In view of the fact, as evidenced by a communication in Friday's Ob server, that the story of the weighing of the human soul by Hoston doc tors has aroused Home erWu Inter est, wo hasten to say that It Is ut terly preposterous and could never fur a moment deceive an xperlenced newspaper man, much less a man of Iclence. If U had hailed from Chi cago, the birth place of mot of Its kind, few could well have fail, d to spot It on sight ax one of those en sational newspaper kUtIcs which pre sume upon popular Ignorance of the limitations attaching to present day science.

The people of North Carolina, who have Its true Interest at heart, are might ily tired of the narrow, whlp-drlving politic under' which they have for so long Bunered, thinking nothing of but fighting the Interests of tho State and having regard only to power, politics And office. W ventur f nothing ; In saying that an orgajilzod and we 'be lieve a successful effort la In prog ress to overthrow thle baleful domina tion. But this was only Intended ,t Introduce a few'' eentencee frora a communication In The Wllmlngtopi Messenger from Mr. R. A. Parsley, business man of that city: "It Is high time, Indeed, that the press of North Carolina should raise It voice In protest and lend Its energies to the crushing out of a false leadership that Is constantly Inflaming and leading the people on to the goal of discrimination, socialism, confiscation, anarchy and ruin. Some of these leader are, no doubt, sincere In their misguided purpose- but most of them are demagogues who' seek to ride Into lucrative office up' n the crest of the wave of miscon ception. , The luat Legislature has glvon the State u commercial set-back from which it will not recover in five years, even unth r good government. In tho short space of sixty days It has nullified the splendid efforts of the present Governor, his predecessor, and the present Lieu tenant Governor, who have but recently visited the Northern anil Eastern States, proclaiming our great resources, telling of our educational and industrial pro gress, and Inviting capital and energy the two forces most needed-to Join in nor development. It has effectually cheeked the efforts of our commercial bodies and thoroughly discouraged u commercial patriotism which North Carolina has not enjoyed since that spirit was crushed In lh early sixties. "Where Is the honest North Carolinian who can look his capitalist (rlend of another State In the face to-day and say: 'We need and want your capital to help us develop one of the richest undeveloped Stales In the world; come with us Into North Carolina and Invest your energy and your money. You will not regret It?' If you And such a man to-day, you will tlnd him among tho g.-mK that would get the stranger In and t In ri 'milk' him." Accompanying the communication of Mr. Parsley Is a strong editorial from The Messenger, an able, honor able and Influential paper, "in the course of which it Is said: "We want all readers of The Messt-n-r. ! to Klv this letter careful considera tion. It sounds a warning to the Oemo eratlc forces It shows the dangers that He la-fore the party the breakers on v bleh It will be wrecked unless the course is changed.

"The telephone, at an Incident to social Intercpurse, 1 first-clas for the men, but It is unfair to the girls," Is the opinion of a young lady, "It save the men the trouble of writing and i sending notes and the suspense of waiting for the answers. .But It takes the girls too often by surprise, When a girl's 'phone rings she goes to It In a wonderment as to who may be calling and what for. Perhaps It turns out to be a man that bores her but Is not otherwise offensive. He wants to take her to tho show. She can't hem and haw,, but must say yes or no on the, spot. If he had Rent a note, she would have had time to In vent a reasonable excuse, time, any how, to make up her mlnjj. The man has all the advantage. ' "There is this in favor of the 'phone, though," argued the young lady: "negative answers to notes are often misunderstood by oversensitive or over-dull men, who regard them selves as cut or encouraged contrary to the note's Intention; but when a negative answer Is given over the phone the girl can certainly make her feollne understood. But 1 did love the little nofes and the excite ment of seeing the fast-runners bring ing them!" Way up In the sand hills,, some where on the slope of the Gum Swamp, there is a chunk of Ughtwood possessed of a spirit, other than turpentine. When Sherman's army was laboring through there, a negro woman by the name of Harriet threw her child un der the wheels of an ammunition wagtin and saw it killed. The Yankees hailed, so the local historian relates, ; "an' cought Harriet an' said to her, 'Fetch llght'ood!' She went an' picked up knots an' fetched 'em to the Yankees, an' when she had as big a pile as they wanted, they drove a stake, an' tied Harriet to It, an' piled the knots up around her, an' burnt her alive. "Anybody up here can tell you," said the historian, "that the bottom chunk of that llght'ood didn't burn, an' It wont burn now, an' the weath er don't rot It, an' nobody can't lift It up or budge It n, not Samson or iollar. If you go thar an try to pick up that chunk, nupp'n' gays, 'Putt It down! Putt It down!' " hum. ineu urtout anowier wuui a gobbler thunder through' his vocal apparatus or -with his wingsT Of course theso- two matters of dis pute are of no Importance to laymen' In the realm of science; What do you and I care how an' old bullbat or an old gobbler makes a noise?; But It illustrates the very common and significant unreliability of casual ob. eervatlon."
