Life is like harp. Childhood has its
silver string tuned to Joy and forgetfulness;
youth adds hope, love and courage; middle
life, sympathy, devotion, friendship; but
old age, experience, that attunes each to its
full measure of tone; and it IS the vrinkled
hand sweeping the strings that MAKES life's
true harmony-Christian Union.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1889-06-26

Duty ought never to wait on feeling; but
feeling ought always to wait on duty. A
man ought never to pivot his duty on his
feelings; but every man ought to conform
his feelings to the demands Of duty. Kind
speech is duty, whether a man feels kind
ly or not But kindly feelings are always
duty, and he who lacks them ought to
set himself at acquiring them. Not feeling,
but duty, must lead mans course; but a
mans right feeling is included in his
EVERYDAY duty.-S. S. Times.

Look Out for short Bills.

A local business man has lately been
twice made the victim of a fraud that
is not common among crooks in the
green" On presenting money at
the bank for deposit, he has had S5
bills returned as worthless because
they were too short.
On examination it was found that q
section from one-half of an inch TO
one inch in width had been cut out Of
the bills, and that the remaining sec
tons had been pasted together. The
illusion was increased in a way that
It's very simplicity was doubtless the
reason Of its success
The letters taken from the words
'United States" by the section cut out
were crudely reprinted with pen and
ink on tho shortened greenback, and
In the majority Of cases the holder
would not detect the fraud unless the
bill were measured or held up 10 the
light, when tho junction Of the two
p,rts could be plainly seen.
The bills thus mutilatcd had had IN
one case the letters tied" removed,
and In the others tho letters st" The
object Of the operator is finally 10 get
enough sections 70 mako new y

be easily passed under ordinary, cir

A New Industry In Russia.

The ST. Petersburg correspondent of
The North British Mail says that dur
ing the last few months a new indus
try has sprung up in Russia in the
form Of nicotine extract. This pro
duct not only finds a sale in Russia.
but is already exported in considerable
quantities, especially to South Amer
lea. The lees obtained, when prepar.
ing the tobacco leaf, have been used
Tor long time for destroying para
sites on plants, and they have also been
found efficacious when applied as an
antidote to the various skin diseases to
which sheep are liable. II has now,
however, been djscoyeyed thai tRispye
duct affords q remedy for Another de
structive agent-namely; the dry rot
among sheppard last autumn the
Russian firm of Nikolai, Bogdanow q
Co. started works in Moscow for the
production Of pjcotne extract on a
large scale. Four to five pools
of common Machorka tobacco
yield only about one pood OF
the extract, but in such a con-
centrated form llat a teaspoonful
is sufficient for nearly two pints Of
water, and the works produce about
80 pools of the extract perdiem, The
Russian government has decided tc
exempt this product from excise duty
Any other uses to which this nicotine
may be applied, although not difficult
to imagine, have not yet transpired.

ing caused a layer of barley to be
placed on top Of several layers Of diff
ferent kinds Of wheat. The spout was
opened and the barley came rushing

Domestic Animals Of Ancient Peruvians.

Domestic Animals Of Ancient Peruvians.
Herr Nehring, speaking Of the do.
mestic animals Of the ancient Peru
vians, observed that the subject was
scientifically important because all
the other peoples of ancient America
were very poor in this kind OF prop
erty as compared with the Peruvians
and Bolivians and some of the Central
American peoples; and, secondly, be-
cause the influence Of domestication
on the formation Of races could be
better followed on these animals than
on those of the Old World. We are
concerned in Peru especially with the
dog, llama, alpaca, and guinea pig.
The speaker had examined eighteen
dog mummies from ancient Peruvian
graves, and had determined that they
belonged 10 three different races-a
shepherds dog, a dachshund, and a
bull dog or pug. He believed that
the 'Inca dog" was derived, not from
South American Canida, but from
the Mexican wolf lupus occidental
lis), perhaps through the feebler
Texan variety; and that several
races had been formed from il in Peru
through domestication. In this Herr
Nehring dissents from and contradicts
Won Tschudi's opinion that the va
rites had arisen from crossing with
European dogs. As the dog and like
wise the llama and alpaca are un-
doubtedly Of America, SO, also, in the
speakers opinion, is the guinea pig,
Notwithstanding B. Hensel and other
authors believe that it was intro
duced from Europe.-Popular Science

Fever.
LIVINGSTON. March 2l.-GSpecial to
the Independent. ]-Scarlet fever has
been raging here for several weeks In
a very malignant form. About twenty
five deaths are reported up to THE
time, mostly young children. 1t was
thought the fever had somewhat
abated, rs there hes been no new cases
heard from for several days. II has,
however, started anew. and numerous
new cases are reported to-day. There
is talk now of quarantining the houses
that contain fever patients, with a
view OF preventing the spread Of this
scourge, q precautisn which has not
heretofore been taken by the city au-
thorities. There has been q great deal
of sickness In this vicinity during the
past few months, attributable mainly
1t is said. to very open winter. Th'
city schools, which were closed som'
time ago an account OF the scarle
fever, will not be opened again thi
year, with the one exception OF th'

sponging Q Tiger.

