"A harmonious color gives a feeling of
repose in the home" says an art journal,
but we defy all the artistic aesthetics under
the canopy TO give feeling of repOSe TO a

If there is anything that man is prOuder
OF than the first baby that comes to adom
his home, ii is the remembrance of the time
when he screwed up his courage to say TO

Young Father (behind the paper)-"Ies,

to be a boy"

Improving The Rusf.

The latest method of making a rounded
bust out of thin one is also terrible pro-
cess. Three months are consumed i'm this
extraordinary enterprise. The diet and eX-
ercise regime are good enough. But the
''cupping'' process is enough to make a
dead woman rise from her coffin-unless
she is too dead. The advocate of the cup
goes to her surgeon" where she pays
a good-sized fee for the blessing. The
cup is a modified form of an air
pump, with a powerful suck to it, The
cup is put TO a shallow or hollow i'm the
body or face, and the muscles, flesh. blood
veins, and (seemingly) the bones, too, are
drawn out of their place in hurry. The
suction is so severe as TO cause the idiot
under treatment to yell with agony, while
the big tears tell the well-concealed suffer
ing which is heroically borne. This process
either plumps out the skinny applicant OF
kills her ambition with its pains.

SlVe 10 him what the heart most Graves,

Inc manners which do most engage,
The poets fire, the painters art,

Or give him of all things to eat,
The ripe, the luscious, sour or sweet,
And add to these flesh, fish or fowl,
Then listen and you'll hear him growl-
For mans a kicker.
Give to him sorrow, grief and care,
The sorest crosses man may bear,
The toughest paths, the blacklist woe,
a heaven in which there is no bow
Of promise, and in which the clouds
Enfold the light like funeral shrouds;
Let sickness, death and eyeryill
Which makes earth bitter lay their chill
Cold hands upon him. Let his life
Be one amending hideous strife,
a wilderness where jackals howl
It's all the same. You'll hear him growl-
For mans a kicker.

Women at the Fail of X hartoum.

London Daily News.
Women and children were robbed of their
jewels of gold and jewels of silver, of their
bracelets, necklaces of precious stones, and
carried off to be sold TO the Bishareen mer-
chants as slaves. Yes, and white women,
too-Egyptians and Circassians who wore
the burke over their faces. the rabtab and
the turban, and the kurs on their heads
ladies clad in silk and satin gibbehS and
saltahS. Mother and daughter alike were
dragged OFF from their homes of comfort.
These were widows, wives and daughters
of Egyptian officers some of whom had
been killed with Hicks Pasha; wives and
children of Egyptian merchants formerly
rich, owning ships and mills, gardens and
shops. These were sold afterward, some
for $40 thalerieS or more, some for go,
according to age and good looks. And the
poor black women already slaves and their
children were taken off, too. These were
sold, too, for 100, so or 20 thaleries. Their
husbands and masters were slain before
their eyes. and yet hear it said there was
no massacre at the taking of Khartoum!

Don't Agree With the President.

CHICAGO, June 1l.-Senator Harris Of
Tennessee, in an interview to-day, SAID
he was opposed to "this civil service"
He added; II was opposed to the law
creating the Commission, and have never
seen anything to cause me to change my
views, l regard it as a humbug, calcu.
lated to do more mischief than good. l
am opposed to the Commission; that is,
I don't think that the three Commission :
ers should have the authority to name
the appointees of certain classes of
clerkships under the government; but.
on the contrary, I hold that the heads OF
the departments, the men who are most
interested in the successful administra-
ton of the departments, should have the
rightto select their own subordinates. l
don't think it follows that because an
applicant for clerkship passed sue.
cessful examination on subjects that are
most foreign to the scope of his official
duties, that he will make better or as
good a clerk as one who is deficient in
the classics and higher mathematics, but
who writes good hand, is intelligent,
and has had some experience In clerical
work. I think good, efficient men should
be retained, and there are numerous
papers on file in the departments with
my name signed to them protesting
against the removal of Republican
clerks whom knew to be efficient and
in every way desirable. President
Cleveland and I do not agree on the civil
service LAWS. He is an earnest advocate !;
in fact, 1 might say he is an ultra civil
service reformer."

Tic Collectorship Fight.

