A SHADOW IN THE VALLEY
There’s n shadow in the valley
Where the lilies Up asleep,
Where the laughing waters murmur,
And the sweet fligs droop and weep ;
There’s a shadow in the valley,
And a sigh fi >ats in the air,
L'ke the breath of angels resting
O’er the fair scene mirrored there.
Such a shadow in the valley
Brings o burden to my heart ;
(}nnnot you, too, understand i! ?
Have you never felt its smart?
1 have watched the lilies lying,
I have 9een the sweet flags vceep,
And have wished that I, whi n dying,
Might be laid with them to shop.
I have heard the breezes murmur
Low, soft things within this vale,
I hnv’ seen the blackbirds hover
O’er the lilies fair and pale;
1 linvo seen a ray of sunlight
Linger 'mong the leeds at play;
But the silent creeping shadow
Chased the memory sprite away.
L'ke the human heart, o’ershtdowrd
By a sorrow swi't and deep,
Lie the sweet flags and the lilies
In the shadowy vale asleep.
There’s a melancholy sweetness
In the perlnine-laden air,
And the ta'l reeds seem to whisper,
“You’ll find sorrow everywhere.”
An Illinois Romance.
It wns night.
And such a night!
The wind came in savage gusts from its
lurking places on the broad prairies that
stretched away to the westward, and howled
in mournful cudtu.ce the requiem of tlie dying
year.
Yes, the o>d year was dying. It would
soon be deader than n mackerel, and the
demise of that fish means business.
A young man with flashing eye and clear
eut bps, around whicii hovered the remnants
of a cold, cruel smile, nervously strode ucross
the floor of a richly furnished room in one
of Chicago's most elegant mansions. For
more than an hoar he paced the apartment,
npver once striking a trot. This showed
that he was a natural pacer. In his right
hand he held a tiny pieee of paper, which
fluttered in the breeze created by the clip
he was going. That piece of paper was
from Penelope McGuire, a proud aud
haughty beauty, the only daughter of a man
whose demesne was one of the most exten
sive on Aberdeen street.
Perhaps she has been giving the young
man the brtfze in which the Dole fluttered.
But, apparently, she hadn’t.
No, no. The missive told him of her un
dying love, and how his image was never
absent from her maiden fancy. That looked
as if you could bet on the girl; but who can
tell the workings of a woman’s heart?
This is what bothered the young man and
had set him to pacing. lie had wooed the
maid with all the ardent nature of his soul —
and innumerable boxes of candy.
Was this saec' nrine margin to be swept
away by a sudden decline of her love for
him ?
Not if he kn w it.
“ 'Twas but yesterday eVn," he said,
“That I saw her boarding a car as the clocks
were striking eight, and yet the false crea
ture thinks to explain away her action by
saying she was going to see a sick friend
She little knows that I saw her bangs, and
know full well that no woman wears them
unless she is going where she can be seen.
But she shall trifle with me no longer ; I
will scorn her proffered love”—and he seated
himself at an inlaid ebony writing desk.
The next day’s mail bore to Penelope the
following missive:
“Nobuddy can pla me for a sucker. Awa
fiils woman and practis your wiles on
anntber. George..”
“Do we need compulsory education ?” ask

