BIOw Lives Are Shortened.

DR.. Stephen Smith says the most i'm
porlant of the general conditions which
shorten life IN our day is excessive ex-
penditure of vital force. This may Oc =
cur in vari Gus ways. In The young, II
food is imp roper or clothing insufficient
renewal doc ! not take place at an age
when the e1 penditure for growth is
greatest and ea ;haustion rapidly follows.
At maturity the passions ripsn into
activity and haw' their full play, aud if
not suitably controlled afford large and
exhaustive expendl ture of vital power.
Among the poor, lh' force is often ex-
hausted in the struggle 70: food among
the rich in the struggle for the laxurles,
wealth, position and power. Here,
owing to wear and tear from anxiety,
loss of sleep aud tae co ncomItances,
defective digestion and assimilation,
waste exceeds supply, aud exhaustion
exceeds renewal.
To the general causes OF waste we
would add impure air OF dwellings. I'M
properly prepared foods, iaebrlety, slul
tony. social dissipation, and ten thou''
aud nameless sources. constant impair
ment of the vital functions without
power of suitable rene val, which 6s up
the measure of mans daily life 70
society. Over nearly all of these cour
dl.ions man may, if be will, exert most
arbitrary control. He eau tfeed and
clothe the young. old and helpless; he
can moderate his passions to health
ful play, he can 80 regulate his habits
as 10 secure proportlonate expenditure
and renewal OF vital energy in his
food, in his drink, In his home. and at
business he can be we'll nigh master OF
everything that effects his welI-heiog.
With all This power Why such I-iIure !
We answer ignorance. The people at
large do not know, much less realize,
the extent to which they may control
their own longevity. Even the higher
circles OF society are ignorant of the na-
ture, whether for good or evil of the air
they breathe, the food they eat, the Wa
ter they drink, the clothes they wear.
Nay, more, the medical profession is 10
be devoted to the care OF the sick, that it
does not study as it ought the methods
of preventing sickness.

SELF-CoNTRoL. -In some people
passion and emotion are never checked
but are allowed 10 break out 10 blaze
whenever they come. Others suppress
them by main force and preserve CAL
lous exterior when there are raging llres
within. Others are never excited over
anything. Some govern themselves on
some subjects, but not On Others
Very much can be done to give the
will control over the feeling. The man
who governs his own spirit is greater
than he who rules the world.
One of the best means Of culture is
the persistent withdrawn. Of the mind
from the subject which produces the
emotion. The man or woman VINO
persistently permits the mind to dwell
on dlsagreeable themes only spiIes MIN

YOUNG .MEN.-Why is it that so
MANY Young men would rather deal out
sugar. draw syrup or measure clo'h
than become mechanics? Do they coa-
slder it more honorable to measure CAL
leo, sell tape aud plns, than to oecom'
industrious workmen, producers oi the
nations wealth? Do they thInk be-
cluse their hands are soft aud their hair
parted in the middle, that they are any
more respectable than he who laoors
and assists 10 making :he earth haoiIa-
ble? To The intelligent, dlligent young
man who deyotes himself to the me-
cbauical arts, especially 10 the SOUTH
there is a boundless field that will bring
a ricn reward. Fame and fortune beck
on him onward IN his career. HIS
hands may be hard and soiled, 1t mat'es
not. A stain on the hands can easily
be removed, far easier than the STAN
which shows ON so mauy OF those WHO
despise manual labor. A stain on tue
Land or coat is far better than STAN
upon the reputation.

Babies.

