiving cele- bration took place at the Grace A.M. E. church on Sunday May llth. Long before the appointed hour one could see the great mass of people pouring into the church. If Peter Ogden, the founder of the great order in America, could only have come back to this earth and beheld what his teaching of friendship, love and truth have done for the Negro in this country and seen the hosts that are follow- ing-under that banner, his heart would have leaped with joy.

Work Lead Choral Work—Proceeds Go to Endowment Fund, | Nashville, Tenn., May 14, 1914, | In all the history of its pioneer work in the development of the Negro folk songs Fisk University had never given such a concert as Was presented to an enthusiastic audience last night in Ryman Au- ditorium, the largest hall in the city. This immense audience gave the 300 Negro students round after round of applause, demanding an encore for every “number on the program. Nowhere else in the United States could there be gath- ered such a company of select Ne= gro voices under such leadership, for the singing of these songs, us that which greeted the music loyers of Nashville on this occasion, From the opening'song of **Breth- ren, Rise,” to the closing “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,” led by Mrs, Ella Sheppard Moore, one of the original Jubilee Singers, this mam- moth chorus held the audience in wrapt attention. The chorus was assisted by the University Orches- tra, the Men’s Glee Club, and the Women’s Glee Club, whose rendi- tion of Mendelssohn’s “Lift Thine Eyes” was as pure a piece of vocal harmony as one seldom has a chance to hear. The choral worl was under the direction of Prof. John W- Work, the noted leader of Negro folk songs. His solo, “Onaway, Awake Beloved,” by Coleridze-Taylor, was one of the features of the evening. - This concert was-given as a part of the strenuous effort the Uni- versity is making to raise the bal- ance of nearly $100,000 to com- plete a much needed endowment fund, ‘The raising of-this fund will meet a great “crisis in the his- tory of this noted institution. Cash and pledges to the amount of $202,000 have beensecured. Many of the pledges are conditioned on the raising of the balance of a f300,000 fund by June Ist, 1913 twelfth year and sie will be award- edadiploma, There will be no one to complete the work of the graduating exercises this year so the diploma will-be given private- ly. Although the standard of the school has been raised and new studies added to the course, Miss Foster has completed her work with credit to herself and to the school. Aside from her ability as a student Miss Foster posseses qualities that will make her a use- ful and influential member of any community. Sheis contemplating continuing her studies at Spelman Seminary, Atlanta, the coming term. . THE NEGRO AND SOUTHERN PROSPERITY . ~ Dr. Booker T. Washington and Party in Tidewater Virginia. colored leaders, recently spent four days in making an education- al extension tour through four prosperous counties of Tidewater Virginia—Northampton, Accomac, Mathews and Gloucester. The Washington party was car- ried from Hampton Institute to Cape Charles, which is on the fa- mous eastern shore of Virginia, on the “Dixie,”an 80-foot sail and power boat formerly owned by ‘Thomas Dixon. 7 Dr. Washington visited Tidewa- ter Virginia to see at frst hand what the colored people are doing, how they are living, what their aspirations are, and if possible, to help them by words of encourage- ment for further progress. His aim was also te cement more friendly and rational relations be- tween black men and white mer- During his brief stay he deliver- ed seven public addresses to some twenty thousand attentive, orderly, proserous Negroes and hundreds of the most representative white people, leading ministers, lawyers, and public spirited citizens. Meetings were held at Hale Valley, Cheriton, Cape Charles, Tasley, New Boston, Mathews Courthouse, Gloucester Court- house and Williamsburg. Dr. Washington worked hard. He was amply repaid, however, by the close hearing and hearty en- dorsement which he received from his own people and from the best white people. With the keenest insight into southern conditions of life and the possibility of the Ne- gro finding his best field of action in the southland, with its genial climate, rich soil, and good white people. Dr. Washington gave the colored people of Virginia some wholesome advice. At the same time he was able to show southern men and women, without giving offense, what their responsibilities are towards the Negroes about them, s 4% DR. WASHINGTON’S GOSVEI . “Both races in the south are embarrassed by the fact that the worst things are telegraphed over| the world, while the best things ire known only in the communi- ‘ics where white men and: black], men are living daily in peace and || harmony. Every Negto has al: white friend, and every whiteman nas a loyal Negro friend.

There is enough of wisdom, |: yatience, Christianity, and com-|1 non sense in the South to solve all}; he socalled race problems. White}; eople and black people are going|| 0 livein the South for all time.” These simple words, addressed vith rare force, directness and |« act to thousands of Negroes who|( ire earning 4n honest living and|1 re living in peace and harmony |. sith their white neighbors, were!