When Pezon, the lion tanner, was
at Moscow with his menagerle, he bad
occasion 10 employ a moujik. a fine
specimen of q Cossack, to clean out
the cages Of the wild beasts. The Cos.
sack did not understand word OF
French. and the terms Of the contract
were settled in dumb show. By way
of instructing him in his new duties,
Pezon went through a sort OF panto-
mine with the broom, sponge and
water bucket. The moujik watched
him closely and appeared fully 10 un-
derstand the details OF the lesson
given. Next morning, armed with
broom, a bucket and q sponge, he
opened the first cage he came To and
quietly stepped in, as he had seen his
master step ON the previous day into
two cages OF harmless brutes, but this
one happened TO be a splendid but un:.
tanned tiger, that lay stretched on the
floor fast asleep. AT the noise made
by opening and closing the door the
creature raised its head and turned its
green eyes full on the MIN. who, all
unconscious Of his danger stood IN the
corner dipping his big sponge into the
bucket
AT that moment Pezon came out OF
his caravan and was struck dumb by
the terrible sight that met his gaze:
What could he do TO warn the mn9 %
his dangeri A sound, amovement Oh
his part might ennge the great beast
and hasten It's attack ON the de(cnse-
less Cossack. So Pezon stood await
ing developments, ready 10 rush 10 the
scene when tho crisis came. Tha
mouiik, sponge in hand, cool1y ap'
preached the tiger and made ready
TO rub him down with the stolidity q

tain's boots. The sudden application
of cold water TO his hide evidently
produced a very agreeable effect on

Of its body 70 the vigorous treatment
Of the moujik.

STILL THE GOVERNOR.

The yexed Question still Unsettled.
WAsHINGToN. March 22-[Special
to the Herald. Last week Delegate
Carter almost but not quite persuaded
the President that Louis II. Hersh-
field was the man of all others to ap-
point governor Of Montana territory.
Noble was of Mr.. Carter's opinion after
scanning all the papers bearing upon
the case and hearing the delegate's
statement of the merits Of the man
and the situation of affairs at home.
Owing, however, TO the industrious
opposition Of several persons not with
out influence at TIE White House the
disposal Of the matter was put of
until other republicans could have an
opportunity to speak, and the result Is,
after making 1t appear that objections
to Hershfield extended beyond Mr..
McCutchion and friends, that the
President has been brought TO believe
that the taking up Of some new man
was, under the circumstances, the
wisest course to pursue. In the con-
test Mr.. Carriers position has under
gone no change, but the prospects, as
calculated to-day, promise to override
that position. If rightly Informed,
the proposed substitution of Council
man Cole for Hershfield unfavorably
impressed the Pre- resident, even though
ID was urged for day with some ap-
pearance of zeal by number Of en-
dorsements backed by an appeal Of at
least one Montana resident In person.
Undoubtedly the President wants to
do the right thing, es he secs it, and

now been turned, 10 the fear that 9

to the heart OF God mlscarried. The
way Is all clear for the ascent OF your
supplications heavenward in behalf Of
this nation. Before the postal COM
municatlon was so easy, and long ago,
on rock one hundred feet high, on
the coast of England, there was
barrel fastened to post. and In great
letters on the side of the rock, so it
could be seen far out at sea, were the
words "Post Office;" and when ships
came by a boat put out to take and
fetch letters. And so sacred were those
deposits of affection in that barrel that
no lock was ever pat upon that barrel,
although 1t contained messages for
America, and Europe, and Asia, and
Africa, and all the islands of the sea.
Many storm-tossed sailor, hemesick,
got messages OF kindness by that rock,
and many a homestead heard good
news from boy long gone. Would
that all the heights Of our national
prosperity were in interchange Of SYM
pathies-prayers going up meeting
blessings coming down; postal celes-
tial, not by storm-struck rock on a
wintry coast, but by the Rock Of
Ages.

A NATIONAL RELIGION,
There are two kinds of national re-
ligion. The one is supported by the
State, and is q matter of human poll
tics, and it has great patronage, and
under 1t men will struggle for promi
nence without reference to qualitica-
tions. and its archbishop Is supported
by salary of $4,000 a year, and
there are great cathedrals, with all the
machinery of music and canonlcals,
and room for a thousand people. yet an
audience of fifty people. or twenty
people, or ten, or two.
We want no such religion as that, nc
such national religion; but we want
this kind of national rellgion-the
vast majority of the people converted
and evangelical, and then they will
manage the secular as well as the re-
ligious.
