A STRICT ACCOUNT SHOULD BE KEPT Each Day Shortens Our Exl&tence and None Should be Allowed to Pass Without Some Good Deed Done or Word Spoken. There lias been no women rulers of Russia since the death of Catherine II. A good merchant will count his mon ey and balance his cash at the close of every day. It is a good plan for everybody to review the day’s work and count up the good-of it and the bad of it. Give the Lord credit for all the blessings enjoyed, not forgetting health and food and the raiment, sun shine and shower, good neighbors and good schools and liberty of conscience. These are capital stock and do not vary much with the passing days. But in every one’s dally life and in our dally business there Is an ever changing multitude of little things— little pleasures and little pains and these should be footed up and bal anced. What good have I done, what pleasure have I received and' given to others today should he the ques tion every night. For the poet saith: "Count that day lost If the descending sun -Views from thy hand no worthy action i done." “Lost” Is a sad word—-one day lost | shortens life that much,' but ho\v many people lose almost etyery day.

How Is It possible for n very rich man to covet more when there are thousands near him who live and languish in misery and want, I cannot understand. It was a sweet lady who wrote the “Emigrant’s La ment,” and said: “I'm very -onely now, Mary, For the poor make no new friends. But oh, they love the better far The few our Father sends. ■ These millionaires deserve little credit for their gifts to colleges and li braries, while the poor are starving In the great cities and are penned up in garrets and hovels and earning a scanty living by working for the ruch. 1 was ruminating about this when I read that Mr. Holderby, that consecra ted minister ,n Atlanta, was getting up an ice fund for the poor. What a blessing that will be to the tired toilers who can only afford tho tepid water that comes from the city hydrants. How refreshing to the sick who lan guish on hard beds and have no cpm- forts that the rich enjoy. The poor wc have always with ns and most of them will suffer rather than beg. Mr. Holderby is always doing good and can balance his hooks every night and lie down" to pleasant dreams. Ed ucation Is a good thing and we are gratified at the recent movements of northern philanthropists, hut n move ment to lift up the poor and give them a chance would be a more blessed thing than to educate them in books. Peter Cooper and George Peabody have a higher seat in heaven than Rockefeller and Carnegie will ever reach. George Peabody built whole blocks of tenement houses in London for the poor. Tho rooms were all ven tilated and supplied with pure cold water and the windows looked out up on grassy lawns and flowers and shade trees. There were bath rooms attach ed to every tenement, and a few pretty chromos on the walls and the rent charged was only a pittance—enough to make repairs and pay the taxes. This was doing more for the poor than, education could do. A clean shirt and a comfortable home will lift a boy up quicker than books. It baa been said that a right hdngry man can’t get religion, and I reckon a hungry, child can’t study to do much good. Education Is not al- WAY? had In the schools. It Is the life work of every one. Education comes by contact, by absorption from others, by reading and thinking, and by expe rience and observation. Some of the greatest men in the United States nev er had a year’s schooling; and my own observation has been that not more than ten college boys in a hundred make good UEe of their education. They lived and died and made no sign. But for the sake of the ten we must give the ninety a chance. The northern gentlemen who met in Athens seem intensely in earnest and their speeches were in good tone and In good temper. Judge Bleckley’s speech was the short est and best of all. “We will receive it. not as a charity, but as a measure of justice,” and Mr. Baldwin said, “Yes, sir, that’s It, justice,” and I sup pose implied that they owed us a debt and were going to pay it. That came pretty near being an apology. Well, just let them shell out the money, and we will dispense with the apology. This morning I had a backset. The old mare got into my garden and tramped around, and wallowed in three places—ou my strawberry bed and on my squash bed and my onion bed. Digging wouldn’t pacify me. It didn’t let my choler down. I will set that down at one hundred on the debit side. But my daughter, who went to Charleston and had a two weeks’ vacation from the care of her children, returned safe and happy and refreshed. I set tl-at down at one hundred to balance off the old mare’s trespass on my garden. Another mar ried daughter, who has been sick for a month, has recovered hnd she cqn now take up her bed and walk. She came up to spend the day and brought her children. Put that down at two hundred. A dear :ister who lives at College Park Is coming to see us to morrow. Thaf news Is worth a credit of fifty. The- m:rti has brought goon, cheerful letters from two of the far away boys. That is worth fifty. A ood neighbor sent me some fine to- ato plants; that is ^vo^th twenty- five; and it is worth twenty-five to Took at my strawberry garden, and I look several times^ day. A visiting friend said It was fioMh twenty-five a day to se'q thezlQfig fttns go by with their double 'engimp. 7 can sit on my ve randa and count the cars, from forty to sixty on every train, and net strain my mind. Every" evening after school is out a dozen or more children gather !n my lawn Under the big oak trees and play tennis and hide and seek, and romp and swing, and it is worth twen ty-five to sc-e them so happy. There are three roses in bloom this morning, the first of the spring, and that is worth ten. Then again, I read rather Kelley’s memorial speech in Sa vannah, and It comforted me to flryl one man bold enough to tell the two ^lighest officials in the nation what they had done, and what he thought of them. I will put that speech and the pleasure of reading it af one-hun dred. From the window where I write l can see the workmen raising the beautiful Corinthians caps to the tops of the tall majestic marble columns of the- new -court house. The building grows in beauty every day and 1 am proud of it even though it will cost me a little moro tax money. I put down the dally eight of it at ten. Then there are my strawberry vines loaded with ripening fruit. I will put them down again. • One of our boys wrote me chat he was coming home to see us, but I must promise not to take him to see the strawberries more than seven times a day. Now, see how the account stands with all these credits end only one discount for the old marc. Verily the lines have fallen to us in pleasant places.
