Dreaming and Doing.
1 ?Those -who dream do not do. Those
-wno do have no time to dream."
These epigrams from a recent ar
ticle hy Sarah Bernhardt apply not
only to the art students, for whom
< she wrote it, hat with equal aptness
to the woman ordering a home or the
business girl earning her livelihood
out of the home.
"if?eems to me," she continues,
'.Matthe successful ones are those
Triio never think at all about success,
hut simply work. They love art, and
they toil. They make no speeches,
never seek to impress others with the
certainty of their own success; never,
in fact bother their heads, about oth
ers or'the opinion of others at any
time. They work patiently, they work
year after year; their work improves
little by little, and they wake some
day surprised to find themselves suc
cessful."

' Labor's Dawn.
The toiler's day begins to dawn,
Its golden morn comes gently on:
Ton mountain rises from the night
With helmet gilded with its light.
There high appears the morning's glow,
While black extends the night below,
Where prowl the creatures of the dark.
Where still ls heard the watchdog's bark.
The Ught that tips yon mountain's crest
.Portends the age of darkness past: "
That gloomy night shall lose its sway;
The world of toil shair have its day.
The clouds that clothe the mountain's
side
Begin to fall apart, divide;
The day shall follow break of dawn
And labor come unto its own.
Shall peace not usher In' the dav;
On cloud and crag shall lightning play:
Shall thunder's voice the vale awake
And wild the storm in fury break.
ShalL rather reason's ray serene
?With soft effulgence light the scene,
A world where love and labor reign.
With peace on earth, good will to man.

Salutes and Corsets.
Among the odd official decisions
published in Berliu is that of the
Prussian railway administration on a
point of etiquette advanced by_a sta
tion master on the lower Rhine, who
asked for a ruling as lo whether the
young women subordinates in his of
fice should not recognize him first on
the street, instead of waiting to be
saluted, according to the prevailing
custom: The government directed
the station master to salute first.
The principal of the girls* ' high

provincial government if she was au
thorized to forbid young women tc
wear corsets during. gymnastic exer

Two Famous Pioneer Trees.
Two of the most -famous pioneer
trees in the wesr have a well merited
place in history. These were the
Lone. Jack tree and the Lone Elm.
The first is In western Missouri
and the secoud in eastern Kans?s. A
good pioneer horseman might have
covered the distance between them
in a day. At the Lone Jack tree a
great battle was fought during the
civil war. At the Lone Elm caravans
over the Santa Fe trail halted for the
night and here were united two
branches of the famous old trail.

mittee made its report.
A bill to give the railroad commis
sioners more power over depots was
given a third reading, and a bill to ex
tend protection over quail and par
tridges until 1910 received second
reading. Several bills were recom
mitted, among them one regarding
railroad rates and two relating to the
kinship of supreme court justices and
circuit court judges with reference to
their sitting in cases.
The House..
The house of representatives has at
last got started on its way to the bill
to grant additional powers to the dis
pensary investigation committee. On
account of numerous unforseen cir
cumstances it appeared that thc bill
might be delayed until the latter part
of next week, but Mr. Nash saved it.
A session ivas held at night especially
for the purpose of letting the dispen
sary committee of the house report
the" bill.
Among the . new bills introduced
were thc following:
By Mr. Haskill-To provide for the
study of forestry by experiment sta
tion at Clemson in connection with
the United States department of agri
culture. *
By Mr. Otts-To authorize election
in counties or townships on perma
nent road improvements.
Mr. Otts-To require certain medi
cines to he plainly marked.
Mr. Cothran-To [iermi 1 clerks of
court to grant writs ol' herbus corpus
and admit to hail in certain cases.
In the Seneta.
The senate worked for about an
hour Friday and adjourned to meet on
Monday. The ealaander was read
through and a number of bills intro
duced.
When the dispensary investigating
committee's bill to give the committee
further power came up, asked that it
go to third reading. This was oppos
ed by Senator Blease of Newberry,
who said that he had asked for a fin
ancial statement from the committee
and as it had not been presented he
wanted the bill passed over. This
was done. .
Saturday in The House.
The Senate was not in session Sat
urday, having adjourned over from
Friday to Monday. The House how
ever, did a good "days work. The dis
pensary investigation bill was advanc
ed one day oivthe calendar, and quite
an amount of routine business was
transacted. A number of bills were
,read a second time, a few passed fi
nal reading and several new bills were
introduced.

Why Not Sign "Y'rs?"
In these days, when economy of
time and space are of the highest im
portance, it seems to me that some
of the conventionalities of correspond
ence might well be abolished.
Why should we write "Dear sir,"
and then make a pause and begin
a fresh line? Why could not all we
have to say flow straight on in the
same line from "Dear sir?"
Again, why shock! we take three
lines-and this, - perhaps, is more im
- portant-over the conclusion of our
letters? It strikes me that it would
be infinitely simpler and more con
venient if you concluded a letter thus:
"I am, dear sir, your obedient serv
ant, Ed'ard Cuttle," all ia one line.
Can anyone tell me the reason of this
custom and when it was originated?

How It Often Happens From Coffee;
"I had no idea," writes, a "Duluth
, man, "that lt was the coffee I had been
drinking all my life that was responsi
ble for the headaches which were
growing upon me, for the dyspepsia
that no medicines would relieve, and
for the acute nervousness which un
fitted me not only^ for work but also
for the most ordinary social functions.
"But nt last the truth dawned upon
me, I forthwith bnde the harmful bev
erage a prompt farewell, ordered in
some Postum and began to use lt. The
good effects of the new food drink were
apparent within a very few days. My
headaches grew less frequent, and de
creased in violence, ray stomach grow
strong and able to digest my food with
out distress of any kind, my nervous
ness has gone and I am able to enjoy
life with my neighbors and sleep sound
ly o'nlghts. My physical strength and
nerve power have Increased so much
that I can do double the work I used
to do, and I feel no undue fatigue af
terwards.
"This improvement set in just as
soon.as the old coffee poison had so
worked out of my system as to allow
the food elements in tL .'ostum to get
a hold to build me up again. I cheer
fully testify that it was Postum and
Postum alone that did all this, for
when . I - began to drink lt I 'threw
physic to the dogs.' " Name given by

Apple Trees 135 Years Old.
An apple from a tree at least 135
years old was brought to the Ameri

When his grandfather, Levi Hig
gins, moved from Eastham, on Cape
Cod, to Maine, in 1770, he brought
with him this apple tree, and set it
out on the place at Hull's Cove, ia
what is now the town of Eden.
There Mr. Higgins, and his father be
fore him, both born on the place, ate
the fruit. He ls interested to know
if there is an older tree In the coun
