The Oid Soldiers, E'Ic Me.

Thanksgiving day was observed and cn-
joycd in this town last Thursday i'm a way
it was never before. The event was one
| wi i III will! long be remembered by those
who were present. 1t was an occasion
! unlike the many of latter day gatherings
because it was devoid of all feelings and
discussions except that of having good
time and talking over the scenes and Incl
drnCcS of years gone by when mems souls
were tried. 1t was indeed Il joyful day.
All Nature seemed to be in harmony with
the people for the warm rays of the sun
bcnm4d with comforting and inspiring in
ilucnCCS. Early in the day the old vctcr-
ans begun to make their appearance and
rs each arrived he would be met by q
brother vet who would give hearty shake
Of the hand and recall some wcll known
war incidcn, in their lives. All the fore
noon WAS spent in this kind Of talk and
here and there over the streets could be
seen little knots of the old veterans in
contemplation of the past. 1t was the
first meeting of Confederate soldiers under
the auspices of Camp Wolf Creek United
Comic leratC Veterans. AT about twelve
o'clock about SIXTY of them formed in front
Of the old court house in Il row under the
command of Capt. J. \. Girls" and by
twos marched to rear Of the new court
house where the nccCSSariCS for the inner
man were served. Here in solid line
they took it war fashior-somc standing,
some knrclug, some sullntting, some Bit-
Ting and in many other pOsiitionS while the
ladies were arranging the well filled bask-
els for their disposition. Everybody ate,
laughed and talked ami the old vets recall
cd many Il hard SCrimmagc for something
to ia, during the war.
The only disappointment to them was
the failure Of the speakers invited to ap-
pear. Yet they did not go away without
hearing cheering words. Mr.. }. Z. Boggs,
DR.. ". II. Field. Rev. j.. NJ. McKissick
and Prof. }. Ollanlon were called upon
and responded in timely and pointed
speeches.
There were about two hundred and fifty
prc:cGt aad the WIS n"t.t thing that passed
or happened which would offend the most
sensitive. Everybody went away well
pleased and satisfied.
1t WAS day long to he remmcmbcrcl

The Cost or bringing m Girls.

The reason a man Is SO delighted becauae
the little stranger Is q boy Is not because he
thinks his own sex SO far superior to ours,
but because he knows how much less ex.
pense and responsibility a boys bringing
up entails" said pretty young mother,
with decided air of wisdom that left no
room for argument. "A girl is constant
source of anxiety from the cradle to the
grave OF course the training OF a boy like
wise is great responsibility to the parents.
but SO many things are condoned in the son
that would forever brand the daughter that
there is where the great secret Of the ioy
always expressed at the birth of a boy
comes in.
Then look at their clothes. A little boy
has two or three suits, leather leggings, a
little pea jacket and a tam, and he is lust as
well dressed as any of the other small ma
hobs in the neighborhood. You cannot if
you try make him anything more than a
stylish little chap, whose clothes are of ex-
cellent quality and numerous enough for
his actual wants. But girl. Oh, dearl
Their needs never cease 1t is white dresses
with needlework and white dresses with
lace, china silk slips in all colors, sashes,
muffs, dainty little cloaks, numerous hats,
pins, fancy and expensive underclothes, and
a hundred and one little fallals that are
part and parcel of the feminine wardrobe.
but which are never required for a boy.
"Then us they grew older the boys ex-
pense decreases, though the worriment
about him increases. In little while he
earns enough to buy his clothes at least,
but his sister grows more and more expen-
sive with every year. Unless parents are
very rich it is no wonder they rejoice when
they are blessed with boys rather than girls
to support. "-Philadelphia Times.

Recollections of George cruIkshank.

One of the heads which rise out of nv
witches caldron as / look back at the peo-
pie have known is that of George Cruik-
shank, very like kings head in MAC
beth, grim, characteristic, with half sim
pie, half adventurous expression and the
strangest whiskers and mustachios-"t those
wonderful whiskers," my father calls them.
Unlike the shapes that usually rise out of
the caldrons of witches, this is a full length
figure which comes before me, with MILL
tary legs and straps.
When Mr.. Cruikshank came into the
room, he used to appear to us suddenly, as
II he had Just lcaped off charger. | have
also confused recollection of once driving
to his house, which was surrounded nv
shade trees. Inside it was all crowded
with books and curtains and furniture, and
still further darkencd by the shadow Of
some impending trouble, which my father,
as was his way, was trying to ward Off.
am afraid that in Mr.. Cruikshauk's life
there We're many catastrophcs, which not
all his delightful powers over the spirits
and fairies of the world of fancy were sufli-
Gent to avert. Who does not know his
realm of fays and pucks and the weird
sptites OF the bottle, and the burglars and
goblns and bold dcsperadoes out of Aims
worth and "pliyer TWIST" But best Of
all, think, among the playfellows he con
cured into our nursery we loved Lord Bate

Savagcs always walk with their toes
turned in, for two reasons. In the first
place, tho foot naturally falls in that posi-
ton when it has never been confined by
boots or the ankles distorted by high heels,
In the long stride of the savage the leg
swings freely like pendulum round the
center of gravity, which is somewhere be-
tween it and the other leg. In the swing
the abductor muscles of the inside of the
thigh bring the sole of the foot under the
center of gravity, and in doing so slightly
rotate the foot toward the inner line, turn
ing the toe in. Convenience is also on the
side of the natural position of the foot in
the case of the savage, for he has to do
much walking through long grass and I'M
dergrowth in forests
A moments reflection will show how
very much his progress would be impeded
If he turned his toes out to catch these OBJ
stacles instead of brushing them aside and
outward as he now does. Lastly, the saw
age uses his foot much more az a help to
his hands than we do, and it is obvious that
IN doing this be must turn his toes in

A New York woman spending several
weeks in European hotel, where the win
dows of her room opened on gallery that
was common to the entire floor, noticed the
difference between the English children
romping there all day and some American
children who also used it for a playground.
The English youngsters called and laughed
without the shrill screams and noise of her
little eornpatriots, and in running By her
windows the former never thought of look
ing in, while the little Americans frequent
~ stopped and stared in pleased curiosity
ut her movements.
The system OF the English household
teaches the children to respect the rights
OF others, the reverse of which is n great
fault of American children With little
more OF this courtesy the world would hold
no peer of the American child whose beau
ty, wit and remarkable self poise is the re-
suit OF his composite heritage from all ma
tionalities.-New York Times.

Trees of smaller growth, like children,
arc found dwelling and growing in and
around the knobs and in grassy fields, and
sometimes we see them growing in grand
and solemn, because silent, procession, as
though performing a grand march toward
heAYenward perfection. Their growth in
beauty sheds their foliage upon the earth
at their feet, to be absorbed by their roets
after the chemical actions of the atmos-
phertc forces, which reduce the decayed
leaves to soft, pnlpy food, which is eagerly
gathered up and utilized as food and liner
neurishment for a still smaller under.

nourishment for all things that come under
