A cooniry boy's lack of oppor tunity is his best equipment for thp serious r ts ugele of life This sounds paradoxical, hut it is true It is just as true . as the opposite pioposition, that tbe greatest hin d ranees a c ity boy has to contend with are the opportunities which beset him when young and pur sues him till be - begins the real businessof life a business which each individual must carry on for himself. For tbe city boy every thing is mad as easy as possible Pven pleasure becomes to him an old story before be is out of his teens. Brought up in the fever ish rush of a place where great things are happening day by day, be sees the world with a cynic's eyes and despises tbe small things which, like the brick in a house, ga to the upbuilding of characters and careers. He be lieves in using large markers in the game of life; for peonies and small units of value be has little taste x nd sctut regard. The conditions surrounding iapcouutry boy are as different as possible. There is a great deal of regular "vork that every country bo .must do. and this regularity of employment, most ly out of. doors, inculcates indus trious habits, while it contributes to a physical development which in after years is just as valuable as any athletic : training that can be bad. . He can not run as fas, perhaps, as 'hose trained by a system; he may rot be able to jump so high or so far, or excel in any of the sports upon which we bestow so much time and from which we get so much of pleasure, bu his development en bleshim to buckle down to tbe hard work in which hours are consumed and from which very little or co immediate pleasure is extracted. , His strength in ay be something like that of the car; h-urfi0. but the cart horse is to be fireferrej wberealongaud steady nnii u'r..iii Tha thnnoi. brtd race horse has a fine flight of speed and canters with delight ful lightness, and grace along the park bridle pal us. but the heavy i work is tbe work most in demand and for that we want the draft ah imals every time. Enthusiasm is the spur fo en Ideavor, and at the same time it is the savijr jf life, says Brandur's Magazine. Toe country boy whose ambition has takeu him to town comes filled with . enthusiasm Even tbe little things are novel lies to him, and as he accomplisb es this or that he feelsThat he is doiog something not only inter estiog, but valuable. His simple tastes have not been spoiled by a i multiplicity of gratifications, and ! so he is glad of everything good that comes in his way. At 30. if be Kads a cleau life, be has uuoie of the boy In him than his city cousin has left at 15 - He does wh it is before him because it is his duty, while- tbe other is too apt cyiiically to question the val ue of doing anything and ask What is the use?" Of the men who have achieved great prominence and high influ AftAira f state, tbe country boys are at least twenty to ooe oyer tbe city lads. Nowa days, indeed, our cynical cjly lads look upon men who take au active iQterest in public affairs as rather low fellows and quite be neath their association and no tice But the country boys are at the top in other lines of endeav Or. Io finance they are pre emi Lent, and the great bauk presi dents today in the great cities nearly all learned to read and to cipher in country scnools, where birch and ferule bad not ouccumb ed to the civilizing influences of scUintific pedagogy. Ourgreat railways were in n.e main built by them, and today the ad minis t ration of these great companies aro in greit measure from farms and country villages, from places where work egao in early iuian cy, and a sense of duty developed while still the lisp of childhood lingered. Some city boys, however,, are of euch sturdy stuff, and endow ed with such natural gifts, that tney succeed by reason of their inherent superiority; others sue ceed abundantly because they i havfl used thtir rinnr! unities George:N.OwsljtRsdlaitM hie Lave pur sued the same cours whi:h ena bles so many country boys to win iiDBanrl fortune. Th more hci or to tnem tor naviog r.urviv -a their t6o greatopportunities.