None but those who have engaged for years in newspaper work caa ap preciate Its true inwardness, the brain fag, the heart grind, the toi without! recompense or ktnd wora Newspapers may last through a num ber of editors. There is no requiem said for the passing, though thei may be some one to exclaim, "poot devil", and as in life, so in the pass ing, the world rushes forgetful ot the good done bf the editoe going, equal ly prepared to greet the coming with "poor devil." For a 'quarter ot a centuy, the Haa derson,, N. C. Gold Leaf has beea coming to exchange weekly greeting with the Journal. In Its last week Issue, the following was at the head of its editorial page. "We offer this paper, outfit an good will everything and appurte nances -thereto 'belonging for aale. Reason's therefor abundant and sat isfactory to ourself. We have enough not of this world's goods; but of experience after 26 years tired of continuous ae. vice. We . are simply tired of the ceaseless grind and work and worry that distracts if it does not kill. Lite Is too short and the game is not worth th, candle to us. We want to quit to save ouraeu from being driven to drink and dea peraton or forced ' Into an untimely grav, or the lunatic' asylum either ol which would be preferable to con tending with unreliably ' aad Incom petent help and perverse d n fools. A bargain may bo had by some bldy who wants to engage la the newspaper business In a good town." To those not acquainted with this North Carolina paper, tt may be said that its editor is Mr. Thad R. Man ning, a name respected and honored among his fellow editors of the Btaie Press, and his paper, the Gold Leaf, haa ever been coaspleaona la. It adr vooacy foe those Uinta that declare tor local 'betterment aad clean State Government To those outside the profess ton this often' to sell may provoke - a laugh. To those known the real Thad R.

Today, the people of this otty see the passage ot th, blind tiger. Th law In Its Interpretation calls for the passing of the blind tiger. THE NIGHT RIDERS PEST. Nothing more deplorable hae arisen than what Is known as Night Riders. These people are unknown, and their' preeenre 1 only known through threatening notices put in neighborhoods,- these notice containing warn ings. In Kentucky the Night Riders warned the tobacco planters against putting In any but a specified numbei ot acres. It the warning was not heeded crops were deseroyed, mm shot, and barns burned. The Charlotte Observer from its shel by correspondent In this state, sent word that warnings had been posted against ginning any more cotton, the notice being posted on gins. News now comes ot th kind ot war ning being posted on a oountry gin eight miles from Greenville, 8. C. There appears no spcial argument advanced by theee threat. It 1 pre. sumed that to desis in ginning means a cuo down in the , cotton available tor market, hence th effect on price, causing an advance because suplie tall away. The Southern Cotton Far mer Union was presumed to be tak ing the right way of securing equl able marketing of cotton, eo a to gain th beet market prices, and every cotton grower to abare la th benefit through thia assoclailonf work. But th oiaming of th Night Riders, with their midnight warnings, threats and alarm, muet ceua, harm, not alon through th vicious manner of theae Night Rider warnings, but It also de velop a terroeism in' the sections In which these waroiage ere spread, that must destroy farm value aad causa1 many farmers to leave, IX the warning are carried out It la deplor able that Night Rider have come to North Carolina. It cannot help pro ducing a baneful affect. It la to be hoped that no North, Ceroleiaa anal? Join la such neforlou proceedings.

Modern workers are now making lovely trifles with tbe antique netted ground by brightening it up with raised work consisting, for instance, of wavy devices lu baby ribbon inter mingled with satin stitch fancies in oft colors. To execute this novel style the square mesh foundation, whether machine or handmade, is usually stretched on an oblong or square wire foundation, and ou it is iuvariablv sewed, according to design, the mean deriug ribbon, knotted at intervals lu the manner of a lover's knot, from which springs out a graceful spray ol' lily of tbe valley, forgetmeuots or oth er florets. These Uecurutive sprays are embroidered with satiu and stem stitches as soon as the ribbon work Is finished. For this secoud part of tbe work the piece of uettiug has to U tacked on oine solid fuundatlou of llueu, cloth or any material, which is cut away after the padded floweir have beeu well modeled w ith the uee die and cotton or silk, which has evi dently to be carried through both the square meshes and the backing.

Not iufrequontly the Honolulu ecUoois give picnics on tbe mountain side that the pupils may gather land sheila. . It hi ou these excursions In search of laud shells that the Hawaiian schoolboys revel In th once national sport, mountain sliding.- A very steep mountain side la se lected, where the grass I long and sloping downward. Every on gather his own tl leaves. The tl leaf I m thlng Ilk the banana leaf, but not near ly so long. With a bunch of tl leave In his hand the first boy step to the edge ot tbe side, grasps the Icavea by the stem, In both bands, place the leafy part under him and sit down, gives himwlf a start and drops dowa the edge ot the scenery like a flash. I was assured that it was an easy mat ter to regulate tbe speed of descent by merely .grasping tbe tl stems firmly aud llftlug them upward, this acting as a brake. I louged for the thrill of drop ping down over the edge of a moun tain and upon my brief sled of tl leaves began the descent I went like tbe wind. It seemed as though my breath would be taken away from me or that I would plunge head over heels, to be dashed to pieces among the trees be low. I thought of my brake and drew up ou tbe tl leaves with all my might and came up with a jerk that Jarred every bone lu my body. There I sat, looking downward almost perpendicu larly, held In position only by a few leaves resting on the smooth, slippery grass, but the sliding grass Is nearly s foot long, and It Is only after it haa been reputedly sliddeu over and beat en down that it approaches perfection In the eyes of the Hawaiian small boy and sometimes leads to accident When, for Instance, the thlu layer of tl leaves wears out beneath tbe slide a gentle tug at the stalks parts tbe sled and sends tbe slider wbizzing down ward lu n most uncomfortable and un graceful manner, all arms and legs.

Never read with your bead down Always stt up as straight as possible. It Is easy to find a comfortable posi tion without leaning forward.

Don't read facing a light Let the light come over one of your shoulders, preferably the left, be cause then the hands are never In the way of the light, either In reading or In writing. Never read In bed. Sooner or later that would seriously affect your sight Besides, you should not go to bed until the time ha com to go to sleep. A i way a stop reading when your eyes fel tired, especially at night If It is neceesary that you should use your eyes at night, give them rest often. -Chicago News. Portraits and Sentiments.
