A writer in a St. Louis paper
defines a widow to be ons who has
lost her husband and a grass widow
to be onc who has simply mislaid
him,
“Blifking must be a very generous
man. I heard him say last night
that he would lend a friend his last
dollar.”
“] know it,” was the reply. ‘But
he’s so rich that he never gets down
to bis last dollar.”
‘What could you have been think
ing of to engage yourself to three
men
‘Well, wmother, told me my fiance
must be rich, irtelligent, handsome
and of the best moral character; and
as 1 couldn’t hope for all that in one
man, I had to take three.’
He—*lf you dia not love me, why |
did you encourage me ?’ %
She—‘'l? Ercourage you ? i
He—'For two seasons you have |
accepted every one of my invita- '
tions to the theatre and buggy rid-|
ing.’ |
She—*‘That was not because IJ
loved you; it was because I loved
the theatre and buggy riding,’
At Thomasville Monday, Harry
Williams inserted his hand into a
wood box sitting by the fireplace in
Lis room to get a splinter. Much to
the astonishment and fright of the
little tellow when he withdrew his
hand he held in his grasp. not the
desired piece of kindling, but a live
rat snake about two feet long. To
say that Harry was scared is putting
it mild. He hasn’t recovered from
his fright yet, and row when splin
ters are wanted some one else has to
get them,
Many a poor young man seeks a
government clerkship in order that
he may earn his support while he is
studying his profession. He is
playing with fire. He 1s taking up
as a staff that which is likely to
beccme necessary to him asa crutch.
He is in danger of discovering when
his protession is learned, that ‘he
has not the moral courage to drop
his government stipend. 1t would
have been infinitely better--it might
have been his making—if he had
toiled tor scantier dollars in a man
lier way. :
The Dalton Citizen tells of an ad~
venture of a party of citizens near
that place. Henry Stafford, John
Camp, Bob Black and Jim Wills
started to walk across the bottoms
near the Bitting place where there
had been back water from Mil! creek.
They had not proceeded far when
they suddenly found themselves in
the midst of a bed of quicksand,
which came very near engulfing them
in its treacherous naw. After a
hard. struggle, and by assisting one
another, they finally managed to get
to solid ground. It was a narrow
escape, however, and they say they
pever want to experience another
such adventure.
'NEVER MIND ABOUT YOUR NEIGH
! YOR
Itisa fact, locally and generally,
Ithat when any commodity oi neces
sity to mah or beast i 3 scarce the
price of it advances. No matter
what the surrounding conditions,
supply and demand have much to
do with prices. Only a few daysago
coal hecame scarce in Atlanta and
immediately the price advanced 50
cents per ton.
* The slaughter of hogs in the West
has been lighter this season than for
several years and we see the price of
meat advancing almost dai'y.
A few monihs ago there was a
sudden large demand for lumber in
Cuthbert. The snpply was short
and the price of lumber advanced
quickly. Soon, however, the supply
was rapidly augmented and prices
declined.
In 1890 the South produced a
large cotton crop followed in 1891
by the largest ever produced, and
tae price of the South’s great staple
{"muchu bottow.” A really short
crop was produced in 1892 and not
~withstanding a large surplas had
been carried over from the two pre
ceding years, we have scen the price
of cotton advance nearly 50 per
cent. |
In almost every department of
manutacturers trusts have been or
ganized. The object ot these organi
zationd is t 2 hold prices up-=how?
By reducing the output.
A country merchant, whose cashl
capital is not more than one thous
and doliars and whose trade demands
only one hundred dollars’ worth ot a
given article, would certainiy ‘‘hit
the ceiling”” if he invested his entirel
capital in this one article.
These ave truths that no rcasou-‘
able man would atterapt to gainsay.
We have written them in an eflOrtl
to present a practical thought to
our farmer readers.
The world demapds about sevenl
million bales ot our cotton. A sup-{
ply of nine million bales must lower
the price below the cost of produc
tion. A supply of six million bales
must advance the price to a point
where a big profit acerues to the
producer, provided the six million
bales are not the result ot a nine
million eflort. Itis impossible for
the farmers to organize a& cotton
trust, but each individual farmer
can and should put himselfin the
place ¢t the country merchant and
not invest his all in one commodity.
If all yoar neighbors are cautting
down their cotton crops, it only in
creases your chances for better
prices if you cut yours down also.
Meeting in cluts or alliances and
“resolving” to plant less cotton isn’t
worth a baubee. Each individual
farmer must act for himse!f. Better
to have a surplus of corn at 40 cents
per bushel, than a surplus of cotton
at 6 cents per pound. Plant your
own crop on business principles, not
knowing nor caring whether your
neighbors are planting for six or ten
million bales of cotton. Guage your
own for a six million bale crop and
the.cost of producing it will be 50
per cent. less than if you plant for
‘the larger crop. Plant the surplus
land that would have been required
to grow the big cotton crop in some
thing for hogs to gather and con
sume—and be sure you have the
hogs to censume it.—Cuthbert Lib
eral.
