The Georgia Legislature is making an eff
fort to do away with the custom of wholesale
murder in that State by enacting law which
provides that courts must drop all other busi-
ness to hasten through any murder case that
comes before them, and if there is no court
in session the judge must call session and
at once try the accused. Such law as this
would be of advantage all over the country.
Two-thirds of the murderers who escape con-
viction owe their good fortune to the fact that
delays are not dangerous, but, on the con-
trary, great safeguard which they one and
all seek as the prominent feature Of their de-
fense.

Young man, save some of your strength
for old age. 1t is curious. but true, that
bottle of champagne at 20 may intensity the
rheumatism of three score. 1t is fact, that
everlasting the eye at IA may necessitate
the aid of spectacles at 40instead of so. We
advise our young readers to be saving of their
health for their old age, for the maxim holds
good with regard to health as to money
waste not, want not. 1t is the greatest mis-
take to suppose that any violation of the
laws of health can escape its penalty. Nature
forgives no sin, no error. She lets off the
offender for 80 years sometimes, but she catches
him at last, and inficts the punishment just
where, just how he feels it the most Save
health as well as money.

LITTLE By. LITTLE.

Little by little time goes by
Short IL you sing through it, long IL you sigh;
Little by little-an hour q day,
Gone with the years that have vanished away;
Little by little the race is run,
Trouble and waiting and toll are done.
Little by little the skies grow clear;
Little by little the sun comes near;
Little by lit:ie the days smile ont
Gladder and brighter on pain and doubt;
Little by little the seed we SOW
Into beautiful yield will grow.
Little by little the world grows strong,
Fighting the battle of Right or Wrong;
Little by little the Rights has sway;
Little by little all longing souls
Struggle up near the shining geals.
Little by little the good in men
Blossoms to beauty for human ken;
Little by little the angels see
Prophecies better Of good to be;
Little by little the God of all
Lifts the world nearer the pleading call.

the boys enjoy themselves hugely. They

THE PEASANT GIRLS SONG.

My lady has wealth untold,
My lady is strangely fair,
Bright jewels encircle her ily-white throat
And shine in her golden hair.
And yet il seems to me,
When proudly she passes by,
That with all her gold and her lands untold
She is not sa happy asI.
MY world is q world of song,
From the woods where the birdlings meet,
To the realms afar where each silvery star
Is singing melody sweet.
Down at my lady's feet
Unnumbered suitors fall,
She rules with a wave OF her slender hand
Those lords and courtiers all.
But not for the Oldest name
Or the haughtiest title there,
Would I give the heart of a peasant lad
Whose home 1 have promised to share.
My world is a world of love-
Proud lady pass coldly byl
Your lands so fair and your jewels rare
Can not make you as happy as I.

The further the health authorities of New
York pursue their investigation of the tene-
msnt houses of that city the worse they find
things. Some of the late examinations in
the 11th ward have brought many pest spots
to public attention. In many of these houses
whole families sleep in single room, where
there is not window, and no other ventila-
ton than such as door affords; the cellars
and adjacent areas usually answer as a re-
ceptacle for dead cats; nobody ever seems to
pay any attention to burst waste-pipes, and
sewer gas fills most of the rooms day and
night We hear great deal more about the
dreadful and dangerous condition of these
tenement houses than we do about practical
measures to improve them The character
of the people is so much under the influence
of their domestic surroundings that the con-
dition of these houses is very important
matter in more respects than one.

A man who has the elements SO mixed

A man who has the elements so mixed
within him that he naturally, as one says,
borrows trouble, and crosses bridges before
he gets to them, and permits things small or
great to fret him, is bound to worry. He
may as well attempt to alter his complexion,
or change the thickness of his skin. as to stop
worrying. The most he can do is to control
the expression of his mental state without
himself-and that is often more wearing to
him, however it msy be to others, than to
give vent to his feelings.

Southern Women as House
keepers.

From Charlottesville (Va. Chronicle.
The misfortunes Of war, culminat-
ing in the loss of servants, has devolv-
ed on the daughters in Southern fami-
lies much Of the hard work formerly
done by the slaves, and they have be-
come more practical women than they
could ever have been if reared with
q servant at their command. In all
that pertains to the art Of housekeep-
ing, from the kitchen to the garnet,
the girls Of to-day are better educated
than their mothers were. They have
learned to work for themselves, and
for the families of which they are
members. Cultivated in mind and
muscle and morals, beautiful in form
and feature, modest i'll speech and in
apparel, the Southern girls are the
peers Of any the world can produce.

Farm and Household.
The Creed for a Farmer.

We believe in small farms and
thorough cultivation.
We believe the earth loves to eat as
well as the owner, and ought, there
fore, to be well MANFRED.
We believe in going to the bottom
of things, and therefore, deep blowing,
and enough of it. All the better if ii
be subsoil plow.
We believe in large crops which
leave land better than they found it,
making both the farm and the farmer
rich at once.
We believe that every farmer
should own good farm.
We believe that the fertilizer of any
soil is spirit of industry, enterprise,
and intelligence; with these, lime,
gypsum, guanO will be of little use.
We believe in good fences, good
farm-houses, good orchards, and good
children enough to gather the fruit.
We believe in clean kitchen, neat
wife in il, a clean cupboard, a dairy
and clean conscience.
We believe to ask mans advice is
not STOPPING, but of much benefit.
We believe that TO keep place for
everything, and everything in its
place, saves many step, and is pretty
sure to lead to good tools and keeping
them in order.
We believe that kindness to stock,
like good shelter, is saving of fodder.
We believe that it is good thing to
keep an eye on experiments, and note
all, good and bad.
We believe that it is good rule to
sell grain when it is ready.

CLOSETS that are damp are danger
Gus enemies to health. Ifyour closets
are damp and engender mold which
encases not only boots and shoses, but
also other articles Of wearing apparel,
obtain half peck of unslacked lime
and put in a shallow dish in the closet,
and it will absorb the dampness.
When it becomes quite dry it should
be renewed.
