Squaw Man's "Craft” on the Government.
Our idea of a lucky man is one who
can get a great big graft on the Gov¬

Pleasanton, who years ago was man

leaving a little son. Two months ago
Mr. Henry discovered that his wif3
was carried on the rolls of the Chero¬
kee tribe, and that his little son was
entitled to all the land and head money
secured by any other Cherokee. Last
week he received for the boy a check
for $.3,700 and a deed of 320 acres of
rich land. He is a coal miner and had

“The Law r>r Kindness” Is the Title t>f
the New York Herald's TetatH Competi¬
tive Sermon—Dr. TatmnKO Preaches
a Sermon to the Feminine Toilers.
Troverbs xxxi., 26.
There aro two superficial and somewhat
prevalent notions of kindness which over¬
look tho truth of a law of kindness and
hinder tho fulfilment of that law. Tho
first is that kindness is « happy accident
of temperament. When Charles Lamb riled
Henry Crabb Robinson Went to visit Mary
Lamb, and sho said to him! "Now, 1 call
this very kind of kind.” you, not good natured,
but verv, very Her distinction is
just, kindness is more than constitutional
good naturedness. It implies discipline
and culture.
The second notion associates kindness
with Christian etiquette and nnd deportment, desirable,
with something amiable
perhaps,but tlal. Consequently rather ornamental religious than esser- and
many and
devout people are unkind in words
actions without any feeling of sinfulness
on that account. But away the notion of
kindness which regards it as merely an
external grace of character or a useful
lubricant wherewith to reduce the frictions
of social intercourse and conceive it as an
essential element of all goodness, divine or
human, nnd ns comprehended under God’s
law of human life. Hnkindness, like any
other transgression of moral law, is wick¬
edness. Nor is it enough to try nnd not
be unkind, for unless ono tries to bo kind
he not only fails of duty, but will be un¬
able to guard himself from actual unkiud
noss.
Kindness has its root in kinship, Tt im¬
plies relationship and affinity. Men are
children of ,i common Father, and there
fftre brethren. Therein lies the signifi¬
cance of all that tho Scriptures teach con¬
cerning the essential, exceeding and ever¬
lasting loving kindness of God. There is
kinship between Him and men. created in
His image. Therein is grounded our kind¬ hu¬
man kinship and the law of brotherly of
ness for all men, than which no law
human life has higher authority or sacred
er sanctions.
As no one can be as good do as he should
and may be, so no ono can good as he
should and may without striving to fulfill
this law of the cultivation and manifesta¬
tion of kindness. Thero is nothing else so
powerful for good unless it be love, and
love ns St. Paul says, is kind. It disarms
prejudice and hatred, it converts distrust
into confidence, it overcomes all manner of
evil with good. Tt brings out ns nothing
else can tho latent and potential good
tilings in people. Men ha vecome to recog¬
nize and act upon this principle in their
treatment and training of animals. How
much more effective will be tho training of
children and the treatment of all human
beings which is based upon kindly sympa¬
thy! The safest assumption that can be
made in all such matters is that kindness
will meet all such response.
Kindness has insight and can detect signs
of promise in the unpromising, while under
its genial influences and delicate ministra¬
tions these signs become manifest and the
things they promise begin to he fulfilled.
What else gives so great encouragement to
the many who are struggling and with advers¬
ity or temptation, correcting changing
just those depressed feelings of loneliness
and neglect wherein the power of evil finds
its most favorablo conditions? Wordsworth
speaks of
That portion of a good man’s lifo—
His little, nameless, unremembered acts of
kindness and of love.
How suggestivo that is of what is possi¬
ble in this way of kindness, which works
With magic power to transmute apparent
trifles into priceless treasures—as to dusty St. Zita’s
cup of cold water given a and
weary pilgrim proved to be, as he drank it,
a cup of precious wine. Kind words often,
as Dante says of Beatrice’s words, “moro
smiled than spoken!” Kind much! actions, How cost¬
ing little, but bestowing easily
they might be multiplied and to tho enrichment immeasur¬
able cheer and comfort of
lifo! They make the gloomy smile, the
angry grow meek, the suffering to cease
from groaning; they light up hope, sweeten
bitter thoughts, console sorrow, strengthen
the faint and turn from sin; and they reach
and move those whom no other good influ¬
ences affect and conquer such as havo re¬
sisted ail other powers of grace.
Bitter and all too frequent are our re¬
grets and repentances, as we recall, per¬
haps too late for aught but regret and re¬
pentance, the unkind things said or done
by us, or tho kind things we might and
should havo said and done, but left unsaid
and undone. In our cups of recollection
overflowing witli divine tender mercies
nnd loving kindnesses there is no bitterer
ingredient than this. But seldom, if ever,
do we recall any error of ours on the part
of kindness or find any occasion for regret¬
ting merciful allowances, favorable inter¬
pretations or whatever a spirit of kindness
may have prompted. We have never stood
by a coffin or a grave unrequited and repented of any
utmost or even kindness shown
to the person at rest there.
The Gospel of Christ is precious because
It is a gospel of the “exceeding great kind¬
ness of God toward us” in Christ, and be¬
cause it is all the while aimiug to touch
and waken the chords of human sympathy
in our hearts; and,in bringing us under the
law and into the spirit of brotherly kind¬
ness, to make us know and rejoice together
in the loving kindness of our God, Of this
gospel we can all be ministers, and tho
best and most useful portion of our lives
will be our "little,nameless, unrememhered
acts of kindness and of love.”
Oh, then, since the time is short, “Be
swift to love, make haste to bo kind!”
Edwin Bond Pakkeu,
Pastor of tho Second Church in Hartford,

