And all life tornis are still noises into calm havi passed. When rest and quiet eonies to last. What matters pood or ill? What matters love or hate? Calm hands are folded o'er a In-east, The weary head is pillowed in quiet sweet rest, And sorrow eonies too late! What matters wealth or fame? The narrow grave is all that earthean give. The deathless soul in other worlds shall live And men forget our name. What matters aught of earth? The passing pictures of a shadowed dream. The changingediliesof a turbid stream, Sure these are nothing worth. Why. then, despond, my friend? The one thou lovest has hut'foiuid at last Sweet peaee and calm and rest when toil is past. And death is not the end! How to (Jet Married. Why is matrimony such an inter- est ing topic? There has been more said upon it. perhaps, than ou any other since the world began, and everybody has a word of advice to ! offer upon the mooted nuestion. It is certainly a great art to get mar ried. In the first plaee you must select me one to marry that is. if you are a man. Should you be a woman tiie stern necessity is impos-4 ed of waiting until someone selects I you. It is to aid you in this gentle art of being selected by a worthy man that these reflections are in tended. Now it is not so easy to be select- i ed as some women suppose. In this j municipality of yours, the "City of j JJrotht rly Love" and "Sisterly Pre- i ponderance," your sex. according to j the police census, outnumbers the ! other by thousands. These figures j are undoubtedly correct, although, j perhaps, the gentle guardians 'of ; public safety may sometimes have I counted, the servant girls twice, once at the front door and again at ; the back gate: but this suggestion is : irrelevant, and the drawback must receive your serious attention. Again, man is a deep animal, he is a thinker. His eyes may sometimes S be attracted by a pretty face or ' vivacious manner and thereby cause I patronage to Mow toward the wait- ing ice cream magnate in summer or . ... TO me Keeper oi sleighs in snowy , weather: but these attributes will ; not always tempt him to marry. Re- nettror a moment. Does a man. when his courting days are sire a doll someone to er, de preside simply in the parlor or on festive occasions? The answer is emphati- cally in the negative. The right kind of a man wishes a woman who though she may never be called upon to do so. The reserve power should be on hand. Three rules ought to be observed in the process of winnimg man's affection. Your chances of matri mony are greatly enhanced if yon are 1. Xeat. 2. Amiable. S. Affectionate. Xeatness is a prime requisite and it applies in man y particulars. A soiled dress, teeth that show neglect and hair betokening lack of attention I are not at all agreeable to the aver- age masculine being. He notices these things. Be finds out if you bite your finger nails, only dress ' , , 4 . ' , -f well when he comes to sc.? you. can t look properly or don t look as attract- he to your brother as you appear to him. He is lucky if he discovers j these failings before marriage, but a j miserable mortal, worthy of un limited commiseration, if the dis- ; coverv is postponed until after the I honeymoon is over. ' In the second place, amiability is a very important faculty to possess. ; You can do more with a man'by be i ing amiable than by having an un ; bending will. XeVer lose your tem- per and he won't lose his. Suppose you are in an icecream saloon (freez- : ing thought) and a careless waiter ; h...."., to uiset the cooling delicacy upm your dress. Here is an opport unity. 'Tf your lovely eyes flash fire and cause the unfortunate wretch of a waiter to wish he was on board the fastest trolley car in existence, be ware or your companion, ne uoesu i IlKe it. v in llie ovuer iiaim. .snouiu you .suppress your annoyance, smile ; , .... ...,.,.?., ,i. , and apologue tor the el 1 illg attend- j -,nt. your chances of becoming some- ; body's wif are increased at least per cent.

