The world il often Indifferent OF
unjust, but now and then its action
is guided by high impulses which do
great credit to the human heart.
This Is especially the case when an
appeal Is made in behalf Of deserving
womanhood. A case in point is the
application Of Miss Carrie Kirby
Smith, the eldest daughter Of the
late Gen. E. Kirby Smith, to be
appointed postmistress at Sewanee,
Tenn. Apparently without influ-
ence or friends, she sent in her mod
est petition for appointment, and II
was filed away in the usual obscnrity
among thousands Of other similar
papers from Ill over the country.
First, . reporter made paragraph
Of the fact, stating that the care aud
comfort of . widowed mother and
dependent little brothers and sisters
devolved on the yonng lady. Then
the press began to discuss II more
generally, and many influential men
interested themselves in Miss Car
RES behalf. Finally. the Grand
Army Of the Republic, remembering
the fathers soldierly qualities and
honorable character, gave the young
girl their hearty endorsement, and
nothing now seems to stand in her
way to success. - It Is certain that
President Cleveland will make the
appointment In due time. lone
touch Of nature makes the whole
world KIM" and the blue and the
gray will be still nearer together
on account Of this little incident,
whereby the burden Of . tender
young life viii be made lighter
and many hearts made happier

COTTON.

American cotton is being more firm.
" enthroned than ever before, and
the new strength and power Of the
monarch Is due to the fact that his
subjects are making their planta-
ton supplies. and are preparing to
face the possibilities Of . six cent
market.
The permanence Of its sway Is A.
sured by the future cheapness Of
the staple.
At anything under seven cents .
pound, We will hold . monopoly and
drive tbs rest Of the world out Of its
culture, for here TO the farmer who
makes his own supplies, cotton
planting 1t seven cents . pound
will be the most remunerative Of cul.
tivated crops.
With cheap cotton our monopoly
will be permanent, and With full corn
cribs and smoke-houses on the
farms We can make money out ofcot-
ton 1t prices destructive to this in
dustry in any other country.-Aber-
deem Examiner.

PAPERS ADVICE TO
LINK vs.. PEN"
BY MRS. I. CRARY sADLIR.

The Ink and the Pen are ct outs, see.
What pity that they cannot agree.
But the Ink II determined to have the
last word,
II "the Pen = mightier than the Sword. "
Not the s'Printer's Ink, that's not in
the fight
IT'S the Ink that scribblers use when
they write.
For 'sPfinter's Ink" I'd have you to
know,
Would ne'er condescend to get mixed
The Ink asks the Pen, with . sasqfro;d
cir,
What the Pen could do II 4 was not
there1
It might scrape and scratch, but 'twould
be In vain,
Thsrs'd still be 80 missing link" In the
The endlsss-chain, from the brain to
the world,
Like . band-saw IL constantly being
whisled
The machine % "mighty" to propel
this force
WIN not from the Ink e'sr seek q
divorce.
So the pulse OF the world they will
touch, I ween.
And the Pen and the Ink win ever be
EteEnally welded and cutting no caper,
Yet worthless couple they'd be with
out PAPRR.
s. the Papers advice, (and It's cheap.
I think,)
Is for the Pen to stick close to the Ink.
And II 'Laurel" u needed to crown the
pair,
The Pap~, like "TAxylos will have
plenty to spare"
For u 'shand and the Pen" should be
Of the past,
The Ink would fade, but the Paper
would last
So the verdict b this, GUS . wise one.
I ksn,)
Strength lies In the xAioa OF Ink, Paper
and Pen!
