W OCRACOKE BILL ARPS LETTER. HE DILATKs KNOWINGLY UPON THE LOVE OF A MOTHER. Hn. Arp' Fight With the Croup Reme dies World Without End The Philoso phic Pair Discussing Medicine The Ma ternal Instinct Makes Woman a Natural Teacher. The most vital, providential and beautiful trait in our humanity is the maternal instinct. The love and care which a mother has for her offspring is the saving grace of childhood. Without it the litde helpless things would perish in their infancy, and the world become depopulated. For years and years I have watch ed these mothers watched and won dered and to my mind there is no greater proof of the love of God to the human race; than the intense, all- absorbihg love of a mother for her child. This love is not founded in any philosophy that we can under stand. Why should she love one child more than another? Why love her own ill-favored, fretful, trouble some offspring more than the beauti ful affectionate child of her neighbor? There are 65,000,000 people in the United States, and every one of them had a mother I reckon though the scriptures do speak of "man that is born of woman," like there might be some other sort somewhere. Perhaos 64,000,000 of them had a mother's love and care during infancy, and if that love and care could have been exclusive, unin terrupted and unprejudiced by out side influences what a world of good people we would have. I was ruminating about this the other night, because about midnight, -when deep sleep falleth upon a man," but not upon a woman with an infant child, there was an alarm up stairs, my wife struck a match and hurried up to find a little grandchild suffering with the croup. There is nothing in the world that so alarms a young mother as the croup. It comes so suddenly, and with such a sharp, metallic, unnatural crowning urmnrl that dith seems riPTit at new at the door, and what is to be done must be done quickly or not at all. The anxious mother trembles and pitiously begs for help help to save her child, her only child ; but Mrs. Arp has raised ten from the cradle to courting time, and they have all had the croup, a good deal of croup, and it is hard to scare an old soldier ; but still she has a holy horror of this in sidious, night-loving, treacherous dis ease, and she goes to fighting it like killing snakes. Syrup of ipecac is her favorite remedy, but she uses warm lard and turpentine, and flax seed, and onion juice, and calomel, and Dover's powder, and liniment, and warm water, and lobelia and nitrate of silver and some other things when necessary, according to circum stances and some of them always do the work and bring relief, and I have thought that if a small portion of all these remedies was put in one bottle and well shaken before taken, it would cure most infirmity that flesh is heir to. We were talking: about the alarm we had the other night and I remark ed that the inflamation of the mucous membrane of the larynx was always attended with "It was croup," said Mrs. Arp, "the child had the croup." t "Of course." said I, "but you know my dear, that when the trachea and bronchial tubes become partially ob structed with false membranes " "The child had the croup." said she. "It was a clear case of old-fashioned croup." "Under such circumstances," said I, "it is essential that the inner cuticle of the larynx be suffused with absor bents, and the outer epidermis be subjected to counter irritants be cause " . "Syrup of ipecac is better than either," said she, and so I subsided. The next morning after a case of croup, my wife begins with calomel and quinine to work off the cold, and and she generally prevents a return. She takes the lead as the family dc tor, and keeps on hand a pretty fair drug store. AH I have to do in such emergencies is to stand around and be handy, and move with alacrity and wait on her, and fire up the stove and bring hot water, and spill some of it on my bare feet and never flinch. If croup was the only infantile trouble bur conjugal life would have had a fair share of felicity, but there has been the wear and anxiety of teething and colic and scarlatina and whoop ing cough and measles and mumps and wounds and bruises without number, but it's all over at last, for the crop is laid by. We are playing patriarchs now, and helping these young mothers when we c n, but we have lots of rest and our old age is cJm and serene. Mrs. Arp is, I know for she is on the go more than I ever knew her, and hasn't any r xr- riage to go in either, and she is presi dent of the missionary society, and takes missionary papers, and takes all my litde money too, and the ten nis court is right close to the church where the missionaries meet, and I never know where she is exacdy, and last night she went to the blind man's concert, and I had to stav at home with the young mother and her child for fear of accident. That is all right Mrs. Arp said she would stay if I wanted to go, but she didn't ay it very strong, and I meek ly told her I didn't care to go, so it's all right. I wanted the young moth er to go, too, and leave the child with me, but she looked surprised and said: "No indeed, I wouldn't leave my child for all the shows in the world." And that's why I was ruminating over the maternal instinct, and I wish that it prevailed all over the world, and would keep these city mothers more at home, instead of going to the theaters and operas most every night and leaving their tender off spring with a nurse or some poor, tired old mother. If a woman has no littie children, and wants to preach or exhort or do something to reform mankind, nobody ought to object, provided she is. fit for the business; but there are not many ef that kind in this part of the country not enough to surprise and alarm the press or people and so we will not make any fuss about it. Ninety- nine out of a hundred had rather be mothers at home than speakers abroad, and always will I reckon. It is the maternal instinct that makes women the best teachers in our schools where the pupils