a V. CHAULOTTE DAILY OBSERVER, NOYEMBEE 29, 1903. BT A PBISOSTKB OF HOPE "Build thse snore stately mansions, O my soul, As the vwift seasons roll! Ut my low-vaulted putt Vt each new tempi, nobler, that the Uat, Ebut thee from Heavea with a dome mora vast. Till toon at Uat art free, JUeavine; thine outgrown shell by Ilfe'm unresting sea." It seems to me that the develop ment Of self-hood is the life-work of every Individual being-. Mary at the feet , of her Muter was doing; more than Martha with all her aervlnp. oomenow wa nave rot a wrong; iaea oa service. It Is always the other -people who need to be uplifted and 'helped.

"I never do anything for ray elf. so busy mm I helping other peo ple." Friends, It s a mighty poor workman who never sharpens his too la You can't live to-day on yester day's manna. You are not sending an able bodied worker to the help of the (world unless you are making of that worker the very best character that you know anything about. Sometimes when we hear all this bewildering buzzing about helping and uplifting a world that has somehow got Itself badly mired, one is remind ed of the old fable of the ox and the gnat. The ox was floundering help lessly In the mud. struggling and la boring to be free. He was very much annoyed by the excited buzzing of a gnat quite close to his ear. "What in the world is the matter with you?" he asked. And tha (rift. fluttering and training on the tip of the great horn replied: y am helping you out of the mire " A whole lot of the helping is like that. They mean well, poor little things, but does their fluttering mount to much? It seems to m that all this helping Is bad for the helper and for the helped. A soul must work out Its own salvation with fer and trembling lest t the same time It may harm or hurt or hinder some other soul. "To h saved Is only this Salvation from our selfishness. Worn more than elemental firs The soul's unsanctlfled desire From sin Itself, and not the pain That warns us of Its chafing chain." Salvation not from a punishment for wrong, but salvation from a state of being wrong. 1 If you meddle with the other soul the time Is lost to both. One Is neg lected, the other hindered. "No one can acquire for anothernot one, . Ho one can grow for another not one. The song Is to the singer, and comes back most to him; The teaching is to the teacher, and comes WVft IUU IV HUH. The developing of self-hood is one thing and the cultivating of selfish ness Is quite another. They are as far part as the poles and have nothing In common. One is enriching and broad ening the Individual self until it is trough t into harmony with absolute goodness. The other Is merely person gratlflcatlon. One supplies a real Heed indicated by the creation of this particular self or ego. The other mere ly help to clutter up the universe with a sort of waste material. One In the best sense gives himself. The other gives a rather clumsy clay Image of his undeveloped self. tn man gave lavishly of irold And builded tower and town; Tben smiled content to think his deeds Should give him great renown. .

It seems to me the question is not (What sort of help are you giving; but rather, what sort of helper are you furnishing? If the worker is all right the result will be satisfactory. Xo trouble about that. If you are a woman, I should think that your most acceptable gift to the world and to the Master of It, would fee the very best and sweetest and kindest woman that you can possi bly make of the material furnished to your hand. Te be sure this will leave you very little time to upbuild and elevate the woman next door, but then it will secure for her an opportunity to do a little devoloplng on her own account "' a, .. e '' It seems to me that the best way to help Is to set forth in our own liv ing the principles that we wish to es- r tabUsh. If you wanted to interest your J nAlvkRnt... In M .1 ... It.... A I icuua mnu 1 1 H LI f VI 1 1 11 11U114.U1I.U1C would you hurry about with little packet of dry, uninteresting seeds while your own garden was "a wilder ness left to deform?" X fceUeve you would devote your self to your home garden before you aah very much about the seeds and tulDS and roots. You would work rill Irently hi the soil, and as you worked the would be before your eyes an Ideal, garden, a pattern for you to work by. Long before any one else knew It, a garden would be growing for you, in 6Hrthouht-woTld. Ana by and by the real garden would unfold its beauty to your friends. And then! There would be no trouble about the little brown seeds. Your friends would fall over one Mother in the rnad rush to secure them. It would all depend upon the . excellence of your own garden. '- r - Just to say that a garden Is worth while means "nothing-. Just to insist vpon seed planting is not worth a row of bin, Preaehln bulbs and dis tributing- tubers and scattering roots j useless.

