HINTS TO GUESTS.
In Cities Especially Relations Should
Carefully Considered.

In Cities Especially Rotations Should BE
Carefully Considered.
The relations between a visitor and
her hostess never require to be more
carefully considered than when the
visit is made in town. In the country
visitor has very little opportunity of
taking her own line; on the contrary,
she has to follow the routine arranged
by her hostess, and has only to acqui-
esce in what is proposed to be done
each day. 1t is different in town,
where the rule is for host and host
ess to accept invitation for themselves,
whether a visitor will belstaying with
them at the time or not, although a
hostess generally informs the intended
visitor beforehand of her dinner en-
gagements, to give her the opportunity
of making arrangements for herself in
the evenings in question; for when
host and hostess dine out their visitor
is usually expected to do the same at
the house of relative or friend.
Again, as regards evening parties
and dances, it much depends upon
whether the visitor is young and
pretty girl or lady of middle age, as
to asking permission to take her or not.
In the generality of cases hostess
prefers not to ask this favor, and to
allow her visitor to amuse herself. To
an ordinary afternoon at home a visit
or is taken as a matter of course, but
to no other entertainment, and a visitor
is most unreasonable when, as too Oft
en- follows, she shows evident displeas-
ure at not being included in the long
standing engagements of her hostess,
or that they are not given up on her
account. AS the obligation is incurred
by the visitor, she should respect her
hostess plans and fall in with them,
and consult her as to all engagements
she desires to make independently Of
her. Otherwise a hostess feels that
she is put into rather the position of a
landlady, and that her town house is
little better than hotel to the visitor
who makes use of it.
Shopping and visiting are great
temptations to most visitors in town,
but the convenience of hostess should
never be sacrificed to such allurements,
and visitor should endeavor to hit
the happy medium and not give her
hostess too little or too much of her
society.-N. Y. Advertiser.

Keen 8 Farm Account.

There is a large field for the farmer
to work over in order to find out what
his receipts and expenses are. The
farmer knows the price he received for
his butter, but may not know what the
cost was 1t is not difficult to arrive at
an estimate of the cost of any article if
accounts are kept. Progressive farm
ers keep an account with each animal,
weighing the food and charging there
for. Even the fields are entered in the
book and accounts kept with them. 1t
is an extra, work, but it is the only
way to know what the farm is doing.

For Dinner.

A learned doctor pleading for soup
on every dinner table says: "a person
comes to dinner weary and hungry,
and needs, first, something to stimu-
late the secretions of the stomach.
The frse course, hot soup, does this,
by its action upon the nerves which
control the blood vessels. Taking the
soup slowly is an aid to digestion, and
if not "a favorite dish, hot fish or oys-
tiers can be substituted, serving the
same purpose. The joint or roast can
then be taken with benefit to the sys-
tenn, and the game, vegetables and
sweets should follow in their order,
not necessarily in courses, for the plain
family dinner Philadelphia Ledger.

The millennium has arrived. She
came in on the silver vestibule Friday
night at $50. A meeting of the citi-
zens of Raleigh, irrespective of party,
was called to discuss the financial
question and take steps to have dele

be held at Memphis this week. About
two hundred and fifty people were
aboard. Mr.. M. T. Leach, Democrat,

road Commissioner Wilson, Pop, was
called on for a speech and was literally
applauded. The millennium is a sue

lard country in the world to-day that
has one-third az much money In circla,
ton per capita as the United States
have" Statistics show that this state
mant ia true. But the United States
statistics are false. The per capita
circulation here includes all the money
ever made by this government, which
amounts to about $23 per capita, no
allowance being made for the millions
of dollars in redeemed paper currency
that have been destroyed, nor for the
concentration of money. The actual
circulation is about 81 70, being less
than the circulation in any silver coun-
try, except China, and but little more
than they have there. Mexico and
Russia are far more prosperous than
the United States at present. Values
are on the increase in all silver coun-
tries, while they are rapidly declining
here.
Fifth-"There is not a silver stan
dard country in the world to-day where
the laboring man receives fair pay for

true. Bat does he receive fair pay in

few instances where labor has kept up
wages by organization, they have gone
down. Since silver was demonetized
in the United States two years ago,
wages have declined more than 80 per
cent. Farmers don't get one third as

products now and in the past. Mr..

