BY ANNA SIIKILDS. People in Maysville always shrugged their shoulders when Mark Lamson was mentioned, and usually the expressive gesture was fol|owe:’ by some depreca ting remark. “Comes of bad stock,” old Judge Len nox would say, in his pompous dictator ial manner. “All the Lamsons were worthless, and Mrs. Lamson was a Hodge, and everybody knows what they are.” The house iu which Mark was born, and where he scrambled up to maDhood, was a largo farm house, tumbling to pieces inside, with a roof always being patched against leaking, doors without iocks and with shaking hiuges, windows that rattled in every wind, ceilings that dropped plaster whenever a heavy foot shook the upper rooms and furniture iu the last stage of shabbiuess. His father and mother were slatternly iu dress, shiftless in household management, and the handsome, bright boy was over-in dulged and neglected as their own indo lence suggested. But Mark Lamson inherited none of the leading traits of his parents. Prob ably in some remote ancestor there was a mixture of energy, resolution and ability of which the Maysville gossips had never heard, and for which they certainly gave Mark no credit. It was in vain that the Principal of the Maysville High School declared that Mark had graduated with the best record he had ever given in the school. It was useless for the lad him self to keep his life free from blame, and earnestly endeavor to do his duty. Maysville could not forget that he wa3 a Lamson, and his mother was a Hodge —“bad stock 1” As he passed from boyhood to man hood, Mark began the unequal struggle against fate and circumstances, that was dictated only by his own energy. His father had been able to get bread from the farm by a lazy tillage that gave the bare necessities for the tabic; his mother had a very small income that gave the three clothing of the poorest description, and both were in open-mouthed wonder that Mark was not content, as they had been, to dawdle through life and “make out” with what they had. And Mark, struggling to attain better things, with only a vague, undisciplined longing for improvement, met no en couragement at home or abroad. He tried to obtain a situation, but employers were shy about giving work to a Lamson; he met but a cool reception at the Mays ville social gatherings, having no knowl edge of how to repair his own linen or keep his poor clothing even tidy. Boy like, he imagined anew suit and gay necktie were all-sufficient for a party, and did not heed the frayed culls and broken collars at which the Maysville belles turned up their noses. But, in spite of his father's lazy com ments,his mother’s fretful remonstrances, Mark Lamson, finding no employment outside, determined to see if the farm would not find him in work. “Oh, yes; do as you please,” his father said. “But there is no money for new-fangled fixings, and the land D about worn out. Plenty of it, to be sure, but ’tain’t worth shucks.” i 80, siDgle-handed,Mark undertook the work of bringing up the old farm. Early and late he toiled,repairing fences, weed ing, picking stones, rooting out dead stumps, preparing his land, without one hand stretched out to help him, one voice to wish him success. Thomas, the only man his father employed, gave a surly re fusal to aid, upon the ground that his regular routine of shiftless farming took all his time, and Mark patiently sub- mitted. He was twenty-one years old, when into bis dull,monotonous life came anew stimulus—a hope, bright as a vision and almost as baseless. He fell in love IHe did not walk iu cautiously, counting his steps and weighing his chances, but he fell in plump, suddenly, hopelessly. There had been a warm discussion at the Judge's about inviting Mark to the party that was to celebrate Essie’s eighteenth birthday and her final return from boarding-school. But the pet of the house had a will of her own and a Jively recollection of Mark’s handsome face and boyish gallantries, and insisted upon his being invited. Mark, carrying in his memory only a pretty little girl, found himself confronted by au uudeni able beauty; a face to win homage in far more pretentious circles than Maysville boasted, and a gentle grace of manner none of the girls of his acquaintance had ever extended to him. The touch of the soft little hand offered to greet him riveted the chains Essie's face had cast about Mark’s heart, aud made him her slave then and there. He had starved all his life for sympathy, and his first half-hour with Essie filled his longing heart with content. -She re membered all his boyish aspirations; she entered into all his hopes and ambitions. The party was the beginning of an inter course that stimulated anew every good resolution, gave anew vigor to every hope of Mark’s life. The village was essentially democratic, and the fact that Essie was the only child and heiress of the richest, most in fluential man in the place did not prevent her from visiting Mrs. Lamson upon terms of perfect equality. She was foud of the weak, amiabie woman, strongly as she censured, in her youthful strength, the easy-going indolence that made her home such a scene of confusion and dis comfort; and, in her