UNsPoKEN WORDS.
BY go9N eoy1.r o.REu1J.1

BY JOHN BOYLE ORHLLY. According to Genesis, Hagar. the mother or 1shmael, was an Egyptian servant in the household of Abraham and Sarah. Because lshmael mocked at a feast given in honor of the baby Isaac, Sarah induced Abraham to cast out Hagar and her son into the wilderness. And Abraham rose up early in the morning and took bread and a bottle of water and gave 1t unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder and the child and sent her away. And she departed and wan dereo Tn the wilderness of Beer-sheba. Ana the water was spent in the bottle and she cast the child under one of the l shrubs. And she went and sat down over against him a good way off, as 1t were see the death of the child And she sal over against him and lifted up her voice and wept.
 And God heard the vosce and said (through an angeD Arise. lift eip the lad, and hold him in thine hand {; for l will make him a great nation. And God opened her eyes and she saw well Of water; and she went and filled the bottle with water and gave the lad drink"
 Genesis further tells how Ishmael be- came an archer. and that he lived to be 1S years old.
 The kindly. words that rise within the And thrill 1t with their sympathetic tone, But die ere spoken, fail to play their part And claim a merit that Is not their own. The kindly word unspoken is a sin A sin that wraps itself in puerst e1Iise And tells the heart that, doubting, looks
 within That!not in speech. but thought. the vir-
 tue lteE. But 't1s not so: another heart may thirst For that kind word, as Hagar in the
 wild
 Poor. banished Hagar!-prayed a we'll
 might burst
 From out the sand to save her parching
 child. And loving eyes that cannot see the mind Will watch the expected movement of
 the lip. AhI can ye let its cutting silence wind Around that heart and scathe 1t like A
 whip?
 Unspolren words. like treasures in the
 mine,
 Are valueiess until we give them birth: Like unfound gold their hidden beauties Which Cod has made to Bess and gild
 the earth. How sad 'twould be to see a masters Strike glorious notes upon voiceless
 lute! But oh! what pain when, at Gods own
 
 A heart-String thrills with kindness but
 is mute! Then hide it not the music od the soul, Dear sympathy, expressed with kindly
 voice, But let it like shining river roll To deserts dry-to lsearts that would
 rejoice. Ohl let the symphony of kindly words Sound for the poor, the friendless and
 the weak; And He will bless you-He who struck
 these chords,
 Will strike another when in turn you
 seek

Now she bites her lfps, now she works the muscles around them as If she had St. Vitus dance, now she actually catches hold of her lips with her fingers and stretches the loose, soft flesh till it Is distorted horribly.

Mr.. Al. Baker, of 713 Locus street,

but it made me strong and well, and

COURT PROMISES
MUCH BUSINESS,
Session at Leesburg Began
Monday.
THE LAWYERS IN ATTENDANCE.
Grand Jury an Excellent Body With y
w. Forester as Splendid
Charge of the Court-Americus Well
Represented.

Judge Littleiohn convened the No
vember term of Lee court yesterday
and indications point to full week
there ere all business is disposed of,
| though few cases of special interest or
Importance appear upon either of the
dockets just yet. But busy grand
jury is to be reckoned with.
And this excellent body, composed
of many of Lees staunch and represen-
tative citizens, got down to business
without moments delay.
The grand jury is composed of the
following named gentlemen,
Jno. w Forester, W. r. Clifton, G

Judge Littlejohn delivered a lengthy
and very able charge, which was listen
ed to with closest attention not only
by the jury, but all others in attend
ance.
After charging upon the usual points
Judge Littleiohn impressed upon the
jury it's duty as to Investigating all
cases thoroughly tothe end thatno gull
ty one, high or low, escape. He charged
them to follow out the law without fear
or favor, as upon the acts of this body
depended the safety of home, of the
state, and of society as well.
Vagrancy was dwelt upon at length,
as was gaming, the illegal sale of liquor
and various violations of law. Judge
Littlejohn was more than an hour in
delivering this very explicit charge.
After electing Mr.. j, W. Forester
foreman, the jury got down to bust
ness.
There are not q great number of
civil cases for trial, and few cases on
the criminal side, only one or two
shooting cases and these among ne
groes. Solicitor Hooper is ably repre-
senting the states interests, as usual.
