SOME GOOD ADVICE.
MAKE YOUPSELVESJPURE IN THOUGHT,
WORD AND DEED.
Wholesome Suggestions to Young
People and Old Ones As Well-"By
Thine Words Thou Shalt Be Con
demned and By Thy Yords Thou
Shalt Be Justified."
IN', li. Fowpes, in Word and Woiks.j
Young man, young woman, of
"Youth and Beauty" be pure in
thought, word and deed. In thought
because thought makes the man, for
"as a man thinketh in his heart so is
he." It is the thoughts that we en
tertain that shape our characters and
color our lives. From the life of young
men and women it is plainly to be
seen what kind of thoughts they have
for their constant companions, for they
take root in the heart and spring forth
into the life. We are not responsible
for the people whg pass our door but
I we are responsible lor tnose wnom we
j invite into our homes to enjoy our
I fireside and our society, even so we
I are not responsible for the thoughts
; that flit through the mind, lor the evil
j one is forever casting his fiery darts at
, us, if haply he may obtain a footing,
and destroy that which is good, but we
, are responsible for the thoughts which
; we entertain and harbor. An impure
1 thought or temptation may flash
j through the mind but if cast out imme
i diately it is no sin and can do no
harm, but if it is thought of and rjlled
as a sweet morsel under the tongue it
becomes sin and does harm. A little
leak has sent many a noble ship to the
bottom of the sea; so an evil thought
has sent many a soul to perdition. The
heart ;s the foundation upon which we
build character: As we build our
magnificent buildings upon, a solid
foundation, and are careful to have it
secure, so in building character that is
not built for a generation but for eter
nity it behooves us to see that the
foundation is sure and secure. Doubt
less, thought is the greatest power be
longing to mortal man. It is by
thought that greatness is achieved, vie
tories gained, that empires rise and
fall. The greatest things that have
ever been given to the world, all in
ventions and discoveries have been by
thoughtful minds. Very few things
have been stumbled upon accidentally
y idle, thoughtless men; if apparent
accidents have happened it has been to
those who have searched long and ear
nestly and in every direction for the
secret that was at last unfolded.
We can often tell by the faces of
those whom we meet what are the
thoughts of the heart, for thoughts
leave their tell tale marks upon the
lace as well as upon the life. There is
one with a proud and haughty look,
there is o. e with sensual lines, another
who has a covetous or avaricious look,
cunning and selfish, another with a
pleasant face, or honest, or pure and
good. Jt so happens that by the aid
ol these things our lellowmen lnow us
better than we imagine. Be pure then
that the face and life may bear their
messages of love to the world. Jt so
happens that there is a certain class of
young men who think it is a disgrace
to be pure or even to be thought of as
such. When they meet their worst
side is seen; if there is anything to be
spoken of it is the impure things, hid
ing the good if there is any g)od in
them, they attempt to make them
selves out to be worse than they really
are. They think it is not manly to be
pure minded, while those who try to
lie pure and dare to show it are often
called "sissy boy." Perhaps from
fear or ridicule the pure is hidden from
sight. The world stands in need of
courageous youn men who dare to be
and cfo right because right is light. It
it very casv to be good 'and do good
at times, to say kind and polite things '
and to act the part of a gentleman,
even when the heart is full of bitter
ness, hatred and murder. What we
desire to see is a life of purity. The
impure thoughts may be kept out of
sight lor a long time, they may smoul
der away for months, but if allowed to
smoulder they will surely burst inlo a
flame anil the world see the conflagra
tion. The bank cashier was tempted
a long time before he yielded, he
watched his opportunity, but at last it
came and the world knew of his sin.
Therefore be jiqrp in thoqght.
Be pure in word, "for out of the
abundance of the heart the mouth
speaketh," Thoughts affect us directly
and others indirectly, while words af
fect others directly. Confer a short
time with a young man and you will
be able to tell much of his mind, for
he will be sure to speak of the things
that interest him most. How the first
impure word that we uttered or heard
others utter shocked us, but after
awhile those same impurities become a
delight, showing that "the heart is de
cietful above all things." If the pure
minded are shocked and pained when
obliged to listen to what is impure,
how must it be to a pure and holy
Ood. The power of words upon men
and the lives of men are being tested
daily, by one person persuading
another either to do evil or to do good.
