I love my friends too well to write them an anonymous letter that would bring a curse to them. Were it possible to bring a curse in this way, I would rather suffer and end the curse than possibly cause nine people whom I professed to love to be cursed. No sensible person would be willing to sign their name to such a letter; would he ashamed; then let us remember ‘There is nothing hidden that shall ■ not be made manifest,’ and we should not write a letter to which we are ashamed to sign our name."

He or she who will not say this prayer will be afflicted by some misfor tune. The person who will rewrite this prayer for nine others, begin ning the day this is received and write only one each day, will on the ninth day experience a great joy. Once at Jerusalem during Holy Fast it was heard said: “He who will write this prayer will be delivered from every calamity.” Please do not break this chain.

Money and Matrimony. j Our young people are coming more and more to value each other 1 by a standard of wealth, rather than true worth. Especially is this true of girls who are flippant and self-indulgent, or are ambiti- | ous for a career in society. Hop ing to escape the prosy duties in a ■ modest home, they are willing to i marry a man who can promise them fine clothes, fine apartments, i plenty of servants or a buarding ; house life. Young men, beware of ; such girls, for happiness is not found in a fictitious life and gilded | sensuality, pandering to pride and appetite, but in such homely vir tues as common sense, cheerful- 1 ness, contentment, frugality, a love of home and a desire to make it attractive. No one should marry without money enough for a com- ! fortable living and capacity to add j to it, but it is bad judgment and a reflection on the woman he loves for a young man to feel obliged to wait till he has a fortune before hej can marry. Modest desires, kept within a moderate income, will characterize a woman who prizes a j good husband mure than an in-1 come.—Cotton Journal. A Correction. The News was in error last week in stating that Ernest Payne was found guilty in City Court. The statement should have read that the verdict in his case was not guilty. The News takes pleasure in making this correction to place this young man in the proper atti tude before the public. Going Out. Sotni) (lay I'm going out beyond The walls of tiinu and sense; Beyond the strife, beyond the tears, Beyond the hopes,the griefs, die fours, Beyond all fulse pretense. 'Twill not he long, the winds are chill With autumn's frosty breath, The fading leaves are fulling fast, The Hummer's fruits and fiow’rs past— The year is ueuring death. But o'er my way the sun still shines As in the early spring, And dearer now the ligtit to mo Reflects, and softens memory And sweetest comforts bring. Beyond the night of pain and death Ere long I'm going out, Beyond file scenes of earthly woe, Caress of friend, or sneer of foe, Away from sin and doubt. Beyond ttie wnll the light will come, Revealing all the past, Wfiy storms Imve blown across my way And ort’ obscur'd the light of day And tom me witli their blast. Beyond their reach I then will know The cause of all iny pain, The conflicts and corroding strife Besetting all the way of life, The light will there make plain. Some day. the time will Hurely come, And few the days between The present and the day to be, When death shall come and call for me To cross the ohillv stream. Ttien while I live O let me be To those around, about, A helpful friend, who briugeth cheer To smoothe the wrinkl’d brow of care, For soon I’m going out. E. J. Stehi'K.ns. Newnan.Ga., Dec. I, 1900. „ A today spent in regretting a yesterday is a poor preparation for a tomorrow. Some men are so ins ; stent on j creeds that they forget Christ. In the past year or two there have been discussions made and articles published advocating the operation of large plantations by corporations organized for that purpose, We do not believe that such a system would be conducive either to the best interests ot the country or to the masses of our rural population. The organization of stock com panies for the purpose of central izing and controlling the produc tion of agricultural products is in line with centralized power and wealth in manufacturing and in dustrial enterprises which has al ready become one of the most no torious evils of modern times, and a distinct menace to out free insti tutions. It Is the small one, two and four- horse farmer to which the South must always lo <k for the basis of her agricultural prosperity in the future. The small farmer in France has made that country pre eminently prosperous in her agri culture. The „sniall tarm, owned ant! operated by the thrifty Anglo Saxon, carrying on his business under a proper and correct system of diversification, is what will in crease the value of land in the rural districts, make country life attractive to the coming genera tion of boys and girls, and thereby build up and maintain a bulwark of safety to our Democratic form of government and the people at large. Large plantations were built up and fostered prior to the Civrl War only because the South had at that time a limited white population and negro slavery in existence, The negro is now rapidly passing from the field of agriculture to en gage in industrial pursuits, like mining, railroading, timbering or the alluring opportunities present ed for concentration in the large towns and cities of the South and North. With the passing of the negro from the farm our soils must be tilled by the white popu lation of the South. If the rank and file of our white population, whose present and future destiny is agriculture, cannot own tht lands they work, their position as tenants and croppers will be large ly that of peasants which has be come so objectionable on the large landed estates in Europe —Cotton Journal.