I hold that no seeker of souls has a right to ferret these out and ha rass and worry and torture them. Demonstrate to these the beauty of holiness. Warm them out by the thawing Influence or brotherly love. The sun does a lot of thawing and melting and warming, but he does it by paying strict attention to his own home fires. He burns and shines and his good works are merely a natural consequence. It seems to me that the Joy of liv ing is the birthright of humanity. Joy belongs to life as heat belongs to fire. It is not much use telling this to a miserable man. He does not belltve it. Be happy. Sorrow is a cloud across the blue of your sky, and like a cloud it passes. Grief is a storm that brings strength. Pain ah. Pain Is the angel that follows us from the garden of Paradise, reminding us that this, too, shall pass away. You have dont the world a good of fice if you see to It that one happy human being dwells in 1U. The good people tell us that the way to be hap py is to muke other people happy. That sounds easy, but did you ever try It? And did you ever succeed? The trouble la that wo make such tremendous mistakes about it. The thing we do to make Homebody hap ly is nearly always preciM-ly the very thing that the homebody doesn't want done. When I was a little g.rl they told me how easy It was to be happy by making- somebody else so, and, little miss that 1 was, I decided to add to rry heaped up store of joy in this way. The beautiful old lady's son was at home. There was a forest fire and the men went out to see about it. When they returned there was much talk of damage and danger, and in the midst of It a waistcoat was laid across the work basket for repairs. I loved the man to whom this bad ly used garment belonged and when I heard him ask about It In the morn ing 1 was sorry that it had not been, mended. It seemed to me that the beautiful old lady would never find time for the waistcoat, and I begin to wonder If I could mend It. The la k was lit erally peppered with little round holes. They were so small that I felt equal to the task of curing them. Hut they were many. I slipped away with the garment and took my little work basket out under the trees. Somebody had given mo a piece of pink cambric, and I determined to sacrifice this, on my altar of Happl ness To Othera Very caref jily I cut the round pink patches and. with careful, crooked white stitches set them on the black Burface. It too ka Ion gtlme, but at last It was finished, a labor of love. I hung the waistcoat In place and waited patiently for my happiness. At bedtime no one had noticed the work I had wrought. 6tlll I- was patient and went to sleep with my dear little secret hid away in my soul. THe first stir In the gray morning waked me. I believed in the happiness that was coming. The man I loved was. talking cheer ily In the next room. Presently I heard an exclamation of wonder, and then "Why, mammy, whatever have you been doing to my vest?" In the name of the world! ans wers the beautiful old lady, "waht does all it? Well, who ever " "It's a pretty looking mess" began the heavier voice in a tone of dis pleasure. "Never mind, laddie, It was the child trying to please you. I meant tc put In a new back, but you must thank her and let It stay ihls way for awhile." J'he child's disappointment wa vry bitter, but sh3 bore it. She re celved her thanks gravely and with dignity. But she never forgot her dls appointment. Ana sometimes, even now, when helping turns out to be nothing but meddling shp and her soul have a quiet laugh together and one whispers to the other, "pink patches." It seems to me that the best way to make others happy Is to be happy yourself. Genuinely happy, mind you, not smugly self-satisfied. I do believe in Joy. A really good life fairly radi ates it. To be sure we have all known some excessively good people who were wofully miserable. I think it used to be fashionable. What a time some of them must have had trying to be wretched in this sort of a world! It is more a matter of livers than of souls, I think. There is bound to be something the matttr with the en lightened human being who Is habit ually unhappy. It seems to me that helpfulness Is quality that naturally radiates from a nature that Is true to its own self. It just goes out and whoever comes that way Is the bttter for It. I don't believe In meddling with people's lives and souls and notions of right and wrong. This spiritual surgery requires greater skill than is usually brought to it. You can't "yank" a man out from his sins and save him just because you like a starry crown. That is .well, malprac tice. It is a foolish thing to think that your friends must sit down and let you charm your notions Into their heads. Sometimes, most times, the very kindest thing is to let people alone. It takes a whole lot of letting alone, too. It seems to me that from so many ways of helping the people get an idea of weakness and dependence. If you could just be something very fine your own self, would nt that In spire others to be something very fine, too. and is not that the best yy to help? Show them that the thing can be done, let them see that it is worth while, and there is no more trouble. Convince a man that what yoa have found is better than what he has and he is with you. But logic won't con vince him. nor famine, nor the sword. The thing that you have found. Its very own self must convince htm. It must be demonstrated In you. That is the only way. If we are to get along comfortably i nthis world we m usdto a whole lot of trusting. We must trust God aad HOW IS TOtR DIGERTIOST Krs.

