AUGUSTA, C3-A..:
Sumlay Morning, December 5,1875
Is There Room in Angel-Land ?
[These lines were written after hearing
the following touching incident related bv
a minister: A mother, who was preparing
some flour to bake into bread, left it fora
moment, when little Mary, with childish
curiosity to see what it was, took hold of
the dish, when it fell to the floor, spilling
the cintents. The mother struck the child
a severe blow, saying, with anger, that she
was always in the way! Two weeks after
little Mary sickened and died. On her
death-bed. while delirious, she asked her
mother if there would be room for her
among the angels. *T was always in your
way, mother; you had no room for little
Mary! And will Ibe in the angels’ way?
Will they have room for me?” The broken
hearted mother then felt no sacriflcotoo
great, could she have saved her child.]
Is there room among the angels
For the spirit of your child?
Will they lake your little Mary
In their loving arms so mild?
Will they ever love mq fondly,
As my story-books have said?
Will they find a home for Mary—
Mary numbered with the dead?
Tell me truly, darling mother,
Is there room for such as me?
Will I gain the home of spirits,
And the shining angels see?
I have sorely tried you, mother—
Been to > ou a constant cai e,
And you will not miss me, mother,
When L dwell among the fair;
For you have no room for Mary—
She was ever in your way,
And she fears the good will shun her;
Will they, darling mother, say ?
Tell me—tell me truly—mother,
Ere life’s closing hour doth come,
Do you think that they will keep me
In the shining augei'a horns?
I was not so wayward, mother,
Not so very—very bad.
But that tender love would nourish,
And make Mary’s heart so glad!
Oh! 1 yearned for pure affection,
In this world of bitter woe!
And 1 long for bliss immortal,
In the land where I must go.
Tell me once again, dear mother,
Ere you take the parting kiss,
Will the angels bid me welcome
To that land of perfect bliss?

THE cotton Is spread on this machine from the bale, and Is ma'G into a verr even
lap, at the rate of 300 to 400 pounds per hour. The laps are then finished on a
TWO-BEATER LAPPER,
WITH
JCITSOIM'jS PATENT EVENER
Attahed, and owing to receent improvements in this Evener, the laps when ready ror
the card, only varies one quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by this
system is only about one mill per pound on the cloth produced, and the picker house is
safer from lire than the card room.
j&s-There is also a great saving of room and power over the old system.
These Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langley Manufac
turing Company, and at the best mills at JLoweli, Lawrence, tail liiver, Manchester
Lewiston. Providence, Richmond, Baltimore, etc., etc.
The following are a few among many testimonials whicn w;e nave received:
AUGUSTA FACTORY, Augusta, Ga. July 5, 1875.
The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.: .
Gentlemen: We have been running your Compound Opener Lappers and finisher
Lappers, with Eveners, for more than one year, and frankly say that they have given
the most eminent satisfaction. We have no hesitancy in giving you our unqualified en
dorsement, and cordially recommend your Machines. . , ,

OFFICE LANGLEY *MANUFACTURING COMPANY. {
Langley, S. C., April 14, 1873. f
The Kitson Machine Company, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen . f have been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher Lappers, with Eveners, for more than two vears past at the cotton Mill of tne
Langley Manufacturing Company, and I have found it to work the most satisfactory of
any opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen, vv e have not weighed a pound
of cottou upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement is its securty against fire. .
Yours, Ac., M. F. FOSTER, Superintendent.

INCREDULITY.
HOW potent is this trait of the human
mind, The Bible refers to it and
says: “Were an angel to come down from
heaven, ye would not believe.’ 1 It is the
cause of much injury. We are disposed to
doubt the sincerity of our best friends, and
so far is it indulged, that it often leads to
misanthropy.
This is particularly applicable to the vir
tues of many truly valuable remedial
agents, however strong they may be en
dorsed.
Reader, if you have Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, Sick Headache, Torpid Liver,
Bilious Colid, Kidney Disease, Flatulence,
Constipation of the Bowels or General De
bility, and hesitate to use Dr. Tqtt's Liver
Pills, write to him and he will furnish you
with hundreds of certificates frGm the
most reliable men and women in the coun
try, who have boen cured by them, of whom
you can mnke direct inquiry. It will cost
you but a postage stamp. The proprietor
solicits the investigation of ail who need a
truly valuable medicine.
