A TRUE SKETCH OF DUTY'S
SACRIFICE

In the old and golden days of the
past, many years before the war there
arrived in this city from the North
young man named John V, Ayres His
advent was that of stranger, who
sought our Sunny South, not as mere
alventurer, but strong in those moral
intellectual forces which mark the man
and the gentleman He was of good
family, but moderate means Soon af~
ter bis arrival in the Crescent City,
young Ayres engaged in line of trade
on a small scale. Moved by the strong
est impulses of hope to win fortune and
the esteem and confidence of the peo>
pie in whose midst he proposed here's
after to live, he was soon remarked for
his industry and close attention to bust
ness. 1t was not in the nature of
things that such qualities should fail
of success, and Mr.. Ayres, therefore,
soon realized quite a comfortable IN
come.
This was the olden time when So
ciety, in this city, was organized upon
q more exclusive basis than now. AL
though strangers were always received
and.treatel with courtesy, still there was
peculiar pride of family that forbade
further intlmacies until they were con
considered warranted by long acquaint-
ance or the passport of family endorse
ments. But voung Ayres was no or
binary man, aud in his case sooner than
with other men the freezing convention
allsms of society began to break down.
Good manners and lofty spirit be-
spoke him the gentleman he claimed to
be, and without seeking it, the entree
to good society was unhesltatinSly ac
corded him, aud thus he became nc
uuainted with the accomplished daugh-
ter of prominent but naughty mcr-
chant. The acquaintance thus formed,
mutually ripened into the fondest love.
Deeming himself in such circum-
stances as to justify taking wife,
Ayres proposed and was accepted by
the young lady, contrary to the wishes
of her father and mother, who enter
tained what they regarded, higher
views for their only daughter than to
become the wife of man of uncertain
fortune and unknown family record.
The match was particularly opposed by
the father. Finding remonstrances OF
no avail, they finally gave an unwilling
consent to the marriage, and in q short
time the young couple was united III
the ''holy bonds Of matrimony."
Bysome strange misfortune, it was
not two months after his marriage be-
fore the young husband was completely
broken up in business, and lost every
cent he possessed. 1t was terrible
blow to both, and was all the more NOR.
tlfying because it seemed to verify the
remonstrances of the lady's father
| against the marriage; but it did not fol
an instant weaken the love she bore
her husband, nor the devotion that
marked his conduct toward her. Still,
it was an evil hour, in which the lady's
father did not fail to try and persuade
her to abandon her husband and re.
turn home. But this she firmly refus.
ed to do, saying she would share hel
husbands fortunes and misfortunes
Mr.. Ayres then determined to return
to his former home. New York-and
endeavor to make some arrangements
with his creditors. This to each was

Seven Hundred Acres in Tomatoes.

j. NJ. Lewis, of King Williams coun>
ty, Va, plants his tomato seeds IN Feb
ruary in hot beds made of rich earth.
He seldom waters, as they will stand
drought better and bear transplanting
more successfully if not so suceulent.
The early plants are set out in five-foot
squares, from the Goth of April to the
lst of May, each square receiving n
good supply of manure. For late
crop the seed are planted in these
squares, burrows having been run five
feet apart each way. The yield is an
average of peck to the hill. The
greatest enemy to the plant is the to-
bacco worm, but he grows large droves
of turkeys, which net as great seaven-
gers in this respect. He is preparing
next spring to plant seven hundred
acres in tomatoes, and has now seed
planted in hot beds covered by six huns
dred sashes, containing seventeen thou
sand panes of eight by ten glass.

Cure for Small -Pox.

: 81 am willing to risk my reputation
as public man," wrote Edward Hine
to the Liverpool Mercury, "if the
worst case of smallpox can not be
cured in three days, simply by the use
of cream of tartar One ounce of cream
of tarter dissolved in q pint of water,
drank at intervals, when cold, is a GER
tain, never failing remedy. 1t has
cured thousands, never leaves mark,
never causes blindness, and avoids tedi-
Gus lingerings.

Prepare the fruit by picking over,
peeiing, or whatever is required; then
place 1t in the jars in nice layers, neatly
arranged; then referring to the recips
for the particular kind of fruit to be-
put up, ascertain how much sugar
should be used to the quart. Dissolve
the sugar in hot water aud pour il over
the fruit, taking care to pour it into the
centre of the jar; add hot water till the
Jar is full, and apply the cap or stopper
lightly. Then set the jars into boiler
of warm water, on the bottom of which
strips of wood are placed; bring the
water to the boiling point, and let it re-
main as long as is required for that kind
of fruit Remove the jars from the
boiler, loosen the cap OF stopper for a
few minutes to let ont the hot air;
screw them down again, set the jars in
cool place, bat not in a draft, and
when the fruit is nearly cold, screw the
covers down as tight as possible, and
set away III dry, cool place.

A GOOD many people are puzzied
when asked The reason why the Presi
dents residence at Washington is called
the "White House. The origin of the
name is as follows: When the British,
in 1914, took Washington, they destroy
ed tie public buildings, including the
Presidents mansion, which, like the
Capitol, was built of grayish sandstone.
The burning of the woodwork smok-
ed and discolored the stone walls, the
natural appearance of which could
not be restored. Uniformity was secur-
ed by the application of white paint.
The changed appearance from gray to
white attracted attention, aud gave it
the appellation of the "White House"
which it has since borne.
In 1880 the range Of American bison
extended across the whole width of the
United States territory into the British
possessions on the north and the Mexi-
can Republic ON the south. To the
east it reached nearly to the line of the
Mississippi Valley, to the west to the
great mountain chains. Now the
last refugees of the animal are limited to
couple of comparatively small circles.
One of these lies far to the north, and
is distributed between the Territories
of Montana and Dakota; the other far
to the south, on the borders of New
Mexico and Texas.