Tyson in At«. tendance The twentieth annual meeting of the Georwia State Medical Associ- ation of Colored Physicians, Den- tists and§Pharmacists convened in Columbus Ga., on Tuesday and adjourned Thursday evening. . ‘The sessions of the association were interesting throughout and the various papers read were all very carefully prepared. The attendance at all the sessions was gratifying, especially that at the public meeting, when the citi- zens of Columbus availed them- selves of the opportunity of listen- ing to the various discussions. While this city was not repre- sented on the printed program, yet Dr. C. B. Tyson was in attend- ance at all of the sessions of the association and took part in many of the discussions. Not only was the medical _pro- fession of Georgia in attendance at the meeting, but several distin- guished physicians from neighbor- ing states were there also. The public session on Wednes- dayferening at the Metropolitan Baptist church was particularly in- teresting and was attended by a packed house. Dr. J. A. Kenney, President National Negro Medical Association, Tuskegee, Ala., was the prineipal speaker. SS ee ae, a a ee During the‘latter part of last. week there was opened at 458 West Broad street a Negro cigar | factory. This latest adjunct to the Negro businesses of the city is run under the name Maurel and DuBlack. Before moying into their new quarters the business was located near Bona- venture. ‘Chey make a very fine brand of cigar and their goods are finding a ready market. For the past three or four nights a coa- siderable crowd has been gathered in‘ front of the store witnessing the making of cigars. Among the more pdpular brands of cigars made by this firm are “Imperial Club,” **Cazadores” and *‘Panama Puffs.” prove to the white men in thecom-, munity where we live that educa- tion makes us more law abiding, more industrious, more saying, and less idle, that minute will millions of dollars be poured out in every part of the South for Ne- gro education. - Our education, then, is largely in our own hands.” CLIMAX OF THE TRIP. Some five thousand white and colored people assembled at the Gloucester Courthouse square to hear Dr? Washington. Judge Jones, who was holding court in Gloucester, suspended the court i session and came to the Washing- ton meeting. The white high school closed it doorr so that teach- ers and pupils might hear the well known principal of Tuskegae. At Gloucester, as in all other places where public meetings were held. the white people oceiipied special seats which bad been reserved for’ them by their colored neighbors. Major James E. Stubbs, one of the wealthiest and most distinguished white lawyers in Tidewater Vir- ginia, as well as Senator John H. Saunders, introduced Dr. Wash- ington. “In Gloucester county you hare norsceproblem. Here, ithes been solved. In Gloucester each race in social matters is separate. In the fundamental things of life, - white. men and black men are one. Here you have from fifty to sixty graduates and former students of Hampton Institute at work. In no other county have I seen the teach- ings of Hampton so completely exemplified. This is a model coun- ty. ‘The jailis empty, the farms are full. The people are well dressed, happy, and sing well. There is less race prejudice in Gloucester county than almost any- ~ where else in the suuth. Indeed, there is far less than in Boston or New York City: This perplexing race problem will be solved event- ually in justice to white people and black. Wm. Anthony Aery.

The marriage will take place June 4th, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. J. Johnson, Montgomery and Fifty-sixth streets. A Superior Officer Jamie and Mary, aged six, were "playing ship." They paced their respective porches grandly, arrayed in borrowed yachting clothes. "I know a nice play," Jamie suggested. "Let's be admirals and command all the ships in the navy." True to habit, his next door neighbor shrewdly exacted conditions. "All right, only I must be the highest nomiral and give commands to you," she announced firmly, and Jamie gave grudging assent. Victory thus assured. Mary softened and modified the letter of her edict. "I'll tell you, Jamie," she cooed. "let's play I'm the admiral's wife. That'll do just as well."-Youth's Companion.

Text of tho-Lesson, Gen. xliii, 18, 19, 23- 34—Memory Verses, 29, 30—Golden Text, I John 2-10—Commentary Prepared by Rey, D. M. Stears. Because of Jacob's determination not to let Benjamin go to Egypt and the determination of the sons not to go without him they tarried till the corn they had brought was consumed. Then when they had to go or sturge Judah pleaded with his father, saying: "Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go. * * * It will be surety foe him" (verses 8-10). This is all so suggestive, for the great and only surety, the Lord Jesus, came from the tribe of Judah (Heb. vil, 14), and in one of the great "Who is this?" verses concerning Him it is written. "Who is He that hath been surety, for his heart to approach unto me?" (Jer. xxx, 21, R. V. M.) I still believe, as I have long believed, that anointed eyes may see Jesus Christ on every page of Scripture, but he must be blind indeed who cannot see Him in this wonderful story. As Juobob sent away his sons with a present for the ruler in Egypt who controlled the corn and double money to pay for the first corn and the next and Benjamin he said, "God Almighty give you mercy before the man" (verse 14). This is one of the most wonderful names of God in the Bible, and it is found thirty-one times in the book of Job and only twenty-six times in all the rest of the Bible. It is "El-shaddah," which may signify "the Mighty God, who is all sufficient." To know the sufficiency of God we must know our own insufficiency and become, like Job, thoroughly emptied of self (Job xlii, 5. 6). Jacob was now thoroughly emptied, even of his last loved son, Joseph's own brother, and was very near the time of fullness of blessing. We may not attempt to describe the feelings of Joseph as he looked upon the face of his own brother and gave orders to the ruler of his house to make ready to have those men dine with him, nor can we imagine their surprise as; Simeon having joined them, those eleven men sat before him in the order of their ages-Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah and so on to the youngest. Benjamin (verses 22, 33). We think of how thoroughly we are known by Him whom we know not as we might and will some day, and we cannot but think of another gathering of twelve when He sat with the eleven at the passover, Judas having gone. Their fear and the "Peace be to you, fear not," of verses 18, 23, make us think of His "Peace be unto you. * * * Why are ye troubled? to the ten, and a week later His "Peace be unto you" to the eleven (Luke xxiv, 36-38; John xx, 26). The great adversary takes delight in filling us with thoughts of fear and unrest, but the Lord's thoughts to us are always thoughts of peace (Jer. xxix, 11; Ps. xxix, 11; Ixxx, 8; John xiv, 1; Matt. xxiv, 6). The steward of Joseph's house seems to have known the God of Israel (verse 23), and we are not surprised, being in the service of such a man as Joseph. His words must have comforted the brethren and specially when he restored Simeon to them, no doubt in good condition. The water for their feet (verse 24) takes us back to xvill. 4, and on to Luke vii, John xill. When Joseph came home at noon they had the present ready and bowed themselves to him to the earth with probably never a thought of a dream they had heard twenty years before. There should be great comfort to every believer in "the eternal purpose of God" and in the assurance that "every purpose of the Lord shall be performed" (Eph. ill. 11; Jer. li. 20). How can our hearts be quiet as we look on this scene and hear Joseph'say to them: "Is your father well, the old man of whom ye spake? * * * Is this your younger brother of whom ye spake unto me? God be gracious unto thee, my son." We do not wonder that Joseph could not restrain his feelings and that he had to hurry to his chamber to weep. How natural to read that after weeping he washed his face before he could be calm enough to go out to them again (verses 30, 31). Did you never do it after those tears had come that you could not restrain and your eyes were red with weeping, but a plentiful supply of water helped, and you looked like yourself again? I do not quite see how they could be merry with him. They did not know him except as the ruler of Egypt, and their guilt concerning their brother, of whom they said, "One is not," could not altogether fade from their minds, but it is wonderful how pleasant surroundings can make us forget for a time. They were certainly highly honored to be thus invited to dine with so great a man, and for the time being seemed to forget all else. They needed, however, more humiliation and a deeper conviction of sin, and it had to come. There can be no lasting peace until we have learned that we are sinners and nothing but sinners and that in us—that is, in our flesh—dwell no good thing (Rom. vii, 18). Miss Habershon's suggestive typical lessons from this chapter are concerning the feast made ready and the perfect love of Him who makes the feast casting out all fear (Matt. xxll, 4; I John iv. 18; Rom. xv, 13). She also quotes Lnke xv. 24, in connection with their being merry. PA E SAYS It is time to clean up the bed. Don't put it off.

