Beginaing Again.
4§ .
When sometimes our foet grow
. weary
On the rugged hills ot life,
The path stretching long and dreary
With trial and labor rife,
We pause on' the upward journey,
. Glancing baekward o'er valley
and glen ros
And sigh with an infinite longing
*. To return and “begin again.”
For behind is the dew of the morn
ing ~ :
With all its freshness and light,
Aud before us doubts and shadows;
~ And the chill and gloom of the
night ;
And we think of the sunny places
We passed 5o carelessly then,
And we sigh, ‘O Father permit me
~ To return and begin again.’
We think of the maty dear ones,
Whose lives touched ours, at
times, ;
Whose loving thoughts and smiles
Flout back like vesper chimes;
And sadly remember burdens,
We might have lightened then,—
Ah, gladly would we ease them
Could we ‘begin again I’
And yet how vain the seeking!
} Life’s duties press all of uson,
And who would shrink from the
} < ‘mfl‘el‘,
Or sigh for the sunshine that's
gone ? |
And it may be, not far on before us,
Wait tairer places than then ;
Our path may lead by still waters,
, Tho'gh we may not ‘begin again.’
Then upward and onward forever
| Be our path ou the hills of life!
But ere long a radiant dawning
Will glorify trial and strife,
And our Father's hand will lead us
| Tenderly upward then—-
In the joy and peace of the better
. World bihi-4
*u He'll let us “‘begin again.”
THE LOUSCIODS MELON.
A CROP THAT IS PAYING
GEORGIA HAND
SOMELY.
Whole Train Loads Handled Here.
Atlanta Constitution. ]
A million watermelons!
# There is 2 great deal of Cholera
morbus in that, is there not And
yet Atlanta will - handle over a
million watermelons this year.. Of
course she dees not. eat them all,
They are shipped by the hundred
thousand all over the south, but
Atlanta, is the distributing point,
and Atlanta merchants are the dis
tributors.
Indeed, Atlanta is the biggest
melon market in America.
Mr. J J Falvey, the commission
merchant who does the largest mel
on business, said on yesterday :
*“Th> melon season has been an
immense success. Peaches hurt
watermelons, and s 0 do cheap
grapes. This year we have had
few peaches, and the grapes are
late, so watermelons had it their
own way, -
*The melon merchants have made
money then ¢
‘I should say so. Atlanta has
already handled over seven hunds
red cars of watermelons. These
have netted the farmer from $4O
to $l5O a car. My best results with
one car was $l4B net to the grows
er. The two hundred cars I have
handled have averaged about §7O
net to the farmer. This makesa
very profitable crop, as it is easy
to grow a car load to the acre.—
There were some cars of ‘culls’ that
brought less, but good melons have
averaged seven cents a piece this
season, and ought to average four
cents apiece for the balance of the
season.”
‘How much net cash has Atlan
ta sent to the melon patches?
‘Not less than 835,000, andl it
ought ‘to reach 850,000 by the
close of the season. ‘l'here are train
loads daily shipped through At~
lanta to the West that we get no
account of, and of course hundreds
of ship loads thom- Valdosta, Quit~
sent to pit. ‘s m
crop is wvery lnportagt ous
is made with little trouble on spare
land, and brings the farmer cash in
‘the middle of the summer when he
‘can get it tor nothing else.’
‘What are thie biggest shipping
pointal .
Mr. J R Forrester, near Albany,
is the largest single shipper, and
l'm & hundred cars this vear.
i h' mv ‘h. bitl"t
lin*e,pcint for the Atlanta marke
et, Albany is a good one, so. is
Waldon and Bithville “The
farmers:in that ‘section are happy
and rich.just now from their melon
money.’
‘How many melons does Atlanta
eat a day?
I My best estimate is eight to ten
cars. It takes that many cars to
supply Atlanta and her suburos
every day. with about eleven huns
dred melons to the car. This in
cludes of eourse, the towns areund
Atlanta,’ . :
‘What class eat the most water.
melons ?
‘The negroes aré the best custo
mers of the watermelon merchant,
but, of course, all classes ent
them.’
‘What becomes of the rest of At
lanta’s shipments
Haver't you seen our melon exe
change down near the Central de
pot? There are fiv~ or six tracks
there, crowded every day with was
termelon cars. I have seen eighty
cars at one time on the tracks.—
Last weck we had seventy-five
cars one day, yesterday about
twenty-two cars. The buyers con
gregate there early in the moruing. l
They come from all the cities in
the South, and from the X'lorth—‘l
west. Our city wholesale and res
tail buyers are there also, and it is
a busy scene until late in the eves
ving. You can buy at this ex
change a dozen melons for your
retail teade, or a dozen cars. There
are speculators who buy two or
three car loads, and start Norid
with them, stopping at places along
the line of the road, and selling in
half, or quarter load lots. The
melon exchange is one of the
busiest places in Atlanta in its
seagon.’
‘Why is the season so success
ful?
‘Largely because ot the failure
of the peach and grape crop, but
also because the consumption of
welons increases every year. It is
a delicious fruit, healthy and cool
ing. Every year adds twenty-five
per cent. fo the numhge of people
who eat melons regularly. Our
tacilities for distribution are hetter
than formerly, and the business has
become. better regilated. The
growers are shipping better melons
than formerly, and keeping the
‘culls’ at home to feed their hogs
on. Altogether the business is in
fine shape, and melons are the best
summer crop our people can raise.
‘Think of pouring twenty thousand
“doHars into a little town like ‘Lees
‘burg in July and August for dis
\ tribution among the farmers. The
'melon crop plays & very important
' part in (Georgia's prosperity, and is
going to play a very large oue.’
' ‘What about canteloupes ”’
‘Canteloupes have mnot found
quite so good & market as water-‘
melons. You see canteloupes are
a fruit that is used principally on 1
the table, and by the better class of
people, and therefore the sale is
not large. A Negro does not carei
for a canteloupe, but is death on
watermelons. It is so with a large
class of people.” ‘
‘Whers do most of the cantes
loupes come from ? |
‘They come principally from
Macon. I suppose Atlanta receives
about fifty crates a day, and there
are about two dozen to the crate,
Another disadvantage in handling
canteloypes is that they will -not
keep long.”

