A PENNY A DAY.
The value of “the littles” was never
more impressively shown than.in the re
sult of the "penny a day pledge” from
which the Salvation Army has drawn
so large a portion or its revenues. Tbe
members or that Army are in all coun
tries of the very poorer, people, but tens
of thousands of dollars flow anually into
the treaeniy from their habit of “laying
by in store” a single penny a day.
Others besides tbe Salvationists have
taken up the idea. Indeed it was
not a new idea with them From among
Christians everywhere there beve always
been those who knew the importance of

the regular systematic appropriation of
even small sums for the Master’s werk.
But lately it has become an integral part
of the system of some churches, and a
great many of the Christian Endeavor
Societies, Epworth Leagues, and King’s
Daughters Circles have adopted it, They
ciroulate cards tearing the “Penny
Pledge” printed upon them, with place
for name and date. The pledge runs thus:
Trusting in God for grace faithfully to
keep my word, I do hereby promise as a
Christian to give t?o less than one.penny
every day, each year of my life, for mis
sion work at home and abroad
Bucb a (fledge seems a simple one to
keep, but it is in fact uot so easy as it
looks. In the first place, it involves our
cause of missions *‘oo our minds” all the
time. Every day we must remember to
put aside the penny. And it is not con
venient every day to spare even so small
a sum as a penny. No, it is not an easy
thing to do, but it is a blessed thing to
bear even “on one’s mind,” or better still,
on one’s heart, the burden of obligation
to souls for whom Christ died; it is bles
sed to have tbe daily consciousness of be
ing co-workers with him. And the more
“abundant” the poverty out of which tbt
gift ia made, tbe more blessed the reward
8ince|tbe greater the sscriflce.the more clo
sely are wej associated with tbe in
finite sacrifice of our Lord.
If every Christian man, woman and
child were to give one penny a day to
Christian benevolence'lh.e churches could
far more than double their missionary ef
fort. But it to not possible that tbe reg-
ular contribotations would long stop at
penny a day. Tbe babiv of giving is o
that grows by wbat it feeds on. Tbe Ion
gerit is indulged tbe stronger it becomes,
until the giver finds many sacrifices and
savings possible which once be could not
have d retimed of, and learns that there to
a truer and more satisfying joy found in
money given for tbe cause of Christ than
in anything which money can buy. If
once the “penny a day” habit could be
fairly estimated in all our churches, there
would be almost no limit to the funds
available for all forms of Christian work.

THE JOLLY MANDARIN.
Before Clementina went down to Mill-
town for the summer she made up her
mind that she would bend all her ener
gies to wheedle Aunt Phoebe out of tbe
old blue ginger jar that Oncle Julius
had brought home from China, little
thinking that the old slant eyed, fat
sided mandarin would take such a jocu
lar interest in her joys and sorrows.
The old blue jar had perched for many
years on the corner of the high mantel
piece in the old fashioned country par
lor, and Aunt Phoebe knew that if she
gave it to Clementine she would have a

The Dry Weather Is Cutting the Crop

In talking with a prominent cotton
factor yesterday, it was learned that
the continued dry weather throughout
t&e sooth is cutting the orop short to a
great degree.
The condition of the crop is good;
the grades now coming to market are
excellent; the price*! are very good;and
there is plenty of money in Athens to
buy it.
The addition of two new agencies for
buying and shipping cotton will render
Athens one of tbe very best markets in
tbe state.
Tbe demand is good and the cotton
continues to roll in.

much cotton now, however, as usual,
because in view of the reports of the

As he talked with Clementine—a little
constraint being apparent on both sides
—he toyed with the lid of the jar, and
the slant eyed mandarin appeared to
wink at him three times v«ry knowingly.
Under some occult but imperative
pressure Randall removed the lid and
tonched with his finger the silken texture
of some mysterious contents.
Curiosity \ further constrained him,
and he pulled from the bosom of the
now jubilant mandarin a pale blue ar

ornament, aud following it, be extri

and structure.
Taming to Clementine for explana

found her speechless with wild eyed as

gesture, she seized the old bine jar and
hurried from the room.
Randall smiled the first real, soul felt,
refreshing smile that he had indulged in
for several months, and vowed' by the
pigtail of the old Blsut eyed that he
would stay Rioted to the spot until

