Do Not Judge By Clothing.

Boys, do not Judge man by his
clothing. A little incident occurred
on one of the lines of street cars a few
days since which is worthy of notice.
A poorly clad woman entered the car
carrying an infant in her arms. As
she sat opposite observed she seemed
troubled about something. When
the conductor passed through the car
for the fares she said, in a very low
voice, "Please, sir, l have no money;
let me ride this time and some other
time will pay you" 81 can hear
that story every day." said the con-
ductor, in loud, rough voice. "You
can pay or get off," "Two fares,
please" said pleasant voice, as a
toil-worn and sun-browned hand
passed the conductor ten cents.
"Heaven bless you, sir" said the wo-
man, and long and silently she wept;
the language of the heart, so eloquent
to express our hidden thoughts. This
man in worn and soiled garments was
one of Gods noblemen. He pos
sessed heart to feel for the woes Of
others, and although the act was but
trifle, it proves that we can not with
safety, judge a man by his clothing
"For many a true heart beats be-
meath ragged jacket"

Material for a Grand r1an.

A story Of real life co,es from At
lantlc City, N. ]. A Mrs. Robert
son was arrested for being drunk and
the city Recorder fined her three dol
lars, in default of which she would
have to go to Jail. Her little boy and
girl were in the court room and when
the sentence was pronounced the lit
tie boy turned to his sister and said.
"Come, sister, we must raise that
money or nam will 60 to Jail"
"Wait, Mr.. Judge, and we'll get it,"
They visited the stores, told their
story and came back to the court with
two dollars in small change The lit
tie fellow laid the money down, told
the Recorder how he got it, said it
was all they could raise, and added:
81 am not as big as man and can't do
as much work, but if you'll let me 20
to Jail, I'll stay longer and make it
up The Recorder, touched by the
chlld's devotion, RENTED the fine and
costs, and the mother embraced her
boy and promised to lead a better life.
There was little hero and the mate
rial for grand man.

SMALL AND LARGE INDUSTRIES.

Some twelve years ago Connecticut
editor was in Wilmington. He made
an off hand talk that was instructive,
in the Mayors office. He told his
hearers that his own little State was
rich and had been made so not by the
great mills, but by the indefinite null
tiplying of the numerous smaller in
dustries. He said visit to that State
would show how Connecticut had
vast number of manufactures and that
almost everything used was made. He
told of how the oyster interest had
been developed in Long Island Sound.
He said originally the oyster was not
found there. The oyster boats Cpl
rates perhaps went down to Chesa-
peake Bay and loaded them with oys-
tiers, and taking them to Long Island
Sound planted them. This industry
was diligently prosecuted from year to
year. He said that as he spoke it was
worth to Connecticut some $780,
900 or 100000 per anuum. Here
is lesson of thrift and enterprise.
The Messenger has long been per-
suaded that North Carolina needed
very much multiplying ofthe smaller
industries, which are very many. Will
mington to-day ought to have at least
ten cotton mills alone. 1t ought TO
have fifty cotton manufacturing estab-
lishments. Look at Charlotte. Be-
hold what that inland town, with not
one-half the natural advantages Of our
city, has accomplished. 1t has some
nine cotton mills and scores of other
industrial enterprises. What has done
men of enterprise. Other towns i'll
our State have gone rapidly ahead un-
der the same spirit. In South Caro-
lima and elsewhere there are striking
object lessons to be found-towns
that have sprung up almost in a night,
and simply by manufactures. What
makes Augusta, Ga, the go-ahead city
it is? Its great manufacturing indus
tries. What pushes Atlanta to the
front SO rapidly? To very large ex-
tent it is her smaller industries as we'll
as large manufactures.
Wilmington is on many railroad
lines. 1t has waterway communica-
ton into the interior and is near the
ocean. Why shall it rot 60 bounding
and booming ahead?
Every plough every vehicle, every
bit of furniture, every harness and
saddle, every farming instrument
should be made in North Carolina. Let
all unite in the good work. Pull to-
ge,her and not against each other

Is it not true that in this fast age
there is growing desire on the part
of the people to do everything with a
hop, skip and jump, and instead OF
doing what they undertake, they only
do at it. A thing worth doing is
worth doing we'll, and to do a thing
we'll, we must have time. Did you
ever know man who was always in a
hurry that wasn't always behind hand?
A hurrying, clustering, tretting, fun
ing, splut,erin5 fellow seldom accom-
plishes what he undertakes. There is
with him, always, plenty Of steam, con-
