Boys.

The Parent, in Ainslecs Magazine.
Having rather personal interest in
the subject, Il am half owner of boy
and was one myself once) l have been
canvassing the town for opinions con-
corning them, and advice as to the
proper treatment of them during the
more immature years of their life. l
grieve to say that my vn opinion, that
they are more of nuisance than less,
is confirmed in almost every quarter.
Miss Diana Autumn, a maiden lady
who lives up at the corner, says they
are wholly and entirely bad alb initio
and grow worse in geOmetrical ratio as
they grow older, attaining an inlinity
of badness when they reach manhood,
after which the human mind cannot
appreciate the increments of evil that
are added to their make up. There is
no hope for them.
A mother of seven, whom | visited.
sighed YEARLY, and wished that all boys
could be girls until they were 21, and
that all girls could be boys after they
were 81. 1 left, promising to see that
her wishes were attended to.
A lawyer of prominence told me that
boys should be put in barrel at the
age Of six years and fed through the
bung hole until they were 16. I told
him 1 thought that pretty good advice,
and he charged up $40 against me for
the same.
Percival AppIejack, a fine old bach
elor of means, conceded with the opin.
ion of the lawyer, differing only in one
particular. He said it was all right to
keep the boy in a barrel and feed him
through the bung hole until he was Is;
but added that whom the boys arrived
at the age of 16 you should drive in
the buug.
My pretty friend, Puss, young lady
of pronounced ideas. declared that none
of thse people were right. She said it
was all right to put tho boy in the bar
rel and feed him through the bung
hole but that after certain age (say
after his mustache had achieved a GER
tain prominence and was discernable
to the unclad eye) the boy should be
liberated.
like to be fair to all parties con-
cerned, so l went last to the boys them
selves and laid the matter before them.
They did not seem to care very much
what any of the foregoing PARTIES had
said, saving, only, pretty Puss.
/ really believe the boys are right.

A Missouri exchange says the follow

and shows how man stands in their e.
timation: Man is two legged animal
that chaws tobacco and walks on the
forke1 end. Most men are born. We
never heard of but one that wasn't. He
was made of mud for IA sample. Mans
life is made of disappointments, growls
and Iifes. He goes forth like lion
in the morning and leaves the wood
for his wife to chop, and in the evening
he sneaks home with his pants ripped
and his heels gone, and raises Cain
about hard times. He has the Ia grippe
on roal working days, and will walk 20
miles to circus. He will chase rab-
bit for miles through the snow and Dor

will be located and placed in suitable
position ere the expiration of 1898. The
Artillery Board is constantly making
practical surveys, so far as these relate
to the army. and the establishment of
adequate military protection of our sea
board is receiving strong endorsement.
Meanwhile there is a means of defense
from greater physical calamity, and
that is the use of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which by restoring the tone of
the nerves and stomach invigorates
the entire system. 1t also prevents
malarial, kidney and rheumatic all

stipation. Those who have been cured
by it speak in no uncertain terms as to
its effectiveness.

reading without debate or opposition.
All bills relating to the dispensary
were referred to special committee on
that subject, except one by MIR. j. p.
Thomas to provide for the sale of native
wines by county dispensers which was
promptly killed.
The bill to establish bureau of labor
for the purpose of gathering the labor
statistics aud inspecting the weights
and measures of South Carolina was
withdrawn. 1t was a measure cham
pioned by Mr.. Ilderton during the last
session and caused great deal of
debate.

wages of operatives was killed without
debate.
The graduate license bill from last
session was knocked in the head with
out the least commotion on motion of
Mr. Yeldell. Last year it came near
passing the house, but members after
mature deliberation evidently felt that
the bill was one which good policy con-
demned.
A bill regulating the work of immi-
grant agents in the State was passed to
third reading. This bill is of great
interest to farmers, and is as follows:

Hudson ON the Nimble Pistol.

Ex-JudgeJ. 81. Hudson is outin an
able article on the cause and cure Of
homicides. He says the nimble pistol
and the relaxation Of the laws aEd rules
relating to criminal prosecution is at
the root of all the trouble and that all
efforts to annul ths evil should be di-
rected to prevent the use of pistols and
to re-estsblish the efficiency of the
courts in dealing with the crime. He
further says pistols should be prohib-
tied as they are not within the consti-
tutional provision regarding ''the right
to bear arms for the common defence, T"
and. that judges should bei allowed to
instruct and aid the juries; THAT crimi-
nails should not be allowed Ito testify in
their own behalf, and that bail should
be within the discretion Of the judge.
