What they need moet is the chance, but the chance cannot coaoe to them unless the ave nues of n utilitarian education and practical training is pro vided aad pmde accessible. This is a question which the Southern - States mast meet sooner or later._ K. The rapid advances in the price of beef ia keenly felt in thia town.

Tbe pro moters believe that if sack a move can be adopted ia the towns and cities a drop in tbe prick of beef will be tire result. McAtamiLE TONS.

Fix deeply in- mfnd the grand truth that life power rules the body and that it alone can cure disease. Life power lives on air, water, and food only; all else is hurt ful. Make cleanliness your motto, and watch against filth in both house and grounds. Few starve for bread, but many for air. Breathe deeply a hun dred times daily. Wear no tight clothing. Above all, ventilate your sleeping room. Beware of gluttony. If the appetite ia doll, eat fruit on ly, or eat nothing. Use no fiery condiments, but live chiefly on natural mains, vegetables, and fruits. Never ask your stomach to chew your food—employ your teeth. Adorn yotnr table not on* ty with viands, but with flowers, and smiles and kindly words. ' Deformity is not awkwardness only, but danger. A high chert will give freedom to breathing and digestion and help to core many diseases. Thick blood causes colds and countless other diseases. Kedp the lungs active by deep breath ing, the skin fay baths and fric tion, the kidneys by free draughts of warm water, the bowels by correct eating, and the blood will be pore. Spend part of each day in study pert in muscular work and pert in rood deeds to men. Our neighbor, Tux Gastonia Gazette, has enlarged her sphere and become a semi-week ly.