We love babies, and also every b)dy
else who loves babies. No man has
muse in his soul who doesn't love
babies. Babies were made 10 be loved,
especially girl babies-when they grow
up. A man isn't "shuck" who
hasn't baby, aud the same rule ap-
plies to woman. A baby is Spring
day in Winter, hot-hOuse in Summer,
a ray of sunshine in trisid Winter, and
if it's healthy and good-natured baby,
and you re sure it's yours, it Is bushel
of sunshine, no matter how cold the
weather. A man cannot be hopeless
case 30 long as he loves babies-one at
a time. We love babes all over no
matter how dirty they are. Babies
ere born 10 be dirty. Our love for
babies is Only bounded by the number
of babies in tie world. We always
look for IA abies we do so with anxiety
and pa,ernal affection; We do-indeed
we do! We always have sorrowful
feelings for mothers who have no babies;
and men who have none always gamble
and drink and stay out all nights trying
to get music in ther souls; but they
can t come 1t. Babies are babies and
nothing can take their place. We
know; we've tried, and we say there's
nothing hko a baby. We intend TO tell
our friends if they want TO be happy IN
this world they must have baby in the
house-onh OF their own is preferable.
Babies are a slimulant; they make
young man scratch gravel" A man
is hardly ever worth three red cenls un'
til he gets wife and baby. They
push him to it. While he Is making
enough for their support he is sure u
have something over.

FIRST AND LAST,

"But tell me, dear, she said
And coaxingly the soft eyes shOne,
And shyly dropped the modest head
Beside his own
but tell me, have you loved before!
Or one or more 2
The eager, sparkling face
Was full of tender, trusting grace
She did not fear his answer then,
Her king of men
aBut tell me, dear, the best and worst
Or am frst?'
He turned his eyes away
Yet closer still her hand he pressed
Nor answered yea nor nay;
A blush confessed
All, in one burning word,
Unsaid, unheard.
Quick came a burst of tears
A tempest storm from April sky
And then Forgive my doubts and fears,
He heard her sigh;
"Why should care what loves are past
So mine is last?

GREENWOOD, Del, Oct. 16, 1882
The ship Constitution arrived here at
noon to day. A large crowd had as
sembled to meet her. The weather is
unfavorable, raining now, but the peo-
pie stay with the ship and listen most
attentively to the speakers as they de-
tail the wrongs which our little State
suffers. Speeches were made by James
Penniwell, Geo. w. Roberts and Be-
niah Watson. Mrs. Mary A. Stewart
presented to the ship beautiful Blue
Hen. Mr.. Harrington made the pre-
sentation and Mr.. Penniwell received
it.
Mr.. Harrington said:"I am proud to
be able to present this beautiful blue
hen in the name of Mrs. Stewart and
other ladies. Every Delawarean Is
proud to be called "Blue Hen Chick.
en-" 1t was the emblem emblazoned
on Delaware banner at Eutaw Springs
and AT Cow Pens, when America con.
tended with Britain. The chicks OF the
same Blue hen helped peck TO death the
old secession snake. Every one who
votes for the new Constitution shall be
an honored chicken of this Blue Hen,
and she will hatch out more Republi-
can voters before November Z, than the
Democrats will care to count.
l accept it, therefore, as reminder
of the glorious tradition, as a woman's
contribution to the honest enthusiasm
which the cruise of this ship has
awakened. We will bring her back
with brood of chicks such ~ will end
forever the rule of the Delaware Bour-
bOns."
Mr.. Penniwell in accepting the gift,
told this story 4 colorod man hid
himself in a barrel, and was covered
with straw and eggs The barrel was
shipped and sold. When the purchaser
opened the barrel re saw nothing but
t,e negro's head sticking up above the
contents, whereupon he ran to Eli
Salisbury, telling him that he had
bought barrel Of eggs every one of
which would hatch niger.
This blue hens eggs would not hatch
niggers, that day was past; but the
voters for the new constitution would
number more than barrel full and the
7th Of November would find the boxes
full of new constitution ballots and
assure the peace aud prosperity of our
little State. II.
BRIUGEvILLE, Oct. 16, 1897 p. m.

The crowd which gathered to hear
the speaking was very large, attentive

and George W. Roberts. At a late
hour the meeting adjourned amid
