I want to help Nellie out. I, too,
believe "a woman can win love or
hatred" Some women, after they
are married, seem to think they can
be as cross and unpleasant as they
want to; it makes no difference
about the husband, they have him
fast.
Now I want to say: Don't quarrel
him into measures. Don't think to
show your temper is being independ-
ent. Remember, you promised to
take him for better or for worse.
You knew him before you married
him. If she will be as sweet and at
tentive to him as she can, when he
comes home at night, he will not long
for the club. Instead, sometimes
she meets him with a snappish word
and tells him of everything unpleas-
ant that has happened that day
about the housekeeping. He, of
course, begins to get cross, and from
bad to worse they quarrel.
This is one way to win hatred.

One Woman on the Cotton Outlook.

Dear Aunt Jennie:-Again has
the mountain labored, and brought
forth the same old mouse; this time
larger and stronger than ever be-
fore. and indeed he ought to be, be-
caU>. he has lived to grow grey with
az. auI-it Is to be presumed-wis-
dom.
So now we can look forward to the
time when we can sell cotton for
fifteen cents per pound. or more.
That Is, provided that France,
England, Germany, and other for
cign countries give up the notion of
raising cotton in Africa. which, of
course. they will do. when they learn
that the cotton farmers in the United
States are intending to reduce
acreage and make them pay more
for cotton. All this sounds very
pleasant 10 those who are in a sit
u"'l"n To raise cotton. But it
strikes me that the most important
'hln" Mt this time is to consider how
VI" arc to raise and gather the cotton.
You remember there was great
complaint last year of scarcity of
labor all over the cotton States, and
II was said that some cotton re-
manned in the fields ungathered. l

to cultivate their farms for love nor
money. And it is next to an impos-
sibility to get load of wood cut.
And as for cooks, it is funny to see
men riding all over the country Of
fering big prices for women to do
the cooking.
So. 1 think while our farmers are
pledging themselves to increase the
price of cotton, they would better
be bringing some laborers here to
till the soil and raise the cotton, not
saying anything about other crops.
We have always been depending
on negro laborers, but unless the
whites stop renting them land that
dependence is nothing.

Ambition: Worthy and Unworthy.
Union Co., n. @.

Dear Aunt Jennie For some
time [ have been at the door listen
ing to the "Chatterers," and enjoy
hearing them so much I have de-
cided to venture in tonight.
Aunt Jennie, isn't it strange that
people are never satisfied? They
long for something; they get it, and
then, they want something else just
as much, and seem to be no better
satisfied than at first. There's, with
almost every one, "a vague unrest
and an aimless longing" And why
is this? 1t seems to me that it
should not be so. We should try,
and seldom fail, to be contented
with the lot God has assigned u.s.
No matter how hard it is, it is His
way, and His ways are always the
best. Of course, we sometimes see
those to whom life is nothing but
pleasure, as it appears to us, but, II
we could look into their inner lives,
we would seldom find one that did
not have as great a desire for some
thing, as ourselves.
/ do not mean we should not have
ambition, but, don't let that ambi-
ton master you. Be sure you are
master of your ambition, and you
are all right.
I think when we know any thing
to be unattainable, it is very wrong
for us to grieve over that which God
has made impossible.
But we must be very particular in
drawing the line between the attain
able and unattainable.
After all. the real, greatest, no
blest purpose of life is to live a
Christian life, and everyone can do
that That is one thing God has
made possible with all. I am sure,
Aunt Jennie, you are wishing me to
make an end of my stay, but if you
will let me call again, [ shall gladly
do so. ELISE.

Andrew Jackson's Birthplace Should be
Marked.
Dear Aunt Jennie Il have been
listening for some time to the Chat
in your pleasant circle, and have
concluded to respond to your cor
dial invitation for the boys to join
you.
One thing I have been thinking
of: the people of North Carolina are
too prone after they have made his
tory, to let others have the credit
for their deeds of heroism and sac
rifce. / think that we ought to
know how to elbow our own horn"
am going to write bit of local
history, or rather something about
one or two great men from this part
of North Carolina who made his
tory. Andrew Jackson, the seventh
President of the United States, was
born about seven miles from where
| am writing these lines, in the Wax
haw settlement. March Is. 1857. His
parents lived on Twelve Mile Greek
near old Pleasant Grove Camp
Ground, in Union County (then a
part of Mecklenburg County,. And
be it said to the shame of North
Carolina. the spot where this great
man was born is only marked by a
pile of stones in a cultivated field
about three miles south of the town
of Waxhaw. / dare say that there is
not a case of similar neglect in the
American Union. Think of Jackson!
A man who President Roosevelt says
was the greatest President the
United States has ever had, with the
exception of Abraham Lincoln. a
man who gave the British the worst
licking they ever "toted," whipping
$4,000 veterans of Waterloo in one
half hour with 5000 raw troops, kill
ing 1900 British, and losing but
eight men himself. A man who had
the courage to defy the whole bank
ing system of the United States
when opposed to the welfare of the
common people,
Aunt Jennie, let us have the in
fuence of your fertile pen to create
sentiment which will demand that
the birth place of such hero shall
be marked properly. This part of
North Carolina is rich in history of
the early and stirring days when
this Republic was founded. But the
good women, who are ever foremost
in perpetuating the memory of our
heroes, have begun a movement
which will result in marking these
historic spots. The Daughters OF
