RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
The Song of the Plough
Round the rough hill, lad,
Over ridge and rut,
Keen, lad, and clean, lad.
Let the bright share cut,
With a strong team, and st
To work soon and late,
And firm hands, and ready,
To keep the furrow straight.
Up with weed and thorn, lad;
Kill them from the root;
Foes, lad, are these, lad,
That cnoke the struggling shoot.
That were rare matter
For folk’s jeers and scorns
Should the sower scatter
His seed among thorns.
Break the hard crust, lad—
Sun and rain and dew
Must glow, lad, and flow, lad
Must shine and filter through.
Not a new shoot, lad.
That feels the hard earth
Will e’er strike a root, lad,
But die in its birth.
Hearts want the plough, lad;
Every fault’s a weed
To turn up and burn up
Ere we sow the seed;
Down to deep places
Score with God’s might.
Sow in prayer the graces.
And they shall thrive right.

Germany’s Fighting Strength.
Military service is compulsory upon all
Germans. The term of liability begins
at the age of twenty, and lasts for twelve
years, at the expiration of which the sol
dier passes into the Landsturm, and re
mains still available, in exceptionable
circumstances, up to the age of forty-two.
He spends only his first three years with
the colors. The next four ho spends
in the reserve; and for yet another five
years he belongs to the Laudwehr. This
svstem provides the empire with a peace
effective of about 445,000 men and offi
cers. The army is organised into army
corps, of which there are normally seven
teen. There is, in audition, the Corps of
the Guard, having its headquarters in
Berlin; and there are also twenty bat
talions of Rifles and several independent
cavalry divisions, which, in time of war,
; would be attached to the various “ar
mies,” each consisting of two or more
corps. Every army corps is divided into
two divisions, each of two infantry
brigades, each of two regiments, each of
three battalions ; and to every division
are attached a regiment of cavalry, four
mounted lotteries of artillery, one or two
i companies of engineers, a pontoon train,
and auimunition and provision columns
j The ordinary strength of an army corps is:
i infantry 25,456 men, with 1,172 horses;
cavalry, 1,594 men,with 1,760 horses; ar
tillery, 1,300 men, with 1,200 horses and
48 guns; engineers (if four companies),
860 men, with 70 horses; train, etc., say
600 men, with 600 horses; total, 29,970
men, with 4,808 horses ami 48 guns. The
total war strength of the army corps is
37,189 men, with 10,617 horses, 96 guns,
and 1,581 carriages. The seventeen mo
bilized army corps would therefore in
: elude 632,123 men, with 180,489 hotses,
1,632 guns, and 26,027 carriages. The va
irious unattached troops would bring the
effective men and officers up to 828,980,
I .ha iCO.’. 70 horse-, 2,846 guns, and 32,-
016 carriages. These figures represent
the total of the first line of the active artny
in war time. The reserve field troojps
would number in addition 436,766 me«,
with 95,850 horses, 1,002 guns and 18)-
695 carriages, making with the first line
‘ an active total of 1,265,476 Men, with
865,328 horses, 3,848, guns, yud 45,711 -
' carriages. Behind this mass ofmen stands
the garrison army, composeil if the depot
and garrison troops, and a poMon of the
Landsturm ctdlcd out to replace the
iwehr in the field. This, aceinling toof-
estimate, has u strength of 809,817

