A SAIL ON THE CLOUDS.
MANY I.. WVATT.
There's a beautiful cloud fleet passing by,
With white sails all unfurled.
I-fs take a sail o't r the blue expanse
And visit the mystery world.
We'll sail and s:iil o'er the spacious sea.
With the pilot Breeze to steer,
And never come back to the caithland
sweet
For a day and a month and a year.
We'll visit the place where the little dame
I'lucks wcxd from the lleecy clouds
And weaves it into the snow white robes
That are sent for the winter shrouds.
We'll sail to the West when the day is done
And watch while the artist's band
Is painting the glow in the sunset sky
With gorgeous colors and grand.
And we'll see how lie fills his treasure Jars
With pigments of brilliant dye.
Where red and yellow and crimson tints
With the royal colors vie.
For these be mu-t use when the harvest
moon
Ixoks down on the ripened sheaves
And the time has come to brighten the
earth
By painting the forest leaves.
We'll watch the sun as his chariot rolls
Far down the liori.on's rim.
And be carries the beautiful day along,
And earthland is growing dim.
Then we'll sail to the North, where the
Major B'-ar
Is holding bis dipper of rain,
And we'll listen to bear how the llowers
laugh
As he empties it over the plain.
We'll explore the place where the comet
abides
And brushes her hair of gold,
Or plays coquette with the polar star.
Or dances with meteors bold.
Then we'll skim the cieam from the Milky
Way
And make us a choice repast
And lay us to sleep upon downy bed
And dream while the night shall la.t.
Then waking we'll sail to the reddening
Fast,
Where morning comes in at the gate,
And watch the sun with his prancing steeds
Hide up to the door in state.
Then again o'er the boundless blue we'll
til Kit.
Far off in the ether clear.
And never come back to the earthland
sweet
For a day and a month and a year.
hhKK IS FUSION UK LIEF V
Butler (iets S.-,,00( a Year Relief lint
What Did the People (ict ?
(News aud Observer.
When thof-e fanners of North Caro
lina wiio went off with the Populist
movement, hoping to get relief, wake
up to find that they have been robbed
of what credit they possessed, and
lejm that the only methods many of
them had to secure necessary advances
to enable the in to plant and cultivate
their farms has been taken from them
without a word of warning or a mo
ment's discussion, they will, no doubt,
fully realize what the success of the
Fusion movement meant in N r h
Carolina. And hereafter they will
probably be willing to listen tc both
sides and not refuse, at the biddirg of
Marion IJutlcr and Otho Wilson, whj
were merely working to get into iik ;e,
to listen to a discussion of political
questions.
The edict went out last summer
from Uutler that they must not a tie ml
Democratic speakings, nor read Dem
ocratic papers. Democrats sp ko
however, if only to the winds and r.ow
these winds are echoing and re-echoing
with emphasis the warning they gave.
Uutler knew that the people were not
all idiots and he feared that the sound
logic of honest, able, conscientious
Democrats might convince them of
the error into which they were falling
and hence this edict.
To get in was what Butler and his
gang wanted, and in an unguarded
moment the people voted them in.
But where is the relief promised the
people ?
Is railroad ng a bill through at the
bidding of loreign boards of trade,
stealing lrom the farmers the credit
they had the promised relief?
Is an increase of four cents taxes on
Sioo worth of property any relief?
Is a legislature that cost the people
5y,ooo more than the former legisla
ture, any relief?
Is the voting of ;? 125,000 more out
1 the State treasury than was appro
ved two years ago, relief?
Is the change from State to county
adoption, probably necessitating the
buying of new books for the public
schools in nearly every county in the
State, any relief?
Is the increase of offices for party
heelers any relief?
II so our Populist friends doubtless
have all the relief they want. If a ten
line enactment, unwise and unwar
ranted, which blocks trade, revolution
izes business, disturbs all our commer
cial relations and destroys credit is
relief, then Butler, and his fellow of
fice seekers have redeemed their
pledges.
Butler got relief, great relief. He
got six years in the Senate, at $5,000
a year. Otho Wilson got relief in the
shape of a six years' term as Railroad
Commissioner at 2,000 a year. These
two got $42,000 worth of relief, but
where does the relief for the people
come in?
In an increase in taxation, and a
destruction of the credit.
Specimen Cases.
11. riiiford. Now Tassel, Wis., was
troubled with neuralgia and rheumatism;
his stomach was disordered, his liver was
affected to an alarming degree, appetite fell
away, and he was terribly reduced in tlesh
and strength. Three bottles of Electric
Bitter cured him.
Edward Shepherd, H.irrisburg, 111., had
a running sore on his leg f eight years
standing. I'sed three bottles of Electric
Bitters and seven boxes of Bticklen's Ar
nica Salve, and his leg is sound and well.
John Streaker, Catawba, O., had live large
fever sores on his leg, doctor said he was
incurable. One bottle Electric Bitter and
one box of Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured
Iiim entirely. Sold at Melville IVrsey's
lrn iitore.
