Pushing Through.

Business success is not n lettering
traveller who, of his own accord, will
wander on until finally he reaches your
threshold. You must 60 after him, hunt
him up ; it may be difficult to find him,
but don't give up the search, push on
and on until you do meet him. The
journey may be troublesome, but it is
sure to pay, and a handsome reward will
result from your hard and honest push.
Shun all the slow stage coach ways of
urging on your abilities take the loco
motive speed of push keep on the
track avoid all tempting but unprofita-
BILE switches, and, with fires all aglow,
and machinery we'll oiled, push on to the
next station, and then to the next, and
rest assured you will successfully reach
the pr oper destination in full time, and
with valuable load of paying freight.
Half the success obtained in this life,
an exchange says, is owing, not so much
to luck or capital, as to vigorous
pounding away at the rough difficulties
until the road to fortune is cleared of its
barriers, and straight path opens to
the traveller endowed with his share of
honest, determined and energetic push.

Ad0rnment OF Home.

Money which goes to buy o picture,
statuette or tasteful bracket for home
adornment is wisely spent. If young
people, just commencing life, after they
have secured the few pieces of furniture
that must be had, and made sure that
they are what they ought to be, have
some money left to get picture, an en-
craving, or cast, they ought to go to
work to supply this want as seriously
as they would the other, which seems
the more necessary, but in reality is not
q bit more necessary. The general
character Of home will make O great
difference to the children who grow up
In it, and to all whose experience is as
sociated with it, whether it be beautiful
and cheerful one, or only homely and
bare one, or a merely formal and con-
ventional one. The relation of these
things to education is all that gives
dignity or poetry to the subject, or
makes it allowable for reasonable man
to give much thought to it. But it has
O real vital relation to life, and PLAYS an
important part in education, and de-
serves to be thought about a great deal
more than 1t is. Seeming trifies like
this rake life either happy or miserable.

The Panel Thief,

New York is investigating her panel
thief business. Old police captains saw
these establishments are the most diff
cult to break up, because the panel thief
takes the trouble to learn all about her
intended victim, and usually selects q
stranger in the city, q man who has a
family and surroundings of respectable
character, and one who has considerable
self-conceit. Panel thieves take q great
deal of pains, also, to learn how much
Will be necessary to pay their victim s
hotel bill and his fare home. When the
trap is all ready they spring it, but
never take all the money their victim
has. This precaution almost invariably
keeps the victim from telling his loss or
seeking aid to recover his property.
Panel thieves do not take iewelry, nor
any other article which can be identi-
fed, except when they find that the vic
tim carries such a large sum of money
about him that it is worth while to break
up the house for the sake of it. Then
they strip him, In such a case all the
persons engaged in the robbery leave
the city at once. When the victim
brings the police to the house it isfound
to be closed and empty, arrangements
having been made previously to have
the house cleared of it's furniture. There
are many modes of robbery similar in
some respects to panel thieving, but in
these the victim is stripped of eyery
valuable thing, while panel thieves
would soon have their business broken
up II they pursued 80 reckless course.

The Good OF 1t.

AS "to the good Of it," says Gen.
Hawley, in an address on rifle shooting,
it can provide in our country our strong
est protection against foreign war.
There is no nation in tho world but
would hesitate to attack another who.e
soldiers were practiced long-range
marksmen. Skill in accurate shooting
would counterbalance military disci,
pline. A regiment armed with breech-
leaders and drilled in marksmanship
alone would put to route the best drilled
regiment of regulars before the latter
could march half mile. Raw troops
who know they can shoot will possess
confidence which otherwise would only
come of months of training. 1t is there
fore for the good of any nation which
does not maintain regular army that
its citizens should know how to handle
the best firearms effectively. The in
PRODUCTION of long range shooting has
done much to improve the general skill
of our people in the use Of the rifle, as is
shown ut every target shoot and in the
numerous rifle clubs which have been
formed all over the country.

RObbing the Mails.