gentle, pleasant way, she endeavoured tfc brighten that home for Mark by suggestions and offers of help that fell to the ground. It was like fighting a feather bed to try to rouso Mrs. Lamson to an active improvement, and rebuffed there, Essie could only help Stark by words of sympathy that were like wine of life to his love. An hour with Essie seat him back to his uphill work full of new hope, every euergy stimulated, every hope bright ened. He had not dared to set boioro him iu plain words the hope of one day winning her heart to his own, for there was all the humility of true passion in that young, ardent heart, but he real ized anew force, anew spur to am bition. Essie never sneered at him as the neighbors had become accustomed to doing; Essie never threw cold water over his plans for improving the land; Essie was never sarcastic over the clash ing of his povery aud his ambitions. As lie saw her more frequently, be ventured to tell her of wider, wilder hopes, of some day escaping from tho drudgery before him, and making his way to a city, when; his education might give hi mas tart In more e.oni/aainl occupation. “Father aad mother seem to need me, now,” he told Essie, one day; “they are old, and they have no other child. I think it is my plain duty to stay.” “I think it is,” was the quick reply; “your mother could scarcely bear a sepa ration.” “And while I am here, I must do the work that lies under my hand,” he said, “hard as it is I But Essie," aud his face brightened, “do you know that already I have made tbo farm pay double what it has ever done. Next spring I can hire help out of money I saved from the sale of last year’s crops 1” Essie, all eager interest, entered into discussion of the capabilities of such a lot for turnips, such a patch for wheat, the possibilities of a dairy, the bsst cul ture for fowls, as if she had never studied mu9ie or filled her head with French and German verbs. But the horror and wrath ot Judge Len nox, wheu, after two years of mild court ship, Marie took his fate in his hands and asked permission to marry Essie, eannot be described. “A Lamson!” he cried, when hav ing dismissed Mark he returned to the bosom of his family. “A Lamson for Essie’s husband! The fellow wants my money to spend after all his father and his grandfather have squandered.” ‘‘Do you really and truly think Mark is a spendthrift, papa?” Essie asked quietly. “Does he ever lounge about the stores or taverns, as Harry Carter and James Rayburn do! “I—Well, no, I never saw him,” was the reluctant admission. “Did you ever hear that he drank or gambled, or even smoked?” “N-o—l never did.” “Is he not regular at church?” “Ye-es.” “But, oh, Essie!” struck in Mrs, Len nox. “What shabby, half-washed shirts he wears, and his fingers all out of his gloves, and half the buttons of his coat gone!” “Poor Mark!” said Essie, gently. “He needs a wife.” “Well, ho need not look here for one,” growled the Judge. “I heard Mr. Thompson say, last week,” said Essie, quietly,“that there is not a better farm in Greene County than Lamson’s.” “Such a palace of a house!” the Judge sneered. “Mark is hoping to put anew house on the place, next year. He has had builders over from B ■ —, but they say the old house is beyond repair, and it would cost less to have anew one.” “And where is the money to come from?” “Where the improved farm came from,” said Essie; “from Mark’s indus try, perseverance and energy, in the faae of the hardest discouragements ever a young man had to fight.” “Eh!” said the Judge. “What? What?” “See what he has done,” said Essie, still in an even, quiet tone that carried conviction far more than an excited one. “Eight years ago, when he was but a boy, he put his shoulder to the wheel and took his playtime between a school hours to weed and clear away stones. HOMER, BANKS COUNTY. GA„ WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 27, 1892. Nobody helpd him. Ho was ridiouled, sneered at, discouraged ou all sides. He had the poorest farm in tho place, aud he has made it one of the best. He has put every spare dollar into books on agriculture, improved ma chines, good stock. He has now four men at work for him, good horses, good cattle, good poultry, aud he will have a good house. Papa, do you not think it will be a pity to have the new house in the care of Mrs. Lamson, to ruin as she has the old one? Out-doors tho manage ment is all left to "Mark, and see what he has done. But a mau cannot make a home comfortablo alone; he needs a wife.” “Well,” said the Judge, “let him have one, but not my child.” “Still ho loves me,” said Essie, “and I love him!” “Pshaw I” said the Judge, and marched out of the house. But prompt as he was, ho was just, and he loveil Essie. He had let preju dice influence him against Mark ail his life; now he took pains to find out how much of his dislike was well founded. Grudgingly enough was the verdict given in Mark’s favor. Maysville did not will ingly acknowledge it had been wrong in its estimate, and shouldered upou Mark all tho faults of his ancestors. But the facts were strong, and Judge Leunox found himself confronted by them. Slowly, for ho was not easily ooavinced, ho