MORE TRUE TIL IN ELEGANT.

Rev. Sam Jones is the name of a new
Evangelist who is meeting with remark
able success in the South. He is from
Georgia, and his peculiar style seems to
have great effect on the people with
whom he labors. He has concluded a
series of revival meetings at Nashville,
Tenn, at which a great number were
converted. His style is very quaint and
'lirect, and makes one think of that
lrader of the opposing hosts, Bob Inger-
soil. Here are few of his aphorisms:
"Talk about an honest man starving
to death; they won't starve. God will
feed an honest man if he has to put the
angels on half rations."

whitewash on rascal. I'd rather have
to learn my A, b, C in heaven than to
know Greek in hell.

A SLJW ROY.

The German school teacher is very
poorly paid fer his wearisome work Of
imparting wisdom 10 his pupils, if many
of the pupils are like the one described
in the following dialogue.
The boy found it difficult to under.
stand simple arithmetic:
Teacher-"Suppose Fritz, you have a
stocking on one foot, and you put an,
other stocking on the other foot"
FRITZ never wear no stockings.
Teacher--Suppose your father has one
pig in pen, and he buys another pig
and puts it in the pen, how many pigs
will there be in the penp"
Fritz-Dad don't keep no pigs"
The teacher blew heavy sigh frcn
his tired lips; wiped the rerspiratior
from his scholastic brow, and went al
it again with renewed courage.
Suppose, Fritz, you have one jacket,
and at Christmas your father makes you
a present of another jacket, how manS
jackets will you have then?"
Fritz-"He aims that kind of father.
He never gives me nothing for Christ.
mas"
Teacher-"Suppose your mother gives
you one apple, and you have one already,
what will you have then?"
Fritz-Stomachache. Our apples are
cooking apples"
The teacher was not the man to be
discouraged by trifes. He began to sus-
pect that Fritz was not well up in arith-
metic, but he resolved to make one more
effort, so he said:
Fritz, if poor little beggar boy has
cake, and you give him one more cake,
how many will he have2'
Fritz-"I dunno, eat my own cakes. "
Then the teacher told the children to
go out and play.

Orlv Fractions Of Lives.

leet to take the cOmmonest precautions

maturity that kills, and maturity implies
growth. a slight indisposition is usual

Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters know it
to be eilicacious in chronic cases of dis

FARMERS COLUMN
Famous Farms for Freeamans. 3.

Visitors TO Old Point Comfort For

very pleasantly in inspecting the gounds
and buildings Of the well-known Hamp

are alike educated. Attached to it is q
farm Of three hundred and fifty acres,
presented by Mrs Hemenway,of Boston,
and enlarged by additional purchase, to
over five hundred acres. This farm lies
four miles from the Home School
Buildings, on Hampton Road, and like
the Home Farm, adjacent to the build
ing, lis under the care of Mr.. Albert Howe.
On the home farm there is a daily
detail of nine colored, and six Indian
boys, except on Mondays, when half Of
the entire force for farm work is out,
giving an average of day and half of
labor TO each one weekly. Eight mixers
and drivers are employed all day, and

gallons of milk daily, of which about
half is at home, ard the rest is sold at
Fortress Monroe, and the Hygela Hotel
For the third year one hundred and
forty tons of cnsilage have been put up
with very good results; it is given to the
cattle morning and night, at the rate of
a bushcl feed, mixed with four quarts
of bran; feed of clover hay is given in
the middle Of the day. Last year forty
tons Of clover hay and of orchard grass
were raised, chiefly for twenty-three
horses and mules (of which four are
boarders, and four are used for driving)
on the place. A thorons hbred Morgan
and Percheron horse are kept doing
farm work most of the time. The past
winter, fifteen tons Of PORK were
slaughtered. There are on hand one
hundred and twenty-five young hogs.
Essex and Berkshire crossed with

The Hemenway Fam, four miles dis

acres of good land for stock and grain
nurposes.it is cultivated by ten students,
who work during the day and study
evenings. The ter boys go to the
Normal School after year at the Hem
