KNEELING AMONG THE LILIES Effect Of the Tolophono On tho Volco. ' An iutorvlow wus given recontly by Edwnrd J. Hull of New York city, who is widely known In tho lelephono Cold, find who is president of the Southern JJell Tcloplinno nml Telegraph company, jo tho Atlanta Constitution, in which ho mndo the. interesting point thnt "the Southern accent is rapidly disappear ing There are many causes. The Wutlicrncr travels more, ho uses tho language of roiunicrco today whore twenty yearn ago it was tho language of literature; but, nlmvc all, looms tho fact that tho long distnnco tclopliono in used bo much more generally and so frequently. Tho use of tho tolophono, lit t lo us the casual onlooker may think -of It, is bringing all normal voices to n samoncrs of pitch nml t;ngrnftlng n similarity" of enunciation. 1 fact, tho tolophono !h gradually changing the voices of Hjo nation." This is n rather (surprising stntoniont, and if it bo true and wo do" hot 'question Mr, Hall's fitatomout, forihe Is a keou and oxpor lonned observer it mist be due more to tho fooling of tho tolophonu user than tho person ho Is talking to is Home distance away than to any neces sity caused by tho Instrument itself. Teoplo generally uro apt to ralso tholr voices when using tho tolophono much higher than there In any need. Of course, when using tho long distance tolophono there is greater necessity for speaking louder and more distinctly than when speaking over a. local Hue. On tho other hand, tho damping ollVcf on electric waves is much greater with voiced of higher pitch than the lower ones. The bass voice should carry fur. thor than the treble. It is rather interesting to recall at this timo a htntcmont made somo timo ago that Trench is n better telcphono languago thnn Kngllsli.

When on Eastor day we pay tributo to the rlson Christ, wo register a pro test against all forms of injustice and oppression. When wo kneel among tho lilies wo count ourselves with tho dom oCracy which Christ camo to establish among men. If wo bo sincere wo must utter at least a brief prayer that the men and women who toll and struggle for existence may find fair recompense for their efforts and that the influence of this day may operate ovon in the henrts of tho trust magnates, who as sumo that becauso they monopolizo tho wealth of tho country thoy arc the trustees of God, divinely ordnlnod to administer that property according to their own pleasure. A great practical importanco nt taches to this day and tho reason for and the manner of its celebration. Na ture hns been bountiful, yet, because of tho greed of a few powerful mon, tho studenfs of government aro con fronted with tho fccrltfus problem of de vising ways nnd moans for- tho distri bution of that bounty, at least vto the extent that tho ninny may live in com- ion oven tnougn tno taw nourish in luxury. It hns been written that, "If the tender, profound and sympathizing lovo practiced nnd recommended by Jesus woro paramount In every heart, the loftiest nnd most glorious idea of hu man society would be realized and lit tlo bo wnnted to mnko this world a kingdom of honven." It does not scorn possiblo for thnt profound lo.vo to bo como paramount in every heart; yet thoso who nro willing to "live nnd let live" will undertnko to nppronch for themselves, as nearly as possiblo, that high aspiration; it will bo no loss their duty to bring Influence, through just nnd wholesome- laws of restraint, gninst men who recognize no other law thnn their own in tho accumula tion of property and in tho contempla tion of tho rights of others. It will bo no easy task to preserve Knstor and similar days in a land where- tho many sow while tho few reap; nnd thoso prolatcs who rofrnin from crying out ngainst tho nccumuln tlon of wealth through unjust laws may yet learn that it is a difficult task to pronch of tho risou Christ to hungry men and women nnd to naked children Thoro nro men who hold no particular croed, but delight to rovol in tho elo quence, tho wisdom and tho lovo of tho Naaarenc; there aro men who, even though outside of tho church, under take in their own way with many a strugglo and with an occasional tri umph, to follow Him who said, "I am tho way, tho truth and the life." Is it not, then, tho part of His more pre tentious champions to lend n hand so that tho justico for which Christ stood shall fiud rolleetion in tho government under which wo livoi A Nebraska poef, nnd one of tho sweetest singers of nil tho poets of to day, has written: "This Easter mom wo stand mid lilies white whllo clear toned voices in the chancel sing tho '(llorla in Excelsls,' penco to man. ud oft repeated downward tlonts to. us tho chornl tmiver In accents sweet and clear, 'Grant U9 Thy penco, oh Christ, grant us Thy peace.' " Hut with all tho songs nnd the prnvers, with all tho ceremonies nnd the inspir ing otVorts which this day recalls, with nil tho love, with all tho truth, with alj tho example with all tho Christ there is no pence! In this land we see on the ono hand powerful men accumu lating, through unjust laws and favor- Itlsm at the hands of government's representatives, millions upon millions of wealth, while in spite of our boast od prosperity tho problem nmoiig tho masses of obtaining fair recompense for toll Is becoming moro and more dif ficult of solution. .lustice, tho uttributo of divine na ture, must bo more closely associated with power, so that "whatever Is jus tice may bo power, and whntever is "power may bo justince." Somo one hns raid that justice Is "tho great and simple principle which Is tho secret of success In all government, as essential to tho training of un iufant, as to tho control of ti mighty nation." And so When it is apparent thnt those who Jtoil aro belug moro and more deniod tho justice to which they nro entitled, it is fitting thnt on this Rust or day of IfKHl mon and women who bend the kneo In tho presence of tho risen Christ shall not- forget tho things for which Ho stood nud shall consecrate them selves, ns citiztns as well ns church men, to tho duty with which they are confronted. You Imvo soon a tiny plant, spring ing up around u rock, seeking to .clothe with its groon leaves tne rugged hind ranee, to its growth. That littlo plant is, u symbol of this day. Qiven la Its mako use of its endowment and, al though at times well nigh destroyed, it struggles upward to contribute Its beauty and fragranco to the world it was Intended to adorn. Tho rock of selfishness, of meanness, of coriquest, of man's inhumanity to man, of war and greed and avarice, needs to be re moved in order that the principle for which this day stands may be recog nized by all mon. Yet in spito of the discouragement, tho injustice and tho wrongs to which tho weak and helpless aro subjected, there are, in this day, and in. tho things It represents, hope nnd Inspiration to those who would strugglo for the great est good to the greatest number. Tho littlo child bending in true rev erenco at tho mother's kneo; the gray haired man waiting near close of well spent lifo for dawn to come; the aged mother with scars of heart as numer ous as her years, whose devotion has sustnincd her in aflliction and whose cxamplo has inspired those who have como within tho benediction of her holy faith; the sacrifices of parent for child; tho devotion of frlond to friend; tho kind offices of tho strong to tho af flicted; the mlto given to charity; the cup of cold water; tho tear that springs unbidden for another's woes all these bear testimony to tho risen Christ. Theso provido the hope that in God's good timo men nnd women may be able to kneel among tho lilies with love, "tho crowning grnco of human ity," in their hearts; with justice re vealed in tho national life; with truth written upon, the statute books; with happiness re-established wherever they hnvo dethroned It nnd with oppression abandoned wherovcr they aro rcspousi bio for it.