ALL OF A KIND. :
It was @ Dutchman who said that
a pig had no marks oa his ears ex
cept a short tail.
It was a British magistrate who,
being told by a vagabond that he
was not macried, responded, “That’s
a good thing for your wife.”
It was a Portuguese mayor who
enumerated, among the marks ‘by‘
which the body of a drowned man
might be identified when found, “a
marked impediment in his specch.”
It was a Frenchman who, con
tentedly laying his head upon a
large stone star for a pillow, replied
to one who eaquired if it was not
rather nard, “Not at all, for I have
stuff edit with hay.”
It was an American lecturer who
solemuly said one evening, “Parents,
you may have children ; or, if not,
your daughters may have.”
* It was a German orator who,
warming with his subject, exclaim«
ed, “There is no man, woman, or
child in the house who has arrived at
the age of fifty years but what has
felt the " truth thundering through
their winds for centuries.”’
A GOOD ONE ON HAM.
While Mr. Ham, the “Georgia
Cracker,” was lecturing last week
an amusing incident occurred. Mr.
Ham is the friendliest man in the
state, and makes triends with every
one. He approached a stranger,
slapped him on the shoulder and
said, “Good morning, how are you?”’
The man did not recognize the great
humorist and replied: “Why I
believe that I can’t recall your
name.” Well,” said Ham, *‘just
call me the best part of a hog and
that will do.” The stranger.replied,
“Good morning, Mr. Chiterlings.”
Mr. Ham is now telling the joke.
But verily some people’s taste is
passing strange.
A SISTER,
No household is complete without
a sister.
She gives the finish to the tamily.
A sister’s love, a sister’s influs
ence, what can be more hallowed }
A sister’s watchful care—can
anything he so tender?
A sister's kindness—does the
world show anything purer?
Who is happy without u sister ?
A sister is a sort of guardian an-~
gel iu the home circle.
Her presence eondemns vice.
She is the quickener of good reso
gutions, the sunshine in the pathway
of home.
To every brother she ig Jight and
life.
Her heart is the treasure house of
confidence. v
In ner he finds & safe adviser, a
charitable, forgiving, tendzr, though
often undeserved friend.
In ber he finds a ready corpan
ion.
Her gsympathy is as open as day
ard swect as the fragrance of flows
ers. I
We pity the poor brother who has
no sister—no sister’s love. |
We feel sorry for the howe that‘
is not enlivened by a sister’s pres-!
ence. " ‘ . |
A sister’s office is a noble and
gentle one.
Her duty is to persuade to virtue,
to win some to wisdom’s weys;
gentle to lead where duty calls; to
guard the citadel ot home with, the
sleepless vigilance of virtue: to
cather graces and strew flowers
around the home altar.
To be a sister is to hold a sweet
place in the heart ot home.
It is to minister in a holy office.
THE ART OF FASCINATION.
The secret of fascination is one
which many a woman would sacri
fice a good deal to learn. To culti
vate 2 charming and attractive man
ner one must begin at home, and
surely a better school could'not be
devised, for the training is, in its
way, perfection. Here you are sure
to find each day little rubs which
must be soothing with skillful
touch; there is a coustant mind
friction going on even among the
most devoted members of the house
hold. Itis a painful fact, though
none the less true, that one’s family
acts as a constant counter-irritant.
Now, a steady effort to smooth over
the rough places, minister to wound
ed hearts, and with deft touches
erase unpleasant memories is called‘
{or, and the woman who obeys the
summons is pretty sure to find her
gelf tully able to cope in the most
agreeable fashion with the outside
world. Few women, however, real
ize that a fascination of manner is
not born but cultured. it begine to
bud in the nursery, develops under
skillful training ot painstaking iu
structors, and blossoms forth into
complete beauty iff the society of
wellsbred women.
With empty barns, provisions all
in the stores for a price, no money
to buy, the year will end in despair
to the poor southern pianter, and he
will be ready to tear down the gov
ernmwent for what he has done with
his own hands under his blind delu
gsion of cutton planting. We try to
gound the alarm in time to save him,
and ask now that he pause, cut oft
‘his cotton area, make his first object
in planting provisions.)r his family
and his dumb beast, make one~
fourth of his crop only in cctton
and for once try to exercise the dis
cretion that has so long been ex
pected.

God never has to look at a man’s
bank account to find out whether he
is fit tor Heaven.
