Emerson's claim that even in the 10 dreams of the night we are carried ''' forward, accords with all that science or philosophy can unfold touching the onw&fd march of being. It is true that to it is for the active mind that he bespeaks this gain and it Is In the re- tj, freshing ministry of sleep to man's (i, mind and body that Its purpose in human life Is commonly found.

Nothing surely if it >h< could enfold that sleep of death in Its 1! redeeming logic. For truly if after p( f life's fitful fever man sleeps well it j,. must be, as Drowning so elearly discern*. that he "sleeps to wake" to the grander use of his powers in the life more large.

Thrilling Rescue by Submarine London. -"The most romantic, dra inatic and piguant episode that modern war can show," says a naval lieutenant in describing an episode in the Heligoland tight. Iiis letter reads: "The Defender, having sunk an enemy, lowered a whaler to pick up her swimming survivor?: before the whaler got back an enemy's cruiser came up and chased the Defender, and thus she abandoned her whaler. Imagine their feelings; alone in an open boat without food, twenty-five miles from the nearest land, and that land the enemy's fortress, with nothing but fog and foes around them. Suddenly a swirl alongside, and up. If you please, pops his Ilritanic majesty's submarine E-4, opens his conning tower, takes them all on board, shuts up again, dives and brings them home 250 miles! Is not that magnificent? No novel would dare face the critics with an episode like that in it, except, perhaps, Jules Verne: and all, true! Magnificent. indeed, and it Is war." German-American Protest Rejected Washington.?President Wilson declined to receive Horace L. Bland of Chicago, who came to present messages from several German-American organizations protesting against the charges of atrocities made by the Bel gian commission ugainsi me uenuuu army. The president took the position that he had already refused to permit natives of other belligerent countries living in the United States to discuss the war with him and that the messages of the German-Americans were not of the same nature as those brought by the Belgian commissioners. He planned to write a letter to Mr. Brand explaining that his recent statement on neutrality addressed to the American people should apply equally to all living in this country. Peace Move Appears Hopeless Washington.?Great Britain has received no proposal for peace, either directly or Indirectly, from Germany or Austria, and, therefore, has nothing to say on the subject. This was the substance of a message received by Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, British ambassador here, from Sir Edward Grey, British foreign secretary. The ambassador had inquired whether any peace proposal was before his gov ernmettt in view of persistent rumors from Berlin that proposals were being exchanged. Coincident with the receipt of this information from Great Britain It was learned authoritatively that President Wilson had not pursued either with Great Britain, France or Russia the informal suggestion of the imperial German chancellor that "it was up to the United States to obtain a statement of peace terms from the allies." Moving Toward Russian Frontier London.?The Daily Telegraph's Rome correspondent says he learns that eight German army corps left France and Belgium for the Russian frontier. William IV and Buckingham Palace. How much William IV disliked Ruck Ingham palace is shown by a passage In the diary of Lord Brougton, who was first commissioner of works In 1S34, when the houses of parliament were burned down. Two days after the fire Broughton records: "Went to St. James, and saw his majesty. I cannot say he was much affected by the calamity at having the opportunity of getting rid of Buckingham palace: said he meant it as a permanent gift for parliament houses, and that it would be the finest thing in Europe, At three o'clock the king and queen came, and went over the ruins of the two houses. . . . The king looked gratified as if at a show, and perhaps to the prospect of getting rid of Buckingham palace. Just before getting into his carriage he called the speaker and me to him, and said. Mind! I mean Buckingham palace as a permanent gift! Mind that!'" He Had One. Timpkins lived in constant dread of burglars, and one day, so as to bo prepared for all emergencies, he purchased a pistol with "For Burglars" neatly engraved upra the butt. Timpkins took great pride in his new toy; but one evening he forgot to take it upstairs with him vlien he went to bed. And, of course, it was during that night that a burglar did at last elect to enter his house. When Timpkins came down next morning he found to his dismay that nearly all his valuables were gone. The treasured revolver, however, had been spared. It lay on his etudy table, and beside It was a note: "Thanks; but I ulways carry my own!" Why Flats Are Popular. People tire still trying to answer the question of why apartment houses are so popular, but the answer should come. It would seem, without much of a struggle. It is simple. It Is due to the ambitien of people to have beautiful surroundings, the difficulty of seetiriiig domestic help and the growing indolence of the human race It is not quite fair to talk about the indolence of tho human race when it seems that every man and every woman's time is taxed to the utmost with affairs of one kind or another to which they are compelled to give attention. They have so mShy things to do that they do not get time to do the things they would like to do. This is a city argument. It will not apply to the small city to such a great extentConstruction News.