Politicians Do Kot Know How to Take the Situation, Bat Woodward Is Gathering Strength. Atlanta Correspondence Birmingham Age-Herald. Jim Woodward's double somersault has got Atlanta by the ears this week and nobody can think or talk any thing else but the race for mayor and its possible result. Whether Woodward's withdrawal and return were sincere or the shrewdest political game that has been played la Atlanta In some years, is a mooted question. Each view has its adherents. Whether so Intended or not. It had the effect of the latter. Withdrawing before his case came to trial in recorder's court. It had the effect of inducing his political enemies in their sympathy to request that the whole proceeding be dropped. While this was not done It amounted to the same thing for he simply forfeited a small fine deposited very much as a bond and was not required to appear in court where the details of his esca pade would have become public prop erty. That opportunity for hi enemies to have made campaign material having passed, he came back to the race in rather a dramatic manner which gave his followers new political life and hope. There have been various re ports as to the size of the crowd which gathered on Wednesday night to de mand his return to the race. From the best evidence obtainable it ap - pecus io nave oeen aouui s,uvw per sons, approximately the following which has stuck to Jim Woodward through thick and thin. In fortune and misfortune. But the spirit of the crowd ap proached that of a Parisian commune, evidenced in Its invasion of the Capi tal City Club, where It went to fling taunts in the teeth of tho "kid-glove candidate," as the Woodward follow ers have denominated Robert E. Mai dox, and In Its attack upon The At lanta Georgian, whose purpose was thwarted by the timely arrival of the police. That night gave evidence of what may yet be expected before the cam paign Is over. It Is not unlikely that the Woodward leaders will have dif ficulty in preventing a certain element among his followers from leaving their mark somewhere about the city. The most remarkable feature of it all Is the seeming strength and con ftdeace which Woodward and his friends have gathered with his re entry into the race. He withdrew ap parently a beaten candidate; his fol lowers had declined to accept bets two to one on Maddox. He returned like a Caesar coming back to Romo, and they are now offering two to one on his success at the polls. This In the first time in years that Atlanta has entered Into a wide "pertf election. The negroes are going to vote. There are some 1,500 to 1,800 of them registered, and this vote Is going to count. Naturally both sides are going after It; have. In fact, al ready gene. So great has the change In the situation appeared that despite the fact that there are 14,000 white registered voters, observers declare that the candidate who succeeds in landing the negro vote Is going to win. It may not be so bad as that, still that is an interesting present viewpoint. Woodward has no organ the three daily papers of Atlanta are combined against him. But he has a campaign fund and his campaign documents will find circulation. Both sides are already well or ganized. HKAITH PLAN SUGGESTED State to Make an Arrangement as a College Does With Doctors to Keep tho Students Well. To the Editor of The Observer: I notice In your paper that there Is much criticism of Governor Glenn for his remarks concerning Dr. Stiles. You should, I believe, recognise 4 difference between the germ theory and the microbe theory. The mi crobe theory, as I understand It, Is that every place that Is not "as clean as a pin" Is a breeding place lor mi' crobes, consequently dangerous to health. Where is the home that is as clean (sanitary) as a pin?" Tho germ theory, as I understand, la that certain diseases are caused by germs. such as certain fevers. Governor Glenn possibly considered Dr. Stiles a microbe enthusiast. The thing to do is not to criticise. but to form some plan to overcome the deficiency. I would like to give plan that I have thought or for some time. It is to have the State to use tho system the colleges have adopted to par the doctors to keep the students welL instead of paying them to make them well. This could be done by levying a tax to furnish the means, and allowing the county commission ers or the township board of health to aouolnt the necessary doctors to take charge of the townships or dis tricts. I believe If Governor Kitchln should take as his specialty health of the State, as Governor Glenn took education as his, and call a confer ence of prominent doctors and law yers, and follow the above suggestion he would relieve two needs give s poor man proper attention, who would not get It if he had to pay the doc tor's bill; and pay the doctor who In many cases works for nothing or rather does not get anything. Also I believe It would pave the. way for better sanitation. K. GREENFIELD. Kernersvllle, Nov. itth. , Mnsiral Bntertalnment at Kaxton. Correspondence of The Observer. Maxton, Nov.. IT. Maxtoa people were given a treat last night at the graded school auditorium, the" enter tainment being under tho auspices of tho Ladles Aid Society of the Metho dist church of this place.

