Sfy Jerald and gi®trtisti[. Newnan, Ga., Friday, Feb. 17, 1888. A GEM OF THE HEART. Joy met Sorrow in a place Where the branches interlace, ''' ' •Very secret, still, and sweet, r ^~' Safe from all profaning feet. “Why art here?" Joy. startled, cried; “Why art here?" Gray Sorrow sighed. ■“I came hero to weep." said Joy. “Tears are ever my employ," Murmured Sorrow. “Yet I see Tears as grateful were to thee. Come, young novice, and l>e taught How to ease thy heart o'er fraught." Joy sat down at Sorrow's feet. And was taught a lesson sweet. __ Fain would he make kind return; _ “Sorrow, art too old to learu? Nay? Then tarry yet awhile. Till I have taught thee how to smile.” Since that hour the two have l>een Bound as by mysterious kin; Since that hour they so exchange Tears and smiles, 'tis nothing strange If sometimes a puzzled heart. Scarcely can tell the twain apart. •Edith M. Thomas. Names for States. Probably the worst name for a country Germany** ikpnlthrml Store*. The German houses are entirely want- known to history is the United States of ! ing in the comfortable warmth we are America. It is ambiguous, may mean accustomed to. in America. Their sepul chral, white porcelain stoves, twelve feet or so high, dispense! almost as little heat as cheer. Solemnly erected in the cor- The Great Diamond Fraud. Among the many schemes to which ■the great banker, Ralston, who loved to be called the financial king of the Pacific coast, devoted no small share of the California bank, of which he w;is presi dent, was the exploiting of mines in the Pyramid range of mountains close to the border line which divides Arizona from New Mexico. This was in the early seventies, when speculation was rife, and the discovery of bonanzas an every day event. Among the employes of Ralston in the Pyramid mines was one George Arnold, a man of meager education, but bright and ambitious. In his shanty on the wild mountain side lie was ever dreaming of some plan that would bring Dame Fortune to his feet. While yet dreaming his dream of wealth there came to him the bright colored story of the great diamond discoveries at Cape Colony. Ilia brain at once devised a scheme which, in its way, equaled Law’s ►South sea bubble. The soil around the Pyramid district was rich in color and had character enough to inaugurate any mining scheme, however wild and impracticable. So with a comrade. Jim Haggerty, with whom he had long been associated, Arnold made long tours over the sur rounding country. After a few weeks of this kind of work he resigned his place in the mines, with the given intention of seeking the fairer tields of Mexico. He next turned up in San Francisco in the fall of 1871. He immediately found Ralston, and even astonished that bold operator by revealing that he had dis covered in Arizona rich diamond fields quite as extensive as those of Cape Colony. From the grip sack he had brought with him he poured forth a wondrous display of rough diamonds which had been washed from the yield ing soil of the new find. They were many and apparently of value. Ralston, ever ready for a venture, especially one which promised such daz zling results, entered at once into a pro posed exploration of the new diamond fields. He introduced Arnold to several leading capitalists, who at once became enthusiastic over the new Golconda. With the rapid action peculiar to Californians, the cliciue who had been let into the se cret immediately determined to visit the mines, and. if found to be all right, to purchase Arnold’s claim and title for the sum of $1,000,000. Arnold reluctantly accepted the offer. On their return to San Francisco the capitalists wished to form a company. In ten days it was accomplished. Ar nold was paid his $1,000,000 and made superintendent of the new mines. He at once make known the location of the diamond fields, and tiiev were visited by several stockholders in the company. Diamonds were found by each and all of them, and all went merry as a marriage bell until Arnold skipped for the east. It was then thought best to call in an ('Xpert, and Professor King, the well known geologist, was selected. He first discovered that the ground around the clump of trees on the bank of the Rio Prieto had been cleverly "salted” with refuse diamonds, such as may be cheaply bought in the marts of Amsterdam. It was also seen that the diamonds found by the capitalists had been “tried” at Amsterdam, and, as Professor King said, “while diamonds may exist in Arizona, it is hardly to be expected that nature will produce them partly cut or polished.” The members of the new diamond com pany were both thunderstruck and indig nant, and steps were quickly taken to bring Arnold to justice. He was at his home in his native Kentucky, and the machinery of the law was brought to bear upon him there. He was arrested, hut never taken out of the blue grass country for punishment. Iu some man ner he secured his release, and entered upon a life of wild enjoyment. His ex cesses were of short duration, and, after five years of feasting and rioting with ill- gotten wealth, he died.