hogany of life out of it's swamp will
lows" but now prosperity and mag
niicent railroad systems have
brought every comfort to the far
mer's door, and all things can come
to the hand that wills. Give your
wife the benefit of some of these
showers of blessings pouring over
magnificent State. Set aside
something annUally-if only one
bale of cotton for artistic purposes.
Call it your ''beauty bale" and if it
buy only n good picture, one pref
ty carpet OF book for a library, it's
worth to your family will be price
less. Plow and cultivate a rose
garden as skillfully as you do a cot
ton patch. Put out trees. There is
much to be said in excuse for the
ancient worship of trees. Plant the
easy growing honeysuckle and the
dear old morning glory. Every
child should have it's flower bed and
life should not be all kitchen gard
dening. Crafty the taste and love
women and children have for the
artistic in clothing, and at least let
the Sunday raiment be all you can
afford.
Women that are wholesome and
happy love color and beauty even in
clothing. Everyone is happy and
more capable when "well groomed. -
Jerome says, "People live up or down
TO their Clothes" God directed the
making of one suit of clothes, and
He put all the beauty of the Orient
into its texture and jeweled decora
tions. "There is generally some
thing very wretched in a woman's
life when she does not care for her
personal appearance and becames a
slattern, says Barrie. "Hard blows
of fate have benumbed all that was
ideal and artistic in her soul. Some
times like Mamie, she is kept so
busy washing and scrubbing for
Sandie that she ceases to care
whether her dress be clean or not"
The girl is but the woman in smaller
binding. If you want your daugh-
ter to love the farm, to long for it's
cool shades it's hills and sheltered
wales, you must make some effort
along ike lines of beauty in the ar
rangement of the house and it's sur-
rOundings.
Farm life becomes distasteful to
the growing sons and daughters as
soon as the longing for the ideal, the
artistic awakens in their characters,
and they will seek elsewhere for
that for which they hunger, simply
because the father and mother have
failed to point out and impress upon
them that every ideal and artistic
beauty may be possessed and elab-
grated on the farm. They have
been fed from birth only upon hard
facts, and there was no Sissy Jupe
to sing the merry songs of nature to
them. They have never been inocu-
lated with the truth that country
life need not be all written in dull
prose. 1t may not be possible for
the parents to get the many pretty
creations of the modern loom and
factory, but they a point out to
the children the varied tapestries of
Nature, they can bring to their
notice and cultivate appreciation for
the priceless loneliness of the grass,
the graceful motion of the waving
wheat, the flower painting in field
and lawn, and ever changing canopy
OF blue sky and white-capped cloud.
and the gorgeous coloring of the
sunset. The neglect to draw atten.
ton to and impress up the children
OF the country these God-given at.

FROM CAROLINA TO CALIFORNIA.

DEAR AUNT JENNIE On the 9Th
of July, Rev. G. M. Sheriff., my hus-
band and myself took the train here
at Newton on our way to the Ep-
worth League Convention in San
Francisco, Cal. We went by way of
Asheville.
At Chattanooga, Tenn, we were
delayed twelve hours. Most of the
tourists took advantage of the delay
by going out to Lookout Mountain,
General Bragg's headquarters and
other places of interest. Then on
we went again through a bit of Miss
issippi and hundreds of miles of beau
tiful Alabama, and then again into
Tennessee, until we reached Mem.
phis, now a rapidly growing city of
$50, 900 inhabitants. twenty-five
hundred houses we're built here last
year, and five hundred are now un-
der construction. Memphis also has
the largest wholesale, hardwood
lumber market in the world-three
hundred and fifty acres of land, Gov
cred with lumber, packed fifteen
feet high, except the wagon and car
ways.
Here we changed trains and
crossed the Mississippi river and
swept through Arkansas with it's
green fields, and fine timbered lands,
and pretty clean towns. We passed
through Little Rock and Texarkana
and entered the great State of Texas
with it's vast herds of cattle and i'm
mense plains. At Fort Worth we
were delayed fourteen hours. It
probably has the finest court house
in the South and the depot was one
of the incest I saw on the route.
After leaving Fort Worth, we
passed through hundreds of miles of
plains with scarcely any vegetation,
but the mesquite bush. We went
throught what was once called the

shown the old trail the immigrants
and United States Mail took on their
way to California, also the places
where at different times immigrants
were killed by the Indians. Rude
stones now mark their graves. But
the Indians and the buffaloes are
now subdued and the white man is
"lord of all that he surveys from
the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Along u route we saw the vii
lagos of prairie dogs, Indians and
Mexicans. At 81 Paso we were again
delayed for several hours, and most
of the tourists went over the line
into Juarez, an old Spanish town
now inhabited by Mexicans. At
FL Paso we could see mountains in
old and New Mexico. At the hotels
and depots I saw a number of Mex
leans, Chinese, Indians and some
Spanish. After leaving this place
we entered New Mexico, where they

