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¬ ernment. Charles Henry is a citizen of Pleasanton, who years ago was man ried to a quarter-blood Cherokee wo¬ man. She died about seven years ago, 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 been very poor.—Kansas City Journal. Rider, Face Each Other.

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, Conn. LEARN PRACTICAL THINGS. 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 house.” brought with¬ 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 a family goes sailing on the high tide of success, and the husband and father de¬ 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 pneumonia has closed his life, and world daughters aro turned out on a cold to earn bread, and there is nothlDg practi¬ cal that they can do. 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. 0. young women of America! as many of you will have to fight your own battles alone, do not wait until you meet with disaster and your father is dead, aid all the resources of your family have boeu scattered; but now, while in a good louse learn and environed by ail prosperities, work th»t the how to do some kind of world must have ns long ns the yorld stands. Turn your attention from tho em¬ broidery of fine slippers, of which tlvre is a surplus, and make a useful shoo.

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 arty .-.r »Uuntry, not because 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. TO CULTIVATE SUGAR BEETS. Syndicate With SH5,000,00Q Formed to Operate in California.

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. Richabd Cheatham. Committee, Miss.
