CURED BY TOBACCO.
Franklin, Ga. News.

Mr.. z. B. Claxton, who lives a
mile from town, has the most remark
able baby we ever saw. The child is
now a little more than two years old.
Very early in its babyhood it became
a victim to fits, and the skillful medi-
cal aid proved to be of no avail. But
what is so remarkable is, when it was
not more than three months old it
showed an intense desire for tobacco.
When any one would take chew in
its presence its little face would be
lit with smiles as its small growthless
hands stretched out for it. This ac-
ton of the little invalid was noticed
for some time, and finally its father
determined to give it tobacco, not
outstanding the strong protestations
of the family. 1t took it eagerly and
chewed it, swallowing everything.
The child showed no symptoms of
sickness from it whatever, and from
that it began the regular use of to-
bacco. This produced a happy effect,
and the child soon began to fatten.
Medical treatment, of course, was
with, and is now the club
best and most healthy looking of all
of Mr.. Claxton's family. Its recov-
cry is attributed wholly to the use of
but since it has been cured
it seems not to crave the weed and
refuses to take it when offered; and
now Mr.. Claxton thinks it will never
use tobacco again. This is indeed a
wonderful case.

OPPOSITION.

Not long since we heard a good
man complaining of the opposition
he had met with in his early career.
And yet to that very opposition the
speaker owed no doubt, much of the
after character of hardihood and Wig
or for which he to-day is noted. OPP
position of a mere personal kind,
though mean and malignant, may in
the end turn out to be friend in
disguise. We do not mean that one
who opposes another for mere per-
sonal or partisan ends can ever be a
friend to the man he has opposed.
No indeed Such fellows are too
mean to be friends to any body. But
we mean that the opposition itself
may be beneficial to the party meet
ing with it. For opposition leads to
investigation, and investigation is the
fan that winnows the cnaff faom the
grain,

should commend it to clergymen.

ROBERT YERGIN,s SMART GIRLS.

Robert Yergin, a one-armed ex-
Confederate soldier, of Laurens, S. c.,
has daughter of whom he can be very
proud. She has for several winters
acted as engineer, running her faith
er's engine to gin cotton, using her
books even while at the engine for
self-improvement. She has made
money enough to educate herself,
first teaching, then attending school.
She is now in the graduating class of
the Columbia Female College, and
has been elected to write class valedic-
tory address. Miss Yergin is now II
years of age, handsome and intellec-
tual. Miss Yergin's younger sister,
Miss Lilah, IA years of age, now runs
her fathers engine, and promises to
follow in her elder sisters footsteps.

From the Mountains.

For many years l have been troub-
led with scrofulous affection. My
right leg was covered with sores from
the hip to the ankle-some of them
large and painful, running great
deal. | tried everything | could
think of or friends could suggest.
The physicians did what they could,
but brought no permanent relief.
My case was well known in this COM
munity, as well as the fearful suffer-
ings l endured. Last fall, at the sug-
gestion of a friend, | began the use Of
Swift's Specific. 1t produceda change
so apparent that it astOnished every
body, as one ulcer after another dis
appeared, and none were more aston
ished than myself. Six bottles pro-
duced an entire cure. My restora-
ton is due entirely to the use of this
medicine. 1t is the best blood puri-
fier IN the world, and will come near
er doing what is claimed for it than

Out on the Pacific coast many a
man who has thousands OF acres of
wheat lives in shanty that costs
from $50 to SIS. He is simply cult
waiting for a time, until he makes his

is possessed of the unstable DISPOSE
ton, and has as strong a determine
ton to return to the East as John
Chinaman to eventually go back to
the Flowery Kingdom.

A New York paper says hundreds
of men, women and even boys, in
that city are engaged in the "busi-
mes" of collecting old boots and shoes,
which they take to the wall paper
factories, where they receive from
five to fifteen cents per pair. Calf
skin boots bring the best prices, while
cowhides ones are not taken at any
figure. These boots and shoes are first
soaked in several waters to get the
dirt off, and then the nails and threads
are removed and the leather is ground
up into a fine pulp. Then it is press
ed upon a ground OF heavy paper,
which is to be used in the manufac-
ture of embossed leather"

The house or sobbing wren is a
bird peculiar to southwestern Texas.
It's melancholy note is described as
very impressive. 1t begins in a high,
clear key, like the tinkling of silver
bells, and descending gradually from
one chime to another, it suddenly
falters, breaks off, and sobs like a
child-the song dying away in a gasp.
The song is heard only in the open
ing light of dawn, and is repeated but
a few times. The singer is rarely
seen during the day.

