Delightful to take. Try it. TEE EDITOR'S LEISURE HOURS Points and Paragraphs of Things Present, Past and Future. The passing of Roberts from Wash inaton back to his plurality ol wives by the order of the Congress of which he was elected a memberemphasizes the attitude of the American mind to wards the sacred vow of matrimony As we have the altar vow it is that the husband shall love and cherish one woman only as his wife, and that is the teaching of God in his Holy Book on the subject of marriage. Are the young men of the present showing as much concern about real mind training as did the young men of former times? Has not the spirit of money-making, together with the dis position for a "good time," as they call it, turned the minds of the young men of to-day from a deep-seated desire for knowledge ? "Knowledge is power," as true now as ever it has been, but it is to be feared that too few of our young people desire that kind of power. It has already been realized that lumber is getting scarce in this region and it is time our people were paying more attention to the protection of the forests. High prices in the lumber market have a tendency to cause the lorests more and more to be devastated. With the present rapid consumption of timber in certain quarters, the lumber with which to build houses will soon have to be shipped from one communi ty to another. The forests ought to be protected, and instead of clearing them for fresh agricultural lands, worn out lands ought to be reclaimed. Senators Pritchard and Butler have shown themselves good and worthy yoke-fellows ot late. Pritchard s reso lution in Congress and Butler's decla ration before the Populist committee in Raleigh breathe the same hatred to whatever does not make for their per sonal advantage. Politicians for wnat there is in it is what they are proving themselves to be. The "gang" to which Butler referred will prove too 3tronsr for their resistance, and he might as well turn to use as soon as possible what he has been able to get out of his recent law course. The cotton milling interest is grow ing faster in North Carolina than in any other State in the Union, perhaps. Some over-cautions persons, when asked to lend their aid in a substantial way to the establishing of a cotton mill, ex press their fears that the business will be over done. But let it be set down for good that the cotton milling busi ness will not again nourisn in ine North as it has in times past. The climate and other things in the South make it possible for this particular in dustry to flourish here more than in the North ; and there Is no reason to fear that the milling business will be over done here. What American poet has written a poem that will make immortal the de struction of the Spanish fleet at Santi ago? Lynri Roby Meekins writes for the Saturday Evening Post: "How many would recall to-day the charge of the Light Brigade magnificently he roic as it was it lennyson naa not written his undying lines?" He fur ther writes that the British have done some wondeiful things since the Six Hundred stormed the hills at Balak- lava, but nothing of it all is so fresh in the minds ot the people of to-day as the charge of the Light Brigade. Perhaps the destruction of the Spanish fleet has already been made immortal by some of our poets, but if so we have not seen it. And if it has not been done The Commonwealth calls upon Frank Stanton or same other poet to give the world a poem on the great naya! feat If You Have Sore Theoat Pain Killer will cure it.

Written for The Commonwealth. Be not of the tribe that sit back and find fault ; be of those who set forth ana strive, "just aoing things" may j i ti t m - . - a not gain for you so great a reputation for wisdom, as lazily telling how to do ; yet you have chosen the batter part even though the harder. Wise head waggiogs are nothing compared witblty-one years of age, and possessing one clear-visioned purpose worked out seriously. It does not take a particu- larly wie man to discover defects m the sun ; it does take a very wise man to understand its full glory and power, notwithstanding the spots. Any short- sighted creature who thinks that he himself rises higher by discovering de- fects in otb9rs, can find, out slimy things and bugs in the grandest tree that ever did its forest duty; but it takes a man with a feeling soul to stand far enough away to see no defects and to admire the, symmetry of the leafy giant. It is better to strive and fail, than not to strive at all. Neither criticism nor eyen knowledge of our own short- comings should deter us from working out as beat we can the purposes within us. In all probability we are here only once, and after that so far as the world is concerned, only the working ot the thread of our doings into the tapestry of the world's wide life. Then whv not do our little fearlessly? The man who works knows something of the lust of battle ; the man who finds fault has no such joy. It takes the strength of manhood to produce any noticeable result in the world ; how less than nothing, therefore, is the total value of scoffing at effort. The tarty fruits of long endeavor are sweeter to ook at than the skeletons of the de-l stroyed efforts of others. The only one who has tho right to criticise is be who has earned his right by the blood and the sweat ol his en- deavor ; yet even then not a right to criticise methods and means, but only naction. The crime of doing nothing, hoping nothing, expecting nothing, breseeing nothing, prophesying noth- Ing is one that doers haye the right to denounce. Stress and strain free the wings ; inaction keeps us slothtul worms. The world does not clamor for advice but it demands service service that is our own and not dissections of onr neighbors. The test-stone of all striv- lng ones is "Service." No man who is spending and being spent for his day and the days to come, can be all wrong, no matter hew much his methods may differ from ours. His working makes all things well ; just as the motion of the waters in the well of Scripture car- ried healing in their turmoil. The worker beside us may be out of touch with us ; even out ot svmpathy ; possi- bly quite wrong from our point of view though none of us is ALL right but the immutable laws of the good universe will bring bis dross to naught, while the silver and the gold of him will endure. More hands across chasms of misunderstanding will be a fittingly progressive and humane usherfng in of the century. DR.

