then the w hole crowd marched nice

their patriotism by words of cheer
for the "glorious Kuiirlh, 177(1."
I'pon returning to the house where
the tlag was found, another hunt
awaited them, which was a large
cake hidden somewhere in the yard.
Therefore, another lively rush hither
and thither was predominant. Fi

tree and "spyed" the cake hanging
by a siring to a limb. Such a iovful
shout, as they all rushed to the tree!

amid shouts of victory w ith the prize.
After the cake disposal, all sorts of
plays were indulged in with joyous
freedom. Time passed oil with great

the good time tlievenioved, was said.

things as a means, and not as an
end, we are sale; but when the ef
fort to secure money for the pur
pose of broadening and elevating,
our view of life degenerates into a
feverish struggle for wealth for its
own nuke and for the power and
prestige it brings to us, then we
liegiu to blunt our moral percep
tion and to develop those miserly
instincts of grasping greed that
have dried up the fountain of hu
man sympathy in thousands of
breasts.
Of course, some are consecrating
their lives in literature, science,
art, and religion, to the culture of

intellectual giants tried their braw n

expansion into a nation imbued
with a new lite, then has Wn dis
closed the wide lield of industrial
activity. Is our civilization, as it
nears the final stages of its evolu
tion, to leave no monument save
the perishing record of material
progress f 'l'lieie was a time in
ancient (.ir.'.'cc, when her people
sat all day under a burning sun in
the theatre of liionysius, and feast
ed their minds on the tragedies of
the great dramatists. With deep
concern, we look lor the day when
at least a part of the tiviueiiilous
current of the 11 at ion's energy shall
he turned towards the sea of liter
ature, iu order to swell the tide r

of the higher life of our people and
the perpetuation of the more last

We need a Tennyson to seize upon
the threads of romance running
through this new life and to weave
them iiiht song. We need a Wads

plead for a return to the warm
heart of Mother Nature.

Shades of the piist! How they do
knock holes iu our most cherished
Is-lieis. 'tountry Life ' now says
it is a loolihli notion to suppose that
the ringing of hells or the tanging
of till pans w ill cause a swarm of
Ish-s to settle. "The real origiu of
this custom, it savs, '-dates back
to the reign of Alfred the (i rent.
w ho, iu order to prevent disputes

ordered that the owner should al
ways ring a Ml wheu his bees
swarmed; and ever siuce then the
gissl farmer's w ife has liecu rush
ing out with ringing bells when
ever the lioes swarmed, and the fact
that they settled verified, iu her
own in i in, the Ix-lief that the bell
did it." This is too much for us.
We refer the matter to Hill Arp of
Hiilortl, who is a bee farmer and
knows about it.
Attorney J. Waites Smith of
Troy, while crossing the high

His Stanly friends w ill hear of bis

The Mt. I'rostK'ct correspondent
of the Wavhuw- Enterprise savs
that while replanting corn a few
days iino, Mr. .1. I!. Lillian, oue of
the good farmers of 1 into id, discov
ered that something was pulling up
his corn. He set some deadlalls
and caught twenty-seven lield rats,
one ground squirrel and one high

whs pulling up com or not, but he
says it was iu bad company.
Kegardiug the tiicnio at Ash-
craft's mill, four miles south of
Marshville, to lw held next Satur
day, l'rof. .1. . (irceu of Our
Home, has the billowing to say:
Kverylmdy is invited to go and
carry dinner. Old bachelors an
on the charity list and will not be
reipnred to carry dinner. Dudes
will lie tieriiiltted to become the
appendage to the damp end of a

please. There will lie plenty to

Uev. J. W. Little is preaching
dowu in (ieorgia Claxton, (ia.
He has writteu a letter to The Lan

"r leas aud insects a plenty here.
I rant't see what good they do.
Nats dabbing at my eyes all the
time. I am all the time knocking
at them. Hie deorgta people say
I will soon get used to them. I
hope they are right." "Nut's dab

The deceased was '-Ti yearn old, and