TUTT'S PILLS agrecahle in taste. A HP'S It El' U LA It CHAT. The Aged Philosopher Thinks Every thing is Looking Lovely. The spring is fairly upon us. and it is really the birth of a new year. The sweet odor of violets is in the air and the alder tags are blooming in the grades. The robins are bob bing around and the setting hen comes clucking; from her nest. Fire is on the mountains, and the busy farmers are burning brush and cleaning up the fence rows or hauling guano to make the biggest crop of cotton the world ever saw. That is what they told me in North Carolina, and I reckon it is so all over the cotton belt. The poet says "Whatever is right," and so we will have to be reconciled and let the farmers do just as they please and take the consequences. In fact, it is risky and impertinent to advise a man about his business. But editors will do it. and I heard a farmer tell one not long ago that he could run a better newspaper if he would give it more attention and give the fanners less advice. Well, it stands to reas on that a man who has been farming all his life knows more about it than a town-raised editor who never farm ed a day. The farmers are in earnest now. Politics has settled down in the old ruts. The Ocala platform is dead and buried, and all the vain hopes that inspired it have vanished away. Just as the "forty acres and a mule" played out with the darkey, so have all the expectations of some big thing from the government played out with tne people s party. It was ! a delusion and a snare, and nobody j but a few politicians profited by it. j It is at least an admitted fact that i the fanners must depend on them- i selves and not on the government. ! Paternalism is the. curse of a State or nation, and I am glad to see that j Mr. Cleveland is going to put his ' foot down upou it. Protection for 1 protection's sake must go. We want ! no more infant industries. They i must start full grown and compete with the world. This pension out- rage must be reformed, for it grows bigger as the years roll on. It is the politician's hobby, and he rides on it ! into office. Over eight hundred I thousand are now on the rolls, ami not one-fourth of them ever saw a battlefield. It is nothing but pater I nalism. and it has gotten to be an j epidemic. Most evervlxvlv wants j some help from the government, and if they can't get it one way they will another. Our revolutionary fathers. who were wounded and disabled, drew pensions, but. m course ofjl.nd. time, they died and the pension stop ped, but now the pension keeps run ning on and spreading out to widows ; and children and grandchildren, and I most of them are to foreigners who j fought for the money that was in it and nothing else. Just go into the national cemetery, at Chattanooga, and see the names on the headstones. and you can't pronounce half of them . , A. , without a corkscrew. For the hon est patriotic soldier, we have the profoundest respect, but we rebels know something about the foreign hirelings we had to fight the last two years of the war. Paternalism is run mad one hun dred and eighty millions of pensions is more than the government can j stand. The nation has put Mr. Cleve-1 land there to reform, and we believe! he will do it. The salaries of the government officials are too large. Millions could be saved by a healthy reduction, and then there would not be so many office-seekers. How is it that our governor and our supreme court judges get only about half as much as a United States marshal or a clerk of a LTnited States district court? How is it that a little post- office like Cartersville pays 1.I'00. when there are ten men and twenty women who would take it for 1,0110? Let us get back to the economy of our fathers, and then the duties on the necessaries of life can be taken off. and the common people can get their shoes and blankets cheaper. Washington is called the father of his country, and now we want Mr. Cleveland to father the country some too. besides little Ruth, and take the burdens off the people. That is all the paternalism we ask for a clean and honest administration. Kill the j nlon1)oUt and the trusts. L,et I Hawaii alone and the Xicaragua ca- ! nal and everything else that calls for j more money and more taxes. Don't fret so much about the money or the scuffle between gold and silver, it is doing very well. I once was young and now I am old, but I haye never seen the time that there wasn't enough money in town to pay for everything the people had to sell. I fanned for eleven years, and my corn brought me 50 cents a bushel, for every crop. It isn't the kind of money, whether gold or silver or paper, that concerns us, but it is the solvency and honesty of the banks, for '.15 per cent of all the business is done by checks and deposits. There are enough dollars and dimes to do all the rest. Who ever sees a piece of ?old coin? Who ever looks at a national bank bill to see what bank issued it? They are all good, from Maine to California. In my opinion, the world has no better currency, and I dread to see the day when any man or set of men can issue their own bills and foist them upon the country we have tried that and suf fered. Let well enough alone. What old Georgia does not ret ail the fail ures of Georgia banks in the ante bellum days not only the wild-cat banks that were intended to fail, but good banks that failed through great financial revulsions? There were failures at Macon and Columbus and St. Marys and Home and Ringgold and Atlanta, and many of us have got relics hid away that we some times look at and lament. I know one man who has a package of $4.- 000 of Ringgold money that broke before the war. It is the common people who suffer from spurious money, the smart, shrewd, traders get rid of theirs before the collapse comes. J Now let us all go slow. Mr. Cleve land's election does not mean a bo nanza to anybody, but it does mean honesty of administration, if it is possible for him to control it. And 1 believe he will control it. Mr. Harrison wa honest enough but not broad enough. He wanted to jump on Chile with both feet, and nearly the last thing he did was to annex Hawaii on paper. Hut he was a pure man and did the best he could. Let us not idolize any man for we are all men and not gods. When Mr. Hayes died a friend of mine ex pressed surprise and said he thought he had died several years ago. but remembered now that it was Arthur. Blaine will soon be forgotten, for such is the nature of political fame. "What a troublous life they live! Think of Toombs and Stephens and Gordon and Colquitt and all their heart-burnings, and then turn away and say it is better to live calm and serene und r your own vine and fi' ' tree and take comfort with those voti j love and those who love you. There j is nothing in this life that will com- j pare with the love of wife and chil- j dren and the daily intercourse with good neighbors. May the good Lord give this blessing to us all and make us content. BiixArp. Picked up at Random. The time for receiving exhibits at the World's Fair expires April loth.