The "Slums" are known by many different names, among which are the "Ghetto," the "East Side" and the "Tenement District." They are In habited mainly by Polish and Russian Jews and Italians. To the stranger this section of the city seems more like the old world than of the foremost city of America. The business signs are i2ten mostly in He brew ; conversation is carried on in the Yiddish jargon, a mixture of Hebrew, German and English ; the men all wear long beards ; the whole aspect of the place bring to one's mind some city of the holy land. Everywhere filth reigns supreme. Though the streets have been as phalted, as a sanitary measure, they continually reek with filth. Recepta cles lor all kinds of garbage, fruit skins and refuse, they give rise to an ever- present odor, nauseating iu the extreme. It is a common occurrence lor the ped estrian to hear a wicdow raised above his head, and, looking up, to receive the contents of a dish-pan in his face, if be is not nimble on his feet. It la in the Gbetto that the "push cart man holds high sway. He is an important factor in East Side life. On Fridays, the Hebrew market day, may be seen a continuous succession of 'push-carts," extending the whole ength of many of the thoroughfare, filled with every conceivable commod ity. Here a long-bearded, solemn man stands guard over a load of aried fish ; bis neighbor jealously watches his pile of half-decayed fruit diminish ; while the next man proudly displays his gaudy assortment of hosiery and under wear. To attempt to name the differ ent articles in the long line would be folly. Fruits of all kinds, cheap dry goods, old clothes, hardware, poultiy ana "nokey-pokey, a Kind 01 ice cream, are but a few o the varied as sortment. The "pretzel" man, another feature of tenement life, is a rather amusing spectacle. With a rod about five feet- long filled with the crisp, ring-like delicacies ( ?) he solemnly walks the streets, making an occasional sale How he manages to make a living by this means is a mystery. The stores are mostly very small. The more humble grocer and butcher shops are in the basement. Their dark windows are decorated with such deli cacies as chickens, neatly carved into slices, partly picked ducks, black bread and little pear-shaped cheeses, mysteri ous looking affairs. The more pre tentious stores are on Grand street, the main thoroughfare of the district. In summer the streets are filled with crowds of half-naked, dirty children, 'guttersnipes,'"who spend most of their time out of doors trying to escape from the terrible heat of the tenements. Little they know of the joys of child hood. Born and brought up in the tenements, with but a glimpse of the blue sky between the high walls and with but an occasional breatn of pure air, they drag out a miserable existence, many of tbem spending the greater part ot their lives in the squalid sur roundings of the slums, with little knowledge of the outside world. Their amusments are few and simple. The happiest days of their lives are when tbey are compelled td attend the public schools which are scattered throughout the district. During the hot weather the exterior of the tenements looks as if the whole population had suddenly become poss essed of a violent notion to cIMn SALT RHEUM CURED BY Johnston's Sarsaparilla QUART JUST SEEN Sllf lit Skin Eruptions are Warning; or Something More Serloa to Come Tbe Only Safe Way im to Heed the Warning. Johnston's Sarsaparilla is the Host Powerful Blood Purifier Known. Nature, in her efforts to correct mistakes, which mistakes have come from careless living, or it may be from ancestors, shoots out pimples, blotches and ; other imperfections on the skin, as a warning- that more serious trouoies (per haps tumors, cancers, erysipelas or pulmonary diseases) are certain to follow if you neglect to heed the warning and correct the mistakes. Many a lingering, painful disease and many an early death has been avoided simply because these notes of warning have been heeded and the blood kept pure by a right use of JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA. Miss Abbie J. Rande, of Marshall, Mich., writes : I was cured of a bad humor after suffering1 with it for five years. The doctors and my friends said it was salt rheum. It came out on my head, neck and ears, and then on my whole body.' I was perfectly raw with it. What I suffered during