By words men are led to give up evil
habits, to reform, or a throng of peace
ful citizens may be incited until they
become a howling mob, taking ven
geance upon innocent mortals. ome
homes are very impure, things that
ought never to be mentioned are spo
ken of as if there were no lines to be
I drawn. The other day a young mar
ried lady said to me, "I would not
' want my little girl to live in such a
home and be obliged to listen to the
language that is spoken there." What
sort of children are such homes turn
ing out into the world? "We must
give an account of every idle word;"
although we may think idle words
that amount to nothing they are re
corded against us, and "by thine
words thou shalt be condemned and
by thy words thou shalt be justified."
It matters not what we say and how
we say it. James says "he that stum
bleth not in word is a perfect man,"
and "if he does not bridle his tongue
his religion is vain."
Be pure in deed not because you
expect to be applauded, but because it
is right. One young man said of
another "he is a clean young man,"
he was in a position to say so, although
he himself made no pretentions of being
gooa, irom ine tone ot voice we per
ceived that he had great respect for
the clean life of that young man. It
is the pure lives that leave effect upon
the world, and such lives are not lived
in vain. There are those who may
laugh ami sneer, but at the same time
they cannot help but admire the life
that can remain pure and good in the
midst of so many temptalions, in the
midst of so much that is impure and
stained and polluted by coming in
contact with the world. So again,
say be clean, be pure in thought, word
and deed. For the pure in heart shall
see God.
WRITE HER EVERY DAY.
Comrade have you got a wife?,
VA rite her ?very day;
Half t 'id Joy is out of her life
When you are away:
Write her from a speeding car;
Never mind the thump and Jar
Which vonr loving letters mar
Write her every day.
You are in the stirring world.
She at home must stay.
Conscious you are beiw; whirled
Farther yet away.
There she's watching, waiting, listening,
With heart beating, with eyes glisting,
Cjuick to catch the postman's whistling,
Write her every day.
Would yon some kind service render,
Sweet attention pay?
Then a loving letter send her,
When you are away.
Would you her home life brighten!
Would you all her sorrows lighten!
Ikmds of sweet affection tighten?
Write her every day.
Ami, however far you wander,
I am sure 'twould pay.
Could you see her read and ponder
Over what you say.
Have your tablet in your grip,
Fountain pen charged to the tip,
Then don't let the chances slip.
Write her every day.
If you chance to gulsh a little,
And perhaps you may.
She will grant you full acquittal,
It is safe to say:
Write her genuine love letters,
Hivetin anew love's fetters,
These are Cupid's best absetters.
Write her every day.

It is generally conceded that this is
a reading age, yet one who comes in
touch with the general run of human
ity as do the doctors, lawyers, minis
ters and editors, sees every day people
unable to converse onqr to understand
the doings of the age because they
read neither books nor newspapers.
The price of such a knowledge and
the time to acquire, at least, an intelli
gible part is in the reach of nearly all,
and it is their own fau.lt.
The man who undertakes to be in
telligent and does not read the news

UK. HARTMAN SAYS
Now is the Time to Guard Against
Colds The First Cold Weather.
In a recent lecture at the urgica)
lotel lr. Hartmaa is reporledi assay
ing that no one need catch cold if he
is willing to give the matter slight at
tention ; that a cold is the beginning
of chronic catarrh, consumption, disease
of the liver, stomach, kidneys and pel
vic organs. All this could be preven
ted by taking his ad ice. The doctor's
professional duties compelled him, for
many years, to be much on the road
night and day, by carriage, railroad and
steamboat. During all this time he
never caught a cold. This could not
hive been done without Pe-ru-na ; he
says. At the slightest evidence of a
cold a few doses of Pe-ru-na invariably
checks it.
