April, 1888, Edenton, N. C. A MAN WITH AN AIM. Give me a man with an aim. Whatever that aim may be, Whether it's wealth or whether it's fame It matters not to me. Let him walk in the path of right, And keep his aim in sight; And work and pray with faith away With his eye on the glittering height. Give me a man who says; I will do something well, And make the fleeting days A story of labor tell. Though the aim he has be small, It is better than none at all; With something to do the whole year through He will not tumble and fall. But Satan weaves a snare For the feet of those who stray, With never a thought or care Where the path may lead away. The man who hath no aim, Not only leaves no name When this life's done, but ten to one He leaves a record of shame. . , , frivmfia man whose hpart n , ... , - ..n whntci, n,orHr,tho t - 71 sTu " I" tTJ b The hands with labor tire ue nanas witn laoor tire, Than to glide with the stream m an le And live a purposeless life. Tarboro Southerner. FOOD F0RTH0UGHT. PLAIN WORDS FOR PAR ENTS AND DAUGHTERS. the PRACTICAL EDUCATION GIRLS NECESSARY. OF Bellefontaine Examiner. No home is so bright as that which shelters a pretty, sparkling girl Yet . when the daughter is brought up in totai ignorance of domestic duties. ? . t There is one erevious mistake that mothers are prone to make that of encouraging their daughters in idle fancies. To educate their daughters in music and art is paramount in their ambition. One girl in a thousand will make a passably fair musician, and one in the same number may make an artist. Mothers are apt to bear the burden of home responsibil ities, and make any sacrifice to pro mote the interest of their daughters. Every home is made more cheerful by its music. Every home is proud of its artistic display and talent. But """ lo " A1W " " mother, towards the evening of her life does the household drudgery to r i i iuruier me accompiibuuieiibs ui luc th dau h innine cases out of ten regards it in the light of a mother's & uu, ji uiumcis wuum umjf wmc w thrW qtkspq nnpn thpir pvps and see the perilous consequences ol this mis take, what a different course they would pursue ! Don't encourage whims and idle fancies. Sweep the foolish air castles from your homes as you do the cob webs. If your daughter contracts the craze for manipulating the paint-brush, dis courage her even though you have to place her in a female reformatory to gain the point, unless you have posi tlve pr0ol that sne is tne "one m a thousand." If she should eret into her little head to "hammer brass," provide her with the necessary implements and turn her loose on a stone pile. The hammering will avail just as much in the end. If she should insist on acquiring a musical education, there are several points to be taken into consideration before you consent. If you have lived with her long enough to find out that there isn't a particle of music in her composition, sit down on her musical aspirations instanter and spend the fortune in a more profitable way. She may also pine for vice culture. Think well and intelligently ; before you agree to humor her. Remember your husband h in busi ness and depends on the puplic for a livelihood. On the other hmd you have not heeded our warning1 words. As an accomplished society lady your fair daughter has graduated. She paint gorgeouslv; plays the piano exquis itely; sings like a nightingale; ham mers brass to perfect on, and is just too lovely for anything in a thoubaud other accomplishments. She fails in love and marries. Where are all her accomplishments iPied an(l engrossed with political con now? They have gone glimmering ! tests or wilh affair3 r State. 1Ie into the misiy bevond. She doesn't cat e for them now. She is wedded to something e'se. A little whil e ago limbic .nJ art occupied her thoughts. Sentimental and trash v novels found their way io her a fast as ttiey were issued from the publishing houses. Now nl ? interest is centered on her lord and master! They are happy so hupp j- for a time. The husband is a man in only moderate circums ances. When he married he was in love, and reason was a stranger to him. He is now recovering, and seriously views the situation from a practical and sensi b'e stand oo.nt. iiut t o late. The v fe, too, realize.- the mis ake, but not more keenly than does the mother. The reaJiz'.tion that the wife has been educated in the wrong channel is bitter and torturous. Economy is foreign to the young wife; practical domestic duty has been overlooked, and she finds herself incapable of performing the simplest and most essential household duties. She is as a child a plaything, and her husband finds himself incapable of supporting such a luxuiy. They can't climb tae ladder of success togetner. It is too much one sided. II becomes disheartened loses patience and hopefulness, and at last happine?s and contentment go out of their home hand in hand, and anxiety and remorse are substituted. Home then is no longer ' home" for happi ness is not there. Love .may still linger within its walls, but there are other things as essential as love is to happiness, that are not there.

Baltimore Sun. In his '-Twenty Years in Congress" ex-Senator Jame G. Blaine wrote of ex-Senator Allen G. Thurrnan as fol lows : "His rank in the Senate was established from the day he took his seai, anu was never lowered during the period of his services.

Asheville Citizen : The tobacco season in this city will close about July 1st. It is safe to assert that more of the "weed" has been sold on this market during the past season than ever heretofore, and prices all through have been considerably higher.