At a performance of the cantata of

and if any duffer would like to cut it fat
then, I’ll give him a mighty lively

HAMPTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, MARCH 19, 1880.
Fooling the Indians.
It was a hundred years ago, in the old
pioneer days. Away up at the northern
end of the great lake 9 a bold hunter and
trapper made his camp He hunted for
sport in the summer, and trapped for fur in
the full and winter. He knew every river
and creek, every hill and vajley in the great
woods b'-ttor than you know the streets of
the town ; and lie had studied the cunning
wavs and bright tricks of the beaver, otter,
mink and marten until be knew ju-t where
and how to set his traps for them. He
bought a good many skins of the friendly
Indians who lived near; and early every
year he wonld take a big load to °el!, bring
ing back powder and lead, with tea, sugar
and other good things for liis table. The
hunter's life isn’t half so fine as the story
books make it. but old Thomas Judson—for
that was his name—enjoyed it better than
any other.
In the winter he had to wear snow shoes
in going through the woods to visit his traps,
and one year he brought back a pair of
skates, that he thought would be lion I v
vvlmn the ice was clear. And very handy he
found them at such tinies, for he could skate
a dozen miles as easy as he could walk two,
nnl (he pack on hi o back never seemed so
light as when he had steel shoes On, and
could skim along the glassy surface of the
lake or river.
One very cold, clear day, when the ice
was go id, he went to visit some mink traps
almost twenty miles north of his cabin.
He skated to near the spot, along the
shore of the lake, and then took off' his skates
and pot on his snow shoes to travel over the
deep snow a mile or two into the woods.
He knew tha* an Indian tribe from Cm
adu had come down to make war on those
who lived near him. but he never though l
they would trouble him. All at once his
good dog, Bruno, that Imd been running
ahead on a deer track, stopped, sniffed the
nir. bristled up angrily and began to growl,
and before Thomas could . carry his rifle to
his shoulder he was surrounded by a dozen
howling Indians, who eprsng from their
hiding places in the thicket brundishing
their tomahawks and yelfing hire madmen
The old man was brave, but he wasn’t a
fool, and instead of showing fight against
such odds he laid down his rifle and folded
his arms. He could talk but little Indian,
and they could speak even less English, but
bv signs and motions he made out to lit
them know that he wasn’t on the war-path,
but after fur. The Indians threatened no
harm when they found him peaceful, but
were much interested in his arms and dress,
for they hadn’t at that time seen many white
men. The snow shoes they understood all
about, for you know the Indians iuveuted
them, but the skates puzzled them.
A funny thought seemed to occur to the
huuter as lie saw their curiosity, for his gray
eye twinkled merrily.
“Ice moccasin ” he said, pn'ting a skate
on his foot, and then made with his bands
the gliding motion that the feet take in
skating.
"Ugh,” grunted the Iml tan chief, pointing
to the narrow blades of the skates and shak
ing his head. As plainly ss. he could do it
he made the hunter understand that he
wasn't so green as to believe that anybody
could stand up on those things. As they
were near the ice 'Piiomas proposed to fasten
them on a young bravo for trial. The In
dians welcomed the plan wit!) glee, for
though savages, they were great lovers of
sport. Selecting the bravest and swiftest
young fellow, the chief bade him stick oiit
his font, which he did rather reluctantly
The skates were -non strapped on, and the
young buck helped to his feet. The ice was
like glass, and as he started to move you
know what happened. His feet flew out
from under him. and down he came wkh a
crash. Such shouts of laughter as the re°t
set up 1 The young fellow was gritty and
scrambled up to try it again, but with the
same result.
The chief now signaled to the hunter to
show them bow the things worked.
Thomas fastened on the skates with great
care, picked up bis rifle and u«ed it a? a
cane, pretending to support bim-elf. He
moved awkwardly, fell down, got np and
stumbled oronnd, the Indians all the time
laughing and enjoying the sport. Gradually
Thomas stumbled a little further away,
whirling along and making believe it was
very bard work to keep his balance, until be
was near the point where the sinojth kike
ice stretched miles and miles away.
.Suddenly gathering himself up, he grasped
his rifle firmly, gave a war-whoop as wild
as the Indians’ own and dashed up the Irk®
like an ariow. skating as he had nevei °k ited
before. If be had disappeared in the air the
Indians couldn't have been more astonished
Of course *bey couldn't hope to catch him
over the glassy ice, and they stood gaping
after him, wondering more and more at the
magic “ice moccasin."
Nothing pleased old Thomas more in
after years than to tell how he “foolid the
redskins.”
The Happiness of Qumo.