Her Answer.
On my right at a dinner sat Mollie,
On my left there was little May Belle,
Who is always so sparkling and jolly,
And who likes me, I fancy, quite well.
I The former somehow spoke of ages;
“Now, what would you take me to be?”
I asked. She replied: “Os life’s pages
I suppose you nave turned twenty-three.”
Miss Belle, on my left was abstracted,
And did not our words overhear,
Nor knew she the answer expected
As I whispered quite low m her ear.
“ And what would you take me for, Mary?”
And then the small maiden perverse,
From out of abstraction, quite wary,
Responded: “For better or worse.”
Samuel William Cooper, in Life.
Ladies of Sumatra.
The wealth of a Lampong lady is esti
mated by the number and weight of her
ornaments; these, however, are only fully
displayed on feast days and other high
occasions; such is etiquette among ‘ ‘the
upper ten” in the southeastern part of Su
matra. Native goldsmiths make these
ornaments, and the purchaser gives in ex
change weight for weight, in silver or
gold, as the case may be. Young girls
and children are heavily encumbered with
them; indeed, every young miss is ar
rayed in sinkels or bracelets, of many
shapes, of silver; the greater the wealth
and higher the position of the parent, the
larger the number of glittering bandsand
tinkling ornaments of every sort; rows
upon rows of bracelets on her arms, and
large button-like rings in her cars, and all
these ornaments are worn until she mar
ries.
Chinese Maids in Silken Trousers.
One oriental damsel who was airing
herself and her finery simultaneously yes
terday afternoon on Dupont street wore a
pale-blue silk coat with huge flannel-like
sleeves trimmed with black and pale yel
low silk braid. Her trousers were of
black silk, also bordered with pale yel
low ; her boat-like sabots were embroid
ered with blue silk, and the deep white
soles provide an area about three square
inches for the maid to stand erect upon.
Another celestial maiden was similarly
dressed, except that that garment which,
among Christians, is peculiar to males,
was a gorgeous orange silk. A third girl
wore an azure-blue skirt, a crimson coat,
and bright green trousers. Still another
wore a pale violet cloak over a dark-blue
blouse, her trousers also being green.
A very brilliant costume was a crimson
silk coat with a broad band of green and
red embroidery running all around the
skirts, neck and sleeves; the trousera were
bright blue and the shoes
broidered in pink and gold. A !
cloak, violet trousers with f
mings, pcarlJrvwrm head-dress,
ly worked silver bangles on wristsanu J
feet formed the principal features of the ,
costume of a small Mongol maiden, who
held in her hand the diminutive cue of
her small brother who trotted before her.
The boy was hardly less attractively
dressed, and his pale pink silk round hat
was decorated with a bright red silk knob
and huge tassel of the same material and
color.— San Francisco Chronicle.
Fashion Notes.
The tailor-made costume continues to
be the correct style for street dress.
Pointed finger-nails and pointed bangs
represent fashions that are going out of I
vogue.
French jackets in varions styles are seen
as a part of many Spring toilets. A favor
ite shape.
Among the favorite colors for dressy
toilets are golden brown, pale prim
rose yellow, copper color and Persian
lilac.
Outside jackets for Spring wear are i
longer than those worn last fall, and a
hood of the material of the garment, '
lined with striped satin, is added.
Bonnets of black lace and black beaded I
Spanish net over foundations of primrose, 1
lavendar, pink, sea green or cherry satin,
are worn by fashionable ladies at the
present time.
The newest plain English jackets arc [
cut considerably longer than last spring,
and are perfect fitting at the back and !
under the arms, with loose fronts fitted j
by a single dart.
Camel’s hair, albatross, serge and nuu’s j
cloth are among the white wool goods I
intended for spring and summer wear. ;
Heavy watered ribbon, an inch and a
quarter wide, will be used as a garniture |
upon these dresses, being placed in rows
upon the overskirt, both front and back.
Smooth taffetas and beiges are shown
! among the new wool stuffs. These are
i always popular, on account of their light
weight, and may •«* had plain or barred
in lines of contrasting color, or crossed i
with knotted threads of the same shade,
or striped with double or twisted threads,
giving a rough surface.
Foremost among the new skirt dra- |
peries are the bell skirts and the inverted
nell skirts, two directly opposing styles
One shows the skirt draped at the back

