Where the Shine Came From.

"Well. grandma" said q little boy,
resting his elbows on the old l@dy's stuffed

'All could answered dear grandma
cheerily. 81 have read little and prayed

sunny brown hair, her brown eyes have

"l'll ask her." said Arthur promptly,
and to grandma's surprise he raised the
window and called:
"Su>ie, oh Susie, come up here min

The brown eyes opened wide ia sur

came in. .- .,.
"Grsndma wants to know, SUSIE" ex-
planned the boy, "what makes you look SO
bright all the time"
'sWhy, have to-" said Susie. "You

mamma is tired out with nursing, and
baby's cross with her teeth, and if didn't

Yes yes, see" said dear old grand

THE SUB TREASURY.

So far as the sub treasury is intended to
supply an increase of money it promises
nothing good to the farmers, who above
all others. will be the victims of the evils
of any Initiation which will disturb values
They need for their welfare currency as
steady and stable as themselves. The
traders and specuators-those looking out
for deals and corners-can riot amid the
excitement of speculative values and
fluctuations from disturbance of the cir
culating medium. The farmer and labore~
stand no sort of even chance in that con-
dition of things.

easily pt66ure S2p0, 600. By Concerted
action the possibtlity of Virginia con-
tributing SO, 600, 600 to, tho World's Fair
becomes o probability: .a
The third requirement. is one of pos
sibilities, and may add of responsibili-
ties. Virginia's romantic history should
be presented in panoramic review from
its settlement at jamestown to the pre-
sent period and including it's famous
military events. A museum containing
every object of interest procurable
would he an attractive feature. Topo-
graphical Virginia affords the recently
formed real estate exchange an opport-
unity to present the beauties of Vir-
ginia's hills and rivers, mountains and
seacoast in panoramic or steroscopic ef
feet, and the plans which they should
follow should DO copied in presenting
the beanGics of the Hotel Roanoke, the
Hygcia, the Princess Anne, the New
Atlantic and the Paramount. With
Ban tholdi, believe in the presentation
of Giving pictures" For instance,
what could bo moro interesting than a
prototype of tho Pulaski furnace with
it's workingmcn presenting evidence of
the manner in which zinc is reduced.
The Norfolk peanut factories would be
q feature of interest to thousands OF
people. Lynchburg and Richmond
should be represented by the cigar,
cigarette and plug tobacco manufac-
tories.
Every town in Virginia shoul present
its industries in working form wheererer
practicable, as where several cities
had feature in common, combination
could be formed for the presentation
Of that feature. Thousands of sugges-
tions can be made and the newspapers
should call for them from the people.
Like collecting news, the novice is often
doubtful Of what news or exhibits are,
but remember that strangers would
like to see the Pocahontas coke ovens,
and witness the reduction of iron ore
into pig, and other like operations.
To Virginia the Worlds Fair will be
Of more than q passing Importance.
This quadri-centcnnial, in addition to
presenting her resources, will bring to-
gether the people of the different sec
tions, and do a great deal to span tho
chasm of Misrepresentation and in
justice which has always existed be-
tween the South and the other sections
of this country. Virginia should not
do otherwise than to take leading
part in the exhibition at Chicago.

AN INTERESTING LECTURE.
DIR. Fitzwillian on 1.-THE Battle of Life
Last Night.

DIR. Fitzwilliam on "Thc Battle of Life
Last Night.
Rev. c. ii. Fitzwilliam delivered his
lecture on ''Tho Battle OF Life" at tho
Methodist Church to an audience that
comfortably filled the auditorium. Mr..
Fitzwilliam is a very forcible lecturer,
and his style of delivery is most enter
tanning. The."Battle Of Life" is sub
ject that is especially interesting to
young people. He pointed out to them
how to start in life to secure prosper
avoid and battle against the tempta-
lions that beset the pathway of life.
Tho lecturer begins with the assump-
ton that the start is made from a
happy Christian home, where tho young
man b AS been under the blessed influ-
ence of q mothers prayers, which is like
a good anchor. After leaving the par
entail roof to encounter life's possibili-
ties and probabilities, the choice Of
companions is Of the utmost i'm portance.
The formation of habits, such as drink
ing, smoking and the use of profane
language, is the result of not exercising
due care in the selection of companions.
Mr.. Fitzwilliam next took up the qucs-
ton Of poverty. Honest poverty is no
disgrace, but dishonest poverty is de-
spisable. He cited the fact that many
ofthe best men the world has ever known
arose from the ranks of honest poverty,
among them being Columbus, Whitfield,
Webster, Girard, Oliver Cromwell, Elilhu
Burnett, Shakespeare, Peabody, Abra-
ham Lincoln, and James A. Garfield.
To be poor in the start of life is ofton
the cause Of much thankfulness to God,
for it has engendered reliance, and
taught the individual to go forward un-
til he merges out Of poverty into the
affluence of Gods richest blessings.
The lecture was complete with strong
points and those who did not hear it
missed q treat
