Points and Paragraphs of Thiers Prcsjtt, Past and Future. One who can't live and do well in North Carolina would hardly be able to do well anywhere. This Js the opin ion of people outside of the State, as the following from the Youth's Com panion shows : "The industrial progress of the South is fiutly indicated by some recently reported incidents in North Carolina A man hsd b3en living on a small form, almost crushed with debt, went into a cotton-mill wifh five of hischild ren, and ;n five years earned and saved enough money to pay off all his debts :ind to buy another farm of eighty acres. Another poor farmer went into a cotton mill with seven of his children, and in four years was able to pay off the mort gage that had burdened him, to buy another farm of a hundred acres, and still to have money left in the bank. A land in which such things are of com mon occurrence is on the high road to proenty, and very near the goal." China is the gazo of all the nations ui ine earin, ana nas been tor some . t . . i i . . weeks. A writer in tho Saturday Evening Post suggests that it is well to look at some things from the stand point of the other man. For instance, what would the people of this country th'nk and how would they meet the effort if the Chinese should send mis sionaries over here and undertake to teach us that we have all the while b?en worshiping a false god? Wbat would be our attitude against the teaching ihat our religion is all fase? flow w;uld we meet the attempt to have our churches torn down and their heathen gods set up for our worship instead of Jehovah whom we now wor ship? The Chinese call all missionaries foreign devils," aud so would we call therrtlf they were attempting lo'urge thei rrehgion on us as we are ours up on them. To ba sure, we all feel commissioned of God to spread the gcspel of His Sou over all the world ; but to consider mat ters from their standpoint a little will give us more patience with them. Says one authority, "In point of in tellect, as in business and diplomacy, the Chinese are the equals of the ablest and rno;t civilized cations of Christen dom." Viewing tbem in this lieht i- is. not strange that they should resist such encroachments as are unpleasant to them. The present "Boxer movement" in the great empire is something so new that it i3 said nothing cn be learned of it in books. There are various in terpretations of the term "Boxer." In Chinese it is "Yi Ho Choan," which means, thejT saj', "righteousness, bar mony and fists ;" Society- oi th9 Grea or strong Sword. Mr. F. M. Royal!, 8 North Carolina missionary to Chin?, who has just returned to this country, says that the Boxers there call them selves "'The Great Knife Society." They are opposed to all foreigners who go amongst tbem. it is generally thought from the present outiock in China that the great empire will go to pieces. O' the yastness ol the empire the Satnr day Evening Post says : "And yet with all thia intelligence China has never had a census. That is why the figures you read f.bout the population of the empire vary so won derfully. Millions are handled m Chinese guesses as if they were ibe veriest trifles. You will read in or.r authority that the population is 350, 000.000 and in another that it is oyer 100,000,000. Fifty million Chinamen more or Jess do not seem to count. "Tha very latest figures that seem at all depandable if gnessss can ever be dependable show some extraordinary totals. Chin;i proper that fs, Centra! China has 1.322,811 square miles and 383,000,000 population. Manchu ria including what Russia has grab bed has 362,310 square miles ana 18, 000,000 population. Mongolia h.-.R 1.288.C00 square miles and 2,000,0C0 population. Hi, comprising several countries, has 579,750 square miles and 1,180,000 population ; and Thibet has 382,310 square miles and 6,000,000 population. Add ail these together and you will have what has been known as the Chinese Empire. "No nation in the world can produce such totals. No nation can adduce such a variety and wei'th of natural products. China has a range of cli mate as great as that " of the United States. In China proper every acre of land is cultivated it is the most thoroughly cultivated country on the globe. Ithas all the cereals and all the fruits ; it has both anthracite and bituminous coal, and it is rich in gold, silver, lead, tin, copper, petroleum and natural gas. Its great river the Yang tse Kiang is open to foreign trade for i7nn mii9 fiOO miles of which is navi- Kdble by the largest ocean-going ships Ifl, UU uw i-a '-' gable by steamers." - j r;rui m pa more oi wuitu jo The On Day Co,dl'T?. f, COMMONWEAl REFLECTIONS FROM THE 4TH. INTEMPERANCE IN THE HOME Custom's Iron Rule. Doubtless some Fourth of July obser vations moved a correspondent to write the following for the Norfolk Virginian Pilot for Jnly 5th : What the shell is to the fort, the tornado to the forest, the eartquake to th9 earth, that intemperance is to the home. The shell st rises the fort, and it is demolished, destroying the Uvea within ; the tornado, the forest and it lies in a tangled masj of ruin ; the earthquake rends the very earth, and then we fear to trust it. It temperance in the home is all this and more. It blights the hope of beautiful lives; it wrecks the strong and the weak to gether ; it shivers the very foundations of society, and leaves the individual afraid to trust the stroug arms of those they love and upon whom they have heen taught to lean for protection. Surely the picture is complete, and the ruin of intemperance in the home is fearful. It is amazing taobser-e "how many are the ways in which strong drink moves upon the home to do its terrible worK. Perhaps the mother ol the home is a brave soul. She has said strong drink shall have no place there. To this brave stand the father has yielded and it looks as if that home is safe from the blighting curse, but it is not far from safety. Society has its peculiar ways of breaking down barriers and opening the way for the entrance of this mon ster. The home is not safe from its blighting touch, not even when father and mother both have agreed that it shall have no place there, for society will set up its demands in the face of the opposition of-the beads of the household, and through the influence of these demands the entrance is ef fected, the