THE LITTLE MOTHER,
She was only a little girl, living
in a small atiie room in a tali build
ing in the poverty-stricken portion
of a gr at city. She had no p irtic
ular ability. She was not even
good looking, but she was neat, in
dustrious and unselfish. She was
the child of the people. The poor
little girl never thought of herself,
or of her own comfort. She was a
beautiful flower growing in the
mire, a pearl of the purest watc-r in
a cheap setting. Her mother had
died early, worn out.by the cares
and struggles of a hard life. The
little daughter filled her place.
There were two email childrei
Aho.se care, together with that of
yie entire household, devolved on
"little Mary, or “the little mother,”
as she was called by the neighbors.
It was her title of honor, and well
did she iie.-. i v j it, for she filled a
mother’s place. And her fattier—

so to speak. When he married he
hoped for great things in the future,
and all that had vanished as the
transient brilliancy of a meteor
vanishes in nothingness. He hated
the rich, and he sought to drown
his troubles in drink.
Little Mary hail a hard time
meeting the daily expenses of the
household from the scanty portion
of her father’s weekly wages and
what she could earn with her nee
dle . It. was a task that might have
tested the courage, skill and endu
rance of an old person. When
her father came home at night, and
saw. the neat little room, and little
Mary’s tidy figure bending over her
needle work by the dim light of a
lamp, that still voice of conscience
troubled him. It told him that he
should lead ft better life, and do
more to brighten the daily life of
the child, for she was nothing but a
child in years and form.
And yet “the little mother” had
her bright moments, such as they
were. When she got paid for her
needle work, small as the sum was,
she almost lelt rich. She put astoe
as "much of the smali sum as possi
ble, not for herself, but for “the lit
tle ones,” as she called her younger
brothers. Moreover, she had a ca
nary bird and a few flowers, which
were a great source of comiort to
her.
And so -they lived on. It was
once more Saturday night. Her
fajtl.er would not be home early on
Saturday night, for that was the
might he went to the tavern and
spWnt most of his money on drink.
Ship learned out of the window
Thipre was not much to he seen ex
cept chimneys, attic windows and
t-«e roofs, hut above all weie the
marvelously glorious stars and con
stellations. The small children
were asleep in their trundle bed.
She was dreaming of the Enure,
hoping perhaps, that it would be
brighter and happier than tier paid
had been.
Suddenly she started. She heard
a door close, and a well known foot
! step wa^ on the stairs. Her father
", had come home earlier than usual
remaps he would give her all his
keek's wages, and talk kind and
jood to her as he did in times gone

are some friends of mine at the
tavern. They have got sort of a
_ bank, d tried my luck, but it was
bad luck,” and he laughed in a silly
sort of a way at his attempted wit.
The little mother shivered as she
said:
“You have lost all your wage*,
pa ?”
“Yes, and what of it? Everybody
loses at first, but I’ll win it all back,”
he said excitedly, for the magni
tude of the loss to the small family
began to dawn upon him.
Mary said nothing.
“What are you blubbering about?
Give me the money,” he said gruff
ly.
Peor little mother! If she gives
him the money the little ones will
have to starve.
“You have got money. You
got money for your work yester
day.”
She was a shade paler, hut she
stood resolutely before him, and
said:
“La, I’ve got no money for you
Tiie children can’t starve.”
Ac stamped his foot furiously.
He strode up and down the room
tike an infuriated animal. The de
mon of dark and the demon ol
gambling had possession of him.
They had also darkness to aid
them. Could he have seen those
large gray eyes, full of tears, and
the quivering mouth, “the littl
mother” would have routed the
twin demons; but, as it was, his
passions had full sway.
“Do you dare disobey me?” he
said hoarsely.
She threw her arms around him,
and between sobs exclaimed:
“O, papa, forgive me, if I disobey
feu. I do it for mamma’s sake.
Look at the dear little ones that
will have to go hungry!”
Almost any other time this ap
peal might have had effect. Blit he
saw the pile of glittering money;
he heard the jeers of his boon com
panions if he returned without it.
Uttering a curse, he seized her by
the arms, and iifting her up,dashed
her to the floor. There was a
heavy fall and a piercing shriek,
and then silence.
That was a sad scene that was
revealed by the moon’s rays in that
atticcroom. The suddenly sober
ed father was bending over the
death-like face of the unconscious
The Cost of Cotton.
The Griffin JYeics says that all
planters are interested in the
question of the cost of a pound of
upland cotton, yet comparatively
few have any accurate information
on the subject. Estimates are
made all the way from six to nine
cents per pound, and no doubt they
vary greatly in different sections
and with different planters in the
same section.
A very reasonable estimate or.
fair land is figured out as follows;

