We are in favor of Bro. Philips prop
sition to meet at Jackson as requested,
and we nominate said brother as provis-
ionaI secretary to work up SAID meeting.
That youthful genius, Bro. Howry, would
no doubt, aid him in his clerical duties,
and we have no fear Of the success of the
enterprise. Masonic Jewel.
Bro. Philips having called our atten-
ton to the foregoing, and invited our
opinion, we have only to say that we
cordially second the proposition. The
Association could be organized IN the
Masonic hall in Jackson during some
evening of State Fair week, or, should a
sufficient number not be present, then
during the session of the next Grand
Lodge. We would suggest that the
Association be formed Of Masons Of
Twenty-Five years or more.

A Vicksburger who prides him.
self on his choice language was
over in Louisiana the other day on
business, and stopping at a farm
house to get drink of water, the
woman remarked that the crops
stood in great need Of rain.
ayes, rain is a great desidera-
tum," be replied, as he handed the
dipper back.
"Mary Mary y yelled the wo-
man, in loud tones.
A white-beaded girl of sixteen
came out of the back room in res
ponse TO the call, and the mother
continued:
"Take squar view of him, Mary!
He don't look as IL he knew enough
to pillow cotton, and yet he just got
off a word as long as from here tc

A man sleeping in a barn in Col

hay for a pillow. Uttering q cry
Of pain, he awoke q companion,
saying that he had run bis hand
against something which gave him
great pain. A light was obtained
when a large rattlesnake was found
in the box. The snake was i'm
mediately killed, and the old rem

and soon he was back in position.
"Mizz@, mother says she be-

Teaching Children Courtesy.

Many mothers forbid their tod
ding children any intercourse with
other little people because they
suppose it is not time for them to
fully comprehend the courtesies OF
life. This is the very reason why
they should be taught to be polite
and considerate at the earliest pos
sibie moment. We have seen pa
rents who seemed to suppose that
falsehood is a cardinal sin. But
to teach a child to speak the truth
requires a process Of Incompetent
sible reasoning, while an infection
Of pain upon another child has its
immediate results, and q child can
both see and feel the consequences
Of its unkindness. 1t is very curl
Gus to see little people when they
first meet. They usually look at
each other sharply, but speculative
ly, and after proper deliberation,
decide upon their line Of action.
1t Is either war or peace, but new
err entire indifference. Even the
peace may be but temporary, pro-
vided one possesses that which the
other covets. Doubtless this COW
etousness is not 50 much due to
original sin as to that deep law Of
human existence-self-preserva-
ton. The child who sees an ar
ticle in another's possession i'm
AGNES vaguely, perhaps, but posi-
lively that 1t Is q thing that is
necessary to its own welfare and
and instinct teaches him
to seize IL. Now this is not un-
frequently set down as an unpar-
donable sin, and an omen OF future
wickedpess Nothing Oap be more
unjust or unreasonable. IL Is q
Characteristic which, when proper
" guided, viii lead TO worldly sue
