Snnilax.

Smilax is an exceedingly graceful
vine, with glossy, green-ribbed leaves,
and is now more extensively used than
any other plant for decorating parlors,
the hair, and for trimming dresses.
With little care it can be grown sue
cessfully as house plant. The vine
does not require the full sun, but will
grow well in partially shaded situa-
ton. 1t can be trained on a small
thread across the window or around the
pictures. Pot the bulbs as soon as re-
ceived, watering but little until you see
signs of growth. They grow very rap
idly, and should always have strings to
Irvine on. Give plenty of fresh air, but
he careful not to let direct draught of
cold air blow upon the vines, as they are
very tender when young. Give them a
warm place and they will amply repay
all care. When growth is complete,
the foliage will turn yellow. Then
gradually withhold water, and allow
the bulbs to dry. They then can be
put in some dry, cool place. After they
have been in this dorment state six or
eight weeks they will begin to show
signs of life, and then are ready for an
other seasons growth.-Vicks Magazine.

resting Cox, met Aston and begged
him to retire. Aston was southern
born and bred, and fought duels, but
was averse to bloodshed. He told Col
onitt that Cox would kill him unless he
(Alston) fred first. Procuring revol-
yer. he still avoided Cox, but the latter
followed him into the state treasurer's
Office, bidding him fight. Both began
firing at close quarters, until Cox badly
wounded, clinched Aston and put a
bullet into his brain. 1t was despica-
BILE murder fora thoroughly contempti-

Sunday Schools require new music
often, and new book of bright, at
tractive music is always acceptable,
which we judge "The Tree of Life" to
be. Mr.. w. o. Perkins, the senior edi-
tor, has had large and successful ex-
perience as a musical author, and we
find some of his best work here. Mr..
Condos music appears to be fresh and
pleasing, just such as Sunday Schools
want. Over sixty authors are repre-
scented by contributions of words or
music. There are pieces for S. S. pic
MICS, teachers classes, adult classes, in
FAINT classes, S. S. concerts, temperance
meetings, gospel meetings, etc. 100

The Barbarism of Chivalry.

The shooting of Col. Robert A. Aston
in the state capitol at Atlanta week be-
fore last, illustrates the most revolving
features of the old southern code and
affords good opportunity to tone up
public sentiment by enforcing the due
penalty of the law. Georgia has about
100 state-prison convicts, 1000 being
blacks, who are let out to contractors
to detain and work. Col. Aston de-
nounced the brutality of the system in
the Legislature. The convicts were
worked under the most unfavOrable
conditions and fast being reduced by
disease, while the contracts were dis
trlbuted to corrupting extent among
prominent men, Senator Gordon had
one and employed Aston as attorney
to dispose of it. Aston made sale to
one party, while certain Capt. Cox
wanted he should sell to another. Cox
was so enraged at Alston's disregard of
his wishes that he threatened to kill
him and pursued him on the street with

Don't Coddle Paupers too Much.

Editors Table Sunday Afternoon for March)
The crude idea of many almsgivers
is that it is their business, just so far as
they have the power, to relieve all suf-
fering, no matter what its cause may
be, and no matter what the effects of
such relief may he upon the sufferers
themselves or upon the community.
Probably these good people take for
literal rules of conduct some of those
hyperbolical maxims of our Lord by
which he sought to break the neck of
Pharisaic hardness and exclusiveness.
"Give to him that asketh thee and
tIom him that would borrow of thee
turn not thou away" When that is
followed as Il literal rule it soon re-
duces itself to absurdity, and some of
this bsuIdity, gets Incorporated into
the charitable gifts of many well-mean-
ing Christians.
Perhaps, too, they remember the sec
Ond great commandment of the law,
and reason about it on this wise: 81
am hidden to love my neighbor as my
self. But do not like to suffer, there
fore | ought TO relieve the suffering of
my neighbor." But this command will

the plainest duty to stand back and let
the retributiOns of natural law fall up
OH those who persist in disobeying the

need of patience in dealing with those
who have fallen or who are falling into
the habits of dependence. They need
to be instructed in the obligations of
self-support and the limitations of char
ity, They need to have their self-re-

| too narrow. 1t is humiliating to pride
to make changes which will tell friends
and neighbors that one has been unfor
tunate, or injudicious and so you g
on, burdened with care, worried by de-
mands which you cannot meet, an6
which increase in proportion to you
inability. Now, there is neither sense
nor wisdom in carrying loads which di
minish strength, and add nothing tt
growth in grace. All reasonable per-
sons must be convinced, on reflection
that life is too brief to be wasted in the
struggles to keep up vain show. What
have we to do with self-impOsed vexa
tions? Is not the life more than meat
Shall it not possess some freedom, some
margin, some elasticity? We desire
breathing spaces, mountain tops, room
for friends, and room for our own souls
and we cannot have them, if the demon
of debt he forever logging our steps.
Another source of Improbable sorrow
arises from fancied sights and neglects,
and from small misunderstanding Too
much importance ought never to be at
tached 40 these. We should not be too
sensitive for comfort. We should not
too tenaciousiy watch over our person
al dignity. The trivial things which
destroy our compOsure, and invade our
peace, are pitiful. An acquaintance is
preoccupied, and passes us with a hur-
ried recognition on the street another
fails to return our call, OF seems to pre-
fer the society of some one else to ours,
and we are narrowed and hurt. Jeal-
ousy is the discomfort of outraged love,
not only, it is the hateful child of envy
and covetousness. 1t is not too mean
to be displayed by a petted animal, or
by an aggravated baby. Ignorant wo-
men nourish it in the breasts of little
ones under their care, not dreaming of
the harm they ale doing. Through the
years of a human life, there can be no
passion so allied to the serpent brood
of evil, as this half insane trait of jeal
ousy. ......
So often must we sit beneath the
shadow, so often shed the tears of be-
reavement and regret, and so often toll
upward bearing the cross, that we
should court no useless rigOrs. Let us
be receptive to all which is gracious
and winning. Let us be happy our
selves and make others so. 1t is the
brave heart which is the CHEEKY one.
Suffering, for suffering's sake only, is
not meritorious. To shiver in dun
geon, when there is Il south wind blow
ing and flowers are abloom in the
spring warmth, is to behave like an
idiot, not like saint. Count that day
lost, iu which you have not made a
child gladdeI, nor given a delight to
your beloved, nor blessed the mourner
by your gentleness.
There must he offenses, but the Sa-
viours words stand: "Woe unto him