jar, Randall waa leaning in the window
and idly sifting rose leaves from the old
climbing vine through the meshes of his
tennis racket He sympathized with her
lively admiration for the antique and
unique in china, and was glad that she
had attained her heart’s desire; bat a
more absorbing interest possessed his
manly breast . .
Clementine was going home in tbe
morning, and he had been trying in vain
for several days to get the feeble cour
age of his ardent convictions up to the
declarative point She was Buch a live
ly. fun loving girl, and love, you know,
is such intensely serious business. Sev
eral times Randall fancied he had found
her in a sober, and properly inceptive
frame of mind, when, with a trifling
jest, she would defeat his intention and
put the little god to flight
Now, however, when the slant eyed
mandarin on the blue jar winked at him
through the vines, Randall said to him
self enthusiastically:
“Well, old boy; that’s tbe very thing!
Thank yon for the bright idea! Are
they all as clever aa you are over in
China?”
That night in his room under the
jeaves, he constructed an eloqnent letter
to Clementine, and in the early morning
sneaked into the parlor and deported it
in the robust bosom of the old blue man
darin.
“If she finds it before she goes home it
is all right,” said the timorous, adoring
fellow, “and if she doesn’t find it until
afterward it will be all right too.”
But the mandarin felt a little fanny
that day; so when Clementine packed
her trank he inspired her to staff the
ginger jar foil of her silken hose, that
the precious article might take no risks
of breakage in itB voyage. So, when
Randall parted from her' at the station
she made no sign of knowing anything
In particular, and his hopeful heart de
cided that she would surely find the let
ter when she reached home, and he
would then hear from her.
Now Clementine was a girl who al
ways had a great many thingk on her
mind, and when ehe had unpacked the
treasured jar and placed it on a dainty
table in her pretty parlor—with a self
congratulatory thought that it waa so
respectable to have things that one’s
relative Bad brought from China—she
wholly forgot the curious load that the
mandarin had on his breast. She missed
her silken hose, of course, and pestered
Aunt Phoebe with messages about them.
In Mill town, os you may imagine.
Randall waited for the answer to his
letter. Awhile he waited patiently, then
impatiently awhile, and then dived into
his law books with that “composure of
settled distress” which lovers have known
in every age and clime. He did not
dream that the slant eyed mandarin
would be guilty of the ungentlemanly
trick of intercepting a lovo letter.
But the fan loving mandarin knew
what he was about. He was not with
out experience in these matters, aud he
wanted to pnnisb Clementine a trifle,
and bring her to the proper condition of
seriousness.
• And Clementine was feeling the situa
tion with all the sobriety that was desir
able. She had suspected all summer
that Randall had a tender feeling for her
which she felt qualified to reciprocate,
but she was a proud girl, and could not,
by a feather’s weight, influence the bal
ance of his attentions. Therefore, be
hind her smiles.she had been not a little
wounded that he had allowed her to
come home without having given ex
pression to his sentiments.
So she, too, uow took on a sober coun
tenance and bunished thought and regret
by joining several new clnbs and taking
membership in two or three more chari
table Organizations. * ^
Just before Christmas Randall one day
experienced in his breast a sort of im-
perative intimation—perhaps directfrom
the slant eyed mandarin, who knows?—
that he might hear of something to his
advantage if he should go down to the
city and call upon Clementine; so. after
Borne futile resistence to the message, he
betook himself thither.
He was graciously received by Clem-
entjne—that is, graciously enough for a
bility of this revelation lies between yon
and me and the ginger jar.—Emma

The marked benefit which people in run
down or weakened state ot health derive
from Hood’s Barsaparilla, conclusively proves
the claim that HU* medicine “makes the weak
strong.” It does not ret like a stimulant,
imparting fictitious strength from which there
must follow a reaction of greater weakness
than before, but in the most natural way
Hood's Barsaparilla overcome* that tired feel
ing, creates an appetite, purifies the blood,
and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve,
mental and digestive strength.
Fagged Out
“Last spring I was completely fagged out
My strength left me and I felt sick and mis
erable all the time, so that I could hardly
attend to my business. I took one bottle of
Hood's Sarsaparilla, and It cured me. There
is nothing like it” B. C. Beoolx, Editor
Enterprise, Belleville, Mich.
“1 derived very much benefit from Hood's
Sarsaparilla, which I took for general debility.
It bnilt me right up, and gave me an excel-
lent appetite.” Eo.JsNKXNS.Mt Savage, Md.
