J lie ohjeit is to introduce sweetness and light anil geaeral uplift into the lives of animals fu therehy give them n realization that they have- eonsrienees and most art in eeordanee with t Rem. Mr. Dixon punted out that there is no reason for man to assume for himself alone all the joys and pricks of conscience and soul. ' There is talk of a petition to Mr. Dixon asking that the first undertaking lie the teaching of Jeas and mostpiitos the principle of vegetarianism.

Brown, tho most tireless swain on record, snafched from his woo ing balcony, her window-sill, and to jail. Miss Joyce lives on the ground floor, which made the window fairly nfe, ex cept for the police. And Louis wan wont to stand outside her apartment through the rain and the hours, opening her window occasionally to plead his suit. Bhe, unromautically, at last appealed to the policeman on the lieat. But Lonis' last words as be entered the jail were to the rfert that not even a prison term eoalil gttll his fluttering heart. ... j For the first time in its eons of his I tory.

Miss Harrison reached New York City the other day on a journey of absorbing American methods of doing aueli ttrtota, H th. Ideas of the Ameri can workers. She is an exceedingly im portant person In her field, having estab lished a reputation as the head of the Department of Hocial florvico nnd Ad ministration for her university, nnd nlso as organizer of the Welfare Workers Institute of England. She oTitnined a two -years leave of absence for this work in China. A Chins Man in London told Tno i, w. board In Shanghai that. Miss I Harrison wa the one woman exactly adapted to the work they wanted done and the task of persuading her to under take it was begun immediately. Hhe ill sail for China late next month. This is not such a materialist, gold digging, part of the world, after all. In one day last week, two of th city's suburbanites indicated that. The Rev. lah to keep the ten cents. "People are always asking me why I don't quit tobacco, and I've alwnys noticed that the people who regard my little Innocent hiiblt with disgust, have worse ones of their own. Why don't you quit wearing sldewhlskers, when you must know that they Jar the nerves of the fastidious, and make you look like something that should be in n museum? What sense Is there In wearing sideboards? I'd be tho lust to speak slightingly of nn Infirm ity or deformity. If you hail a game leg or wry neck, my heart would be full of sympathy for you. Such nfllie tions sIhiiiIi) not be mocked or held up to scorn by any man ; but nobody needs to wear sldewblskers. It's some thing that can easily be helped. You shouldn't make caustic remarks about the t;olmcco hnblt until you have had those fire escapes removed. "Old Doolittle asks me about three times a week what pleasure I find In using tobacco. I have erplnlned the matter to him repeatedly, but nothing I say seems to make uny Impression on him. He clings to the belief that Rmoklng Is on a level with robbing a church or defrauding a widow. "lie doesn't use tobacco, but he has about every other bad hnblt you can think of. Wlren It conies to spoiling the truth he could give cards and spades to the whole Ananias family. I try to be reasonably truthful. I never spring a fish story unless It will serve a good purpose. Put Doolittle will go t all sorts of trouble to hand you a falsehood. If he says he has the toothache, yon may rest assured IV a sprained ankle that's bothering him. I contend that It's worse to sit on the troth and bold It down tlwn it Is to load a good old briar und blow out a few reams of smoke. "Aunt Julia Is always lecturing me about the tobacco habit. 1 have said It a hundred times, and I say It again, I that my aunt Is all wool and a yard ! wlrlo niiil vnll nrAlilrt Ipnvol fui li.Cff.i finding a better female, but If you think she has no bad habits you have another guess coming. Two or three yeurs ago she read some English so ciety novels'. Those stories are full of tea parties. A mnn reading theiu would think the Itrltlshers spent till their time at tea fights.

"But I have enough left to getthrongh on and I want; to see my children enjoy themselves! while I'm alife," he said. i ' . The production of "The Ilero.'V , vhiVfe opened the other day, brings for-! Ward a new American playwright of' great promise, Gilbert Emery. He has shown a remarkable skill at characteriza tion and analysis, and has at the same time, prevented the play from WomiiiEr a clinic of that sort of thing; It is the story of two brothers, the fascinating, irresponsible prodigal an. I the slow-, plodding, unpirto-esqne worker, drant Mitchell is playing Andrew, the plodder, and Robert Ames gives a scintillating, performance as Oswald, the worthless "hero," for a hero he manages to re main in the eyes of the public, even . the end. One wouldn't think, offhand, of gloves i as being a subject for inteine cuutro-! Wty. Bat such they seem to hare come among a considerable portion oJ .Manhattan's population.

Mrs. H.imil ton M. K. Twombler, one of the most cvlnaive of the Vanderbilts, never bares er ran arms in public, while Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, another Vandcrbilt, rarely bothers with gloves. Other equally formidable names can be , j noted oa either side. But the person : who hat created the most of a sensa- j (ka is Mrs. John Barrymore, the ex -Mrs. j I-eona rd Taomas, who has started the I f4 of wearing short gloves with short: Wrea) ' That is quite enough to give a,y of s a shock, . of tea. So she blew herself for the herb, and began drinking It. At first Flie said it tasted like colic medicine, but she persevered, and now she's the champion middle weight tea drinker of this burg. I won't say anything about the money It costs. She Insists upon having Imported tea, and won't be satislled with any home grown sub stitutes, although sags; tea Is far bet ter end costs next to nothing. "She gets on a tea Jog every time she has company, and then for two or three days slie has a hangover, and htr nerves are' a sight to be seen, and 1 Just wish you had to live In the sume house with her at Ruch times. Then you would be willing to admit that there are worse things than smoking." "Talking, for Instance," sighed the professor. BACK a M oney Back n Virgin Islands Export Sugar. The most important agriculture in the Virgin islands Is sugar, of which approximately ten thousand tons was exported in 1919. In 1919 the govern ment succeeded In opening the 1'orto Wean market to cattle from the Is lands. About $30,000 worth of cattle were exported, and it Is thought tlit'.t the cattle-raising industry will eventu ally become an Important one. Impor tation of cattle to Porto Kieo formerly was prohibited on the ground that the Virgin Islands were In the tlck-lnfesied area. Many Times. Young Col. Theodore Roosevelt was taken to task at a dinner in Albany, by a young matron. "I should have thought," she said, reproachfully, "that you'd have stuck to the urmy, colonel."

"In war, yon see, you can be krlletS r.iiy once, but think how many times yon can be killed In poli tics 1" The only effective way to reach the people of Gaston county is through the advertising columns of Tht Gaxetta On the sleeves of a!!
