.ro three ,naIsens rho loved 4 klae

There were three inaidons who loved q king
They sat together beside the sea;
One cried. % love him, and would die
II but ter one day he might love me ]"
The second whispered q Aud would Ole
To gladden. mis- life or make him great"
The third one spoke not but gEzed aiar
With dreamy eyes that were fad % fate.
The king he loved the hrst FOR d day:
The second his life with a fond love blest
And yet the woman who never spoke
Was the one Of the three who loved him best.
An editor wrote a leading article on
the fair sex, in the course of which he
said: "Girls Of seventeen or eighteen
ae fond Of beaus." When the paper
WA issued, he was rather shocked TO dis
cover that an unfortunate typographical
error had made him say Giils of
seventeen or eighteen are very fond Of
beans"
One the pupils of Mencius asked Of
his teacher, How is thatwe zee superior
men eating without laboring ?" to which
the instructor replied, " When a superior
man resides in q country, il its sovereign
employs his counsels as he ought he
comes to tranquility, wealth, honor and
glory If tine young follow his instruc.
tionsa as they ought they become trueheart-
ed and faithful" What greater example
than this of not eating the bread OF idle
ness.
Idleness is the mother of vice, and
boy who is allowed TO grow up in idle
ness is pretty sure to be vicious man.
The parents of such boys have a fearful
responsibility resting upon them when
they let their sons run about late hours
Of the night instead OF keeping them ct
home reading good newspapers ar books,
and training them into moral habits 10
IS TO become respectable men instead OF
idlers, rum-drinkers, gamblers and loaf
ers, which is sure TO be the case with the
night-runners and day-idlers, then the
responsibility is increased. Give the
boys plenty to do, and you viii preserve
their morals. Better a tired body than
a vicious mind
.Forbearance il the keynote Of mar
ried life. There can be no great discord,
there can be no large divergencies from
tunefulness, so long as the husband for
bears and the wife forbears. Now, this
cannot be attained without some labor.
Results are approached gradually in
character, as they are in making a sand
hiH II is grain upon grain, shovelful
upon shoveful, and load upon load, that
causes the mound 10 rise. So results OF
character come gradually. An act at
this time, a deed yesterday, a word this
morning, a cross answer to-day repeated
a month hence, and 80 on, till st last you
find there a ridge between you and your
wife's or husbands Affection Golden
Rule.

The socislistic labor party of New

Atlanta Constitution: The latest I
fling OF the Dutch scullion who edits the
the Personal Intelligence" column of
the New York Herald, and who depends
upon the good Offices of the members of
the Paragraphers' association to keep
him in his place takes the shape of an
insinuation that the old-time southern
families still refuse to associate with the
ladies and gentlemen of the north. Does
Mr.. Benefits scullion believe that gen
tility is the result of climate? There
has never been time since the war that
an 'old-time southern family" would not
associate with northern ladies and gen
tlemen.
Griffin (Ga.) News Several gentle
men around Griffin have been shipping
fruit north for weeks past, realizing
handsome profit. Middle Georgia is one
of the finest fruit-gfowing countries in
the world, and with proper care and
attention could be made to yield a great
income for our people. While all of our
citizens and the farmers of the county
have small orchards for supplying home
wants, few of them perceive the rich
revenue in the business of fruit-growing.
The industry is richer and more mex
than gold mines. A Macon !
gentleman, a few weeks ago, made
large shipment north of early peaches,
which he sold at the fabulous price Of >
thirty-5ix dollars per bushel. Other I
fruit-growers in this section have real .
lied fifteen, twenty and twenty-five ,
dollars per bushel.
