COOKE & SON, ATTORNEYS-A.T-LA.W, An amusing race occurred on the streets of Cuthbert, Ga., recently. A woman from the country came to town, bringing with her her d augh ter. The girl had a sweetheart, to whom she was engaged to be mar ried; but the mother objected. The sweetheart was in town,' and the girl decided to give the mother the dodge and have the marriage over The mother missed her and started out.to find her. It wasn't long be fore she spied the lovers together, but, as they saw her approaching, the girl ran and the mother gave chase. It was a -lively race. The girl sped as though fleeing from, the wrath to come. But the mother LOUISBCBG, K. C. irrm 0ftar,.i t mnrta of Nash.

Sworn to and subscribed before me this August 4 th, 1891, J. M. Lambebt, N P., Comanche Cc, Texas :an experience of travel. Hotr Woman Wu Well Unpaid lW a Little lilt of Kindness. It was a woman who was talking: a littls, giddy looking thine: but Bho was speaking quite nervously to ner traveling companions, telling a Btory of her experience on a former trip. Yes," she was saying, "Mrs. B. was with me, and I had my terrier along, as I was going home on a vis- It, and as usual with women who are traveling I didn't have any too much money ; in fact, I had spent all my al- owance except a dollar and was ashamed to let Jim know, so when the conductor told me I must send that dog to the baggage car and pay 1 for him at the end of the trip I relt pretty bad." "Mean old thing I" chorused the company. He said that it wasn't his fault that the dog was a perquisite of the Daggage man." "And then he tied him up and didn't give him a drink nor any" No, he didn't I Wait a minute. The car was crowded, and there wasn t a vacant seat. At one of the stations a tall, slim old ladv with .white hair got in and stood leaning against the side of the car door. I was cross and disagreeable and for a moment I just let her stand. Then I felt ashamed of myself, and giving the dog to my friend I went and asked the woman to take my seat She did not want to, but I told her I was going to walk up and down the car aisle for exercise, which I did." That was just like you, Nelly" No, it wasn t. I'm awfully selfish. but wait. After the car started a man in a checked gingham blouse and blue overalls came in and talked to the old lady and called her 'moth er.' When ho went out again, she told us wh?t a good son he was. At the next station we stopped 20 min utes, and Mrs. B. went out on th platform, and we walked up and dow, with Fido rnd left the mother and son to visit together. And what do you think? He was the horrid baggage man, and he let me keep Fido and wouldn't take a cent for him, though I offered him the last dollar I had. He said that a seat for his mother was worth more than that. Now, wasn't that a pleasant experience?" and tho little woman smiled over the memory. Detroit Free' Press. IS IT HAS IT DONE The oritri'inl and only genuine Compound Oxygen Treatment, timt of Drs.

': Nothing has occurred since the sweeping victory of 1892 to dis conrage Democrats. Mr. Cleveland in hia inaugural address met the expectations of bis party aad received the applause of the people. The President is an executive of ficer, and there is no intimation that Mr. Cleveland has not admin istered the Government accord ing to law. But, they tell ua that there is dissatisfaction in the- land and that we have narrowly escaped a most disastrous panic, ana tms is charged to the Democrats. The Democratic party had noth ing to do with it, except to check its progress and span the brow of the tempest with the bow of j rom ise. -The proclamation of the President, calling an extra session of Congress, in effect said to the warring elements Peace, be still; and billow rolled back upon billow, until the storm king retreated with hi3 batallions of cloud thunder and tempest. The most disgusting sight of the present day is the assembling of gangs of political nondescripts on the flanks of the Democracy trying to stampede the grand old party with idiotic shouts of "We told you so ! We told you so !" The Democratic party has car ried the flag of the Constitution through a hundred battles, and it is not to be stampeded by the rattle of pans nor by the braying of asses. It is an old saying "Don't cross Muddy Creek until you get to it." "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof." "Wait patiently the fullness of time. Wait until Congress is iu session.