—Providence Press. A Steel Cable in China. A remarkable engineering feat has just been carried out in China in the face of unusual physical obstacles. This was the stretching of a steel cable of seven strands across the Luan river by Mr. A. do Linde, a Danish engineer, aided only by un skilled Chinese labor. The cable is strung from two points 4,(US feet apart. The height of one support is 447 feet above the present level of the river and the sec ond support 737 feet above it- The vertex over the water is seventy-eight feet. The Chinese cable is the longest but one in the world. The telegragh air cable across the Kistna has a span of 5.070 feet; two similar cables cross the Ganges, one 2.9u0 and the other 2.830 feet. A third fine of 1.135 feet crosses the Hooghly. and in the United States there is one over the Missouri of 2,000 feet.—Indian Engi neering-. Sweets from the Beet. By means of improved appliances the Germans are now able to extract 11.31 per cent, of beet sugar and 0.65 per cent, of molasses, or a total of 11.96 pounds per 100 pounds of beets. The cost of this sugar is only 2 per cents per pound. The , sugar is produced in enormous quantities, sufficient for the home supply and a large export trade.—Boston Budget. either a nation or a confederacy, and has two senses in the constitution. It is not so trivial as Nev.- Found Land, but it is longer and does not admit of shortening, as does the name of our neighbor island to' Newfoundland. New South Wales is almost as had. and all three are awkward beyond redemption. The test of the name of a country is in whether it ad mits of a derivative gentile noun and ad jective. Europe gives us European; Britain, British; Cyprus, Cypriote, and Siam, Siamese. These are good as names. But no man can bring himself to say that he is a New South Welsh man, or that he is a United States of American. And so, after the fashion in which the neighbors of Praise God Barebone’s brother with the wonderful name, “If Christ had not died thou hadst been damned,” said it for short, we are in the Habit of calling ourselves simply by the tail end of our proper designation, Americans, forgetful that every human being from Yukon to Patagonia has equal rights with us to the name. The people of New South W ales want to change their name, and The Spectator > well says they ought to do it, although for them to claim the name of Australia would never do. They might call their country Sydney, or Sydnevland, orCook- sylvania. or Southland, or Auralia, it makes little difference what so long as it is manageable. What not to call them selves might be learned from the names of some of our United States of American states. Some of our states allow no de rivative. A man from Virginia is a Vir ginian. from South Carolina a South Carolinian, but how does a man from Massachusetts pronounce his name? Only Yankee, which is no less absurd than for Enroughty to spell Darby. What is a man from Connecticut? Still a Yankee. What is a man from New Hampshire? Still a Yankee, although Senator Cas3 tried to better the term when he called John P. Hale a New Hampshire goose, and Hale retorted by calling Cass a Mich igander. Men from Maine can still be only Yankees or Down Easters, for they resent, we believe, being called Mainiacs. The later names adopted by our states are generally musical and usable, al though Ohioan is a disagreeable deriva tive of Ohio. The gentile word ought to be Ohiote, like Cypriote, but, perhaps, the people of that great state do not care to rhyme with coyote. W isconsin re fuses as strenuously as Michigan to ac cept a derivative, as the only one possi ble would be Wisconsinner. Of tho pres ent territories Idaho has a very sweet name, but what could its citizens call themselves? We suppose the people of Utah might be Utes, but if the territory were to take the proposed state name it would be hard to call them Deseretters. What we chiefly seek in a name is that it be easy to pronounce and be flexible. Its meaning is of little consequence. China is a good name, but it means nothing, and the people of China have no knowl edge of it.—New York Independent. ners of the- rooms, they present an aspect that (whenone is in a homesick mood) is remarkably dispiriting, and often they produce the same effect on one’s spirits , . . . as would the near neighborhood of the ( l )e - & monuments and gravestones they so strongly resemble. But the bed furnish ing is as oppressively warm as the heat of the white, ghostly stoves is insuf ficient. The great eider down quilts, that always form the outside coverings, are as thick and heavy as feather beds. Beside the sweltering heat that these produce, there cannot hut be the suggestion that very likely they may already have done duty for several generations. But those who have always lived in a country of vulgar progress probably do not appreci ate the Conditions of living in a land where aristocratic conservatism prevails. It is not at all likely that houses in Ger man v will be warmed by steam pipes or furnaces, or anything but their colossal while stoves, for several hundred years yet.