Mr wife savs that it is hard on Carl. for besides his weekly letter to us, Tie has many friends; and the girl he left behind him, and his postage is quite a tax. She thinks I ought to write to President Diaz and Mr. McKinler and demand reciprocity; just for Carl's sake, but I compromised 'with her by promising to inclose a dime in every letter I wrote to the boy. In almost every mail that comes she is on the lookout for a 1 letter from some of the absent ones, and when she- gets one Bne reads it -two or three times and files it away on her side of the room. The morning and the'evening mail has become as important an event in the routine of our daily life as our daily meala. It is an event that has crrown on us and become indispensable. Time was when neither she nor I received a letter a month, for she lad no lover but me;' and I had Hone but her., and our postal system; was a darkey boy. It was like that of Zebs Vance, -who received a note from some fashionable woman in Washington with the myste rious letters, 4E. S.V. P. "endorsed on it, and when he answered it he put on one corner S. B. A. N.,',! just to keep up .with society, he said. ; When she afterwards asked for an explanation he smiled and"said: :; 'Oh; they stood for tJentby anigger.";" l- I remember when the postage had to be paid at the last end of the line by the person: Who received it, and it was 25 cents if it came 600 miles.

Perhaps there were as many as twenty weekly papers taken : in - the town, but none of them made mention of murders or suicides or lynchinga or elopements or baseball: or football or bicycle races or the-; fashions or Tre-, wards for guessing or tadvertisements of celery compound or photographs of men or women or babies or the arrival of anybody less than a president, or a governor.. 'But in bur stote , . papers there were somejittle pictures or cuts of hasty departures runaways and all were uniformly advertised: "Ban away from 'the subscriber, my boy Diok, etc., and I will give $10 reward for hia apprehension." i-S i But now the letters ah, the letters that come every 1 day! -Besides the family letters from kith and kin, there are scores from ' good.; people who are working fox church or charity, or want information about Florida, or Mexico. Very often am X comforted with com pliments which I love to receive, and verv often I cnt a ttooelJ loner letter i ixom some old-tune .Georgian who for m - t .-: e . O I aavu a century nas j been living t in ? ww : .-' - a ' a xexas - or Ayaansas, or somewnere in the 'great west. It pleases me to re4 ply to all and make the best answer that I can. But : perhaps I had better say just Here that I have long since ceased to write compositions for tha school 'girls or to ! assist, the boys in their debating societies. I wish sin cerely that I had time to help -them, but I have not. " I know how it is, for A used to get help myself. - ' Hut some of these letters are amus ing. One received a few davs aaro is! very urgent to have my opinion upon the propriety or impropriety of a chris uan man digging a storm pis and get ting in it when the cvclone (rives its warning.

He says they are making a church question of it in his community, i X nave had sev era! letters asking for assistance in guessing the missing word- that The Constitution offers a thousand dollars for. These letters, of course, are con fidential, and - some i beg me no to mention it even to Mrs. Arp. But tha delicious humor in one of them is the offer to eive -me half the reward if I will disclose to her the word. That is very like the . generous fellow who told the boy that; if; he would furnish his own hooks and lines and bait he would irivehirf half the fish he caught. Since my Jast letter about how to raise children was published Iliave had several tery ; comforting epistles from friends and some from strangers. Bar. - William 1 H. 1 Strickland- makes mention of several ! families from old Gwinnett whose children are all grown and ara esteemed -bv all who know them as ; good . -people honest, law- abiline and temperate. He names the three sons and ' five daughters of nv old friend Jim Dunlay. Also the i eight children of Bev. D. H. Uoncrief. one ol whom now lives in Atlanta and has five " sons and five : daughters, all grown up and ail .: good men and wo- xaeu. Jon and Alary is. oammons his wife, had thirteen to grow to ms- turit, and they were all good.- How rich these parents were ! richer than Vanderbiltor Astor. And so were the children of D. W. Spence and Wash Allen. ' One had : eight and the other ten. " - --,' -Well, now, one of the reasons is that all of those families came from old Gwinnett, and most ' of the children were from that old Sammons stock that lived on Alcovy creek when I was a boy. The first couple 1 : ever saw married outside of my father's houss was Jim liuniap and itebecca &am mona, ' and ' Jim outmarried .himself when he got her. That was" an old fashioned, country weddin g, and - it was a big one. They had turkeys and roast "pigs and pound cake amazin g, and they had thousand-dollar candle sticks all about, for erery' likely negro boy had a torch. I But my wife andI left there forty-six years ago, and did not know that these good people had had so many children. May all such be perpetuated. And I have a. good letter from Buena Vista, telling of old Dr. Reese, who has raised seven boys and two girls, and they are all good, sober,, industrious, .Christian- children, and had a gentle, kindloving, Chris tian : mother who is now among the augels. That vis it, after all the mother the mother th gentle.kind, loving, Christian mother. v - So I am encouraged to recall my ap- m .... s ii j. a- " i prehension concerning the black sheep f being in all large flocks of children. , ktAM:ttsTu Bjuci Abp in Atlanta 'Constitution.

A recent bulletin of - the North Caro- . tina Experiment Station which is now' being distributed, is No. 183 entitled me nejr- forage, 1 fibers and other -:- n. useful planU.Thislletindescribesv ' a variety ol new plants which have been tested and thepr value reported. Among the more important of the kinda that -are promising; and : worthy of more general use, are the cow, peas' of the Unknown", aSd; f Bed . Bipper" -varieties, hagy. a new Japanese logu-r mine recently imported, allied tdJ span clover, the Canada field pea and vetch. -Among the plants that .have - recently s' ' been advertised that do sot promise ' - well and are not recommended, are the " . beggar weed, so much planted in Florida; the horse bean, Saccaline. the - flat pea, and Canaigrevp The latter plant is grown in the arid climate of the middle lower section of the United - States, Arizona and adjoining States, - for use for tannic acid, bo far, it baa not been found of value -in this State. Promising fibre plants are ramie and -, jute, the former especially, and some of the roots are being distributed for co- operative testing in the eastern Section -of the State, where it promises to be of considerable valne in rich lowlands and - -;-in the rice growing districts. The on ly drawback heretofore has been that -the proper machinery for preparing the fibre for: market has not been known, but recently machinery has been e fleet ed which makes it more easy to accom plish this. Farmers of the State use immense cotton bagging, bagging fer tilizers, etc.. and if the matcml for this purpose be grown here.' it wonld add another , very important industry and would be the saving of a very large . amount of money. A summary of the contents of the bulletin is given in it so that the busy readers can ascertain the ' various subjects treated.