are gen erally of tender years. Tender is the word. When a bov erets touch he should be taught by a man and he generally is, A tough rough boy has no business in. a woman's school. It is fit that a woman should teach and train the young children. Her kind manners and womanly sympa thy refines them and supplements their mothers training at home. Just as a little girl loves her doll, so does woman love a child anybody's child. Just as a little boy does not love a doll, so does not a man love other people's children. Thanks to hu man progress, women are now the educators of children on all this broad land. There is nothing in the calling that militates against their modesty or purity of thought, or seclusion from contact with the world, but how far beyond this a women can go and yet preserve her womanly modesty, her selfrespect, and the respect of the opposite sex, I do not know. We read that the warden of Sing Sing was interviewed the other day, and was asked what was the prime cause that brought the prisoners there. It seems that the law makes it his duty to obtain a short biography of every one, and he answered promptly: "The lack of parental control at home and moral training in the schools." And yet there are farthers who turn their boys loose at an early age, and if a conscientious teicher tries to restrain them it provokes a war and raises a rumpus all over the town. The old lnadmarks are better than the new ones in this regard. There are little sons of respectable parents who go by my house every day smoking cigaretts, and I have seen them beg them of a passing negro, and yet those parents would ent believe it if told, and perhaps would be very indignant if they were punished for it by the teacher. What man would give those boys a place in his , office, or his store, or his shop ? What man would trust them with his accounts ? It is hard upon a taxpayer who has no children to be compelled to help educate other people's children, and he is only reconciled and submits because it is best for the state that afl the children should be educated. there is a growing, increasing doubt upon this subiect, especially considering the tax that is upon us to educate the negro children and the little good and less thanks we get for it. There are many con servative thinkers who obiect to being taxed to educate the children of the wealthy, but who would sub mit cheerfully to a tax for the poor. Private schools are becoming more popular than public schools, because there is more heard of them and better associations, but 11 we must have public schools let the parents stand to the teachers and sustain them. They are the best watched people in the world, for besides the board 01 trustees every child is a detective and every mother a sentinel on the outsposts. It takes a smart man ar a gifted woman to please them all. Bill Arp Lrmoa Klixir. PLEASANT, ELEGANT, RELIABLE.

You Want to Know How to Make a Good Cure Here's One Way If Your Expe rience Differs You Better Stick to it, For Experience Is Always a Safe Guide. (SPECIAL COR. THE ADVANCE.) The first step in curing is called the "steaming or yellowing process." Medium tobacco will require from twenty-four to thirty hours steaming at about ninety degrees to yellow sufficiently ; but tobacco with more or less sap, larger or smaller, will re quire a longer or shorter time to yel low. Here the judgment of the curer must be his guide. Inexpe rienced planters would do well to procure the services of an expert curer, if they have tobacco suitable tor fine yellow. The planter saves in enhanced value of his crop many times the money paid to the curer, and besides, by close attention, he may learn in one season to cure well himself. Theory alone, however good, and directions, however minute will not do here, but it is practice that must qualify one to cure well. When it is remembered that no two plants are exactly alike, no two barns precisely similiar in every par ticular, and that the weather may change every hour, is it reasonable that a fixed programme can be fol lowed for every curing with any cer tain hope of success? The expe rienced know better. On work so variable, only general directions can be given. The planter here must use his head as well. The next is called "Fixing the color." When the tobacco is suffi ciently yellowed, best leaves 01 a uniform yellow, and the greener ones of a light pea-green color, it is time to advance the heat to one hundred degrees ; observing the leaves closely to detect sweating, which will soon redden and spoil the color, unless driven oft. To do this, open the door and let it stand open, and if an hour or more the sweat has not dis appeared, open a space between the logs on oppositite sides of the barn to let in more air, and permit it to re main open until the tobacco has dried off all apperance of the sweat. To dry oft the sweat speedily, sprinkle dry straw or hay over the floor and set fire thereto, using just enough straw to accomplish the desired re suit Right at this point more cur ings are spoiled than at any other stage of the process. It may be wel to remember what is a tact, that at least five curings are spoiled "by pro ceeding too fast to one failure from going too slow. Now stick a pin here But to go back to the barn, where we have just dried the leaf, and where the thermometer indicates a tail of five or ten degrees but this need not concern the curer to put him out of hope, for a little cooling under the circumstances was necessary we close up the opening and raise the heat to one hundred degrees. But a skillful curer detects the first indi cations of sweat, and prevents it by regulating the heat and ventilation Keep the heat at one hundred de grees lor four hours, and then advance two and a half degrees every two hours until one hundred and ten de grecs are reached. Here you have reached the most critical point in the difficult progress of curing bright to bacco. The condition and appear ance of the tobacco must now be the curer 's guide. No