HomcVvnrd HO (!

Theron Brown, in Harper's Bazaar.
No blade nor flower nor leaf
You carry or remember;
The apple, nut and sheaf
Are all your sign, November;
And homeward no! where autumns go
Your barns and bins will sing
From Hallowmas till spring.
oh, homeward, homeward hol
Where fires of welcome burn,
Where JOY is feast and love is priest,
God speed the glad return!
The frost-foot on the lea
Has stalled the stubble-ploughing;
The wind has chased the bee
From off the clover rowen;
And Nature, queen, that ruled the green,
VIII house herself and spin,
And call her children in.
Sing homeward. homeward hol
Armed Winter. with his chills,
Encamped since April morning,
Lies snoring In the hills
Till the next noontides warning.
Wen heed not yet his windy threat
While seven sunshines stay
To laugh his flakes away.
So homeward, homeward hol
For hut with thatch Of grass
And hall with roof of cedar -,
Hold high Thanksgiving mass
And praise the Heavenly Feeder,
Where kindred binds at households
shrines,
And the last days of Fall
Sum up the Joy of ALL
Then homeward, homeward hol
Where fires of welcome burn.
Where Joy is feast and love is priest,
God speed the glad returnl

Lack of Education Ruined Him.

A certain philanthropic women, says the
New York Journal, has theory that the
remedy for crime is universal education.
A short time ago she visited Sing Sing in
company with several friends. Among the
convicts was a man whose face betokened
intelligence. She called the attention of
her friends to him, saying: There is
man whose countenance shows natural in
telligence, and yet 1 am satisfied that he
was deprived of education"
TN wager that he is well-educated,"
said one of her friends, and turning to the
warden asked:
What was that man convicted Off"
Forgery" was the response.
'iSee?" said the friends, turning to the
lady.
"Well, I don't care. do not believe he
is an educated man. 1 want to talk to
him."
Permission was obtained, and the follow
ing colloquy ensued:
Did you have the advantage of an ed
ucation?"
II know it, ma-am."
81 told you So" turning to her friend,
and then speaking to the convict again,
she said:
You feel within yourself, do you not,
that knowledge would have directed you
into paths of rectitude?"
81 don't know about that, but do know
that if I had been properly educated I
would not have spelled bearer with
dougle r, and that's what got me caught"

Let on Cheap.

Mr.. Augustus J. C. Hare, in his recent
book, tells a good story of Father Healy,
who was breakfasting with Gladstone
lately. Mr.. Gladstone said to him:
Father Healy, 1 went into a church in
Rome once, and was offered a plenary in
diligence for fifty francs; on what prin-
ciple does your church grant such
things?"
Father Healy replied: ''Well, Mr.
Gladstone, L don't want to go into the
ology with you but all 1 can say is that
if my church offered you a plenary in
diligence for fifty francs, she let you off
very cheap"

His wires Little strategy.

Thee were four or five men on the street
corner discussing the financial question,
says the Detroit Free Press. when a poor
iy dressed woman halted before them,
and. singing out a particular man, who
had been especially vociferous in the adj
vocacy of his pet views, she said:
Il am poor. but respectable and hard
working woman. Could you let me have
money to buy pair of shoes within"
do you really need 'em?" he inquired
in turn.
Very badly, sir; and 1 shall never for
get your kindness if you aid me-"
well, here it is" he said, as he put a
bill in her hand.
Thanks, kind sir, and may heaven bless
you"
When she had gone away one of the
group said:
She was mighty cheeky"
''Brassest thing I've seen in a year."
added a second.
do you know her, Bill?' inquired a
third of the man who had opened his
purse.
''Y-e-s more or less. We've been mar
ried about twenty-five years, and when 1
don't come down she takes this way of
making me. l rather like it. get credit
of being very charitable, and she gets

Different diseases have different noisons

any. '4AA

caused by the poisons which are created
by indigested food.
When you are sick, try to get rid of your
poison. '0uh
1t is often easier than you think. for all
nature is helping you. Only the poison is
obstinate, but the first step is to go to the
root of it.
The poisons of undgested food. which
cause lethargy, headache, dizziness, weak
ness, bad taste, stomach ache fever, f1atu-
lence, nauseau, constipation, loss of appe-
ute, Jaundice, anaemia, neuralgia, rheu-
matism, ETC., these poisons can be swept

Told in the Amen Corner.

Speaking of the colored vote" said the
Georgia colonel, sitting in the "amen cor
ner' at the Fifth Avenue hotel, according
to the New York Mail and Express, ere
minds me of the story of the darby who
voted for the candidate running against
his employer. When the fact came to the
ear of the latter he summoned the darby
employee and demanded in no mistakable
tones why he had dared to vote against
him.
Why, yo' see, sah' explained the con-
fused negro, 'dey gemme two dollars, an
/ fought d'war no harm in exhaustin' der
exchequer, so 1 took it.
But, you black rascal, put in the
white man, couldn't you have voted for
me all the same?
'Sho's yo' born, boss replied the dar-
ky, but yo doan understand. l did vote
for him once, but 1 voted for you nine
tines"

The Tourist Travel.

