T. J. SIMMONS, A. NJ, Pres

Location unSurpassed new and hand
some furniture throughout; large addi-
tional building, more than doubling the
school actual capacity for boarding pu-
pills, though the number Of boarders will
positively be limited to fewer than were
formerly crowded into the old building.
Health is not less impC rtant than mental
training, and the ply welfare of
young ladies will be looked after here as
at no other college in the South. Single
beds will be used-a separate bed for
each pupil. A part of the Physical Gull
ture Department will be included in the
regular curriculum, without additional
charge.
The faculty will be selected with great
care, and the instruction will be the best
thorough at every point.
The musical advantages can easily be
shown to be unequalled elsewhere in the
South.
The departments of Art, Elocution
and Physical Culture will be under the
direction of specialists of high grade.
The social training will have due at
tention, and the aim will be to develop
the highest type of refined AMI cultured
womanh0Gd.
No sectaran teaching will be allowed,
but the great aim of the College will be
to create by earno st and painstaking eff
fort such a MORAL ATMOSPHERE as will
tend to develop the noblest type IF
christian character.
ALI girls will be in the same building
with Mrs Simmons, and will be looked
after not less carefully than it they were
at home with their mothers. If your
daughter is old enough to begin school
at all, she is too old for you to deny her
the best advantages you can afford 20
give.
The FOUNDATION is the important
thing; and the greatest success in music
or art demands the earliest possible be-
ginning under the most competent OF
teachers.
In the boarding department SPECIAL
apartments Will be provided for young
children who will have the most careful
supervision and training.
While there will be very young chill
dren in the Prim ny Department, there
will be on the other hand POSTCARD
students in literature. art or music from
number of the best known Southern
colleges. If you have daug liter about
whose education you are interested, con
slider the advantages Of Union Flmale
College, and cOmmuni cate at once with
the President, who may be seen on We'd
-esday or Friday, OF this week, before
leaving for Eufaula. You cannot find
anywhere in the South better place TO
send your daughter.
The charges for board and full tnition
In regular course will be from Sl90tJ
S21O per scholastic year. French, Ger
man, etc, are NOT charged for as extras.
Special courses can be arranged for if de-
sired, emitting the studies of The regular
curriculum.
The list of extras is very short, includ-
ing Music and Art, and special lessons in
ElocutiOn and Physical Culture such as
are not included among the studies of
the regular curriculum.
If yol wish to engage a place, it is
suggested that it would be well to do SO
at once, as the number of students will
be limited, and those Who are late ia
making application will not be able to
secure mission.

From the Albany Herald.
A few days ago a Herald scribe saw
farmer in the city exhibiting several
large stalks of cotton, and they were
splendid specimens, too-well fruit2d,
very stout and yerdant. The farmer
carried the cotton stalk from one friend
TO another. and seemed to he as proud of
his possessions as the average young
A nerica is OF his first pair of red-topped
boots.
The SAID farmer handled the cotton
with genuine pride, stroking the velvety
petals with undesirable exultation and
tenderness He SAVIOR imagined he
saw-a grand future befare him. He
knew he had vast acres of such cotton at
home, which, in a few short weeks,
would begin to burst its bolls, disclosing
to his appreciative gaze broad range

Then, all, tn en-! he will bring his chill
dren together and form an army of cot

and unburden the cotton petioles of
their fruit; and, finally, to make long
story short, the heecy staple will be
ginned, packed and brought to town and
sold.

