An Answer to INQUIRIES.


So many letters of inquiry have been re-
ceived during the past week relative to letter
from one of our little folks, that it will not be
amiss to answer these inquiries through this
department. A few weeks ago there appeared
In the childfcn's column letter from little
boy who is cripple, and a great sufferer,
giving in his childish words an account OF his
condition. The letter was written as child
would write; he had no pets, could not walk,
life held nothing bright, and SO he wrote only
OF his sufforings, and said: sometimes 1
pray for death, and when L suffer most try to
sing What a Friend 1 Have In Jesus" In
eidentaly at the close of his letter he men
toned that they were very poor or his parents
would have taken him to the Surgical insti-
tute in Atlanta. This letter it seems touched
the heartsof many good people, and physi-
clan from Mississippi wrote asking from his
parents a full account of the case, intending to
help him, and many Others have responded.
Thinking it advisable to know certainly the
condition of the family, l wrote to the post
master for information the reply was that the
family were very poor and the boy confirmed
cripple and great sufferer, and any assistance
would be of great benefit to them. l make
this statement of the case for the benefit of
those asking information, as it is impossible to
answer all the letters privately that have come
pouring in upon me. The case is sad one,
and evidently it would be q charity to send the
boy books, papers, or anything to cheer his
lonely hours. have received several touch
ing letters from the little fellow and am sure
10 has grateful heart. Those who wish to
help him in any way can send direct to the adj
dress give, as many have, and he acknowl-
edges to me the receipt Of many dimes, etc.,
from the children, and ask me to publish their
names, but we have not space for that. The
address is Willard Ford, Wills, DeKalb

A Pretty Girl and Her Pretty Pets.

From the New York Sun.
The hunming birds belonging to pretty New
York society girl build their nests in the lace cur
teins and have raised little families in the paror.
There are plants for them to fly about in, and every
day the florist sends basket of flowers to extract
the honey from. They are like little rainbows fly
ing about in the room, and they light ON the head
of their dainty mistress with perfect freedom. She
seems to have an affinity for the feathered tribe.
Outside her chamLer window Is box for a dove
who always sleeps there at night and pecks at the
window pane when he wants to come in. He has
perfect freedom, but chooses to remain in the house
many hours i'll the course Of the day. This same
young lady comes in TO greet visitor with canary
poised lightly on her head and fluffy bullfinch
hopping along after her The latter is very jealous
of the canary and viii peck him and persecute him
whenever he gets chance.

Acould weep when think how mans wild love

my angel, my love-, my own

To cash your checks for you. Don't forget
To send me my fannels.-J'"
She dropped tear as she took her pen
Yet these were the words she wrote:
'Dear hubby, told you you'd get your death
Without your big overcoat.
"The man for the carpets came today,

Dear mother arrived last night-to stay
And we're doing up jelly Ounce.

Iheard q lady once remark that "most OF
the sermons she heard was like water poured
on a grindstone-just ran off again" She was
asked by gentleman present, "if it enabled
her to sharpen the AK" Did you ever think
of it ? it is not what we remember of q sermon,
but what we do under its influence. We may
have it all in memory as q miser has the gold
In his strong box, bat of what service? Tho
sun sends it's hot and bright rays on the earth.
If at night you should dig down, would you
expect to find these rays of light imprisoned?
OF eoursenot but you would find aswelling seed
here tiny blade of grass there. q little flower
}ust peeping out. That was the business of
the sunlght-to witty these seeds. 1t is not
what we hear or what we remember that is of
service, but what we use. If the sermon we
hear will only bring forth fruit" that is all
that is necessary. An elegant and gifted
preacher will draw big crowd, his church
will be full every Sabbath and his preaching
very popular, but often the man Of less educa-
sion and TO the larger number, tiresome,
prosy teacher, has church that shows mere
spirituality and good works; his hearers do
more then listen; they use the words and
"bring forth fruit" some hundred fold.
