The church and Labor.

The Chicago Record has pubisheo
recently arge number OF le''e's
from clergymeu aud officers OF Mool
unions on the subject of postal say

1.-THE agitation for nostal savinss

Abe Record has been able to get ex-

Surely this is a showing of sentiment
that must command attention. That

voice of labor on the one hand aud
sanctioned heartily by the clergy on
the other certainly is worthy the SER

IN MEMORIAM.
Mrs. N. Il. BlAntOn, Died sept. lAth
1891, Aged II Tears.

1891, Aged II TEARS,
In the death of this excellent lady
Greenyille has lost one Of lie Oldest
aud most honored residents.
She came to this county as the
bride of DIR. o. NJ. Blanton, the eldest
son of the late Mrs Theobald, long be-
fore the Blantonia Plantation was
dreamed of as site for city, and while
that portion ofitwhich was to be her lille
long residence was still virgin forest
During her long aud busy life she saw
generation after generation grow UP
around her, the children of each sue
ceeding one being taught to love aud
reverence her IN turn As the friend Of
their parents and grandparents. Her
interest aud activity In the business
and social life Of the city which grew
! NJ Under her eyes and partly on her
property never tagged. In all mat
ters affecting the business develop
ment aud public welfare Of the com.
munity she bore her part with gener-
osity aud good Judgment. In COLA
boratiou with the veneratod Mrs. j
Shall &erger sac founded the Parish
of st. James, and the large aud ~
tiuental Episcopal Church of Green
Vile owes Its beginning to the efforts
and fostering care OF these two ladies,
beth of whom gave to it the devotion
of their lives, aud were borne to their
graves from lie doors,
Mrs. Blanton was born in Greenes-
vile County, Virginia, and removed
in early life, with her father, DR.. Geo.
Smith, to Mississippi, where he owned
the Live Oak Plantation, near Vicks-
burg, which is still remembered by
the older residents of Vicksburg as a
typical home of culture aud elegant
hospitality until the beginning of the
war. There she was married to
DR.. q. NJ Rlanton, and came with
her husband to his plantation in this
county, where, for nearly fifty years
she exercised commanding influence
In its social life. Possessing the ad-
vantage Of an exceptionally Keen aud
brilliant intellect, which had been
carefully cultured IN the best schools
of the South, she was . woman whose
abilities gave her prominence in social
affairs, aud made her active and sue
Cessful In business life. Her strength
of character and the business OF her
nature and perceptions made her an
authority for the guidance of all about
her; and her loss Is lrreparable TO the
FAMILY circle which looked TO her as
Ito wise and devoted head. Her hus-
band DR.. o. N. Blanton, survives her,
With their daughter, Mrs. S. d. Fin
ay, her sister, Miss Fannie Smith, her
brother Mr.. Harry Smith, and large
circle of grandchildren, nieces and
1ephewG, all of whom she loved with
he teDderest devotion. The funeral,
which took place GU Wednesday from
he church she loved so well, was at
ended by large and representative
,oncourse of citizens ofGreenyille and
friends of the deceased lady.
Among those present were many old
amily servants and former slaves
whose devotion to their mistress has
lever wavered.
The interment took place in the
amily lot in the GreenVilIe cemetery,
nd the pall-bearers were Messrs. Wal
zee Arnold, Harry w. Ball, Geo. b.
Chas. II. Startling, Henry

brick. Hang the wet buds inside the
barrel on broom-stick laid across
the top and cover closely with piece
of old carpet. Slip one hand under
the cover and drop small handful OF
sulphur on the Goals and be careful
not to inhale the burning fumes, un-
less one wants a cold, and in about
an hour, if the Goals were hot enough,
the palmetto will be beautifully
bleached and the cover may DC
thrown back for the fumes to escape.
In some localities palmetto is of a
finer quality than in others. The
''blue' palmetto is the best kind, but
that known as ''saw'' palmetto will
do very well.
But everyone would not be skillful
at braiding palmetto, and might find
small dyeing establishment quite
profitable, and great convenience to
their neighborhood; for nearly every
family has several garments each sea-
son to be dyed and perhaps remod-
eled.
There is no outfit to buy, if one al
ready has wash pot, tubs and plenty
of water, except a few packages of
dye to prepare a few sample gar
ments, and Diamond dyes are very
satisfactory and cheap in price.
Make reasonable charge and work
will come as soon as the neighbors
find out who will do it nicely for
them.
Occasionally work would be sent
from surrounding neighborhoods and
villages, while the business would
keep growing if properly and care
fully attended to.
[ hope these suggestions will be
helpful to some one. M. M.

inches long. Finish the end where
you began with row of shells. Gro
Chef tight and the tiny shells will
give raised effect.
These ties are very economical, es-
pecially the black ones. They Will
wear long time and when worn at
the top of long end may be ravelled
out and a new piece one or two inches
long set in, after which they will
wear nearly as long again. They will

Moreover, the brain is not strong
enough in infancy to retain all first
impressions. Besides, SO many things
are required OF children that are con-
trary to nature, that it takes years
of training before they can be estab-
lished in such unnatural habits. They
are expected to ''sit still'' and be
quiet" When visitors are in the
house they must be ''seen and not
heard And all this in face of the
fact that children are above all things
restless or. active, and generally fond
of talking and asking questions-Wise
provisions of nature to insure growth
of body and intellect. They are al
most constantly being told not to do
things that they can see no harm i'll
doing. The word 'don't" is so fire.

folks may we'll get confused and

Parents are liable to forget that all

a useful, virtuous and noble manhood
and womanhood. They should not
expect to make their children perfect
men and women in behavior while
they are still SO young. The ulti-
mate aim should be kept in mind, and
all useless and provoking Interior
ences avoided. Much evil is done by
the almost perpetual irritating

the effects of such training can fail
to see that it is the best method for
making naturally good child bad,
and that it can never make a bad child
better. We must study their natures
and teach them the correct way.

A HELPFUL CORNER.

Some one has said, "Do not talk of
your own or your neighbors' suffer
ings at meals. Never talk of your
trouble unless to some one who can
help you with them, but above all, do
not eat and drink Them This is in
deed too true, and many a wholesome
meal is spoiled by just such talk.

Crocheted Four-in-.I Hand Necktie.

Use three spools Victoria knitting
or B. & A. crochet silk and No. 10
crochet needle.
Begin ON the bottom of the long
end, which is 16h inches long, then
work the narrow neckband Is inches,
or to suit the size of collar worn, and
last the short end six inches long.
1st row.-Chain 38 stitches, work
shell of five double crochets in the
fourth chain from needle, then catch
down in the next fourth stitch with
a single crochet x, chain three and
make a shell in the same stitch where
the single crochet was worked in; re-
peat from (star) until eight shells
are in row.
2nd row.-Chain three and turn; a
single crochet between shell and
three chain, then three chain and a
shell under the three chain of first
row, repeat from across the row.
Continue in this manner until you
have 1914 inches of eight shells in a
row; this makes the long end.
Narrowing.-Make first shell and
make two single crochets on two
shells, leaving out a shell; on the OPP
posite side do the same so that it
narrows to six shells; make six rows
of six shells, then narrow to four
shells and be sure you always make
your first and last shells so that you
do not spoil the edges.
Crochet three rows of four shells,
narrow one shell more, and work the
neck piece with three shells as long
as desired; Is inches is the average
length.
Widen.-Crochet first shell, make
the single crochet between shells, and
then work shell in there, work on
as before and increase on opposite
side in the same manner.
Crochet five rows of five shells, in
