Geddes. The Man Who is in Love. Never go down on your knqes to declare your love; you will spoil trou sers and feel very uncomfortable. Rather give the lady an opportunity of denying that you -were on your knees before her, for the simple rea son that she was sitting on them. Never place your hand near your lady's waistband or around her neck. Place it about the middle of her back, there are no pins there. If she asks you to fasten her brace let never fail to apply a kiss on her arm. Ninety-nine times out of a hun dred that is what she wants, ind why she does not secure her bracelet with a little chain. Never call on your lady love while you have a cold in your head. If you begin your declaration you will never be able to resume it after a fit of sneezing. A cold in the head inspires pity neither in the heart of man nor in that of woman, and sneezing is fatal if the lady posesses the slightest particle of humor. Remember that with a cold in your head you will have to say to her: "I lob you, my darling. Oh, I hab such a cold id be dose!" No romantic love, dear fellow could survive that. I know a mac who once eloped with a married woman. They were deeply in love with each other. When they arrived at their destination they went to the hotel where they had en gaged rooms. It was a bitterly cold da', and they had forgotten to give orders for fires. The rooms were dull and chilly. They fell in each other's arms. "At last, my darling," he exclaimed, "at last, my own beloved one!" He could say no more. He was seized with a fit of violent sneezing. The misled lady came at once to her senses. In no time the trunks were sent back to the station, and that same evening she had re turned safe and sound under the con jugal roof. The "saving grace" of humor has done still more for wo men than for men, who owe so much to it. The woman who has a keen sense of humor is a terrible one to make love to. The romantic one will find charms in all your shortcomings, but the other is inexorable. She is constantly on the,.lookout for some thing to laugh at, nothing will escape her. And you know that, if you laugh, love-making is out of the ques tion. I know a woman who was radically cured of her ardent love for a man because he had, near the tip of his nose, a tiny little wart, which turn ed alternately white and red while he got passionately engaged in tell ing her the intensity and sincerity of his love. If you are bald, never make love to woman taller than 3rou. Looked at from below you are all right. Never let your lady love see you without a collar on, not even the very wife of your bosom. Never let her see you asleep. Maybe you sleep with your mouth open. If you are married let your wife sleep first. When you are quite sure she is off, let yourself go and be careful to wake up first in the morning. A man's head without a collar is like a bouquet without a holder. Never tell your lady love that you are very steady in your affections, and that every time you love a wo man it is forever. If you think she will enjoy the joke you overrate her sense of humor." If your wife or sweetheart is in love with you to such a degree that she tells you she will never survive you if you happened to die, reassure her and tell her that there is a way out of the difficulty her setting out fi rst. Don't let your wife see you shave. Your idiotic, cowed look, your gap ing mouth and. grimaces are as many infallible remedies for love. . Never indulge in any little objec tionable trick before the woman you love. Great affections should never be trifled with. MaxO'Rell. A tiood Cough Medicine for Children. "I have no hesitancy in recommend ing Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, says F. P. Moran. a well known and popular baker, of Petersburg, Va. "We nave given it to our children when troubled with bad coughs, also whoop ing cough, and it has always given per fect satisfaction. It was recommended tome by a druggist as the best cough medicine for children as it contained no opium or other harmful drug." Sold by M. E. Robinson & Bro., J. F. Miller s Drug Store, Goldsboro; J. R- Smith, Mt. Olive. SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN WOMEN. Arp Says the Latter Will Not Compare Favorably With the Former. I had a pleasant call to Florida, and have just returned. The rail roads make it so easy for you now that even a veteran can travel if he has the money. I left home one morning after breakfast, and was in Jacksonville that night to supper with my boy and his family, 415 miles in thirteen hours, and traveled over parts of four roads. It was a daylight trip and I had opportunity to notice the changes that latitude makes in vegetation. This new route to Florida is a star line from Atlanta and the west. It includes the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Lonis, the Western and Atlantic, the Central to Macon, the Georgia and Florida Southern to Valdosta and the Atlantic, Valdosta and Wes tern to Jacksonville, the prettiest, cleanest and best regulated city in the south. All of them first-class roads, with parlor cars and dining cars and sleepers that run all the way through. They don't even tar ry at Jacksonville, but keep on and on to the jumping off place, if you wish to go there. That new road between Jacksonville and Valdosta has made this speed and comfort possible, for it has done away with the elbows at Tifton and Waycross. The great Plant system has no el bows after you get on it, but it is a long ways from Atlanta and the west. The new road was just what our people wanted. H is first-class in all respects, and makes its 110 miles in less than three hours. I like these straight Florida railroads; they don't reel you about like our roads among the mountains, and they just glide along like a snake in the grass. These mountain roads swing an old man around the curves and strain his groin and loins and diaphragm and epigram and make him sore and stiff for two or three days after he gets home. I can hardly navigate now, and yet my wife wants me to plant some lettuce and beans and okra and work among the roses right away. Be sides all this, the cook has quit, an3 I have got to get up by sunrise and fire up the stove and put on the cof fee and hominy and then call her to get up and cook the rest of the breakfast. I used to make the bis cuits, but I have struck on that; I don't believe that a man's rough old horny hands were intended to mix up flour and milk and lard in bis cuit dough. My old friends Judge Hillyer and Judge Underwood were once, walking along a side street in New York and as they passed a ba kery they saw the bakers through