The Natchez Bulletin in an elo-
quent appeal, half pathetic half
humorous, against taxing the dog,
closes as follows;
We confess to a liking for the
dog that is lifelong. He has char
acteristics that are attractive. lie
Is not deceitful; You'll not fnd him
friend today and something else
on the morrow. He presents nc
shade of character that Is not ma
tural; he has no hypocritical phas-
es. Thus it can be seen that he
has a virtue that man does not
possess.
The charge has been made
that the dog is sheep killer.
ONLY occasionally. Grant that he
makes PREDATORY excursions after
forbidden mutton; should he be
taxed to determination? 4 willy
Ethiopian will do more damage in
two or three nocturnal excursions
10 cIItkeH IOOotS IudH d cAlCCP
killing dog will do in a lifetime.
Would it be wise to wage war
on the brother in black-taX him,
and exterminate him if he didn't
pay? By no means; therefore, let
the dog alone. He behaves him
self better than lots of people do.
Tax the loafers, the drunkards;
levy heavy assessment on the
masculine barnacles { not q few }
who are content to let tired wives
or mothers partially or wholly
support them. Tax these or other
like things; let the poor dog
alone"

Patronize Home Industry,

In a recent issue of the Centre
vile ,Jeffersonian this is some of
the logic Bro. Quinn dispenses
for the reflection of home mer-
chants. We reproduce it and call
the attention of our business
houses to it and respectfully ask
! careful digest of same. 1t is
worthy of solicitous considera-
ton:
"Some of our people, like those
in other towns, have a habit OF
sending off to catalogue houses
for goods which in great many
instances can be bought at home
as cheap, or nearl V so, as from
the foreign house. This is wrong.
These houses that send out their
catalogues are not interested in
the least in our community; they
pay no taxes here, do not help to
keep up our churches or schools,
but our home merchants do, and
they should have the patronage
of our people--at least, the pref
erence. We venture the aSser-
tion that there is enough money
sent away from here each year to
build a town hall or sink an arteS-
ian well. Now, we do not believe
our people actually prefer sending
their money away rather than
spending it here, but the fact IS
that they do it. Then the ques-
ton allses, why do they do so?
We can best answer that by giving
conversation that recently took
place. A gentleman wal ked
down the street with a lately pur-
chased article in his hand. He
met a merchant. who inquired of
HIM where he bought the article.
The response was: In Chicago.
The merchant looked rather DIS
pleased. and said: L don't see
what you want to send money
away for. | have that for sale.
The gentleman replied: We'll, |
didn't know it; of course, would
have given you the preference had
known you carried this in stock.
Now, how did this gentleman
find out that the foreign house
carried the article i'll stock? The
answer is very plain: Because the
foreign house advertised the fact,
while the home house did not,
and people will buy goods that
are advertised, some people to
the contrary view notwithstand-
ing. If our home merchants
would as industriousIy advertise
their goods as these catalogue
houses do, you would hear very
little complaint about money be-
ing sent away from home.

"a cotton MILL" says the
Greenville Democrat, with 100
hands, will spin 1000 bales of cot
ton annually, worth at present
prices $25, 200 in its raw state, and
say $50, 900 when it is spun. This
force consists of, say, fifteen men,
twenty five women and sixty
children In the fields this force
will not produce more than 300
bales of cotton, worth $500,
while in the mill the value of their
labor will amount to $4,000. This
is why New England is rich and
the South is poor. =

known to us, and to the community at
large, and has measured fully in it's ability
to do, to love, to cherish all the absolute
requirements of the most exaeting demand.
This maternal love exalted and exhausted
itself in the first conception of duty and
obligation and in it's ever unselfsh action,
broadened from earliest childhood into Wig
orouS manhood a devotion that was re-
ciprocated in every line of human thought
and action-a worthy tribute to her, who
by her persevering, self-denial and stimu-
latng example made possible the success
full practical lives of these into whom she
had wrought her own noble and unselfsh
ambition.
Along the current of human history there
come some of those of finer fibre and pur-
pose, who realize not only the possibilities
of life, but also it's duties and beauties,
whose desires look out beyond themselves
to making others useful and happy, and
the world better for their living. Such an
one was she whose death we sorrowfully
record-but rest has come, the warm heart
beats no more with its love and sympa-
thy, the tired, cold hands lie peacefully up
on the breast, the life of earnest piety and
devotion has found its rest, and out of
faith has grown fruition.
He sees when their footsteps falter,
When their hearts grow weak and faint;
He marks when their strength is failing,
And listens to cash complaint;
He bids them rest for season, for
The pathway has grown too steep;
And folded in fair green pastures,
He giveth his loved ones sleep.
Like weary and worn out children, that
sigh
For the daylights close,
He knows that they oft are longing for
Home and it's sweet repose;
So he calls them in from their labor
Ere the shadows round them creep
And silently watching DER them
He giveth his loved ones sleep.

Will hush to rest
Inc babe that she softly pillows SO
Tenderly on her breast
Forgotten are now the trials and
Sorrows that made them weep
FOR with many a soothing promise
Tie giveth his loved ones sleep.
He giveth 1t to friends the dearest can
Never this boon bestoW;
But He touches the dropping eyelids, and
Placid the features grow
Their foes may gather about them.
And storms may round them sweep;
But, guarding them safe from danger,
He giveth His loved ones sleep.
All dread of the distant future,
All fears that Cypress today,
Like mists that oppose the sunlight
Have noiselessly passed away
No call nor clamor can rouse them
From slumbers so pure and deep,
For only His voice can reach them
Who giveth His loved ones sleep.
Weep not that their tolls are over;
Weep not that their race is run;
God grant we may rest as calmly
When our work, like theirs, is donei
Tell them would yield with gladness
Our treasured to Him to keep.
He giveth His loved ones sleep.
