In the same country, lie erected u citadel. The greatest lyric poet and the greatest general of the Creeks were Boeotians, but nevertheless this people was accused of stupidity.

ON THE WINGS OF THE WIND Nothing So Small That the Zephyrs Shall Not Find It and Spread ' It Beneficially. Acres of perfume come on the wind from the black and white of the beanfield ; the firs till the air by the copse with perfume. I know nothing to which the wind has not some happy use. Is there a grain of dust so small the wind shall not find it out? Ground in the mill-wheel of the centuries. the iron of the distant mountain floats like gossamer, and is drunk up as dew. * * * A thousand miles of cloud go by from morn till night, passing overhead without n sound; the immense packs, a mile square, succeed to each other, side by side, laid parallel, hook shape, coming up from the horizon and wldonimr as thev mo proach. From morn till night the silent footfaMs of the ponderous vapors travel overhead, no sound, no creaking of the wheels and rattling of the chains; It Is calm at the earth. >ut the wind labors without an efTort 4bove, with such ease, with such power. Gray smoke hangs on the hillside where the couch-heaps are piled, a cumulus of smoke; the wind comes, and It draws Its length along like the genii from the earthen pot; there leaps up a red flame shaking its head; It shines in the bright sunlight; you can see It across the valley.?Richard JefTtrles. Magnet Has Many Use*. A highly Important use of a magnet Is that in which It Is sometimes employed to withdraw small pieces of iron from such out of the way places as the human eye. Another nse of the tractive force of magnetism on a much larger scale was that to which it was put hy Ellison in his magnetic ore separator. In which the ore, previously crushed to a fine powder, is dropped down a chute past the poles of powerful electro-magnets, in passing which the iron particles of the ore are deflected to one side, while the nonmagnetic stone dust continues undefleeted down the chute. Still another Instance of the employment of magnetism in a small way is that in which a magnetized tack hammer is used in the manufacture of strawberry baskets on a large scale In conjunction with a mechanical device which presents the tacks, one at a time and head up. to the operative, thereby greatly facilitating his work.

Experiments aimed at developing the resistance of brass to the actioo of sen water, with a view to Its em y ployment for constructing submarines In France, have, it Is reported, shown some remarkable results from the addition of aluminum. The Internal structure of the alloy is strikingly changed by a very small percentage of aluminum and the color changes are surprising. From half of 1 per cent up to 5 per cent of aluminum gives the brass a deep golden color. If ths quantity of aluminum Is Increased beyond 5 per cent a superb rose color results, which reaches Its maximum when the aluminum rr.oonts to T per cent. With 10 per cent of aluminum the eolor turns to a rtlTary white THIS DILLON Eiercises at Flora McDonald.

Did you ever linger a little while To have her kiss you, and see her smile? Did you ever praise little things she does? Did you ever come home from the daily buzz. To take her hand u^d to pinch her cheek, And tell her the lov.e that she seeks and seeks? Dil you ever care when she changed the way She'd been wearing her hair for many a day? Did you ever notice the pains she took To fix herself so she'd always look Pleasing and sweet to you when you came? Did you ever whisper her gentle name In sweetness inst no vnn uao<l ? > a--. In the years way back when your love was new? Did you ever tell her she looked so fine? Did you ever whisper, "I'm glad you're mine!" Did you ever try to follow her whim And fathom her fancy, and through the dim Drift and dream of the rolling years Sweeten her sorrow and heal her tears, And pet and comfort her heart each day? Did you ever think of your wife that way? ?The Bentitown Bard. o STARTS HIM ON NEW TACK Mr. Billtopa Reconsiders Subject After Gentle Reminder From His Very mucn ocuer nan. Till midnight the young ma? stays sometimes," said Mr. Billtops, "and as I sit with Mrs. Billtops waiting I wonder If he will ever go. Ten or half past Is as late as I think he ought to stay, and 1 have devised many plans to start him about that hour; but to everything I suggest Mrs. Billtops smilingly says no, and so I sit and fret and fume and get more and more nervous. " 'Is this a new custom?' I say to Mrs. B.. something that has come In wltt the many new-fangled ways of the present day?' "'Is It a new custom?' says the smiling Mrs. Billtops. 'Why. It Is a custom as old as time. Don't you remember how late you used to stay when you came calling on me?' "And really it was quite a shock to me, that reminder; for I will admit that I was myself a frightfully late stayer. "But did her father ever come In wun a large club at about 10:K0 and say to me that he thought now was about time for me to go? Never! In fact, he was always very kind to me. as I now gratefully remember; but now here was I getting all wrought o * jse a young man stayed late In my house. "Grown older.

In a small town upstate there was not one person who knew how to play the organ at the church. At last a girl who could play just a few and very few hymns at that came to the town. One day the preacher aaked the organist: "Can yon play a wedding march for a wedding tomorrow?" The organist replied: "1 am very sorry, but I do not know one note of a wedding march." The preacher knew that they meat have some kind of music for the wedding, so he said: "Play the nearest thing to a wedding march that yew know." As the bride and bridegroom caioe down the aisle, "Onward Christian Soldiers" was the tune that rolled forth from the organ.?Indianapolis News. . / HERALD, DILJiOX, SOUTH CAROLI !

Public pourings are a thing of the past at the county jail, partly because of the fact that "pouring" attracts a great many people and heartache and anguish is caused by a sight such as whiskey flowing in the gutter usually makes.
