Speak Kindly.

A young lady had gone out walking.
She forgot to take her purse with her,
and had no money in her pocket. Pres
emily she met little girl with basket
on her arm. "Please, Miss, will you
buy something from my basket ?" said
the little girl, showing variety of
book marks, watch cases, needle books,
etc. "I'm sorry l can't buy anything
to-day" said the young lady. 81 have
not any money with me. Your things
look very pretty" She stopped mo-
ment, and spoke few kind words to
the little girl, and then as she passed
she said again, "I'm very sorry l can't
buy anything OF you to-day
40 Miss" said the little girl, l,"you've
done me just as much good as if you
had. Most persons that l meet say,
"Get away with you!" But you have
spoken kindly and gently to me, and
l feel deal better"
That was "considering the poor" ;"
How little it cost to do that! Let US
learn to speak kindly and gently to
the poor and suffering. If we have
nothing to give let us at least give
them our sympathy.

Young man! This Is for You.

Save part of your weekly earnings
even if it be no more than quarter of
dollar, and put your savings monthly
in savings bank.
Buy nothing till you can pay for it,
and buy nothing that you do not need.
A young man who has grit enough
to follow these rules will have taken
the first step upward to success in busi-
ness. He may be compelled to wear
a coat year longer; even if it be un-
fashionable: he may have TO live in a
smaller house than some of his young
acquaintance; his wife may not spar
kle with diamoads nor be resplendent
in silk or satin just yet; his children
may not be dressed as dolls or popin-
jays; his table may be plain but whole
some, and the whiz of the beer or
champagne cork may never be heard
in his dwelling; he may have to get
along without the earliest fruit or veg
etables; he may have to abjure the
club-room, the theatre, and the gam
bling hell, and to reverence the Sab
bath day and read and follow the pre-
cepts of the Bible instead:-but he
will be BETTER off in every way for his
self-discipline. Yes, he may do all
these without detriment to his man.
hood, or health, or character. True,
empty-headed folk may sneer at him
and effect to pity him, but he will find
that he has grown strong-hearted and
brave enough to stand the laugh of the
foolish He has become an independ-
ent man. He never owes anybody,
and so he is no mans slave He has
become master of himself, and a mas
ter of himself will become a leader
among men, and prosperity will crown
his every enterprise.
Young man! life's discipline and
life success come from hard work
andearly self-denial; and hard-earned-
success is all the sweeter at the time
when old years climb upon your shoul-
ders and you need propping up.

The Immigration Convention

ne lmmtgIatOn Convention al
Asheville recommended that each of the
Southern States appropriate at least
$z5 900 to provide for State exhibits
at the Worlds Fair to be held in Chi
cago, and it is said Gov. Fowle will
recommend to the Legislature when
it meets thati appropriate that amount
for this State. Considering the efforts
which should and will be made by the
individuals and corporations Of this
State, $4,000 appropriation will
make a creditable exhibit and one
which will attract considerable atten-
ton at the great fair. No state in the
South can make better exhibit of min
erals, stones and timbcrs than North
Carolina and these are the principle
inducements for the envestment ofcap-
iialists. 1t is hoped that the Legis-
lature will appropriate this amour,
and let North Carolina present an ex.
hibit which will render credit to hel
as a state and which will be of ultimate
benefit to Der industrialiy.-Raleigi

Some Advice tor the New Year.
High Point Enterprise.] ]

Of course we do not expect the year
to pass by without any troubles or
trials, if so when the year was ended
we had only existed not lived. Life
is made up of difficulties, trials and
disappointments, but it also has its
bright days and to them we should
look. Never look on the dark side Of
life. There is plenty in life that is
pleasing and that will bring happiness.
Tis' true last year was a disastrous
year to many people and some sections
but still no one has died from food or
raiment who has tried to live. And
if last year was hard one it is the
more urgent upon us to put forth
every effort the coming year and
make back what was lost last. Be
economical! 1t is very essential to the
prosperity of a community or individ-
ual that the expenditures shall be less
than the income. \.
The Wilmington Messenger says
"The man who spends one dollar and
five cents and makes one dollar will
become a bankrupt. On the other
hand he who makes one dollar and
spends but ninety five cents will get
rich" We do not mean for you to be
st;ngy. Never get too poor to take
your county paper, because it will pay
you more than you spend for it. Give
something to others that are in a worse
condition than you are. Don't fool
away two months OF the year talking
politics. Don't look too much after
your neighbors' business but more
closely after yours. To the people
of High Point we will say, let us all
work harder, for High Point than we
have ever done before, we have the
ball started now let's keep it going.
Induce every man that will make a
good citizen to cast his lot with us.
Encourage those who are here to re-
main, and the first thing we know we
will have city of which we will all be
proud. Let every one put their shoul-
ders to the wheel and the first day OF
January 1892 will show what united
effort will accomplish.

