CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING. APRIL 18. 1884.
Two Pictures from Life.
FIRST LETTER
Pet dogs arc a great hobby in
the fashionable world of New
York and other large cities.
A certain species of bulLterrier,
grown exceedingly email by breed
ing and doses of gin, is a favorite
of women wealthy enough to afford
indulgence in such pets. They are
hideously misshapen little monsters
but the uglier they are the more
they arc valued. They are taken
out every daj T l>y their mistreses or
footmen for an airing, wearing em
broidered coats and gold collars on
which their name® e engraved or
set in jewels.
One of these dogs died in Phila
delphia lately, and formal notice
of the funeral was given to the
friends of its mistress, who
sent their dogs in cariiages with
liveried footman, etc. The dead
was laid in a satin-lined, silver
mounted coffin; offerings of flowers
sent, and a costly monument erect
ed over its grave.
“Beppo,” the pet of a wealthy
young lady, lately sent out cards
for a reception, which was attend
ed by all the haut ton of dogdom.
The homely little beasts sent to
tho reception,were served on dainty
china, with all the delicacies of the
caterer’s art. The feast, floral de
corations, etc., cost more than
S2OO.
SECOND PICTURE.
On the week which Beppo held
liis reception, an entertainment of
another kind was given by a young
girl who lived near Beppo’s mis
tress. She had spent the last sum
mer in a little village in one of the
hill counties of Pennsylvania.
The clergyman of this place
was a scholarly man of much intel
ligent force. His wife was a refl li
ed, sensitive woman. They had
flve children. The clergyman gave
up a profession in which he might
have grown rich, to serve the
Master he loved, in ministering to
his fellow-men.
His salary was S4OO a year, and
that often was not paid when it
was needed. In other words, here
was a man who had the education,
tastes, and habits of the very high
est class; who naturally washed to
educate his children; who was ob
liged to live as a gentleman, and to
exercise hospitality and charity,
upon the wages of a day laborer.
Miss guessed something of
the privation of the good man and
his family during her stay in the
village. Last winter, out of her al
lowance, (which WRB a liberal one)
from her rich father, she made up
a box for pastor's family, in which
she declared there should be noth
ing absolutely necessary. “Let
them, for once in their lives, have
a taste of indulgence,” she said,
“It will be like water to a thirsty
soul.”
The great box arrived late in
the evening of a raw November
day, just as the clergyman and his
family rose up from their scanty
supper. For a mouth there had
been no meat or butter on that
table.
The family grew red with excite
ment as they gathered around the
box. The lid was knocked off.
Ont came warm winter cloaks and
caps for boys and girls, an over
coat for the minister, and a pretty
soft dress for his wife, all new.
“Why” said the donor, “should
we give the man who leads us to
God our cast off clothes?”
There were books and magizincs
for the clergyman, and an engrave
ing of a noble picture to hang up
on the wall, toys for little
Mary, and packages of flower seed
and a huge boxof candy for every
body, and then there was a letter
encloseing a check which would
send the boys to a good school for
two years.
When they all knelt together
that night and the clergyman tried
to pray for their kind friend, his
voice choked so that he could not
speak.
Theso are two companion pic
tures for our friends to hang in
J heir memory. Both are taken
from real life.—Lonikjn Specta