the blinds, and they were treading dough in the long troughs with their feet. Judge Hillyer said : "Do you reckon their feet are clean?" "Well, yes," said Underwood, "I reckon they are by this time; they have been treading a good while. " But I don't care a cent about the cook quitting, I believe in self-maintenance I be lieve that every household should be raised to do their own work when it is necessary and I am proud to say that my wife and my children have never begged a cook to stay against her will. Honors are easy; let her go and rest if she wants to. The fact is, it suits me pretty well, for the cooking is better and the things are cleaner and it saves money we get along on less victuals and can dine out with our children every day or two. We can use baker's bread and make toast and bake Irish pota toes and fry eggs and get along fine without a cook. But I was talking about Florida Florida that Ponce de 'Leon found fifty years before the Pilgrims found Plymouth or John Smith found Jamestown. Fair Florida the El dorado of this continent. It has been hidden for all these years, but has been found. I never saw the like bf northern tourists, the hotels at Jacksonville are overrun, it takes several columns in their papers to give their names. These tourists are all rich, and spend their money free .ly. The men are fairly good-looking, but the women look tired and pre maturely old. Northern women will not compare with southern women for beauty and refinement of man ners. I have known this for fifty years. They have to work too hard ; poor things, I am sorry for them. They have got nothing but money. I walked round the St. James and Windsor and never saw, a beautiful woman; they are masculine and coarse, and not an angel among them. New England -or New York jor any of those coldicy states won't produce fairies-or sylphs or angelic creatures. You have to come as far south as Philadelphia and. Baltimore to find a beautiful woman, and they are scarce even there. You don't find them in plenty until you get do wb to Charles ton and Savannah. Down here where I live they are nearly all good-looking and graceful and, as David Ha rum said, are Coupled well and stand up square on their pasture joints and step like a deer. This is their good fortune, not only from heredity and climate, but because oifr mea are chivalric to their wives and daugh ters and do not work them so hard A recent number of a New York pa per say9 our long-haired philanthro pists are fearfully in earnest about the southern negroes, but you never heard of them regulating the toil of a woman clerk in. a retail store. She rises at 5 o'clock every morning, cooks her own" breakfast and spends a nickel for car fare; she attends to all receipts and shipments, she keeps the books and balances the cash; she is not allowed one second for lunche on, and never eats in the middle f the day. She does not go home till after 7 and on Saturday nights till after 12 o'clock. Her salary is $7 a week. She is bright and interesting, and of good family. For her $7 a week she labors never less than nine ty and often one hundred hours, and this is about 8 cents an hour. Thpr is no hope for this girl except in mat rimony, and the right man will not find her. And yet these northern philanthropists will skip over them all and, like Ogden & Co., make a tour down south to see how the ne gro is getting on the best content ed race upon the earth. From Jacksonville I dropped down to High Spriugs, where the good ladies of the New Century Club were calling me. I had a delightful time an ovation of young maids and ma trons and old veterans whose gray hairs and care-worn faces reminded me of the passing years and the pass ing of the old soldiers of the con federacy. These veterans will soon all be gone, for "Time cuts down all. Roth great and small. Except a pensioned soldier; They do not die, Rut multiply As fast as they grow older." We have but 70,000 left now, all told; but they have nearly a million up north on the pension rolls. High Springs is on a boom of im provement. The plant system has its largest hospital there, and its most extensive shops except those in Savannah. Everybody is busy and everybody seems contented and happy. I was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Gracy, whose beautiful home and lovely little children made me feel at home. Wherever I find little children I have no fear, and I do as I please, and eat with my knife and drink coffee out of my saucer if I want to. The good-looking mayor was selected to introduce me to the audience, but not being used to such performances, forgot his little speech, and began with "Now I lay me down to sleep," and so they had to get the preacher to take his place. I shall not soon forget the kindness of those good people of High Springs, and especially the cordial greeting I re ceived from the twenty-one ladies of the New Century Club. The scrip tures tell us that the time will come when seven women shall lay hold of one man, but I was captured by three times seven and maintained myself well considering my antiquity. . Bill Ari. A Sweet .Minded Woman. So great is the influence of a sweet- minded woman on those around her that it is almost boundless. It is to her that friends come in seasons of sorrow and sickness for help and comfort; one soothing touch of her kindly hands works wonders in the feverish child: a few words from her lips in the ear oT a sorrow stricken sister do much to raise the load of grief that is bowing its victim down to the dust in anguish. The husband comes home worn out with the pres sure of business and feeling irritable with the world in general, but when he enters the cozy sitting room and sees the blaze of fire and meets his wife's smiling face, he succumbs in a moment to the soothing influences which act as the balm of Gilead to his wounded spirits that are wearied with the stern realities of life. The rough" school boy flys into a rage from the taunts of companions to find solace in his mother's smile; the little one, full of grief with her large trouble finds a haven of rest on its mother's breast; and so one might go on with instance after instance of the influence that a sweet-minded woman has in the social life with which she is connected. Beauty is an insignificant power when com pared with hers. Two Reflections of a Bachelor. A woman is always disappointed unless she getsraore attention from her husband than she expected. The woman that insists on clean ing up her husband's writing desk would probably go home toher moth er if he took to pottering around the kitchen. - Remarkable Cares of Rheumatism.