- But the country boy when he comes to town reaches out for the high places; though not all find seats of tbe mighty nearly all of tbe ex alted stations are filled in the end by men of country birth andcoun try rearing, for they usually start out with the sound thfO'V that what is worth bavins is worth asking for. St Louis Ra pub'ic. Prosperity With a Pinching ' End to It. The country is prosperous out not everybody in it is ptosperiug Tbe clerk who gets $10 a week and lives in h. hall bedroom and finds his board and: rent raised because of the increased price of meataod coal, dojsoot glow with a seose of prosperity. The housewife who has .to pay 30 and 35 cents a pound for beef ... thatcott 18 aod 20 ceats yfew months ago is not i or pressed by her household's. bbare of the p.ios perity. The workingman whose wages have remained stationary while the expense of keeping his fa mi y. supplied with the necessaries of life has grown rapidly asd greatly would like to have for himself a little more of the .nation al prosperity which inflames the stump speaker to rhetorical en thusiasm. The earnings of the trusts have swollen tremendously; tne earnings of labor hardly at all. It is a fact not to be blinked at i ... that the vauntings about pros perity, however real that pros perity is within its limits, have a mocking sound to large numbers of bard working and frugal pea pie, v ho find it difficult to make both ends meet Monopoly is prospenog as it never did before The trusts are sellibg for high prices at home what they sell for low prices h broad. It Is tbe tariff that empowers them to practice this robbery, which goes far to account for the want of propor tion between wages and the cost .... - of living. And President Roosevelt has just assured the trusts that they need feel no fpr that, he will dV anything to-dapiive them of their tariff shelter. That gives satisfaction to tbe trusts, if course, but how ddes it affect the feelings of the mat in the kail bed room. w Yo; If Journal Is Politeness Declining A few clays ago we were on a crowded tra:u. In afew hours we would be iu our office, and tne printer would be calling for copy. With note book and pencil we pro oeeded to set our brain to work in the preparation of this copy The sun has been known to halt in a.jd heaven, but what editor has ever dared to halt when a foreman was Waiting for "copy?" We had not been writing long when two ladies halted by our side with that resigned happy look which reats on thi. face of a passen. ger who is mentally temarking: can stand, but 'I believe taat you will arise." We arose, and through the help of the porter, we succ ed ed in uncovering a seat covered with sundry baggage. We proceeded with our writing. Tbe train stopped at a station. Happening to look up we saw two ladies enteriug the car. As straight as a bee flies to its tree, they went to the onlv man iu tht car that -was busy and halted at his Seat with that afore mentioned look on their faces. -We asked them to please tike their seat, and going back to the coal bunker, we scribbled away. Divers thoughts meandered through our mind. We did not remember a single word of thanks. We asked ourselves the ques tion: "Is politeness declining? We felt like a simpleton, and then asked ourselves: "Is there not a time when politeness ceases to be virtue?"-Kaleigh Christian Ad vocaie.

The following in teres. ticg let ter gives tome liiiormuticu of Value upon the above subject: " NEWBERN. N- IV I . tsept. 25, 1902. Dear Sir: I am pleased to le port that tbe experiment of build ing roads oy tbe mixture of sand and clay has proven very suc- ssfui iu mis county (Craven), and the results are highly satis factory. Five weeks ago we commenced ork Willi this method aud we now have two miles ot toad graded to a uui lo t m w id in, ihoi oua hly d i tched. with lead . ditcues io take off all itie water from the road. We re alize tuat tM mailer of drainage is oue ol l no mofti esseHial feai u its ol rotvi building. A mile and a quarter of tbe road, has been clayed to a depth. uf 12 mcbeji, witu good clay (ibis was formerly sand road), and ub or ttiree inches of sand spread ovar the clay. For some- lime tne travel cut and rutted the road and mane a very rough suriace, but it is now packing aud becoming hird, and requires very little attention, smoothing up and placicg more sand where needed.' The first half mile laid is now a good, bard substantial road. It produces a feeling very much like mucadam road in rid :-.... . . ing over it. . The cosi-jpf this piece of road 's much 'trr'ii-,r tin it otherwise would bi; oxi account of. the dis lance we are compelled to haul tbe clay; in fact the cost of haul ing the clay) was fully eighty, per cent, of tbe entire cost of build ing the road. About $6C0.' per mile is the to tal cost of bailding 'this road; but other roads is; th county, nearer be supply clay, can be just as satisfacorii;' bailt for $150 or 1200 per mile' f;; ' W-i are ' ylmuch pleased with