a triumph mutually won.
Here we're placed TO work for good
To 10 the best We can,
To illustrate by brotherhood
The usefulness of man.
Who stands alone and darcs despise
The assistance Of his race.
Who 'gainst all manly sympathy
And friendship turns his face
Who says. I'm independent. l
Can do my work alone,
Ny triumph alone can win.
1t shall be all my own"
Who thus must speak shall surely find
Some day how hard and cold
Within the heart will be the faith
Which he thus dares TO hold.
No mind. however grsa. its powers
To build up and TO plan,
Can work success without the aid,
The aid Of brother man.
He's but boaster who dares say:
Il build my OWL success,
And ask no aid from any one
To bring me happiness.
Upon each other we must lean,
To mutual faith hold fast,
And do our best. and We shall find
Our triumph won at last.

The Lesson Of a Life.

In December. lSi5, in the department
Of the Vosges, Xavier Tririat, boy Of
ten, accompanied four girls of about
the same age TO the church. They had
to cross brook, over which was placed
u single loose plank. The boy crossed
it safely. but the FIRST girl that Al
tempted it fell in. The hoy jumped
in. pulled her out, and then, walking in
the water. guided each Of the girls
across. Sometime was lost by this, and
the party reached the church late.
Xavier, ashamed of being late did not
go up 10 the stove. bu. kept behind
lie reached home chilled. "a dangerous
disease followed. by which he was left
cripple for life. His only mode Of
moving about was on hands and knees,
SC completely were his legs distorted
Coming from very poor people, there
was every prospect that Tririat wsuld
be heavy charge to his family. and a
wretched burden to himself Instead
of this he reached manhood bright,

he was soon the best educated man in
the district, and rapidly acquired eX-
tsnsive influence, which was always
used for good. lie induced the young
people to read and study. Some con
tributions 10 the local newspaper. the
EeLo des Iosges. attracted attention aud
made him known. the result of which
was that further intellectual opportuni-
ties were extended 10 him. He made
himself good botanist. meteorologist
and geologist. instructed others In these
branches, ami procured the foundation
OF several local libraries He could
not. however. bc satisfied without
achieving his complete independence
and earning his own support. He OBJ
tanned the position of manager of the
telegraph at neighboring town. was
made secretary Of the mayor. and be-
came a iavorite correspondent to sey-
eral agricultural papers. and received
the highest reward Of the Franklin
society" its gold medal All this was
accomplished by native force Of char
actsr aud siroug religious feeling, under
circumstances not merely adverse. but
at first absolutely hopeless. A horrible
detormi,y, intense suffering: absence Of

disabilities were overcome nnaided, and

 SHEEP RAISING.

Holly Springs (Miss.) Reporter: Mr. N. II. McComb, Of the Red Bank neigh borhood, had, in December, herd of sheep numbering ninty-two. The num- Der has since been increased by the ad- dition of eighty-two. At no further cost, these lambs in the summer, will bring, in this market, four dollars each Make your own figures. There is a barrel of money in sheep-raising.
 Will some of our cotton raising farm CTS figure out the above sum and then tell us if they can beat it at cotton-rais- ing? We have very often wondered that there is so little attention paid to sheep-raising in this section. of the State. We have frequently heard me from other States remark upon the healthy, clean looks of what few sheep they have noticed here and upon learn ing that sheep live the whole year round here, healthy and in good order, without scarcely any feeding at all, they have expressed surprise that our people did not pay more attention to sheep-raising. The net profits which may De derived from llock or sheep we do not think can be beat by any other industry followed in our country. Pope county ought to export wool and mutton enough every year to amount to thousands of dollars. There is an immense quantity of wooden goods im- ported to this county every year, all of which mioht he manufactured at home wooden mills if our people would only pay a reasonable attention to sheep raising.
 We submit that it would be a wise and paying exchange for our f;HAiers to get rid of some of their hungry dogs and their worthless razor-back hogs and try flock of sheen