one can success fully cure tobacco until be can dis tinguish the efforts of too much or too little heat in the appearance of the leaf. Too litde heat, in fixing the color, operates to stain the "face side of the a dull brown color, and is called "sponging," and may be known to the novice by its appear ance only on the "face" side of the leaf. Too much heat reddens the leaf, first around the edge and then in spots, which are visible on both sides. Now, to prevent sponging on the one hand and spotting on the other, is the aim of the experienced curer. No definite time can be laid down to run from one hundred and ten to one hundred and twenty de grees. Sometimes four hours is ' suffice, then again eight hours is fast enough. While it is usual at this stage to advance about five degrees every two hours for medium tobacco, the condition of the tobacco otten in dicates to the practical eye the nec essity for slower or faster movement. But is safe not to advance above one hundred and ten degrees until the tails begin to curl up at the ends. Arrived at one hundred and twenty or one hundred and twenty -five de grees, this is the curing prcxr s. The heat should remain at or nrir these figures until the lrif is cured, which will require from six . to eight hours, according to the amount of sap in the leaf to be expelled. When the leaf appears to be cured, advance five de grees every hour up to one hundred and seventy degrees and remain until stalk and stem are thoroughly cured. To run above one hundred and eighty degrees is to endanger scorch ing the tobacco, and perhaps burning both barn and tobacco. To 'recapitulate First. Yellowing process, 90 de grees from 24 to 30 hours. Second. Fixing color, 100 de grees, 4 hours ; 100 to no, 2 de grees eveiy 2 hours; no to 1204 to 8 hours. Third. Curing the leaf, 120 to 125, 6. to 8 hours. Fourth. Curing stalk and stem 125 to 170, 5 degrees an hour. And continue at one hundred and seventy degrees until stalk and stem are thoroughly killed and dry, which usu requires irom 12 to 15 hours. TO CURE MAHOGANY COLOR Alter the tobacco has yellowed sufficiently on scaffolds or under flues and when the leaves have assumed a mottled piebald appearance, run the I heat to one hundred degrees and let I it remain at that point for three or.l tour hours, then raise the heat two and a hall degrees an hour until one! hundred and thirty is reached. Keep the heat at that point until the leaf is cured, and then move up gradually one hundred and sixty or onet hundred and seventy and thus cure 1 stalk .and stem. It cured properly I hereiwiH much of the leaf mahogany, I while5 the remainder will run from a I bright dapple to a cherry red.- -R. Lii Ragland. ?T2 - I Tumuteed Care tor L Orlppe.

A Glowing and Deserved Tribute to One of North Carolina's Mostll'atrlotic and Eminent Sons, ne Greensboro North btate in chronicling the completion of the Western North Carolina Railroad to Murphy, says: Un July 23rd last, the hrst train entered Murphy, in Cherokee county, over the Western North Carolina Railroad. Thus were Morehead - ty and Murphy united by rail. On that day Col. A. B. Andrews was 50 years of age. On his 50th birthday was completed the colossal task which he undertook ot constructing a railroad irom Okt fort across the Bhie Ridge to Asheville, and thence to Waynesville and over the Balsam Mountains and on to Cherokee coun ty along the banks of the Tuckas segee, the Lhde Tennessee, and the beautiful Nantahala. Does the read er stop to think of what a great and grand work has been accomplished Does the reader reflect on the won derful brain and energy which was necessary to push through such magnificent undertaking? Moun tains to be crossed, valleys to be tra versed ; rushing rivers and playful mountain streams to be bridged ; tunnel after tunnel to be cut through insurmountable elevations ; millions of money to be raised among strang ers in a financial centre at " times shaken by panic, made timid by dis aster or entirely closed by distrust North Carolina had a son who was capable and able to do all this. By his fruits you can judge him. Col A. B. Andrews undertook the task He resolved to do the one thing which had been the talk by day and the dream by night of North Caroli na statesmen for years. The man who had never seen the word "fail ure" among his personal effects, had the confidence of railroad magnates and money kings. Although during the many years of construction of the Western North Carslma Railroad the ups and downs were many, the work went on. And it came to be truthfully said that at one time when nearly all were discouraged, Col. An drews hazarded his private fortune rather than give up hope of com pleting the Western N. C. Railroad He did all this and had the nerve to back up his great judgment and , his great will-power with, his own money Fifteen years ago the mountain re gion of North Carolina was compara tively an unknown country. Ashe ville was a typical county town, un heard of beyond State lines. To day it is the finest jewel in the crown of the Old North State, and its praises are sung throughout the civilized world. The natural wealth of mines, water and wood, the salubrious cli mate, the great agricultural and hor ticultural possibilities of the Blue Ridge and bmokv mountain section all were enclosed in a sealed volume; to-day they are visible and open to the touch of the world. From Che rokee to Currituck is now a pleasant all rail highway. The same ' to Morehead City and Wilmington The man who accomplished this re suit should never be forgotten by the people of North Carolina. . Collect together all the politicians in the State over whom the people have fussed and fumed for twenty -five years past and the sum total of their labors in behalf of their constituei its would not make a shadow when com pared with the benefits of North Carolina and her people to derived from the construction of the W. N. C. R. R. by Col. Andrews North Carolina may well be proud of such a citizen. Col.

