No, he wasn't sick, but he was so

you like to look at photographs? Most
everybody does, I guess. Walt till I

; Them's twins. There was two of
them. They looked Just like you see
them there. One of them is my hus

Is now. Sort of creepy, ain't it, not to
know whether your-own husband is
one twin or the other? One of them
died when he was sixteen, and that
broke the set I think It is the sweet
est picture in the album, they look so
simple and harmless. Just like two lit
tle calves. Gnin'nia Jones used to
make their clothes herself. You'd nev

lay the cloth In two thicknesses and
cut put two suits at once. 'If one of
them bad been u girl she couldn't have
done It. Turn over the page.
That's the gentleman Aunt Jane
Dearly married He looks like a col

refined and meek and so eloquent at
prayer meeting. But hg wasn't a pro
fessor; be peddled Grlgg's Infallible
cure for hog cholera and lectured on
temperance. He was awful poor in his
health, and the minute Aunt Jane set
eyes on him she made up ber mind to
marry htm. Sbe was forty, and she
usually got what she wanted, and ev
erybody said it was a thousand
chances to one that sbe would get him.

for six weeks, but sbe fojd out he
had a wife and six chlldreu't Boston.
so she didn't marry him. He was the
sweetest singer! You'd never Imagine
he -bad a wife and stepchildren If you
could have beard him sing. Ain't It
awful how sinful people can be an"
vet look so Innocent? Gertie took on
awful when she heard the facts about
him, and she .wouldn't get engaged to
anybody else for a long time, and you

PLANET PROBLEMS.
We Really Know Very Little About the
Celestial Bodies.
"The amount of ignorance not yet
removed concerning the planets Is very
great," writes E. S. Grew. "We do
not know, for example, whether the
planet Venus rotates. If it does it may
possibly have a life and a vegetation
like our own, though we suspect that
It Is clothed In eternal cloud. Of
Saturn's rings we cannot say whether
tbey consist of millions of tiny moons
like brickbats or whether they may be
even smaller still a veil of shining
dust. Of Jupiter we can only say that
It Is covered with clouds, though of
tbelr substance we know nothing,
and; according to Professor Lowell and
Sir William Huggins, some of the
bands we see on it may be rifts In the
clouds- revealing the body of the plan
et Little lines crisscross these bands.
Photographs of Jupiter taken at Flag
staff observatory seem to indWIite that
these lines, too, are the upper clouds
of Jubiter.
"But whenever we see a planet we
see It badly. Even Mars, the most
clearly revealed of them all, Is con
stantly obscured by a refracting haze,
so that even of the famous 'canals,
though nearly 500 In -number, only a
few are perceptible at a time, and an
unskilled observer would probably not
make them out at all. Sandstorms,
sometimes snowstorms, sweep the sur
face of the planet, and because the
winds of Mars are very gentle and
slow moving these occurrences take a
long time to pass by." London Family
Herald.
HE AMUSED THE CUBS.
Then the Young Lions Took a Turn at
Amusing Him.
A negro attached to an African hunt
ing party met with a curious adven
ture, says an English paper. Wander
ing one day from camp, be surprised
two Hon cubs at play and thoughtless
ly commenced to amuse tbem. He was
only too successful. The big cubs gam
boled fearlessly about him and to bis
dismay refused to desist when he
wished to leave them.
Realizing the danger to which be
would be exposed should tbe mother
appear, be began to run, but tbe cubs
refused to be shaken off and In their
play scratched his legs iu fearful
fashion.
That the creatures were thoroughly
enjoying themselves was evident from
their manifestations of delight, and
before long their unusual cries brought
a lioness leaping to the spot.
Trembling in every limb. -the negro
faced the growling animal, while the
cubs.-continued to Jump up at bim,
eager for further caresses. The en
raged lioness moved round uneasily
In a circle, man and beast keeping
their eyes steadily on each other. Sev
eral times the lioness crouched to
spring, but the man, from fear, never
shifted his gaze.
At length, after what seemed an age,
when the negro was reudy to drop
from exhaustion, the animal suddenly
called her cubs away and disappeared
into the surrounding scrub.
An Artist's Struggles.
Professor vou Herkouier. the famous
painter, had such a struggle to gain
a living In his early days that bad It
not been for his Inexhaustible stock
of patience and self confidence be
would probably have abandoned art
entirely. He sold his first picture- for
2 guineas and later on earned for a
short time a couple of pounds woekly
for a woodcut wblcb he supplied to
a comic paper. This modest salary
coming to a stop, he was at bis wits'
end to know what to do. He applied
to a troupe of minstrels for an en
gagement as zither player, but In vain,
and then took to designing carets.
For some years he battled with pov
erty, achieving no success until he
obtained employment on a weekly il
lustrated JournaL-Londoo Globe.