Is life worth living, with all its dis
appointed hopes, harassiug care, wear
and tear? What a foolish question.
Of course it is. Look out on that
group of happy children, with faces
dimpling in its merry rays. Hear that
rippling laugh, as refreshing as the
fall of water on a summer day. Get
out into the fields, look up into the mel
low blue of the sky, watch the drifting
fleece clouds forget the rest and be
happy that you live. Durham Sun.

Some of Lee's Ideas.
I Practical Poultrynian.J
Lee has now expressed some of h'19
valuable ideas in a new book entitled
"Some of Lee's Ideas." Headers who
want to get the result of years' experi
ence in the poultry business, as well as
a .scientific and practical knowledge of
the same should procure the book.
He starts out on the subject of
poultry houses and in an inexhaustive
manner treats the subject thoroughly.
Iu like manner he takes the feubject of
fences, doors, fastenings, perch, etc.
He makes an important point of ueet
boxes and presents some interesting
and valuable views of automatic boxes.
Feedj troughs and brood coops also
take an important part in this work.
The shipping coop which fills such au
important part in the welfare of the
l'ancjers' birds and is such an item to
the jiurchaser here is pictured out by
wonis and views, so one may have the
best) of conveniences in that line at
vcrjr little expense.
llii closes his work with an excellent
discussion on pedigree breeding which
will be read with intent interest by
every true fancier.
The above has reference to a work
by J. Henry Lee, the well known
artis, fancier and poultry expert, who
is a recognized authority on all matters
pertaining thereto. We have not seen
the book, but have no hesitancy iu
saying that whatever comes from Mr.
Lec'fs pen is worthy of consideration
and .patronage by those who are inter
ested in poultry breeding, whether for
pleasure or profit. If you wish to get
a copy address the author at Indian
apolis, Indiana. Price, 50 cents, post
paid. Eiutok Goi.u Lkaf.
Fowls on the Farm.
ll is impossible to get the best re
sults from fowls kept cooped iu a pen,
especially during hot weather. Dis
ease and vermin get a foothold among
them unless they haye ample range to
sun and dust themselves by contact
with fresh earth. A yard, no matter
how small, that can be plowed or cul
tivated once a week duriug the sum
mer'will make a rolling place for them.
It will be all the better if their graiu
feed is given on this plowed surface,
and the fowls obliged to scratch for it.
They may lose a little grain, but most
of it will turn up at the next cultiva
tion, or, if it germinates its green
sprout will be eaten. On farms the
better plan is to let the fowls range
everywhere, protecting the garden by
a fence and reserving that for hens
with small chicks.
Size of Flocks and Pens.
Maine Farmer. 1
On general principles the smaller the
flock the greater the per cent, of eggs,
but of course there is a limit. Very
much depends on the care given and
the amount of work required of the
hens. A pen 12 by 12 should be am
ple for 30 hens if kept clean and the
supply of earth, chad' or chopped straw
simple to bury completely all food and
keep the hens scratching. Some of
our most successful poultrymen allow
a building 12 by 20 to every 50 hens,
and reap a rich harvest, but very much
depends upon the man. The majority
succeed best with flocks of 12 or 15 in
pens 8 by 12. It seems easier to keep
things in order, and this must be done.
INCOME TAX.
Delay Interpreted to Mean an Adverse
Decision.
Washington, April 2. The delay
on the part of the Supreme Court in
rendering a decision on the constitu
tionality of the Income Tax is inter
preted to mean that the decision will
be adverse to the tax. This would
create a deficiency in receipts to
carry on the government and an extra
session ol Congress may be the result.
The Currency Famine of
"The Currency Famine of 1893' by
John DeWitt Warner, is number 6 of
the Iteform Club's Sound Currency series.
Summarizing- conditions preceding and
accompanying the financial crisis of
IND.'l, Mr. Warner uses them as a back
ground for a detailed nketch of the cur
rency famine which he notes na the spec
ial feature that distinguished this crisis
from others which "had preceded it; and
accompanies this with a moss of detail
as to emergency currency accompan
ied by some fifty facs-simile of paper sub
stitutes for money that to him appears
most significant, and is certainly most
interesting.
1 1 is safe to say that few have appre
ciated the extent to which in all parts of
the country, not merely without assist
ance of law, but in defiance of it, local
currency instautly developed; how great
and urgent was the local relief afforded;
or how promptly and thoroughly, the
necessity being over, it disappeared.
Copies may be obtained by sending
5 cents to the Reform Club, 52 William
St., New York City.
How many thousaud heroines there
must have been, how many thousand
there are now, of whom we shall never
know? But still they are there. They
sow in secret the seed of which we
pluck the flower, and eat the fruit, and
know not that we passed the sower
daily ou the street perhaps some
humble, ill-dressed woman earning
painfully her own small subsistence.