A Tortible Punishment. A man suspected of treason in 1702occo was punished by having the flesh of his hand sliced, the wounds filled with salt and the whole hands sewed up in leather. It is a common belief that this punishment causes mortification to set in and that the hand decomposes, but such is not the case, for by the time the leather wears off the hand is healed, the result being that the hand is rendered useless and remains closed forever. It is a punishment not often in use, but is sometimes inflicted in cases of murder or constant theft. It is a punishment that cannot be applied except by the sultan's orders. — Blackwood's Magazine. The First Railway Trains. The First Railway Trains. Some high speeds were attained by the early English railroad trains. The Illustrated, London News of Aug. 10, 1844, records that four days previously "the journey from Slough to Paddington was accomplished in less time than the distance had" ever been traversed. The eleighteen miles and a quarter only occupied fifteen minutes and ten seconds." So early as 1841 it was announced that Brunel for, a wager of £1,000 ($5,000) was about, to run a train from Bristol to London, within two hours. This feat does not appear to have been accomplished. Five years later, however, between Exeter and Starross, Brunel made the journey at a speed of seventy miles an hour. He Knew His Business. He Knew His Business.

Mod- rm nervous tension Is due to many causes—the increase of education, the ‘haste ard speed characteristic of every | affair ef life, the irritability resuttinz from dazzling lights, bewildering noise ‘and the whirl of amusements. | The result of natural fatigue is a Towering af sensibility, which passes away entirely after rest. But the ovel- fatigue so cominon in the present time produces a state of irritable weakness which night's repose fails to remove A woman suffering in this way will ‘find that her heart beats more quickly and weakly, that ber breath is “short.” her temperature slightly raised and that she has lost her ordinary strength and vigor. ‘To add to these evils many busy wo- men nowadays do not get enough sleep, and what sleep they have Is of ten disturbed by noises. To get the most out of tife it {s well to co slow. The oaly preventive and cure ef overstrain is rest, and the wo- man who leads a tranquil life will really suceeed in enjoying a masimum of ite pleasures. FOR THE SPRING TABLE. An Easily Prepared Meat Course That Will Appeal to Jaded Appetites. For breaded cutlets buy about four pounds of fore quarter of lamb, says the Boston Cooking School Magazine.

Mutual which is an acknowledged blessing to our peo- ple. But instead, we support those insurances which very natur- ally could not offer us any hope of advancement for the good ren- gon thet they belong to another race. But this probleme has been solved hy: Nero men of braye and adventurous business spirit, who were willing to invest their money eens going through the finah- cial dangers which are always found in new business ventures, and asQ consequence we are now ready to submit to you a busin- Ness monument erected to the financial honor and and glory of usall.

