Nothing presents q sadder COM
mentary upon the present con-
dition of society than the large
number Of families, both in town
and country but more especially
in the latter, that subscribe to no
paper Of any kind. Hundreds and
thousands of families are thus
growing up utterly ignorant of
what is transpiring in the world
around .them-ignorant of the
mighty events Of the day. But
who can tell the vast amount OF
injury that is being inflicted on
the rising generation-those who
are to take our place in the busy
world at no distant day-growing
up without any knowledge of the
present, any study OF the past ;
this ignorance, too, being imbued
into them by the sanction OF
those who should, and doubtless
do, know better, did they only
think of the injurious effects oi
their course. Let the head Of
every family think Of this, and
place in the hands of those fol
whom he is responsible the means
Of acquiring some knowledge ot
the moving panorama in which
we act the different parts.

HIS RY OF GLENN
SPRINGS.

!. The legendary history of Glenn
Springs begins at some remote
time ages ago, when it was not
as now-crowded with visitors
from all parts of this and other
States, seeking heath and recrea-
ton. The story goes that the
spring was at that early time in
it's history, deep hid in large
swamp, with a thick forest around.
The animals were wont to visit it,
and had their beaten paths through
the swamp to the spring, and many
were the fierce contests that took
place between them over the
spring, and as they would meet
on the narrow paths leading to
it.
AS the fercer animals that then
inhabited that region were driven
to the mountains, the deer and
other animals of like habits filled
their places, and made use Of the
spring. Finding their place of
rendezvous, the Red man Of the
forest took advantage of it to sur
prise and take them with his we'll
aimed arrow, and many a noble
buck thus lost his life, while get.
ting new lease Of it from the
wonderful spring.
Later, the location and the vir-
tues of'the spring were disclosed
by the Indian to the white man,
and from that time up to the
present the fame Of the water has
steadily increased.
About the year 1885 the present
,, improvements were made, and
Glenn Springs was thrown open
as a Summer resort. From 1885
until the breaking out Of the war,
it was resorted to Sby the best
people from all sections of the
State.
In the company assembled from
sum mer to spmmer could be
found the most eminent men in
the State. The Governors with
other State officers, the Judges
and many other distinguished
men-with their families-were
accustomed to spend the summer
there together; and talk over
State affairs. Glenn Springs be-
came sort of summer capital OF
South Carolina.
Since the war the property has
changed hands several times, but
the place has generally been kept
open in the summer season, and
it's patronage has steadily in
creased, until last year, when the
number of visitors was larger than
it had been before for a number Of
years. Since the last season great
improvements have been made
about the place, in the way of
beautifying the grounds and of
adding other conveniences and
comforts for the guests. The sea-
son of1878 has opened earlier than
usual, under fattering auspices.

There are two points in the Paris
Exposition which, for weeks and
weeks, have been constant centers
of attraction. Go when you will,
early in the morning, or when the
shadows of night are falling the
eager, anxious, excited throng
seems always to be tie same. One
of these points is She exhibition
made by the diamond merchants
and jewellers of Paris the other is
the exhibition of the crown jewels
of France.
While the simple monetary value
represents many thousands of mil
lions of francs, the historical in
terest which centers around the
national collection is above and
beyond all estimate. It is not Of
ten that the common Eerd are al
lowed to feast their eyes on such a
sight. In many places on the con-
tinent are rich and royal collections,
and in the Tower Of London may
be seen the jewels of the crown Of
England, but the visitor is hur-
ried along and at the very moment
his attention is excited by some
thing of absorbing interest, a gen
tie push from the anxious attend
ant reminds him that time is pre-
cious. But here you can stand by
the hour if you wish and examine
these glittering piles of gems rea-
lizing that such a privilege is not
accorded to common people much
oftener than once a lifetime.
In the national collection are
eight royal coronets and four minor
tiaras of enormous value and OF
rare and exquisite beauty. Four OF
the eight coronets are composed al
most exclusively Of diamonds; one
is composed of magnificent pearls
| and diamonds, the others have
mingled with the king Of gems,
sapphires, rubies, emeralds, opals
and other precious stones. Lovely
strings of pearls are temptingly
displayed, but the Regent, like a
glittering star, stands solitary and
alone. This great gem was former

HEOTHER'S WAY.
By MAMIE A. EEPWoRTE.

Oft within our little cottage,
! As the shadows gently fall,
While the sunlight touches softly
One sweet face upon the wall,
Do we gather close together,
And IN hushed and tender tone,
Ask each others full forgiveness
For the wrongs that each have done.
Should you wonder why this custom
At the ending of the dag,
Eyes and voice would quickly answer,
"It was once our mothers way!"
If cur home be bright and cherry,
If it hold welcome true,
Opening wide its door Of greeting
To the many, not the few;
IF we share our fathers bounty
With the needy, day by day,
'Tis because our hearts remember.
This was ever mothers way.
Sometimes when our hands grow weary,
Or our tasks seem very long;
When our burdens look too heavy,
And we deem the right all wrong:
Then we gain a new, fresh courage,
AS we rise to proudly say:
ssLet US do our duty bravely,
This was our dear mothers way"
Thus we keep her memory precious,
While we never cease opray
That at last, when lengthening shadows
Mark the evening of life's day,
They may find US waiting calmly
To 60 home our mothers way!

ABERNETHY OUTw1TTED.-A very
taIkative lady, who had wearied
the temper ofMr. Abernethy, who
at all times was impatient of
babble, was told by him, the first
moment he could get a chance of
speaking, to be good enough to
put out her tongue. "Now pray,
Madame" said no playfally, "keep
it out" The hint was taken. He
rarely met with his match, but on
one occasion he fairly owned that
he had. He was sent for by an
innkeeper, who had had a quarrel
with his wife, who had scored his
face with her nails, so that the
poor man was bleeding and much
disfgured. Mr.. Abernethy con-
sidered this an opportunity not
to be lost for admonishing the
offender, and said, ''Madame, are
you not ashamed of yourself to
treat your husband thus-the hus'
band, who is the head of all

being hard of hearing she couldn't

"Well, | amt here to tell the

put it in a skillet and fry it for
four days" .-... .......l...s. ~.
II wonder if Mrs. Brown sent
me such a reseet as that" said the
old lady, but Jackie kept on
"Then put the watermelon in a
quart bowl and pour over it a
gallon Of vinegar, taking care not
to spill the vinegar ''1 -,-.1>, ~,'
"l'd just like to know how you

continued 81 , = .',''' 49, - -, p .
"Then sift a peck ofred peppers