—Hanover Cor. Boston Herald. Ice Sailing with Skates. Ice sailing is the latest amusement to take here, and it has become very popu lar. I do not mean with boats, but with skates. The skater crosses two sticks binds him and covers them with can vas, making the whole about six feet by one or two in extent. He places this sail against his back and runs his arms through the sticks so as to hold it. With a good wind he can go twenty miles an hour over smooth ice, and he can tack and beat against the wind, just as in sail ing a boat. There is a ten mile surface at Crevo Coeur lake that offers elegant sport. It is very exciting, but it requires some daring to start in, as the rapidity of the skater is apt to terrify the man who has never tried it. In skating with the wind one’s eyes water, but one can see quite well enough to avoid holes. There would be little chance of being saved if you did blow in. However, it is an easy thing to blow across a three foot hole in going at a high rate of speed. It is very exciting sport, and require very little practice to master its intricacies. It re quires comparatively smooth ico for good skating. If an obstruction is met with your fall is pretty hard.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Vico and Vlrtuo In th® City. It is said that New York is the wick- edst city in the country. It is the largest and vice thrives in crowded communities. Yet if it is the wickedest city it is also the best on the continent. If it contains thousands of the worst men and women in our land, it contains also thousands of the brightest and best of Christians. In point of morality it will compare favor ably with any city in the world. It is unhappily true that the devil’s work is dono there upon a largo scale; but so is the work of God upon an even greater scale. If the city contains the gaudiest, the most alluring and the vilest haunts of sin, it also boasts tho noblest and grandest institutions of religion, of charity and virtue. Being the great center of wealth and culture, New York is also the center of everything that is good and beautiful in life.—Joe How ard in St. Louis Republican. I r oreign Schools in Turkey® The Turkish government appears to be reviving its school laws with the aim of suppressing American and other foreign schools. The new law provides that no foreigner can open a school without a special firman given by the sultan him self ; and such documents he is slow to give. The law forbids any Ottoman subject from attending such a school fin- til he shall have taken a course of relig ious instructions. The schools now ex isting are to lx? suppressed unless they conform to these regulations within six months. As a large amount of capital is invested in educational institutions in Turkey, the American minister has pro tested against this law. and urges other embassies to join him.—Frank Leslie’s. Xaiucs for No .v States. Thete is a good deal in names, in spite of what somebody has said. The house committee on territories know it, and they wisely insist that if the northern half of Dakota conies into the Union it shall be not as “North Dakota.” but as “Pembina”; and that if “Washington” organizes it must drop its already much appropriated name and take ‘ 'Tacoma. “Yakima,” or “Wallula.” well known aboriginal designations. There is no reason why new states should bear names worn threadbare, or wliy one should be called “North" or “West” something or other. It argues a poverty of language. All new states ought to be compelled to bear melodious Indian names, as most of the old ones do.—Frank Leslie’s. Men Wearing Varied Colors Again. Gentlemen are slowly but surely drift ing back to those days when light and fantastic colors were necessary to a hand some and well ordered toilet. The ladies are no longer to monopolize the gay hues with which the rainbow is decorated. In the animal kingdom the gentleman mem ber of the family generally puts on the plumage or wealth of hair and fur. For [doof, behold the lion and the gold or sil ver pheasant. I say gentlemen are slowly but surely drifting back to those days of blue silk coats, yellow vests, green knee breeches, lace collars and wristlets, etc. Don’t you believe it? Examine any new tailor made suit and see if a pair of trousers are ever made up nowadays without a gay colored piece of V shaped silk inserted and joining the waistband in the back. A finical gentleman would not wear trousers that did not have this literally entering wedge. The crimson necktie is already tho proper caper. These colors are bound to widen and lengthen until they cover the form of creation’s lord.