When his mother asked him why he had not sold the corn he said no one had asked him what was in the sack. There are many merchants like that boy some in Salisbury. They have plenty of goods, but fail to tell the people what they have in their sack. A brood of nearly a hundred little chicks, each one stout and lively, and hustling for itself, with no old hen clucking and fussing around is something of a novelty. Such a brood may be seen near the posjtoffice ... in a neat little yard fitted up for its every accommodation and is the property of Mrs. Kate Thompson. The brood was hatched by an incuhator, fifty two chicks being taken out Friday morn ing, besides others at various tiiries. Burlington Herald.

One of the worst signs of the times is the reluctance of parents.to gi ve their sons trades.

Let the labor-scoffer look around him, look at himself, and learn what are the trophies of toil. From the cuown of his head to the sole of his foot, unless he is a Carih, made as the beast, he is the debtor and slave of toil. The , labor which he scorns has tracked . him into the stature and appearence of a man. Where, does he get his garments : and equipage? Let labor answer. Labor makes music in the mine, in the fur- row, and at the forge. The wise father will give his son a trade or profession and make him a good citi zen and practial Christian. He Was Up to Snuff. ' Greensboro Record.' The other day four farmers, three of whom were Republican and one a Democrat, were talking at Walnut Cove. The Republican brethren were accusing Cleveland of being the cause of the hard time3. They poured hotshot into the Democrat and for a time he was at a loss to meet their arguments. Finally he got them. Said he: "Well, you can growl all you want to, but there's one thing he's done he's give us the best crops we've iiad in fortv vears anvwav, and I dare -you deny it."

Now and then some one bobs up with what he supposes to be a brand new solution of, the raco problem. A Mr. Gravesof Georgia, comes to the front and gravely proposes . the removal of the negroes to Arizona, which he thinks would; be a good place for the establishment of an Anglo-African State. That's not old as the new. The idea is as discussion of the race problem. We have heard suggestions of this kind, deportation to Africa, colo nization in this country and in Mexico, numberless and varied, and yet the colored denizen is . here and' here he will stay until he finds some place which will suit him better and Which he can reach easy without tramping,, or working his way. xne race prooiem is: one 01 those problems perplexing as it may seem and as much trouble as it may give people who bother their heads about it, which will in time settle itself in accordance with the im perative laws of nature. As surely as tne river nows xowarus tne sea so will the negro drift toward the sun and eventually find his resting place in the lands where perpetnal warmth and perpetual growth make living "easy. - Thia movement will be slow but it will, go on all the same.