" 1 For a number of years after I be gan to farm I followed the old-time method of putting the fertiliser all under tha corn, planting on a level or higher, six by three feet, poshing the plant from tho start and making . a big stalk, hut the ears were few, and frequently small. I planted much corn in the spring and bought, much more corn the next spring, until final ly I was driven to the conclusion that corn could not be made on uplands ,ln this section, certainly not by the oia metnoa, exoept at a loss. I did . not lve up, however, for I knew that, the farmer who did not make his own corn never had suc ceeded, and never would, so I began to experiment First I planted low er, and the yield was better, but the stalk was still too large; so I discon tinued altogether the application of fertntaer before planting, sid, know ing that all crops should be fertilised as a side application, and applied the more soluble nitrate of soda later, be ing guided in this by the excellent results obtained from Its use as a top dressing for oats. Still, the yield, though regular, was not large, and the smallness of the stalk Itself now suggested that they should be planted thicker In the drill. This was Jone the next year, with results so satis factory that I continued from year to year to Increase the number of stalks and the fertiliser with which to sus tain them; also to apply nltarote of soda at last plowing, and to lay by early, sowing peas -broadcast. This method steadily increased the yield, until year before last (104). with corn eleven incres apart in six-foot rows, and $11 worth of fertilizer to the acre, I made eighty-four bushels average to the acre, several of my best acres making as much as 115 bushels. Last year (105) I followed the same method, planting the first week In April, seventy acres which had produced the year before Dounds seed cotton per acre. 1.900 land is sandy upland, somewhat roll ing. Seasons were very unfavorable, owing to the tremendous rains in Mav and the dry and extremely hot 1 owing to weather later. From June 1 2th to July Uth, the time when it most needed moisture, there was only five eights of an inch of rainfall here; yet with 17.01, cost of fertilizer, my yield was fifty-two bushels per acre. Rows were six feet and corn sixteen Inches In drill. With this method, on land that will ordinarily produce 1,000 pounds of seed cotton with 800 pounds of fer tilizer, fifty bushels of corn per acre should be made by using 200 pounds of cotton seed meal, 200 pounds of acid phosphate, and 400 pounds of Kalnlt mixed, or their equivalent In other fertilizer, and 12& pounds of nitrate of soda, all to be used as side application as directed below. On land that will make a bale and one-half of cotton per acre .when well fertilized, a hundred bushels of corn should be produced by doubling the amount of fertilizer above, except that 300 pounds of nitrate of soda should be used. In each case there should be lert on the land In corn stalks, peas, vines and roots, from $12 to lit worth of fertilising material per acre, beside toe great benefit to the land from so large an amount of vegetable matter. The place of this In the permanent in.,nv.nnt nf land can never be taken by commercial fertiliser, for It is absolutely Impossible to make lands rloh as long as they are tacaing m vegetable matter. Land should be thoroughly and deeply broken for corn, and this is the time in a system of rotation to deep en the soil. Cotton requires a mora compact soil than corn, and while a deep soil is essential to Its best de velopment. It will not produce as well oa loose, open land, where corn does best on land thoroughly broken. A deep soli will not only produce more heavily than a shallow soil with good .um ttnt It Will mng -n .-- mnr drv weather. mm w - . i. ...mrinr for the corn crop, land should be broken broadcast during the winter one-fourth deeper than It v,. k niawtd before, or If much .,.-. hi matter is being turned un der, it may be broken one-third deep er This Is as much deepening as land will usuajy stand in one year and produce well, though It may be continued each year, so long as much dead vegetable matter is wi ed under.

