About Receiving Gifts.

From the receivers standpoint all gifts
Ilay be divided into things that we want
and things that we don't want. 1t takes
no particular skill or grace to receive
things that we want, but as, in times Of
general giving, like Christmas, the larger
part Of the gifts We get are things that
we don't want, that branch of receiver
ship is worth attention. The two ordi-
nary reasons for not wanting things are
the vulgar one that they do not strike Us
as ~intrinsically desirable, and the more
complex reason that we don't want TO re-
ceive them from the particular giver. A
general remedy applicable to reluctances
due TO either Of these causes is to keep
s~trenuOusly in the mind the happiness Of
the giver in giving.
Remembering that, you are delighted
with a trife from some Il you love, be
cause it makes You happy to have been
even paSsiveFy instrumental in procuring
him the happiness Of giving; applying the
same principle, you can accept ever SO
costly a gift from some One for whom
You care little without any irksome sense
Of Obligation. since Of purse the giver
had the best Of it any way, and it is a
great deal kinder and more generous to
sacrifice ones personal inclinatiOns and
accept, than to refuse. Remember per
sistently that by receiving with due grace
you secure to another person a desirable
form Of happiness.-Scribner,s.

ThR ZOIiaCHl Ii.ht.

The curious phenomenon Of the zodi
acal light may nov be seen in the early
morning skies q little before sunrise. In
this latitude it takes the form Of a por-
ton Of an ellipse whose longest diameter
is inclined somewhat from the perpen-
dicular, and may be looked for in that
part Of the sky where the sun is about to
appear. Its pearly gray light is caused
by the reflection Of the suns rays from
countless sWarms of meteOr8 which re-
volve about him at different distances.
1t has recently been suggested that these
neteOrs are the medium by which the
electrical connection between the sun

relatives thought the affair was ended,
but the young folks still loved each other.
There were some private negotiations of
which her relatives did not know. An
other license was procured, but the fact
was not published in the papers. The
same minister was engaged again. Miss
IDA Porter, who did not usually pick cot

The Fatal Grippe Going Over the Path 1t
DesOlated Last Winter.
The grippe that was so fatal in the
North and in North Carolina last year is
now prevailing in the south, and very Sc
verely in some places. There are many
cases in Wilmington and elsewhere.
We fear now that it has taken up its
abode in Il country, aud will be a dis
ease to be dreaded h~enceforth. 1t is a
much more serious disease than was at
first supposed. In North Carolina in
1890, there were a great many deaths
caused by the grip probably q thousand
or more.

Esteemed by all Who Know Him.
1t is a waste Of ink to tell about +. J.
Parrish, the proprietor of the Parrish
warehouse.
All men know him, inside and outside
the city, and al men like him. We
write him this time, not in the nature Of
an advertisement, but concerning him as
one Of the men who has had faith in Dur
ham, who lost money here and who by
honest work is trying to make more
money, and who is succeeding. But in
doing so lie helps farmers make money
and they in turn help all the town make
money.
Mr.. Parrish is q citizen who stands as
high as any-and his warehouse is a
popular place to sell tobacco. The
highest prices are always paid there, and
the cash always comes.
When Mr.. Parrish gets Strengthened
out a little more he will show Durham
people some genuine enterprise. lie has
already exhibited plenty Of genuine grit.
Such men as Ed Parrish not only build
towns but they sustain towns, and TIE
GLOBE wishes that there were more men
like him
And in closing we wish to remind our
numerous country readers that the Par
ish warehouse is still in it for all the
trade that you can bring them.
The highest prices are always paid and
there is a very good place when the next
brake is on. Try him a whirl and then
come and kick us out, if he is not a win
ner.
Mr.. Parrish, besides conducting the
warehouse is also largely interested in
manufacturing several brands Of smOk-
ing tobacco which have been made pop
ular and which still increase in the way
Of sales and popularity.
MUSICAL HOMES ARE HAPPY HOMES

