‘I know that I am not rich, said
& young man in the prime ot his
powers, and his eyes blazed iudig~
nantly as he made the statement.
‘I know I am not rich. But what
of that ? Does wealth maike man ?
Not much. A man makes weulth.
I shall be rich.’
‘I know that, Earnest; and you
know that 1 care nrothing about
your proverty, Ilove you all the
nore because you are poor and
have your cwn way to makein the
world. Papa objects to my mar
rying you on that account. He
#ays that you are not in our cirele;
You are two young, aund that he
doesu’t like you anyway.’
The speaker was a young woman
“ just turned 20. She was small in
stature, but as symmetrically pro<
portioned as the finest produet of
an artist’s chisel. She had a love~
ly face and large eyes that were
irresizcible in the depth and sweets
ness of their expression. She spoke
in a soft, sweet voice and the tears
bedewed her peach-blow cheeks as
she looked upon the har dsome ress
olute man at kLer side, who had
fallen into a deep study and seems
ed not to hear what Celestine Or
man eaid. After a moment he
look toward her and eaid with deep
feeling: .
‘What is wealth compared to
thelove I bear to you, Celese
tine ?’
‘Ob, I kncw that is nothing, but
Papa doesn’t think so. He gauges
évery man by his bank account
and his social rank.”
“But wealth and social rank are
in the reach of every honest man
who will labor to obtain them. It is
the man.\
‘I know; but papa insists that I
should marry Spencer Drake, who |
has plenty ot money and social
position, and—' |
“No brains, no character !’ ex
claimed Eruest Vance. ‘A elegant
body.’
‘I know all that.’
‘Aud would you marry such a
thing, Celestine ?’
*Not while I am in posession of
my eenses and Ernest Vance is
in the land of the living.’
Ernest grasped the hands of the
young girl and leoked into ber
clear, iutellectual eyes, and felt
that they mirrored all his soul
craved for. So they did, Celess
tie Orman was a gem ofa woman.,
As rich as cream, with masters
ful will and strong intellect, which
had been thoroughly cultivated,
she was the idol of her home and
the admired aud courted of the
highest social circles of New
York,
‘What shatl T do 2 asked Celes
tice. ‘I do not wish to offend my
tather. 1 never witl marry Spen

tor you to come and clum me, I

Gid this when he had a knotty prob
lew to solve, The young woman
watched him with admiring eyes.
She adored him~his inteilect, his
fearless independence of character,
his royal self-reliance and assu
rance. After a while he said:
| “Celestine, I will tell you what
" you shall do—you shall wait for
{me. T shall go away, go west and
| make name and fortune, and then
come and claim you, I never cared
to live in New York. ‘here are
too many lawyers here anyway. A
man has to rise by slow and pains
t ful stages, The west is a new coun
try. A man of energy, push, and
Italent is recognized immediately,
and be has no drawbacks such as
lhe has here. I will go away.’
‘Oh, Ernest, that will be dread~ l
ful,” exclaimed Celestine, and the
tears glistened in her eyes,
‘lt is best to do so,” said Ernest.
‘I shall not see you or write to you
m six years from to-night, If I
succeed I will come and claim you {
six years from this hour. It [
fail—l will not return to you.! |
There was a silence as if in the
presence of death. And they sat
side by side for many minutes with.
out uttering a word. Then KErnest
Vance arose and so did Celestine.
He took her hands in his and said
in a voice that trembled :
Well ¥ |
‘lt is best as you say. I will

Five years had passed: away,
Celestine had not heard a word

She sat at one of the large win

Fitth avenue. It was ‘{Qgfifih an

‘One year mare,’ she sighed.
‘My dear,' said a voice at her

calm and deeisive. ?
‘I love you; [ hate Speucer |

The crash came. l\lfia a great

Mrs. Orman was progtrated by

highest pitch. She had not told her
father and mother about it, as he
i mivht not come,
' - When the night arrived the
! three members of the family sat in
| @ square room in which there was
Iscarcely any furniture. A dim
| light threw weird shadows on the
{ wall. Mrs. Orman sat in an arm
gchair with her eyes closed and
| huirds crossed on her lap, MNr.
Orman Jeaned his head upon a
‘writing desk, for his heart wis
heavy with muitiplied misfortunes

couraged. Celestine was intensely

terrible earvestness and expectans

- Our farers should remember
what a hard time it was this spring
to get both guano and chemicals
for their corn and cotton, and this
fall they will be very torcibly re
minded of how hard it will be to puy
for what they did get. State Come
missioner of Agriculture Hender
son says that Georgia farmers*‘are
using 197,000 tons of guano against |
130,000 for the bigest year heretos ‘
fore. 'This is an increase of sixtys
seveh thousand tons, or nearly
twenty per cent
Now what will be the result in
this enormous ircrease in the use
ot commercial fertilizer? Many of
our farmers failed to get all they{
wanted.” There can he but one re~|
sult the great demand will cause
the manufactorer to palm ~off sl
cheaper grade article on our farmers
than that heretofore sold. Wbere‘
there is such a great demand for
anything there is always great
temptation for swindlinz and gu-l
ano men are not infallible. :
It our farmers are not careful they
will neglect raising home manures,
buy a quantity of wortl.less guano,
make a poor erop and some of them
will have to do as they did several
years ago; have to buy cotton to
settle their guano notes. This is the
right time of year to think - about
and agitate this subject,
Now is a good time to haul in
litter to your Jots and prepare to
be comparatively independent of
the guano agent. “In time of
peace, pregare for war.”

The Hip-pocket.
We are glad to obsarve the unan
imity with which our state exchan—
ges have indorsed the announces
ment of Judge Van Epps of this
city in regard to the enforcement
of the law against carrying conceal
ed weapops,
In the state of Georgia in the
year 1888, there is absolntely no
reason why any man,young or old,
should go about with pistols or
dirks concealed on their persons.
It is a habit that is indulged in
by only three classes —the thought
less, the ignorant and the vicious.
It is a crime against society that
the law refuses to tolerate. It has
been tolerated heretofore by grand
juries and judges, but it is to be
hoped that the example Judge
Van Epps has set will be followed
by every Judge in the state.
~ The man or boy who carries a
} deadly weapon about with him
puts himselt in the way of commit
ting murder on the most frivolous
pretext, and he is a menace to so~
ciety, To deal ~with his offense
Jightly, is simply to confirm it in
others who follow his example.
Judge Van Epps says that he
will send those who are found cars
rying concealed weapons to the
chaingang, and the chaingang is
the place for them. No reputable
citizen goes about armed, and the
thoughtless, the ignorant and the
vicious should be taught that they
canuot violate the Taw with impu