took respect into tho place of con tempt, and, after a month of pationt in vestigation, sent for Murk. The interview was a frank, manly one, tho old geutloman not beiug given to half hearted measures of auy kind. He admitted his former prejudices, and heartily commended tho young man who had struggled so uobly. “When your now house is finished,” hesaid, “I will let my Essie be your wile. A man who can make his way against wind and tido as you have done, deserves a happy home.” The Judge being a power la Maysville publio opinion veered round, as soon ns the engagement was announced. The now house being completed, Essie became housekeeper, Mrs. Laiasou gladly resigning her feeble reign. And under the new regime It was wonderful to see how even the old peoplo smartened up. They had no chronio objection to cleanliness, if someono else did the necessary work; and with Mark and Essie to govern and direct, the Lamson house hold so lost its old numo. that you could scarcely find to-day inf Maysville one voice to repeat tho old saying that "Mark Lamson camo of bad stoak.”— The Ledger A Very Queer Satellite. The satelllto nearest to tho planet Jupiter must boa singular place of resi dence, if thore bo any possibility of resi dents at all resembling human beings. In the first place, though it is bigger than our moon, tho substance of which it is composed is lees than half as light as cork, so that it is not a very solid place of residence. In the next place, though tho sun ap pears very dim from it as compared with what it appears from tho earth, it has a moon—namely, Jupiter itself whoso surface appears many hundreds of times larger than our moon. In the third place, tho recent observa tions made of this satellite by Mr. Bar nard, in tho great Lick Observatory, make it not improbable that this satel lite is reallv cut ii> two, and that there fore there may be two separata littlo worlds, probably not separated by any very great distance (for tho total diame ter of the two together, if thero bo two divisions of tho satelllto which was al ways suppoaod till qulto recently to bo single, is not above 2300 miles across), revolving together through space, some even of the dotails of ono of whioh worlds must be visible from tho othor. if thero be anything like telescopes on either half. If the satellite is not cut in two Mr. Barnard holds that thero must be a light belt round it, very like tho light belt on Jupiter itself, and that this light belt produces the impression of division un der certain circumstances of the orbit. We may hope that tho Lick Observatory will at length solve the problem. Per haps the residents of the two halves of the planet, if it be in halves, can really telegraph to each other. —London Spec tator. Sight Kind of Scissors. One needs many pairs of scissors, and true economy consisists in having a pair for each sort of work. The cutting of paper is very trying to sharpened steel, and a pair might be kept for that pur pose. Long slender shears are handy for general use: buttonhole scissors could find a place in every work basket; a pair of scissors for trimmin; lamps in the kitchen is necessary where there is no gas; grape scissors for the table are not altogether new; scissors to cut flowers in the country are a convenience. Few people carry pocket scissors of the folding sort. Those that do never part with them. Convenient for mani cure use, to cut a clipping from a papor at a moment’s notice, a string, etc., they answer almost every purpose of tho pocket knife and are much more conven ient to handle. Give a person accus tomed to their use a knife and the pocket scissors and he will part with the forraei first. Ho cutting blade should bo pul in the fire, as it will then lose its tempei which ia denoted by its turning blue. Such a knife or blade will never keej its edge.— Hardware. ALLIANCE TALKS. NEWS OF THE ORDER AND ITS MEMBERS Reform Pres* Comiucut and Ti ol General Interest. RETRENCHMENT NEEDED. In his speech before the house some days ago, ou the Holman-resolution pro viding for retrenchment in expenditures Mr. Livingston, president of the Georgia Stato Alliance, among other things Baid that from one end of the land to the other, there existed to-day more destitu ton and distress than had ever before been known iu the history of the country. It was time for congress to call a halt in the making of unnecessary and reckless appropriations. The cause of this dis tress was a large increase in taxation, which to-day was five times as much as it was in 1860. How could the produc ers of the country live under such a sys tem of taxation? While the rate of taxa tion had been increasing, the price of products had been decreasing. Cotton had gone down from 10 cents, 1860, to OJ cents, in the city of Au gusta, Ga. What had gone down iu proportion? The legislation of congress had increased taxation, and had decreased the means of paying it. Was it not time that the farmers and laborers should be beard on this floor? The resolution offered by the gentleman from Indiana, [Mr. Holman] not only contained sound democratic principle, but it was honest and statesman-like. He did not see how any gentleman, whether