Tbs Worth Of q Boy and Homee

IF you want to find out what boy
is worth, go ask his mother. By the
time she goes into the jaws of death
to give him birth, and then puts into
him her days of love and nights of
care, and he stands before her strong
and clean and tall at 81, she can tell
you what he is worth from the crown
Of his head to the soles of his feet
and when the legalized dram shop
takes hold Of him, tears him down
fiber by fiber, and puts oaths on the
lips that she used to kiss, and crushes
out his mothers hopes it is no won
der she makes an outcry. If you want
to know what home is worth, go ask
loving woman who has kept herself
as pure as Gods lilies for her marri-
age day, when, with great shine in
her eyes, she puts herself over into
the hands Of one man for better or for
worse, for richer or for poorer, until
life end. And when the dram shop
with its fearful curse crosses the
threshold of the home they built
together, and takes down their strong
tower Of hope, stone by stone, and
degrades the father of her children it
is no wonder she makes an outcry.-
Mrs. T. Lathrop.
And yet there are thousands of men
who are ready to sell the boy or the
home, anybody's boy or home, for a
little whiskey money. One boy, or
one true home, is worth thousand
times more to the general prosperity
Of the country than all the whiskey
houses small and great, in the United
States worth more commercially,
financially, politically, morally and
every other way that is of any profit.
This assertion needs no proof yJu
have only to open your eyes and
assume little honesty, and you see
the plain demonstration before you.
And yet our cities, States and general
governments will sell boys and homes
by the thousand for money already
diverted from legitimate channels and
rightful owners. What fools we NOR
tails be Wesleyan Adrocate..

The general opinion in Europe seems
to be that Cuba will this time get away
from Spain.
Don't forget the animals. Provide
comfortable winter quarters for all your
stock. 1t will pay you.
1t has been estimated that electric
railways have already displaced in the
United States no less than 25 900 horses.
- Beer made of maize or barley is
manufactured by almost every native
African people. Beer was the universal
drink of the English until the introduction
flea and coffee about 1850. The peculiar
flavor of the Bavarian beer Is due to the
use of pine tops in its manufacture.
- Asses milk Is retsiled at 6 shillipgs
per quart in England. AS one might e1-
pect, the trade is practically made by
fashionable physicians and trained nurses,
who recomend the milk in consumption
cases, and for pulmonary complaints gen
orally. Therefore the winter season finds
the donkeys' dairy exceedingly busy.
The Massachusetts, legislature has
struck upon bright idea for the dispo-
sition of the woman suffrage question.
The matter is to be left to the women
themselves. If majority Of them say at
the polls that they want to vote, then wo..
man suffrage will 60. If majority OF
them vote against the proposition or fail
to specify, that will settle the question.
"A favorite assertion of the modern
trained child's nurse Is that no healthy
baby cries. IF be is well, as he should be,
and properly clothed and looked after, he
will not cry. But, on the other hand,
some medical authorities assert that cry
ing is the chief and best exercise for
Young children, and one hospital super
intendent says that healthy baby should
cry three or four times q day at least, and
from 10 to Is minutes at time. This
world would be dull indeed If all man
kind agreed.
Burmah wonld be q paradise for the
new woman if she could be induced to
emigrate thither. The Burmese women
are, according to recent writer, the
freest on earth. Men and women are
equal. Both share inheritance alike, and
women, Like men, inherit absolutely. No
trustees stand between woman and her
property, and when she marries no
transfer is made. She keeps her own
property, her husband his. He has no
legal control over her actions at all. She
does not sacrifice her family name in
marriage. Property acquired with her
husband is held jointly in legal part

ness just as the men do. When marriage
occurs the woman will go on with her
trade, the man with his.

Less Cotton, More Money.