The railroads leading to Florida and
the hotels that accommodate winter visit
ors to South Georgia and Florida are ex-
pecting an unusually good season the COM
ing winter. The outlook for business i'm
provement is good, and no troubles APP
pear on the financial horizon. Therefore,
people will be inclined to travel and enjoy
themselves.
There is no good reason why there
should not be much more travel by the
leisure class to different parts of this
country and less to Europe. If it is fine
it in South Georgia, Florida, Louisiana
and California in the winter and in the
mountains in the summer. There is no
occasion for going to Europe to find it.
1t is as pleasant on the shores of the Gulf
of Mexico in winter as it is on the shores
of the Mediterranean, and the accommo-
dations for visitors are much better
Nobody knows how much gold Ameri-
cans carry to Europe each year, but it is
estimated to be as much as $50, 900, OOO
Most of this gold ought to be kept at
home. Instead of talking about establish
ing a financial system of our own without
the consent of any other nation, let us
talk about making our own country so
attractive that our rich people will not
carry all our surplus gold to Europe By
doing so we shall render our own people
a real service.

The Convict Problem.

In his annual report to the governor
Judge Turner, the principal keeper of the
penRentiary takes the position that it
would be unwse and dangerous to work
the convicts upon the public roads. He
expresses the opinion that the general as
sembly should appoint commission to
investigate the convict systems Of the
other states with the view of furnishing
the means for solving the convict prob
lem in this state.
We are not acquainted with the reasons
Judge Turner has for thinking that it
would be dangerous and unwise to work
the convicts on the public roads, but we
have no doubt that they appear to him
to be very good ones. If we are not mis-
convicts are worked on the public roads,
and that method Of solving the convict
problem gives great satisfaction.
Assuming, however, that the position
taken by Judge Turner is correct, why
would it not be a satisfactory solution of
the convict problem for the state to pur-
chase large farm in a part of the state
where the land is good and the health
conditions satisfactory, and set the con-
victs at work raising cotton and other
crops for which the soil and climate are
suitable?
This is the plan that has been adopted
in Mississippi, and thus far it has work
ed admirably. The farm has more than
paid the expenses of feeding and caring
for the convicts, and the health of the
convicts is much better than it was when
they We're confined in the states prison.
1t would not cost a great deal of money
to equip farm. In South Georgia good
land can be purchased for about SO an
acre. Large and costly buildings would
not be needed. 1t is doubtful if it would
cost more than $4,000 to purchase land
and erect such buildings as would answer
all partial purposes. Gradually the
buildings could be improved from the
proceeds of the farm.
The success. of the system depends, of
course, upon the management. A good
manager would make a success of it,
while a bad manager would make a fail
ure of it. 1t would not be an easy matter
to get a good manager, but good mana
gers are to be had by paying them what
their services to the state are worth.
There is no doubt of the desire of the
people to have the present lease system
abolished. They know that the convicts
are not dealt with as humanely as they
should be, and that it has the effect of
brutalizing the young convicts. 1t has
no reformatory feature, and convicts leave
the penitentiary at the end of their terms
much worse morally than when they en-
tered 1t. On a large, Wen managed farm,
attention could be given to the reforma-
ton of those of the convicts susceptible
to good influences and good examples
The young convicts could be kept apart
from the hardened criminals and the fe-
male convicts could have a chance to re-
gain a little self-respect.
The convict problem is the great one
with which this legislature has to deal.
The people are anxious to see what the
solution of it will be. They feel that the
solution has been put off too long al
ready, and they will be greatly disap-
pointed If there is further Unnecessary
delay in respect to it.

silver in Virginia.
from the New York Times Dem

Virginia is one of the states IN which
the free silver delusion was supposed to
be rampant at the beginning of the late
campaign and in which the regular demo-
cratic party held well together and con-
trolled the election machinery, not with
out strong suspicion Of fraudulent prac-
tees. But the official returns show that
McKinleys vote exceeded that of Harrison
in 1892 by more than 1900, while Bryan's

2,2l6 were given to Palmer and Buckner.
Clevelands plurality was 5O,Si. Bryan's

A day or two previous to the opening
of the season of grand opera in New York
the management of the opera house pub
lished notice requesting ladies in the
orchestra seats to wear no hats, or to re-
move them when seated. The request
was pretty generally compiled with.
There were a few women present, how
ever, who persisted In wearing big hats.
Their headgear made them so unpleas-
antly conspicuous that it is thought they
will not wear big hats at the opera here
after. The theater hat reform appears to
be moving on to glorious consumma-
ton.

Raising the Revenue.
From the Baltimore Herald DENY.

Secretary Carlisle. 1t is said, favors a
tax on coffee and tea and an additional tax
on beer The two first mentioned articles
Senator German also includes in his pro-
gramme, adding to them mating. cocoa
and spices. All these commodities are in
daily use. Tea, coffee and spices are ne
cessities. They do not compete with any,
thing we produce. and in the interest of
the people they should be cheapened rather
than made more expensive by the IMPOSE
tion Of a tax. AS between taxing necessi-
ties and luxuries there should be no ques-
ton. Congress ought, first. to exhaust the
list Of the latter before 1t undertakes 20
increase the cost of the former. 1t is
doubtless possible so to adjust the tariff
that the income will suffice for the needs
of government economically administered.

Principal Keeper Turner of the peniten-
tiary, in his annual report, shows that IA
convicts of 16 years of age and under were
sent to the penitentiary during the last
fiscal year. His investigations convince
him that the vast majority of convlcts be-
come criminals between the ages of 16 and
% years. II is between these ages, there
fore, that young men and young women
most need restraining influences. To place
juvenile prisoners in association with hard
ened criminals is to stife their better ma
lures and school them in crime. A REFORM
atory is wanted.