Agt, The Tribune acknowledges receipt of invitations to the closing exercises of the following schools: The Atlanta Baptist College, Atlanta, Ga.; Talladega College, Talladega, Ala.; Masonic Home School, Americus, Ga.; Evergreen Academy, Ashburn, Ga; Snow Hill Normal and Industrial Institute, Snow Hill, Ala.; Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., and Knox Institute, Athens, Ga. The unrelenting and uncompromising warfare now being waged by Recorder Schwarz against masbers and wouldbe masmers who infest the streets of our fair city and with impunity belch forth their perfidious insults to members of the gentler sex, meets the unqualified approval and commendation of all sober-minded citizens of our city. Again has the recorder shown that he is the right man in the right place. It goes without saying that the masmers ought to be severely dealt with. They ought to be punished to the limit of the law. And we believe that Recorder Schwarz has the courage to mete out to them the kind of punishment which is in keeping with their criminality. All women, including ours, should feel indebted to the recorder for the strong stand which he has taken in their defense. In him, they have a protector against street tormentors. We trust that our women will do as others do, make complaint to the proper authority whenever they are insulted on the streets. We believe that the good recorder will extend to them the same hand of protection. For sometime we have refrained from mentioning the name of Jack Johnson either by word of mouth or through the columns of our paper. So distasteful to us have been some of his recent acts and so much out of accord with common sense and decency has been his demeanor on many occasions, that we have lost all the admiration which we once had for him as the premier of the "world of manly art." His recent conviction on seven counts, however, as a violater of the federal white slave law, after a prosecution altogether air tight and covering a period of many months, during which time Johnson was pursued both by day and by night, by foes and tormentors of every class and description, makes us hold a sympathetic hand to him and say that justice garbed in its usual robe, not only prosecuted in this particular case, as is its duty, but persecuted as well. To say that Johnson is the victim of peculiar circumstances, is to speak truly. His rise to the top of his profession was indeed meteoric. He rose rapidly. Yesterday he is a mediocre fighter. Today he is champion of the world. And with his rise to the championship of the world of pugilism, there was a corresponding rise in the value of his coffers. Fame and fortune came to him simultaneously. They came, as it were, on wings. Unused to either and schooled in the questionable methods of the world of pugilism, he used them badly. He followed others. He did as they did. Hence his undoing. Sad indeed is it for Jack Johnson. He did not reckon well. He forgot that he was champion of the world and a Negro at the same time. He forgot that there were white hopes, hopelessly hoping against hope, that they might some day wrest from him his well-earned laurels. He saw others speed against time through the streets of cities and escape punishment. He did likewise and was pinched. He saw others defy officers of the law and go unharmed. He did likewise and suffered thereby. He saw, others violate the federal white slave law and escape punishment. No doubt, he thought that he could do likewise. But, as has been said, Johnson did not reckon well. While it is true that as a violator of any statute of the government, Johnson should be punished just as any one else should be, without regard to a consideration of those who violate and escape just punishment. Nevertheless the fact remain, that in every case in which the champion figured undue and unnecessary publicity was given to it and the champion punished to the limit of the law. That Johnson has committed wrong, we must admit; that he has been criminally guilty of one offense after another and on more than one occasion, we also admit. That he should have been made the target on which Negro hating editors and other fire branders of their ilk might vent their spleen simply to get him out of the way of delinquent aspirants to high pugilistic honors, is indeed unfair and unjust. As we have before stated, we reiterate that Jack Johnson is the victim of circumstances. While it is true that he has done wrong, it is also true that he has been persecuted. The Negro hating fire-brands have had their inning. The prison wall yearns for Johnson. Can we ask less than that mercy will be shown him at this late hour? According to recent dispatches from Washington, Negroes employed by the government in the various departments at the Capital City are now having a hard road to travel. We are reliably informed that discrimination of the vilest and most rabid sort is being shown by certain bureau chiefs against the Negro governmental employees in the various departments at Washington. The further information comes to us that redress or relief from such untoward discrimination is denied those of our people who have the courage to let it be known that they resent the insult and abuse to which they are now being subjected. Wholesale dismissals "for the good of the service," seem to be the order of the day in and around Washington, so far as our people are concerned. And this, in face of the fact that during the last presidential campaign our people contributed their full quote of strength as voters to the election of Woodrow Wilson as the chief executive of the Nation and to the Democratic cause which he represents. It is again the same old story so far as our people are concerned—pre-election pledges and promises disregarded and unfulfilled. It has not been a long time since last November. No, only a few months have elapsed. Hence it requires no unusual strength of memory to go back to pre-election days when Democratic spell binders throughout the North and East and even in our own South land made a special bid for the Negro vote. Then we were promised honor and recognition. Then we were told that we were a potent factor in the body politic. Then we were told that the Democratic party, if placed in power, would render secure at least the share of governmental patronage which we then and now enjoy. If we remember correctly, no less a person than the Democratic nominee for the presidency joined the company of those who "made their beds with us" during the heat of the campaign, and who through correspondence with the good Bishop Walters, assured our people that they would have nothing to fear in case of his election. How changed conditions have become! Then, we were feasted and promised. Now, we are being kicked about and out. How sad! how unfortunate! And yet, why should we have expected other than this. The history of the Democratic party is a history of oppression and opposition to the Negro so far as his participation in governmental affairs is concerned. We have yet to get a square deal at the hands of this party. We have been thus treated before. And yet, we allowed ourselves to be used as willing baits to serve the ambition of Democracy and her creeds. Through our columns, we have tried to preach to our people and impress them of the loyalty of the Republican party to their cause. We have called their attention to the fact that the party had its birth and growth in the thought of freedom and justice to the Negro; that it was the party of Sumner, Garrison, Lincoln, McKinley and others who loved and served us. Yet our people thought and acted otherwise. Now those who did are receiving their reward and the entire race must suffer an consequence. We as a people can but learn alesson from the manner in which matters have so shaped themselves under the Democratic regime. What are you going to do in the future? Are we to be played with and fooled again or are we going "to stand to our oars" like men when the opportun- nity again presents itself to do so! Surely the latter can be our only course. The Democratic party has yet to prove that it believes in fair play to all alike including our people. Until then, we must remember our present treatment and act accordingly. We must, as others do, serve those who serve us. We, as others, cannot afford to be in politics for our health. We believe the Democratic party will have occasion to observe this in the future. At any rate, we sincerely trust that our people will be free thinkers at least in 1916. We shall wait and see. Former Savannah Planist Praised The following comment from the Joliet News, Joliet, Ill., on the work of Mrs. F. M. Curtwright, daughter of Mr. A. M. Monroe, and formerly of this city, on her accompaniments in the Livingstone Classics which were rendered in that city on the 6th of this month will be of great interest to Savannahians: "Mrs. F. M. Curtwright played the greater part of the accompaniments. Mrs. Curtwright is the wife of the pastor of Second Baptist church and is a highly accomplished musician. Her accompanying is perfect, she possesses in an extreme degree that rare art of building a background of melody without in the least obtruding the piano. She is an artist of wonderful power."