The wisdom OF reduced cotton acreage
and increased provision crops Is fully
vindicated by the experience OF the
Southern farmers this year. a big corn
crop and an increased meat crop provide
full barns and smoke houses, while the
short cotton crop makes the cotton that
has been raised bring prices that are pro.
jitable to the farmer. lie has raised at
home nearly everything he needs In the
way OF provision; and be has the proceeds
of his Gotten to buy CLOTHES; furniturej
and the comforts of home.
Taking cents pound as the average
cost of production; the New York Jour
nal of Commerce estimates that the
Southern farmers realized about 81 bale
profit on last years crop, and adds !:
'.Whatever variations future develop
ments may make in the items used In
this computation, 1t Is nearly certain that
the crop of the current year will bring IN
no less money than the huge crop OF last
year, and will probably bring In more
that 1t will cost more than SAC, 600, 600 less
than the last crop, and that lnste ad OF
barely covering the cost OF production
there will be comfortable profit for the
planters. The lesson to the South Is 70
raise no more cotton than there Is good
market for, and, incidentally, to raise lta
own corn and pork instead Of buying
them out of the proceeds of the cotton
sales, system which tempts each planter
to raise more cotton in order 10 meet bis
bill at the factor's."
Again the advice of the newspapers has
been proven wise, and though the lar.
mers have for many years rldlculeo
"those fellows who farm In the neWspa.
pers," they are forced to admit that had
they taken ten years ago the advice OF
the newspapers and raised st home all
the provision crops that were needed in
stead of buying from the West, the
Southern farmer would have been more
Independent 10 day. Circumstances Of
dire necessity forced our farmers to &c
what the newspapers have long been
urging them to do, and the result proves
the wisdom of the editorial advice.
Now, let the newspapers begin at once
TO advise the Southern farmer agains!
being carried away by the improved
price of cotton, and induced to spoil 1t all
BY returning next year to the all cotton
crop. A ten million bale crop this year
would have continued FIVE cents cotton
and a ten million crop next year will
return to it. Let discretion control the
action of cotton planters. It Is to short
crop they are due for better prices this
year; let them not kill the goose that
laid the golden egg by making more
cotton next year than the world needs

The frogs breathing apparatus is
certainly most 'curiously and wonder
fully made" One of the peculiarities
about it Is that he Is unable to breathe as
long as the mouth is held open. This is
because of the fact that a frog breathes
through his nostrils, and the mechanism
of these is so constructed that the opening
of the mouth closes them. A frog will
smother in few moments if the mouth
is held open.
Most men wonder why all except
themselves get angry about trifes.
"No, sir" said the gentleman

for it, sir, it shows at once that he is

The South and the Sabbath.

The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph
says:
be said, in no part of this country to-day
Is the old-fashfoned American Sunday-a
day of secession from secular labor, re-
spectful Huiet and worship for all Hho
are 30 inclined-so GENERALLY observed as
In the 5outh. This, fact, Is noted With ex-
treine qualification by Northern visitors,
already uhhappily familiar with current
practices throughout this section, and the
west particularly. There Is to be no t1n-
seemly and costly contest over opening
the Atlanta Exposition on the first day OF
the week. There was feeble effort In
this direction, but it has been speedily
disposed of. and in characteristic way,
by the directory, which unanimously
voted to postpone all consideration Of the
subject. This course is taken In Difference
to local public sentiment and in accord
pies. Atlanta is very busy city six
days IN the week. 1t Is forging ahead In
every element of material prosperity /;
but on Saturday night 1t lays aside the
tools of labor and refrains from unneces-
sary trespass upon the rights OF those who
toll. In this respect tie new South sets a
healtbful and inspiring example to the
reckless cities of the West, which have
almost abolished the American Sunday."
This Is the sober truth. 1t has come to
pass that if one would find thoroughly
representative American community
where our language is spoken by all,
where our customs are faithfully perpet-
uated, and where wholesome and pro-
nounced national sentiment lies at the

90 South. There he will encounter q
people who look, speak, think and feel
like the men who wrested this country
first from the untutored savages and
afterward from the tyranny OF princes.
There stands the stronghold of conser-
vatism, the happy medium between
tyranny and anarchy, the stout, uhyield-
ing spirit of enlightened republicanism'
There was no noise or wrangliDg over
Sabbath observance at the Atlanta Expo
sition because the men of the South do
not seriously disagree upon such issues.
Public sentiment il that part of the
country respects, honors, and upholds
the "day of rest" There is no ostentation
of piety, no canting protestation Of supe-
rior holiness. The people simply follow
in the footsteps of their fathers and recog-
nize the Sabbath as thing of course.
They are hustling, earnest, brave-heart-
ed folks in Atlanta. They believe in
progress and prosperity. But they give
one day to decent soberness-c concede to
each one at least the opportunity Of wor-
ship-and stand unanimously for the day
religion and morality have set apart.
Along with energy, liberty, intelligence,
courage and patriotism, they put tho
American Sabbath on their programme,
and there it stands Washington Post.