Observe the man who treats his en-
ployes generously, literally and fair
ly, and trusts implicitly in their hon
esty, and you see one of natures true
noblemen. But you will also, upon
close inspection, find this generosity
abused and taken advantage of by
many of those upon whom it is be-
slowed, and they are always the men
who are loudest in their denunciation
of the tyranny and heartlessness of
capital, and create the cause of all
other laborer's just complaints. Some
men are out of their element when
they are not being driven.

SELF-INSTRUCTION.

The following excellent advice is
given in letter to the working class
es, which is ascribed to Mr.. NJ. D..
Hill. Franklin says, If you want a
good servant, wait on YOURSELF l
might startle you by saying, If you
want a good education, teach your
selves Nor would the advice, if
understood in too literal a sense, be
sound; but it is true, beyond all
doubt, that every man who has had a
really good education, has done inhn-
itely more for himself than his teach
ers have done for him; and it is
equally true that many of the great
est men that ever lived, have been
self-educated. For my own part,
believe the greatest difficulty in
learning is overcome when the schol-
ar is made aware that, with ardor
and industry, he may do every thing
for himself; and that without these
good qualities no teacher can help
him."

A bill relating to convict labor, in
troduced in the Illinois Legislature,
provides that certain per centage
of the revenue derived by the State
therefrom shall be set aside for the
support OF the families of convicts
who are left in destitute circumstan-
ces. This is a new departure in deal
ing with the difficult question of pris-
on labor, and is certainly a humane
provision. Perhaps many juries would
convict criminals more readily were
they certain that the innocent fami-
lies of such criminals would not be
the real sufferers. 1t is serious
question whether the dependent fam
lilies Of criminals have not a special
claim on the States. In most of the
States, however, they are supported
in the poor houses, or aided out of
the pauper funds, which appears to
be rather complicated.

KEEP OUT OF DEBT.

The best advice that we can offer
is contained in the four short words,
keep out of debt" says popular
writer. This should be taken espe-
cially by the young men. One of the
most fatal steps a young man can
make is to contract in debt. 1t mort
cages his future. 1t means in nearly
every case that he is living beyond
his means. Debt is what ruins so
many of our business men. They
begin with small accounts and as
their business increase they increase
their accounts and finally their
habits of living have become so
expensive that the debts begin to
far exceed the returns of Business.
The result is failure, disappointment
and disgrace. A young man starts
out in life. He is quick, apt and
successful. He gains the confidence
of employers and acquaintance.
He is honest and upright, and mer-
chant had rather have a bill against
him than not. He is fattered by
the confluence that is reposed in him.
He buys fine things, goes in good So
ciety, and from a frugal style of liv-
ing he branches out into an expen-
sive style. At first his debts were
small and he found no trouble in
meeting them. But they have now
become burden, and to straighten
things out necessitates a vigorous
struggle. Self denial comes harder
than it once did, and the debt be-
comes matter of worry that will not
be quoted. If sickness comes, in
stead of having fund to draw on,
there is deficiency that each days
illness makes larger and more diff
cult to wipe out. Things have chang
ed since long ago. Then it was Gus
tomary for the young man to prac-
tice self-denial in his youth, to work
hard, gain competency and enjoy
leisure beyond the line which di-
vides youth from old age. Now it
seems that the young man works on
a different principal-his aim is to
enjoy the sweets of life at once and
save the labor and self-denial for a
future day. There is enough of
pleasure-healthy, joyous pleasure
that comes with legitimate and sue
cessful work so that young people
can afford to live slower for a few
years that they may be better able to
enjoy the years that fellow.
Thrift is stranger to these times.
The tendency is in an opposite di-
rection. Debt contracting is the
rule, not the exception. Nothing
should be more carefully avoided by
young people. Debt lisa great curse.
1t brings no comfort. On the other
hano it is accompanied by worry and
anxiety. The young man who keeps
out of debt and secures balance
on the other side of the ledger, not
only forms correct habits but he gains
satisfied peace of mind that connot
be secured in any other way and he
stands armed and ready tor an en-
Urgency when it comes-Ex.

Nature rewards the agriculturist
precisely in proportion to the efforts
he puts forth to merit her favors. If
he puts the soil in a mechanical con-
dition favorable to the circulation of
air among its particles, the effects of
drouth are less felt, and the soil is in
better condition to impart the nour-
ishment held therein to growing
crops.
