II in freshly whitewashed closet It
Is necessary to hang dark clothing, tack
against the wall On old piece Of sheeting
or calico as protection for the clothes
against the lime, which would other.
wise rub on them. The cleat upon which
the hooks are screwed should be about
AZ or 3 feet from the floor, ard your
closet shelf about inches above the
cleat. This is convenient distance and
prevents reaching and straining when
things are to be put on or taken of the
shelf The capacity Of q closet is In
creased by screwing to the underside OF
the shelf row Of double hooks shaped
like the letter T. Another excellent plan
is to run rod across the closet length
wise and then fasten to this number
Of movable hooks Of galvanized wire.
These hooks are excellent, as the cloth
ing can be hung loosely on them, and
they can be pushed along the rod to make
room in the same way that clothing
stores arrange dresses and coats The
yokes which many clothing houses send
along with coats and wraps are the best
things for keeping cloaks and wraps in
shape. Any housekeeper can make her
self supply Of these by taking pieces
of barrel hoops about 10 or IL inches
long and winding about them pieces OF
old cambria or muslin.
Wooden will not serve, as it invites
the attention Of moths. Suspend the
Jokes by loop made at the center with
stout cord, wire or cloth.
Closet floors need special attention.
Wide cracks In them collect dust and
lint or afford lodgmcnt to moths and
other troublesome inseots These should
be carefully filled with putty or plaster
Of paris A good substitute for these ID
newspaper shredded finely and made
into paste with gum tragacanth or q
little hot water and glue.
Camphor, tar balls, tarred paper and
cedar chests have proved inadequate az
moth exterminators. 1t seems to be de-
cided that the only safe thing is to thor
oughly beat all dust out Of the clothes,
give them a thorough summing, wrap
them first in a piece Of old muslin,
then tightly inclose the bundle in news
paper. Printers ink is very distasteful
to insect forces
A wise plan is to label these parcels,
as the uniformity Of appearance may
lead to mistakes. Tack a sect Of paper
on the inside Of closet doors and on the
lids of boxes and trunks. As each gar
ment is laid away write its name on the
paper. By this plan the closet, the shell
and the package which holds desired
garment can be recognized at a glance

An aged negro shuffied into the
office of Capt. Frank Cunningham
at the City Hall the other day and
made the popular city collectors
hair curl by announcing:
Boss, done come for to pay de
license on my pole cats"
"What!h shouted Capt. Frank, as
a horrible suspicion that the old
darby had brought them with him
possessed him.
MY pole cats, boss. want to gin
you my pole cats" said the old man,
thrusting a black paw into the peck
ct of his breeches.
why do want TO give me your
pole cats?n asked the collector, re-
covering his equanimity as an idea
dawned suddenly upon him.

Her maiden name was Perry. In

Negro Dialect Stories,

1t Is well-knOwn fact that with
negro no fruit can take the place of
the "watermilliOn," and when you
come to the substantials no substi-
tute has ever been found for the
'possum. From time immemorial
writers ard story tellers have been
treating the public to accounts of
how the negro dOtes on this "var-
mint" both as thing of sport and
food.
When l was a boy it would take
me a whole winter to catch 'possum
enough to pay my debts to the old
negro men and women, to whom I
had promised them at the beginning
of the hunting season.
A short time ago two negro wo-
men, who had come down on a
"scursionn from the country to en-
joy the sights in Richmond, sat lazi-
ly around the Southern depot wait
ing for their train to take them back
to "Melia Cote'ouse." The train
was late in leaving on account of
some delay on the part of an incom-
ing train. The "pervisions" which
they had brought to last them for
two days had been eaten the first
day, and they were getting hungry.
Getting up close to hear what they
had to talk about, and being particu-
ly anxious to know what they
thought of Richmond, l overheard
the following:
"Sallie-"Ain't you hongry?"
Maria-''Ya-as; dat | is; rs dat
hOngry l mos daid An eff de Lawd
will jes forgive for dis time, you ohm
see me on ma mother 'scursion whilst

"Sallie-Well, Ria; spos'n you had
plenty o. money-money 'nough to
buy anything in dis worl' you wanted
what would be de fus' thing you'd
buy?n
Maria-"Lem'me see! De ve'y

THOUGHTS.

AS regards direct action upon nat
ural phenomena, mans will is con-
fessedly pOwerless, but it is the trig-
ger which, by its own free action,
liberates the divine pOwer.-Tyn-
dali.
The foolish and the dead alone
never change their opinions james
Russell Lowell.
And share the inward fragrance of
each others heart.-Keats.
Not being untutored in suffering, |
learn to pity those in affliction.-
Virgil.
If You open piano and sing into
it certain string will respond.
Change the pitch of your voice; the
first string ceases to vibrate, but
another replies. Change again the
pitch; the first two strings are silent
while another resounds. Now in al
tering the pitch you simply change
the form of the motion communi-
Gated by your vocal chords to the
air, one string resouding to one form
and another to another. And
thus is sentient man acted on by
Nature, the optic, the auditory and
other nerves of the human body be-
ing so many strings differently tuned
and responsible to different forms of
the universal power.-Tyndall.
Who gives a trifle meanly, is
meaner than the trifle.-Lavater.
Sorrow is scourge, but there is
healing in its stripes"
Nothing is so completely beyond
the power of death as noble love.
Parting can shqtter only its outward
shell. Under that strange touch,
love in its Utmost recesses kindles
and CLOVIS with a divine fire.-Geo.
5. Merriam.
Let every youth aim, first of all
aud most of all, at self-mastery.
Without it he must be base and
miserable. With it he cannot but be
happy.-Dean Farrar.
Intellectual science has been OBJ
served to beget invariably doubt
of the existence of matter. Turgot
said: HE that has never doubted
the existence of matter may be as
sured he has no aptitude for meta
physical inquiries. 1t fastens the
attention upon immortal necessary
uncreated natures-that is, upon
ideas-and in their presence we feel
that the outward circumstance is a
dream and a shade. Emerson.
Idealism is hypothesis to account
for nature by other principles than
those of carpentry and chemistry.
Yet, if it only deny the existence of
matter, it does not satisfy the de-
mands of the spirit. 1t leaves God
out of me. 1t leaves me in the splen-
did labyrinth of my perceptions, to
wander without end.-Emerson.
Alas for mortality,
Sad Is its song;
Hopes idealty,
Lost i'm fatality,
Crushed by reality,
Sorrow and wrong.
The world gives no token
OF sympathy dOled,
Till the lips that have spoken
Are rigid and cold,
And the heart, sorrow broken,
Is laid in the mould.
George Anderson.
The angel Hope aye makes
Him an angle whom she leads.

ENoN CREEK, Aug. l6:-Miss Ada
Dudley, daughter of Mrs. Sue Dudley,
of this vicinity, and Mr.. $. II. Spratt,
of Duplex, two popular young people,
evaded parental objection on last Fri
day night after the ice cream supper at
Greenwood, and were quietly married
in the presence of few intimate friends,
by Esquire McCord. No one-not even
the members of the brides family-sus-
pected anything of the kind that night,
Mr.. Spratt did not attend the ice cream
supper-to keep down suspicion. Miss
Ada was there, however. She, in COM
pany with her mother and little broth
err, left the supper about y o'clock, and
went home. Miss Ada complained of
being very tired when she arrived
home, and went to her room to retire,
so her mother thought. But she did
not retire, as she knew her lover was
waiting close by for her. They were
married about one o'clock at night, and
left Immediately for their home in the
first district of Williamson county. The
parties have been engaged for about
two years, but Mrs. Dudley had per-