This is especially seasonable advice,
for the cold winter is here, with its
storms, sudden changes, slop, rain and
snow. Thousands of people will con
tract diseases from which they will
never recover, by catching cold. Dr.
Hartman's advice should be heeded.
Pe-ru-na cures catarrh of any stage or
location. It is the most popular rem
edy for la grippe, coughs, colds, etc.
Send for a free copy of an illustrated
book on catarrh. It contains sixty
four pages of valuable instruction.

Advice For Those Who Have Just

Also For Those Who May Be
Called "Old Stagers' m the flatrl
monial Harness.
I Yeudis in Berkley (Va.) Graphic. J
You now, no doubt, consider your
self the happiest of men, and you have
reason to think yourself so. You have
obtained that for which you have been
seeking. It has been an object of your
pursuit to find someone worthy of your
affections and calculated to increase
your happiness. You have found the
prize and she has left her home, her
family and friends, to share in your
pleasures and sorrows. She has given
to you her whole heart. On you now
rests much, most of her happiness. As
the vine twining around the majestic
oak makes it a far more interesting
object, while at the same time it ac
knowledges its superior height and
strength, so is the love of woman.
Meek and confiding, she leans on him
she has chosen for a companion. She
looks to him as a protector. She ex
pects from him sympathy. Oh! if
there is aught that is pure and heav
enly on earth it is sacred unison of
souls, this affection which knows no
desire beyond the happiness of each
other no wish nor pleasure that both
t T
may noi snare, uui in proportion as
these feelings are ardent, these affec
Hons are pure and holy, so are they
delicate and sensible to neglect. The
heart that is barren of fond affections
feels an unkind word, but that which
is full of confiding love an unkird
word will wound. Bear this, then, con
stantly in mind; if you wish to keep
the affections of r.er you have chosen,
show her ever that she has your whole
heart. True affection can not be
gained for naught. Friendship which
truly deserves the name is not caught
with a golden bait, nor lured with one
sunny smile. "Love, and love only is
the loan for love."
Most young females possess warm
affections and know but little of life
and its realities. They expect when
they marry to be in a state of perfect
happiness. They think not of care or
responsibility. They think only of
being with one whom they love above
all others. Shall this fond expectation
be disappointed? Shall these affec
tions be destroyed? Shall this devoted
heart be crushed with all these bright
lopes clustering thick abaut it? Ah,
no! It is the duty of the husband
with a kind and gentle hand to temper,
rather than with a cold hand to chill
them. He must never allow that vul,
gar expression to prove true "Court
ship and marriage are very different
things." They should not be differ
ent. You may, and you ought to,
show to your wife all those endearing
attentions which first arrested and
fixed on you her affections. Never
let her feel the difference between a
lover and a husband, or rather be as
much a lover after marriage as before.
It is often said that man is an active,
restless being, full of excitement and
pleased with all that is new. But if
he is this he is also a social and do
mestic being. You are actively en
gaged in business, and while you are
so, are contented. You mix much in
society, enter into public affairs of in
terest, and join with others in the
familiar discussion on the topics of the
day. But are you satisfied with these?
Will these, and these alone, make you
happy? They cannot. When the
day, with its bustle and cares is over,
you return to your quiet fireside. And
then you desire to meet one on whom
much of your happiness depends. Do
you wish your step to give her pleas
ure? Would you have her welcome
you with smile and receive from her
kind words? Do the same by her. You
wjsh your family well arranged? Are
you desirous that prudence, order,
neatness and good taste should make
its several parts? M,ake these cares a
pleasure to her, by being yourself
pleased when you see them well per
formed. She will, if before deficient,
gradually acquire a habit of attention
and consideration, as indeed they are
eminently her sphere of duty, When
you chos.e a wife you did not probably
think her handsomer than any other,
or more learned than any other.
But you thought she possessed that
union of qualities, that "happy medi
um" which was best calculated to
make you happy. Never fear to let
her be sensible of this. Never let the
fear of jokes or smiles prevent your
showing it, in the presence of others.
