Keep Your Children Busy.

Gertrude Okie Gaskell, in Woman's Home Com
Panion.
Keep your children busy it you
would have them happy. When the
occupation is some daily labor which
has been wisely allotted, see that it is
accomplished as well as 1t is possible
for the child to accomplish it under
existing circumstances. But whether
it be in work or play, let him under
stand that no matter how we'll he may
have done to-day-and do not be chary
of your praise-he has within himself
that which will make 1t possible for
him to do still better tomorrow. This
treatment, instead of discouraging, will
encourage, by melting the child to-
ward even better work, and will early
implant that spirit Of divine discomfort
which allows OF no absolute satisfaction
in that which has been accomplished
until the achievement reaches perfec-
ton. This Is the discomfort which
Emerson breaches aud which is holy
if doubt Is not allowed to creep In to
mar the aspiration.

Every man is rich or poor according
to the degree in which te can afford to
enjoy the necessarles, conveniences and
amueements OF human life. What is
bought with money or goois is pur-
chased by labor, as much as what we
acquire by the toll of our own body.

perintendent Of a force OF telephone
pole erectors offered ne dollar a day
for him. did not consider that seri.
6usly for I feared the boy might ial
of pole and meet death. Later
however, did land him. I secured
work in a cotton mill in nearby
town for him. It was not a gentle
mans job, but just such WORK as any
green hand could get there to-day. He
swept the floor, cleaned and oiled ma
chinery. For eight months he stuck
to the work like the man that he is. He
boarded and roomed with men who
could not read or write, but who knew
! how to curse and drink. His father
being poor man was not able to fur.
nish him with more than the clothes
he had on his back and a railroad
ticket to where he would work. There.
fore, the boy could not 60 to a first.
class house to board. He roomed with
seyen others. The room had two beds
Four occupied them in the day and
four at night. Board and room cost
So. The boy of whom I write made &C
cents day, or $1,000 month. At the
end of 8 months he bad saved few
dollars. He had learned vast deal
about mill life, much about the ma
chinery, something of the world and
had lived up to the moral training Of
his home. His superintendent liked
him and told him so. He saw grit,
determination and real worth In him.
To-day-less than three years since he
entered the mlll-he has position
with a machine shop as laborer who
aids in the erection of cotton mill ma
chinery, that pays him $40 a month
and all expenses. He has Travelled oyef
the entire South and has incidentally
gained a liberal education. At home
he got common school training. That
boy is made OF the right stuff. Each
day he will grow.
I could give enough examples OF this
kind to make book, but it is not nee
essary. If there be any one who would
like to Investigate further let him &C

shops; or to Liddell's or Wilkes Oh

American people, from poorest TO

of trying to get something for nothing

stump speaking and oratory. HI
thinks that the political campaign
furnishes the most inviting field, bu
makes the clear-cut observation that
no public speaker can afford to appear
before his audience without the bes
of preparation.
It is true that there has been So
much public speaking in the centres O
population and in the rural districts
as we'll during the past decade that one
has to be bright and original to keep
from "thrashing straw" which some
one else has handled before.
The truth Is, the public mind il
more enlightened than formerly ane
he who would instruct or entertain the
great crowd must prepare himself.
The latest political sensation il
South Carolina is the resignation o.
United States Senators B. r. Tillmar
and ]. L. McLaurin. In warm de
bate between them at Gafney, S. c.,
lew days ago, McLaurin charged
Tillman with being over-confdent il
his positions and remarks because b,
was speaking from bomb-proof, sls
years term In the United States Senate
To this Tlllman proposed that both
should resign and go before the people
McLaurin agreed to the proposition
and the result was the following dual
resignation sent to Governor McSwee-
ney:
1--WE hereby tender our designations
as senators for the State Of South Car
DINA in the United States Senate, t.,
take effect on November 10Th next.
"Yours respectively" etc.
McLaurin has two years yet in tn;
Senate, and the result will be that il
Tillman wins out before the people
McLaurir' 3 seat will be vacant and il
McLaurin wins he will succeed to Till
mans long term.
"Someting for Nothing" is the sig
nlficant heading of clear and stron Z
article In The Outlook on gambling
1t is pointed out that history does
not tell how early the gaming sense
began, but 1t is traced back to The
early ages OF the Egyptians, the Greeks
and the Romans and it's trail is traeed
through the Middle Ages in Cont
mental Europe.
Great and overwhelming vices com e
as the logical result of the game d
chance, and the desire and effort tt
get something for nothing is declared
to be the most demoralizing tendenc,
and the most dangerous temptation O.
our time and country.
Two very striking paragraphs ars
the following:
"From the newsboys playing crap:

CAPT. WILLARD'S CANVASS.

A dispatch from Richmond says an
interesting bit of gossip going the
rounds which may or may not be true,
Is that Capt. Joseph E. Willard. OF
Fairfax and Washington, candidate
for lieutenant governor of Virginia, has
closed his fioancial barrel on account OF
recent political developments. This
city and other localities 10 tho State are
understood to have received their
quota, but to other places, the decision,
II true, will strike CONSERVATION to the
hearts of the faithful. The cause for
shutting off the supply OF needful Is
stated to be the failure Of Attorney
General MoDtsgue's friends to stand by
the Fairfax candidate, The arrange
ment for delegates 10 Fauquier,
county neighboring to Fairfax. looked
only to the candidate for governor; no
provision being made for lieutenant
governor. Again, over 10 Richmond
county, g Montague stronghold, the
but for stsfe q ssnstoT Is
Cato, OF Wsohatesgue, Acoomac county
for lieutenant governor. As the story
goes, Capt. Willard has become dis
eusted at being MIXED for money to
run campaigns without receiving some
attention himself when the delegates
to the Norfolk convention are elected.

RAILROAD TALK.

1t is again reported that the South.
ern Railway is planning line from
Washington to the west through the
Valley Of Virginia. The Southern now
operates a road from Manassas to Har-
risonburg. The Baltimore and Ohio
operates from Harrisonburg to Lexiog-
ton. The Baltimore and Ohio Is said to
be running its link at dead loss. The
Southern's operation OF it's link Ia said
to be in remarkable degree profitable.
The Southern, everybody thinks,
will eventually get tho link from Hsr-
risonburg to Lexington. 1t wants the
uncompleted road from Lexington to
Salem.
The old Valley road was begun from
Harrisonburg to Salem in the early
seventies. All the counties along the
route subscribed to the building Of the
road. 1t was finished, evetually, to
Lexington. II was half finished to So.
lem. For nearly decade there have
been periodical rumors ofs completion.
At Lexington starts the old half.
finished road, extending through the
counties OF Rockbridge, Botetourt, and
Roanoke to Salem. The Norfolk and
Western runs through Salem west to
Bristol, Tenn. In q general way, Knox
Vile Is the nearest point on the line Of
the Southern westward from Salem.
