From the New Orleans CoiTce Com pany, New Orleans, La., we have re ceived the handsomest calendar of the season. It is a richly colored work of art, embossed, and represents two pretty little girls "all dressed in white," just as they had slipped out of bed at early morn sipping "Morning Joy Cotfee." Half con cealed behind the drapery between the sleeping and dining room a third little Miss peeps in upon her com panions and anxiously enquires, "Is there any left?" Heneath a shell shaped coverlet at the lower right hand corner is the calendar,-the whole forming a pretty, unique and useful affair. For Morning Joy Coffee it is claimed that "every drop's a drop of comfort." Certainly the Morning Joy Calendar is a thing of beauty and a joy (and pleasure) for every day in the year. .

Courier-Journal Job Printing Company, Louisville, Ky. From the snowball battle to thai of the '"Bloody Angle," from "Lorena" to "Little Grffin," from the tale of the bivouac to the immortal speech of Grady and the story of Pickett's charge, there is nothing lacking in this big, cheerful, good-humored volume that tells in a desultory, one-sided fashion of what will always be a one-sided affair. It is a timely publication. It cornea at a time when Americans, after thirty years' bow ing acquaintance, have learned how to shake hands with the true American grasp. It will stir none of the old ill feeling. It is fimply a book that if bought by Northern men will help to teach them why the Southern boys who went to the front in 1898 did so because i hey were proud of and not ashamed of their fathers and grandfathers. And without a word of bitterness or con tumely for the men who opposed them, it will bring to the honored wearers of the Gray hours of reminiscent pleasure. The book is a handsomely printed compilation of the tales and the songs and the jests of the days long dead. It is a big book and an entertaining book, a book with good stories and plenty of pictures and a book without a taint of b'Mterness. The above is what one of the lead ing papers of the country says of the book "Camp Fires of the Confed eracy," an advertisement of which appears elsewhere in these columns. This is a new book and the prospec tus shows that it will be a beautiful volume, full of merit and interest especially to the old soldiers and their descendants. Edited by Gen.

Fairjeigh, Platte Cannon, Col. Tutt's Liver Pills PLEASURE EXPRESSED At the Present Status and Future Outlook of the Seaboard Air Line Under the New Order of Things. The article published in the Gold Leaf last week from the Manufactur ers'1 Record giving an interview with Mr. John Skelton Williams in regard to the future of the Seaboard Air Line, which the syndicate headed by him has recently acquired control of, was read with interest and pleasure by friends and well wishers of the road. There is much satisfaction at the status of affairs as far as known to the public and confidence is ex pressed in the plans and purposes of those into whose hands the control of this vast system has iust been transferred as outlined by Mr. Wil liams. It is gratifying to know that the Seaboard is to continue to be oper ated as an independent and compet ing line and that the same liberal and progressive policy which has characterized its management here .... . . .. toiore will be maintained. In this connection the closing part of Mr. Williams' interview is worthy of re production. He says: "Under the able management of Mr. Hoffman and Mr. St. John, the Seaboard has been a potent factor in the develop ment of the South. The policy of de velopment will be pursued with vigor, and the people along the line may be assured that there will be no backward step. It will be the aim of those who have now come into this system to give every possible aid and encouragement to ttie extension of commercial interests at the seaboard, to the growth of manu facturing along the entire system, to the diversification of agriculture, and to the most intelligent work of drawing population and new capita! into this territory. We recognize the mutuality in interest that the prosperity of the road depends upon the prosperity of the country and with that in view we shall work tor the advancement of the whole country which is tributary to our lines. 1 he South has made wonderful nroir- ress, but what it has accomplished is only the beginning. Its growth in the next few years will, I am sure, be greater than that of any period in the past, and in this progress we expect to see the Sea board do its full duty to the country and reap the full benefit of increased business. "I may add," said Mr. Williams in closing, "that our policy ie to maintain the Seaboard as an absolutely independ ent line, and there need be no fear as to any absorption by any other system. It will be abundantly able to take care of itself and to play a leading part in every pood work for the advancement of the South, and we hope not only to retain all the friendly interests given to its former management, but to still fur ther strengthen its hold upon the good will of the people.

(Correspondent Charlotte Observer ) Washington', Jan. 30. One of the best speeches of the many short ones which have been made against the bill providing for the permanent in crease of the regular army was that of Congressman Kitchin. The young Congressman from North Carolina has taken an excellent position in the estimation of his Democratic colleagues and the good impression which he has made heretofore was strengthened by his common sense utterances upon this very important question. He took strong ground against army increase which he held was cf course the real purpose of this re organization bill, and went at some length into reasons for opposition to what he termed the imperialistic policy of the administration. He said: "Scorning the misrepresentations of ignorance and bisrotrv, reioicins in the victories of our army and navy and responsible to the descendants of the first proclaimers of American liberty for my conduct, I shall vote against increasing the standing army of the United States from 30,000 to 100,000 men in time of peace." He referred touchingly to the memories which clustered around Alamance and Guilford, and then poke in eloquent words of the sacri fices' made by North Carolina in the recent war with Spain when brave Bagley fell at Cardenas and Shipp on the hill of San Juan. He said no man could feel greater honor for the heroes of this war than he, but he did not believe, it was honest to the people to take advantage of the en thusiasm created by the war to put through a bill providing for a perma nent standing army which could only be a heavy burden to thej tax-payers and which might be a menace to the liberties of the people. Referring to the claim that it is wrong to withdraw the flag from any point where it has once flown, he pointed out that Germany's flag had been taken down from the capital of France without dishonor, that the English had withdrawn from Wash ington and the Amercans from Mexico without any dishonor being attached to their flag by this act. He contended that the meaning of the flag would be perverted and distorted if it were to be kept flying in the Philippines as a symbol of despotic Government forced upon the in habitants of those Islands without their consent. "My knowledge of the innate powers of my country," continued Mr. Kitchin, "forbids my aid to this unnecessary expense for military purposes in the time of peace. It would mean an increase from $25, 000,000 to $100,000,000 annually this latter sum being sufficient to buy, as snown dv tax books, three congres sional districts such as I have the honor to represent. . He did not think that th6 volun teers should be kept in if they did not want to remain, but that they should be replaced by men recruited for garrison purposes. He held that the real danger lies in the acquisition of the Philippines and that if the peo ple thoroughly understood the mat ter, a wave of protest would come from the farms anjj. shops, the fields, the mines and the offices of this land that would compel a patriotic ex ecutive to change the course which the President seems to have taken upon this great question. Conclud ing he said: "The old King of Israel, in a moment of infatuation, yielded to temptation," committed a double crime and in his old age mourned his conduct. Let Congress heed the moral and save the country from this error, sprung upon us in a moment of exultation, which our wisest and most honest statesmen have resisted in the past." Building Stone.