tne sand ciay process ana are ex tendiDg the work as fast as possi bl under the circumstances. Yours truly, William Dunn. In almost eny of the eastern or middle counties of North Carol i na, where a good supply of clay is obtainable, the cost, of building these saud clay roads should not exceed $150 to $250 per mile, and when we consider their wearing and lasting qualities (20 to 25 years), it will be easy to recognize tneir great economy toourpeo pie. . New Use for Refined Paraf- . fine Wax. A Ee.w rnd important use for Bo fined Paraffke Wax seems to have been discovered by a prominent resident cf Ohio, living near Lan castt r, who iiad two - trees badly damaged by storm, one beiug a maple aud the otber an apple. In each c;sse a large limB waSsbroken down from tbe trunk, but still at tached o it. The limbs were prop ped up and fastened securely with straps, very much as a broken leg might be fastened with splints, and then melted refined was pour ed into and over all the cracks The "surgical operation" was en tirely successful. The Paraffine pi evented the escape of the sap, kept out the rain and moisture which would have rotted the treos, prevented the depredations of in sects, and tbe limbs seem thus far to be perfectly re-attached to the trees. The Way It Goes It is amazing to see a crowd of men stand patiently,for two hours ou a hillside in the hot sun and listen to an indifferent speaker wander over the history of the State for the past forty years, bringing to view tbe same old jokes tnat have done service since Vance's day, and yet these meo never murmer. and on next Sunday these same gentle men fall asleep sweetly under the preaching of a man who knows bow to use tbe English lan guage, and who is giving them something upon wbich they may reallv feed. But that is tbe way it goes. Charity and Children. Completing the Trust Circle While it has become a diffic. It matter to surprise t;e public tjj any new statement of fuci ; gad ng the Trusts, ibe people will find foosjfor thought in this ot .

This is a new form of tyranny on the part of the Trusts. Tbf Beef Trust has said that no man shall do business for it that does not obey its orders as to prices, and the Coal Trust has assumed that it has a divine right to do business without regard to what the masses want or are entitled to, wljile the great majority of these modernized monopolies op erate so as to get more than their products wduld be worth under normal conditions of trade and production. But the Steal Trust does not propose to stop with this direct assault upon the wealth and prosperity of the coun try. It has larce collateral iuter ests. such as railroads, ore mines and shipping. It will sell no rails to build rival roads. It is a logi cal conclusion that someday it would sell no steel for vessels to ventsr into competition with its boats or structural steel to be used for any. purpose by a compe titor iu business. Even iu the main case explained, if the state ments given out by the company can be proved, there is just sucb t conspiracy as the Government is after, and the chance should not be overlooked From the Detroit Free Press Live By Work, Not By Wits; "We neetf to get our people back to the idea that they must earn a living, not secured by doubtful methods 'and modern tricks of trade," says C. E, Vaw ter.'of the Miller Manual School Happy will be our beloved South when such . schools of in dustry shall be built up for all; when our young men learn that the highest type of man' ood is shown in him who by honest in dustry supplies tbe wants of him self and th jse dependent on him. It is a most lamentable fact that many, very many, of our young men after leaving school, have no way of making a living unless they go to teaching. The result is that we have a very large class of young men waiting for something to turn up, wno think they are educated, who are too proud to work and who are too poor to live without work. The few who succeed in getting an office or win ni ng a-place that pays make tbe exception. The many who must earn a livelihood by the sweat of the brow make the rule. Let us, then,-educate the masses so that they can the better gain their living, Let this be the rule; .the exception will take care of itself. With trained, educated, think ing, reading workmen, v we will have a rich, prosperous countt v. otted a! i over with lovely, happy homes, with no place for the bar room and tbe gambling hell fc-uch a movement would indeed be the greatest temperance work this country has ever known.
