You never can tell what you are getting until put to use and then there's probably more harm than good done.

Bur to erect today a ! great fortification comparable to the Great wall of China would be a heavy tax on both the resources nnd the res olution of Europe. A score or two of warships are nil vry well, but the cost of Inbcr nnd the will Involved In j building fleets can hardly be compared ! to those devoted to the building of I that great barrier about two centuries ! before the coming of Christ, when Rome was struggling with Hannibal. Two thousand Ave hundred and fifty miles. Including spurs, arms and loops, is the lensrth ascrill to it by Dr. W E. Cell, the only white man. we be lieve, who has i raveled the whole length of It. It bus been said that the Great wall Is the only object of man's handiwork which could be discerned from the moon, and one calculation has It that If the material of the wall were disposed about the globe at the equa tor there would be a wall girdle eight feet high and three feet thick around the earth. One can believe that to this day the name of the Emperor Chin Is cursed oil along the wall by the posterity of the wretches who were forced to the gigantic task of building it. In the days of Its greatest Importance, when It was still holding back the Tartar hordes. It is believed to have had on Its line 2.".000 towers, each capable of holding 100 men. and 15.000 watch towers. Even today there remains 20. 000 towers and 10.000 watcbtowers. with some 2.000 miles of wall that could, with moderate repairing, be made Into a formidable military work.

The No. 1 plant of the Odell mill is being torn away to give room for the new mill that is being erected by the Locke Cotton .Mills Co. The new mill that is being built on the lot of the old mill that was burned, is a one story structure with a modern roof and other conveniences that it is im possible to equip the old No. 1 mill with and for this reason it is being torn away. The old is a two-story structure that has stood at the head of North Union street for over a half century, being built in 1841, and was one of the most familiar land marks of the city. The new one-story mill will be extended over the va cant ground caused by the removal of No. 1 and connected with No. 3 plant of the Odell chain of mills. There is a tinge of sadness in the tearing away of this mill, which is the oldest of the many mills in this county, and which has added so much to the progress and prosperity of this city, but in its place will be a new and modern structure, fully in keep ing with the advancement and pro gress of the day.

As circumstances required that all should be boused in one building, there was a. fear that the Imposlug propor tions of the giants would terrify the dwarfs. But the dwarfs teased and tormented the giants so that these overgrown mortals complained with tears In their eyes, and as a conse quence sentinels had to be placed to protect the grants from their pygmy persecutors, for the smallest men bad the biggest brains and the longest tongues. Corrupted Hi Style. The late Richard Watson Gilder." said a New York poet, "always op posed the reading of light literature. A poet, be said, could not read such literature without corrupting his liter- ury style. "lie once told me that the poet In this respect was like Brown's parrot. "Brown bought a parrot for $20 from a pet stock dealer and a week or two Inter returned to the shop and In sisted that the bird be taken back. What's the matter with It? the dealer asked. 'W-w-why.' said Brown, the darn ed c-c-critter st-stutters.'
