An Old Bank President.

Among the portraits in the private
gallery of a we'll known citizen is one OF
Gen. Alexander McDougall, who was
the first president of the bank of New
York Gen. McDougall took very
active part in the events which led up
to the Revolution, and during the strug-
gle his best energies were always at the
services of his country. He was born
in Scotland, on the island of Islay, in
1871, coming to this country with his
father as boy. Tradition says, and
his enemies repeated it, that his first
calling was that of a milkman's boy.
Afterward he went to sea, rising until
he came into command. During the
French and Indian war he was captain
of a privateer called the Tiger. He
left this occupation soon after, and be-
came shipping merchant, being also
known for his attention to public af-
fairs. He was Son of Liberty in 1865,
and ten years later was made the com
mander of one of the New York regi-
ments He was commissioned a brig
adler general in 1776, being engaged in
all the conflicts around New York.
When Arnold betrayed his country, he
was succeeded in the command of the
post at West Point by Gen. MeDougall.

KISS HER AND TELL HER SO.

You've a neat little wife at home, John,
As sweet as you wish to see;
As faithful and gentle-hearted,
As fond as wife can be;
genuine home-loving woman,
Not caring for fuss or show;
She's dearer to you than life, John,
Then kiss her and tell her SO.
Your dinners are pro mptly served, John,
As likewise your breakfast and tea;
Your wardrobe is al ways in order,
With buttons where buttons should be,
Her house is a cozy home-nest, John,
A heaven of rest below;
You think she's rare little treasure,
Then kiss her and tell her so.
She's a good wife and true to you, John.
Let fortune be foul or fair;
OF whatever comes to you, John,
She cheerfully bears her share.
You believe she's brave, true helper,
And perhaps far more than you know;
1t will tighten her end of the load, John,
To kiss her and tell her so.
There's a cross-road somewhere in life, John
Where a hand on a guiding stone
Will signal one cover the river,
And the other must go on alone.
Should she reach the last milestone first,
John,
Twill be comfort amid your woe
To know that while loving her here, John,
You kissed her and told her so.

SAVED BY A DOG.

stanley's Dog Randy Catches a Guinea
Fowl When the Party Is Starving.
We were sitting conversing about our
prospects, discussing the probabilities
of our couriers reaching some settle
ment on this day, or the next, and the
time that it would take them to return
and they desired to know whether, in
my previous African experience, L had
encountered anything SO grievous as
this.

any one will minister unto us?'
Just then there was a sound as of a
large bird whirring through the air.
Little Randy, my fox terrier, lifted up
foot and gazed inquiringly; we turned
our heads to see, and that second the
bird dropped beneath the jaws of Randy,
who snapped at the prize and held it
fast in wise as of iron.
''There, boys" l said, truly the
gods are gracious. The age of miracles
is not past" and my comrades were
seen gazing in delighted surprise at the
bird, which was fine fat guinea fowl.
1t was not long before the guinea fowl
was divided, and Randy, its captor, had
his lawful share; and the little doggie
seemed to know that he had grown in
esteem with all men, and we enjoyed
our prize each with his own feelings

is hoped some other bill will pass or
that these states adopt a frst-class
educational system of free public
schools, which will be better.
The highways in Georgia are as
bad as the schools and yet every
able-bodied male between I6 and 20
years of age has to either work five
days on the road or pay $3.50. In
cities the amount to be paid in lieu of
the five days work varies, but the
five days clause is the same all over
the state.

So Mr. Frederick Rogers spent much

So Mr.. Frederick Rogers spent much
of his time at the quiet farmhouse and
impressed himself favorably with Aunt
Frances; and the summer passed and
no one else came to disturb the pleas
ant days
One day in late September Minnie
again stood with Mr.. Rogers beside the
cool, dark pool at the edge of the wood
where she took her first lesson in ''fish-
erman's luck" but Tom was invisible.
Minnie was looking particularly charm
ing that day. Her face was flushed,
her eyes bright as the sparlzles on the
surface of the water below them.
Mr.. Rogers had been painting the
scene, and in a few wifi strokes he had
her there, too; her warm, sweet face,
her merry lips and all. Her arms were
full of late flowers, and one spray of
golden rod swept her face as though to
caress her
How did you manage to get me in
SO wellr queried Minnie, with a swift,
laughing glance L-,Sot him. And this
spray of golden rod is quite perfect.
II got you in because it was you"
said Mr.. Rogers, with a forced laugh.

ME. VIII you listen?"
How cen help it?' queried Minnie,
but there was a deepened color in her
face that spoke well for his success.
After while Mime looked up, a
shadow of sadness on her face 81

selves and given me no chance to right.

"And if am willing to forgive YOU
But you couldn't forgive me" she
cried; lit was too much for anyone to

Not for love-" he said, and there
was silence for moment.
Then, from behind the hedge, came
a shrill boyish voice quivering with
laughter: Hi, hi, Min, you've got him
sect you keep hi1n"-and the voice
broke off into a peal of smothered
laughter, dying away into the distance
with the mufied sound of footsteps on
the rustling leaves.

Good News for Country Producers
and Shippers.

|
J Farmers and store-keepers in the
| country VIII be interested to know
that at last plan has been devised
to improve the faculties heretofore
attainable for the sale Of market pro-
duce, or other properties handled by
Express in the large cities, by which
the danger of loss and delayin return
Of proceeds will be avoided
Our attention has lately been called
to the operations of the Commission
Department of the American Express
Co., that is now undertaking to act
as the representative of shippers in
the country in placing their consign-
ments with reliable dealers inS the
cities and seeing hatprompt returns
are made of the results of sales.
This department of the Company
will furnish, on request, names of rep
utable Commission and other deal
ers at any point on its line, to whom
shipments can be made through the
Company's Commission Department.
Consignments can also be made di-
rect to the Company, who will turn
the property over for sale, to such
parties as they believe will make good
sales, and in either case representa-
tives of the Express Companywill at
tend to the collection and return of
the proceeds.
For these services no charge is
made beyond the regular Express
charges on the goods, and whatever
commission is charged by the party
making the sale.
The action of this progressive Com
pany in thus giving the services of it's
representatives in looking after the
interests of shippers, will, we believe,
be thoroughly appreciated by those
who find markets for their produce
in the large cities and towns.
We understand also that the EX-
press Agents can furnish information
as to prices and condition of markets
in the large cities, that will be useful
in determining as to favorable time
to ship.
