Wait.


Wait. husband, before you wonder
audibly why your wife don't get along
with the household responsibilities " as
your mother did," She is doing her
best-and no woman can endure, that
best, to be slighted. Remember the
long, weary nights she sat up with the
little babe that died; remember the love
and care she bestowed upon you when
you had that long fit of illness. Do you
think she is made of cast ironi Wait
wait in silence and forbearance, and the
light will come back to her eyes-the
old light of the old days.
Wait, wife, before you speak reproach-
fully to your husband when he comes
home late, and weary and "out of sorts. Z"
He has worked hard for you all day
perhaps far into the night; he has wres-
tied, hand in hand, with care and sell
fshness, and greed, and all the demons
that follow in the train of money max
ing. Let home be another atmosphere
entirely. Let him feel that there is DO
other place in the world where he can
find peace, apd quiet, and perfect love,

An Extraordinary Tumor.

An inquest has been held at Consett,
says an English paper, on a woman
named Wake, whose death was caused
by tumor of extraordinary dimensions.
1t had been growing for four years, but
the woman refused to have it removed.
She was attended by "herbalist, who
foolishly by giving her medicine en-
deavored to burst it. DR.. Benton was
called, and said that the tumor was
three and half feet high, and contained
forty imperial quarts of semi-solid fluid.
The coroner said that the herbalist had
acted with gross ignorance, but he was
not criminslly responsible for the wo.
mans death,

A SHOWER OF PINE BARK.-The Raj
eigh IN. o. Nea0s of a late issue says !:
"We are informed by eye-witnesses of
the occurrence, that on Tuesday last, in
the afternoon, about two O'Clock great
quantity of pieces of pine bark fell in
and around yard in this city. The
fragments of bark appeared to have
been violently torn from the trees. Many
of them were of the size of ones hand.
The pieces of falling bark might be seen
at a great height in the air-as much as
200 or 800 feet. The puzzled viewers
of this curious shower could give no ex-
planation of the cause of the occur

A (aIored Exodus.

The emigration OF colored people from Mis-
sissippi to Arkansas and Kansas is alarming
creasing vigor. On the Mississippi and Tennes-
see railroad this movement has attracted the
attention ct the officers Of the company; as the
four months. These have settled in Arkansas,
on the line of the Little Rock and Fort Smith
folks are also og removing from the bottoms. that
part OF Mississippi which has been the para
disc of the colored man.. Kansas has received
the majority OF these emigrants.
There are no data at uand to show how ma ny
colored families have been lost to Mississippi.
The fact is indisputable that the State is losing
II colored population, 10 the extent that it
z loses IN population 1t loses in labor and the
State becomes poorer. The causes which have
made the colored people, think Of removing
worth finding out. They have been induced to
remeye from the upands and the older South
ern States to West Tennessee, to the Missis-
sippi bottoms and to river lands in Arkansas,
becaYse there more cotton could be raised and
9 9 secured d. But now they seem to

are In mood, as race, to change in hope of
lettering their condition. This Is an evidence
OF improvement in their menal condition; and
evfnceS spirit OF enterprise. The Liberia
movement will not be success, but we are in A.
clined to the opinion that the movement to the
States west OF the Mississippi river will be as
formidable as that Of the whites which sweeps
pills.
The vacant places of the whites in the States
east Of the river will be filled by others Of the

creasing its white population, which is moving
from the cold Northwest In search of milder
winters, But Mississippi is not sought for by
the whites. and IL the State continues to lose its
eolored laborers, it will of course become poorer

The Last French wheat Crcp.

q Official returns of the French harvest last
year show that the wheat crop was 27l 1896, 100
bushels. as against 25e.72624s bushels in 1876.
The average, yield per acre was less than in
1876. put while 1852, 500 acres were sown in
wheat that year. there was an increase Of nearly
1000 600 acres In the crop of 1877. Upon the
other hand, the quality of last years
wheat is decidedly inferior to that OF 1916. for
while the 2s6.72C24s bushels from that year
weighed 7.232.7s6 TONS al, 1895 100 bushels
grown last year weigh but 7,423s0o tons. In
other words. while the wheat Of 1875 averaged
81 pounds bushel. that of 1877 averaged but 50
pounds per, bushel The best of the French
last year averaged 25 bushels per acre. the
Seine-et- Disc and the somme q bushels and
the Ain. the Ainse. the Seine-et- Marne the Pas
et-Loire 70 bushels. The general average for
the whole country is IN the neighborhood OF is
or 16 bushels.
