Dr. Smith dealt In a brilliant style with the progress of mankind to the present state of affairs and still went beyond prophesying a world- wide community that when a fact will make a regular Arcadia of Moth- Earth. Beginning with the cal revolutions which brought with them the emancipation of men and women from the servility of king- trodden countries, going through the progress brought with it by tries, up to the substitution of mere muscle power by natural power by the brain of men, and fin- ally coming to the perfect living. Dr. Smith held the attention of his audience every second of his very interesting talk. In concise speech and brilliant manner he told of the perfect understanding that must be brought Into each In order to have a beau- physically and ally, If we may speak of a town In such personal terms. No doubt that Dr. Smith's address at the club will sink deep into the heart of every member who heard him and that the seed sown will find ready ground In the minds of the people of Greenville. Mr. J. B. Higgs then made some remarks on the waterways that were very timely. Attention was then called to the fact that the Atlantic Coast Line good roads train will spend tonight in Greenville, and the suggestion was made to have the gentlemen on the train visit the club tonight and ad- dress the people of the town on the good roads question.

The position of literary men in pan differs in many especial respects from that which Is accorded writers of prominence in the western world, writes Paul S. the North American Review. The Individuality of literary fame and literary person- in Its various aspects have not been developed In the orient to nearly the same extent as In the west. The I great books to which men return again and again fur guidance and inspiration have written thousands of years, those men who earned fame there- after won their laurels by writing com- upon the classics.

While learning was always respected, authorship never bad the position Japan oriental countries that It has enjoyed In the west from the Greeks to the present. The Japanese mind will excel in the future In many directions, but the greatest development may be expected in those activities for which racial social experience has best ed the intellect. A strong but selective realism in literature, delicate word painting, the successful for mastery over the forces of nature, a grasp of social and political relation- are among the things we may expect from Japan of the future.

H. Brown, of Ala. it had not been for Dr. King's New Discovery. She was down In her bed, not able to get up without help. She had a severe bronchial trouble and a dreadful cough. I got her a bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery, and she soon break up in small lumps the size of marbles. This is the ideal condition of the subsoil for breaking. To sub- soil in the spring or early summer, when it ls wet is of doubtful value, and sometimes does much actual harm. The same facts also largely apply to deep plowing, that is, to plowing that is deeper than the land hag been previously broken. The objection lo deep plowing in the fall is that if winter-grown are sown a is difficult to obtain unless rains fall at the right time. This can only be overcome by early breaking and frequent harrowing be- fore the are sown. Another objection to deep plowing or in the fall that the ground is so hard that it breaks up and too much team force is required to do the work. The first difficulty can be overcome to some ex- tent by disking the land before It ls plowed, and then harrowing or disk- the same day after it ls plowed. The necessity for more team force can not be avoided. It requires more teams to plow hard ground, but It requires more team force than we posses to do good plowing at any time and we may as well begin to shape our plans for securing the needed Increase In work In numbers and weight The disk plow will break hard land better than tho plow, but It requires force to pull It. There ls no way of avoiding this. We don't need that run light; for no one ever saw a plow do good work that ran light The plow that does what should be expected of a plow Is to pull hard and require good team force to handle It.