A Debt to the South.
New York Star.

The South is furnishing an object
lesson which alleged Republican
statesmen would do we'll to study.
While these gentlemen have been en-
deavoring to push through polit-
ical legislation that would create
race animosities and disturb the
relations between labor and capital
throughout the Southern States, that
section is rendering vital service to
the business interests of t.se whole
country.
The cotton crop that has just been
gathered is one ofthe largest on record.
1t is in fact estimated at close to g.
ooo, 900 bales. India, Russia and
other countries have entered into COM
petition with the United States to an
extent which affects our exports OF
grain. But Americas supremacy as
the great cotton producer of the world
has never been challenged. The heavy
export movement of the Southern cot
ton is the main reason for the fact that
the balance of foreign trade is in our
favor. Within the past week five or
six millions of dollars in gold have
been brought here from Europe, with
very beneficial effect in allaying the
prevalent financial stringency and in
restoring tone and confidence to the
money market. Every dollar it can
be presumed, represents payment of
balances due by Europe for our cotton.
Moreover, within few months some
1000, 900 more bales of cotton will
probably be shipped to Europe, the
large crop and lower prices stimulating
foreign purchases of the staple. This
represents $500. 900 or more,
which will 60 to our credit in the in
| ternational balance sheet.
The importance of such factor in
attracting foreign money to this coun-
try and thereby aid the restoration Of
normal business activity cannot be
overestimated. In financial and trade
circles it is regarded as the principal
ground for confidence in the future.
This great service the South is rem
dering to the industry and commerce
OF the whole country. To embarrass
business and agricultural interests at
the South by partisan Legislation would
be an injury to the trade and finances
of every section.

bless him." has been the uttered and
unuttered benediction that unnumbered
thousands have felt after perusal of
his Christmas stories. No greater
blessing could come to any man than
to be filled with the gentle and gener-
Gus emotions which his stories inspire!
How little and contemplate does he
make the selfish appear and how lordly
and God like the "cheerful giver'' of
love and joy! 1t is not in gifts, save
as an expression, that carries joy and
happiness to human hearts-nor is
there generosity in gifts to those who
do not need them. The true Christmas
spirit is merely the true Christian spirit
applied to particular period of time.
Dickens has taught us that better than
all the sermons preached during a
thousand years. He has carried joy
into humble homes made more royal
at Christmas than the palace of king
by Christian generosity and Christmas
love and fellowship. 1t is to such
writer's as Dickens that the heart turns
after the glow of the holiday, and in
them we find an inspiration to right
living, true generosity and the Christi
anity that alone leavens the world.
After the heart has been touched and
warmed by this master mind and in
terpreter Of human hearts, where else
shall we turn for profitable and helpful
reading? In no line has American
latter-day ingenuity and talent
achieved more signal success than in
Christmas productions. The world is
full Of Christmas literature for men,
women and children. In the multitude
of books and periodicals, those who
direct the reading of the people,
especially the children, have no easy
task from which to make selections.
AS in selecting all other books, much
care must be taken and wisdom shown.
Rev. Robert Collier gives an invaluable
rule which we all may adopt without
question. He says:
"If, when l read book about God, l
find it has put Him further from me than
He was before; or about man, that it has
put me farther from him; or about this
world l live in, that my book has shaken
down On it a newlook Of desolation, turn
ing it ;Ato a sort of desert; or about life,
that it has made life seem less worth liv-
ing; or about moral principles, that they
are not so clear and strongin my heart as
they were when this man began to open
his mind to me: then know that on any
OF these cardinal things in our human
life, my relations to God, to my fellow
man, to the world l live in, and to the
great moral principles on which all things
rest and turn,-to me this Is not good
book"

be instructed to support the Sub-Treas-

there should be the fullest and freest
discussion of the merits and dement's
OF the Sub Treasury ssplan" with a view
to ascertaininS its practicability, and a
scheme of reform. 1t has been said
that majority of the farmers Ill North
Carolina were opposed to the Sub
Treasury bill. If this opposition exists,
now is the time for it to manifest itself.
Alliancemen of North Carolina are i'm

But they are not welded to any special
scheme of bringing it about. If a bet

The Progessiue Farmer is delighted
to know that way to compromising
the differences between Vance and
the Alliancemen of North Carolina
has been found; and it sees splendid

careful and wise embodiment of Alli-
