GRIFFIN GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, MAROH 13 1888
Remedies for Writer's Cramp.
th Change all tlio conditions frequently,
the > height of the chair or of the table,
kind of paper, using sometimes the
smoother, sometimes the rougher sort.
Have every description of pen and pen¬
holder at hand, and change them fre¬
quently. Don’t try to write a handsome
hand, for that is something that a jier-
son who has writer’s cramp in perfection
cannot do. Be satisfied with legibility,
and this there need bo no difficulty
about. The trouble seems to be a
nervous one, and very little things will
affect it. The change from paper that is
ruled to paper that is not, and vice versa,
will often give relief, and even a change
from black ink to blue has been known
to be beneficial. Of course you must
have quill pens in your assortment, but
their exclusive use will not help you. A
friend who does a great deal of writing
has turned to the typewriter for relief,
but that is all that it affords. The fingers
have got into the cramp habit, and in
time the use of the typewriter wearies
and stiffens them. Nothing but an in¬
finite variety of appliances, constantly
changed, will afford the desired relief.—
“Causerie” in Boston Herald,
Dyeing with the Henna Plant.
The lady who is about to undergo the
dyeing process is stretched out at full
length on her back, and is not allowed
to stir The paste is put on the soles of
the feet, the toes included, about an inch
thick; the upper part of the feet is never
dyed. Soft leaves are then applied, as a
covering, and the whole is tightly
wrapped in linen.
The samp process is gone through with
the palm of the hand and the fingers. To
keep the application in place, the lady
must lie perfectly still all night, for no
other parts of the body must receive the
dye, and a spot on the back of the hand
or the finger joints would be a great dis¬
figurement.
At this time she is dreadfully teased by
swarms of musquitoes and flies, but she
dare not move to drive them away. In
the upper classes slaves watch all night
to keep away these pests with fans.
The same process must be repeated for
three nights to obtain the desired red
tint; but, once finished, it remains for a
month, and cannot be washed out.— “An
Arabian Pvi r.ccss. ’ ’

Advice to Mothers.
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup

Persian Trades Organizations.
There are no trades’ unions in Persia,
but there is something which suggests it
in the partial system of guilds and ap¬
prenticeships, although this is by no
means universal, not distinctly organized
and formulated. For example, the mer¬
chants or large traders of Teheran rep¬
resent a body that has a head called the
Malsk-i-Tojah, a man of wealth and
ability, who in cases of need represents
their cause before the shah.—Detroit

Roue, Ga., March 9. —The follow
Associated Press dispatch was
out from this city Thursday
und was read by twenty mil
people yesterday morning:
By the action of the Central Traf
association in Chicago yesterday,
the cheap rates southward, secured
by the inter state committee of tbe
of Immigration and Develop
from tbe southern agents at
Orleans, in February, are es
tablished over the greater portion of
the country. John T. Graves, of
Rome, chairman of the inter state
committee, has just received an of
ficial telegram from Commissioner
Daniels, of the Central Traffic as
sociatiou, aunounciog the concur
rence of the railroads represented iu
that association, in the rates estab
lished by the southern roads.
As a result, on March 13th and
27tb, and April 10th and 25th,
tickets will be on sale at all stations
east of the Mississippi river to all
points iu the south, at ouo and a half
cents per mile for the round trip.
Tickets will be good for thirty days,
with the privilege of tioppiug for
ten days at different places on tbe
southward. Thousands of
lettert are pouring in upon the inter
state committee from the north and
west and it is evident that a vast
tide of prospectors is coming south
ward. Every progressive city in
the south is taking Bteps to prepare
for tbeee visitors and everything
points to the greatest immigration
movement ever known in the south.

Old Grime*.
[Tli* Simon Pure Ballad *« Written bj A
G. Green. 1
Old Grime* U dead, that good old man,
We ue’er shall see him more;
(leased to -near a long black coat,
All buttoned down before.
His heart was open a* tbe day;
Hi* feelings all were true;
His hair it was inclined to gray,
He wore it in a queue.
Whene’er he heard the voice of pain
His breast with pity burned;
The large, round head upon his cane
From ivory was turned.
Kind words he ever had for ail:
He knew no base design;
His eyes were dark and rather small;
His nose was aquiline.
He lived at peace with all mankind.
In friendship he was true;
His coat had pocket holes behind;
His pantaloons were blue.
Unharm’d, the sin which earth pollutes.
He passed securely o’er,
And never wore a pair of boots
For thirty years or more.
But good old Grimes is now at rest,
Nor fears misfortune’s frown;
He wore a double-breasted ve»t,
The stripes ran up and down.
Ho modest merit sought to find.
And pay it its desert;
He had no malice in his mind,
No ruffles on his shirt.
Ilis neighbors he did not abuse;
Was sociable and gay;
He wore large buckles on his shoe*,
And changed them every day.
His knowledge, hid from pnbli^gaze,
II* did not briug to view,
Nor make a noise town-meeting day.
As many people do.
His worldly goods he never threw
Id trust to fortnne’s chances;
He lived (as all his brothers do)
In easy circumstances.
Thus, undisturbed by anxious cares.
His peaceful moments ran,
And everybody says he wa*
A fine old gentleman.
