Kind Words to Girls.

A word of advice to young girls:
Never contract acquaintance with
strange young men unless they come
in company with those with whom
you are well acquainted and in whom
you place confidence Even then be
on your guard and see that the pros
prieties of life are not exceeded.
There is not day but we read in
our exchanges of some poor girl who,
from her confnding nature, has been
bas ly betrayed by some heartless
scoundrel, and thus placed on the
high road to dishonor and ruin. The
libertine is always cautious in his
movements and sly in his approaches
to the human heart, and unless his
intended victim fortlfes horself by
the principles of virtue and refuses
to place herself in his keeping except
with honor, she is lost Girls,
guard yourselves against the vices
aud follies of the world, an let puri-
ty of soul, integrity, virtue and honor
be your guiding star, and then, when
age comes upon you, you can read
the book of your life with pleasure,
finding nothing written therein Of
which you would be ashamed when
it shall he opened in the light of di-
vine truth and read by other beings
than those which inhabit this earth.

AnO dl armer's Advise.

This is the advice of an old man
who titled the soil for forty years:
am an old man upwards of three
score years, during two score of which
| have been tiller of the soil | can
not say that / am now, but l have
been rich and have all that / need,
do not owe a dollar, have given my
children a good education and when
| am called away will leave enough
to keep the wolf from the door. My
experience taught me that.
One Acre Of land we'll prepared and
we'll cultivated produced more than
two which received only the same
amount used on one.
One COW, hcrse, mule, sheep or hog
well fed is mJre profitable than two
kept on the same amount necessary
to keep one well.
One acre of clover or grass is worth
two of cotton where no clover or grass
is reised.
No farmer who buys oats, corn or
wheat, fodder and hay, as a rule, for
tel years, can keep the sheriff away
from his door in the end.
The farmer who never reads the
papers, sneers at book farming and
improvements, always has a leaky
roof, poor stock. broken down fences,
and complains of bad seasons.
The farmer who is above his busis
ness and entrusts it to another to
manage, soon has no business to at-
tend to.-North Carolina Farmer.

This is no appeal from the great law

Men seldom think Of the great
event Of death until its shadow tails
across their own pathway, hiding from
their eyes the faces Of loved ones
whose living smile was the sunlight
Of the existence.
Death is the antagouis! of life, and