ho belonged to the first, second or third party, could do aught but sup port it. The people were looking with their eyes and listening with their ears for some sign of relief from this congress. Would they r ccivo it, or would they be sent word, as they had been sent during the last twenty-five ye us r . “work on and we will take care of the government.” The passage of this resolution would en courago the workingmen of the country, and he gave it his earnest support. * * * THE BUB-TIIEABUUY BOILED DOWN. Under the above headline the South ern Alliance Farmer says: This ono plank iu our platform has caused more eontenton among the old party hacks than all the rest of our demands. It has been the great drawback to our woul-be democratic friends. They view it with a perfect horror, a system which would rum the country at once, they say. Oh, yes, they will tall you, we can tako the rest of your platform, but the sub-treas ury, we can’t stand it. These same par ties and papers who prate against the sub-treasury, know simply nothing about it. They have been fighting the air and have not succeeded in making it very lurried with common sense. The sub-treasury system boiled down and shorn of detail is simply this: Tho government should issue direct to the people, upon good security, a sufficient amount of currency, at cost, to do the business of the country upon a cash busi.. This is all there is in this demand, and who can object to it? Would it benefit the merchaut, the lawyer aud the doc tor? Certainly, if the people who sup port these professions are benefited. There is no reasonable objections that any honest man can urge against the sub- treasury system. Everybody had rather do a cash than a time business, for in the end both the customer and the mer chant are ruined when the credit system is adhered to. Then let us all join hands for the sub-treasury system which means a sufficient volume of money direct from the government to the people at a low rate of interest. All men can stand on this plank except those interi sted in robbing the people through our present financial system. This is the main plank in our Ocala demands, and one that the country must have. Let us accept nothing as a compromise, but in sist on having the government to control our financial system instead of national banks and plutocrats. AN OFFICIAL COMMUNICATION. Special Notice to all Alliancemen: The Supreme Council is session unan imously passed the following resolution: “Resolved, That the brethren of the entire order be requested to set aside and observe the first meeting in January each year in every sub-alliance in the United States as National Alliance Day, and that npon that day they read and discuss the national demands, and the sub-alliance locturer and others deliver addresses in behalf of the national propaganda fund for the distribution of approved alliance literature, and that the sub-alliance sec retary take up a collection in behalf of the said propaganda fund, and forward same to the national secretary at Wash ington, D. C.” This resolution is far-reaching in its effect, and ja commended to the careful consideration of the entire order. The following questions and answers are here presented in order to give a better un derstanding of the Propaganda fund and the national alliance day ; What is the object of the national alii- ance day ? Ans .: It is to concentrate the thoughts and attention on one day in the begin ning of the year upon national alliance work and national issues, and to secure from every member of the order such contributions as he or she may be able and w illing to give toward assisting in the educational work of the order. How may national alliance day be made interesting, useful and instruc tive ? Ans: By each member giving such new facts as he mgy .possess qs to the his- tory of our objects of the order, singiug alliance songs, and by reading and dis cussing the demands. What ara the demands of the order? Asa: The following is a correct copy of the demands as amended at India napolis : “la. We demand tho abolation of national banks. “b. We demand that tho government shall establish sub-treasuries iff the sev eral states which shall issue money direct to the people at a low rate of tax, not to exceed two per cent per annum, on non perishable farm products, and also upou the real estate, with proper limitations upou the quantity of laud aud amount of money. “1. We demand that the amount of the circulating medium be speedily in creased to not less than S6J per capita. “2. We dmand that congress shall pass laws as will effectually prevent the dealing in futures of all agricultural aud mechanical productions, providing a stringent system of procedure in trials that will secure prompt conviction, and imposing such penalties ns shall secure the most perfect compliance with the law. “8. We condemn the silver bill re cently passed bv congress, and demand in lieu thereof the free and unlimited coinage of silver. “4. We demand tho passage of laws prohibiting alien ownership of land, and that congress tako prompt action to de vise some plan to obtain all lands now owned by foreign syndicates, and that