John Allen, of Tupelo, who, while in
Congress, used to he known as “Private
John,’’ enjoys telling of a unique
character near his home known as Jaap
White.
Jasp had lived in single blessedness
a good many years, but finally in the
evening of his life he married, and in
due time an heir was born to nim. The
j day after this momentous event Mr.
j Allen met Jasp in the street.
! "1 understand. Jasp,” said the Pri-
! vate, “that you have a lino baby boy
[ up at your place. Have you decided on
his name?’’
“Yes, suh,’’ chuckled Jasp; “we’ve
already decided on a name.”
“What’s it to be?”
Jasper traced one toe reflectively in
a semi-circle about him.
“You know, suh,” he said, finally,
"I’s alius been a pow’ful ban’ fer dem
scripture folks, an’ so I’s decided t’
name de kid after som o’ de big officers
what de hible talks 'bout. I’s settled
on de name Beelzebub.”
“Beelzebub 1’’
“Yes, suh, dat’s de name,” answered
Jasp, in a tone betokening finality.
“Beelzebub is a mighty tine name,
suh. It shore looks like I’s aspirin’
pow’ful high, but 1 liggers dat boy’ll
shorely do credit to his namesake.”
The Southern White.
Collier's Weekly.
In the “Outlook,” the other day, Ly
man Abbott spoke of his sympathy
with the intense feelings of the South
ern white—his “strong confirmation”
of the enlightened views of President
Eliot and Ambassador Bryce about the
South’s ultimate problem. To these
names may be added that of Thomas
Wentwoith Higginson, survivor of the
generation of abolition leaders and
commander of a colored regiment dur
ing the Civil War. In declining an in
vitation to attend a conference on the
status of the negro, he deplored all
such agitation, which makes the prob
lem of the South only more difficult.
The day may yet come when the North
will formally acknowledge that the
South’s stubborn refusal, since the
Civil War, to yield an inch of its stand
in the matter of the relations of the
races was an epochal contribution to
the white race in America, which, un
der the outrageous difficulties which
the North pressed down upon the
South, could not have been done differ
ently. Probably it would be impossi
ble to prophesy a day more unhappy
for this continent than the one on
which the Southern white should abate
une iota of his race-pride.

She raised her head from his shoul
der for a moment.
“Do you believe that exercise and
lotions and toilet preparations will im
prove a woman’s looks?” she asked.
He pressed her blonde curls back
upon his chest.
“They couldn’t improve the looks of
some women.” lie said.
“Whose?” she asked.
“Well, yours and Violet Cochrane’s
for instance,” he replied thoughtlessly.
“1 don’t understand you,” she said,
raising her head for the second time
and chilling him with a look. “We are
not, at all alike.”
“I mean,” he replied, and thinking
quickly, “that your looks couldn’t be
improved, because they are perfect as
they are, and that hers couldn’t be im
prove because no amount of work could
make her pretty.”
And the firelight flickered knowingly
as she sighed a great sigh of content
ment and relief, while he drew a deep
breath.
God bless the girl who works! She
is not too proud to earn her own living,
or ashamed to be caught at her daily
task. She smiles at you from behind
ths desk, counter, or printer’s case.
There is a sweet memory of her in ev
erything she touches. She is like a
mountaineer already far up the preci
pice, climbing, struggling, rejoicing.
The sight is nn inspiration. It is an
honor to know the girl and be worthy
of her esteem. Lift your hat to her.

queen of the realm of womanhood. She
is a princess among the toilers. Her

sweeping, printer’s ink, or other signs
of honest toil, but they stay misfor

God bless and protect the girl who

A certain young man's friends
thought he was dead, hut he was only
in a state of coma. When in ample
time to avoid being buried he showed
signs of life he was asked how it seem
ed to be dead.
“Dead,” he exclained. “I wasn’t
dead. I knew all that was going on.
And I knew I wasn’t dead, too, because
my feet were cold and I was hungry.”
“But how did that fact make you
think you were still alive?” asked one
of the curious.
“Well, this way: I knew that if I
were in heaven I wouldn’t he hungry,
and if I was in the other place my feet
wouldn’t be cold.”

Obituary.
“Suffer little children to come unto
Me, and forbid them not, for of such is
the kingdom of God.”
Since God in I lie loving kindness has
called into Hi upper fold our precious
baby, Joseph Gruse, we can no longer
claim the right to enroll him as one of
our baby band. Therefore, the children
of the primary department of the First
Methodist Sunday-school, on last Sun
day morning, lovingly and reverently
removed the dear name from their baby
roll and gave it a place on that which
commemorates “Our Little Ones With
Jesus.” These little ones are held ever
in sweet remembrance, and help to
keep us very close to the dear Savior,
whose they are. The children unite
with their teacher in tender sympathy
for the dear mother and father, sister
and brothers, whose hearts are sad be
cause baby is gone.
One little lamb is in (ho upper .fold,
From summer's heat and winter's void)
Safe from earth’s troubles and its dreams untrue,
One little lamb so fair awaits you there.
One previous child whose pattering: feet
With holy prophets tread the golden street.
Or wander ever ’mid blest Eden’s bow’rs.
Is waiting: your coming: thro’ the golden hours.
One little lamb from cv’ry sorrow free,
Thro’ years’ unending eternity,
From heat of summer and from winter’s cold,
Is waiting for you in the upper fold.

An old lawyer, who is a noted wit,
has for a partner another old fellow
who is very conservative and strait
laced.
Recently the wit remarked to his
partner that it was advisable to employ
a female stenographer in the office,
maintaining that stenographers of that
variety were much more satisfactory
than males.
But the partner didn’t like the idea.
“My dear fellow,” he objected, “I
don’t think it would be proper. It
wouldn’t do, wouldn’t do at all. You
see, here 1 should be in the office, hour
after hour every day, quite alone with
the young lady, and—”

twinkling eye, “couldn’t you holler?”