A foolish fondness, an affected polite
ness is indeed almost disgusting as we
sometimes see it displayed by married
people. And it is often to my mind
an indication of a want rather than
an overplus of affection. But there is
a politeness that springs from the heart;
there are attentions which a true in
terest and affection prompt, and these
should never be neglected. Qb, tell
it not in Christendom that your af
fections are not inviolable. Common
consent and the providence of God has
made the husband superior to the
wife. But it is not necessary to assert
this superioity. If done, it tends to
lessen the affect ion of both, If your
wife has the proper views and feelings
she will show sufficient deference to your
opinion without being reminded of it.
It is the distinguishing mark of civilized
society, it is a peculiar excellence of
Christianity that woman is made the
companion not the slave and depend
ent of man. The timeis gone by when
when women were thought no souls.
In physical strength and active labor
they must yield, but they may, and
often do, possess as much firmness of
mind and strength oi purpose as the
other sex.
In order, then, to make your wife
happy, yourself so, and your home
pleasant to both, follow the dictates
ol duty and affection. Then she will
have no desire to seek pleasure abroad.
She will not desire the admiration of
others if she have your confidence. She
will be ready to give up the allure
mer.'s f gaiety and fashion, for the
more endearing pleasures of quiet do
mestic happiness. Nothing in life is
so pure and devoted as woman's love.
It matters not whether it be exerted
for husband or child, sister or brother,
it is the same pure unquenchable flame,
the same constant and immaculate
glow of feeling, whose most proper
food is misfortune, and whose unde
niable touchstone is trial, where true
friendship is tetsed and proved. Do
but give her one token of love, one
kind word or gentle look, even if it be
amid desolation and death, the feelings
of that faithful heart will gush forth as
a torrent, in dpite of every earthly
bond of mercenary tie. More price
less than the gems ot uolconda is a
virgin's heart, and more devoted than
the idolatry of Mexico is a woman s
love. It is a principle and character
istic of her nature, a faculty and in
fatuation which absorbs and concen
trates all the fervor of her soul and the
depths of her bosom. 1 here is more
thrilling felicity derived from a union
of true, guileless and-uncontaminaied
hearts than all the conquests of Alex
ander or Napoleon, the wisdom of
Socrates or the wealth of Cnesus.

A NORTH CAROLINA ENTERPRISE.
The
Tyson & Jones Buggy Com
pany's Exhibit at Atlanfi.
We take pleasure in publishing the
following concerning a well known
meritorious North Carolina enterprise,
the Tyson & Jones Buggy Co., of
Carthage. Their buggies are sold in
Henderson by Harris, Gooch & Co.
Having seen their exhibit at the Expo
sition, we endorse the following from
the Aberdeen Teleram:
That progressive and enterprising
firm of carriage builders, the Tyon &
Jones Buggy Company, who have
done more in the last fifteen years to ad
vertise this county than everything else
combined, has an excellent exhibit of
their fine carriages. They were the
only Southern carriage builders that
had the grit and enterprise to make
an exhibit. They had to go to a heavy
expense to make an exhibit, but when
it comes to judicious advertising they
do not let expenses stand in the way.
We spent twenty years of our life in
the carriage business and claim to be
somewhat of a judge of fine vehicles,
and although some of the best manu
facturers in the country are represent,
ed here, we unhesitatingly say that the
Tyson & Jones Buggy Company's dis
play is equal to, if not the best, at the
Exposition. Mr. T. B. Tyson, Jr.,
the hustling Secretary and Treasurer
of the firm, was in charge while we
were there, and was kept busy show
ing people through, giving prices and
b joking orders. Their exhibit of
eleven jobs consisting of a midway
trap, bellamy trap, English T cart,
victoria pheaton, conopy top surry,
shell body cabriolet, 2 victorias, con
pirockaway, and two buggies. This
firm is now felling their vehicels from
Maryland to Texas. And it is the
wish of every Carolinian that instead
of manufacturing 3,000 vehicles a year
they may son be making 10,000. In
addition to the carriage exhibit in this
building quite a number of the best
manufacturers of bicycles have large
exhibits of their goods.