Tho things that strike ono first and surprise ono most in such Chinese cities as Canton, Soochow and' Ilnng chow, are tho nnrrowncss of tho busi ne stroets and tho width, of tho shop doors. In our cities tho streets are always four or" fivo times as wido as tho entrance to tho. buildings, bnt in China tho rovorso is tho enso. The front of n Chinese shop is all door and its width, ns a rule, is two or throo times that of tho thoroughfare upon which it opens, so thnt it is really easier to hand a package to a customer on tho other side of the strcot than to pass it to him ncross the width of tho door. Great Dragon streot tho Broadway of Soochow Is only six or seven foot in width, whllo tho doors of tho business houses that stand nlong it would permit tho en trnnco of two carriages abreast. In such streets wheeled vehicles, of courso, cannot bo employed, and goods of nil kinds, from garden vegetables and dressod hogs to furniture, build ing materials and bnlcs of silk, aro suspended from shoulder poles nnd carried' by coolio porter. Animals are not much used for the transportation of merchandise, on account of the lateral spaco necessarily occupied by pack saddles and packs. Two ladon A Live Wire Every nerve is a live wire connecting some part of the body with the brain. .They are so numerous that if you pene trate the skjw with the point of a needle you will touch a nerve and receive a shock pain it is called. Aches and pains come from a pressure, strain or in jury to a nerve; the more prom inent the nerve the greater the pain. When the pain comes from a large nerve it is called Neuralgia whether it be the facial nerves, or the heart, stomach, sciatic or other prominent nerve , branch. To stop pain, then, you must relieve the strain or pressure upon the nerves. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills do this. "I fluttered Intense pain, caused by neuralcln- I doctored and used vari ous medicines without sotting relief until I becan taking: Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain I'llls.

Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind pack horses could hardly squeczo past each other in tho street of tho Great Dragon, nud pedestrians nro often com polled to step, into tho shops in ordor to got out of tho way of passing files of coollos carrying bulky goods. Although a largo part of tho heavy merchandise of Soochow is distributed by means of the canals, enough goes through tho streets to mako wnlking along them in a strnlght lino absolutely Impossible. Progress from ono point to another is mndo by u series of dodges, with an occasional. jump into tho open fron of a shop or a plunge into a side alley, in order to nvolij a donkey train, a funcrnl procession, or tho palanquin of a mnndarin. Tho business thoroughfares of a Chi nese city nro less noisy than ours, be causo thoro is no rumble of wheels over the pavomontsj but tho nir is fillod from morning to night with cries of warning from the hundreds of coolies who are constantly pnssing to and fro with box liko palanquins slung on long poles or with heavy loads of rice, silk, tea, rof ing tiles, ilro wood, timber, machinery, books, crates or fowls, immenso white radishes, bales of straw, or fivo gallon tins of American kerosene. Nobody gets run over, becauso thero are no wheels; but everybody who cannot dodgo with ngllity gots squcezod, hustlod or bump ed. For this renson nn inexperienced foreigner who wishes to exploro the streets of a Chinese city, will do well to mount a dunkey, or hire coolies to carry him in n sedan chnir.