around the bedside, and calling on
little Mary to speak to them.
The “little mother” did not seem
lo suffer much from the shock, but
every day she became paler and
thinner. She never complained,
but site never smiled. She appeat-
d to work as hard «s ever, the
children were as neatly dressed a*
formerly, but her old-time cheer
fulness, which was a part ot her na
ture, was gone forever. Joy and
happiness had vanished from her
face. When not working, she
would keep her eyes fixed on one
pot, and did not seem to hear
« hen spoken to. Her flowers with
ered and her canary bird died.
She never cri°d but once, and that
was when she pressed the dead
bird to her colorless lips.
Her father, too, was changed*
He spent his evenings at ho'me,
and broke loose from his dissolute
companions. He gave up all his
bad habits. The “iiille mother”
spemed to sleep more than former
ly, and when the wretched man
came home from his work, ana
looked at her pinched featuies,
m and unmoved in slumber, he
would throw himself upon his bed
and sob like a child.
The summer was over and the
leav. s were falling from the trees,
The “littie mother” was on her
death bed. Another withered leaf
was falling from the tree of life. A
doctor had been called in. He
shook his head, and taking the
almost crazed parent to one side
said:
“There is no hope. Her spine
seems to have been injured. Did
she ever have a severe fall ?”
The lather said nothing. He
could say nothing. He felt as if a
cord was drawn around his throat.
He merely gasped for breath as the
doctor turned and left the room.
Throwing himself on his knees
beside the low bed, he said as gent
ly as his rough voice would allow:
“Little mother, do yon forgive
me?”
A pair of thin arms were thrown
around his neck, and with her old-
time smile, she said:
“Dear, good papa, I forgave you
long ago.”
“Little darling, do you know me?”
he asked, perceiving a queer look in
her eyes.
“Promise ine, papa, to—be—good
—to—the—little ones.”
A gasp, and he was alone with
his dead. The heroic little sou! had
tound rest at last. The “little
mother’s” cares and troubles were
over.