What Ailed O iver
“Get up, little boy! You're lying
| in lied too long; breakfast will soon
be ready. The canary bird has
taken its bath, and is now singing
a sweet song. Get up, get up, or
I shall throw this pillow at yon!”
That is what sister Charlotte
said to Oliver Recd, one frosty
morning. He was a good little
fellow, but he had one fault, he
was too fond of lying in bed in the
morning,
“Don't throw the pillow at me!”
cried Oliver; “I'll promise to get
up in flve minutes.”
“If you would be ‘healthy, weal
thy and wise,’ yon must rise early,
little boy,” said Charlotte.
When Oliver came down to the
breakfast table, his father said:
“How is this Oliver? It on are
late again.”
Oliver hung his head, and Char
lotte said:
“I woke him in good time, father
but he went off to s’cep again the
minute I left the room though he
promised to be up in flve minutes.”
“I went to sleep and forgot all
about it,” said Oliver.
“Come here, my boy, and let me
feel your pulse,” said his father.
“I should not wonder if Oliver
were suffering from a disease wh’ch
is very common at this time.”
“Oliver gave his hand to his
father, who after feelirtg his pulse
said: “Yes it is as I thought,
poor Oliver has Slack's disease.
Take him up to bed again. Keep
his breakfast warm by the fire,
and when he feels stronti enousrh
he can eat it. He may stay at
home from school to-day.”
The little boy wondered what
Slack’s disease could be; but he
Avent up stairs with his sister, and
was put to bed. He could not
sleep, however. He heard children
playing out of doors, “Ponto”
barking, and Tommy the canary
bird, singing a sweet song.
Then Oliver called to his sister,
and said:
“Charlotte, what is Slack’s dis
ease? Is it dangerous?”
“I rather think.” said Charlotte.
“You dear little simpleton, don’t
you know what father meant?
He meant you were troubled with
idleness—a sad complaint 1
Oliver saw that a tiiek had been
played on him. He Jumped out
of bed, dressed and ate his break
fast, and ran off to school, where
be arrived just in time.
Since that day Oliver has been
the first up in the house. He is no
longer troubled with Slack’s disease
and rcmembcis that “an idle soul
shall suffer hunger.” (Pr0V.19:15).
Children’s Friend.
A Quick Temper.—What did I
hear you say, Theodore?—that
you had a quick temper, but were
soon over it; and that it was a
word and a blow with you some
times, but you were always sorry
as soon as it was over?
Ah, my boy, I'm afraid that
was the way with Cain. People
almost seem to pride themselves
on having quick tempers, as though
they were not things to he ashamed
of, and fought against, and prayed
over with tears. God’s word
does not take your view of it, for
it says expressly that “He that is
slow to anger is better than the :
mighty;’’ that “Better is he that
ruleth his own spirit than he that
taketh a city;” and “Anger rest
eth in the bosom of fools.”
A man who carries a quick tem
per about with him is much like a
man who rides a horse which has
the trick of running away. You
wouldn't care to own a runaway
horse, would yon?
When you feel the fierce spirit
rising, do not speak until you can
speak calmly, whatever maybe the
provocation. Words do lots of
mischief. Resolve, as God helps
you, that you will imitate our sav
ior, who was always gentle, and
when he was reviled, reviled not
again.—Child’s world.

Useful Information.
HOW SHALL WE SELL HOGS?
A question of financial impor
tance to farmers is often asked of
each other in regard to the shiink
age of hogs in dressing to decide
what should be the difference in
the price between live and dressed
hogs. A close calculator selected
twenty pigs, they were fed and
fattened, though not large, with
the following results. We give
below the exact weights, alive and
dressed:

The manure will abundantly pay
for the care of hogs when proper
ly saved. The fatter hogs become
the clcscr their quarters may be,
for they require only rest.
The following table gives nearly
the following quantities of meal,
flour and bread, viz:
GO Ibfl. Wheat makes 45 lbs. flour, 54 lbs. bread.

48 “ Barley “ 37X‘‘ “ 59 “
40 “ Oats “ 22 z \-' *• 30 “
Tomato Wine.—Take small
ripe tomatoes, pick off the stems
and wash them, mash and strain
through a linen bag, let it stand
until the pulp is settled, then mens
ure. Add three pounds of sugar
to a gallon of juice. Put into a
cask to ferment, then bottle and
put away for use. If two gallons
of water arc added to five gallons
of juice, it makes pretty fair wine.
Ottawa Root Beer.—Take one
ounce each of sassafras, allspice,
yellow dock and winter green; one
half ounce each wild cherry bark
and coriander; | ounce hops
and three quarts of molasses.
Pour sufficient boiling water on
the ingredients and let them stand
24 hours; filter the liquor, and add
one-half pint of yeast, and it is
ready for use in twenty-four hours.

Last Thursday one of Dr Verde
ry’s little boys shot another one in
the eye with an arrow, injuring it
severely.
We learn that Quince Cates, liv
ing near Brownsville, happened to
the misfortune, to get his left eye
badly injured. He is a blacksmith
and a piece of iron which he cut off
flew up and struck him in the eye,
cutting the ball seriously. It hap
pened last Thursday.
We are informed that Mr James
Crews, who lives in this county, is
laboring under an aberrationof
of mind. He became dangerous,
and Tuesday he was brought to
town to be tried’and adjudged a lun
atic. The ordinaly being absent his
wife secured the issuing of a peace
warrant, and he was brought be
fore .1 ustice Feely and Cash and
committed to jailin default of bail.
He will be brought before the
i Ordinary on his return and adjudg-
I ed a lunatic. —Douglassville Star.
The Lord’s prayer is not as some
fancy, the easiest, the most natural

i but it is slowly learned by heart.—
