The Smile of a ( liild. 1 Ihti! is nothing more pure in heaven, And nothing on earth more mild, More full of the light that is all divine Than the smile of a little child. The sinless lips, half parted With breath as sweet as the air, And the light that seems so glad to shine In the gold of the sunny hair. 0 little one, smile and bless me. For somehow I know not why 1 feel in my soul when children smile That angels are parsing by. I feel that the gates of heaven Are nearer than I knew, That the light and the hope of that sweeter world. Like the dawn, are breaking through. Cheerful Obedience. If the yountr man begiuninr his career as an employe could start with the experience of his employer, he would aim to give cheerful and un questioning obedience to orders as the surest means of making himself helpful and attracting attention to his usefulness. The men to whom an order can be given with an as surance that it will be faithfully and intelligently executed are very rare, except, perhaps, in the naval aud military service, where absolute obe dience to orders is exacted. In civil life much latitude is allowed, to the injury of the service. The servant (using the term in the broad sense as meaning any one under orders), if he be a civilian, scarcely ever moves to obey without asking some questions: Why do you want this done? Cannot some one else do it? These and similar questions beset the employer who directs something to be done, or if the inquisitive spirit has been suppressed, the order is sullenly obeyed more as a matter of form than with the purpose to ac complish the end to which it is directed. This is the standing grievance of the employer of labor. He welcomes the cheerful employe who tries to carr' out his wishes or even to an ticipate them, and it is this employe who is selected for advancement when the opportunity comes for pro motion. The grumbler who, instead of attending to the work in hand, concerns himself about a fair division of labor; who wants to know why some task cannot be assigned to a fellow-workman or questions whether it is worth while to do the thing that has been ordered, does not favorably impress the busy man of affairs, who has little time to explain to his agents the purpose he may have in view. Tho young man just entering business life will know and under stand this some years hence, when he is either in the position of an em ployer of labor or has failed in life and finds himself a scarcely tolerated workman because of his peevishness and inability to promptly respond to the orders he receives. But he ought to know it now or accept the advice of those who have learned the lesson by experience. Civil administration of affairs dif fers from military rule; it is neces sary, perhaps, that there should be thi? difference in order to permit in dividual development, and yet the civilian who has had military training in the matter of obedience to orders is more useful in civil life than one who is not amenable to discipline. The man who can be trusted; who works as earnestly during his em ployer's absence as when he is under surveillance; who can be given an order and be left without supervision to carry it out, is the man who is almost insensibly admitted to greater and greater responsibilities and drifts naturally into positions of command and into confidential relations. The civil-service examinations to which go ve r n in e n t e m pi o j es a re s u b jec ted are clumsy but necessary imitations of the examinations to which em ployes in private life are almost con stantly subjected. In the store, or ollice, or factory there are no stated periods at which an examination for promotion is held; there are no K't questions to be asked and answered, but the employer or some one in authority is constantly examining those who help him, that he may learn their capabilities and determine which among them are fitted for higher place. The young j man should keep this in mind, and j l. r.l,,.l.l t, fit lumcolf f.n- i.mn. man d by learning to obey. He should also cultivate the habit of attending strictly to his own duties, resisting the temptation to attend to the divis ion of work between himself and his fellow-clerks, or to inquire into the reason for the orders that may be given to him. Iy following this rule he will attract attention to himself as a cheerful employe who can be I trusted, and he will surely reap the ! benefit of the experience of ages, during all of which time the man who ha been faithful over a few things has been the one chosen to he lord over manv things. nu-n! r it not only a pleasure but a 1 1 ut v 1 e to mv neighbors to tell about t oihlerful cin e ell'ecled in my case ! v t lie 1 i uiel v use of ( "hamberlaitf .s ( 'olie, C'liolera ami Diarrhoea Remedy. 1 was taken verv badlv with llu and pro ,'invd a bottle of" this remedy.

