Little Red Man.
An Indian baby’s first year
spent strapped up in a tight
cradle, such as you have seen
pictures. When the little feet
out of the cradle they will
learn to run about. Then the
| tie red man will mount on a
stalk, and take such rides as
take on a cane or a broom.
would say that his horse is
better, because it makes such
dust.
As soon as the little red
is out of her cradle she begins
carry a doll or a puppy on
back, just as her mamma used
carry her. She makes cunning
tle wigwams, too, and plays
house,” while her little
plays at hunting and fishing.
But the little red boys and girls
do not play all the time. They
learn to help their mothers, and
good Indian mother takes great
pains to teach her children to be
polite. She teaches them that they
must never ask a person his name ;
they must never pass between an
elder person and the fire ; and they
must never, never speak to older
people while they are talking.
When a little red man forgets
these very good rules, and is rude,
vvliat do you suppose his mother
says to him ? I am sure you can
never guess. She says, “Why,
you act like a little white child !”
Can it be that these little red men
can teach us lessons in politeness?

The Boy Hero.
Till time shall be no more,
can be no grander deed, in
sense, done by mortal
alone by a boy just out of
a mere lad of seventeen, who
was an officer in the 74th
ders, now the “Highland
Infantry. t t
Everybody knows the story
“The Loss ot the
how the troopship struck upon
rock ; how the soldiers were
ed in ranks to die, while the
men and children were being
ed ? how the w’hole force,
and men, stood at the salute
“Still inch by inch the doomed ship sank
low,
Yet under steadfast men. ”
Russell was ordered into one
the boats carrying the women and
children, for the purpose of com¬
manding it, and he sat with dim¬
med eyes in the stern, some way
off the doomed ship, watching the
forms of his beloved comrades and
fellows standing upright there. He
saw the ship go down, carrying
with it the hundreds of brave
hearts. He saw those fearful crea¬
tures of the deep seizing their
prey, and heard the screams of
scores of human beings torn to
pieces by sharks. Then, just when
all for him was safe, when to him
was given (with honor) life, ambi¬
tion, and glory, he saw a sailor’s
form rise close to the boat, and a
hand strive to grasp the side.
There was not room in the craft
for a single person more without
great risk of upsetting the boat.
But as the sailor’s face rose clear
at the boat side a W'Otnan in the
craft called out in agony : “Save
him ! Save him ! He is my hus¬
band !” No room in that boat for
one more ! But Russell looked at
the woman, then at the sailor iiis strutr- eyes

beseeching help, then at the dread
ed sharks feasting on every hand.
Alexander Cumine Russell rose
in the stern of the boat, With a
bold plunge he jumped clear of it,
and helped that sailor in to what
had been his own place—and safe¬
ty.- Then, amid a chorus of “God
bless you !” from every soul in the
boat, the young officer—a lad ol
seventeen, mind !—turned round
to meet his death. And those in
the boat shut their eyes and pray¬
ed. When they opened them again
Alexander Cumine Russell was
nowhere to be seen !—Windsor

How to Save Your Figs.
A gentleman on the Sand
lost all of the first crop of figs
the depredations of numerous
birds, wood-peckers and
infesting that region, When the
second fig crop came on, the feath
ered host prepared for another ban¬
quet, but were frustrated by a sim¬
ple device. Strings with fluttering
pennons of red tissue paper were
festooned around and about the
tree. The birds came, halted in an
adjacent tree, held a vociferous in¬
dignation meeting and retired baf¬
fled. This seems an effective fig
protection and may be commended
to the attention of the department
of agriculture.—Aug. Chronicle.
The Room We Have.

each of them could have a little

could have ten square miles. Ar¬

afford almost a square mile each to
their men, women and children,
while up in frozen Alaska there are
ten good square miles lor every
soul of population. Rhode Island
is the fullest state in the union,

Building’ Cars at the Shcq )S
of the Georgia Railroad 1
.
The announcement in The Chron¬
icle that the Georgia railroad, at its
shops in Augusta, is turning out l
hur.dteds of thousands of dollars
worth of cars, was the most impor¬
tant printed in Augusta in months.
It was a surprise to Augusta. It
has not been known that the rail-1
road was so well equipped in the
manufacturing line. I
However, the logic of the enter¬
prise is self-assertive, As we look |
into it to day we cannot understand!
why any railroad in this section
should go cast and west for cars— 1
Manufacturers freight cars or the of the finest of specials, j
east must get
the raw material for thesecars from 1
j ^ ie instance sou lh- where We have been told of 1
an a southern rail
way company gave an order for cars'
to a northern firm and actually !
1
hauled over its line the wood out
of which the cars were made, ^
freighting the raw material north j
in June and getting it back in the 1
.shape of cars in March. The i ( un- 1
business” of this is manifest.
General Manager Thomas K.]
Scott has done well in this enter-'
prise. He has demonstrated the i
superior equipment of the Georgia'
railroad’s shops, has shown that
Augusta has as competent work- !
city boast, and has ’
men as any can
kept in Augusta a manufacturing!
contract that represents a very sig¬
nificant outlay in wages. I

pronounces them first-class in every
