THE PASSING OF THE NEIGHBOR.
Hilda Blcbmond In The Designer. ,
'Yes, I suppose it would be de
lightful for some reasons to live
where life is not quite so strenuous."
said the woman from the large city
tnougntruiiy, "out in a town like
this the neighbors know everything
that is going: on. I could not endure
the f amiliarity'-i that prevails in small
places; Then there would be a con
stant gossip. I could never stand it
for more than a week.
The "town like this" was a small
city of nine thousand inhabitants,
and the women who lived in it has
tened to say, "My dear ignorant
child, don't you know that there are
more neighbors ? We are so citified
that we strictly attend to our own
affairs and ignore the people living
near us. I only wish I had one good
old-time neighbor to chum with.
Last winter a baby was born in the
house next door, and it was three
months old before I knew of its exis
tence. I have never had it in my
arms yet. In the good old days, the
mother would have come flying over
here to ask what to do for colic or
rash, for she is a young thing ; but
nowadays mothers refuse to allow
old ladies to handle the wonderful
babies. The times are sadly out of
joint in many ways, but if we could
have neighbors again, everything
else could go. I, for one, could get
on without a great many of the
'modern improvements' if I could
have my neighbors back."
There was a time when people
were so sympathetic and friendly
that everybody did know everybody's
affairs, but what of that? If you
were in sickness or trouble some
body ran in to tidy up the house and
keep the children within bounds;
while cookies and bread and pies
mysteriously appeared in the pantry.
Those days are past and gone for
most communities, unless it be in
regions remote from the advanced
civilization of the hour. If you have
sickness or trouble you have to look
out for yourself. Oh, to be sure,
people come in and say, "I wish'
there was something I could do,"
which means nothing at all in most
cases. Ladies on their way to recep
tions make sick calls m their best
clothes to save time, and murmur
the conventional phrase, but who
could ask a woman in a party dress
to rescue the baby from his peaceful
dabbling in the bath tub or sweep
up the crumbs off the sitting-room
floor?
"Every one for himself," is the
motto we live by in the progressive
and, in many respects, quite heart-
ess days.
Last winter a lady took sick while
her husband was away, from home,
and for two days everything went to
pieces in the home. She was a new
comer in the town" and the children
were too small to be of much help,
so she was forced to suffer alone.
The lady in the next door did come
in to say, "It's too bad. If the wo
man we hire to do cleaning comes
to-morrow, we will let you have her
to help you out a few hours. Our
work is not so pressing." And this
when the hungry children were really
crying for something to eat ! There
were three able-bodied women m tne
amily of the caller, anyone of whom
micrht have cooked a simple meal
and put the house to rights, but that
formal call was all the attention tney
naid that suffering neighbor. The
sick woman was amply able to have
hired hem if she could have obtained
it, but as it was she was forced to
wait until her husband came nome,
with onlv such help as her little chil
dren could give. Of course, by this
time the house-keeping had lapsed so
ong that everything was m a dread

Truly the times are out of joint.
Nowadays the farmer employs a I
trained nurse if sickness invades the I
family, just as the city brother does,
and the old habit of the neighbors
taking turns supplying the afflicted
family with bread or diet for the in
valid has gone the.way of the tallow
candle and fire-place. They are all
out of date.
And what have we gained ? Well,
that i3 as one looks at the matter. If
being "let alone" is desirable, then
we have gained a great deal. We
are surely not called on to bring our
own home remedies for ailing babies
just in the midst of our own work,
nor is our own night's rest ever dis
turbed because we sit up with a sick
neighbor. Our whole duty is done
when we look sympathetic and say,
Isn t there something 1 can do?
f there is, don t' hesitate to call on
me," as we rapidly move toward the
door.
But we have lost a great deal by
the passing of the neighbor. The
sweet old time love and sympathy
and helpfulness have faded almost
out of existence. If you are fortun
ate enough to live in a community
where neighbors still exist, "Grapple
them to your heart with hooks of
steel," for they are fast disappear
ing, and disappearing completely,
from the face of the earth. '
The poor, abuse good old-times !"
here is much that can be said for
hem.
A Move! Plan For Marriage Geremonies.
The Buck shoal, Yadkin county,
correspondent of the Statesville
andmark has the following in last
week's paper:
The Kev. L. N. Uwyn, who lives
in Yadkin, not far from the Iredell
ine, has a good many marriage cer
emonies to perform for parties who
come from both Yadkin and Iredell.
He has, therefore, planned to build
an arbor on the line, one-half of
which will be in Iredell and the other
in Yadkin, so that those who live in
redell can come to the Iredell side
and those living in Yadlcin can come
to the Yadkin side, while the preach
er stands on the line and performs
the ceremony. .This will be a great
convenience, and as the arbor is to
be built by contributions all who are
matrimonially inclined and are ex
pecting the services of Mr. Gwyn
should contribute liberally. James
D. Johnson, of Yadkin, proposes to
be the hrst, so let him head the list
of contributions,"
There seems to be something fasci
nating about this minister and his
methods of performing the marriage
ceremony. Parties living miles away
drive to him to have the knot tied,
when there are -numbers of other
ministers near at hand.
An Abusive Judge's Finish.
Charlotte Chronicle.
And now Judge J. W. G. Black-
stone, of the Virginia State Circuit
bench, who not long ago savagely
denounced Governor Swanson for
sending militia into an upheaved
county, is indeed in trouble. While
presiding in a capital case recently
he fell into a drunken slumber, and
efforts to arouse him only made mat
ters worse. He presented a spectacle
which awakened the crowd's open
derision and put the law of the lana
to shame. N othing more scandalous
can easily be imagined. While char
itable, in its expressions, the Vir
ginia press is urgent the he resign
orthwith. There seems to be little
question that if he holds on impeach
ment proceedings will be instituted.
Governor Swanson, of course, can
now only pity him. No more in
Virginia than in Worth Carolina
the North Carolina case will be
readily recalled did an unjust at
tack upon a Governor's official con
duct bring any luck to the man
making it.
Mrs. Duke's String of Pearls.