A Boston dealer in seeds sends q COM

ing tine extent Of the tiiievory practiced
in our post-office service. Sixteen hun
dred letters we're stolen from him during
q period Of four er five months last year,
and this year, between January 1 and
May 20, he has been compelled to apply
for four hundred and sixteen duplicate
money-orders to replace an equal num-
ber stolen. AS only sums under one
dollar are sent in cash, the pilfering is
small, but even this makes IN individual
loss of 50, 600 year, and does, besides,
incalculable injury in damaging reputa-
tion for business promptitude and hon
est dealing, as well as in disappointing
plans for the planting of crops and gar
dens. This is the complainant's story:
1t must be taken into consideration TINT
his report of stolen letters is large, be-
cause his receipt of letters is enormous;
but still the number stolen amounts. to
two and one-half per cent of those re-
ceived. This is sufficiently alarming
and discreditable. 1t is evident that It
is unsafe to send money through the
mails,

Advice for Dull Times.

Advertising is great bother. It only
brings lot of folksto your place of bust
ness. If they want you let them hunt
you up. Then II you get your name in
tho paper you will be bored with drum
mers and people from the country will
call on You and you will have to show
them goods, and like enough have to do
up bundles for them, which will exhaust
your stock 30 much that you will be
obliged to buy more goods, which is a
great trouble. If you advertise, TOO, it
gives your place a reputation abroad ;
folks will go there and crowd you, and
make it too lively. If you don't want to
do anything keep as still as you can.

Hardy solomo2s the great banker of

Question of His failure is quite another
matter, as he has closed his bank to get a
settlement with the State. It is said he

pay which the bank holds. The Union
Herald of Sunday says;
As banker and a merchant, Mr.. Solo.
mon, Its president, was popular with ali
classes, and bis financial soundness was
never doubted until within a short peri
cd. The last legislature voted neatly
unanimously to constitute his bank, with
the Carolina national, the only pub
lie repositories. That bill was vetoed
by Governor Chamberlain. In his mes
sage he remarked that if he consulted
pcrsonal considerations, it would given
him pleasure to sign the act. His main
objection to it was that it deprived the
treasurer, comptroller and governor of the
power to change the repositories in case
they should deem them insecure. In the
same message he questioned most seri-
ously the wisdom and safety of the policy
of placing our state funds IN any banks
Yesterday the attorney general, on be-
half of the state. petitioned Judge Car
penter in chambers tor the appointments
of receiver to take charge of the assets
of the bank for the benefit of such credit
ors as may become parties to the action.
Mr. Solomon appeared, and by counsel
admitted the facts alleged by the state,
and offered no objec tion to the appoint
mcnt of receiver. 1t is understood that
Comptroller General Dunn will be ap-
pointed by the judge on Monday.
As, however, 100000 of the funds in
the broken bank belongs to the Interest
account out of which which past due
coupons on the consolidated bonds are
paid, the operation of funding will be
necessarily suspended until the meeting
of the Legislature.

in good earnest upon the opening of the
fall There are no less than six fin,
.schooners now loading with lumber from
alongnde the R"il Road and we arc told
that President Wilson is giving entire
satisfaction IN the prompt delivery OF
the lumber from the different mills ON the
line OF the Road destined for the several
conslgnees. The administration of the
affairs of the road since the mana cement
OF Mr. Wilson has demonstrated the abil-
Ity c. the road, not only 10 give salts

and impartially for the benefit of the
cesnme1ce OF the Port We understand
that the freight receipts are averaging
one thousand dollars week ut this end
ef the Road, and that Capt. John w. Kerr
ffe Agent IS obliging and systematic.
Iee lumber trains make daily trip and
are ample to keep the vessels loading
without unnecessary demurrage. Such
thing has never been the case lefore
asid 1t is now all due to the admirable
end systematic management Of President
wilson whose exestions and energies are
anfiring IN cheiaterest Of the Road. His
eoAdsutor Cart Fleming, who during
pTevtous administrations was harshiy
blamed for some of its short comings, has
exhibited very marked competency and
capabillty to be allied with Mr.. Wilson in
making the road grand success from
hcnceforth. All onr misgivlngs con.
cerning the prospects Of the road vanish

The Port Royal Rail Road is now in good

combinations by which it is how