w£en jii-t sixteen, she married the husband
of her choice, one of tlio=>e Co'ourgs, who
were the handsomest men of their lime
She hived so passionately that she poisoned
her own life and that .of her husband who
was a martyr to her idolatry. Her j-ulous
imagination saw infidelity everywhere and

odious to her. She drove away the lad cs

A Significant incident.
In one of the battles of the late war,
young Dr. I) then a volunteer captain
in the Union Army, led his men up to a
hand -to-hand fight wlih a Confederate regi
ment.
••I never," said the captain, “hod killoi
u man before. It wu° a mass of men I
foaght—nn idea, the whole 8 uth—not, the
individual.
“When I found myself, theref ire, slashing
away at n stout blue eyed fellow, who might
have been some woman’s lupband, and some
child's father, I confess my e mrage gave
way I actually shut my eyes as I hacked
desperately st him with my sword. His arm
fell helplessly, and he dropped from his
horse.
“An hour later, I saw him In the sur
geon's tent. The arm had been amputated
and In-'upon the floor. As the mm was
carried away I Row on one of the fingers a
ring curved out of cannel coal, ft looked to
m n like child’s work, and I drew it oft and
followed the wonnied soldier, determining to
restore it. But in the confusion ol the bat
tle fi-Id I lost sight of him ”
The sequel of this story is as follows : In
the summer of 1878. when the yellow fever
was raging in the South, Dr. D was
one of the Northern physicians who answer
ed the call for aid
lie went, to Memphis and labored for
weeks among the sick and dying. Among
the patients brought to the hospital was u
Colonel C , a man with but one arm.
Something familiar in the man’s lionost
fnee troubled our doctor. He gave his con
stant cure to him, both nursed and prescrib
ed lor him, and finally suw him recover. The
two men became warmly attached.
One evening when the Colonel was able
to leave his bed, they took supper together.
Dr. I) suddenly driw from his pocket a
black ring and laid it on the table.
“Why, this is mine!” exclaimed the Colo
nek “My boy Dick cut that for uie thir
teen years ugo "
“Then it was I who cut oil your arm,”
said D—.
The men arose and faced eueh ol Iter si
lently a moment, and then their hands met
in a hearty grasp. The strife was over, and
the true men were true brothers uguiu.
A Local Fit Dor’s Dreum.
Once upon a lime a local editor dreamed
that he was dead and in another world. He
approached a city before him and knocked
for admittance, but no ooe answered his
summons. The gate remained close.! against
him 'I hen he cried aloud for an entrance,
but the only response was scores ot
heads apjieuring above the wall on the oth
er side of the gate. At sight of him the
owners of the heads act up a dismal howl,
and one of them cried : “Way didn’t you
notice that big egg I gave you ?” At this
horrid and most unexpected interrogation
the poor local turned in the direction of the
voice to /earn its owner, when another
voice shrieked : “ Where’s that piece you
were going to write about my soda foun
tain?" aod doss upon this wus the awful
demand : “Why did you write a piece about
old Tomlinson’s hens, and oever "pe'k of my
new gate 7" Whatever answer he was going
to frame to this appeal wus cut short bv the
astonishing quarry : ‘Why did you spell
my name wrong in the programme ?” The
miserable man turned to flee, when be was
rooted to the ground by these terrible do
m.nds: "Why did you pat my marriage
among the deaths?” He was on the point
o? saying the foreman did it. wh n n a shrill
voice madly cried : “You spoilt the sale of
my horse by publishing that runaway !” and
another ; “If I catch you alone 111 lick you
for what you said about mo when I wus be
fore the Police Court.” Another : “Why
didn’t you 9IIOW up the school question when
I told you to?”. And this was followed by
the voice of a female hy-terically exclaim
ing : “This is the bru'e that botched my
poetry and made me ridiculous I” Where
upon hundreds of voices seri-amd : “Where
is my article? Give me back my article I"
And in the midst of tbo horrid din the poor
wretch awoke, perspiring at every pore and
creaming for help.
The following code of signals is for girls :
“A ring on the first finger denotes poverty
ami a willingness to get married ; on the
second finger, money and a disposition to
listen, though noth ng is promiseJ ; on the
third finger, ‘Already engaged, and so you
needn’t trouble yourself;’ on the little fin
ger, deliberating.”
That was an unfortunate text read by the
Bowling Green preacher just as his daughter
aod her escort entered the church, “My
daoghiei is previously tormented with a
devil.” The congregation smiled audibly, but
the ‘scort didn’t see it that way.
A Rural Hama nee.
Michael Kelly, or .Mike Kelly ns he was
uumlly called, was an eccentric old farmer
living lu one o f our suburban towns. Bora
ol poor parents, by industry and persever
ance he had become possessed of one of the
finest farms in that section* of which he was
Ju tlygiroml ; but no prowler was ho than of
lil< own physical strength and agility, that
had a-ais'ed him in accumulating his prop
erty and made him a most excellent boxer
and wrestler, and he hud a corresponding
contempt for men of inferior powers. One
spring, when help was unusually plenty, he
determined to have the farm run that year
by a strong team Ho, when am in present
ed hitn-'Clf and asked for work, ufier inquir
ing of the man ns to his habits, etc., he
would finish by asking him to light. In thid
way lie disposed of qu'te a number of appli
cants, and was liegimiing to despair of get
ling his “strong team," when one morning,
as he was standing in the barn door, a young
man came up the road, and, seeiug him* cull:
ed out :
“Good morning, sir.”
“(Join] morning,” gruffly.
“Do you want to hire a hand to work
your farm, sir 1”
“Perhaps so ; want to hire out 7”
“Yes, sir ; I am looking for a job."
“What eHii you do 7”
“All kinds of farm work, sir ; I was boro
on a far in.”
“Gun yon fight ?"
“ Whut, sir ?”
“Gan you fight, I say ; can you lick me 7”
“I don’t know, Hir, whether I can or not j
but I can try.”
And he did I'J- The first thing Kelly
knew he was on his bock on the floor, with
two teetli down his throat; the next, the
man was astride his stomach, with a fist in
each eye, and his nose was bleeding. Then
lie h't him np, and was just picking up his
bundle to start off, when he wus called back
and set to work, and he proved to lie as
trusty and industrious as he was brave. The
farmer’s daughter needed just such a mun
for a husband, and now he may be seen any
day superintending the work on the farm,
while father Kelly sits in the arm-chair ami
tells to his grand children the story of bis