New York. Oct. 4;. After scour
ing the cities of America and EuroDe
for the most perfect string of pearls
- t t r v ill

of the tobacco trust, has just pre
sented to Mrs. Duke formerly Mrs.
William lnman. or. Atlanta, a necK-
ln that cost him $200,000. The
one condition of the purchase was
that every pearl should flawless, and
several of the large jewelry houses
of this city, London ana fans were
rvn the lnolcnnt. Thfl results of the
search of these did not meet the re-
quiiements demanded by Mr. Duke,
and one necklace after another was
refused until at last the perfect
necklace was found. Every pearl in
the outfit, which" included a dog
collar" necklace and an arrangement
of loons of the iewels. designed to
fall artistically over the shoulders, is
perfect. Those entering mto the
collar are the size of small peas.
while those that form the festoons
range in size from a large pea to a
hazelnut. - -

UNHOLY UNION."
Rev. L Johnson ca State Appropriation
to HcCness Orphanage.
Newt and Observer. -
In a sermon on State Missions at
the First Baptist church Sunday
morning Rev. Livingston Johnson,
corresponding secretary of the
Baptist State convention, made an
attack upon the action of the last
Legislature in passing "an -act to
appropriate one thousand dollars for
the support of the Elhanan Training
nstitute for Homeless Children." at
Marion.
His sermon was a statement of the
things for which State Missions
stands and was outlined as follows:
irst Evangelization; second. In
doctrination; third. Expansion.
Luoer the head of Indoctrination:
he said among other things:
Ihe Baptists have always stood
for the complete separation of
Church and State. An act of the
ast Legislature shows that we need
to emphasize this principle in our
State today. A woman came to
Raleigh during the last Legislature
who could teach the old professionals
a long time in the art of lobbyine.
She said she had founded an orphan
age and was looking to the Lord
alone for its support. She spent a
good part of her time in the Capitol
Square with a little 'child on either
side. These children she said , she
had gotten in the East and was
carrying to the orphanage. One
morning The News and Observer
published the fact that a bill had
been introduced and passed both
houses appropriating $1,000 to the
support of this orphanage.
.lo say nothing of the woman s
aith which seemed- to drop suddenly
from the Lord to the Legislature
quite a drop by the way our lav-
matters, in me act, trampiea unaer
oot a most sacred principle for
which the Baptists have ever stood.
The orphanage is said to belong the
Holiness church, and at this hour a
meeting is being conducted in its
chapel by those who hold to the latest
religious fad, namely the girl of
the unknowm tongues." Some say
the title to this property is vested in
its manager, who holds it in trust for
the so-called Holiness Church. But
does that improve matters any? If
she holds the property in trust the
appropriation is to a church, and if it
is her individual property the
money has been appropriated to
private interests. The last Legisla
ture then, put its hand into the
poLets of the citizer.3 of the State
and took therefrom $1,000 and gave
it to a so-called church, thus recog
nizing the unholy union of Church
and State, for the dissolution of
which our fathers went to jail one
hundred years ago.
A few years ago our convention
sent a message of encouragement to
our English brethren who in -their
protest against the iniquitous educa
tional bill are making their last
fight for the separation of Church
and State. I say their last fight be
cause the victory is certain. . Is it
not about time for our convention
to register a deep and eternal protest
against the act of the last Legisla
ture?" The act Mr. Johnson referred to
is printed herewith as follows:
That the sum of one thousand
dollars is hereby appropriated five
hundred for the year one thousand
nine hundred and seven, and five
hundred for one thousand nine
hundred and eight, out of any money
in the State treasury not otherwise
appropriated, for the support of the
Elhanan Training 1 stitute for home-
ess children, at Marion, North Car
olina, and the same amount shall be
paid to Miss Mattie Perry, the
owner and superintendent of said
institution, in ' quarterly payments,
commencing the first day of June,
one thousand, nine hundred and
seven."
The Southern railway has placed
on sale in this State new interchang-
able mileage book3 for $22.50. These
books are good on about all lines in
the State. This is the 21 cent-rate
for State travel. Mileage books
have for some years been sold at the
2 i cent-rate and these are yet sold
for interstate travel.
President W. W. Finley. of the
Southern Railway Company said
Friday that a rumor circulated m
the financial district of New York
receivers for that company, company
for financial or any other reason is
preposterous. -
"Are you neighbors obliging?"
"I should say so. They always
let me use their telephone whenever
I want to.

