That which is a luxury to one man is a necessity to another, not because, the men are differently constituted, but because of the habits thev hnvn formed. Relatively rich people s af ter trom hard times almost as much as the poor: thev mav not sutler from cold or hunger, but from the loss of thines to which thev have been ac customed. A man who has lived at the rate of ten thousand a year feels poor when reduced to two thousand, though the latter income would ap pear almost fabulous to the working man who contentedl' provides for a large family on less than half the amount. This difference is largely a matter of habit, and it is conducive to happiness to maintain a habit of life well within one's income, so that adversity may not require a radical change. The poor and people of eveu moderate means are compelled to be economical if they would avoid fall ing in debt; it is those who have good incomes who need to be admonished to practice economy. They need not be penurious or deny themselves any rational enjoyments, but they should establish such an economical habit as would enable them to retrench without discomfort if loss of income should require it. The influence of such an example upon the children of a family is use ful, for children ought to be trained to habits of thrift. The child who is given money for the asking and al lowed to spend it freely may be ruined by the indugence. He quickly forms habits bad in themselves, from which he cannot easily divorce him self when he is thrown upon his own resources. No matter what his ex pectations may be, he should be taught to live well within his income and to spend his money with good judgment. Where this parental duty is neglected the spoiled child may be rendered unhappy in his adult life or be driven into a criminal career. Very many of the crimes against property are committed by young men who are not in actual want. They have enough to eat and homes to shelter them, but they have wants of another kind which cannot be sat isfied by the fruits of honest labor. They are the victims of habits fos tered by overindulgence and by a failure to instill in their minds habits of economy. Objection is sometimes made to any sucirestiou of economy because it is confounded with penuriousness. This is not a well-founded objection. It is curious to observe that it is the. economical only who have any sur plus with which to help otl ers; the men who are known as generous, open-handed fellows are generally self-indulgent and have nothing left for charity. There are economical persons who are also penurious, but there is no necessary connection be tween the two habits. The true economical man is, iu the first place, honest. He does not spend more than he gets, nor enter into obliga tions he cannot fulfill. In this re spect he is a better man than the generous fellow who entertains his friends while cheating his creditors. The economical man keeps an eye upon the future and through his savings provides for his old age, and in this respect also he is better than the liberal man who, having squan dered his income, becomes a burden upon his friends or upon the commu nity. Moreover, the economical man keeps his tastes and passions under control, so that he forms no expen sive habits, the abandonment of which in case of a failure of income would render him unhappy. The measure of economy which the indi vidual should practice varies with income and the demand upon it, but it should always be such as to enable him to live honestly. How to Prerent Croup. We have two children who are subject to attacks of croup. Whenever an at tack is coming on my wife gives them Chamberlain's Cough Remedy aud it always prevents the attack.

Civilization as history shows it is like a road in the hill country, up and down; born in poverty and ignor ance, and dying in affluence and pleasure; thus the history of the past is but the history of the rise and fall of nations. However, from the high tide of each nation something has been preserved to add to our perma nent progress. The question often arises, '"Will our magnificent civil ization go on to perfection or rot at the top, like other civilizations?" The hope of a country is in her succeed ing generations. The boys and girls of to-day are the men and women of the next generation. "We may read in our children the future of our na tion. As my children begin to take position as citizens, this question be comes more interesting to me. "When I begin at New Orleans on the Gulf, I find the steps of the for eign part of the city crowded with French and Italian children, as dis tinctly foreign in looks, language, and habits as if born in France and Italy. When I come up into the cities and towns of Alabama, Georgia, and Mississippi, aud find the cabins in the negro quarters jammed together and as full of negro children as a cheese is of skippers; and when I find the old farm residences of ante-bellum days deserted by the whites, who have moved into the towns and cities, and literally full of negro children, all of whom are growing up almost as ignorant as if in the heart of Africa; when I go to the northern and eastern cities, and find the crowded portions of the cities made up of foreign languages and habits, and almost every home crowded with childreu; when I add to this the fact that the saloon gets its heaviest pat ronage from these classes and conse quently these children are born into the world part drunkards by here dity; and when I add the other fact that these children are without homes, with uo religious training, turned loose in streets and alleys as scavengers of all the impure things about them, drinking, stealing, gam bling, cursing and lewdness on every hand, I confess the picture is not eu couraging to me. In the face of this picture is an other fact, that in the homes of the more cultured Americans there are few children to be found, and to what is called high society child-bearing is becoming a reproach, and children are an accident and a nuisance, guarded against by infernal medical skill. I ask you as a thoughtful citi zen to get into your buggy, and drive down the leading streets of your city, then in the back streets, and count the children. Then look