See yonder poor, DER labour'd wight,
So abiect, mean, and vile,
Who begs q brother of the earth
To give him leave TO toll
And see his lordly fellow-worm
The poor petition spurn,
Unmindful, tho a weeping wife
And helpless offspring mourn.
IF I'm design'd yon lordling's slave,
By natures law design'd,
Why was an independent wish

If not, why am I subject TO

Achi supported the two previous
speakers in an able argument, but dur
ing his speech Senator White was eau
cussing among his constituents and the
Independents generally paid but little
heed to what was being said.
Brown moved that when the question
be put the ayes and noes be taken
but motion failed to carry.
Evidently fearful of the results of the
eloquence of the Republican Senators
upon his party, White moved tor an

Carter moved an amendment that the

AFTERNOON SESSION

The reading of the rules was resumed
at 100 o'clock with but few of the Sen
ators in their seats, the tardy ones
struggling in one at time until all
seats were filled The lobby was COM
posed entirely of Hawaiians, the white
people seeming to have lost interest IN
the proceedings.
The rules relating to the appointment
of the various committees necessary
met with long debate and ended IN
very few changes.
Two hours were spent in passing on
twelve sections of the rules, making
only twenty-nine adopted out of total
of 104 sections to be acted upon.
Senator White was the chief obstruc-
ZIONIST during the day and inspired
Achi to move that the rules be referred
back to a new committee and thai
White be appointed as chairman of the
same.
Carter moved that the report of the
old committee be received and tbs
committee discharged and that a new
committee be composed of Senators
White, Kanuha and J. Brown. Motor
was lost and the discussion Of the rule
again resumed.
| An attempt was made to pass upol
rule to restrict the free discussion
any subject brought before the Senat
by limiting any speaker to ten minute
for debate.
This was bitterly denounced by Car
ter. who pronounced it gag" law. &c
ell Brown expressed his opinion tina

National EnnmeIing Works.

Some of the papers have been print
ing stories relative to the removal Of
the National Enameling Works Of this
city to Baltimore or some other city.
The Register is in position to say that
to the knowledge of interested persons
in the city no such move has been con-
templated. 1t is true that the company
is considerably eramped for space since
the Novelty Works purchased the
buildings of the Bellaire Stamping Com
pany, but there is no doubt the COM
pany could secure building space near
their present location. The publication
of such erroneous statements embar-
raises the company in many ways, es-
pecially in securing employees. 1t is
said that other cities have made efforts
to secure this factory, even Offering
large bonus, but none OF them have
been accepted. This city has national
reputation for its enameled ware.

Sousa is to make brief tour in Sep
TENDER prior to his departure for Eng
land, where he is under contract for ex-
tended series of concerts, including four
weeks at the International Exposition
at Glasgow, Scotland. The short Amer
lean trip is limited to about half doz-
en- cities, and he will dedicate the new
music hall at the Pittsburg Exposition.
Wheeling is one of the favored cities,
and the Sousa Band will appear here
in two grand concerts at the State Fair
Grounds, on Saturday afternoon and
evening, September 81. Sousa has long
since assumed the character of an inter-
national celebrity, his fame now being
as securely established abroad as 1t is
ait home. The Sousa marches are play
ed in every civilized country on the
globe. and the Sousa Band has won by
conscientious effort and artistic merit
the distinction of the finest military
band in the world. The popularity of
the March King" both as conductor
and composer, was never as great as
at present, and he is assured of large
audience here to wish him good luck on
his British pilgrimage. Mr.. Sousa has
recently played a long and successful
engagement at the Pan-American Ex-
position, where his latest march, 1.-THE
Invincible Eagle" created a furore.
The new march will be a feature of the
popular programme Sousa will offer in
this city.