CURTAINS FOR THE SUMMER. Fourteen Wild Flower Girls Who Formed a Nature Club to Study the Beauties of the Great Outdoors—How They Managed the Outing Trips. My Dear Elsa—What do you do with the old photographs you have been collecting for years? Mine have been reposing in a big box in a storeroom closet. Every once in awhile the box is raised enough for me to poke in some more discarded pictures. Last week while going through the box I had a most brilliant idea. I am sure the conception is entirely original, and I am delighted to pass it along to you. To begin at the beginning, I asked one of the family last Christmas for a book made especially for unmounted photographs and fortunately got a much better one than I would have bought myself. In the rush of things this book had never been used for its appointed purpose until the day when I was seized by the above mentioned great thought. I got down the box of old pictures and souked them in the bathtub in clear, cold water until they were loosened from their mounts. Next I dried them between sheets of clean white blotting paper. When they were dry I assorted them into groups. First came family pictures, which I gave the place of honor in the front of the book and in order according to the age of the portraits. Then came pages of friends, and you, Elsa, are beautifully represented. The very prettiest part of the photograph book is devoted to the babies of my friends. I wrote the names under each picture and, when I could, the dates too. My picture book is really very interesting and brings the past into the present in a happy way. Should you care about adopting my photograph scheme I will give you a word of warning concerning mounting the pictures: Do it when they are half dry. If you wait until they are entirely dry you will have to brush them over with water and blot again with a clean blotter before applying the paste. The regular photographer's paste is the best to use. In your last letter you asked for a curtain suggestion for your new bungalow. Here's the smartest curtains for you, which I saw in a very pretty summer cottage recently built by a friend of mine. Upon my expressing great admiration for her hangings my hostess confided to me that they were made of unbleached muslin. Well, dear, you never would have believed those lovely draperies to have sprung from such humble orignl, and it was only after their owner had told me that she had dyed the muslin, a deep golden yellow to harmonize with the wall paper that things began to explain themselves. She was driven to this expedient because she could not find any material the right shade within her purse limit. The curtains hung straight at each end of the window, while very simple hemstitched scrim curtains were run on small rods closer to the glass. The room was wonderfully pretty in yellow and white, with rugs of brown tint and brown furniture. It's a long jump from brown furniture to the subway, but I'm going to take the leap and tell you about a charming party of young girls I saw in the tube the other morning. At one of the uptown stations fourteen of the brightest, cleverest girls I've seen for a long while boarded the train. I could see from their dress that they were bound for some country expedition. They wore old tan shoes, rather passe short walking skirts, cloth caps or tams, loose fitting gloves and sweaters. I learned that these up to date girls were starting on one of their weekly nature hikes to the lovely Pallsades of the Hudson to become acquainted with the great out of doors and all its charms, and, judging from their talk, they were making great headway in their knowledge of trees, birds and wild flowers. The members of the Nature club, as they call themselves, are each allowed to spend the large sum of 5 cents for the picnic luncheon, and they generally managed, I found out, to buy enough of one thing for this sum to go round—crackers, fruit or sandwiches. And, oh, yes, I forgot to say that each girl carried a jackknife for clipping—one could not get along without this implement on this kind of a picnic. One of the wild flower girls confided to me that next Saturday the club will have a "dandy hike to the home of an out of town member," which objective point to the wanderings evidently lent an interest to the trip. If you could have seen the bright eyes and rosy cheeks of the nature hikers you would form a club and invite as an occasional visitor to the picnics your town tired friend. MABEL Use nice white heads of lettuce; pare off the outer leaves and stems; cut the remaining part in four pieces; lay in cold water until just required. Put in a colander, drain off all the water, arrange the pieces in a salad bowl and sprinkle over with grated cheese. Mix a pinch of salt and pepper together, add two tablespoonfuls of vinegar and half a teaspoonful of olive oil; pour this seasoning over the lettuce and cheese and decorate with strips of canned plimento. Local Happenings Bolled Down For Hasty Readers Two children and a lady were bitten by a dog Tuesday afternoon. The dog was killed by a policeman. The foundry building west of the Brinson depot, was destroyed by fire Tuesday morning, Two white men were fined $25 each for cursing before women on the Tybee train. The body of a Sweedish fisherman was found floating in the river, on Monday. The Chamber of Commerce will investigate the prevailing high rate of insurance in the city. Recorder Schwarz has been dealing out heavy fines to "mashers" recently. The grocery stores unattached to bar-room can remain open until 10 o'clock on Sunday mornings. W. L. Widney, a white man, was arrested here Saturday charged with safe blowing at Scarboro, Ga. The County Commissioners have refused to allow the Board of Education an increase in order to increase the salary of the school teachers. --- Several of the railroads have announced the discontinuance of excursions during the season.