Dr. Talmage X’reaches Directly For the
Benefit of tlie Women*
Text: “Every wise woman buiideth her
house.”—Prov. xiv., 1.
Woman a mere adjunct to man, an ap¬
pendix to tho masculine volume, an appen¬
dage, a sort of afterthought, something
^yown aeresy entertained in to make things and implied even—that by i3 the
some
men. This is evident to them, because
Adam was first created, and then Eve.
They don’t read the whole story, and th® or they
would find that the porpoise hear
and the hawk were created before Adam,
so that this argument, drawn from priority
of creation, might prove that the sheep and
the dog were greater than man. No.
Woman was an independent creation, and
was intended, if she choose, to live alone,
to work alone, act alone, think alone, but
never fight her battles alone. The Bible
says it is not good for a woman to be alone;
and the simple fact is that many women
who are harnessed for life in the marriage
relation would he a thousand-fold better
off if they were alone.
A woman standing outside the marriage
relation is several hundred thousand times
better off than a woman badly married,
Many an attractive woman, of good sound
sense in other things, has married a man
to reform him. What was the result? Like
when a dove, noticing that a vulture was
rapacious and cruel, set about to reform it,
and said: “I have a mild disposition, and
I like peace, and was brought up ia the
quiet of a dove-cot, and I will bring the
vulture to the same liking by marrying
him,” so, one day, after the vulture de
clared he would give up his carnivorous
habits and cease longing for blood of flock
and herd, at an altar ot rock covered with
moss and lichen, the twain were married,
a baid-hcaded eagle officiating, the vulture
««y:ngi “With all my dominion of earth
and sip, I thee endow, and promise to
love and cherish dove till death fright do us part." the
But one day the In liar saw
vulture busy at a carcass, and cried:
“Stop that! Did you not promise and me filthy that
you would quit your carnivorous
habits if I married you?” “Yes,” said the
vulture, “but if you don’t like my way,
yon can leave,” and with ono angry stroke
of the beak, and another fierce and clutch, the
vulture left the dove eyeless wingless
and lifeless. had the hand of
Many a woman who has
a young inebriate offered, but declined it,
or who was asked to chain her life to a
man selfish, or of bad temper, and refused
the shackles, will Mess God throughout all
etornity that she escaped that earthly pan¬
demonium.
In addressing those women who have to
battle alone, I congratulate Rejoice you on your
happy escape. forever that you
will not have to navigate the faults of the
other sex, when you have faults enough of
your own. Think of the bereavements
you avoid, of the risks of uuassimilated
tornper which you will not have to run, of
the cares you will never have to carry,
and of the opportunity of outside useful¬
ness from which married lifo would have
partially debarred you, and that you aro
free to go and come as one who has the
responsibilities of a household can seldom
be. God has not given you a hard lot, as
compared with your sisters. When young
women shall make up their minds at the
start that masculino companionship is not
a necessity in order to happiness, and that
thero is a strong probability that they wifi
have to fight the battle of life alone, they
will be getting the timber ready for their
own fortune, and their saw and ax and
piano sharpened for Its construction,
since “livery wise woman buildeth her

