MsE!.ss.. WINE OF cARpu! for female diseases.

"A very sad tale was related by a
little girl at a Boston police station,
Monday. 1t vas thought to be with
out foundation, but on inquiry, the
Journal says, an officer found her
statements correct. The child said
she had three sisters, and that her
mother having, through sickness,
got behind in the rent (s2.75 per
month";, the landlady ordered two
constables to eject the family from
the house. The constables removed
nearly all the furniture Monday af-
ternoon, it is said, and also took the
sashes out of the windows and pour
ed a bucket Of colo water on the fire
at which the oldest girl was at the
time preparing some medicine for
her mother. The only thing left in
the room was the bed on which the
mother lay. About s o'clock the
poor woman died from the effects Of
the exposure. The officer sent to
investigate replaced the windows
and built another fire, and the chill
dren staid with their dead mother
until Tuesday morning. when tbev
were provided fo- by the police. The
husband was killed few years age
in railroad disaster.

When young man finds that he
IS developing critical faculty, let
him pause. The critic never does
anything great and useful. He sits
back and picks flaws in the work of
others. He sees spots on the sun.
No work of genius altogether pleas
ey him, 1t worries him to see how
short men fall of his ideals. So he
goes along, grumbling and denounc-

SELF RELIANCE.

How often do we find those who
are thrown into the life stream of the
world without wealth and without
friends oppressed with poverty, but
possessed Of stout hearts, rising su-
perior to their lowly fortunes, and
outstripping their more gifted and
more favored competitors. The path
Of distinction is far more frequently
trod by selfrelying poverty, than by
pampered wealth. 1t is natural that
it should be so. Necessity is moi
only mother of invention,r but the
parent of industry and effort :-sTis
necessity to which the Gods mast
yield; and I obey, Till | redeem it
by some glorious way"
Want impels to exertion by an
iron rule, Wealth-often a seduc-
ing cheat-allures to idle pleasures
and ingloriousl Incidence. Self-re-
lance forms an essential element Of
American character and is one of
it's most striking features. It is en-
grated upon our government, and
the child inhales it with his earliest
breath. Hence the spirit of restless
adventure, of wild and daring enter
prise, which distinguishes the Ameri-
can, above every other people. It
is inculcated by the the spirit Of our
institutions and promulgated by our
laws. The American will war with
the gloomy clements amidst western
wilds and will look back from the
snow-clad SUBMITS OF the rocky
mountains, to the old settled por-
tons of his country: with only an
occasional regret, soon to cast his
eager eyes over the new as it
stretches out to the blue waters of
the Pacific. Here are no drones, no
privileged classes weighing like an
incubus upon the body polite whose
only employment is to devour the
products of the enterprising and in
dustrious. Here are no laws by
which inheritances are fettered and
secured forever in certain families.
Here in the words of Mr.. Jefferson
1.-THE masses of mankind are not
born with saddles on their backs for
the favored few, booted or spurred,
to ride them legitimarely by the
grace of Cod" but the field of in
dustry is open alike to all, and he
who is the most active and enter
prising will be the most successful.
The first lesson learned by
young man setting out upon the
career of lite, should be an unwaver-
ing reliance upon his own powers.
With industry, perseverance and
self-reliance, success ifnot absolute
ly certain is highly probable. Self
reliance is the first great step on. the
high road to advancement. 1t torti-
fes the man mentally and morally;
gives GOODNESS, vigor, intrepidity TO
the soul and clothes it with all the
luxurious richness of which it is
susceptible. The highest honors and
the brightest rewards in whatever
departments their exertions we're
made have always fallen to the share
Of energetic and self-relying men.
Those who trust to the influence of
wealth and friends or to the syren
songs of hope alone, can expect to
reap nothing but bitter disappcint
ments and gloomy failure.