three years a portion of the gold bugs
repented. The Raleighites invited
Ohio, called chief of the Gideonites, to
a hall in the city, and when he had
spoken unto them on the money ques,
ton they straightway fell upon his
neck and wept, for their joy was long
pent up, and Caldwell, Chief of the
Goldites, was very wroth thereat, and
said harsh things. With me accord
Hal the Levite and Coke, Beckwith,
Smith, Leach and other G~roverites
cried out against the Chief Ruler at
Washington, saying: Behold he hath
basely deceived all who cast their
suffrages for him, he that is now a
thief. And it was even so.

but Wall street and the smell of

gave the bonds. On the first Monday

and abolished the Office of county
treasurer in order to get MI. G. E..

recovery of the Office. OF course all
such tricks are making votes on the

HOW ENGLAND IS BENEFITED.

In addition to bond purchases, forced
sales of valuable property, and in othel
ways, England reaps a harvest where
she has not sown by the demonetlza
ton of silver. In the past year E1g
land has bought Is, 900, 900 ounces OF sll
yer bullion from America. Much OIL
was bought at so, IS and 60 cents pei
ounce. But for the characterization ac'
it would have cost her at least 81 per
ounce.
This silver was used to purchase wheat
in India, and there is a big profit IN
the exchange, being paid, of course oy
India. But is that all7 Not by any
means. If you remember, silver was
demonetized in India in 1898, not more
than two months before the Sherman
law was repealed here. England was
behind that outrage, for she absolutely
controls India and her $40, 0OO, 900 igno,
rant but industrious people, having
secured control in 1857 by conquest.
Thus they buy the silver at a low price
here, exchange it for wheat at a low
price in India, but charging a high
price for the silver. That ought to sat
isfy even a greedy Englishman, but it
doesn't. The Indian farmer and trades
man sells it to the government and the
government in turn borrows money
from England at a high rate of interest
to pay government expenses, for since
silver was demonetized there is no other
way to secure the money. On the other
hand, our government has already sold
bonds to the amount of 800, 600, 900 in
the past year and a half for exactly
the same purpose-to replenish the
short funds in the Treasury. Thus it
is that Grover Cleveland and his aids
have placed us at the mercy of England
in the same way, for the same purpose,
and made us the tools and servants OF
greedy England, as are the inhabitants
Of India. And yet the country is full
of tories who are glad that such is true.
Even the citizens of Charlotte and
MeckIenburg county, the birthplace
of independence, are harboring a paper
that boldly advocates such outrages
and smacks its lips for more. Wonder
how much British gold the Observer
has received or expects to receive for
this service? Certainly it isn't doing
this just for love, as it claims the
Encyclopedia business was done.

A SUGGESTION.

A lady who was born and raised in
Raleigh and who is devoted to her ma
tive state, has come here on a visit and
she, as well as every one else is de-
lighted with the beautiful monument.
But she makes a suggestion and which
it seems would meet the approval of
every one.
Just at the end of the battle of APP
pomatox when Lee saw no other alter
native but to surrender, a brilliant
charge was made, and he turning,
asked who it was that had made it.
"Gen. Grimes N. @. division" was the
answer. Then the grand R. E. Lee tax
ing off his hat saluted the division and
said God bless old North Caroline,
she is always where we want her."
Now the suggestion is this: There is
room around the base of this monu-
ment for "God bless old North Caro-
lima, she is always where we want
herr E. Lee"-to be carved and it is
earnestly hoped that the testimony of
Gen. Lee, to the valor and bravery of
North Carolina soldiers, will be per-
petuated in granite to all eternity

A OF DR.. BAILEY.

DR.. Christopher T. Bailey, died at his
residence in this city last Wednesday
morning about 9 o'clock, after an ILL
ness lasting nearly four years, aged
about 80 years.
DR.. Bailey was a native of Virginia
and graduated at a leading college in
that State. He afterwards entered the
Baptist ministry and had charge of
churches at Edenton and Warrenton,
in this State. About twenty years ago
he purchased the Biblical Recorder,
organ of the Baptist denomination in
the State. He edited the paper with
marked ability up to the beginning of
what proved a fatal illness, which was
a stroke of paralysis. Since his health
failed his second son, Mr.. William
Bailey, has done most of the editorial
work on the paper, and did remarkably
we'll for n so young.
In the death of DR.. Bailey the Bap-
list denomination lost an able worker
and the State a valuable citizen.