North Carolina Inventors
Have given the world many notable
inventions. There is not a community
iu the State that does not possess one
or more local geuiuses, who have ideas
that are patentable, aud which if prop
erly developed will bring fame and
fortune to their owners. It is often
the case that some simple little appli
ance devised by the housewife, the
storekeeper, the farmer and others to
expedite work or lessen labor, puts
into play an entirely new principle in
invention which may have far greater
value than is known to the originator.
North Carolinians who have evolved
such ideas owe it to themselves and
the industrial enlargement of their
State to ascertain if the same is pat
entable. All such are requested to send
a brief description, sketch or photo to
the Patent Law Department of the
Associated Trade and Industrial Press,
610 Thirteenth street, Washington, D.
C, aud they will hear something to
their advantage. This enterprise ia
managed by a well known North Caro
linian who will take a personal inter
est in the furtherance of inventive
genius in the Old North State. Other
State papers are requested to copy this
notice aud send marked copy.
THE MOST remarkable cores on
record have been accomplished by
Hood's Sarsaparilla. It is unequalled
for all BLOOD DISEASES.
The Poultry Fancier.
The genuine fancier, tfTe man who
loves bis birds, says The Poultry
Monthly, the man who stands among
them and watches them every time he
has a chance, the man who prefers the
company of his fowls to that of the
crowd at the corner grocery or saloon ,
the man who is ever looking to their
comfort and welfare this is the man
who, if blessed with the ability and
knowledge of a breeder and raiser, no
matter if he has only the room and
time to raise a few birds, stays in the
ranks year afte year, and who has
helped to bring our thoroughbreds so
near perfection as they are.
The Poultry Beginners.
If you have a notion of beginning
the poultry business, commence with a
small flock and learn the ins and onts
from the ground up. It is a mistake
that there is nothing to learn in the
successful handling of fowls; that any
one without experience can start iu the
business wholesale at once and make
it profitable, Many have tried it and
failed. If you find that you can make
a few hens pay you and you like the
business, then enlarge the flock.
As soon as as the old heus can be
spared for market they should be fat
tened and sold. This ought to be done
before the hens begin moulting.
Light, nutritious and easily digested
food is what confined fowls require to
do well, but under no consideration
should corn be fed exclusively.
If disease appears aud obstinately
resists remedies, it is better to begin
with new stock than to breed from those
that have been sick a long time.
Mark the pullets that you want to
keep as soon as you know which ones
they are. Then there will be no
danger of their being sold or eaten by
mistake.
The hens should always have some
where to duet. It will aid them to rid
themselves of lice. If a spoonful of
insect powder be added to the dust, all
j the better.
Chickens should not be allowed to
go on the roosts until they are ten
or twelve weeks old. If allowed to
roost loo young their growth and ap
pearance will be injured.
A small box of charcoal kept where
the hens can have access to it will ar
rest disorders of the bowels from over
feeding. Use it freshly burned and
break it into reasonably small pieces.
; One man talks of $1.20 per bushel
tor wheat when it is led to heus and
marketed iu the shape of eggs. If
anything like that can be done, better
cover the farm with hens. Farmer's
Voice
A gentleman keeping a large num
ber of fowls tells us that he has been
very successful in curing cholera by
the use of kerosene oil. Immediately
he sees a fowl ailing he gives half a
teaspoonful of the oil almost invaria
bly with good results. It is a simple
remedy and worth trying, says the
Southern Planter.
TWO ROBBERS CONFESS.
They Picked up Express Packages
Valued at $75,000.
Jersey City, N. J., April 2nd.
Herbert Harding, aged 26, and Clar
ence Warbeck, aged 29, who have
systematically robbed the United
States Express Company of C. O. D.
packages, valued at $75,000, during
the past six months, were arrested
to-day. They made an open confes
sion to the officers. Their method
was to destroy all of the original
shipping cards. Harding was a bill
clerk and sent bill packages to his
confederates. One package, contain
ing $7,000 worth of jewelry, was
taken. Other arrests will follow.
A Walled City in North Carolina.
Pollocksville, Jones county, will
hereafter be known as the "walled
city of North Carolina." Pollocks
ville, it seems had a hog law; that is,
they impounded stray porkers that
wandered about the city's streets. This
made the people outside the town
wroth. They didn't propose to have
the freedom of their swine abridged in
any manner whatsoever. Thereupon
they had the Douglass Legislature to
pass an act requiring a fence to be
1 built around the town of Pollocks
ville.
A story is told of a New York girl
who during a stay in England was
much admired by a subjeet of the
Queen, who proposed but was rejected.
The girl had a lellow on this side
whom she shortly afterwards married.
One day she concluded to give a
dinner, and thought it would be a
nice courtesy to invite her English
admirer over there in London, which
she accordingly did and forgot all
about it until he put in an appearance
at the appointed time to dine. He
dined, enjoyed his dinner, and next
day started for home, having traveled
six thousand miles to show that he
couldn't be outdone in courtesy by
the girl who kicked him.