As no boy ought to be up
out learning some business at which he
could earn a livelihood, so no girl ought to
be brought up without learning the science
of self-support. The difficulty is that many

pends on his own health and acumen for
the welfare of his household, but one day
he gets his feet wet, and in three days the

daughters aro turned out on a cold

How is this evil to be cured? Start clear
back in the homestead and teach your
daughters that life is an earnest thing, and
that thero is a possibility, if not a strong
probability, that they will have to light tho
battle of life alone. Let every father and
mother say to their daughters: “Now,what
would you do lor a livelihood if what I now
own were swept away by financial disaster,
or old age, or death should end my career?”
My advice to all girls and all unmarried
women, whether in affluent homes or in
homes whore most stringent economies are
grinding, is to learn to do some kind of
work that tho world must have while the
world stands.

seen two sad sights, the ®no a wojfian in
all the glory of her young life, stricken
by disease, anil in a week lifeless in a homo
of which she had been the pride. As her
hands were folded over tho still heart and
her eyes closed for the last slumler, and
she was taken out amid the lamentations
of kindred and friends, X thought that was
a sadness immeasurable. But I have seen
something compared with which that
scene was bright and songful. It was a
young woman who had been all lier days
amid wealthy surroundings, by the visit
of death and bankruptcy to the household
turned out on a cold world without one
lesson about how to get food or shelter,
andintothe awful whirlpool of city life,
where strong ships have gono down, and
for twenty years not one word lias been
heard from her. Vessels went out on tho
Atlantic Ocean looking for a shipwrecked
craft that was left alone and forsaken on
the sea a few weeks before, with the idea
of bringing it into port. But who shall
ever bring into the harbor of peace and
hope and heaven that lost womanly im¬
mortal, driven in what tempest, aflame in
what conflagration, sinking into what
abyss? O God, help! O Christ, rescue!
My sisters, give not your time to learning
fancy work which the world may dispense
With in hard times, but connect your skill
with the indispensablcs of life.
Let me say to all women who have al¬
ready entered upon the battle of life that
the time is coming when women shall not
only get as much salary and wages as men
get, but for certain styles of employment
women will have higher salary and more
wages, for tlie reason that for some styles
of work theyhavemore. adaptation. But
this jnot J, through

woman ‘IS'physically weaker than tnen,
and, therefore, ought t,o have more con¬
sideration shown her, but because through
her finer natural taste and more grace of
manner and quicker perception, and more
delicate touch, and more educated adroit
ness sho will, in certain callings, be to her
employer worth ten per than cent, the other more, or
twenty per cent, more sex.
She will not get it by asking for it, but by
earning it, and it shall bo hers by lawful
conquest.

JACKSON LIMBLESS COTTON.
Committee Report of tlie Interstate Cotton
Growers* Association on the Jackson
African Limbless Cotton, That 3Iet
In Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 14, 1897.
We, the undersigned Committee, appointed
by the Interstate Cotton Growers’ Association,
held in Atlanta, Ga., December 14tb, 1897, to
Investigate and report on tho Jackson Limbless
Cotton, beg leave to submit the following report:
After a thorough and careful examination and
investigation made of the cotton in the Held,
which we visited in person, nnd carefully looking
Into the matter, we unhesitatingly pronounce it
the best variety of cotton ever grown in tho
South. From what, the Committee learned from a
conversation with Mr. Jackson, it seems that
the cotton, with careful cultivation, will yield
three bales per aero easily, and the evidence
of such fact has presented itself to us after said
investigation. The cotton itself is absolutely
without limbs, the bolls maturing on little
prongs two or three Inches long, known as “fruit
spur,” with no other limbs; there being fromtwo
toftve bollson each spur. The stalks Jn the field,
examined by us, are from four to ten feet tall,
according to the fertility of the soil, as fruited
from the ground up. We foundoD a great many
stalks, bolls which contain five and six pods,
which we consider very unusual, tho size of the
bolls being very fine average; the lint nnd staple
being fine and silky, an average of one to one
and a half inches. It is the opinion of your Com¬
mittee that no cotton of this variety has ever
been grown In the South before, and is of supe¬
rior quality to anything we have ever examln seen
grown. The land upon which the cotton •
ed was grown, is ordinary red gravelly upland,
well manured. WM.P. Calhoun. Chairman,Ga.