WHAT WE MUST DO.

in the country, and everything
gravitates towards her as naturally
as the water runs to the sea.
The consequence is, the whole
country has to pay tribute to At
lanta.
This is no fault of hers. 1t is
simply the natural result of the ex-
listing condition Of affairs in this
country. 4
The fact is, it is more our own
fault than it is Atlanta's. We de-
pend too much upon Atlanta for
what we want.
We must learn to be more self
reliant and Independent. We must
learn to be more enterprising and
progressive, and we must depend
more upon our own resources and
energies, for supplying our wants
and necessities.
Atlanta's absorbing qualities are
now simply wonderful, and she is
absolutely drawing the life blood
out Of the whole country for many
miles surrounding her.
Our only safety lies in our power
for resisting, or our ability for sus-
tanning this fearful tax upon our
energies and commercial vitality.
But, we must resist it.; because if
we do not, we soon will not be able
TO sustain it, it
Our hope is in building up home
industries, and then sustaining
them with our patronage, as we
ought to do. There is no other way
to do it.
We must stop sending our mon
ey away from home for things we can
and ought to produce as cheap and
as well at home as they are made
abroad. This is a duty we owe to
our town, pur county, and to one
another.
Let US work to build more rail-
roads, which will bring more people
here, and furnish profitable employ
ment to our mechanics and labor
ers, and infuse new life into every
artery of trade and business.
Every dollar We invest in new
railroads and new enterprises, will
enhance the value of property, and
help to increase our population and
business.
Towns must have something more
substantial to depend upon for Gus
toners, than what is commonly
termed wagon trade The wag-
on trade is good enough while it
lasts. But we may have it to-day,
and tomorrow we may not.
We must have shops and factor
les, with all sorts of mechanics and
laborers and operatives, in order to
have permanent custom trade. If
we cannot establish such local in
dustries, with their accompanying
population of industrious operatives,
and then patronize the products of
their labor, the absorbing influence
Of Atlanta will continue to be felt
more and more oppressively every
year, until our energies and sub
stance are entirely exhausted.
These are no idle thoughts. They
are calm and earnest words of warn
ing, and are uttered in no spirit of
complaint towards our phenomenal
and esteemed capital city.-Coving-
ton Star.
The above is applicable to Mari
eta and should be needed by our
people.

Lew Prices for Corn.

1t was stated in the Tribune Thurs
day that the 29c. per hnshel now be-
ing paid for No. 2 corn in this market
is the lowest price reached since No
vember, 1862. But that is far from
indicating the measure Of depression
to the farmer out West. The price
named is for tho speculative grade,
which is now neglected by shippers,
rs the No. 8 is found to be sufficiently
dry for the use Of their customers,
and sells at much less than the other.
A consignment of corn from an in
terror town in Kansas was graded
No. 3 on arrival here this week, and
the resulting sale ncttcd to the ship
per only $50. per bushel. The
charges for transportation and hand
ling absorbed all the rest, and the
miserably small sum, including the
profit Gf any made on the trans
action by the Kansas merchant, with
the cost of hauling from the farm
to the depot. This is an extreme
case, but there are plenty of others
in which about 12c. is all that can
be remittcd to the buyer at the
county depot West of the Missouri.
1t is no wonder if the average farm
cr becomes dissatisfied with Il. set Of
commercial conditions which yield
him such small return for his labor
and the use of the capital needed in
the occupation Of grain growing.
Neither would it excite surprise if it
should be found that he is unwilling
to keep on selling his property at
these figures, and thereby entail Il
severe loss on some of the mon
who have had the tcmcrity to de-
press it to the starvation point by
offering a flood Of corn on the market
without owning bushcl of it, and
depending on the country to see
them through with the bargain.-

A MilliOnaire'S Palace.

George w. Vanderbilt, the young
est Of the sons of the late William
ii. Vanderbilt, is determined, in adj
dition to his wcll-known palace in
New York, to have the most magni-
ficcnt private park and the lordlicst
country estate in America. TO that
end he has recently bought at COS,
of $4,000 nearly 5000 acres lying
just outside of this town-a tract Of
land fully onc-third larger than
your magnificent Fairmuont Park,
about onc-third OF the acreage Of
which lies under the Schuy kill and
the. Wissahickon. His landscape
gardner is already at work laying
out and bcautifying these extensive
grounds at an expense of 100000
more. His architect is busy pre-
pairing the plans for lordly pleas
nrc house, like All old style French
chateau, which will cost an al,li-
tional $4o0,000.
His model stables, which will be
scattered over the 5000 acres, Tor
the purpose of housing thousands
of horses and cattle Of the very
blucst Of the blue bovine blood, will
cost, it is said, ut least S200,00O
more. SO you see that the estimated
cost already foots up to the magnifi-
cent sum Of $l,200,0O0. The short
est distance from the stately entrance
gates to the still statclicr mansion
Of the lord Of this vast estate will be
iour miles by a magniIicen, roadway
sixty fee, wide, and it is said that
there will be more than fifty miles Of
macad:umizcd roads within the
grounds. .lShccWc Letter IN PhHu-

