" There are no braver men than those who are not afraid to speak the ‘ truth. ] Douglas Superior court was post~ ponad until the third Monday in May oy nesgunt of the illness of Judge Janes, io e e 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. eel e e e God never has to look at a man’s bank account to find out whether he is fit tor Heaven.