barrier tp broken down and strong drink rages in the home where it was thought to have no rights. TOWER OF CUSTOM. . Custom is a terror to temperance. It is customary to have eggnog at Christ mas time, and though the father and mother have no idea of having strong drink in their home, yet through this custom pressure is brought to bear and many a father and mother have yielded to the demands of custom, just this once, only to see King Alchol enthroned, first In their home and then in the lives of the father and the sons. It was only yielding to custom, but it meant ruin to the home. It was the shell from the enemies' gun, and it did its work most effectively. Again, there is the custom of wine served in the wedding supper, and so ciety says it is the custom and you must not break it. The heads of the boufre yield to the demand, made, ap parently in such Innocence, and yet it means the Wreck of one young man's life .and the destruction of one young man's spirit, wrecked in lime and for eternity, audit was only a little tribute to custom, the custom of a heartless society life. So far reaching Is this power of cus tom that it avails itself of almost every event that is out of the usual order of daily life and makes an oc casion thereof to drag Into its unholy power the homes of the best people, making havoc of the purity and happi ness of the true and the brave. Through the conventionalities of soci ety, strong drink gets into the homes of many of tne leading people of ouf land, and then, once entrenched there in, it is bold to take our sons and our fathers and lead them down the broad and beaten way to hell. Thus many a home is wrecked and ruined for time and for eternity, and in it all there is no purpose served higher than to hon or the most damnable tendencies and demands of a rotten society, the agent of the aich-enemy of man. These demands are not limited to the matter of strong drink, but almost every. conceivable sin uses the same artful way to get an entrance into the hearts and lives and homes of the best people of our land, and the sad pai t about it comes in the fact that so few men and women are found who have the courage to stand against this drift of society. They could face a tornado, or a battlefield where shot and shell are slaying thousands, or they could meet an epidemic and nurse the sick ana dying without fear for their own safety, but the cannot meet and boldly resist the power of this dreadful evil which we call the custom of so ciety. Better were It rightly named and boldly called the devil's flank movement to entrap souls into bis nit o. BTC Bears the iThaKind You flaw Alwar Bog that he mav give tbem a place in the bottomless pit. Some of these wily agents of his will lauch at me for the mention of the bottomless pit, but let tbem laugh, only let us pity them, for tbey laugh only as does the madman who is rush ing on to throw himself into the flames of a burning building, vainly suppos ing that he is escaping the miseries of the life from uh:ehhe is flnniro-. Ala' bow sad ! Intemperance in the home is the curse of our land. If we had temper ate fathers and mothers to govern our homes, we might escape mu ch of the ruin which comes upon us, and the faitfbful training of our boys in the ways of temperance, no matter what the customs of society may demand, will pave the way to have temperate men in the halls of legislation, both State and national, and this is the sure way to a temperance nation, and a temperance nation means great pros perity temporally, morally, socially and religiously. Surely temperance In the home is the high way to the land of plenty, flow ing with milk and honey. The Bore Who Introduces Speakers. Monroe Enquirer. Along in campaign time the fellow who could not get the front bench half full of men to hear h:m speak, occasionally gets an opportunity to bore a large crowd with his jingle jawed harangue on the issues ot the day as he introduces some prominent speaker. If anything on earth makes us tired it is to hear a little rattle headed, leather lunged wind pumper tooling his little bazoo and consuming time in intro ducing a speaker who can speak and whom the audience wants to hear speak Black aid dro3n. A good story oi college days is told of a negro gardner, a jolly fellow, with whom the boys used to have consider able sport. Sometimes be would floor them with his repartee. One "3uy ill spring Sambo had been burning the college green in order to get rid of the oil withered grass. A freshman came along, and thinking to have some fun, shouted : "Say, there, Sambo, you ought not to burn that stuff." "Why?" inquired Sambo. "Because," replied the freshman, it'll make the grass as black as you are." "Well, mass:!," retorted Sambo, dat's all right. Never you fear;dac ere grass'll come up and be as green as you are." Two of Life's Teachers. Life has two teachers example and experience. Lxperience Is a most ex cellent instructor, but, as has been said, his school fees are very high. xample gives his lessons in less notable and perhaps less effective ways, but he is more considerate of the wel fare of his scholars. Experience throws us into a deep pool of water, and says : "Now swim. Example goes along beside U", puts his hand under our shoulder, and says : "This is the way to do it." Experience . may be the teacher more to be trusted, but exam ple is often the teacher to be the more desired. The bold man goes to the school of experienca, and if, in the en1 he does not repent it, be at least ap preciates his rashness. The wise man learns by example, and his wisdom is justified of her chi ldren S. b. limes. SayJil His Life, Some of the British troops in the rish rebellion did not flghi particu- arly well. A certain general at a ord lieutenant's party in Dublin was admonishing a begging woman to eave the pla?e, when she said : "It is I that am proud to see your honor here in the red coat you wore the verv dav when vou saved the life of my little boy, Mick ie." "Indeed," replied the general, not sorry to hear anything to his credit on such a distinguished occasion. "1 had forgotten all about it. How did I save his life?" "Why, your hnor, when the battle, was at its hottest your honor was the first to run, and when me little Mickie saw the general, run he ran, too, the Lord be praised." The Interior.