', The Magic City.
- Writing from Birmingham, Als,
M. Quad says in the Detreit Free
Press: Birmingham sits in the cens
tre of one of the prettiest valleys
on earth. Three years ago she was
a mere dot in the green fields, hav
ing only about 6,000 population
and no business to speak of. Tox
day she has from 30,000 to 35,000
permanent population, and turn,
‘wheels of industry rolling. The
hills around her are gold mines for
all time to come, and the lands bes
yond are as rich and fertile as any
agriculturist ever put a plow in.
I saw in the streets tosday vehicles
which had come 40 miles and more
loaded with farm produce to be ex
changed for groceries and clothing.
No city car build up without an
agricultural country around it.
Birmiugham has this réquisite.
Three years ago it was a town in
mud, with ooly two poor hotels
and no public conveniences. One
could scarcely get about without
leaving his boots behind him on
some crossing., To-day I find a
strong and honest city government,
every member of which is pledged ‘
to public improvement, a splendid
system of drainage; complete water
works: a uniformed police force; a
fine fire department; two military
companies; street fountains; street‘
cars; seven or eight gzood hotels; o
large number of banks two or
three stock exchanges; a big opera
house; a fine daily paper; macadas
mized streets and stone sidewalks,
and whoever else belongs to a city ‘
fifty years old and populated by a
hundred thousand people. She“
may well eall herself the Magie
City. Itis magical how she has
grown. ‘

The Boom Just Started.
Dakota Bell. ]
During the ercurse of a sermon.
ina Dakota town last Sunday a
harsh creaking was heard to pro
ceed trom under the church. After
some time & movemeut was felt in
the building, «nd several members
cf the building got up and started
out, fearing an earthquake was
coming.
‘Friends,” said the minister, as
he stopped his sermon and leaned
on the pulpit, ‘pray be scated; there
is no danger.
‘But the church is moving, and
there’s something wrong,” replied
a lady who was very much agi
tated.
‘Oh, that's all right, Sister
Brown. You see there are soms
workmen under the building with
jackscrews, and now they have
hitched on to the back end with
ten yoke of oxen, and are snaking
the edifice over onto a back street.
In the morning, God willing, work
will commence on this lot on the
finest opera house west of Chicago.
1 tell you the-boom in this town is
only just nicely started.’

The Japanese are quicker than
their Chinese cousins in appropria
ting the advantages of Western
civilisation. While the Chinese
have been discussing the propriety
of building telegraph and railway
lines, in the face of & great popular
prejudice, the Japs have connected
their whole empire with the capi
tal by wires, and are extending
milroads in every direction, A
great trunk line is now under cones
structina, traversing the whole
country. In China the cautious
government is in possession of one
short line of telegraph and
the railronds are, as yet, on

A physiologist has launched =
theory that woman's fondness for
soents is due to her defective sense
of smell, It is a matter of evolu
tion. In the early stages of his
physical and intillectual develop
ment man had to employ his nose
in pursuit of game, while in wo
men, engaged in domestic work,
the sense of smell was not exerciss
ed. Tt is said that women, owing
to their defective sense of smell,
can endure a perfume which is
quite overpowering to men.