—Cincinnati Times-Star. Th® Bable* of Japan. The little baby is not offered its natural nourishment for three days. During this time the liquor of boiled rice is fed to it! And it is not tucked daintily np in soft white blankets in its clean little bed, but set up in a small tub and covered with coarse, dark comforts. The only relief it has during its infancy from this uncom fortable position is when it is put on its mother’s or some else’s back, inside their clothes, and taken out for an airing. It is claimed by the more enlightened now that this constant sitting position, or being crowded against some one, with shoulders thrown forward and chest pressed in, is one reason why almost all Japanese are so extremely narrow- chested. It is anything but pleasant to see a 2-year-old strapped on (he back of a 4-year-old, with head (shaven, of course,) thrown way over to one side, the unhappy little victim fast asleep with the hot sun streaming on it, and flies feasting on the dirt which is almost invariably part of a Japanese baby’s face.—Babyhood. What is this Disease that is Coming Among Us? Like a thief at sight it steals in upon us unawares. The patients have pains above the chest and sides, and some times in the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth has a bad taste, es- A sort of stick}' slime collects about the teeth. The appetite is-jsoer. There is a feel- I ing like heavy lead on the stomach; 1 sometimes a faiat, all gone sensation atj the pit of the stomach which food does j not satisfy.. The eyes are sunken, the hands and feet become cold and clam my. After a while a cough sets in, at j I first dry, but after a few months it is | attended w^h a greenish-colored ex-! pectoratioEi. The patient feels tired all the while*and sleep does not seem to. afford any rest. After a time he be-, corner nervous, irritable and gloomy,, j and lias evil forebodings. There is. a j giddiness, a sort of whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly, j The bowels become costive; the skin is ! dry and hot at times; the blood becomes | thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yellow; the urine is scanty and high colored, de- j positing a sediment after standing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste and sometimes with a sweetish taste; this j is frequently attended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes im paired, with spots before the eyes; there is feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms j are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our population has this disease in some of its varied forms. It has been found that physicians have mistaken the cause of this disease. Some have treated it for a liver com plaint, others for kidney disease, etc., etc., but none of these kinds of treat ment have been attended with success; for it is really constipation and dyspep- It is also found that Shaker Ex tract of Roots, or Mother Seigel’s Cu rative Syrup, when properly prepared will remove this disease in all its stages. Care must be taken, however, to secure the genuine article. IT WILE SELL BETTER THAN COTTON. Mr. John C. Hemptinstall, of C’hula- firmee, Cleburn county, Ala., writes; Xailfoab Scljebules.

Ga ^COUGHS,CROUP -AND The Aqueducts of Peru. Among the great water works of the world those of Peru were in some respects the most difficult achievements cf any. The Incas built aqueducts from the slopes of the Andes for a distance of over 100 miles to the capital, carrying tho water partly through tunnels cut in the rooks and partly on arcades on supporting pillars of mason work to span valleys, tho channels being composed of cut stone without cement. From these great aque ducts a number of branch conduits and furrows were laid laterally for irrigation purposes.—Scientific Journal. People of Alaska. Governor Swineford says in his annual report that there are 39,800 people in Alaska. Of these, 27.500 are uncivilized natives, 2,750 civilized natives, 300 Aleuts, 1.800 creoles and 5.000 whites. Tho year was regarded as an exception ally bad one in regard to temperature, but the enthusiastic governor, who was acclimated in the northern peninsula of Michigan, says that he has not changed his opinion as to the general salubrity and mildness of the climate. And this seems to be borne out by the statistics of meteor ology. for it cannot be said that a cli mate which ranges from 3 degs. below to 77 degs. above is harshly cold or scorch ing in its heats.—New York Mail and Express. Red Wood for Veneering. Veneer manufacturers having loeen put to much trouble and expense to secure from the natives of Persia or from French markets, even, fancy wood burls from which to carve out veneers for manu facturing purposes, have demonstrated by recent experiments that red wood stumps possess meritorious qualities for such use, and will undoubtedly be sub stituted for the more costly woods in the future. The demand for burl and curly red wood for finishing work has already reached large proportions in the west. The large butts of trees now being slain in California forests will be used to a great extent.—New York Sun. “Wy wife has been so much benefited j by Shaker Extract of Roots or Seigel’s ; Syrup that she says she would rather j be without food than without the med-! icine.