forward 20 years and count citizens and voters. But as dark as this picture looks, I am candid to say I have as much hope in the lower classes as I have in what is called the highest class of so ciety. I have very little hope in either. My hope is in the middle class. So far as making useful citi zens is concerned, I had about as soon risk the ignorance and neglect of the slums as the card table, wine supper, dance and theatre of the up per class. The United States is taking some interest in stock raising and iu amusements. We are raising well bred horses, cows, hogs and dogs. We have journals on horse breeding, journals on dog breeding, and on cattle breeding. I think it would be well to have some more good litera ture on the breeding of children. I do not think our ancestors came from the monkey, but I do think we had better block up the road that leads to the razor-back hog. The country seems to be headed that way. I notice from the papers that all our schools and colleges are fuller this year than usual. This is a good indication, but the boys and girls are located in college boarding houses and private families, away from the kind and salutary influences of the mother. The bad our children get away from homt at school, mixed with the good they get, makes in many cases a doubtful compound. The higher colleges are going to "seed" in amusement "clubs" and "teams" and secret societies. "Col lege yells" are becoming more prom inent than college honors. The aver age college boy who can wear tooth pick shoes, part his haU?- in the mid dle, set his hat on the back of his head, belong to a "team" and give the college "yell" seems to be satis fied with himself, provided hi3 daddy foots the bills. In many cases the daddy had better foot the boy. Thank God there are many schools where girls and boys may secure the very best training of head and heart It seems that every fad and new in vention is bidding for our boys and girls. The ballroom and the bicycle bid for our modesty. Moonlight balls and moonlight bicycle parties bid for our purity. Sunday bicycle excur sions, street 'cars, parks, lakes and pavillions bid for our Sunday-school boys and girls. Social clubs, dances and cards take our boys from home at night. The various triefcs of trade bid for the honesty of our boys, the cigarette, the saloon, the card table, the bicycle clubs and ball teams bid for their health and morals, and the boy who runs the gauntlet to-day and makes a clean, honest business or professional man is the rare ex ception. The hope of the country lies in the few homes where, by the family altar and proper restrictions and care, the boys and girls are raised for God, the church and a successful business life. Sam P. Jones. A Habit That Needs Reforming. A man's word should be his bond. Nothing is truer and nothing would restore confidence between man and man more readily or surely. The habit of contracting debts making bills with no intention to pay them seems to grow with the increasing age. This is a matter of regret, and yet it appears to be true. Debt pay ing is a principle of honor as much as any other principle and no true or honest man can fail to pay his bills, if it is possible for him to do so. A man's promise to pay then should be as good as the payment it self. Meeting financial obligations should be encouraged. The pastors should insist upon it from the pulpit. The great leaders of the day ought to inculcate the idea into the people. It should be taught in our schools. It should be the aim of every good man. It should be a badge of honor. This would certainly bring about a better era. The question of paying debts is, indeed, an important one. It is radically and most positively wrong to cheat a man out of his money. Too many people enter into this matter lightly and look upon debt making as a trival sort of a thing. This should not be the case. When a debt of anj kind is made the party making it is morally bound to pay it if he can, and the debt should not be made when there is no possible way to settle it. We urge that people going in debt make an honest elTort to pay the liability. New Hooks. The Seaboard Air Line has issued this season three handsome illus trated booklets, "Winter Excur sions," "Southern Fines" and "Sportsman's Guide." These are now ready for distribution and will i be sent free of cost to any address. . Their "Winter Excursions" gives full information in regard to rates and routes to the best winter resorts in tie country. The "Sportsman's Guide" is one of the handsomest and most complete books of its kind ever seen by us. Its make up is artistic from cover to cover and it contains, not only information in regard to hunting grounds, guides, dogs, hotel rates, &c., but a digest of the game laws of the States covered by it and some actual experiences of hunters along the line of the Seaboard Air Line. The "Southern Pines" book let is also very artistically gotten up, and the information contained covers every point. Any or all of these will be mailed upon application to Mr. T. J. Anderson, General Pas senger Agent, Portsmouth, Va. Briefs from Bilhille. Time may be money, but ten years of it failed to make us a millionaire. Spain wants more war. But that's all right. America wants more col onels. The October poets are trying to peddle the gold of autumn for gro ceries. We have come to the conclusion that this world is so bright that even the raindrops are little beads of light. They may talk about money as they will; but every time the growl ers hear a dollar jingling they go to dancing. We have now reached that delight ful season of the year when the world turns i-ound to see if its credi tors are pursuing it. The literary club met last night to reform American literature. Very little was accomplished, as several policemen, fully armed, were present. The rain proved a great blessing to us. It killed off all the 4-cent cot ton, and swept the town into a new district where there are no tax col lectors. There will be no preaching in town on Sunday. Some time ago the brethren prayed to the Lord for rain, and the rain came and washed the church away. They have since decided that they won't interfere in these matters any more.