Pearson, State College Twill Onward Roll This old world will still roll on, Leaving tears and smiles in its wake, Leaving hearts of joy and hearts forlorn No matter what course we take. This old world will still roll on, In spite of the smile or the frown, In spite of the words of love or scorn, It will go "roun" and "roun". If the stern unvarying course it takes Should ruin and wreck control Of schemes and plans that genius makes It still doth roll and roll. If good or bad, joyful or sad, The result of its conduct be, It trails the course that first it had, With the same alacrity. But in its flight, its course is right, From beginning until now; So men may approve or fume and fight, But they to its mode must bow. For this old world is on the go, At midnight and at morn, And balks not at our tales of woe, But just keeps rolling on. It times itself by the clock of Fate, That was set when time begun; And has never been a minute late, On its course around the sun. In storm or shine, in heat or rain, It keeps an even trend A keeps an even friend And will heed not the plea of joy or pain, From beginnniag to the end. This old world, though it still rolls on, Unrolls no act to rue, Take a pint of joy or a peck of scorn, The choice is up to you. If 'tis flood of tears or a realm of bliss, You may garner in your tale, For the chance is yours or catch or miss, While the world doth onward roll. For this old world will still roll on, If you laugh or pout or frown; You may love it deep, or deeply scorn, It will still go 'roun' and roun'." Edward Winfred Sherman. The Wake of a Ship. "Wake" for the track of a ship is a Scandinavian word, preserved in dialect. Its original meaning, as Professor Skeats tells us, was that of an opening in the ice, especially the passage cut for a ship in a frozen lake or sea, and then, from being applied to the smooth, watery track left by a ship after its passage through the ice, it came to be used when there was no ice at all. This useful word is one of the nautical terms which the French have borrowed from the English, although it is not easy to recognize it at first in its French form of "ouaiche," and it is still used on the Norfolk broads with its original meaning of an open place in the ice. MABEL'S CHITCHAT New York. Lettuce Cream Cheese BORDEAUX MIXTURE. A lady reader makes inquiry as to the method of making the bordeaux solution, which she wishes to use on apple and pear trees. This solution is a fungicide and is for the purpose of controlling apple scab, sooty blotch and other pests of a fungous nature. The solution is easily made, its preparation being as follows: To make fifty gallons dissolve five pounds of blue vitriol (copper sulphate) in twenty-five gallons of water in a small barrel or half barrel. Next slake five pounds of fresh stone lime, using care not to let it get too hot. This is done by having plenty of water handy and stirring it as occasion requires. When thoroughly slaked and reduced to the consistency of a fine putty dilute to twenty-five gallons, as in the case of the blue vitriol. The two ingredients should then be poured together into a fifty gallon barrel, a painful of each being added alternately and the mixture stirred after each addition. When ready to use the mixture should contain an excess of lime. To be sure that such is the case a few drops of a solution of prussiate of potash (poison) should be added to a small quantity of the mixture, which, if still acid, will give a chocolate precipitate. If this precipitate is formed limewater should be added until it doesn't. The apple worm may be held in check by adding to this solution two pounds of commercial arsenate of lead, which should be diluted in a couple of quarts of water and carefully stirred before pouring it in. The mixture should be stirred frequently while spraying and should be applied to the trees under as heavy a pressure as possible. The solution described is also excellent for controlling potato blight. The first application should be made, when the vines are ten inches high and should be repeated at intervals of ten days if wet or muggy weather prevails. If the potato bugs show up the arsenate of lead which the solution contains will fix them, though it is not necessary to add it unless one wishes to get rid of them. A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION The Cole commission man's bill, which passed both houses of the New York legislature and was signed by Governor Sulzer, is not all that the producers of the Empire State had hoped, but it gives promise of doing a good deal to put a stop to the injustice which they have had to put up with for years past from crooked commission men. The new law gives the commissioner of agriculture authority to refuse a license to any produce man who he is convinced is not doing business on the level; requires of each merchant a fidelity bond of $3,000, any part of which can be levied on by the farmer for money not honestly accounted for to him in payment for produce received by the merchant; provides for hearing before the agricultural commissioner, at which grievances may be presented by growers and penalties assessed against fidelity bonds, and empowers the commissioner to take sworn testimony and examine records relating to transactions in dispute. It would look very much as if all that New York producers would have to do to get a fair measure of redress under this new law would be to make a good loud "holler" and put their evidence before the proper authorities. ENGLISH HENS STILL LEAD. ENGLISH HENS STILL LEAD. The twenty-third week of the international egg laying contest at the Storrs college, Connecticut, found the English White Leghorns still in the lead and maintaining it by a good margin. Mr. Barron's pen had a score of 520 and Mr. Cam's 460. Mr. Schmitz's Buff Leghorns (American) had laid 443 eggs and Mr. Cam's White Wyandottes 420. Two other pens of American White Leghorns had laid 400 and 404 eggs respectively. A further interesting feature of the contest is the showing of averages for the twenty-third week by pens of the different breeds. In this the White Leghorns stand at the head of the list, forty-three pens having an average of 24.5 eggs each, two pens Columbian Plymouth Rocks average 23 eggs each, eleven pens White Wyandottes show an average of 22.18 eggs each, eight pens S. C. Rhode Island Reds average 22 eggs, two pens Buff Wyandottes average 21.5 eggs and two pens Buff Orpingtons scored 20.5 eggs each. The lowest weekly average, eleven eggs, was made by four pens of White Orpingtons. :PRESERVING EGGS. Extensive experiments conducted by the department of agriculture show that April and May are the best months in which to put down eggs and that the water glass solution gives the best results. A stone jar makes the best container, and this should be scalded thoroughly before the eggs are put into it. The water glass, which is a silicon compound, can be got at the drug store for from 60 cents to $1 a gallon and should be diluted in ten gallons of boiled water. Of course a smaller amount of the solution may be made up, but this one to ten ratio should be maintained. The eggs should be gathered or secured daily if possible, and only those that are clean and not cracked should be used. When the jar is full it should be covered to prevent evaporation of the solution. When taking the eggs out for use next fall and winter they should be washed in warm water. If the eggs are to be-bolled a pinhole should be made in the shell to prevent breaking, as the water glass solution seals the pores in the shell. J. C. Trigg INSURANCE GEOGRAPHY.