I am not happy. Some months ago I wrote to our j-ankee friends that if they were gentlemen they would apologize for all they done to us during that devilish war and after. I never received but one letter on that line and that was from a native born federal soldier who said he was friendly and that if I would write out an apology and send it to him he would sign it. He seemed to be prop erly repentant. And now comes this editor of The New York Herald down here to investigate our lynch ing business and to philosophize upon it, and he says the north made a mistake in giving the negro the right of suffrage, but he doesent apologize. He was one of the prime leaders in the whole business and speaks of it as a mistake. It was malicious ignorance, and why doesn't he say so? It has taken him and his folks , thirty years to find out they knew but little about us and nothing about the negro. Senator Ingalls has got more sense aud more candor. He came down to Texas ten years ago to investigate and went home and wrote a letter in which he said the negro was not fit for the ballot and that the north had made an egregious blunder in giving it to him. He dident apologize, but he came pretty near it. Now, a mistake doesent involve any moral turpitude, but a malicious blunder does. The time has passed for any more truckling. The stage of desperation is upon the south and political humility to the north has passed. We have never felt that humility, but our politicians have preached it and tried to get some thing from the public crib by pre tending we were humble when we were not. The truth is that the north is re sponsible for every outrage and every lynching at the south. Here is The Atlanta Age, a negro paper that is published by W. A. Pledger, that copies every venemous article from the New York papers about the Sam Hose business, and Pledger writes to The New York Sun that he is shocked at Governor Candler's ut terances and he says the. good negroes at the south are opposed to these outrages on our women. The paper is pregnant with comment on the lynching. I reckon that is all right, for the liberty of the press must not be restricted. But never theless these utterances from Pledg er's paper go through the educated negro element and settle its convic tions and thereby comes some more outrages and some more lynchings. New York njggers come out in their papers and advise the shotgun and the torch in retaliation, and those things are copied in the nigger papers at the south. Hut here is the comfort : Uncle Sam is still helping me in my garden and doesent know and doesent care anything about all this bnsiness. He says he was born a slave and for thirty years has been a freeman and has always found that if a colored man done his duty the white man done his. Uncle Sam has a large family and through these republican influences they have been corrupted and demoralized and he has a lot of grandchildren who don't know their own father and the old man is grieved. 1 was ruminating about all this and how these negroes have all been fooled about Grant and Lincoln be ing their friends and were fighting to free them, when there is not a word of truth in it. Neither of them care a continental dime for the negro and both of them were more con cerned about their own successes than anything else. I Jut I have had great regard for Lincoln. He was a much better man than his party and his death was a calamity to the south. I have recently received a little vol ume entitled "The Genesis of Abra ham Lincoln." It is carefully and affectionately written by James II. Cathey, of western North Carolina, and its unprejudiced perusal will convince any man that Abraham Lincoln was the son of Abraham Knloe, and that Nancy Hanks was a good orphan girl who served in Knloe 's family. T're affidavits and other evidences establish this beyond dispute. Old father Abraham Knloe was a second Abraham and poor Nancy Hanks a second Hagar and for the same reason she was sent away from the paternal homestead to keep peace in the family. The father of her child had great regard for her and placed her with his rela tives in Kentucky, where she after- : wards married Thomas Lincoln. Some of the witnesses to (hese facts arc now ninety years old and have i passed all desire to deceive anybody. ; The descendants of this Knloe family are numerous and their testimony has been taken from North Carolina, Missouri and Texas, and all confirm the story. All the very old people in western North Carolina were fa miliar with the girl Nancy Hanks and the Knloe family and old man Knloe's acknowledgment of thechild's paternity and why he sent this mod- ern Hagar and her lahuaael away. But this is no new thing. Dur'iDg the war it was talked of in the army and tincoln was denounced by the entire Todd family, into which he married. Fifteen years ago, while I sojourned in western North Carolina, I found the story current that Lin coln was the son of Abraham Enloe and was named for him by his mother, Nancy Hauks. Now Mr. Cathey writes a pretty little book about it and his excuse is that the truth can not hurt the living or the dead; that Abraham Lincoln was America's most remarkable man, and there should be no attempt to cloud the life of a real hero. Cicero says that the first law of history is that it should neither care to say anything that is false nor fear to say anything that is true. It is therefore, the sole purpose of. this little book to prove that this wonderful man was not without an cestors. His mother was Nancy Hanks. If he was the son of a worthy sire the world is entitled to know who that sire was, whence he came and what his characteristics. The custodians of this history of Abraham Lincoln are numbered by scores and hundreds of the first peo ple men and women of western North Carolina, for the Enloes were a large and influential family and their descendants have intermarried with many distinguished people. But I do not propose to review the book. It is an interesting and remarkable revelation, and is written by an en thusiastic admirer of Mr. Lincoln, and establishes beyond question his paternity. Abraham Enloe was him self an extraordinary man the father of thirteen children; and his photographic likeness to this partic ular son is very striking, both in form and feature. Both were the same height and had the same long, unshapely limbs. This little book of 175 pages was written by James H. Cathey, of Bryson City, N. C, and is kind in motive and classic in style. I thought when I first opened it it had better not have been written, but on its perusal I believe that it is better for the whole truth to be told than that this remarkable man's genesis should continue to be uncertain and un known. I am now trying to solve another problem; the problem of how to de stroy the potato bug or beetle. Last year I tried paris green and was not satisfied. I am now knocking them off morning and evening and hoeing the ground around the plants, and think that I have whipped the fight. This will do for the garden, but not for the field. Professor Starnes will tel: us a better way, I hope, for he is a scientific genius and the most enthusiastic experimenter I have ever met. Last week I visited the experiment station at Athens, of which he has charge, and was de lighted with the progress he has made on the University farm. He is absorbed in his work and I am sure he will make it a great success. "How is it," said I to him, "'that you can be so enthusiastic over some thing that you do not own and never will ?"' He smiled and said : "Six years' work in this business at Griffin and here has created with in me an absorbing love for it and I feel like this little farm and garden and orchard were all mine. My am bition is not only to make it a suc cess practically, but to benefit the people by improved method and by remedies for the failures and disas ters that are incident to the profes sion." He has now ten pupils under him and expects to have half a hundred in August. 1 hope the State will encourage him in this good work, for like Smithson, his desire is to disseminate knowledge among men. Bill A up. UeUcctions of a Bachelor. The more trust a good woman puts in a man the more she will generally find in him to trust. Lots of men would be considered braver if they didn't have sense enough to get scared. It is a good thing for a man to be dissatisfied with himself in every thing but his marriage. Women are better than men are. Men very seldom love their enemies, but women 'most always kiss them. If the women get to working in Christian Science on love affairs there won't be any hope for the men. You can always tell from the out side of a house which is the spare bedroom by the way the window curtains are fixed up. A woman has to have a lot more patience to let the cat iu and out than he has for her husband, because if she didn't it would leave her. The ancients Ixdieved that rheuma tism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who lias had an attack of sciatic or inllaminatory rheumatism w ill agree that the inlliction is demoniac enough to warrant the belief. It lias never been claimed that C'ham!crlain's l'ain Halm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to t be truth of this state ment. One application relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its costs. For sale by M. E. Robinson & Bro., J. II.