Dr. Experience and Dr- Reason to hold a consultation together, they will give yon the best ad rice that can be taken." When you have a bad cold Dr. Incli nation would recommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy because it is pleasant and safe to take. Dr. Experience would recommend it because it never fails to effect a speedy and permanent cure. Dr. Reason would recommend it because it is prepared ou scientific principles, and acts on nature's plan in relieving the limes, opening the secretions and re storing the system to a natural and healthy condition, tor sale by M E.

There were three new cases of j-el-low fever at Franklin, La., Tuesday. Five persons were burned to death in a hotel at Clairville, Cal., Satur day night, caused by a lamp explo sion. Thirty-one mishaps to American steamboats occurred during the fis cal year, involving the deaths of 283 persons. For criminally assaulting Miss Annie Morrison, near Tompkinsville, Ky., Arch Bauer, colored, was lynch ed Friday night. During a dispute over a property division, William Haynes shot and killed his brother Elisha near Pen Hook, Va., Wednesday. Heavy wind storms in Texas dur ing the past two days have seriously damaged the cotton crop, and A. G. Cook was killed near Houston. A wreck on the Rock Island road, near Fort Worth, Tex., Friday, re sulted in the death of eight men and the serious injury of two others. The German National Bank, of Pittsburg, Pa., closed its doors Tues day, with two million dollars liabili ties. The cashier stole $400,000 and fled. Tired of life at the age of 86 years, Herman Biswanger committed sui cide at his home iu Philadelphia, Saturday, by shooting himself in the head. The postoffice at Shenandoah, Va., was entered by burglars Wednesday night, and the safe blown open, and about $500 in money and stamps were stolen. At Greenville, S. C, Friday, John G. ChaEfiu, a contractor and builder, shot dead W. E. M. Grube, an archi tect, during a dispute over a small sum of money. In a quarrel over a divorced wo man at St. Louis, Mo., Tuesday, her former husband, Alexander Charl ton, was killed by John W. Edwards, her paramour. On testimony that she drank heavily, a Baltimore jury, on Mon day, set aside the will of Miss Char lotte Tyson, who left her large estate to her boarding-house keeper. At Hamburg, Va., Sunday night, Mrs. Susan Strickler, an aged widow lady living alone, accidentally caught fire from her pipe and was so severe ly burnt that she died soon after. Trouble between whites and blacks over politics culminated in a fight at Fort Worth, Tex., Thursday, in which Hope Adams, independent candidate for sheriff, was shot and killed. With the temperature at 40 de grees below zero, seven inches of snow fell at Huron, S. D., Monday, and drifted heavily throughout that State within 24 hours, delaying all traffic. The national bank examiner has made only a partial investigation of the affairs of the First National Bank, of Lisbon, O., but he finds that A. I. Childs the absconding cashier, was $G0,000 short in his accounts. Foreign Affairs. Fevers are on the increase in Ha vana and are causing appalling mor tality. Terrific gales continue to prevail on the south and east coasts of Great Britain. France and Russia are opposed to the Kaiser's personal invasion of the Holy Land. Anarchists have threatened the life of the President of the Swiss Confederation. The great building strike at Paris has ended, and all the t roops have been withdrawn. It is reported that Captain Drey fus has been taken back -to Paris to stand a new trial. A Norwegian vessel has been wrecked on Saltscar rocks, near Leith, Scotland, and 13 persons were drowned. I Commissioner Peck has secured a total of 203,000 square feet of space for the United States at the Paris Exposition. Warlike preparations by the Brit ish and French navies continue. A sham attack was made on Toulon by a French flotilla. At Ballinrobe, County Mayo, Ire land, serious collisions occurred be tween the people and the police, growing out of a United Irish Lea gue meeting. Temporary restrictions have been put on immigration at Santiago, ow ing to the large number of indigent negroes arriving there from Jamaica and other islands. The War Department has been no tified that 6,000 Spanish troops in Cuba have embarked for the return to Spain and that arrangements have been completed for 40,000 more