The Boys.
!. D. Walker, i'll Christian IntelIigencer.

a. D. Walker, in Christian Inteigencer
Boys are berated, complained of,
mourned over and yet what would we
do without them? Why, bless you,
the world would be stagnating place
without the boys, who run errands for
us and give us needtul neighborhood
nevs fer better thar, the locrl news
paper does. The boy runs after fires,
wagons, street rows, professions, and
anything else that has noise and con-
fusion IN it.
The boy is noisy, confusing, mis-
chlevous, and yet the boy is useful.
He can tell you where the minister
the doctor, the grocer, and especially
the baker, can be found.
Are some OF the family worrying to
you, with their poor appetltes and
their dissatisfaction with the food
placed upon the table? Let the boy
sit down, and the bread and butter will
be splendid, and the other food too
good for anything. No poor appetite
with him. He knows nothing of such
matters as that.
Is your little daughter becoming
vain OF her Appearance aud her dress?
Not 50 the boy he dOns his new suit
with some evidences of pleasure, but
1t IS soon forgotten. He has his bat
and ball, bis marbles and his kite, and
bis comrades to take his mind from
such triies Is he fine looking lit
tie fellow with bis ruddy cheeks, his
sparkling eyes, bis hoyish brow and his
merry face, with the rings OF gold
brown hair all about it? If so, he Is
wholly oblivious to that fact, and has
very little personal vanity.
Daes he climb tall tree to get a
squirrel Or bird. and make great rent
in bis jacket sleeve or winkle hawk
in his trousers? We own it is pro-
yoking; but his compIacency over the
matter is because he counts trinng
things Of little moment when some
great end is in view.
The boy has pockets crammed with
strings, ginger nats, and taffy, and is
always ready TO diylde with a comrade.
His ability and propensity for
climbing are closely akin to that of a
goat. In fact, he climbs even better
than a goat, for he thinks nothing Of
ascending to the roof OF the house, and
we have seen him quietly reading
upon the peak OF the barn.
Don't complain of him, but be pa
tient with him, for he is most i'm
portant factor in country where the
boys eventually become the rulers.
Let him shout, laugh, sing, and be
merr, /; for all 10 soon the marks of
care will come to his face. and he, no
longer boy, will be bearing the bur-
dens OF life.

ence Nightingale, who had brought
order out of this chaos, passed with her
candle on her nightly round of the
hospitals, the heroes of Balaklava and
Of Inkerman would lift themselves on
their elbows, in spite of the pangs of
wounds Or fever, TO kiss the spot where
her shadow had rested. It Is an old
story, too, OF how the whole English
line burst into a wild cheer as the slen-
der, black robed figure of the Angle of
the Trenches walked cooily out among
the Russian bullets and shells before
Sc bastopol because she saw some one
that she could help and perhaps saye.
after 20 hours Of tlreless work each day,
laid the fragile b; nds in quietness for
awhile not only the Crimea and Eng
land, but the whole civilized world,
waited in awe until the word was sent
out that she would lie spared yet
while from that choir invisible TO
which it had SCENE d that she was i'm
peratiyeIy called.
When the war was over and alter
two years the time came for her to
leave the great barrack hospital, Eng
land wished to give her public well
come, but such a thing was alien to her
taste and was avoided by the heroine
slipping into England unexpectedly
under An assumed name and declining
to come out OF her retirement at Lea
Hurst. Only the command OF her
sovereign to visit her at Biimoral
could induce her to leave home, and
after Victoria had thanked her in the
name Of the English people and decor
atsd Ler with splendid medal she
went back to Derbyshire. The two
years Of work in the east had perma-
nently injured her health, and since
then she has bee1 more Or less OF an
invalid. 4 fund Of $3.50, 900 which tho
English people presented to her was
accepted and was at once devoted TO
the founding of training school for
nurses, witch is known as the Florence
Nightingale School For Nurses. 1t
was the first Of It's kind. Her work III
the Crimea led to the organization of
the Red C,oss society, which. has dore
so much ior the sufferins III war and

equate as our hospital arrangements
may haye been, they we're perfection
compared with those that prevailed
in the Crimea. And, as copgratula-
tions pour in to Florence Nightingale
from all over the world, 1t would lie
only proper tribute to the heart ard

Perhaps there has been no time
slnce the days Of reconstruction when
the race problem was more to the fore
in the minds Of the whole people Of
tie nation than now. The recent
Iynchines of negroes in Georgia, the
political aFboava] in North Caroiina
and the proposed amendment to our
State constitution have turned the
eyes Of the nation upon the South
as it relates especially to the race ques
ton. And 1t is gratifying TO note the
people OF the North are seeing things
in the clear light Of truth at last, which
means much for our future, politically.
The commonwealth. (Scotland Neck, N.C.) 1896-1929, 1899-06-01

From remarks by persons from va
rious parts of the State as we have
heard them recently, it seems a pretty
sure conclusion that the constitutions
al amendment will be carried. And
there is d general belief that 1t VIII be a
long stride towards purifying politics il
North Carolina. The good people o.
condition ol things politically that
they can vote for men OF real character
and not have to swallow some things
solely IN the interest Of the party.

This is June of great moment to
many a young man in North Carolina.
From the various colleges and other
institutions of learning many young
men GO forth with their diplomas, and
some without them, ell to try their
fortunes in the real battle of life. It
is a matter of great moment with them
that they start right. What to do,
where to do it, and how, is the great
question with them.
Whatever they do and wherever, let
them he careful to do we'll and truly
every task and keep before them the
high standard which their preceptors
and friends have marked out for them.

Almost every day one hears some
one iamenting the hard lot OF the
"poor farmer" And truly many OF
them Go have a hard lot. But one has
only to make a casual observation now
and then to find the real cause for
much of the great disadvantage at
which the farmers of the country la.
bor. In almost every we'll filled gro
cerv store throughout the land you
may find great quantities OF corn,
meal aud hay ; and upon close inquiry
vorl will find that the farmers in many
loc.lities are the best customers for
such things. And here is the trouble
farming never has, never will, and nev-
ar can pay, in the true sense of paying,
until farmers are more independent at
home. And the way to be more In
denandent is to raise on the farm the
products which the farm must con-
sumo.
