The dawn light heeds the call OF day.
Hope wrcathes the prison bars,
Dream angels watch where children pray
Aud twilight woes the stars.
The river seeks the silvery foam,
Sea ripples kiss the sand,
And evening sails fiy swiftly home
To greet bcckoniug hand.
The wind and sea blend In psalm,
Bird answers unto bird,
Song blossoms drop from evening palm,
BY angel pinions stirred.
And vet, dear one, this happy thought
Peryaies the song sing.
Like some sweet bcrediction caught
From some bright scraph's wing.
The strongest ties that nature knows,
care not what they be-,
Are but n uaught compared with those
Which bind my heart To thee

The following is from "Dlsease
Germs and How TO Combat Them" by
Lucius Pitkin, in The Century, ac-
companied by frontispiece portrait
of Pasteur.
First. Corrosive sublimate tmercur-
ic chloride). sulphate of copper, and
chloride Of lime are among our best
disinfectants, the first two being poi
sonous. At wholesale drug houses In
New York single pounds can be OBJ
tanned. mercuric chloride costing sew
enty-hve cents, the Others ten cents "A
pound
Second. A quarter Of pound Of
corrosive sublimate and pound of
sulphate of copper in one gallon of
water makes concentrated solution
TO keep in stock. We will refer to IL
as solution A."
Third. For ordinary disinfecting
solution add half pint Of solution
a" 10 gallon of water. This,
while costing less than cent and a
half per gallon. is good strength for
general use. Use in about equal guam
tity In disinfecting choleraic or ty-
phoid fever excreta.
Fourth A four per cent. solution Of
good chloride OF lime or quarter of a
pint of solution A" to gallon Of
water is used 10 wash wood work
doors. and wooden furniture, after
fumiga;ion and ventilation.
Fiffh. For fumigating with sulphur,
three or four pounds should be used
to every thousand cubic feet air space.
Burn In an old tin basin floating in a
tub of water; keep room closed twelve
hours, TO allow the fumes TO penetrate
all cracks. Then open window from
the outside and allow fumes to escape
into air.
Sirth. Soak sheets, etc, in chloride
Of lime solution. wiring out, and boil.
Serenth. Cesspools. etc, should be
well covered on top with mixture Of
chloride of lime with ten parts OF dry
sand.
Eighth. Isolate the patient in an
upper room from which curtains, car
pets. and stuffed furniture have been
removed.
Ninth. The solution Of mercuric
chloride must not be placed in metal
vessels, since the mercury would plate
them.

Settled Him.

A rich old man, who. having made
fortune In vulgar trade. and who. as
he desired TO enter society. wanted to
become accomplished. advertised for n
man TO read 10 him. From among the
many applicants young man was Sc
lected. The old millionaire was pleas
cd with his unassuming manners.
Il want YOU" he said. ''Read to me.
and IL in the future l can aid you. l
will do So"
The young man read to him. He
read history. typography aud books of
travel.
One day the young man said:
Would you not like, for refresh
ment. to hear novelp"
Yes, certainly. The cultivated man
must know something of fiction. Go
fetch novel and read IL 20 me-.
The young man brought book, sat
down aud began TO read. At first the
old man paid but little attention. but
after awhile he began TO lift his head
with extreme interest; and finally tears
gushed from his eyes The young man
when he left the old fellow was filled
with strang happiness. He went to
his room and clasped his hands In &C.
static thankfuIness. He had written the
book which had caused the old man to
exhibit such strong emotion. Ii had
fallen dead from the press. At last his
hour had come. The millionaire would
bless him. He would say. Select your
publisher. and he shall bring out your
books. He shall advertise them. aud
they shall become great" Would

reader ionged for daylight's glittering
promised "At last" he unused. shall
my sun.arlse. At last can l turn my
back upon people who have scotfed at
me, and with tender arms embrace the
pure eyed goddess OF enduring fame"
The time for the reading came. Tho
old man sat with his feet on n cushion.
The young man entered softly.

The Noon Lnnch.