in the near future. In rejecting the Cuban debt and also sovereignty over Cuba the Uni ted States peace commissioners at Paris are adhering strictly to the congressional declaration at the be- 1 ginning of the war. Last Week in Trade Circles. Special Correspondence. New York. Oct. 24, 1S98. Business conditions during the past week have undergone qo impor tant change. There has been con tinued activity in nearly all of the distributing trades, and a slight im provement is noted in the textile manufacturing situation. The latter, however, is still the least satisfactory feature of the industrial outlook. In most of the other branches of manu facture productive capacity appears to be generally well employed. Southern trade has been benefited by cooler weather and the partial lifting of yellow fever quarantines; and throughout the West and Northwest the recent marked improvement in general business has been fully sus tained. The continued activity in the export trade in breadstuffs and other products is a most encouraging feature of the situation. The foreign demand has received additional stimulus during the week from the strained relations between England and France. Railroad earnings con tinue to show substantial gains, al: though recont comparisons have been with returns for corresponding periods in 1897, when the increases were conspicuously large. Bank clearings also attest a volume of business larger than at the corres ponding period in prior years of greatest trade activity. Business failures duriug the past week, ac cording to R. G. Dun & Co., num bered 221 in the United States and 24 in Canada, against 224 in this country and 3b in Canada during the corresponding week last year. Cotton prices have advanced i of a cent for spot sales, for no appa rent reason except that speculative support was stronger early in the week in anticipation of killing frosts in the South, which 1id not appear. There has been continued activity in Liverpool; but in that market prices hare eased off slightly, owing in part to fears of the outcomo of pend ing political complications. The movement of the crop has continued large, and there have been liberal exports; but demand from Northern spinners has been only moderate. Fall River manufacturers have come to an agreement to curtail produc tion for several weeks during the next few months, to pool surplus stocks and to place the control of sales in -the hands of two trustees. The effect has been to advance prices of print cloths 1-16 of a cent per yard, and there has been sym pathetic strength ia the market for light weight staple cottons; but other cotton manufactures are un changed in price, and, as a rule, the market still favors buyers. Trade in cotton goods shows a little im provement, but is still within very conservative limits. Wheat prices show a net gain for the week of 1 to 3 cents per bushel. The advance reflects the effect of the continued activity in the foreign demand. Sales for export have been very large, and practically all avail able freight room in the regular line steamers has been engaged until the end of the year. There has been also a heavy chartering movement for loading dates extending well into 1S99. The urgency of the foreign demand has doubtless been increased by the political tension between England and France. The purchases of wheat, however, have been mainly due to the low reserves in all coun tries. According to Beerbohm's "Corn Trade List" the world's visible wheat supply on October 1st was smaller than that of the correspond ing period in any of the last seven years. In addition to this incentive to free buying of wheat, importers have been stimulated by the reason ableness of prices in this country and by adverse crop accounts from Russia and Argentina, which suggest the probable necessity for greater de pendence upon United States sup plies than had been expected when the crop year opened. Prices of corn are to i of a cent per bushel higher, owing to the con tinuance of a big foreign demand. The movement from the West has been of good volume, but weather conditions have been unfavorable for the drying out of the newly cut grain. Indications point to a large domestic consumption, which, in connection with the liberal exports, promises a comparatively close ab sorption of supplies during the com ing crop year. Values of hog pro ducts have ruled a shade stronger, owing