turned over frill TO the neck and sleeves of
dress waists, also to form the large jabot or
cravat now in vogue down the upper part Of
the front of the dress
Crimping instead Of huting is used by
French modistes for the frills on dresses that
have accordion plated skirts.
Shirred ribbon passed around the neck out
side the collar Of the dress gives a pretty fin
ish to plain gown, and is a good plan for
renewing or concealing partly worn collar.
For this purpose take gros grain ribbon two
and half inches wide, the color of the dress
or of its trimming; then put seven rows of
gathers very near together along the middle,
leaving II little rufie at top and bottom.
Have this collar Tapped TO the left side and
fastened with a small bow. Ribbon with a
satin edge or corded edge is most used.
Wristbands can be made the same way.
An economical and dreSSy way of using
ribbons inside the neck of the dress is to get
Gros grain ribbon that is only half an inch
wide, and gathering its lowest edge. sew it
just inside the dress collar, leaving scarcely
more than Il fourth of an inch showing above
the edge; this should be very full to look well,
and at each end is left piece Of the ribbon,
four or five inches long, to be tied in small
bow just in front -llarper's Bazaar.

To soften water for washing wool and
wooden goods, one authority says that the re.
fined carbonate of potash is much to be pre-
ferred to anything else, Soda III any form,
when used with wool, has a tendency to
make it hard and brittle and give it a yell
lowish color. Potash renders wool soft and
silky to the touch, and has also slight
bleaching action; therefore, potash for soften.
ing water and potash soap only should inva'
riably, and without exception, be used for
washing wool or woolenS This is claimed to
be the experience of hundreds of the largest
wool washers and wooden manufacturers

DANGER Turks IN ICE WATER.

DR.. William A. Hammond, Of
New York, has an interesting arti,
Gle in the North American Review,
treating on the dangers to human life
from The use of ice water. He holds
that with ice water removed from
the reach of man, human life would
be heightened, ana existence rem
dered more tolerable. America is
the greatest ice water drinking ma
ton of the world. The doctor says
the greatest danger from the exer-
else of the ice water habit is that it
often causes sudden death, particu-
larly in cases where the body is
over heated. Besides affecting the
heart and running the teeth, DR..
Hammond says the use of ice water
impairs the sense of taste, brings
dyspepsia and induces gastric
catarrh. 1t is even questionable
whether cancer of the stomach and
Brights disease do not follow in its
wake, according to the theory of
DR.. Hammond, who, in concluding
his article in the North American
Review, offers this advice Drink
no water below fifty degrees. Do
this and you will be happy-and so
will your stomach, and your heart
and your liver.

LET US BUILD FACTORIES.

There is room for factories in the
South. Indeed there are several
kind of sactories which could be
operated in the South with great
profit. There are none of the kinds
referred to in any of the southern
states.
For instance there is not sewing
machine factory south OF Cincinnati.
Why is this? Such factory would
pay handsomely. Why should the
south depend entirely upon the
north for sewing machines?
A gentleman of Cleveland, O., in
letter to the Morning Sun. says !:
"The south wants sewing machine
factory somewhere within its bord-
ers. With its wealth of woods, iron
and coal, side by side, machines
could be manufactured so cheaply
that they could be sold for less than
any sewing machine now in the
market. There is sewing machine
manufactured in this city which
sells for IS, and am sure it could
be manufactured in the south SO as
to be sold for Sc. 1t is in every
respect as good as any sewing ma
chine now in use. There are great
possibilities in the sewing machine.
The demand for it is beyond the
supply, and will continue to be for
years.
The northern people are quick to
take advantage of the opportunities
presented for increasing their manu-
featuring industries. Every north
ern town is full of such industries.
Why should not the southern peo-
pie establish such industries and
reap the benefits to be derived from
them? There are, doubtless, dozens
of industries that could be estab-
lishel in this city with profit. All
that is required is a little carital,
and that is here. Thousands of
dollars of our citizens are locked up
in securities which pay only small
rate of interest. Why not invest
some of it in factories, for instance
sewing machine factory? 1t
would yield twice as much as it is
yielding now. The southern people
are not quick enough to grasp the
money-making opportunities which
present themselves. Savannah

WHERE FREEDOM HAS PROVEN A
CURSE.