The above is a fair average esti

When fertilizers and supplies

see how it is that planters lose
money when they do not conduct
their plantations according to strict
busiuess principles and with econo
my. It is true that there are a few
planters that own their land who
make more than a fair rent off
their cotto i crop, and there are
very few renters that make any
money at all on cotton. There are
plenty of farmers in every part of
the South, however, who make
money from diversified farming.
How It Begins.
“Give me a halfpenny, and you
may pitch one of these rings, and if
it catches over a nail I’ll give you
threepence.” That seemed fair
enough; so the boy handed him a
half penny and took the ring. He
stepped back to the stake, tossed
the ring, and it caught on one of
me nails.
Will you take six rings to pitch
agai a, or threepence ?”
“Tareepeuce,” was the answer,
and the money was put in his band.
He stepped off, well satisfied with
what he had done, and proabably
not having an idea that he had done
wrong. A gentleman standing
near him watched him and now be-
:ore he had time to look about and
fej.iin his companions, laid his hand
,n his shoulder:—
•‘.My lad, this is your first lesson
in gambling.”
“Gambling, sir?”
“You staked your halfpenny and
won six halfpence, did you not?”
“Yes, I did.”
“You did not earn them, and they
were not given to you; you won
them just as gamblers win money.
You have taken the first step in the
path; that man has gone through
it, and you can see the end. Xo-v,
i advise you to go and give his
threepence hack, and ask him for
your halfpenny, and then stand
-quare with the uorld, an honest
boy.”
He had hung his head down, but
raised it very quickly, and his
bright open look, as he said “I’ll do
it,” will not soon be forgotton. He
ran back, and soon emerged from
the ring, looking happier than ever.
He touched his cap and bowed
pleasantly, as he ran away to join
his companions. This was an hon
est boy, and doubtless made an hon
orable man.—Morning Star.
uct-of the country; and with this
end in view, the representatives ot
the agricultural interests of Tenn
essee, in convention assembled,
call on our brother planters of all
the Southern States to protect
themselves by united action. Em
boldened by past success, the spec
ulator has already fixed standard
prices for the cotton of 18S0 and
1887. This he has done before the
seed has been put in the ground or
even planted." Cotton futures for
the months of October, November
and December, 1886,. and January,
1887, are to day quoted in New York
at from 8.90 to 8.75, according to the
months. This was not exceeding
8 5 . t " cents for middling^cotton in
Now York, orS's cents at the prin
cipal cotton shipping ports of the
South, inclu ling such cities as New
Orleans, Charleston, Savannah,
Augusta, Mobile, Galveston and
Memphis. Middling cotton at these
cities selling for" S* B cents means
not more than 7L cents to the
planter, who must pay the insurance
and regular commission charges,
which generally average ■** to 1
cent per pound.
Now in view of these conditions,
so ruinous to our interests, we ap
peal to the intelligence of the cot
ton grower and ask him can he
pay the expenses of farming and
make even a bare living by sellin
cotton at seven and a haif Gents per
pound ? The answer is already
given in the negative. The next
question following upon this is,
what is the remedy ? We answer,
Diversified crops. Plant one-third
less cotton and more grain and
grasses. Raise hogs and hominy.
Let cotton he,the surplife crop. In
stead of producing six and a half
million bales, make only four and
a half million bales. By this means
we may realize a better price for
our labor, and at the same time
live independently of speculating
sharks who profit by our losses. In
addition to this the Legislature of
each Southern State should be pe
titioned to make dealings for fu
ture delivery, unless the cotton is
actually on hand to sell and is act-
ally‘delivered to the contracting
purchaser, a felony, punishable by
fine and imprisonment of not less
than $1,000 and ten years in the
penitentiary. The time is now
propitious lor united action, and
we appeal to the press of the South
to aid us in our efforts by giving
every publicity to this protest and
appeal, which we Jfeel cannot but
result beneficially to the planter it
properly acted upon and lived up to
honestly.”

travel about the country with the
Gypsies. McVey, she says, shot
her in the head, kicked her, cat her
on the body with a hatchet, beat
her with a club, flogged tier with a
buggy whip and outraged her per

her foot, fastening her to a board
and swung her up to the wagon
bows. Marks of the girl’s wounds
are still plainly visible. McVey,
and his two companions decamped
as soon as they learned of the girl’s
escape." A large number of citizens
are hunting for the party and if
they are caught a lynching will
probably follow.
A good resolution made and kept
for a single week will do its maker
and keeper some good. The objec
tion to making good resolutions
and not keeping them, lies in the
fact that the first failure makes it
easy to fail again and again. A boy
ol our acquaintance became very
good on New Year’s day. He with
drew to his room and appeared af
ter an hour or two with a sneet of
tools cap paper held up before hiui.
At ttie top of the sheet- was written,
‘Good resolutions for 1886.” Then
came the following somewhat
amusing preamble and resolves:
i, Tommy Dean, knowing that I
am not as good as I ought to be
and thinking that I should try to
be better on account of my friends,
do agree to keep the lollowiug res
olutions for one year at the very
least:
I will get up when called once,
instead of after I have been called
four times.
1 will keep the back part of my
hair combed as slick as ike front.
1 will shovel snow out of the
paths and not grumble about it.
I will run on errands even if I
don’t get any nickles for it.
I will surprise my teacher at 1
school by studying hard most all of
tbe time,and not whisper half as;
much as I did last year.
I will brush my clothes every day
to save tna from scolding, for it is
wicked to scold.
I will never be late ai the table,
and so save pa from saying things
to hurt my feelings.
I will not chew gnm, I will not be
sassy, and I won’t qnarrel with any
of the boys.
Social customs do seem to move
ciacleward. Among the unrepeal
ed laws passed,, while New Jersey
was yet a British colony, is one that
reads as iollows:
That all women, of whatever age,
rank, profession or degree, wheth
er virgins, maids or widows, who
shall after this act impose upon, se

As this is the time when ail farm

it not be wise for them to take in
to consideration the advisability of

other cereals, and let cotton, for a