Hale and hearty at the age of 73
years, the Russell Sage, of Tennessee,
is thus described by the Nashville
Banner : He began life aa a carpen
ter, and with the same simple rule,
"Save money." In those early days
of carpentering he would buy hia
own provisions and prepare his own
meals. While he always dressed
neatly, he would put the most indus
trious woman bargain hunter to
shame. Sometimes it has taken
years for him to find a suit of clothes
that would exactly suit, price being
the first consideration. He takes
the very best care of everything. It
is said that even now when he buys
a new pur of socks he darns them all
over the foot to make them last
longer with little strands of thread
that he picks up in his visiting.
When he buys new shoes he gets
them with a three-quarter-inch sole
and fills these soles with round
headed tacks to keep them from
wearing out. He once walked to a
neighbor's through a deep snow, and
was very cold. They moved a chair
in front of a huge fire, such as they
only have in farm-houses. It was
noticed" that he sat with his feet on
the rounds of the 5 chair. When
asked why he did not warm his feet,
he quietly remarked that he did not
wish to burn his shoes. Once a
member of the King's Daughters, a
charitable organization of the town,
saw an old man trudging through
the snow on a terribly cold day
without an overcoat, and was so
filled with pity that she reported the
case to the circle. They were very
much surprised to find that it was
the wealthiest man in the county
they wanted to help.1 He has never
owned a horse or any means of con
veyance. He generally walks into
town ; occasionally he rides with
some neighbor or borrows a horse,
which he hitches just before reach
ing the toll gate, and walks into town
to avoid paying toll.
He owns no real estate or personal
property ; his money is all in notes.
He will only take first mortgages on
real estate, one-third its value. He
calculates every note on a large
piece of wrapping paper, and always
knows exactly the amount due. If
he finds a difference of one cent in
any one's calculation he requires a
new note. He never forecloses a
mortgage. Rather than let one dol
lar stay idle he will borrow enough
from the bank to make an invest
ment. A certain man came into a
lawyer's office not long since with his
check for 82 cents; he did not under
stand it; said he had never owed
him one cent that he knew of. The
lawyer sought him and found that
some eight years ago he had been a
party in a law-suit and this man
served as a witness, and he had re
cently learned that the witness fee
had never been paid. He had calcu
lased the 50 cents fee with interest
for the intervening years would
amount to 82 cents, hence the
check. He has always been strictly
honest, never cheated any man out
of one cent, and has accumulated his
wealth by strictly legitimate means,
and while he has always lived in the
atmosphere of gain his conscience
has not been seared;
In his private life he is moral and
upright. He has educated several
nieces, but positively refuses to help
the boys of the family: He is very
much disturbed over the inheritance
tax. He never carries more than $1
with him, and has it securely tied up
in a little cotton bag. His only lux
uries are watermelons and tobacco.
The tobacco he buys six for a quar
ter, and takes one at a time, the rest
to be delivered when needed. He
says the greatest pleasure he gets
out of fife is the knowledge that, his
wealth is constantly increasing.
A Boy is Dragged to Death by Scared
Cow.
Jesse Morgan, nine years old. met
a terrible death at West Middleton,
a.. last rriday evening, when he
was drrgged by a cow belonging to
his uncle, J. l. Depew. The lad
thoughtlessly fastened the loose end
of the cow's leading rope around his
neck, and when the animal became
frightened at something in the road,
the boy wa3 dragged, and choked to
death. .
Along the road and over a bridge
the frenzied animal ran. and the
body of the child bumped along at
her heels. The cow once stumbled
andTell, but got up again and ran
on, leaving the little care-taker
bruised and bleeding, with his cloth
ing almost torn off.
The boy 8 skull was fractured and
the body torn and bruised by the
cow's hoofs. He partially recovered
consciousness, but died later.
Money in Sight and Everybody Has Some
Indian Blood.
Mount Airy Leader.
Since it was learned that the gov
eminent has some money belonging
to the descendants of an extinct
tribe of Indians who once roved this
neck of the woods, numerous white
people claim to have Indian blood
flowing through their veins and the
colored population are likewise plac
ing their claims and their dollars
with the lawyers who attend to the
business. Nearly every negro m
Surry county has been taken in by
these wily lawyers, and many of
them, whose ancestors were in the
jungles' of Africa four generations
ago, are now ready to swear that
their forefathers wore war paint
and wielded the the tomahawk. The
lawyers will no doubt get the dollars
and the victims the experience.
