CHAPTER V
TKIIKNA.
The gray down stealing into the de-"lute
rooms win -h Clm*ep|> Ninto calloil home
revenled the pmlroiio sentud nt n talilf*,
drinking deeply from th contentt of
black bottle, nnd counting over his ill
gotten gnini.
Poor little Tereen h id heen brought honn
an hour previous, nnd ho hud tiken tint
trouhle to apply mime liniment to hoi
wounded nrm mid hind it up properly
Then she hnd aunk into the ileop slum
ber of eibanation.
Of nil that had occurred fiiulio had been
ignorant, ami it wiu. destined that lie ahouUl
not meet his sister that morning before he
left the house
With tho full approach of morning Santo
bad sat about preparing the rude morning
meal. Anneoraaion of w nith m vei aroused
• M’lttg a relief to banks from the e:
cessive accumulation of silver coin.
The festive but hard-working cot
ton worm has made his appearance
in the cotton fields in some parts of
the South. Estimates of the damage
be is likely to do are now in older.
Mr. Mulhall, the English statisti
clan, estimates that tho annual in
crease in wealth of each cf these
countries per rear is: Germany,
1200,000,000; Great Britain, *425.-
000,000; France, *375,000,000, and
the United States, *875,000,000.
Dr. Tucker writes a three column
article in tho Index to prove that
women ought not to preach. His
argument seems to be conclusive,
and ought to be read by the female
evangelists who are tramping over
the country under the name of the
Salvation Army
In Cleveland county, Ohio, a queer
marriage occurred. Miss Sarah Law
rence, sixty two years old and 237
pounds heavy, wedded Charles Love,
fwenty-two years old and 110 pounds
light. The bride was very lich and
the husband poor as a rat, but he was
love all over.

Fashion may change iu some things
but au old well tried remedy is grap
pled with hooks of steel. Such is
White’s Cream Vermifuge, which
has a larger sale than any so called
remedy, because it never fails to ex
pel worms from a child who is their
victim. Therefore do not defer its
use, but relieve your child speedily
a dose of White’s Cream Vermi-
An exchange wonders why it is
that one scarcely ever meets with a
woman who stutters. Why bless your
soul, esteemed contemporary, a wo
man whose powers of speech are re
stricted, dies young. A man may
stutter and live, but a woman —well
she must talk or die. No wonder, j
then, that stuttering woman are I
rarely, if ever, met with.*
The gold held by the Treasury in |
its vaults at Washington weighs 519 ,
tons. If packed into ordinary carts,
one ton to each cart, it would make ;
a procession two miles long, allowing i
twenty feet of space for the move
ment of each horse and cart. The
silver in the same vaults weighs 7.995
tons. Measuring it in carts, as in
the case of tho gold, it would require
the services of 7,395 horses and
carts to transport it and would make
a procession over twenty-one miles
in length.
Tho large accumulation of the
over taxed people’s money is to be
distributed by the Secretary’s ar.tie-'
ipatiug the payment of coupons and
bonds. It is estimated that the surplus
will be reduced §46,000,000, which
will find a wide distribution in seek
ing investments in various sections of
the country. The Augusta Chron
icle says : “There are good paying
investments in the South, and no bet
ter place than Georgia can be found
for a portion of the millions availa
ble for investment by the Nation’s
debt. We arc looking for cheaper
money for the South as one of the
results of an abundance of the mon
ey at the North.”
The seasons have been so favora
ble to the growth of grass that this
crop wherever allowed to grow is ex.
ceilent, and if our farmers will con
vert this grass into hay, they wilj
find their labor in so doing well re
warded. An abundance of rough
forage for live stock through the
winter and spring months is a very
great help to the farmer. No doubt
the want of a sufficiency of hay in
the spiring accounts for the poor con
dition of much of the farm stock in j
the spring season. Hence, where j
ib abundant with a few days
fail weather the farmers can readily
supply this want. There is not a
sufficiency of fodder produced for
the stock, and there is no need for
it to be supplemented with Western
hay, when an abundance of hay can
he made here. Hence, we say to our
farmer friends, make hay no v, if the
bun w... shine. [Monroe Advertiser.