I spent two honrs very pleasantly with General Gordon last Monday on the sleeper from Nashville to Bowling Green, Ky. His bow seems to abide in strength. He looks well, - talks cheerfully and hopefully. I looked at bis gray hair, his battle-scarred face and ielt that I was talking with the greatest living hero ot the civil war, on either side. General Gordon is as lov able and tender as a mother, as brave as a lion and as true as steel. His lect ure on "The Last Days of the Confed eracy" has been delivered by him north, south, east and west over the United States, and always to the delight of the people. Healing wounds, crushing out sectionalism and bringing about a thorough reconciliation of all warring elements, he is honored wherever he goes, cheered wherever he speaks and loved by all who know him. His pres ence is an inspiration to brotherhood. Long may he live and many more times may he deliver his masterful lecture on the "Last Days of the Con federacy I" I spent some hours with Henry Wat- terson some time ago on a B. & O. train between St. Louis and Louisville He is the brainiest living editor on this continent. There have been six great editors in my day Greeley, Dana, Mc Cullogh, Medill, Grady and Watterson The most brilliant ol the six Grady was gifted, bright, and enthusiastic. His rhetoric bad every color of tho rainbow, the fragrance of arose and the sparkle of the diamond. Poetry and pathos made bis pen and tongue as magnetic as a loadstone. Watterson, brilliant, versatile, talks as lovingly as a mother in. the nursery to-day, and tomorrow he writes asvic ious as a viper bites. He will take you into the Eden of his better side to-cay, then turn sides and swamp you like a cyclone from the earth tomorrow. His lecture on Abraham Lincoln is a mas terpiece of eloq lence and power. His editorials on the political situation in Kentucky are as full of venom as they are devoid of truth. Take Watterson out of partisan politic?, you read bim with delight, but when the light of his genius and the splendid powers ' of his mind are employed for partisan ends and perverted for political ends, the orcheatra is trana'ormed into a jargon of tin pans in a Fourth or July pfoees sion. Socially, Watterson is genial, pleasant, entertaining. On the plat form he is both orator and statesman ; on Kentucky politics hs is we shall riot 6M his like again. Be Honest. Tandem. Sit down and think about it, boys. Dj you want tobe honest men-men who can be trusted anywhere and with any amount of money? Then you begin being honest now. Never allow yourself take or retain a single peuny that is not your own, tak ing nothing without leave or without gi v ing in return. Pick no berries that are not on your side of the fence. Go in no orchard where you do not belong. Plunder no fruit irom gardens nor cheat your playmates in any trade. God loves honest boys and he 1 v 1 honest men. He says the man or b y who is falthfrd in a little will be faith ful in much, and we know that none but the faithful ones will have a place in his Kingdom. You stifle the yoice ol conscience when you allow your selves to take what does not belong to you. You scar or burn it with a hot iron so that it cannot feel, and keep on doing wrong ; keep on being dishon est and you will not care at all and will become, it may ba, a robber and lose all the bright things G d hi preened to the gcod. Hints For Girl3. Some one has suggested seven things that every girl can learn before she is fifteen. Not every one can learn to plav or sing or paint well enough to give pleasure to her friends, but the follow ing accomplishments are withm every body's reach : Shut the door, and shut it softly. Keep your own room in a tasteful order. Haye an hour for rising, and rise. Learn to make bread as well as cake. Never let a button stay off tweuty fi)iir hours. Always know where your things are. Never let a Jay pass withoir, doing somethi ng to make somebody comfortable. TrATTTT vssmsssssasmat CuRE kIL TOOS PAHS WITH Pain-Killer. A Medicine Chest in Keelf.