PHYSICAL FEATS.
Man's Limited Powers Compared With
Those of 8om Animals.
By means of mechanical devices,
tne product of his own brain, man
can sweep along a prepared track
at nearly a hundred miles an hour,
over the surface of the sea at thir
ty miles an hour or through the air
at seventy-five; also he can build
towers more than 200 times his
own height or dive into the earth
about 700 times his own height.
But strip him of his machines and
machine made instruments and he
compares rather poorly in the mat
ter of physical achievements and
capabilities with certain of the low
er animals. .
Uonsider, lor instance, mans
sprinting or running powers. His
best speed for a mile is some four
minutes twelve and three-quarter
seconds, which gives a total of
about fourteen miles an hour. The
gray wolf lopes along at an easy
twenty and thinks nothing of doing
sixty miles in a night. The hunted
fox has been timed to run two
miles at a speed of twenty-six miles
an hour. A race horse at full speed
travels at thirty-two miles, while a
greyhound, which is, 60 far as is
known, the swiftest of all four leg
ged creatures, runs at thirty-four
miles.
Man also falls behind in jump
ing. Roughly speaking, six feet in
height and twenty-three in width
are the limits of man's achieve
ments in this line. A red deer has
been known to dear a wall ten feet
high, the chamois can do at least a
foot better, while the springbok of
South Africa will shoot ten feet up
in the air just for the fun of the
thing.
Some of the beasts of prey are
even more wonderful in their ath
letic achievements. The black ja
guar, for example, can reach a
branch fourteen feet from the
ground. The greatest jumper in
the world is the kangaroo. The
sort known as the "old man" has
been seen to clear dcadwood fences
ten to twelve feet high, while it can
leap with case a width of fifty to
sixty feet. The record width clear
ed by a horse is about thirty-seven
feet, while the ostrich in running
clears twenty-five feet at a stride.
Fish also are of some account in
the athletic field. To see a salmcn
leap up, perpendicular falls five or
six feet high is a remarkable sight.
Many of the predatory fishes can
travel at the speed of a torpedo
boat.
In the matter of mero muscular
strength man is not quite so far be
hind the rest of the animal world,
for trained athletes have achieved
wonderful feats of lifting. Still,
where is the man who could run up
a mountain side carrying two others
as heavy as himself? A grizzly
bear has been known to carry a
bullock twice his own weight up an
incline of one in three. Harper's.
The Pianist's Vacation.
An interesting story has got into
circulation concerning a fumous pi
anist. Unable to tear himself al
together away from his art while
enjoying a rest in Switzerland, he
had a piano taken to a secluded
chalet in a wood and every day
went there olonc to solace himself.
By chance one day some one strayed
into the wood and, hearing the-
music, spent a pleasant hour tlnnk
ing in the sounds irora tne cioseiy
shuttered chalet Next day he went
again with some friends. At the
end of a week the virtuoso discov
ered that a big crowd was enjoying
his performance. At first he ten
inclined to blame this intrusion on
his solitude, but better thoughts
prevailed, and during theremain(kr
of his slay he threw open the shut
ters and played his very best. Lon