Office, 509 West Broad Street, Savannah Georgia. I. S. Perry; Supt. Commenting on the manner of speech in different parts of this country, Arthur E. Bostwick in "The Different West" has this to say: "Thepleasantest qualities of voice that we have are to be found in Maine and Virginia—slow and distinct in enunciation, sweet in intonation. In neither state are children taught in the schools how to speak. The persons who talk as I have described are never in a hurry (south of Washington and north of Boston time has no value), and they would not be accounted typical Americans of the 'hustling' variety. Is it possible that a rasping, metallic, high pitched intonation has some connection with business energy?" Victor Emmanuel II's Long Mustache. Sir Frederick Carrington is said to have possessed the finest mustache in the British army. It was not so long, however, as that worn by Victor Emmanuel II., whom the Duchess of Sutherland described as "the only knight of the Garter I have ever seen who looked as if he would certainly have the best of it with the dragon." The first ruler of United Italy allowed his mustache to attain such a length that in his later years he would never eat anything at a public banquet. He was obliged to tie his mustache behind his head when taking food, and this he thought looked undignified in front of people not belonging to his own circle.—London Globe. A Smooth Villain. "Before we were married," she complained, "you always engaged a cab when you took me anywhere. Now you think the street car is good enough for me." "No, my darling. I don't think the street car is good enough for you. It's because I'm so proud of you. In a cab you would be seen by nobody, while I can show you off to so many people by taking you in a street car." "You dear! Forgive me if I gave you pain in saying what I did."—Chicago Record-Herald. The Sphinx. The word sphinx is from the Greek and means the strangler and was applied to a fabled creature of the Egyptians which had the body of a lion, the head of a man or an animal and two wings attached to its sides. In the Egyptian hieroglyphs the sphinx symbolized wisdom and power united. It has been supposed that the fact that the overflow of the Nile occurred when the sun was in the constellations Leo and Virgo gave the iden of the combinations of form in the sphinx, but this idea seems quite unfounded. In Egypt the reigning monarch was usually represented in the form of a sphinx. -London Notes and Queries. ```markdown ``` CHILD'S GINGHAM DRESS. The play frock illustrated here is a substantial affair of plaid gingham with buttons down the front under a wide leather belt. The deep collar and shield of embroidery simulate a boy's sailor collar. The hat with its neat band and bow shades the face very sensibly. Hats of all descriptions, from the simple sailor to the fancy straw trimmed with flowers and feathers, are being shown for little folks. The most desirable are the tailored hats, like the one shown here, trimmed with a small bow of choux of ribbon. For very young children many of the hats are faced in lace, chiffon or soft silk, which is considered very becoming. Oil the Machine: Sewing machines should be treated with great care if you would have them last a long while and do perfect work. After every two days of steady work oil the machinery thoroughly, but be careful to wipe away all superfluous oil. Run the machine rapidly but steadily without any thread for five minutes after oiling. This will cause the oil to scatter, and the superfluous drops can be wiped away, and none will be left to stain the material you are working with. Dolly Varden Dress. The new flowered crape gives a quaint suggestion of other days which accords well with fichus, reticules and picture hats with long streamers, as fashion requires. This Dolly Varden gown of flowered crape is draped over flounces of shadow lace. Sleeves in the cotton frocks are seldom full length. In many of the more ```markdown ``` FLOWERED CRAPE GOWN. dressy ones they stop just above the elbow. Necks are almost universally open, a summer fashion which deserves to be perpetuated. Some of the long sleeves have fullness, which is brought into a cuff, but this fullness does not form a deep pouch. Other sleeves have rather a wide mouth, something like a child's short sleeve.

EXTERNAL MASONRY. The train was crowded and a modest appearing man was forced to find a seat ivith a rather flashily dressed pompous individual. No- ticing a very large charm on the front of the pompous man, he said: ©That isa fine charm you wear.” “Yes, that’s a fine one; it’s a Knights Templar charm.” *"May I ask what it cost you.” “Eighty-five dollars.” wr} nes @ Ane ring vou have on, he beloiged.

Glass and silver must be dried by hand, as they do’ not dry themselves as does china when scalded with wa- ter. Much time fs Jost in laying away silver.

Now, try this way as you wipe and see if you do not like it bet- ter: As you dry each piece sort it and lay the sorted piles on the tray—tforks, spoons, knives—separately. ‘Then when you carry thisytray of sorted silver to the proper drawer you will only need to lift the separated groups into their proper place.

A reader of this department who lives near Springfield, UL, writes mak- ing inquiry as to whether the moon has any influence on crops—that is, wheth- er root crops will do better if planted in the dark of the moon and {f those which mature their fruit above ground are planted in the light of the moon. Our friend says that, while most of his neighbors believe to a greater or less extent in these moon signs, be.himself }eoes not have much faith in them, con- sidering them as merely a matter of Superstition, ‘The writer is willing to confess that his early education may bave been neglected, but he bas never had a particle of faith in moon signs or long distance weather prophets.

The belief in moon signs, if it can be said \to have any scientific basis at oll, seems to be traceable to the “influynce or “pull” which the moon has upon the water of the earth's surface, especially as shown in the spring tides, which oc- cur when the moon 1s full. Again, it may be traced to the supposition that inasmuch as light encovrages vegeta- tion moonshine would bave some ef- fect on the growth of thit portion of plants that appeared above ground. But we are inclined to think that this is mostly moonshine. The fact is the big potato growers‘of the country pay no attention whatever to the moon or its phases, They plant their seed when they get their land ready and when the season is sufficiently advanced. To satisfy himself first hand on this point we would suggest that our correspond- ent plaut some potatoes, for instance, in both the light and dark of the moon and keep track of the yleld next fall. If he notes results that prove anything to him we would be glad to report his findings in these notes. AN EASY THING To DO. It is not a difficult matter to ascertain what the cows are doing in the way of milk and butter fat production. ‘The first requisite is a smalt sized Babcock testing outfit, which can be got for $1 or Jess. While in the making of an absolutely correct test for record pur- poses ft fs customary to welgh and test the butter fat content of both milkings each day, for ordinary purposes this fs not necessary. If the milk is welghed night and morning one day each month during the milking perfod it is suff cient Samples of the milking should be tested for butter fat, directions be- ing furnished with the testing ontft Multiplying the amount of milk as well as its butter fat content for one day by the number pf days in the months gives approximately the production for the month. Tho same procedure Should be followed once each month ‘while the cows are in milk. To get at the cost of the cow's bill of fare one should weigh and estimate the cost of the feed consumed on the day of the test, and multiplying this by the days in the month will give what the fecd for the month has cost. Following the same plan for the other months will enable one to ascertain what the feed bill for the year amounts to, With means of making a cow census for one- self as simple as this, there would seem to be no reason for farmers keeping cows around that will not pay for their board. : A SENSIBLE BOY. | ‘The writer has lately received an inquiry from a young man—a friend— in a large city who would like a pos!- tion with an intelligent and progres- sive farmer during the coming sum- mer vacation. Our friend, who 1s strong and vigorous and willing to work, “seemingly feels that, entirely aside from what he may receive in wages, the experience which he will get during the summer, coupled with the wholesome outdoor life, will be well ‘worth while, and we are inclined to take the same view. It would be a godsend to thousands of city Iads if they would plan to do just as this young man Is expecting-to do, and this is especially true of those who are none too robust. The summer's work would give them lame backs and ‘arms, but would also cultivate ravenous appe- tites and would harden their muscles and tone up their whole system. Be sides, it would give them insight Into one of the important vocations of life —one, by the way, that Is bound to be- come more and more Important as the years go by. POISONOUS AND EDIBLE MUSH- a ROOMS. W. W. Robbins of the Colorado Ag- ricultural college in a recent article contributed to an agricultural paper gives some simple directions for de- tecting_ edible mushrooms from those that are poisonous. : Ie classes as pol- sonous mushrooms those that (1) have white gills, (2) that have a ring on the stem just beneath the cap and (8) that have a cup or scales at the base of the stem. He further says that one may feel perfectly safe in eating any mush- room that bas black giljs and dis- solves with age into an inky mass, though it should be eaten before this change takes place. Among the black gilled mushrooms be includes those with a “shasgy mane,” with a more or less tel] shaped and creamy white cap and the “inky cap” variety, which grows In dense clusters. The puff balls are also edible if eaten when the fesh is white and solid. FOR YOUNG FOLKS PICTURE FRAMES ; i We make a specialty of framing diplomas, marriage licenses and pictures of all sizes.

