from our school rooms higher and
better type of Negro manhood and
womanhood than ever before. TO do
this fellow teachers we must begin to
follow books and tradition less and
study nature and childhood more. We
must learn once for all, that the highest
and noblest purpose of the true teacher
is not to train and develop the intel
lect, not to send out men and women
whose brain only have been stored with
knowledge at the expense of character,
manhood and principle. Every
true teacher of the Negro race and
of every other race for that matter
must be imbued with the great fact
that he or she is a soul developer and a
character builder. The teacher lays not
only the foundation, but determines also
the character of the superstructure that
rises upon that foundation.
1t is important therefore that we
should arouse and catch with tirmer
grasp the stupendous work we have in
hand and begin as never before to lit
up standard for all the people.
BY a mysterious Providence our
destiny has been fixed in this vast
southland, the garden spot of the world
side by side with the white man, our
veal or our woe is forever bound up,
our ultimate fate must be that of our
common country.
We are here to stay, from these ap-
pointed paths we cannot turn, how
Shall we walk in them and reach that
goal of high honor and respectability
which should characterize a people
whose God is the Lord?
This is the question which we the
teachers of western South Carolina
must answer by our devotion and
fidelity to the sacred trusts that have
been left US.
"Then cheer boys cheer, no more OF
idle sorrow, courage, true hearts shall
bear US on our way. Hope points be-
fore and shows the light tomorrow, let
US forget the darkness Of today"

in the United States, super cent OF the
crime is committed by Negroes, while
we constitute only about II per cent OF
the population.
This proposition holds good not only
in the South, but also in Northern
States and cities. No race that is so
largely ignorant and so recently out OF
slavery could perhaps show a better
record, but we must first face these
plain facts"
1t becomes our duty as teachers to
seek the remedy for this great evil es
pecially as it is having such deadly
effect upoh our race throughout the
south.
What now is the remedy? 1t is
very clear that our system of education
and training is defective and must be
changed, if we would bring about the
desired reform.
If we expect to raise up citizenship
from this Negro race, that is worthy OF
q name and a place among mer
and nations, we must begin as never
before to hold up in holy horror the
record that we are now making and
raise up people that shall be an hon or
to its race as we'll as to our God. We
must remember that the problem
which we have to solve is peculiarly
our own and it must be met and
solved by us with the means and provi

Above all we need to be honest with
ourselves and look at facts as they are

becomes our duty to lead and train the
people. In our zeal to get education
and become learned in books, let us
not continue to do as we have done II
the past, pay too little attention to the
education of the soul and the infusion
of character without which all educa
ton is a failure sham, and mock

Marking Household Linen.

FROM the Hartford Times.
Household embroidery is a form of dec
orative work entirely distinct from that
Known as art needlework' and is, as its
name signifies, a form of needlework used
to embelish in a practical manner house
hold articles. principally bed linen, table lin
en-, towels and ladies' and children's under
wear.
In Denmark and Germany the marking
OF linen in this way is as much a matter of
course as the hem on sheet or a table
cloth Is in this country. 1t is pity that as
mucn cannot be said for this country, as
attention to details of this sort goes far to
make up the dainty refinements of home
life.
The household" lettering is really all
that is required in order to mark ones $
linen simply and beautifully, and to do
these letters satisfactorily requires hardly
any practice. The principal stitches en-
ployed are outline of a very fine and even
quality-long and short stitch, buttonhole
stitch, French knots, satin stitch, feather
stitch and seed stitch.
Table linen looks best in pure white. For
towels, red, white, blue, or mixture of
any two is suitable. In ''household' letter
ing the effect depends entirely upon the
care with which the work Is done. Little
details should be attended to. No matter
how the stitches may be worked, If the let
ter Is stamped on the cloth in a careless,
siovenly way the effect is completely ruined,
and if well stamped and poorly worked the
effect is the same. Neatness and eXactness
should be the motto.

Pedestfianism Good Medicine.

Every woman should get a certain amount
of moderate exercise il the open air 1t
makes 80 difference what kind of exercise
is taken so long it exercises all the mus
cles and is not followed by sense of ia
tigue.
The question is not what exercise You
think you ought to have, but what you can
endure. If you find that you can only walk
one hour each day without becoming ia
tigued, then that is enough If you cannot
take that much exercise then walk half an
four but if half an hours exercise ex-
hausts you so that you do not quickly re-
cover after d short rest, then you are sick
and you need doctor.
The element of worry has undoubtedly
great deal to do with nervous depression.
Tnere Is great deal of worry which is to-
tally unnecessary. 1t Is possible to culti-
yate a cheerful and contented frame of
mind. If you have not sufficient self-con-
troll to do this then invoke some artificial
aid, such as religion. faith cure, don't
worry club, or in some way supplement or
cultivate that self-control which il was the
purpose of God that you should have. Take
