CHAPTER VIII.
RED SNOW DROPS.

One OF the last acts OF Governor Macon.
whose office was now under the control
OF the military c~omnandant at Charles
ton, South Carolina, was to issue a pro-
clamaticn appointing a day OF fasting and
prayer 70 God for deliverance from the
ruin that threatened The State under the
dominion of Legrce and the negroes.
II was a memorable day in the history
OF the people. In many places they met
in the churches the night before, aud
held all night watches and prayer-meet-
lngs. They felt that q pestiience worse
than the Black Death OF the Middle
Ages threatened 10 e~xtinguish civlliza-
ton.
The Baptist church at Hambright wax
crowded TO the doors with white-faced
Y Cmen and SOrrowful men.
About ten O'Clock in the morninr na1o
and haggard from a sleepless night Of
prayer and thought, the Preacher arose
TO address the people. The hush OF death
fell as he gazed silently over the audience
for a moment. How pale his face, Thev
had never seen him so moved with pas
slonS that stirred his inmoSt soul His
hrst words were addressed 10 God. He
did not seem to see the people before
him.
Lord, Thou hast beer our dwelling
place in all generations.

CHAPTER VII.
SIMON IEGREE

IL the death of Mr.. Lincoln. q group
OF radical politicians, hitherto, sup
pressed. saw lheil supreme opportunity
to obtain control of the nation in the
crisis OF an approaching Presidential
campaign.
Now they could fasten their schemes
Of prescription, confiscation, and revenge
upon the South
Mr.. Lincoln had held these wolves at
bay during his life By the power of his
great personality. But the Lion was
dead, and the Wolf, who had snarled and
snapped at him in life, put on his skin
and claimed the heritage of his power.
The Wolf whispered his message of hate.
and in the hour of partisan passion be-
came the master of the nation.
Busy feet had been hun fying back and
forth from the Southern States to Wash
ington whispering III the VOLTS ear the
stories Of sure success, if only the plan
Of prescription disfranchisement OF
whites. and enfranchisement Of blacks
we're carried out.
This movement was inaugurated two
years after the war, with every South
ern State in profound peace. and in a life
and death struggle with nature to pre-
vent famine. The new revolution deS-
troyed the Union a second time, para
lyzed every industry in the South, and
transformed ten peaceful States into
roaring bells of anarchy. We have easily
outlived the sorrows OF the war. That
was a surgery which healed the body.
But the child has not yet been born
whose children's children will live TO see
the healing of the wounds from those
four years OF chaos, when fanatics blind
ed by passion, armed four millions OF
naked ignorant negroes and thrust them
into mortal combat with the proud,
bleeding. balf-SJarving A~nglo-Saxon
race OF the South. Such a deed once
done, can never be undone. 1t fixes the
status Of these races for a thousand
years If not for eternity.
The South was now rapidly gathering
into two hostile armies under these in
iluences, with race marks as uniforms
ne Black against the White.
Tbs negro army was under the COM
nand OF a triumvirate, the ca~rpet-bag-
= r from the North, the native ~scaIawas
md the negro demagogue.
Entirely distinct from either of these
was the genuine Yankee soldier settler
IN the South after the war, who came

A Stirring Novel.

By THOMAS Dixon, JR., Of North Ol'JI"'-
Amador ledger., 1902-07-04
Period of Growth.

Children born between September
and February are, some authorities
state, not so tall as those born in the
summer and spring months. and the
growth of children is much mrre rapid
from March till August. The extremi-
ties grow rapidly up to the sixteenth
year, then there is slow growth till
the thirtieth year. The legs chiefly
grow between the tenth and seven
teenth year.
Comparing the general results, it ap-
pears that there are six periods of
growth. The first extends up to the
sixth or eighth year and is one of very
rapid growth; the second period, from
eleven to fourteen years, growth is
slow; the third period, from sixteen to
seventeen; the fourth period shows a
slow growth up to the age Of thirty for
height, up to fifty for chest girth; the
fifth period is one Of rest, from thirty
to fifty years; the sixth period is char
acterized by a decrease in all dimen-
sions of the body.
Amador ledger., 1902-07-04
The Human Mouth,

1t has been discovered that the hu-
man mouth is slowly but surely and
steadily moving toward the left Of the
face, which will in time bring it some
where in the neighborhood of the left
ear. All the five great races of man
have an uncomfortable tendency to eat
only with the teeth which grow from
the left jaws. This wears out the left
teeth more rapidly than those on the
right side Of the mouth, and this in
turn gives the upper and lower jaws
an inclination toward the left.
1t is the expressed opinion Of many
scientists who are foremost in the
worlds roll of professional honor that
in the course of time the mouth from
causes above mentioned will have COM
pletely changed its position and that it
will then be situated rather nearer the
left ear than to the nose.

COFFEE ADuLTeRANTs.
The List Runs Through the Alphabet
From to w,

from A 10 w.
If all of the substances that pass
through a coffee grinding machine dur
ing the year should be written in al
phabetical order, "a would begin the
list with acorns, and ''w'' would end it
with wormwood, sprouts of which are
sometimes used to give the debased
coffee slight aromatic bitter taste.
Adulteration occurs largely in the
coffee that is sold in the ground form.
Several coffee berry factories have
been discovered in Europe which were
doing a large and profitable business
by molding an admiXture of tanbark,
stove rust, clay. sawdust, chicory
coffee sediment and coffee meal into
a neat berry by the aid of some agglu-
tinant, and these berries were so well
made that the deception was not dis
covered for long time. This produc-
ton had large sale among the lower
classes of Russia and Poland, and,
mixed with the genuine coffee berry,
its sale was quite lively in other parts
of Europe
Unroasted coffee berries are often
made from oat and rye flour and corn
meal. The natural aroma of these
grains is destroyed by some process.
and after the proper amount of coffee
aroma is added the berries are formed
and caused to maintain their shape by
some adhesive substance. The test
usually employed to discover this de-
ception is to place the beans in re-
ceptacle containing warm water, which
will dissolve them in a few hours

A True Poem.

How hard it is to tell what makes
true poem, lasting poem! When one
asks himself what it is, how many
things arise, how hard to narrow the
list down to few things! Is it beau
ty? Then what is beauty? One meets
with beautiful poems every day that he
never thinks Of or recurs to again. 1t
is certain that without one thing there
is no real poetry-genuine passion. The
fire came down out of heaven and con-
sumed Elisha's offering because Elisha
was sincere. Plan and build your poem
never so deftly, mankind will not per-
manently care for it unless it has gen.
uine feeling. 1t must be impassioned.
John Burroughs in Century.

Hfs SpecinI Grace.

"Yes," said a teacher in a south side
school the other day while endeavor-
ing to explain to her class how the
same word may have different mean
ings. there is more than one kind of
grace. Grace may be a girls name,
and grace means beauty, too; so that
when we say lady or anything else
is full of grace we mean that she or it
is beautiful in form and in character.
Now, there is another kind Of grace.
I wonder who can explain what it is.
Freddie, what does. your father say
when he sits down to breakfast in the
mornings?"