Mr.. Dibble's promised statement
about Mayor Courtenay was printed IN
three columns of the Me,cs and Courier.
The gist of it is that Captain Courtenay
first supported Mr.. Mowry, then aban.
doued him and endorsed Mr.. Walker,
and within few days telegraphed the
President warmly supporting B: 4;
Riordan for san honorable position" :"
The Ne,us and Courier editorially belit-
ties Mr.. Dibble's card and declares that
so far as Mr.. Riordan is concerned, Cap
tain Courteuay did not know he was an
applicant for the collectcrship and sup.
posed he was trying to be appointed
consul somewhere. Mr.. Dibble's state
ment is less violent in tone than his first
card, recently published, but charges
Mayor Courtenay with falsehood, slander
and bad faith and declares that his
changes of position were for the purpose
of getting on the strong side and making
people believe that he had secured the
appointment for whoever should get it.
Mayor Courtenay responds sharply to
Mr.. Dibble's denunciation of him. he
defends himself from the charge OF de-
serting candidates for the collectorship
and taking up others by showing that
the only change he made WAS from
Mowry 10 Walker, he having endorsed
Mowry before Walker was announced
and before he knew of Mowry's alleged
crooked transactions. He attacks Mr..
Dibble for making and using without
notice memorandum of a private social
conversation, and for representing to the
President that the charges against Mowry
were groundless, when he had not lnves'
tigated them, and was confronted by
Mowry's own sworn statement.

An Ethiopian Changing his Color.

Berry Armstrong, aged 81 years, and
who formerly belonged to MIR. Obediah
Shirley, of this County, was in our Office
on Saturday last for our inspection, hav.
ing come by request, as he does not seem
to care to make display Of himself, nor
to be any ways proud of his changed
color. He informed us that during last
june white spots commenced coming
first on his legs, and then all over his
body, neck and face, until now he is,
with the exception of few spots around
his nose, mouth, eyes, and the rim of his
ears, as white as most white men, and it
seems that his eyes have also changed,
as they correspond with his color. His
hair and beard still has the appearance
of the negro, but is getting very grey.
He says he never had but little sickness
in his life, nor felt any strange effects
while the change of color was going on,
and that he did nothing to produce or
assist the change, but has watched it
with scrutinizing eye, and cannot give
the least idea of the cause, as he never
prayed for the change, or either desired
it, and seems to suffer no tneaolness about
it, He says he is as nearly as active and
spfightly as he was at 81 years old, and
his appearance indicates that he will
live for several years to come. He has
always been considered by those who
owned him and have known him, TO be
an upright, truthful and honest negro,
and every one around Honea Path is
prepared to vouch for the wonderful
change, and the trhthfalhess of this
statement. Let those who donot believe,
come and see for. i:themselves.--Honea
Path Pldindsdter. a.

Cremation in Berkeley.

The Berkeley Gazette says: "Henry
Laurens, whose ashes are buried at
Mefkin plantation, on the Cooper River,
in Berkeley County, was cremated. By
his will his body was To be Wrapped In
twelve yards of tow cloth, and to be
burned until it was entirely consumed.
This request was literally complied with
in the presence of many of his friends.
His ashes were then collected and, being
deposited in an urn; were placed in the
family sepulchre. w. N. Mitchell, who
lived at Fairfield" plantation, haaf
Broughton Swamp, was also cremated.
Many years before his death, which oc-
Cured in 1926, he purchased his own
coffin, which was of iron, and kept it by
him. After his death, according to the
instructions contained in his will, his
body was put in this coffin and was con-
sumed to ashes in it. 1t was then prop.
erly secured and locked and the key
thrown into the middle of Cooper River.
There was another provision in his will
that his remains we're not to be buried,
but to be placed somewhere above stouna
in the woods; Oh two brick piles, with
brick enclosures around it. This wish
was complied with. His executors
placed his coffin in the pine land near
his former residence, about two miles
west of the twenty.eight mile stone on
the Monck's Corner road, where it may
be seen at the present day."

ATLANTA, June 1.-THE Georgia
Temperance Convention concluded its
session yesterday. Reports we're made
from all parts of the State, indicating the
rapid growth Of sentiment IN favor Of
prohibition and the rising enthusiasm Of
the masses for temperance. Resolutions
were adopted petitioning the Legislature
to pass general local option law at its
session next month, SO that in every
County in the State there can Pc an
election on prohibition. OF one hundred
aud thirty. eight Counties in Georgia
twenty have restricted the sale of liquor
and eighty have absolutely prohibited 1t.
It is thought that more than half Of the
thirty.eight Counties where the sale Of
liqnors is now unrestricted will be carri.
ed for prohibition if the Legislature pass.

declare that temperance must not be
mixed with politics, and in the election
for members for the State ct large Of the
executive Committee two Democrats and
two Republicans we're chosen. There
we're several negro delegates in the Con-
vention, and resolutions were passed to
thoroughly organize the temperance
movement among the negroes through.
ont the State. The Convention was the
largest and most representative body of
the kind ever held in Georgia. It ad.

the evening the members in body at