If the scheme of the Reed chairmen of the most important committees of the last House to keep their places under the new organization of the House is a success, the next Speaker will find that he is merely at the head of the old Reed legislative ma chine. The argument put forth by these schemers is little short of ridiculous. If accepted, it would mean that every man at the head of an important committee had a right to stay there as long as he could get elected and his party could control the House. Such a plan would be unjust to the Speaker, who would be little more that a figurehead, if he could not control the make up of the committees, and equally unjust to the members who wish, to better their committee positions. The Reed machine says that all the old chair men who were reelected should be given the same places, and points to fourteen vacant chairmanships, ow ing to retirement of the old chairmen, as the only ones that the new Speak er should put new men into; also that none of the members of impor tant committees should be displaced. That would give the new Speaker fourteen chairmanships, only four of which are important Accounts, Banking and Currency, Coinage and Printing to distribute among his supporters, and 57 vacancies to fill on eighteen of the important com mittees. It is said that these hold overs intend to form a combine to prevent the election of any candidate who will not agree to their plans. Representative De Vries, who will have the honor of being the only democrat from California in the next House, is in Washington. He says the Governor is going to appoint Burns to the Senate, with the under standing that he is to be seated at the same time Quay gets in, and that the appointment will give the State to the democrats. Representative Gaines, of Tennes see, is in Washington on business. Speaking of the political outlook he said: "The democrats have only to stand firm, renominate Bryan, make some additions to the Chicago plat form, and they will sweep the coun tr3' in 1900. Bryan's renomination is assured, for he is just as much admired in the strongholds of the party as he was in 1890. The next platform will declare for free silver, but will also declare against expan sion, militarism and the trusts, which threaten the destruction of the na tion. What makes the prospects all the brighter for the democracy is the torn and divided state of the republicans. When Congress meets and the majority tries to enact iron clad gold-standard legislation, it will find out the true sentiment of the country on the financial question." Representative Henderson's can didacy for the Speakership may be hurt more than helped by the work that is being done in his behalf by the old soldier organizations, which are asking votes for him on the ground that he will organize the committees of the House so as to in sure more liberal pension legislation. It would seem to an unprejudiced observer that the country has already gone to the extreme limit in the mat ter of pension liberality, and the election of a Speaker who would favor going further in that direction would be regarded as anything else than a blessing outside of those who would receive the money or be direct ly benefitted by a further increase in the already enormous pension pay ments annually made by this gov ernment. Kentucky republicans were per fectly willing to have the gold demo crats vote with them to carry that State, but they are not willing to have the gold democrats rewarded with Federal offices, and they have, through Senator Deboe, filed a vigor ous protest witli the administration against Senator Lindsay, of Ken tucky, being allowed to name six out of the thirteen Census Supervisors the State is entitled to. Mr, McKin- ley has lost no opportunity to show his gratitude to the men without whose votes he would have been de feated, and the chances are; that the original idea will be carried out, re gardless of the protest. The alacrity with which three of the big-headed young office-holders Assistant Secretary Vanderlip, of the Treasury; Assistant Secretary Allen, of the Navy Department, and Assistant Postmaster General Perry Heath appointed themselves a Na tional committee to receive; contri butions that are being made all over the country to buy a home in Wash ington for Admiral Dewey was a little bit astonishing even tc the old timers who are accustomed to the freshness of the office-holders of the Ass. brand. However, as their self made credentials seem to have been accepted by the countr-, the matter is only mentioned to show how easy it is for a man of gall to push him self along after he gets a little start. They were wise enough to elect Mr. Roberts, Treasurer of the United States, treasurer of the committee. Indications are that more than the price of the most expensive residence iu Washington will be contributed. ALL OVER THE STATE. A Summary of Current Events for the Fast Seven Days.