Senator Brown, chairman of the committee on penal institutions, says that the state of affairs in the peni tcntiarv is even worse than was sui- posed. He claims that it will take 200,000 to put the penitentiary on its feet again. It is stated officially by the members of this committee that not only were the State's funds squandered, but the guards and some of the officials were in many cases too drunk to attend to the duties of their position, and in several instances female inmates were seduced by those in authority over them. I here is now not the" slightest doubt that this Legislature will wipe out the present regime in the penitentiary to the last man. The Senate to-day decided to proceed the election of directors of the State's prison on February 3rd, and the House will doubtless agree in this resolution. Twelve new direc tors are to be elected at once. The increasing scandal of the peni tentiary has started afresh the report that Gov. Russell is to be impeached, though nothiner has vet been done ooking to such action. The government of numerous coun ties has been taken out of the hands of the Fusioirtsts bv the increase in the number of county commissioners. But to-day a bill was introduced to restore the old system of county government; the Legislature to elect the magistrates and the magistrates he commissioners. This plan is very acceptable to the Eastern counties but it was never popular in the West, and will probably be strongly opposed by some of the W estern members. One system may be adopted for the East andrinother for the West. The special committee appointed to frame the proposed amendment to the Constitution to limit the suffrage has made its report, and the measure is now under consideration by the Democratic caucus. For Article VI an entire new article is substituted, giving the qualification of voters. It is modeled on the Louisiana plan and embodies practically all its features. t provides an educational qualifica tion by requiring all electors to be able to read and write and under stand the Constitution of the State. This is a provision of the suffrage law of most of the Southern States. But it goes further than that, and enables the illiterate white man to vote by providing that anyone whose ances tors voted previous to 1861 shall not be debarred from voting by this amendment. However, all who come under the provisions of this last clause are required to be formally registered before the year 1902. Of course this amendment will bo submitted to the people under a new election law. This law has not yet been presented, but will probably be passed on the order of the Walton law that has worked so well in Vir- nia. Mr. Clarkson's bill to establish a State textile school has been favorably reported by the educational commit tee. Another proposition is to com pel the board of directors of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College to establish a textile branch without additional expense to the State. romier Senator B. r. Aycock, of "Wayne, is most frequently mentioned as the probable superintendent of the penitentiary. Mr. S. L. Patterson, the former commissioner, is fre quently montioned as John R. Smith's successor in the Agricultural De partment, lhere are candidates galore, but as one of them remarked, "When any candidate says he has a large number of -legislators pledged to him he is doing some fancy lying." The members are giving mighty few pledges to anybody. Ihe Legislature has decided to in stigate all the State institutions. and they will take charge of them. When they are through there will be few remnants of Russellism left to tell the tale. The case of the deposed Wilsons has created a great deal of talk the past week and there were several very hot sessions 01 the special com mittee. Attorney Bvnum's attack 011 Gov. Russell was one of the sensa tions of the week. Locke Craige's bill requiring all foreign corporations to become do mestic corporations passed the House by a large majority. It will be strongly fought in the Senate, though. It is opposed by all the railroads and telegraph companies, and their in fluence is potent. JOHN' V ILBt lt JENKINS. H.

If you would forever be rid of the aches and pains, and some times the tortures produced by Rheumatism, you must take the right remedy. Those who con tinue to suffer are relying upon remedies which do not reach their trouble. The doctor's treatment always consists of potash and mercury, which only intensify the disease, causing the joints to stiff en and the bones to ache, besides seriously impairing the digestive organs. Rheumatism is a disordered state of the blood, and the only cure for it is a real blood remedy. Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) goes down to the very bottom of all diseases of the blood, and promptly cures cases that other remedies can not reach. Mr. E. K. S. Clinkenbeard. a promi nent attorney of Mt. Sterling, Ky., writes : "Two years ago J was a great sufferer from Rheumatism. I bad tried every remedy I could hear of except S. S. S. I had been to Hot Springs, Ark., where I remained for twelve weeks under treatment, but I exjM'rienced no pern!,. tient relief, and returned home, l;e j;ovi"!' i!i:-t I would be n stinVrer :::: 1 -fi! n I lived.

Since taking the last dose I have had no return of tho Rheumatism, and I take great pleas ure in recommending 8. 8. 8 to any one who has the misfortune to suffer with this disabling disease."