all lands held by railroads and other cor porations in excess of such as is actually used and needed by them be reclaimed by the government, and held for actual settlers ouly. “6. Believiug in the doctrine of equal rights to all and special privileges to none, wo demand— “a. That our national legislation shall be so framed in the future as not to build up one industry at the expense of an other. “b. We further demand a removal of tho existing heavy tariff tax from tho necessities of life that the poor of our luud must have. “c. We further demand a just and equitable system of graduated tax on in comes. “and. We believe that tho money of the country should be kept as much as Eossible in the hands of the people, and ence we demand that all national and state revenues shall be limited to the necessary exponses of the government economically and honestly administered. “8. We demand tho most rigid, honest and just state and national governmental control and supervision of tho means of public communication and transporta tion, and if this control aud supervision does not remove tbs abuses now existing, wo demand the government ownership of such means of communication ana transportation. “7. We demand that the Congress of the United States submit an amendment to the constitution providing for the election of United States Senators by di rect vote of the people of each state.” What is the Propaganda fund ? Ans : It is a special fund composed of donations for the purpose of assisting the alliance educational work. It is in charge of the Propaganda fund com mittee, which is composed of the presi dent and secretary and the executive board of the order. The regulations governing it are that none can be paid out except by unanimous consent of the Propaganda fund committee. At regu lar intervals the secretary publishes in Tho National Economist all receipts and disbursements of this fund. All litera ture purchased with this fund must he at cost, and all services rendered by officers or others in handling or disbursing this fund or any of its literature, must be without pay. Every effort is to be made to every dollar do the most possible good. To what use is the Propaganda fund applied? Ans. To the purchase of pamphlets, tracts and leaflets explaining and defend ing alliance principles and to the distri bution of literature to reform and other papers for publication, and sometimes to paying the actual expenses of a lecturer on some important occasion when the lecturer cannot be made self-sustaining. There is a demand for information in un organized sections, and there is a great demand for reform literature in all sec tions. Does this Propaganda fund correspond to the campaign funds of the political parties? Ans. It does not in any sense of the word. Campaign funds, as used in poli tics, represents money paid by capitalists to dominate the administration after the party have succeeded, and it is distrib uted largely as boodle for corrupt pur poses. Its object is to perpetuate ma chaue domination. The Propaganda fund is more nearly represented by the manner in which the Irish fight for lib erty has been conducted. The expenses i have been met by donations from those devoted to the cause of liberty. Our battle will ’soon be raging, our cause is is an embodiment of right, justice and equity, we strive to emancipate produc tive labor from the money power to op press and thereby prevent the enslavement of posterity. Every person who assists in this cause is a hero. Let each give as the Lord has prospered him. How should remittance to the Propa ganda fund be sent? Ans. Address a letter to J. H. Turner, 239 North Capitol street, Washington, D. C., and tell him the amount of your donation, and who it is from, and inclose him the money either in postal note, money order, or registered letter. Then address another to C. W. Macune, chair man executive board, 241 North Capitol street, Washington, D. C., stating what amount you have sent Brother Turner, and give a short report of your meeting and what resolutions you have passed, and the name and number of your aty!- SINGLE COPY 3 CENTS, ance, and the name and postoffice ad dress of the president, secretary, lecturer aad chaplain.

Tho Samoans have preserved the language in all the simplicity which characterized it when they brought it with them from the Indian Archipelago. . For years it \vas ouly a spoken language, but tho missionaries have reduced it to writing. And tho Samoan language is ono of the most beautiful tongues in the world; it is even susceptible of finer shades of thought than cun be given in the English language. The Samoans corno from tho Aryan race, and tho women when young aro exceedingly beautiful, t hey are of a hardy race, the men being on an averago 5 feet 10 inches in height. Tho Samoaus and tho Tougnus, of tho Friendly Islands, are tho tallest races in the world. They have a light olive complexion and have keen faculties to acquire education.—[Chicago liprald. Scotch Haggis. Few of tho Americans who partook of that peculiar dish, tho Scotoh haggis, at, tho banquet given in Delmouico’s by thei St. Andrew’s Society, indulged in ardent praiso of it.
