Farmers Dies in Randolph.
| Mr.. L. |. Arnold, one Of Terrell's we'll
! known and substantial farmers, has the
| sympathy Of a large number of friends
in the death Of his aged mother, which
occurred in Randolph county. OF Mrs.
4rnoId's death the NochaWay CORES
spOndent Of the CuthberU Liberal En-
terprise says:
''Friday morning at one O'Clock the
angel Of death came and took away the
spirit of our aged friend, Mrs. Patsy
Arnold who had been an invalid for
about year. Grandmother ArnolG
was about seventy eight years Of age.
She had lived a long christian life and
could welcome death with an out
stretched hand. She was always lively
and cheerful, even up to her death.
Her life was a bright example worthy
OF emulation and consisted of those
traits that were eleyatng and that 90
to make up pure and consistent life.
She vas the mother Of MessTS. w. H..
|. v, l., |. and f. G. Arnold and Mrs
Jim Lunsford and Mrs. r. p. LOWrey.
She died at her home near here, sur
rounded by all her loved ones. Quiet
ly she fell asleep in the hope Of a glO-
rious resurrection. Many hearts are
drawn to the words Of the poet who
sweetly wrote, when passing under the
rod himself:
"'Green be the turf above thee,
Friends Of better days;
None knew thee but to love thee.
None name thee but to praise
"Her remains were buried in Brooks
VILE cemetery Friday asternOon, Rev.
w. w. Mabry conducting the funeral
services"

Mr.. T, c. Sutton returned to his home

Mr.. Sutton is successful farmer and
merchant, and has the appearance Of a
plain, practical business man. He il

that he is much stronger than he was be-

Don't forget that although 1t is not
easy to win a mans love, 1t Is far more
difficult to keep 1t. and requires some
slight knowledge of men and their
ways.
Don't, " n he comes home tired and
hungry, spring on him a multitude of
little household worries, which, after
his graver business cares, will appear
to him as trivial In the extreme.
Don't he dull and solemn as the grave,
but be cheerful and enliven him occa-
sionally; no man is such a bear as to
cavll at bit of fun, and the chances
are he will thoroughly appreciate it.
Don't be constantly asking for money
to pay bills; have regular allowance,
and keep within 1t, either settling ac-
counts weekly or monthly.
Don't, above all, aggravate him or
argue with him. Very few women real

Women Conscious of Dress.

An acute observer points out thar
men are less conscious of dress than
women. OF course a man In poor
clothes appears Ill at case in trying 10
make his wit or other natural gifts out
shine his raiment; but that Is not the
point. At an afternoon reception OF
better stIll. at a picture exhibition, the
eagerness with which most young
women try to show the men how they
are dressed Is interesting to contem-
plate. The men stand dlscreetly near
the center of the room or walk slowly
in an outer line, while the women gain
or close to the pictures. Occasionally
n good-loolSing. well-groomed young
man win find the same woman be-
tween him and the picture he is looking
at eight or ten times in going the rouhd
of the room He should make no mis-
take and not lose his head in thinking
that she is personally Interested III
him. She simply has on new gown
and courts his silent admiration but
nothing more.

The year 1897 went on record rs one
OF the most disastrous In the recent
annals of British industry. This fact
Is due chiefly to the lockout Of the en-
glnecrs and the accompanying disturb
ances OF other branches of Industry.
There were not as many strikes and
lockouts as In the preceding year, but
the number of men concerned was far
greater and the net result upon trade
about $50 disputes, affecting more than
100000 workmen. AS nearly as can
now be reckoned, some 100000 days
labor was lost. That means over $4,000
years OF Individual idlencss, or years
idleness OF more than $4,000 men. AS
the majority of these men are skilled
mechanics, receiving from 3 TO o shil-
llngs day when at work, the total loss
to them I'm wages was probably little
short of S12,0OO,O0O. To this we must
add ut least S3.00O.000 more, paid out
by the Amalgamatcd Society OF Engi-
necrs and other trades unions for sup
port OF men ON strike or locked out. A
total loss TO workingmen of $l5,000,000
Is therefore TO be set down as one result
OF the years disputes. That would be
bad enough II Il were all. But Il Is not.
The engineering troubles caused con
siderable cutting down Of railway
freight traffic. The shipbulldlng indus
try was almost paralyzed. Shopkeep-
ers and tradesmen OF all kinds In the
affected districts found their businesses
greatly injured. And as for foreign
trade, the official reports tell the story
OF It's disaster. In the one month Of
November, according 20 Board OF Trade
reports, shipments OF machinery show
cd falling on Of more than $1,000
from the same month In the preceding
year. At the same time there was a
great expansion OF trade on the part OF
| Great Brltaln's chief rival. Germany,

chinery amounting In the first nine
months OF the year to S2.375.OOO. The

men have found. that business once lost
TO Germany IA never regained. The
most competent authorities estimate
the direct loss to British industry and
trade. to workingmen and employer
together. of the labor troubles OF 1897
at not less than S75.oO0,0oo. That does
not include the future losses resultln.
from the permanent diversion of trad,
to Germany. As an Offset workingmei

RIDDLE OF THINGS THAT ARE.

We walk In world where no man reads
The riddle Of things that are,
From tiny fern In the valleys heart
To the light Of the largest star,
Yet we know that the pressure Of life Is
hard
And the silence OF death Is deep,
AS we fall and rise on the tangled way
That leads to the gate Of sleep.
We know that the problems Of sin and
pain,
And the passions that lead TO crime.
Are the mysteries locked from age to age
In the awful vault of time;
! ct we lit our weary feet and strive
Through the mire and mist to grope
And find ledge on the mount Of faith
In the morning land Of hope.

Like stenographers, mediocre type
writers number themselves in legions.
Few of all the hosts who graduate In
this art from the business colleges ever
become experts. There are one or two,
however, who have attained a national
reputation for speed on the typewriter.
Among this number Is Miss Alice NJ.
Goldthwalte, of Boston, Mass. She is
reputed to be the fastest operator In the
Hub city. Miss Golthwaite can write