SYSTEM ON A DINING CAR.
Every
Inch of 8pace In Its
Little
Kitchen la Economized.
The kitchen of a dining car is a
striking example of what can be
done in economizing space. Every
inch is used.
Water tanks are suspended from
the ceiling. One wall is lined 'with
the big range and heating ovens,
whilo on the other are storage
boxes, receptacles for pans, pots
and other utensils and a row of
cupboards up under the ceiling.
At one end, between the kitchen
and the dining car proper, is a lit
tle pantry, which serves as a sort of
vestibule. That is where the wait
ers place their orders jm3 receive
dishes.
Every separate article of food
and equipment has its place, says
the Woman's Home Companion.
Every corner and nook in the car
has a particular function. The sil
ver is in one place, the milk and
cheese in another, the meat in an
other, and so on through tho list
Everything perishable is kept in a
refrigerator.
While the Car is in action the
conductor from his position be
tween dining room and kitchen
keeps his eyes upon the ten tables
and endeavors to see that none of
the diners is neglected. For all the
supplies on the car he is held to
strict account. On his trip sheet,
as it is called, is put a list of every
thing taken on tbe car when it
starts out. A record of all articles
sold is entered upon the sheet, and
when the car comes home, again all
that has not been sold must be on
hand.
The equipment of a dining car
conforms to standards, just as Ho
locomotives, trucks, Tails and ties.
Dishes aro made according to es
tablished patterns, ench piece of
china having the company's mono
gram upon it. The sumo is true of
the linen, silver, menu holders
everything. Thus a loss can be eas
ily traced. The waiters nre allowed
$20 a month for breakage. All
damage in excess of that, though,
they have to pay for, and the cost
is divided among them equally.
Gallant Victor Hugo.
During the latter years of his
long life Victor Hugo was yery fond
of surveying mankind from the van
tage ground of tbe top of an omni
bus. He used to make long excur
sions through the gay city perched
on the top of the homely bos, which .
he seemed to prefer to any other
vehicle. An amusing and charac
teristic anecdote of the great poet,
who was most courteous and atten
tive to the lovely sex, it related by
renew. One fine day, as he was
enjoying a nua under tnese condi
tions, a fascinating young woman
climbed up . to the summit of the
tramcar on which he was seated and
steered her way toward the only va
cant place, which happened to be
the one next to him. sue was
about to take possession of it when
a sudden jolt sent her instead into
Victor Hugo's lap. Aa soon as she
had recovered herself the pretty
girl turned to the poet and, her fair
cheeks suffused with crimson, said,
"I beg your pardon, monsieur."
"And I," ha replied gaUantly,
"thahlc you, mademoiselle." -

North Carolina Needs Immigration.
Extracts from Ad.lreta of Claroaeo Poe, Edi
tor ot The Progressive Farmer and Qazotte
Before tbe North Carolina Press Associa
tion, Wrlghtsvllle, N. C, June 9, 1010.
North Carolina needs and must
have a largor proportion of white
people. The whole South, in fact,
is still too sparsely settled. Our
eleven Southern States, excluding
Texas, support only 10,000,000
people of both races, and only
10,000,000 white people, while the
same area in Europe supports
over 160,000,000 white people.
And it must be remembered that
Hp to a certain point which we
shall not reach for centuries yet,
and other things being equal,
prosperity depends upon density
of population. If you owned the
continent of North America, but
lived on it alone, or if a hundred
or a thousand men owned tho
continent and lived on it alone,
it would be worth practically
nothing to them. Population
makes wealth, provided that It is
normally intelligent and efficient.
TttE SORT OF IMMIGRATION
WE NEED.
Of course, we do not want the
lower-class European immigra
tion. If we can got immigra
tion from England, Scotland, Ira
land, Germany, Holland, Sweden,
etc., the countries whose blood
has gone to make up pur vigor
ous American stock it would be
of great help to us. : Wo are all
of ns such immigrant ourselves,
or descendants of iuinuirrants.
From Some countries vt Southern!
and Eastern Europe, on the other
hand, immigration is of a decid
edly lower order and objection
able because of a low standard of
intelligence and efficiency.
On the very same principle,
however, immigration of a nor
mal or high standard of intelli
gence and efficiency is desirable.
Such lmtnlgratipn can be had, and
ought to be had in some meas
ure perhaps from our English,
Scotch, Dutch, and Irish kinsfolk
across the sea but chiefly from
our Northern and Western States.
For years now hundreds of thou
sands of the most enterprising
and progressive fanners in the
Middle West have been going in
to Canada with its long hard
winters and bitter climate, not
only giving up American citizen
ship, but actually paying two to
three times as much for land in
fit InkUinltiilils mntnn mm l.J

