False Tenderness.
Cohgregationalist.)

Coagregationalist.)
The danger of false tenderness in
the training Of children was finely
illustrated at one time in the fol-
loving manner:
A person who was greatly interS
ested in entomology secured at
great pains fine species of cmpe-
ror moth in the larva state Day
by day he watched the little Great
ure as he wove about him his co
coon, which is very singular in
shape much resembling a flask.
Presently the time drew near for
it to emerge from its wrappings and
spread its large wings of exceeding
beauty. On reaching the narrow
aperture of the neck of the flask
the pity of the person watching it
was so awakened to see the strug-
gle necessary to get through that
he cut the cords, thus making the
passage easier. But alas F! his false
tenderness destroyed all the bril-.
liant colors for which this moth is
noted. The severe pressure was
the very thing needed to cause the
flow of fluids which create the mar,
velous hues. Its wings were small,
dull in color, and the whole devel>
opment was imperfect.
How often we see a result in
character when parents, thinking
to help a child over some hard
place, rob him of strength of pur,
pose an | other qualities essential
to the highest attachments IN men,
tai and spiritual life.

There is but one duty for every
democrat-stand by the party.
Democratic success means honest
government, and it is its only
guarantee. Democratic success
means the unity of the sections
and the final burial of the bloody
shirt policy which has so long been
used by the republicans to array
brothers against each other. Demo
cratic success means pure governs
ment; it means more than all these
it means national prosperity and
harmony and good feeling between
the states.- Atlanta AConstitu-

The Miserable Clans Gathering.

A frenGied attempt will he made
to cut down the Democratic majors
ity in Georgia.
Atlanta special to Columbus Enquirer
SUM-
There will be four electoral tick
cts in the field in Georgia this fall
at the presidential election. The
democrats and republicans will put
out tickets as usual, and they will
be augmented by full ticket for
the prohibition candidate for pres
ident, Gen. Clinton B. Fiske. The
fourth t;cker to be put in the field
will be the Union labor ticket. The
nominee tor president on this tick
ct is Andrew J. Streeter Of Illinois,
prominent farmers alliance man.
Streeter made a speech before the
farmers convention here last year
and created a sensation by attack
ing the democratic party, which
was not relished BY the members of |
the convention. The Union Labor
club of this city has taken Street |
er's candidacy as far as Georgia is
concerned into their hands and pro-
pose to do what they can for him
of course he will poll only few
hundred votes. most Of which At /
lanta will furnish. The democratic /.
majority in Georgia will be large OF
course, but these new tickets will |
be put out only with view of cuts
ting down the majority as much as
possible. A prominent republican
sums up the vote in this style:
Cleveland and Thurman will of
course poll a .arge vote, but we
hope to cut down the democratic
majority as much as possible. You
know, said this republican, that
Tiiden carried Georgia BY 80, 900;
Hancock carried it by something
over 10000; Cleveland carried it
by about 35, 900, and so you see it
it is decreasing every year. Our
plan is, and it meets with encour-
agement of the leaders Of the party,
to do all we can to keep up this de,
crease. IF we car cut it down to
$4,000 majority this year it will
show that the democratic party is
on the wane in Georgia. While
we republicans will support our
ticket heartily, we can of course
not hope to do anything like carry
ing the state. Our only mission
will therefore be toreduce the ma
iority as much as possible. TO do
this we will encourage Sam Small
in his good work for our party, and
also do all we can to aid the Union
Labor club in putting out full
electoral ticket. We have hopes,
too, that the mild support of Ger
tain protective papers for Cleve>
land will have its effect" The above
may sound idle, but the speaker
was prominent republican and a
man who was in a position to speak
for his party.

WISE WORDS.