to a good distributing trade and a fairly active demand for ex port. - - A Town Without Chiiunejs. A curious thing about the construc tion of dwellings, stores, etc., at Key West, Fla., is that not one of them has a chimney or anything that will answer the purpose of a chimney. Handsome residences and lowly hovels are alike in this respect. The reason for it is that wood or ordinary fuel of any kind is never needed in a climate like that of this southern city, as the tropical atmos phere furnishes all the heat required, and for cooking purposes sticks of carbon are used, which are sold by peddlers. ALL OYER THE STATE A Summary of Current Eients for the Past Seven Days. J. F. Hancock, of Asheville, took an overdose of bromidia Sunday eve ning and died Monday evening. Robert Baugham, aged 28, was killed by a train near Edenton, Fri day morning, while walking on the railroad track. Miss Annie Phillips, of Richmond county, fell down stairs Sunday night and received injuries from which she died in a few hours. Thomas Davis and Walter Allison were crushed to death in a quarry at Asheville, Wednesday morning, by a slide of earth and rock. The private bank of Guirkin & Co., at Elizabeth City, closed its doors Wednesday. Several of the citizens and business men lost heavily. Dan Brown, colored, was shot and instantly killed at Winston, Tuesday night, by Walter Jeffries, another colored man. A woman was the origin of the trouble. Arrangements are being made to light Salisbury by electricity. It is proposed to locate a plant on the Yadkin river and furnish power from there for various purposes. At Ashpole, Robeson county, Sat urday night, a band of a hundred ne groes made several attacks on the town, threatening to burn it, and se riously wounded three white men. M. P. Bogle, wife and five children, who six years ago left their home in Caldwell county and moved to Port land, Oregon, returned by wagon last week, having traveled over 4,000 miles within fifteen months. Minor Lytle, colored, was run over and killed by a train near Arden, Buncombe county, Thursday. Lytle was walking on the track. He was 60 years old and had but recently re turned from the penitentiary. The Raleigh Post says no announce ment of pardons has been given cut at the executive office in many weeks. It is stated, however, that the Gov ernor is issuing many pardons but the news of them is kept secret. Lawrence Boyd, colored, was kill ed on J. C. McCanless' farm, near Salisbury, Tuesday night. There is some mystery about his death. A colored man and woman who are be lieved to be implicated in it have been arrested. Nearly all the cities and towns in the State are now putting tramps at work. Until the past few days tramps have been very scarce since last spring. Men caught beating their way on trains are given the same punishment. The plan now is to muster out the Second Regiment at various points in the State, beginning November 1st. Two companies will be muster ed out at Charlotte, two at Fayette ville, one at Lenoir, two at Ashe ville, one at Greensboro, etc. One year ago the total resources of the banks in North Carolina were $9,431,823.40. This year the re sources are $10,520,900.30. This means that the wealth of the banks of North Carolina has been increased $1,075,076.90 during the past year. At Lincolnton, Thursday night, burglars entered F. P. Cauble's jew elry store and robbed it of all the best watches and jewelry it contain ed. The stolen property is valued at $175. Dr. John Reedy 's drug store, in the same room, was robbed of a box of cigars. The link of the narrow gauge rail road between Hickory and Newton has been completed and the first train passed over Saturday. The last spike was driven at Hickory by Miss Sallie B. Martin with appropri ate ceremonies and a banquet at Hickory Inn followed. Frank Chase, aged 63, of McDowell county, in attempting to cross the platform between the cars on the Atlantic, Tennessee and Ohio train at States ville, Monday night, fell and the train passed over him, crush ing him in a horrible manner. He was a juror at Federal court. Sam Flake, colored, of Wadesboro, who was employed as a section hand by the Southern Railroad, near Sal isbury, was struck by a train Sunday mowiing and received injuries which caused his death soon after. He was sitting by the side of the track when struck, and it is supposed he had gone to sleep.