A cheerful, genial, serene spirit is the source of all that is noble and good. Whatever is accomplished of the greatest and the noblest sort flows from such a sunshiny disposition. Petty, gloomy, brooding souls, that only morn the past and dread the future, are not capable of seizing upon the holiest and grandest moments of life.—Schiller. Improving the Boomerang. The boomerang of the Australian native is of various shapes and patterns. It has remained for an Englishman so to improve the Australian cross shaped weapon that it is no more than a cross of plain wood, the lower strip of the cross being one-third longer than the other arms of it. In throwing this the long lower end of the cross is held firmly between the thumb and finger vertically, with the plane of the cross beside his face. Thrown seventy-five feet, the boomerang will not return, but after it has traveled 100 feet or more the revolutions increase rapidly until it swerves and begins its return flight to the thrower.—Harper's. - Telegraphing Bound the World.

A young doctor said to a girl, "Do you know, dear, I have a heart affection for you?" "Have you had it lung?" she coyly inquired. "Oh, yes; I feel that I will liver troubled life without you!" he fervently responded. "Then you had better asthma," she softly murmured.—Pearson's Weekly. Room at the Top. Once upon a time there was a man who went a-courting, and he courted a widow. And the widow thought well of him; but, behold, she refused to accept a second chance! "But why will you not marry me?" persisted the suitor. "I love my first poor, dear husband from the bottom of my heart!" wept the widow. "But," persisted the man, "aln't there always room at the top?"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Cupid at the Back Stair. On the back of the maid's regular weekly letter from her admirer there invariably appeared some mysterious hieroglyphics. After a few weeks the mistress, being filled with a highly feminine and quite laudable curiosity, inquired. "Jane. what are those mysterious letters on the back of the envelopes you get?" "Why. ma'am, I thought every one who courted knew that. 'S W A K F O W L Y' means 'Sealed with a kiss' from one who loves you.'"—Manchester Guardian. A Lark's Lofty Flight Some Bavarian officers experimenting with a balloon 6,000 feet aloft noticed a little black speck which seemed to accompany them and which, they thought, was one of the cards they carried for throwing out reports and that the dropping of the balloon drew it along, but on looking at the barometer they found that the balloon was rising and not dropping. Suddenly, however, a loud chirping showed that it was a lark, which, flying at this extraordinary height, had been frightened by the balloon. Dying For Want of War: The people of the Solomon Islands are rapidly decreasing in numbers. Dr. W. Thorold Qualfe, a medical officer in the islands, declares that the decrease in population is due to the fact that tribal warfare has ceased, and the natives no longer kill one another. This warfare, Dr. Qualfe adds, used to keep the natives "fit" and energetic. Now they have become lazy and inert, and the race is fast deteriorating and seems likely to die out in course of time.-London Chronicle. A WELL SPENT LIFE. He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an inspiration, whose memory a benediction.—Bessie A. Stanley. Got the Autograph. At Carlsbad on one occasion Brahms' physician, Dr. Grunberger, asked the composer for his autograph for a young lady admirer, but Brahms scolded him for making a nuisance of himself and refused, to give it. Some weeks later, at his departure from Carlsbad, Brahms handed to the doctor an envelope inscribed. "With the cordial thanks of Johannes Brahms." Noticing a broad grin on the doctor's face, he asked: "What makes you look so cheerful? You don't know yet what the envelope contains." "Nor do I care," retorted the doctor. "The envelope is the main thing. Much obliged for the autograph!" The Bark of the Seguojias. California's giant trees, the sequolas, thousands of years old, have been preserved to this day because of their enormously thick bark. From time to time in the course of ages forest fires have swept through the big tree lands, destroying everything, yet only scorching for a couple of inches' depth or so the almost fireproof bark. The flames, having carbonized that much of the bark, could not penetrate farther, for the carbonized portion formed an absolutely fireproof covering for the remainder of the interior bark. Ivory Mats. There are but three mats of ivory in existence. The largest one measures 8 by 4 feet, and, although made in the north of India, has a Greek design for a border. It is used only on state occasions, like the signing of important state documents. The cost of this precious mat was almost incalculable, for more than 6,400 pounds of pure ivory were used or wasted in its construction. Only the finest and most flexible strips of the material could be used, and the mat is like the finest woven fabric. Nightmares. Willie—Paw, what do nightmares live on?

In these days, of course, the average man has better opportunities to win success in salaried positions than in individual enterprises. The big enterprises pay big salaries at the top, and close application will win promotion toward these bigger rewards. It is not necessary for a man to get a big salary before he begins to put money aside—Henry E. Huntington in Leslie's. Spraying the Vines. In some of the old musty record books there is a story of a vineyard in France which was devastated by grape rot, all except one row next to the road. The owner, an observing man, sought for the reason why this row should have remained unharmed and discovered that there had been a considerable deposit of limestone dust from the road, which had acted as a preservative. That was before the microscope had revealed secrets of fungous and bacterial life, but from it developed the whole practice. first, of dusting vines and trees and later spraying them.
