We notice that many loads Of the
Pocomoke Phosphate are being deliv-
cred at the warehouse of Messrs.
Johnson & Hastings to farmers in the
neighborhood of this place. Many of
the grain growers with whom we have
conversed say they prefer the POGO
moke" to any other fertilizer and
some even go SO far as to say they
prefer it to Peruvian guano. Certain
it is that excellent crops are obtained
by its use.

The Little Sacrifices.

Let's us try TO be equal to the lit
tie sacrifices we must make for each
other; they will be quite enough, >
says Mr. HowelS, in one of the last
chapters of " A Modern Instance. -
j" Many a woman who would be ready
to die for her husband makes him
wretched because she won't live for
him." True as this is and nicely put,
it would be far more widely true were
it said of husbands rather than of wives
Very many women most women, we
might say-are capable of, and even
take delight in, degree and kind of
continuous self-sacrifice that few men
ever approach. Any man of ordinary
character would go through fire and
water for the woman he loved. Fortune,
honor, life itself he would gladly lay
down, if need be, for her sweet sake.
No sacrifice, he thinks and says to him
Self if not to her, would be too great
to testify his love, and he means all he
says. But it is the little sacrifices, not
the great ones, that are the test OF de
votion, and it is oftenest in these that
the men will fail.
Not consciously. He would cut off
his right hand rather than cause her
the smallest pain; he would give up
every personal comfort to promote her
happiness. But she does not want him
to cut off his hand, nor even to change
his settled habits, which she accepts as
part of himself She asks nothing of
him, and so he forgets that she needs
anything at his hands--needs thou
sand things, thoughts, words, looks,
acts, that he alone can give. =" II | had
only thought, he says 10 himself after
wards The trouble is that me didn't
think. lie seldom does. Though he
would die for her, he has not learned
to live for her. He is really living for
himself.
There are women, no doubt, Of
whom this Is also true, yet who does
not know that the life of majority of
wives is one of daily and hourly sacri-
fee, not in great things, but in the lit
tie things that the man never sees ? =
Her tasks and her pleasures are alike
subordinate to his. 1t is not what she
would like, but what he would like, that
guides her in her goings out and her
comipgs in, and his carelessness and
seliishneSs, his cold neglect or his i'll.
timed manifestations of affection she
alike accepts and only strives ;ac more
10 serve him.
We have no concern with the people
who tell us that this is {" woman's lot >
The average man is not so near brute
that lie will consciously accept wo-
mans sacrifice as his right and make no
offering in return. But while he is
waiting for the opportunity to do some
great thing as a token Of his love he
does not perceive that he is undergo
ing all the time a far more searching
test in the countless little things that he
would think, if he thought of them at
all, too insignificant 10 be laid as gifts
upon loves altar. The wife meanwhile,
who made no such loud professions of
devotion, has subdued her life TO his
and in her self abnegation has uncon-
sciously been raised to a higher spiritu-
al plane. She is not the loser by her
sacrifice. Ii is the man who loses-the
man who pets and patronizes her when
he ought rather TO bow himself in the
dust before her.

LITTLE Eva, lovely and interesting
little daughter of Mir and Mrs. J S.
Price, died of diphtheria, at the Ma
tional Hotel in this place, after an i'll
ness Of about two weeks, at an early
hour on Monday morning last. In the
quiet old Presbyterian churchyard,
where her remains were gently laid to
rest on Tuesday afternoon last, rests the
little form so universally beloved. The
birds in the trees near her grass grown
grave shall yearly celebrate, at close of
day, the glad return of spring, but we
shall never more on earth behold the
one we miss. Gently as the sunset
flush fades from the evening sky, she
passed away. Too fair and precious
for this rude world, heaven claimed
her for its own. Endowed by nature
with surprising loneliness, her winsome
and affectionate manners made her a
favorite with all who knew her. But
now she is no more. The merry voice
is hushed the flashing eye is dim.
{" Her warfare is accomplished" and
her sufferings are ended in the peaceful
tomb Yet, while we mourn, let us
seek consolation in the thought that
she who thus untimely persisted shall
eternally bloom in the sunlight of her
Fathers smile, to droop and die no
more.
Flowers to flower, buds to bud,
Hearts ease check the fearful food
That falls from the sorrowing eye,
When the young and lovely die.
Now, arrayed in heavenly light,
Dressed and wreathed in virgin white,
Pure as snow shall she be known,
Resting in her deathless home.
Parents, cease your heartfelt grief
Sweet remembrance brings relief
Bow TO Father, Spirit, Son,
Till you join your little one. LID,

The Labor Question.

that was done fifty years ago by hand
is now done by machinery And yet,
the greatest trouble that formers have
to contend with is the not being able
to secure sufficient labor 10 properly
cultivate their farms.
There was time, in England, when
machinery began TO be cxlen sivcly in
troduced into the manufacture Of goods
that had before been produced by hand,
that the working masses rose UP in re
belion and threatened to tear down
and burn out factories that were intro
ducing l2bor-saving machinery. They
said that the introduction of machin-
cry, to do work which they had done,
was turning them out without the means
of earning their bread Their argu-
ment seemed true, but results disprov-
ed it, Ii took men to work the ma
chimes, and the machines, by cheaper
ing production, increased consumption
SO greatly that there was an increased
demand for labor.
This same result seems to have fol
lowed the extensive introduction of
machinery into farming, which has Ia
ken place in the last twenty years
Certainly, farm labor IS now more diff
fcult to obtain, and is better pad, than
ii was twenty, or even teaa years 20. =
Every well conducted farm now has
machines and machines, but it takes
men to work the machines, and the
effect OF the Introduction Of machinery,
! instead of decreasing the demand for
labor, seems rather TO have increased
the demand This may he accom-
ted for, in that machinery has caused
an increase in farm production, and
an increased nicely in the management
Of farms. We think it will not be a
mislatement to say, that many farms
in Kent county that pro5uced twenty
wears ago not more man "a avsraae Of
600 bushels Of wheat. now produce an
average Of 1000 or e.5oo. Though
machinery is principally instrumental
in stimuI1tiDp tbis increase in produc
ton the increase REQUIRES extra force
OF labor 10 handle it,
Every wear there is an increasing

former and that for sheriff 10 The latter.
This action does not please the Repub-
