SOME THOUGHTS ON BUSINESS.
Durhnrn Sun.
With'n the p: -!t week or so several
very large failures have taken place
good men, with a large business have
been pressed to rho Tail, V.e huve in
our mind's eye one ia Macon, ihat
occurred Monday, n dry goods lirm(
We are told that they had exception
al difficulty in making their collec
tions, although good judgment w9
very generally used in their credit
accounts. The old story.
This is the rock upon which many
honest, accommodating. firms strike.
Hard collections. Creditors press
on them and they are compelled to
yield to the inevitable.
This is hard. After a man haf
labored honestly; accommodated pat
rons when mooey was close with
tbem; and than have his bill- rejected
or indifferently considered by those
w'ohavo profited and been benefited
by bis efforts snu risks .t is haru
to see such a man become so involved
that he roust give up all and bear the
brunt of other people's carelessness,
nd ffrence and indisposition to pay
him.'-
This idea of business is all wrong
The masses of the people should re
form along this line as much so as
anv other. Of course there are times
when a purchaser's inability to pay is
too plain for argument. But men,
and women, too, should be cautieas
and not rush into debt without con
sidering pay day. It is morally
wrong to buy goods without a set,
determined effort to pay in a reason
able time. Short accounts make long
friends, and this should be borne in
mind by every one, and it will prevent
many a good man from going to the
wall.
The argument, however, is not all
on one side, mere are some people
v?ho ask for credit and get it who
have no idea of paying; regular com
mercial dead beats, liuraan vampires,
living on other people's profits and
sucking what life blood they can get
out of every line of buiiness walk
ing, talking incubuses toevery busi
ness man's growth and prosperity.
Then, too, there ar- business men
who are not discreet. For the sake
of trade they credit promiscuously.
Risk all sorts of demands for credit,
and when they strike the class allud
ed to-above tuey eimply give away
their good 8 and profits, with a big
bundle of bills uud trouble attached
in having a collector to wear out those
bills in tramping around and getting
nothing but worry and walking.
Business ia business. Every man
should have a lue regard for the man
he deals with in order that confidence
and cash may b reciprocal. This is
the life of the commercial world.
It is a good mstto to pay as you
go, and when yeu can't pay don't go
to far. i

PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY
When we sny that a an ff-urul we
generally mean that ln-i.;r es with us.
When a man ia so Outl vx an, thin;.
in particular his friends flitter hi-.
yaaity by caliii:.'; him "versatile."' '
Some of us reserve our hyt smile for !
select occasions, as though wearing it j
upon all occasions would not improve
it.
The sol: made man holds that hi
parents were minnows aud that he is j
whale. !
There is one lucky thins about j
spoiled children-- we never have tbem j
in our own famil.
A widow its one who has buried he.
husWaud:a grans widow is one who j
has simply misiaid him.
Matrimony is a high ea for which
no CGmpass has yet breu invented
A shadow is always darker and
larger than the figure that make if
A man's hates and his dislikes .! ways
determine his true character. A oan
affinities determine what he is and
who he 13.

THE SOUTH WILL BE PROSPEROUS
There is not a shadow of doubt in my
mind that the South will be more
prosperous under the coming admin
istration than it ever was before. The
South and the North knows each other
better, and the era of distrust will be
wiped away. Cleveland's administra
tion will bring raw re prosperous times
to the South, for then she will have
nothing to fear from hasty and unwise
idlation. The era of force bill
legislation has passed away, and the
country is in a better fix than it ever
was before, so far as a brotherly-
feeling is concerned' Adlai E. Ste
venson at Atlanta.