RiKht-Th hiking. Liber-al-Mtnded Men Who Belong to the Order Will gtand by their Principles -The Man Who no Believes Sees no Trouble Ahead, or Cause for Alarm. Tl 1 . i nere are some alarmists among the State Press who pretend to be lieve and fear that the North Caro lina Farmer's Alliance will join the Peoples on Third Party. To do so is to impugn the honesty and integ rity of the members of the Alliance in this State, as will be shown by the following succint article from the Sjfete, Chronicle: The Farmers' Alliance is not going to join the Third or People's party. Some few of its members may dp so under the wrong impression that sucn a course win right the wrongs ef which the order jusdy complains. But they will be few in number and, comparatively speaking, without in fluence. And they will soon discover their mistake and return to the Dem -ocratic party. In its succes alone is to be realized the condition of af fairs desired by ' the Alliance. We do not say this because Democrats have a monopoly of the wisdom and the virtue of the country. We do not doubt that the motives of some of the organizers of the Peoples Party are pure. But the Democratic party as now constituted lacks only a lew votes of winning success. Even if the principles 01 tne reopies party were as wise as the principles of the Dem ocratic party, it would still be un wise tor it to seek to draw votes from the Democracy, for then it would be insuring the success of the republican party, the common enemy to reform But by uniting the forces, the Demo cratic party can win a great victory and then will come just and wise legis lation. It is the only way it can be secured. "But," says some Allianceman, suppose tne Democratic party wins and its representatives prove recreant and do not enact the needed legisla tion, and what we are to dor That is a pertinent enquiry and gets at the root of the whole matter If the Democratic party is given full control of the government, which it HAS NOT HAD FOR A SINGLE DAY since I 86o,it will give all the relief to the people that can be given by legisla tion. But tl its representatives should prove recreant (they have never been recreant in the past as a party) then, and only then, would a patriotic man be justified in considering the question of withdrawing his allegiance to the Democratic party. If the Democratic party should violate its pledges, and prove rec reant to its principles, it ought to die and all good men ought to leave it. We love it and cherish with ar dent fondness its achievements and its principles which are eternal, buf if it should depart from its principles and become the tool of mnnnnolv. . . .. r- r. -"i 1" .t 111 1 1 (1 ill rc.,roTfi .11 1 1 -1 t n 1 1 1 1 . - irom it ana aavise all patriotic men to do likewise. But to even consider such a step when we remember that : 1. The Democratic party is not re sponsible for a single ill which the people justly complain ol and pro test against ; and 2. 1 he Democratic party at every stage protested against the national banking: act, the demonetization of silver, the protective tariff, and the grant by corrupt means of public land to railroad corporations. when we recall these two facts we see now unjust it is to the Demo j .... . cratic party to mention it in connec- with its corrupt opponent, and how unwise for any Democrat to con sider leaving; it just as it is upon the threshold of complete national suc cess. mr t t . we ao not neneve tnere is any disposition upon the part of the Al liance in North Carolina or the South to leave the Democratic party ; and we do not believe any considerable 1 n 1 un 1 numoer wui oe so unwise, wny ao, we say this ? We believe that many of them will be actuated to this course as much because of their love of the Alliance as by'their love of party.

In that declaration, item one rc .ds as follows : We therefore resolve t. lo LABOR for the educa tion OF THE AGRICULTURAL CLAS SES, IN THE SCIENCE OF GOVERN MENT, IN A STRICTLY NON-PARTISAN SPIRIT. If this declaration means anything, it means what it plainly says. To go into partisan politics would be to violate the letter of their Declaration of Principles, and to open the door of strife and division and confusion which would bring weakness and ruin.
