I Idifered from his tenets, but I learned

A Wonderful Well.

One of the most remarkable of the
wonderful things of which Pittsburg
boasts, is the combination well that has
been struck at the cracker factory of s.
s.. Marvin & Co. It produces at one
and the same time cold water as sweet as
the dew that falls from heaven, salt water
as briny as old oceans waves, and a flow
of gas that when ignited illuminates the
entire surroundings. The we'll was drilled
some time ago, Mr.. Marvin's idea being
to get supply of pure cold water for
use In his bakery in the summer and
during flood times, when the city water
is not desirable. At one hundred feet
the fresh water was struck, and at two
hundred feet the salt water and gas were
found. Two castings were inserted, one
engine is started and the gas lighted,
for the sslt water and gas, the other for
the fresh water; and now, when the
spectators behold the wonderful sight of
fresh water, salt water and fire all coming
cut of one we'll at the same time.

Marry a Gentleman.

A writer in Women at Work advises
girls, if they would be happy in married
life, to marry gentleman. He thus
defines what he means by the term:
A true gentleman is generous and un-
selfish. he regards another's happiness
and welfare as we'll as his own. You
will see the trait running through all
his actions. A man who is 8 bear at
home among his sisters, and discourteous
to his mother, is just the man to avoid
when you come 10 the great question
which is to be answered yes or no.
A man may be ever,so rustic in his
early surroundings, if he is true gentle
man he will not bring a blush to your
cheek in any society by his absurd bo.
havior.
There is an instructive politeness inhe-
rent in such q character, which every.
where commands respect, and makes it's
owner pass for what he is-one of ma
ture's noblemen.
Do not despair, girls; there are such
men still in the world. You need not
all die old maids. But wait until the
princes pass by. No harm in delay.
You will not be apt to find him in the
ball. room, and I know he will never be
seen walking up from the liquor aaloon
Nor is he a champion billiard player.
He has not had time to become q
"champion," for he has had too much
honest, earnest work to do in the world
I have always observed that the 'cham.
pions" we're seldom good for much else
Be very wary in choosing, girls, wher
so much is at stake. Do not mistake s
passing fancy for undying love. Marry.
! ing in haste rarely ends we'll,

The Rome Tribune tells at length
and with pardonable pride of the success
attending the efforts of MI. D. q. Shelton,
a young farmer Of Floyd County, Ga,
residing but few miles from Rome. It
is worthy Of ofpublication. as an example
and incentive, outside Of Georgia. Mr..
Shelton went from South Carolina to
Floyd County thirteen years ago, when
but II years old, and started farming 81
100 in debt, without experience and
without money. Two years ago he had
paid every dollar Of his debt, and had
purchased and paid for 1900 additional
acres Of excellent land, all out of the
proceeds and profits of his farm, and the
whole proceeds of this years staple crop
stands to his credit in the bank. Mr..
Shelton has lived out from the beginning
the plain old policy of making his pro.
visions at home, and raising his cotton
exclusively as surplus crop. 1t has
required courage and endurance and
fidelity to maintain this policy, but the
result in Mr.. Shelton's case has amply
justified the sacrifice. At the recent
exposition at Rome Mr.. Shelton made
the finest single exhibit ever made by q
private farmer in the State. His six.
months.old pigs took the premium above
all competitors, and when he killed them
the other day, at months and IL days
old, they averaged 28S pounds net, break
ing the Southern record ofS months pigs.
= According to the Atlanta Gnstitu.
t;on, an Alabama man charged with
stealing a calf, made the following
statement: "I was always tesched to
be honest, an most always have been,
but when I seed that calf I cayed.
T never wanted a calf 80 bad in all my
life, an you all know that when q man
wants calfhe wants him." The jury
returned tho following verdict: "We,
this Jury, air satisfied that Steve stold the
calf, but as the feller that owned the
animal is considerable Of s!ouch, we
agree to clear Steve an male the slouch
pay the costs"