those five years, is no use telling. Nobody would believe me if I did. I tried every medicine that was advertised to cure it. I spent money enough to buy a house. I heard JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA highly praised. I tided a bottle of it. I began to improve right away, and when 1 had finished the third bottle I was completely since, i never got any thing to do me tne least good till l tried juhjn&iujN s SARSAPARILLA. I would heartily advise all who are suffering from humors or akin disease of any kind to try it at once. I had also a good deal of stomach trouble, and was run down and miserable, but JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA made me all right." Tne blood is your life and if you keep it pure and strong you can positively re sist disease or face contagion fearlessly. JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA never fails. It is for sale by all druggists, in full quart bottles at only onedollar each. sxiTJo- coicpAirr, dhthoit, mxc9 E. T. WHITEHE VD & houses. Piled high on all the fire escapes, gaily decorating the high, bare wall, are huge stacks of beds and bed clothing. They are placed there partly to get the benefit of the fresh air and partly because about one-halt ot the people sleep on the roof in hot weath er and find the fire escape the most convenient place to sior3 their beds in the daytime. Once inside the tenements one is op pressed with the damp, stifling odor that prevades the dark halls. The rooms are small and badly ventilated and the people are huddled in them like so many sheep. In some in stances the whole of a large family oc cupies but one or two small rooms - a . -a . . .. more man a nunarea iamiues live in some of the b!g "double-decker" tene ments. This is one of the most thick ly populated sections on the globe. Should all the inhabitants of tho tene ments be suddenly thrown into the street they could not possibly find standing room, so great is their num ber. The cold weather brings to these poor people untold suffering. With insuffi cient clothing to venture upon the frozen 6treet numbers of them must huddle over their little stoves and nuive the spark that is unab'u to beat back the cold draughts that pour in through the many crevices ot the- poorly con structed houses. Coal is a luxurv to them. Wnen they do buy it, they get such quantities that they are compell ed to p.iy exorbitart prices twenty five cents a scuttle. Their lood is ol the poorest quality, consisting maiuly of black-bread and garlic. Lack of proper food, cold, and neglect annually cause the death of thousands of them. The Italian quarters, Mulberry etrett and "Little Italy,'' though a part of tho slums, deserve special mention. Nearly ali of the foreign race live in colouies and each have their own pec uliarities. In lroiit of about every third door on Mulberry street are tiers ol long po'ea strung with macaroni and ppaghetti to dry in the sun. Exposed to the dust and grime of the street they gain sever al ounces in weight and increase in commercial value by the operation. But your "Dago" never minds dirt. H? grows fat on it, t&kon externally cr internally. Should a prize be offered lor the dirtiest paople on earth the Italians of this neighborhood would have a "walkover." They subsist mainly on macaroni, spaghetti, and garlic, spending but a few cents a day for food. They allow themselves barely enough to live on in this country, but hoard up their mouej so as to go back to Ita'y and liye comfortably the rest of their days. A dog in America a lord in Italy. Much has Lee:i done to lessen the sufferings of the dwellers in the slums, and charitably inclined people find in them a broad field for their labors. Numerous parks have been laid out and serve their purpose as "lungs' and several recreation piers have been built along the water front. Some philan- tbopists have recently fitted up an outdoor free gymnasium in one of the smaller parks and it has proved a great blessing to the boys and yot.ng men of the neighborhood. From morning un til night may be seen crowds of youths and small boys industriously pounding the punching bag and gaining strength and sKiII on the trapeze. Many such charities are combining to steadily improve the condittnti of the poor, and some day not far distant will probablj see the foul tieus that abound everywhere wiped out. Retlaw.