Perhaps the doctor Is right who says
that a great portion OF the sickness In
this country Is caused by the unpleas-
ant habit OF eating too rapidly. II Is
interesting To watch the average citizen
when he goes into restaurant for his
dinner lie doesn't seem to regard
the meal with any degree OF fondncss.
but acts rs though the eating OF II Is
one OF those dsagreeable duties which
confront man ~ every step on tho
highway OF life. He attacks the meat
savagely. and you can hear his knife
and fork rattle furlong away. He
shovels the food into his mouth rs "A
hired man shovels corn into n Smelling
machine, and swallows II without
chewing It. He pours down lot of
lce-water when the meat Is consumed.
with frantic endeavor TO make IL as
indigestible ms possible. and when the
last sad rites are over he rushcs TO the
cashiers desk and settles with an ex.
preston OF relief mantling his radiant
countenance like a rainbow after a
storm. The stern physician says that
people should eat very slowly, and
while away the time between bites by
pleasant conversation about the wealth,
or. the crops or any other cheerful
subject In this way the DAYS OF tho
years OF their pilgrimage may be- many.

The chiIdrea.

There Is no denyingthe fact that
American young folk are about
the brightest in the world.
Pretty, precocious, and self-conhdent
IL would be hard TO find their equals
for what we call 'cuteness."
But, though their cleverness is un.
questioned, 1t must be admitted that
many of them are anything but pat
terms Of propriety, particularly In the
domestic circle.
Indeed, for disrespect to parents and
elders generally, our young people, or
at least MANY of them, are a byword
and reproach Ii Is melancholy
but true" fact that children's
manners are at low average in this
country.
I And the worst of il is that United
States youngsters commit their atroc-
tiles OF impoliteness and selfshness
with such good grace.
They actually patronize their par
ents. What is more, their parents
"stand It."
And that's where all the trouble
lies--with the parents. And especially
know where to draw the line between
judicious and injudicious kindness
Children are encouraged TO be
smart and irrevolent. Their "cute"
sayings are quoted before them, and
their self-importance battered until
they become nuisances to everybody,
and most OF all TO those who love
them most--their mothers. 1t is bad
enough for fond father TO know that
his first born playfully refers to him
as '-the guv'nor" or the "boss"; but
how sharper than a serpent's tooth for
doting matron TO hear her darling
coolly call her 1.-The old woman"
Yet whom she has to blame but her
self? The mother who allows child to
speak rudely or unexpectedly to her
second time deserves all the trouble
that comes OF It.
Children are, like monkeys, natural
mimics. They do as they see others
do. The best safeguards against rude
ness and disrespect are courtesy and
kindness. Let the little ones live In
perpetual atmosphere Of politeness.
Let them be taught IL there be any
choice, their best manners are TO be
kept for home consumption and their
surplus of politeness laid by for
strangers. But there need be no ap-
prehension on that score. A boy who
is considerable for his mother and sis
ters Is sure to be considerable for others.
Whoever sees q young man thought
ful for women and children, always on
the lookout TO do kindness to the
old, the sick, the weak. but thinks
"Ahi he had a good mother"
And tie converse is true. A badly
brought up and boorish boy is bound
to reflect discredit on The one who bred
him. Many good woman makes a
bad mother. Her love makes her
wrong both herself and her child The
victims of q mistaken kindness are
legion. and the sad thing is that the
children Of such mothers. while they
love. frequently live to half desbase
their weakness. Boston Globe.

GRANTED By KING GEORGE.
An Interesting Trial Before Judge hershaw
in Columbia.

Especial to the News and Courier.
COLUMBIA, June l.-tor the past
four days Judge kershaw has been
hearing an interesting case III cham-
bers.
George III granted to a body of Lu-
therans tract ofonc hundred acres OF
land in the fertile "Dutch Fork" of
Lexington County, upon which a
church and school house were to be
erected.
The house of worship (St John's
church} was built and for about half a
century there was unity and peace in
the flock that gathered at the church
each Sabbath; but about forty years
ago discord arose in the congregation
and it was divided into two factions OF
nearly equal strength. Each OF these
! claimed the church property and neither
would worship with the other. An
arrangement was finally arrived at by
! which the church would he used on
alternate Sundays by the two sections
of the divided congregation. The key
! Of the church was always left at GER
! tain convenient house where the SEX
tons of the two factions could get it
when their Sunday for church worship
came around.
The plan was continued until abouta
year ago, when one party took exclusive
possession OF the key and refused to
''divide time The faction thus shut
out are the plaintiffs, while those who
hold the church are the defendants.
The former are represented by Judge
Melton and Capt. W. y. Clark, and the
latter by Gen. Ioumans, Major H: a.
Meetzc and; Mr.. G.. NJ. Etird. Both sides
claim the property, which is quite
valuable The argument was concluded
to-day and the Judge took the papers
for consideration.