in the South. Wo ought to have
bronght these men to the South.
They know our institutions, our
language, they are industrious,
thrifty, wide-awake, and many of
them are of Southern ancestry
who should naturally come back
home. Let's bring them back.
IMMIGRATION TO SOLVE THE
BACK PROBLEM.
If there were no other reason
for advocating such Immigration
from tbe North and West, I
should favor it as our surest de-
liveranoe from our race problem.
The proportion of negroes to
whites is too Urge in every South
ern State, and my hope Is that
ultimately the tides of migration
and immigration will equalize
population until the proportion of
negroes in no State will exceed
20 per ceut. We must train the
negro the more ignorant be is
tbe greater the burden on the
South but at-best the process
will be slow, and at present it
would probably not be too much
to say that in considering our
whole popu'atlon, including our
great constructive leaders and
captains of industry, the average
negro in North Carolina in econo
mic worth and efficiency is only
half aa useful as the average white
man. . In other worda. In rating
general average of efficiency we
should put the white man at 100
and the negro at 50, so that a

: two WATS TO BOLD CT
- WORTH CABOUSA.
There ere Just two great ways
to build up North Carlina. First
and of paramount importance is
the way which Governor Aycock
emphasized unceasingly in his ad
ministration the Education of all
our people and I should only
supplement this by putting more
earnest emphasis upon practical
education, education that trains
for efficiency, not education suit
ed to the urban ceuters of Europe
and the North, but education
suited - to the needs of a great,
awakening agricultural Common
wealth such as ours is and must
be.
And second only to education
which Governor Aycock empha
sized, is Immigration which Gov
ernor Glenn set o..t to further,
but to which the State did not
respond because It was not made
clear that the immigration was to
be of the right sort.
4,000,000 INSTEAD OF 1,200,000
WHITE PEOPLE.
. Now let Us start right not by
seeking immigrants from South
ern r Europe, but by advertising
our resources to the thrifty, en
terprising and progresssve farm
ers of the North and West men
of our own stock who now only
need an invitation to make them
come, riinerson was right when
he said that "every man who
comes into a city with any
purchasable talent or skill in him
gives to every man's labor in the
city a new worth," and if an igr
norant negro slave in the old days
was worth $1,000, certainly we
may assume that a thrifty and
intelligent white Westerner,
bringing not only himself, but in
most cases substantial accumula
tions as well, should bo worth
many times as' much, as an asset
to the State.
The last census year North
Carolina had only 1,200,000 white
people. It should have 4,000,000.
Consider for a moment how much
uvete influential our papers would
be, how much more important
every institution in the State
would be, how much more varied
would be our industries, how
much better would be our schools
and. roads and railroads, how
much more attractive would be
country life in our thickly settled
communities and how much easier
it would be to get telephones and
water-works and trolley lines and
local libraries and all the advan
tages of twentieth century lifel
Let us take as our watchword
"Education and Immigration
"
A DREAM. OF NORTH CAROLINA U
FITCKK.
For seventy years now North
Carolinians have been going West
to build up the new States of that
great empire. Now let us wel
come back their children and
neighbors to holp us build here a
great, prosperous and populous
Commonwealth, where the masses
of the people trained to as high
standards of' efficiency as any
where in the world, shall develop
a symmetrical and well rounded
civilization ; a splended and force
ful democracy of trained, intelli
gent and thrifty home-owners
from among whom shall come not
only A Jefferson and a Marshall,
not only a Janscs J. Hill and A
Thomas A. Edison and A. Seaman
A. Knapp, not only men whom all
the nation shall know as leaders
In industry and in public affairs,
but poets and seers, sculptors and
artiste if not a Titian at least a
Reynolds or a Millet, if not a
Michael Angelo at least A St.
Gaudens or a Ward, If not A
Shakespeare at least A Browning
or a Tennyson, if not a Savonarola,
at least some great religious lead
er who shall pot the church into
vital relations to modern thought
and give 'it A new baptism of
spiritual power U these until
North Carolina ahall stand forth
as baring developed the beet-
rounded civilization of which any
American State can boast.
