KKFLKC- There are certain epochs "round shave them as you may," in a man's life that determine his destiny; and we desire to touch one (r two of these briefly, and in a spirit of candor that will car ry conviction with our words. The boy who has no ambition to succeed in life will live to die "unwept, unnonoreu ana un-j sung"; but the one born with a lauable ambition will overcome nil obstacles, and like a meteor illumine the darkness through which his course shall lie. It re quires the most exalted courage to live, as God would have us live; and the most sublime faith to die as tied would have us die. It is one of the wisest dispensations of Providence that bovs do not tending They wonder whether or not their boy will be caught in the gay whirl of society and forget the traditions and the teachings of the home life; for the home life of the State is largely Chris tian, whether its institutions are dominated by the Christ spirit or not. One of the most grave obsta cles that the new student sees ahead of him on entering college is hazing, not sympathy, the thing for which he yearns more than all else. In some, let us be thank ful that not in all our higher in stitutions of learning, the new He must submit to an ordeal of unwarranted abuse, sorry we cannot una a milder ana more forcible term of expression, at the hands of the older students, by way of "initiat"o;i", after which he is expected to join the armv of his persecuters. Failing to do this he is visited a second or third time to force him from the defensive to the offensive; and thus, in turn, to become him self a terror to all new comers. "Mv brethren, these things ought not so to be." Is there no remedy? Surely there is a rem edy for every ill with reference to individual conduct. Laxness of dicipline for the purpose of re taining the students now in col lege is deterring others from at- The colleges are losing THE LRMEN SEASON. Yesterday, February 17th, was Ash Wednesday, the first day of the Lenten season, lasting forty days preceding Easter. The Cath olic and Episcopal churches are the only religious bodies, we be lieve, in this country that give any special attention to Lent; but these organizations observe the season for the entire time, Sundays excepted, in fasting ancl prayer, and in the renunciation, as far as possible, of all worldly pursuits. Marriage is forbidden, especially by the Catholic church during the continuance of Lent. It is intended to commemorate several Scriptural historical rec ords. Moses in speaking of his visit to Mount Sinai says, "I abode in the mount forty days and for ty nights. I did neither eat bread nor drink water." After Elijah had been twice fed by an angel, it is said that he "went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb, the mount of God." The deluge covered the earth forty days and forty nights; the children of Isreal traversed the wilderness forty days HON. MARCUS A HANNA DEAD. R. M. TWITTY, Dealer in STAPLE and FANCY GROCERIES. An Astute Politician, a Shrewd Or ganizer, His Loss to the Party is lr . reparable. The death of Senator Marcus A. Hanna, at Washington, at 6:40p.m. on Monday last, has CottOll Seed Hulls, removea one oi rne most promi nent figures from public life. He has been chairman of the Repub lican National Committee for eight years, and was only recent ly re-elected to succeed himself as united btates benator trom Ohio. He has frequently been mentioned as a probable can didate for the Presidency, though he had never publicly given his consent to allow his name to be used in this connec tion. His death removes the on ly possible rival to Mr. Roose velt's nomination for that exal ted position. Though Senator Hanna had not been verv well Meal.

These like the precious moments of time which are never taken away until others are given, un fold, one by one, as their increas ed strength is able to withstand the accumulated burdens. With normal exercises, physical -development will take care of it self; but the natural trend of the human mind is immoral, and the gratification of the flesh is a propensity that must be daily crucified, if man would attain anything worth having in the present, or any hope for the life within the veil. The turning point in the lives of thousands of our progressive and ambitious young men is when they decide, with the concurrence of their parents, that they will or will not attend some reputable college : not to go is to abandon their cherished hopes; to go is to voluntarily submit to a series of trials that staggers their sublim est courage. In addition to the many disadvantages of a more thorough preparation for the ad vanced work they are expected to perform for the four years term of scholastic training, they are to be met by a strange student body whose sympathy is often wanting. Verily, the young man thus isola ted from home and friends, is for a time, "a 6tranger in a strange Hnd"; and he more keenly feels the want of co-operationand kind personal friendship than at any time in the history of his life. While our young man is wrest ling with his ability and his cour age to undergo all that awaits him in his new sphere of labor, his parents are concerned possi bly more for the effect that his new surroundings will have upon his moral and his religions devel opment than to any other phase of the subject. They read such exiracis in ine aauy papers as the following from the News & Observer of the 12th and 13th respectively : A delight fal dance was given last flight at the A. & M.

This is called Catarrh ot the Stomach.