The Fiminink Mouth. —A person who
has made the feminine mouth the subject of
much study volunteers his conclusions to 1
males with swccthenrls. They are as fol
lows . If her moutli is very small there is
not much mind, but overmuch shallow senti
ment. If she has a very large mouth she
will possess a good brain, hot the trouble fs
in kissing it. Imrgo months put a man to
nn artistic test ; he will be driven to bis
wits’ end whether to begin at one corner and
conclude on the other, or to make a heroic
dash at the middle and endeavor to reach
both corners But if you are a kissing artist
it can be covered nicely enough. If your
sweetltearl has a coar°oly-formed mouth sho
will be sensual and full of strong, coarse
points of character, and will raise a row in
the family. If she has a delicately-formed
mouth, with rounded lip° and of u velvety
color, she will have much sensibility and
perfection of character., but not astonish by
her brilliancy ot conception or execution.
It is a good mouth because It is kissabie and

The Language os tiix Hair. — Having
already given our readers the “language of

enlightenment the “language of the hiir
Straight, lank, stringy looking hair indicates
weakness and cowardice. Guriy hair denotes
a quick temper. Frizzy hair, set on one’s
head «s if each individual hair were ready
to fight its neighbor, denotes coarseness,
fflack hair indicates persistent resolution in
accomplishing an object, also a strung pre
disposition to avenge wrongs and insnlts—
real or fancied. Brown hair denotes fond
ness for life, a friendly disposition, ambition,
earnestness of purpose, capacity for business,
reliability in friendship, in proportion as the
hair is fine. Very fine hair indicates an
even disposition-, a readiness to forgive, with
a desire to add to the happiness of others.
Persons with very fine light brown or auburn
hair, inclined to curl or fria, are quick tens*
pered, and are given to resentment and
revenge. Light brown hair, inclined to
reilnres, with a freckled skin, is a certain
indication of deceit, treachery, and a dispo
sition to do something mean to a friend who
can no longer be used to advantage. We
give this as we find it, and it is about us
true as such things generally are.— W oerfn’s-