A DISTINGUISHED FOREIGNER ON OUR
FINANCIAL TROUBLES.
The Forum's Leading Article For De
cember M. Paul Leroy-Beaulieu,
the Eminent French Economist,
Writes Concerning the Financial
Problems of the United States.
TThe Forum. J
The leading article in The Forum
for December is probably the clear
est analysis of the present financial sit
uation in the United States that has
yet appeared. The article is contrib
uted by M. Paul Leroy-Beaulieu, the
distinguished French economist, who
lays down, from the point of view of a
sympathetic European observer, the
"Conditions for American Commer
cial and Financial Supremacy." He
says that there is much surprise
throughout Europe that a great nation
like the United States should allow its
d .velopment to be trammelled by fre
quent and severe crises, and that it
should be either unable to discern their
causes or lack decision to remove them
faom its path. He thinks that the
failure of the American government to
redeem its paper currency after the
War was a great and vital error; whose
evil influences are still felt. In his
opinion, the United States government
should cease to issue paper money, re
mitting this task to the banks. M.
Bieuleau points out that the geographi
cal position of the United States is
such that it can aspire to take from
England, in the course of the next
century, its commercial and financial
supremacy, but that in order to do
this the dollar must be given the quali
ties of the pound sterling. In other
words there must be no sort of doubt
that it is a gold dollar. After warn
ing Americans not to be duped by
the ambiguous expressions as to bimet
allism, indulged in by European
statesmen for political .effect, he calls
attention to the enormously increasing
output of hold, and says that, in view
of this fact, the bimetallism movement
is bound to collapse.
WHY THE UNITED STATES IS UNABLE TO
STOP GOLD EXPORTS.
An advance in the money rate in
order to arrest the outgo of specie,
particularly gold, is sure to succeed if
the government does not disturb the
natural course of operations by arti
ficial measures. Such an advance
checks the imports of merchandise,
and, on the other hand stimulates ex
ports. It draws capital from abroad
to seek the better returns which are
the consequences of this advance. It
induces a certain number of the hold
ers of public and other securities to
part with them, and influences foreign
capitalists to purchase them. Thus
whenever the banks, public or private,
are charged with the protection of the
metallic reserve of the country, they
accomplish it with certainly by this
sovereign method of raising the money
rate. In a normal condition of inter
national financial relations, this ad
vance may be moderate, and the
country experiences only slight
detriment, a light and momentary em
barrassment, not to be compared to
the shock and discredit resulting from
an outgo of gold the end of which
cannot be calculated. On the con
trary, when the State issues the fiduc
iary currency, as in the United States,
it has no real means of protecting the
metallic reserve. It cannot raise the
discount rate, for it does not discount
commercial paper. It is under obliga
tion io pay gold to all who demand it,
without any power to regulate or re
duce the demand. It is absolutely
disarmed. Its sole resource is to se
cure specie by loans abroad. But as
these loans have no effect on the gen
eral current of business, their proceeds
are soon exhausted, and they must be
renewed. This incapacity to protect
its reserve is the chief reason why a
State is not fitted to issue fiduciary
money.
CONDITIONS lOR AMERICAN COMMERCIAL. 1
AND FINANCIAL SUPREMACY.
So soon as the capitalists, small and
great, of Europe, shall know that the
United States have definitely adopted
the gold standard and relegated silver
to a subordinate monetary role, the
savings of Western Europe will flow
toward that country. Freed from the
fear that he may some day be repaid
in depreciated money, every person
with savings in all Europe will be happy
to find'a return of 2 to 4 per cent,
in good American securities, and of 5
to S3 P1 cent, in the shares of well
established American enterprises. Then
the immense territory of the United
States will find its vast resources rap- j
idly and completely put in the way of !
exploitation. The abandonment of!
notes or Daner money issued by the j
State: the definite adoption of gold as
the sole standard, these are the two
necessary conditions on which the
United states can secure a financial
position as imporiant as that they now
hold in agriculture and in industry,
On these two conditions they ca
some day approach and equal Great
Britian as a financial power. If, on
the contrary they persist in their sys
tem of government paper money and
in the "rehabiliation" of silver, their
industrial and commercial develop
ment alike will be trammelled, and
they will undergo marked and per
manent experiences of financial weak
ness.