Mrs. Lizzie Naramore, while in a fit of insanity this afternoon, killed her six children at her home, a farm house, half a mile from this village, and then tried to take her own life. The children ranged from 10 years to a babe of 10 months, and their lives were taken by the mother with an axe and a club. She laid the blood drenched bodies on the beds, two on one bed and the other four on a bed in another room and then attempted to take her own life by cutting her throat with a razor. When discov ered she was in bed on which the bodies of the four children were ly ing. Although she cut a deep gash in her throat and suffered the loss of much blood, it is believed she ma' recover. Frank Naramore, the husband and father, left his home at the usual hour to-day to go to his work at a saw mill and at that time his wife did not attract his attention by act ing strangely. It is 'supposed the crime was committed shortly after noon, the discovery' being made by George Thrasher, an employe of a grocery store, who visited the Nara more house about 2:43 o'clock for the purpose of delivering groceries that had previously been ordered by Mrs. Naramore. He was unable to get in the house by the door and he looked in a window and noticed blood onihe floor, while Mrs. Naramore was lying on a bed. He was surprised, also, in the absence of the children whom he was accustomed to see playing in or about the house. He returned to this village and told of what he had seen. A party was made up and a hasty visit was made to the Naramore house, and the mutilated bodies of six children in two beds were found. Mrs. Naramore was alive, but was very weak from loss of blood. Mrs. Naramore was removed to the village hotel. During the evening a number of neighbors of the family saw and talk ed with Mrs. Naramore and to them she told how she killed her six chil dren. At the time the party of vil lagers found Mrs. Naramore she was asked how she did the deed, and she said that she took the lives in four different rooms, and as fast as she killed one child the body was placed in a bed. The children were three boys and three girls Ethel, 10" years of age, the oldest, while the ages of Walter, Charles, Chester, Bessie and Lena ranged from 8 years to 10 months, Lena being the baby. Mrs. Naramore told her most inti mate friends to-night that she first killed Ethel, and then followed with the five others, each time taking the next oldest. Five were killed by be ing struck on the head with the back of an axe, while little Lena was killed with a club. She says she fully ex pected the gash in her throat would cause her death and .that when her husband returned at night he would find all of the bodies in the two beds. She appeared rational this evening and displaj-ed signs of sorrow for the deed she 'had committed, although she is unable to give any reason for killing the children. When Mr. Naramore reached the house he was prostrated with grief by the loss of his family. Each of the children had evidently received several blows as their heads were ter ribly bruised and blood was scattered in all parts of the room. Mrs. Nara more had evidently made prepara tions for the deed, as the doors were all locked and barred with sticks of wood. At about 9 o'clock to-night Mrs. Naramore experienced a change for the worse and it is believed she will not live through the night- Her hus band has been in the hotel, but he has not made any request to see her. A Father's Triple Murder. Clinton, Me., March 21. Jacob Dearborn Marr, a farmer living eight, miles from this village, killed his three children, Alice M., aged 13; Elwin, aged 9, and Helen, aged 7, with an axe, shortly after the family had risen from the dinner table to day. . Marr had been despondent for some time, but his actions were not such as to make his wife believe he had any serious troubletto brcoJ over. The eldest daughter was washing dishes at the sink when her father went by her to the shed and got an axe. He came back into the kitchen and struck the girl a single blow on the head, killing her. Mrs. Marr saw this and ran screaming to the house of her husband's father, Samuel Marr. The husband apparently, walked up-stairs to where the young er children Were playing and dealt each a single blow with the axe han dle, killing both. When Mr. Marr, Sr., came in the young Marr' was washing bis hands at the sink. He was asked why he done the deed and he said: "I don't know." Later in the day he was placed under arrest and taken to Waterville. Desperado and Officer Killed. Deputy Marshal A. S. Whitley was killed in attempting to arrest Lum Scott for illicit distilling in Lincoln county, Ga., Monday. Scott also was killed. ALL OVER THE STATE.

The other day she went hunting and was successful in shoot ing two squirrels. This reads like jiioneer days when women took an active part in all the hardships and privations of that day and time. It is said that we are growing wiser and weaker as a people. With wo men, especially, this seems to be the case. Very few of the present gen eration are able to do the physical work which their mothers did. This applies especially to town life, and we suppose, to a great extent in the country. What is needed is more physical development among girls and young women.