We are no longer happy so soon as we
wish to be happier.
Every temptation is great or small ac-
cording as the man is.
The consciousness of duty performed
gives us music at midnight.
If we're right we cau't be hurt by the
truth, and if we amt right we ought to
be hurt righteously.
1t is better to have thorns in the flesh
with grace to endure them, than to have
no thorns and no grace.
True popularity is not popularity
which is followed after, but the popu-
larity which follows after.
One of the most important rules OF
the science of manners is an absolute
silence in regard to yourself.
The spirits are sometimes allowed te
fall into an affiiction to preserve them
from falling in with temptation.
No human being can come into this
world without increasing or diminishing
the sum total of human happiness, not
only of the present, but of every subse'
qucnt age of humanity.
The pleasures of the world are very
deceitful. They promise more than they
give; they trouble us in seeking them !;
they do not satisfy us when possessing
them, and they make us despair when
losing them.

A Night in q Tree.

G. II. Wilkins and Edward Somers
lived in the White camp, San Antonia
canyon. Returning to their home about
the time of the midnight that was the
dividing line between the 18th and goth
of last month, they were very disagree
ably surprised to see by the light of their
lanterns mountain lion in the act of
going under the building. Having no
arms with them, and knowing that the
floor of their domicile was a flimsy
affair, and could easily be torn to pieces
by the dangerous animal, they consid-
cred tree near by their only refuge, and
upon such consideration they climbed
the tree with that dexterity which fre-
gently accompanies danger. Comfort
ably ensconced among the boughs, they
spent the night waiting for daylight.
1t came, but it placed the occupants of
the tree in even more dangerous pre-
dicament than before. The lion still
possessed the premises, and to descend
would place those who might lniudi-
ciously attempt descent in danger of be-
ing eaten bodily. At about noon Colonel
Hopkins, Dave Wixom, Mrs. Van Give
and Miss Eva Goodrich appeared on the
scene in carriage. When informed by
the dwellers among the branches of the
state of affairs Mr.. Wixom killed the
lion with ball from rifle and an
nounced that the gentlemen might de-
scend in safety, Ed. Huch is now tan
ming the hide of the animal, which will
be presented to gentleman well known
in this city.-SGn BernardinO Courier.

Endurance of the japanese,

When one rejects that there is never
a fire which would fill half bushel
measure; that the japanese wear no
woolen garments, and only sandals or
clogs on their feet; that the Winters are
cold enough to make ice two or three
inches thick, and the ground is often
white with snow, one wonders how they
live, writes a correspondent from Japan
to the Chicago Null. There seems to be
something peculiar in the physical make
up of the japanese, as well as in their
plants, which enables them to endure
safely great cold. l am told that plants
which in America are killed by Autumn
frosts here live and bloom in the midst
of snow, and when the thermometer has
gone much below the freezing Eoiat
Certainly the people have wonderful
powers of endurance if their sensations
ure as ours are
Every japanese, high or low, takes his
hot bath every night. He jumps into a
vat of water heated from 100 to 115 de-
grees and enjoys the boil, and stands fer
hours up to hls waist in cold, mountain
torrents, and it is said will break the ice
in Winter and work up to his neck in
immersion, and seems to feel no i'll effects
from it. He is certainly a wonderful
animal, and chronological data must yet
be furnished to convince me that he is
not indigenous to the soil he lives on.

The Origin of Beer.

Ale was the sole title of malt liquor
until the reign of Henry VIII, up to
which time the employment of hops as
an ingredient in the beverage was un-
known in England. In the year 1924,
or thereabouts, the use of hops was intro
duced from Germany, and to distinguish
the new kind of malt liquor from the old,
the German name bier was adopted, and,
with an infinitesimal change of spelling,
became part of our language. Germany,
in truth, is the native land of beer, and
nowhere in the world is it treated with
such special honor. In Germany the
drinking of beer is not, as with us, a
mere means of carnal refreshment, but,
particularly among the students of the
universities, is elevated to the dignity of
cult, familiarity with whose ritual is
deemed an essential branch of a liberal
education. Co nhiH