THE SECRET Or ENGLAND'S FINANCIAL
SUPREMACY.
If the United States are to attain a
commercial, and still more a financial
position equal to that of England, the
dollar must be given the qualities of
the pound sterling, that is, there must
be no sort of doubt that it is a i;old
dollar, and that never for any reason
or under any pretext that which is
called a dollar shall be paid in silver
Then all nations will hae the same
faith in the dollar that they have in
the pound sterling. As the I'ni'td
States have a territory infinitely m re
vast than that of England, a territory
full of the most varied resources and
in which capitalists can find great op
oortunities of rwofit. that country will
1
become the chosen land for the capi
tal of the whole world. The old na
tions, with narrow territory already
almost completely in use such as (be
sides Great Britian) France, Belgium,
Switzerland and recently, Germany,
all these strenuous producers of savings
that they no longer know how to em
ploy, will direct their overflowing cap
ital toward the United Stales. All
that is lacking is a completely solid
monetary system to enable the Ameri
can people to profit by a large part of
the capital accumulated in such enor
mous quantities by the old nations of
Europe. At the present moment
throughout Europe, and even in France
prudent people try to have a part of
their fortune in pounds sterling, be
cause it is known that pounds sterling,
are the only true money, that is tc- siy,
money that is not exposed to change
by new legal arrangements. It is not
known exactly what the dollar will be,
or the mark, or even the franc. The
whims of legislators may change them
in the future, as they have changed
:.hem in the past. On the contrary!
there is rooted confidence among men
engaged in finance the world over, i
that the pound sterling will always lie
a piece of gold 7 grammes and oSS
milligrammes, 916.66 fine, and that
England will never commit the blun-i
der of putting gold and silver on the j
same footing as money. Thus the j
pound sterling, all the world through,!
especially when long contracts are to !
be made, is not only the money far
excellence; it is the only money, and
in it alone can be placed almost ab
solute confidence.
THE ATTITUDE OF EUROPE TOWARD P.I
METALI.ISM. There is not a single European
country in a normal financial condi
tion, that attaches the slightest impor
tance to bimetallism. From time to
time some Minister utters in Parlia
ment a few equivocal words on the
subject, seeking to avoid stripping the
biinetallists absolutely of all hope. But
America must not be duped by these
ambiguous expressions. At bottom
not a country, not a government of
Europe has the least wish to make the
least change in the established mone
tary system, that is, in the pre-eminence
of gold and the secondary and circum
scribed function of silver. If from
time to time the bimetallists obtain
some vague Ministerial promises to
study the monetary problem, it is due
to the habit, common to all European
statesmen, of avoiding offending or
definitely estranging any -group of
voters, even one of slight importance.
W. A. Mc(iuire. a well known citizen of
McKay, Ohio, is of the opinion that there
is nothing as good for children tnuililcd
with colds or croup as Cliainlierhuirs

family for several years with the hest results
and always keeps a hottle of it in the

himself troubled wUh a severe couh. He
used other remedies without benefit and
then concluded to try the children's medi
cine and to his delight it soon effected a
permanent cure-

Arab Horse Maxims.
Let your colt be domesticated and
live with you from his tenderest age,
and when a horse he will be simple,
docile, faithful and inured to hard
ships and fatigue.
If you would have your horse to
serve you on the day of trial, if you
desire him to be a horse of truth,
make him sober and inaccessible to
fear.
I)jnot beat your horses, and speak
to them in a loud tone of voice; do I
not be angry with them, but kindly
reprove their faults; they will do bet
ter thereafter, for they understand
the language of man and its mean
ing. Use your horse as you do your
leathern bottle; if you open it gently
and gradually, you can easily control
the water therein, but if yo i open it
suddenly, the water escapes at once,
jand nothing remains to j tench your
(thirst.
