Easier to Work than Friends Sugar
Scheme.

When lived in Chicago queer chap invented
a cheap way to make files. A bit Of hot steel
went into his machine, aud the file was made al
a single blow ami fell into a tank Of strong min
eral water to cool Then bare armed work
man thrust in his hand and felt around and
brought il up for inspection. The files thus
made we're little imperfect, but were good
ones and be explained that the machine was a
small experimental one, and could not Of
course, do perfect work as a large and powerful
machine would.
Capitalists went around and examined the
machine. and saw him heat the steel in hand
forge ami put 1t in the machine, and saw the
red hot file come out and drop into the water
ana they tried the file with their own bands on
iron which they had brought from home. and
found Il excellent The only secret was the
chemical water into which the files dropped
and which gave them edge. a company was
formed and money was paid IN freely to enable
the inventor to make SCI az large machines,
and when that was done he disappeared.
IL was a fraud. He had bought good files and
defaced them a little, and stocked hs tank with
them His machine stamped the bit Of steel
into file shape. and It dropped into the water
with the iles, and his workman, who was in
collision, felt around and brought up file in
stead Of the steel.

been given that on the day the rec jrd of which

Tho Best Policy.

The Commissioner OF Agriculture Of
Georgia showed in his last report that the
farmers Of this state who bought bacon and
corn on credit last year paid for them
more than 6 per cent. a month more than
the same articles cost for cash.
The average cash price of bacon was g. II
cents pound, and the average credit price
was 1873 cents. The average cash prica Of
corn was n cents bushel, and the average
credit price was 9S cents. Very few farm
ers paid cash for these things, and none of
them could afford to pay credit prices.
Another burden they have to bear is the
tax, under the high protective system, upon
nearly every article of comfort for their
families Considering these things, it is
not strange that they should be in debt.
The farmers expect to be benefited by
the Farmers Alliance, and it is highly
probable that a non-political alliance, prop
erly conducted. would benefit them: but no
organization can help them very greatly if
they continue to buy at ruinous prices what
they ought to raise. The alliance men may
succeed in obtaining a reduction in the
prices Of provisions, but why should they
buy their provIsionsa Why not raise theml
The farmer who raises nearly everything
ne consumes, whether he be a member of
the alliance or not, is the farmer who will
get out Of debt, keep out of debt
and lay up money. Some of the
county alliances have agreed 10 pur-
sue this policy. 1t is good policy and one
that, if adopted and adhered to by every
county alliance in Georgia, would be the
salvation Of the farmers Neither the cost
nor the credit prices of provisions would
then be Of very great interest to them.

Tie Way to His Heart.
Eronl "a Yonth's Comnnnion


The Immature of many men viii vanish in the
presence OF their favorte dishes ON the dinner
table-a fact that has given rise to the old say
ing that the way to mans heart is through his
stomach.
The writer once boarded with an irritable
elderly man who gave aughabe Illustrations of
the truth of this adage. When things had gone
wrong with the choleric old gentleman his wife
would slyly say to her daughter who assisted in
the cooking:

Sarah, your pa is so out of speerits. | in
tended having pot-pie, but he don't care much
for that, and you know how fond he is of
dumplin's."
When the "dumplins' appeared the old gen
tleman's wrath would speedily vanish.
Sometimes the wise old lady would scatter
an impending storm and keep it for breakfast
by appearing with plate of doughnuts or pie,
saying:
Here. pa you'd better eat this; nobody
else wants it, and it's just sittin' round In the

Amenities OF the Road.
From the Wnll Street Neles.

On the Lake Shore road the other day, there
was a fatherly, dignified man, accompanied by
a good-lookiug daughter. In the seat ahead was
a stranger with two grip-sacks. After a silence
of an hour, the stranger turned around and
offered the girl magazine. She hestated, and
the father slowly reached around, pulled out
revolver and laid it on his knee, and continued
his reading. The stranger deliberately reached
over and seized the revolver, took a screwdriver
from his pocket and unscreHed the hammer
and threw it out of the window, and then with
one hand he replaced the weapon on the fathers
knee and with the other he dropped the ma ga
zine into the girls lap.
He was a New York drummer, of course.

Recovered Her Needle After Min eteen
Years.
From the Kingston Freeman


Nineteen years ago this month woman re-
siding here accidentally pushed a needle into
her breast. She had been sewing on fine mus
lin, and she pushed the point of the needle
through the lapel of her basque while she in
quired into the cause of a quarrel between two
children who were playing near by. In par
oxySm of tears the younger child threw herself
into the arms of the lady, and as she did 80 the
needle was pushed 50 far out of sight that only
the eye was visible. A quick movement to res
cue it resulted in an entire disappearance Of
the fine bit of steel. No Inconvenience was
experienced and the incident was entirely for
gotten.
A few evenings ago the woman who had car
ried the needle about her for 30 many years
was awakened out of a sound sleep by pecu-
lia- pricking sensation in the throat. Rising
up in bed she began to cough. The pricking
became more severe, but the sharp Substance
appeared to be rising in her throat Thrusting
her fingers down as far as possible she caug I
hold # an object and drew it out. IL was the
needle that had been journeying about under
the surface for nineteen years.

Mrs. Harrison is not much of politician,
but she is said to have believed for a long
time before her husbands nomiuation and
election that he would be Presi-
dent. When the general was defeated for
reelection TO the senate, she consoled him
by saying that he could work for the presi
dency better out OF than in the Senate.
When the Chicago convention met, she felt
confident be would be nominated, although
she could not explain why she did. When
he was nominated she felt equally rs conf
dent that be would be elected. In other
words, she regarded him as man Of des-
tiny. 1t has been noticed that good many
women think their husbands are men OF
destiny, but a number Of them fnd out
after a while that they we're mistaken.

The South Developed by Southerners.
The opinion Of many people, among
whom are "a nu uber of southerners, that
the marvellous material advancement the
south is making is mainly the result of
northern energy and capital, is an erroneous
one. Northern capital and northern people
are helping to de5elop the south, but her
progress is due mainly to southern brain,
muscle and money.
The development Of the south is in the
direction of the industries rather than in that
OF agriculture, and observant people agree
that the southern mines have been opened
and southern factories established aim Isl
wholly by southern people, aud that they
are controlled mainly by tlem. luvestiga-
ton III almo any souta6fn city which has
advanced industriously il the last ten years
will show that tbs is true. Northern
capital and northern men, how
ever, will play a more important
part in the development of the
south in the future than they have in the
past Investments in southern enterprises
are becoming very popular, because they
are profitable, and northern men are begin
ming to recognize the fact that they could
not put capital to better use than to in
vest it in mines and factories in the south.
Skilled northern workmen are coming
south, but they work side by side with
southern workmen equally as skilled.
The New York Herald has asserted fire.
quently that TIE south was being developed
by southerners. The New York Star has
male the same assertion lately, and that
view has been Endorsed by other northern
newspapers, by many southern newspapers,
and by wel-informed people both north
and south.
The agricultural advancement of the
south will be more marked in the next ten
years than it has il thu last ten. The
southern farmers are becoming alive to the
| necessity Of charging tleir methods, and
as they adopt new methods, they will be-
come more independent. Agricultural i'm
migration, which is being sought more than
ever before, will help along the development
of the south very greatly.
