TYBEE, the queen of Seashore

As the summer approaches, and the
heating rays of a summer sun de¬
scends upon the earth, withering
the flowers, searing the leaves,
bringing into view the laid by

that those seeking rest, recreation
and pleasure, begin to look around
for the resort offering the most ad

The northern coast may have its
charms for some, the mountains for
others, but for the joys of summer,
where gayety and gladness reigns
: supreme, there’s no place like

Edison’s Latest Triumph.
“Mr. Edison has been success
ful in so many great undertakings
squired inventive
the Philadelphia Record, 'that the
| world has reason to accept as tiue
his statements as to the economic
effects of one ot his new discoter
»es. A practical man of science,.
Professor Serviss, has made an in
timate study of the Edison storage
battery, and he indorses the opin
j ion of the inventor that it will do
away with the trolley, the locomo
tive and the horse, Extravagant
as this claim may seein, it is not
more incredible than the announce
ment of the discovery of the inean

tricians who had maintained that
it must be forever impracticable light of less to |
produce an electric
than 200-candle power.
•‘An essential feature of the cell I
of the new battery—and the fea¬
ture which is most original—is a
superoxide of nickel, This forms
the positive pole, and in effect
overcomes all the defects which
have prevented the success of
formeT storage battery systems.
| All the expectations which the first
use of stored electricity aroused
were defeated by the delects which
,
this new combination of the quali
ties of iron and nickel will over
come. The advantages of the new
cell are found to be : The absence
of deterioration by work ; large
storage capacity with light weight;
capability of being rapidly charged
and discharged and of withstand
ing careless treatment; and, final¬
ly, cheapness. It is confidently
affirmed that not only shall we
have no trolleys, locomotives or
horses in the future, but no more
puffing steam auto-wagons, no
more noisy gas engines and no
more costly subways. Everything
that moves 011 wheels will be driv
eu , by stored . , electricity, ,

AH ODE TO FACTORY PEOPLF.
You think we factory people
Are an unimportant lot
u "J 1t 1 yri I’ltft-y'yubV tl>rgodr ••••
^ nc j a f ter j ]e i iac j made us
jj e thought he would let us stay
^ nc j rani bi e round the earth
To pass the time away.
1 know they are unimportant
In one sense of the word :
For the triumph of earthly fame
Their names are seldom heard.
Many of them have a heart
That is noble, true and kind
They will diyide with those in need,
If they only have a dime,
Them treasure is . in . Heaven
^ ot here m gold or bank
They d rather trust it with the Lord
Than put it in a bank.
And thus it is while at work
.We card, we spin and weave,
We are happy and contented
We have little time to grieve.
And the battle of spinning frame
The music of the loom
Put sorrow, care and pain to flight
And dispels clouds of gloom.
We thus forget our troubles
And trials here below
As we listen to our shuttle
While they go to and fro.
Yes, we watch the busy shuttle
As back and forth it speeds
And love to see the cuts marks
Coming through the reeds.
Say, you don’t like factory people ?
Well that’s sinful, I’ll declare.
If by chance you get to Heaven
There will be factory people there,
When you meet us in Heaven
Don’t elevate your nose ;
We ’ 11 not have black oil on our hands
Nor cotton on our clothes.

The author of the above poem is
an employe in the Mary-Leila
Cotton Mills, located at Greenes
boro, Ga., and was published re¬
cently in the local paper of that
town, and we desire to congratu¬
late Miss Kilgore upon her effort,
and trust that she will give the fu¬
ture productions of her gifted pen
to the public, for we believe if the
sentiment and logic which she has
enunciated in the above lines were
a living, vital principle in the lifes
all of us, the world would be
the brighter and happier for it.
