JOHNNY'S CURE.
“Mamma! mamma!” cried John¬
nie, “do you know where my cap
is? I can’t find it anywhere, and
papa wants me to go to the post
office for him right away.”
Mamma was busy sewing but
she laid down her work to look
for the missing cap. As Johnnie
had said; it was nowhere to be
seen.
“Where did you put it when
you came from school not half an
hour ago?”
“On the hat rack; I know, and
now it isn’t anywhere. Oh, dear,
how provoking!”
After fifteen minutes’ diligent
search, shared by all the members
of the family, the cap was found
tucked pocket, away and Johnnie in its owner’s off to coat do
ran
liis father’s errand, while the
others returned to their interrupt¬
ed work and tried to make up for
lost time.
“Johnnie is growing more care¬
less every day,” said his mother.
“I don’t know what to do with
him. It isn’t always possible to
make him look for his own things,
and I’m afraid nothing else will
cure him.”
“Suppose we try sotting a
frightful example?” Suggested his
older sister.
“Perhaps that would do,” re¬
plied his mother, as the details of
a plan presented themselves.
The next afternoon, Johnnie
rushed in from school crying,
“Mamma, Mr. Harris says the ice
is strong enough to bear us, and
we are all going skating, but I’ve
just torn my coat. Can you please
mend it right away?”
“Yes, if I can find my thimble.
See if it is in the basket.”
“Why, I don’t see where it can
be,” said Mrs. Blake, feeling in
her pocket and not finding it.
“Look all around the room.”
Johnnie in too much haste to
think how very strange it was for
his orderly mother to mislay any¬
thing, hunted diligently, hut no
thimble came to light.
“Go ask Jennie for hers,” Jen¬
nie’s was also missing. “I think
you’ll have to stay at home; you
certainly cannot wear that coat as
it is.”
Sore as the disappointment was,
Johnnie was obliged to submit.
For a week the very spirit of dis¬
order seemed to ride the house.
Every article was left where it
was last used, until the once tidy
rooms looked fairly cheerless with
the accumulated litter. There
was one exception. While John¬
nie was constantly called upon
to look for Jennie’s gloves or
mamma’s scissors, or papa’s um¬
brella, his own cup was more fre¬
quently on the rack, his skates on
their hook, his slate and books
strapped together. Finally, after
an unusually trying experience,
he exclaimed one day, “I never
saw such a house as this is get¬
ting to be. I seem to be the only
one that puts things where they
belong.” The shout of laughter
that went up at this extraordina¬
ry statement somewhat abashed
the speaker, but lie sturdily main¬
tained his point; whereupon the
others promised if he would con¬
tinue to set such a good example
they would certainly follow it.
That week taught Johnnie a lesson
he never forgot.—Morning Star.
When Charlie Woleott of Grif¬
fin went to the Atlanta exposition
he had the misfortune to lose his
pocketbook, containing money,
a large number of receipts, a let¬
ter from his girl, a lock of hair
and a picture of himself when he
was 3 years old. He never ex¬
pected to hear from it again, and
was surprised Wednesday when
he received a letter from an un¬
known party in Chicago, Ill.,
who writes asking him to describe
the contents so that he may send
it to him.

It is rumored that the White
Republican League of Alabama
is going to petition congress to
disfranchise the colored people.
Maj. W. H. Hunter, the secretary
of the league, said to a reporter
who questioned him on the sub¬
ject the other day “Wait until
congress is organized and ready
for work, and then the country
will hear from us. Harrison
asked us last summer to keep
quiet until the fall elections were
over and not alarm the negroes.
We kept quiet and the elections
are over, so we will not keep still
much longer. I am not at liberty
to make public the character of
our new movement, but congress
will hear from us early in Decem¬
ber.”

THE FARMER S DAUGHTER.
The ideal farmer’s daughter ty¬
pifies all that is sweet, pure and
womanly. The American farm¬
er's daughter should he the very
highest type of the American wo¬
man—healthy, pure, intelligent
and sensible. The country needs
just such a woman, and we have
faith to believe that there are
thousands, yes, millions of them
to-day as true, as brave, as sen¬
sible and as full of patient devo¬
tion as were the women of years
ago, who wrought so well at the
foundation of our country’s pros¬
perity. All praise is duo to the
true farmer’s daughter. Would
that wo might say that all coun¬
try girls are worthy of the title.
Truth compels us to say that
there are country girls who are
living unhappy, fretful, discon¬
tented lives on the farm. Strange
that many of them cannot sec
that God has blessed thorn bey¬
ond measure by placing them
where they are. Strange they
cannot see the great chances for
doing good that are wasting
within their grasp. We are blind.
We connot see the best of life till
we view it from behind. The
discontented, fault-finding girls
will find many truths in this
issue. Many of them homely
truths, bluntly spoken and bar¬
bed with facts: hut they are
truths, Let our girls think
them over, And mothers and
fathers, too may learn a lesson of
life here. Kindness may kill.
Indulgence may ruin. It is the
character that is tempered by re¬
straint and self-denial that stands
firmly against the wrong.
One thing more. Let no young
woman feel that she loses one
atom of the respect due from true
manhood by perfecting herself in
womanly duties and practical
work. All honor to the true far¬
mer’s daughter. All a pity for
the discontented country girl.—
Rural Messenger.

Mr. Joseph E. Brown, Jr., son
of the senator, lias very \ sensible
views with respect to the south.
Speaking of the south the other
day to a New York newspaper re¬
porter, he said: “I have real a
great deal of nonsense about the
new south. I don't know where
that place is located. There is no
more new south than there is a
new east or a new west, The
south has adapted itself to the
new order of things j.ust as the
balance of country has. The old
south is good enough for every
true aud patriotic citizen of the
country.” He then invited the
reporter to come to Georgia,
where lie would show him more
iron in two counties than he could
find in the entire state of Pennsyl¬
vania, and enough coal to smelt ii.
Speaking of his politics, ho said:

My face, head and shoulders were
a mass of corruption, and finally
the disease began eating my skull
bones. My bones ached; my kid¬

die, but nevertheless, when I had

The Birmingham Age-Herald
reports the discovery by Mr. T. J.
Fuller of a valuable weed grow
iugwild in Jefferson county, Ala.,
or rather an important use for it.
He calls it “Alabama jute," and
he exhibited strips of the cover¬
ing or bark five feet in lei g'tii,
stronger by far than jute, and
finer. Mr. Fuller said that the
bark could be easily stripped
from the steam, and when passed
through an ordinary cane mill,
would come out almost clean,
lie thought that the weed, grow¬
ing wild, would yield a thousand
pounds of fibre per acre, aud this
could be largely increased by cul¬
tivation. He was confident that
he had discovered a substitute
better than jute for cotton bag¬
ging, and one •which would add a
new* product to every southern
farm and prove a great saving to
cotton planters. He declined to
state the botanical name of the
plant, or that by which it is com¬
monly known.