WILL IIA I) TO HAVE COTTON; PAID And It Wns Shipped In Express Cars To Enable Mill To Operate Rock Hill Ilcrald, Sept. 21?It is said that tlie- first cotton over shipped from this section in express ears went out of Chester Sunday to a mill in North Carolina. The story as it comes i to Rock Hill is as follows: A North Carolina cotton mill, the Rhodiss, situated up on the Carolina and Northwestern, sent a representative to Chester Saturday to buy cotton. The mill had to have it, because its supply was practically exhausted and the owners of the mill did not want to 'close down. The mill's representative ' offered nine cents for cotton, but could not get it. Finally John Frazier, of a of 1 4 a o/vll DC4ft Lalrtt. o 4 IIIOSIPI', OIltTt'U iu &CII mij L/aicro at ton cents. The deal was closed, and tlie Chester citizen sent his wagons | into the country Saturday afternoon, I secured lit'ty hales of cotton, loded it in express cars on the Carolitfa and Northwestern Saturday night, and the cotton was carried to the North Caro' Una mill Sunday. It got there in time to enable the mill to run today, j The story illustrates forcibly the cotton situation as it is. The mills ' are short of cotton, and the farmers ' are declining to sell. The mills will have to pay the prices asked by the I farmers, or close down. It looks like jit is the mills, instead of the farmers which have been caught this time. As I the Herald lias previously pointed out, it is not the farmers who are suffering now but the cotton mills and the business men. The farmers are all rijrht. The mills need cotton, and most of them, the Herald is informed, lack the money necessary to buy cotton in large lots; and they cannot get the money. This evidences the precarious situation as for as the mills are concerned.N In the case of other busnese men, conditions are about the same as with the cotton mills. v No Castes in Servla. Servia has come nearer to attaining the ideal of social equality than most countries. For it is a land in which there is neither aristocracy nor middle class, and in 1900 it possessed not a single pauper. It has, however, a multitude of fdacemen and officials, recruited mainly from the peasantry. The average Servian values comfort far moro. than progress, and is content as long as a moderate amount of work enables him to spend his evenings in the village wine shop, where, by the way, he generally keeps sober. Of discussing politics he will never tire, and this, with music and poetry and dancing, are the passions of his life. Everybody Good-Looklng.

Arrangement o\ Flowers. "Study the arrangement of flowers and plants in the windows of the florists," says an observing hostess. "Unless a woman is an artist she cannot hope to equal the skill shown by the professionals who arrange the display windows of the modern flower market, and I find it easier .and better to copy than to experiment. One of the-useful ideas I gleaned recently from the study of a beautifully arranged window was the possibility of test tubes us flower holders. These v^ere placed at each side of the handle of a basket of flowers, and were tied in place with many twinings of gauze ribbon and almost concealed by tiie many looped I bows. The ribbon was the palest blue, and in each test tube were a single full blown pink rose and a few buds." rr.i!ov'?d Compr^S. A poor tiller of the soil had owned for a number of years a valuable cow Of a sudden he began to find that the 1, ii.-.i ,.l\va.. i stood in her stall with b-r tail toward the south where the manner was, her head toward the north. He tried various means of making the cow stand tho other way. her herd to tho south and her tall to lhr> north, but no matter how many times he set her properly In her stall t iie always turned around. Finally there was nothing to do but rebuild the stall to suit the cow. Somewhat later war came and the poor tiller of the soil had to Join his regiment and go and fight for the fatherland. His wife and children, reduced to dire poverty, were forced to sell the cow to the butcher, who slaughtered her and sold her meat at famine prices to his fellow townsmen. At the same time. ; however, the mystery of the animal's j unaccountable beliavior was cleared ; up. In the body of the cow was found j a small compass which the poor man, | her owner, had lost some months beI fore from his watch chain. Evidently | It had fallen among the hay and been eaten.