"A Reverfe Beside the Old Home Hearth.
Louise Snow, in Detroit Free Press.
The fire CLOVIS warm, on the old home
hearth, and mo its welcoming light
come the shadows, dear faces of those
of by gone Yeas.
Oh, the dear faces!
The dear memory-faces!
How bright and sweet and loving they
Sare!
Time, with his cruel finger, cannot
erase the tender mothers loving smile;
nor the remembrance Of the look of
affection from the grave kind eyes of
THE dear father.
One by one, and in groups, silently,
ness and with gentlesJ ntien, smile ON

Tlse baby sister clasps her little arms
sabout my neck; and another little face,
almost her counterpart, creeps close,
with upturned, wistful eyes, and culver
z ne Rps, that form the name nam ma.
From a fair, delicate girlish face, veil
sd by masses of waving hair, beam, with
ssistea5v love, the soft, dark eyes of my
ever constant youthful comrade
Side by side look down to me, with
syarmest welcome, the noblest faces Of
the dear brothers, who loved their coun-
Try, even more than home and dearest
kindred.
Out Of the shadows still come the dear
memory faces; until there are no more
shadows; for all the space is filed, and
bright with the dear faces of long ago.
-And my listening heart hears the echo
of the glad refrain, their silent lips. seem
go frame IN accompaniment to the loving
chances of their eyes: eve shall meet,
we shall meet, ne'er to part again.

What will he get for it? Wen, a close
guess would be seven cents per pound.
He lets it 60 at that, and finds at the
setthng-up time that he is paid-almost
wholly-for his cotton in little strip Of
paper upon which is written mort
gage"
1t will be hard very hard-but he
can't help it, and 50 he will return
home with nothing to represent the
many long days of wearisome toll but
that thin strip OF paper and few
meagre purch Asses. He doesn't carry
those thousand and one little presents
that had been promised the children
while they picked cotton in friendly
rivalry for some special reward prom
ised by papa. And so, with saddened
heart and depressed soul, the weary
tiller of the soil returns home, not only
disappointed himself, but carrying dis
appointment, also, 70 the expectant fam

Now, that's the effect. Let's see about
the cause
While that farmer was raising that
seven cents cotton he was buying meat
from the west for from ten to fifteen
cents; lard at from nine to twelve cents
and one dollar bushel for meal.
You certainly understand the cause
now, and it is not necessary to say more
about it, The argument presents itself
and cannot be mistaken.
In view of these facts one is prompted
to ask: Is there any wonder that the
man who farms after this fashion re-
turns home with empty wagon? Is
there ady wonder that the few hogs rails
ed on the farm sicken and die? Are
they not neglected? No one seems to
care what becomes Of them. They are
turned into the woods to root hog or
give up the ghost, and it is in this way
that they endure hardships of the sea-
sons, contracting diseases from which
they die.
But it is needless to continue ON this
strain. Any one can see the folly Of
raising seven cent cotton to the neglect
of raising fifteen cent meat, when the
latter is just as easy if not easier.
Maybe, some day-and we hope it is
not far distant-the agricultural class of
this section will come to realization of
the fact that the production of hog and
hominy is the salvation of the people of
the south.

Engraving on Stamps,

In looking over collection of stamps one
Is struck with the variety and pecuIiarities
OF the designs. Let US glance over the
pages of a well filled album. What collec-
ton of engravings could be more interest
Ing than these we have heres We see the
finely executed stamps designed by artists
in Europe and in this GENTRY. All shades
and colors ever mixed are represented.
The coats Of arms of many countries are
upon their stamps, and we are soon able to
recognize the heraldic emblems wherever
we see them. We also have portrait gal
lery of the rulers of the world. Notice one
Of the stamps of the Hawaiian Islands We
have a beautiful view of the harbor of
Honolulu. The stamps of Panama illus
trate the isthmus separating the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans. Notice also the land
scape views on the stamps of Liberia,
Nicaragua. Salvador and Costa Rica.
On the stamps of Egypt we see the pyra
mid and the sphinx. The triangular
stamps of Cape of Good Hope are very odd.
These stamps all bear the figure of 'Hope''
in a reclining posture. The stamps of Qua
temala are adorned by the typical parrot,
and those of Peru by the llama. West Aus
tralia proudly displays her swan. New
foundland represents her fishing industries
by a seal on some of her issues, and a fish
ing smack with full spread sails upon an
other, and lately has placed her beloved
pet, the Newfoundland dog, upon her
stamps.-Ohio State Journal.
