CHILDREN's MANNERS.

cHILDRENs MANNERS.
Before it is too late I would like to say a few
words about the American child and its manners.
a subject which seems 10 be vexug the mind of
the public at present.
Regarding the manners OF the child Of this
country compared with those of other countries I
maintain that it makes little difference IN the long
run whether the child is native Of the United
States OF Europe. Asia Africa.
The customs are certainly different but there
are good and bad manners everywhere. just as
there good and bad hearts.
Children are born mimcs therefore 1t behooves
the parents or teachers TO set the right example.
AS bodily ailments. eccentrcites or lkenesses are
inherited surely are dispositions and temper
aments. and as predisposition to any disease or

THE WEE OF LEE.

THE WEB OF LIFE
There's a task that Is set for our doing:
The threads have been chosen with care.
And when through with weaving
We will find It's pattern most rare.
We would not have used the dark colorE,
But fain would have chosen all bright.
But the dark will but add to the beauty
When We view It in heavenly light.
For Cod holds the warp. and our weaving
Is making the pattern Alright;
Some day We ourselves may behold II, 81
Completed and pleasing and bright.
Then will comprehend clearly
What here could not understand,

Trusting all TO the Lord who has planned.
For when all the work has been finished
We viii find every thread IN its place:
God will give us the strength for the abor
From out Of his infinite grace.
Fer He is the Master designer:
The patterns he sets Us are best;
So will go with the weaving
And trust 10 God all Of the rest

MARrYRDOM OF DAUGHTERS.
As the Housewives Exchange has disposed more

can child. wish it would throw little light on
subject that is close to my heart-the martyrdom
of daughters. We hear good many complaints
from elderly and old persons that they are being

aside. overlooked-but l don't remember to have
heard young complain of being sacri-

with his hat in his hand and looked at the girl.
 T can't believe that I would have forgotten you" he said.
 The girl laughed. well. you have, but I'll forgive you this time. I'm Grace Hereth, and met you in Colo rado Springs one summer five or. six years ago"
 Morford remembered being in Colo rado Springs about that time. but still he didn't remember the girl. So he smiled at her his slow, quiet smile and mumbled an apology.
 I'm going to punish you" she said gaiiy, ''by singing to you before let you go. because sang for you then and I did think you wouldn't forget my voice if you did forget all about me"
 He cast one backward glance at the cloud Of sheep contentedly grazing down the creek, and followed her into the parlor on the other side of the house. t3
 She flung her hat on the table and sat down at the plano.
 A"what do you like2' she asked, with a dazzling glance over her shoulder
 He wasn't particular. He had no choice.
 She ran her fingers lightly up and down the plano and played the pre- Jude. More sophisticated listeners than Morford would have forgotten that 1t was old and tin-panny. Then she began to sing, a popular little bal- lad that had grown hackneyed in the cities but the sheep man had not heard it. He moved nearer the plano. Some- thing in him that had been starved and neglected for years came suddenly to life. Unconsciously he realized what he had been missing.
 Don't stop" he begged eagerly, as her. fingers fingered over the last chord. And she went on. She sang 1 love songs and coon songs that have long since been the property of street pianos, and some of them awoke in the mans mind memories of days that were not spent watching sheep on the range. She came on down to date and sang new popular songs and told him about the musical comedies that had carried them and the singers who had made hits with them. She had been | in New York all winter taking less sons.
 He was like a man in trance when she finally got up from the plano and announced that she must go. He walked with her out through the of- | flee and said goodbye to her at tae foot of the stairs. He couldn't find adequate words to thank her for the pleasure she had given him. What are you foing with Dave MeMurtrie's girl?" asked the hotel man.. Trying to cut him out?' Morford walked up suddenly. He walked over to the window and looked out As far as he could see down Chicken Creek to the south and across | fleck of grayish white on the brown of the buffalo grass. The Bark range was clear of sheep. The Bark boys had planned and executed theii schemes cleverly. The work had beer done without quarrel or bloodshed, but not without the aid of woman. "Gol-swizel that girl" said Morfort to himself In suppressed rage. T nev' CT did see her before in my life"

away from all other devices for cot- ton picking. Our principle Is to in crease the capacity of the negro, not to pick cotton by machinery. One of these machines will gather from 2,500 to 5000 pounds of cotton daily and the arms may be operated by children"
 MT. Lowry is the inventor of the roundlap cotton bale. He is a young man and a native of Ireland He says the inperfections in his cotton ncker are due to his lack of knowledge of growing cotton. Since he has made a closer investigation of the plant ne says he will be able to overcome every defect in the machine.
 After traversing about 200 feet for the edification of the spectators the machine was stopped and the crowd gather ed about it. General Sanford offered a resolution of thanks to Messrs. Hill and Lowry for the demon- stration and endorsing and approving the machines as 8 great success. which was adopted.
 Cunningham Cotton Picker.
 The crowd called for Governor Cum ningham who spoke briefly in appre- ciation of the demonstration.
 T am something of cotton picker myself" said the Governor, but that little negro there has considerably overcome my record of a day in these past few minutes. It's good record too. I can pick 200 pounds a day"
 Mir. Hiil introduced Mir. Lowry to the crowd as "the greatest cotton pick CT on earth"
 ]. Responding briefly Mir. Lowry said that whatever merit there was In the machine was to be given to the South. It was to be manufactured In the South altogether, and if 1t was a suc- cess, the South would reap the re- ward.
 The party then returned to the train which left for Montgomery immedi- ately.
 The cotton picker will remain on MT. McLemore's plantation another week.

 "Get McMurtFie stirred up once, ? said Popcorn Johnny, "and he'll show that sheep man thing or two" There wassno sign of McMurtrie when Morford came in to dinner. He looked around nervously and then de- cided that the Bark range boys mad accepted the inevitable. There was nothing they could do while he was watching his sheep.

 Morford was a typical sheep man quiet, calm, apparently unaggressive and stubborn. He was of medium height with a blonde beard and dreamI far-away blue eyes. Where his fore head had been protected by his hat I was as white as a babys, in startling contrast to the lower part of his face