This should be from Juno 10th to 10th. un less season is very late, and corn should be hardly- bunching for taeseL Lay by early. More corn Is ruined by lte plowing than by lack of plow ing. This is when the ear is hurt Two good rains after laying by should make you a good crop of corn, and It will certainly make with much less rain than was required In the old way. The stalks thus raised are very small and do not require anyth'ng like the moisture even In proportion to size, that Je " necessary for large sappy stalks. They may, therefore, be left much thicker In the row. This Is no new process. It has long been a custom to cut back vines and trees in order to Increase the yield and quality of fruit; and so long as you do not hold back your corn. It will go, like mine so long went, all to stalk. Do not -be discouraged by the looks of your corn during the process of cultivation. It will yield out of all proportion, to its appearance. Large stalks cannot make large yields, ex cept with extremely favorable sea sons, for they cannot stand a lack of moisture. Early applications of man ure co to make larae stalka Which i yOU do not1 want, and the plant food tois.is all thus used us before the ear. which you do want, is made. Tall stalks not only will not produce well themselves, but will not allow you to make the pea vines, so necessary to the Improvement of land. Corn rais ed by this method should never grow over seven and one-half feet high, and the ear should be near to the ground. I --consider the final application of nitrate of soda an essential point In this ear-making process. It should always be applied at last plowing and unmixed with other fertilisers. I am satisfied with one ear to the stalk unless a prolific variety Is plant ed, and leave a hundred stalks for every bushel that I expect to make. I find the six-foot row easiest to culti vate without injuring the corn. For fifty bushels to the acre, I leave It sixteen Inches apart; for seventy-five bushels to. the acre, twelve Inches apart, and for one hundred bustwls, eight Inches apart. Corn should be planted from four to six Inches below the level, and hid by from four to six Inches above. Ho hoeing should be necessary, and middles may be kept clean until time to. break out, by using harrow or by running one shovel furrow In centre of middle and bedding- on that with one or more rounds of turn plow. I would advise only a few acres tried by this method the first year, or until you are familiar with Its appli cation. Especially is it hard, at first, to fully carry out the stunting process, where a whole crop Is involved, and this is the absolutely essential part of the process. This method I have applied, or seen applied, successfully to all kinds of land In this section, except wet lands and moist bottoms, and I am confi dent it can be made of great benefit throughout the entire Booth. In the middle West, wheat corn Is so prollflo and profitable, smd where, unfortunately for us, so much of ours has been produced, the stalk does not naturally grow large. As we come South Its size Increases, at the ex pense of the ear, until In Cuba and Mexico it la nearly all stalk (witness Mexican varieties). The purpose of this method is to eliminate this tendency of corn to overgrowth' at the expense of yield in this Southern climate. By this method I have made my corn crop more profitable than my cotton crop, and mjer neighbors and friends who havs adopted It have, without exception, derived great ben efit therefrom. Plant your own seed. I would not advise a change of seed and method the same year, as you will not then know from which you havs derived the benefit I have used three va rieties, and all have done welt I have never -used this method for late plant ing. In fact, I do not advise the late! Is Not Merely Yet it occasions Also it leads to Hon and dyspepsia, It does this by duplicating' Raton's dlirestivs process, at Its best.