The Gulf Stream Theory

Prof. Thomas G. Mcndcnhall,
chief Of the United States coast sur
yey, being asked by a World corfes-
pondcnt if the change of the Gulf
Stream was the cause Of the present
unreasonable weather. said:
"Thcrc is no question that the
Gulf Stream shifts its position in re-
lation to the Eastern coast of this
country from time to time. Such
changes are due to variations in
other ocean currents in its vicinity,
and arc attributed largely to winds
in that part Of the Atlantic. That
the Gulf Stream is now very much
nearer the coast than is usual am
unable to affirm; but even if this
was the case it would not, in my
judgment, afford an explanation of
the unusual climate conditions which
have prevailed for some time. 1t
must be remembered that these
unusual conditions are not peculiar
to the Atlantic coast, and it is i'm
possible to conceive that the inilu-
cnce Of the Gulf Stream would
extend to and throughout the Mis-
sissippi Valley and give rise to the
uniform high temperature which has
existed over this large area.
"Ihc explanation of this mus be
sought for elsewhere. Mctcorologi-
cal observation and study do not
bear out the popular notion that
material changes arc taking place in
the climate. In the nature of things
some seasons will be mild and others
will be severe. 1T is quite possible
that several mild winters may occur
in succession, and also several win
ters Of great severity, but definite
conclusions with regard to climate
can only be safely drawn from Il
study Of the observations of many
years. ."-Ncr York World.

The Ready Pistol.
IT'S USE NOT CONFINED no THE
SOUTH AND TIE WEST.

We hear many comments upon
the readiness with which firearms
are used in the South and West,
but perhaps few Of us who do not
read the reports Of police and crimi-
nails courts, or count the number of
eases casually mentioned in the daily
papers, realize how constant, the
ready "pisto" is used in this city Of
New York. Not only is it common
among the so called criminal classes,
but young men whose circumstances
furnish no excuse, and even small
boys, are found to carry pistols,
which, discharged in fun or under Il
sudden angry impulse, daily cause
the loss OF innocent lives.
1t is thought smart to carry a
pistol, and the ease with which the
weapons can be bought at pawn
brokers' sale or from irresponsible
dealers encourages the practice.
There is law on the Statute book
against carrying concealed weapons,
and it would be well to enforce it
by locking up a few of these young
bravos.
The pistol nowadays among GER
tain classes seems ia have toknn

The Coming Mechanic.

The coming mechanic, says an cx-
change, bred in training schools,
will be a very different man from the
mechanic Of the present. Even the
young mechanic who is now learning
i'll the shop will, in some very inn
portant respects, be at Il disadvan-
tagc when he comes into competition
with the young mechanic who is now
III the school.
The shop graduate may he ''prac-
teal" and the school graduate will
be equally "praclical,n" with the
added advantage Of wide thcorctrical
knowledge The shop graduate may
be able to do all the work planned
or designed for him, and The school
graduate will be able, not only to do
the work, but also to do the plan
ming and the designing. In every
way the school graduate will have
all good points OF the shop graduate,
with added good points due to wider
information, while he will lack most
of the bad points Of the shop gradu-
ate.
All this means that the coming
mechanic is to be very different
person from the present and the
past mechanic. There will be a
great change for the better wrought
by the modern training school. The
boy in the shop may be set to turn
wheel. He simply sees it in posi-
ton, and he does what he is told to
do, without asking or knowing the
reason why it is done. The boy in
the training SCI ,ol docs through the
same practice un,.er full instructions
concerning the nature Of the mate
rial, the proper cutting speed, and
everything Use connected with the
JOB. The shop boy finishes, and is
simply tired muscularly or ncrvonsly.
The school boy finishes, and feels
himself master of that job. Can
any mechanic fail to appreciate the
wide difference between two ncclan-
les trained in ways so different p