Says a trained nuree: "Don't let the patient see the preparations for any little coming doty in the sick room. I've known persons weak from long illness become pos itively exhausted from seeing the arrangements to make the bed, perhaps, going forward. I nursed awoman once, relieving her daugh ter, and she confessed to me the week after my arrival that the re lief in the way I managed the re plenishing of the open fire was alone worth my salary. I brought the coal in from the hall outside always wheu.she was asleep, wrap ping it in a clotb, and, of course, putting it on piece by piece with my bauds gloved. "You have no idea how I have dreaded the coaling process, ' ehe said: 'My daughter had the coal scuttle standing ready, and as I would note the fire growing low I would dread for an hour, perhaps, that crash of coal which teemed inevitable." Loving care cannot always be trained care, and it is the latter a sick person needs. IMPOLITE THINGS. At a meeting of the stockhold ers of the Farmers' Alliance ware house held here this morning, it was determined to discontinue business after July 31st, 1603. The business of the warehouse is in good shape and the stock baa proven a good investment to its owners, but the scarcity of money has compelled quite a number of stockholders to with draw their capital and it was the sense of the meeting that it is better to close than attempt to continue business on a reduced capital. The warehouse baa quite a lot of tobacco on band and as booo as this can be converted into money the stockholders will be paid in full and the profits di vided. The above is a special sent from Henderson to the News and Observer at Raleigh and shows that the attempt to run a ware house in North Carolina on cut rate charges has prcven a failure. For a long time there was a clam or among planters that our ware housemen were making too much money and that the charges for selling tobacco should be reduced.

"The best way to test a man's faith in socialism," said a traveler to a representative of the St Louis Globe Democrat, "Is to watch what he does when he accumulates or is presented with a little property. I have a trusted employee who is a first-class man in every respect, except for his determination to talk and argue a little too much. For years he has been an ex treme socialist and has been argu ing about the crime of wealth. Not very long ago he refused to continue the discussions and seem ed very anxious to forget all he had ever said in favor of an equit able division of all the good things in the world among all the people living in it. . I laughed at him a good deal, but without success, and finally ascertained the cause. "He had for years been buying the house ho lived in by small in stallments, and not beiug a very good accountant had lost track of the flight of time, and was very much surprised one hue morning to find that he owned his house from encumbrance. The ground had increased in value about two per cent while he was paying for it and he is now worth three thousand or four thousand dol lars. "I forget how much he had been arguing was the maximum amount each American should be allowed to own, but it was a very small per centage of his present earthly pos sessions, and hence his abandon ment of the desire for dividing up The building associations scattered over the country in so many thou sands are the best anti-socialist advocates that can well be: imag ined. ' A NATURAL BOliS TRADER. itatville Landmark. An Iredell boy who is only 14 years old has, since January 1st, bought and 6old, all by himself and entirely on his own judgment, 37 males and 23 hcrses, Ue also made 21 exchanges, and has made seven trips 25 and 35 miles from home, carrying each trip from three to seven head of stock which he sold and exchanged. In addition he has bought, sold and exchauged 17 head of cattle and four wagons. Along with all this trading he is doing some farming and has 14 acres of corn in nue condition. In all these trades the boy has made a good profit and although so young in years can give veteran norte traders points about business. While this story has a fishy sound, it is really an underestimate of what the boy has done. Ita truth can be substantiated by a number of well known citizens, and the boy can be produced if necessary. The moral of this is give your boy a show.

Has it been bad management? We think not. Has there been un fair dealing toward the stock holders I No. Then the only way we can account for failure is the fact that they undertook more than they could carry out for the charges demanded. This with regard to the Alli ance warehouses generally. Ot the Henderson house especially it may be said they are all clever gentlemen, capable and experi enced business men managers, directors aud stockholders and did as well as any one could have done, bnt yon may put it down as a fact that no warehouse or any other bnsinees cau succeed in the long run on cut rate charges.