Plenty of Gold.
Jbsiah Miller, a Quaker merchant and
shipowner, was one of the rich men of
New York in his day, lie and Broker
Leavitt were two old fellows always try
ing to get ahead of each other, and al
ways on the watch for opportunities to
cross swords. Hearing one day that
th ere was sonlethiug of a run on Leavitt’s
Exchange Bank, Miller thought it would
be a good time to draw a big check and
bother Leavitt. Walking into the bank,
he coolly wrote a check for all the money
he had on deposit, amounting to several
hundred thousand dollars. The cashier
was dumbfounded, but took the check
Leavitt and asked what he should do
about it.
“Pay it, of course,” said the Presi
dent.
‘jWhat with? It will take all our
money.”
“Have those kegs of small coins
rolled up from the vault,” said Mr. Lea
vitt.
The kegs were rolled up, each with
the amount it contained marked on the
head. Miller asked to have the heads
knocked out so that he could ’see what
was inside, and it was done. Walking
from keg to keg, he took a handful of
coin out of each without counting the
pieces and dropped the money into the
capacious pockets of his long coat. Then
he said: “Well, I guess that’s all I
want to-day. I’ll deposit the rest,” and
walked out. How long it took the clerks
to count what remained in the kegs, Mr.
Leavitt never told.
Big and Little Butchers.
Amour & Co., the packers, recently
sent a carload of dressed beef to Akron,
Ohio. For some reason, either because
the boycott on Armour was enforced by
the local labor organizations or through
the hostility on the part of local butchers
very little of it could be sold and the
balance was returned here.
The Armours at once decided to strike,
back and authorized their Cleveland
agent to open five or six retail meat
shops in Akron and to sell their goods
at lower rates than those of the resident
dealers.
Convers, their representative, said:
“We try to do a wholesale trade and
generally succeed, but if anv retailers
think they can freeze us out of a town
they are mistaken. We will sell meal
one way or another’, and w T e will make
it very warm for the Akron butchers.”

A Lira Made Miserable
By dyspepsia Is scarcely worth the living. A
capricious appetite, heartburn, puzzling ner
vous symptoms, iarreased action of the heart
after eating, sinking in the abdomen betv ecn
meals, and flatulence after, are among the suc
cessive indicia ot th s harrassing complaint.
Two things only are needful for its rem »val.
Are.-ortto Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, and
persistence in its me. These remedial meas
uioi being adopied, a cure is certain. Taken
immediately before or after .neals, this g eat
stomach c promotes secretion of tl:e gastric
juice, the natural solvent of the food. The ner
vous anti bilious symptoms consequent upon
chronic indi rest ion disappear,as the complaint
gradually yields to tho corrective and invigo
rating influence of the Bitters. Appetite re
turns, sleep becomes more refreshing, anef as
a sequence, the Cody is efficiently nourished,
muscular power increases, and the mind grows
sanguine. Use the Bitters for chills and fever,
and rheumatism. *
The young lawyer ought to do a fee-nomi
nal business.
In General Debility, iEmaclatlon, Con
sumption, and Wasting in Children,
Soott’s Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil with
Hypophosphites, is a most valuable food and
medicine. It creates an appetite for food,
strengthens the nervous system and builds up
i the body. Please read: “I tried Stott’s Emul
sion on a young man whom Physicians at
times gave up hope. Since he began using the
Emulsion his Cough has ceased, gair ed flesh
and strength, and from all appearances his life
s will be prolongod many years."—John Sui.li

From the Artist who Took G. G. Hoffman’s
Photograph.
Hickory, N. C.
I send you to-day half dozen photographs of G.
G. Hoffman, of Conover, N. C., and I must say that
your medicine has done wonders for Mr. Hoffman.
It seems like raistag the dead to life; he looks fat
and hearty now, and they tell mo when ho com
menced your medicine he was nothing but skin and
bones. The sore on his breast is healed over, and
yon can see the one on the forehead is healing up
from the top. I wish it had been so that I could
have taken ft when he was at his worst, but I could -
not leave my office, and he Ilves some distance from
here. Yonrs lieapectfally.