Have you ever noticed it? Call to

a good piano or organ in the house. Are
they not brighter and more attractive
than those where the divine art of music
never enters? To be sure it costs to buy
a good instrument, but it lasts many
years, and will pay its cost a thousand

GB The democrats of Ohio are fondly
hoping that Mr.. Cleveland will come
out and make few speeches for them.

land possesses to make his recorded
utterances ON the currency question

form. Mr.. Cleveland will ''lay low =
Minneapolis Tribune.
eBThe policy of reducing the trea-
sury deposits in the national banks to
reasonable limits was advocated by the
republicans in the canvass of 1888, and
was pushed by Secretary Window with
as much yigor as was consistent with
safety. Secretary Foster, therefore. is
merely continuing the good work be-
gun by his predecessor and recommends
ed by Blaine and Harrison three years
ago.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Free trade and free silver That
is the democratic shibboleth in Ohio.
And as the contest there is confessedly
along lines of national policy, Mr..

CLEvELAND'S DILEMMA.
Trouble Ahead for the Pulled Idol OF
Mugwumpery.

Trouble Ahead for the Pulled Idol OF
Mugwumpery.
While Mr. Cleveland may easily rec
oncile himself to the Ohio democratic
idea of the tariff, how is he to meet the
silver question? The Cleveland plat
form is as uncompromisingly for
free silver as it is for free
trade. 1t demands ''free and I'M
limited coinage of silver as well as
gold, which means, if it means any
thing, the ultimate driving out of gold
and the substitution of silver. This
might benefit silver mine owners, but
would inevitably debase the currency
and bring disaster to the people as a
whole.
Mr.. Cleveland has emphatically COM
mitted himself against the silver heresy
In his famous letter to "Hon. A. j.
Warner and others. members of the
Forty-eighth congress" written from
Albany, February "a, 1885, he took the
strongest ground against free silver,
portrayed the calamities that must fol-
low free coinage, and urged "a present
suspension of the purchase and coin
age of silver" In his letter read at the
dinner of the Reform club in New
York, February IL. 1891, Mr. Cleveland
again stoutly declared his hostility to
''the reckless experiment of free, un-
limited and independent silver coin
age" -precisely what the Ohio demo-
cratic platform proposes. Nothing
could be more uncompromising than
Mr.. Cleveland's attitude hitherto on
the silver question. Yet if he goes to
Ohio he will speak on a platform that
demands the Inauguration OF 1.-The reck-
less experiment" which he has so un-
sparingly denounced, and in favor Of
Gov Campbell, who seems to have no
convictions whatever on the subject,
having declared: 81 am willing to
chance it."-TrOy Times

EAGLE AND ROOSTER.
Difference Between Representa- tive Birds
of Republicans and Democrats.

of Republicans and Democrats.
At the, recent republican convention
in Ohio the eagle, king of birds, was Sc
lected as the distinguishing symbol for
the ticket in the coming state election.
At the still more recent democratic con-
vention the strutting cock was chosen
as the emblem, and thus under the pro-
visions of the Australian voting law
the two tickets will be distinguished
from each other-on the one side the
rooster and the barnyard; on the other
the bird of Jove and the starry flag.
In selecting the male hen as their
emblem the democrats have chosen a
fowl who in his way is good fighter
and great braggart. But it is never
safe to assume he has come out ahead
because he is on the fence growing
with all his might over an alleged VIC
tory. There is no significance to his
shrill yell except that he has not been
quite knocked out, for he crows not
only at victory but rejoices If not badly
licked. He usually crows when he hears
some other rooster Growing, and cele-
brates with more stentorian voice the
achievements of his harem in egg-lay-
ing and chicken hatching than the hens
themselves. He is vulgar bird in his
habits and prefers barnyard for his
place of recreation to the highest @rie
that can be offered him. He is as vain
and strutting as peacock, and moth
ing more delights him than piece o!