Frederick Douglass, who has been
sent as minister to Hayti, will have
to shut his eyes very tight when he
gets to Hayti if he is to preserve the
hopes and enthusiams of his lifetime
regarding his race. A more melan-
choly spectacle could hardly be pre-
sented than the results of the at
tempt at self-government by the
emancipated slaves of ayti.-Prov-
idence Journal.
The Journal presents a solid
truth in a very forcibly way in the
above paragraph. The condition Of
the natives of the little black repub-
lie is much worse now than it was
before they formally asserted their
independence in 1904. Ever since
that time the natives have been en-
gagged in civil wars and the result is
that civilization has steadily declin-
ed in that country until now it's
people, with the exception of it's
white population and a very small
number of its natives, are heather,
some of them even going 80 far as
to practice cannaibalism in it's worst
and most horrible forms. The his
tory of uayti for more than three
quarters of a century shows that
freedom has proven curse instead
ola blessing to her people. 1t is
very evident that the Haytians are
incapable of self-government.-

A PROFIT OF 500. 900.

The profits of the American Cot
ton Seed Oil Trust for the year end
ing June 1, will not surprise people
who are familiar with the progress
of that monopoly.
A profit of 50, 100000 is equal to
e per cent. on the outstanding GER
tifcates, but it is near 40 per cent.
on the amount of capital actually
invested by the trust. There is no
reason why the gains of the trust
should not be fully up to the figures
given for it has either bankrupted
and brought up the opposition mills
in the south, or offer inducements
to cooperate, that few cared to re-
fuse. The consequence is that COM
petition has been strangled, and the
farmers have got for their seed the
price fixed by the trust, and nc
more. The grip of the monopoly on
the manufacturers of which cotton
seed forms the basis has been abso-
lutte. The mill and the field alike
have paid tribute to it.
1t is annouounced that no action
has been token by the trustees to-
ward paying dividends out of the
vast sum learned" by their organi.
zation. This is not to be wondered
at, since three of the quarterly pay
ments on the dividend of four per
cent. declared in 1887 are still un-
paid, and it indicates that the trust
is keeping it's funds in hand to crush
out by mere weight of capital any
opposition that may be developed
during the approaching season.
With the 100000 of profits, add
ed for cash working sum of ST.
600, 900, which the trustees claim to
have it will be comparatively easy
to do this.
What effect this further failure
to pay dividends will have upon the
trust certificates is of no conse.
quence to anybody except spec
ulators, but not so the accumulation
of millions in its treasury to be
used in extending its already over
grown power over an important in
dustry. This is an aspect OF the
matter that the people of the cot.
ton states must view with gloomy
forebodings.-Macon News.

MARIETTA GA,
THURSDAY MORNING July 10, 1883.

No excellence without labor is one OF
the grandest truths ever instiiled into the
human mind. Would that every boy and
girl in elsnd would fully appreciate this
meaning. God has wisely concluded that
weshall be the architects of our own for
tunes. There can be no substantial good
in store for the man who will not labor.
In the eyes of all sensible men labor is
oporable and the man who will not work
for what he gets is disgrace to his name
and society. There is not any room in the
great hive of human industry fo- drones,
they are parasites feeding upon the labor
of the honest workers and should be ban>
ished from society.

The cause of nine parts in ten OF
the lamentable failures which occur
in mems undertakings lies not in
the want of talents, or the will to
use them, but in the vacillating and
desultory way of using them, in fly
ing from object to object; in starting
away at each little disgust, and
thus applying the force which might
conquer any one difficulty to all
series of difficulties so large that NO
human force can conquer them,
Commend me therefore to the vir-
tues of perseverance. Without it
all the rest are little better than
fairy gold, which glitters in your
purse, but when taken to market
proves to be slate or cinders.

Morgan county, Georgia, has challenged
the neighboring counties of Jasper, Putt
nam, Oconee, Newton, Walton, Green,
and Hancock to compete with her for q
prize of $500 for the best home-raised colt,
at the live stock show to be held in Msdi.
son Aug. 81, and it is probable that the
challenge will be accepted by all the coun.
ties named. This action on the part of the
farmers of Morgan is to be commended
It will create renewed interest among the
people of that section live in stock matters
and q generous rivalry in the raising o.
colts particularly, and probably will result
in the raising of better and more horses
an occupation should be engaged in much
more extensively in Georgia than it is.
No doubt some fine colts will be entered
for the $500 prize because in most ofthese
counties considerable attention is paid to
the raising of live stock.

Were the farmers of this country to sit
down and calculate the loss to them from
bad roads, they would find that they, ofall
men, should be the first to bestr themsel
yes to secure good roads. Bad roads mean
to agricultural population loss OF time, de.
crease in the value of their marketable pro-
ducts not inconsidersble loss in wear and
tear of vehicles and horses A complete
and good system of roads would be of in
estimable value to our farming community
and increase the value of their lands and
products. BY all means let our farmers
manifest an interest for better roads.
