Words of Henry Grady.
When every farmer in the South
shall eat bread from his own fields
and meat from his own pastures,
and disturbed by no creditor, and
enslaved by no debt, shall sit
amidst his teeming gardens and
orchards, and vineyards and dairy
and barn-yards, pitching his
crops in his own wisdom, and
growing them in independence,
making cotton his clean surplus,
and selling it to his own time ar.d
in his chosen market, and not at
his master's bidding—getting his
pay in cash, and not in a receipted
mortgage that discharges his free-
dom—tben shall be the breaking
of the fullness of our day. Great
is King Cotton. But to lie at his
feet while the usurer and grain
raiser bind us in subjection is to
invite the contempt of man and
the reproach of God. But to
Bland up before him amid the
crops and smokehouses, wrest from
him the magna charta of indepen-
dence, and to establish in his
name an ample and diversified
agriculture that shall honor him
while it enriches us, this is to
carry us as far in the way of hap-
piness and independence as the
farmer, working in the fullest wis-
dom and in the richest field can
carry any people.
In the spring the human body needs assist-
ance to throw off the stagnation produced by
winter diet. As the temperature rises under
the ¿rowing heat of the sun's rays, we feel
tired, half sick and low in spirits, because the
blood is sluggish and full of impurities. Dr.
J. H. McLean's Strengthening Cordial and
Blood Purifier is a reliable spring remedy to
invigorate the blood and give tone to the di-
gestion. ' Pricc 50c and $1.00 a bottle.
If the man who has goods to sell
were the only person to be consid*
erec?, then protection would be bad
iu its general effect upon his busi-
ness, because he must first buy the
goods which he sells. But there
are others. Where one man sells
goods a hundred men have to buy.
The great majority of purchasers,
consumers, have a natural right to
all the benefits growiug out of fair
competition and free trade.

BOLD BY (VS. ALEXANDER A CO., SPECIAL AGENTS.
Your reputation is what men
think of you; but your character
is what God thijiks' of you, and
He makes no mistake.
When the world deals harshly
with you, do not croak; let the
frogs do that, for they understand
it better than you do.
You need not fear the dog that
barks at your face; but beware of
the one that snapB at your back.
lfsime man at whose shrire
you worship takes snufl, it is not
beBt for you to habitually sneeze.
When you happen to perform a
good deed, do not imitate the hen
whose instinct prompts her every
time she lays an egg to hop upon
the fence and cackle.
A long face and a whining tone
are not always the sign of superior
piety; but on the contrary, they
are more frequently tbe indication
of a disordered stomach.
Whenever you say anything de-
rogatory to a man behind his back
you ought to feel very mean when
you come into his presence feigning
friendship.
Women are usually charged with
the habit of gossiping; but we have
seen a few men in our time highly
accomplished in things of this
sort.
The most successful way to per-
petuate a slander is to preface your
evil words with a few remarks of
praise, and .then follow them up
with "but bo and so."
If you go to a man and draw
something out of. him "on the
square," and then go around re-
peating it, you are guilty of the
crime of moral perjury, and you
are not trustworthy.
The man who is so good that be
loves everybody jaat alike is not
good enough to love anybody with
deep affection and persistent sin-
cerity. He will do to inspeet.
When your innate meanness
leads you to main yourself es-
pecially disagreeable and unpleas-
ant, do not act the hypocrite and
excuse yourselfvupon the. plea of
nrrvousnees.
The true friend is not always
the man who whimpers around
you in protestations of devotion,
for that sort of person will do to
watch; but the real friend will
sometimes cross your judgment.
Do not spend all of your time in
searching for the faults of people,
but occasionly look for something
that is good in human character,
else you will become a snarling
old cynic.
Men always find that for which
they are looking, both in nature
and in morals. If you have a
mania for nosing out the unsavory
and tbe impure, you will certainly
find them.
The best gift-book—a bank book.
When befriended, remember it;
wheii you befriend—forget it.
A penny saved is two pence
clear.
Creditors have better memories
than debtors.
Poverty, poetry and new titles
of honor make men ridiculous.
If you are thinking of painting
your house or fence go to Ed J.
Neer's Drug Store and get the New
Bra High giade mixed paint at
$1.65 per gallon. Guaranteed 99
per cent pure. If you want some-
thing cheaper, get the Texas Special
prepared paint, Price $1.25 per
gallon.
Never Box or Pali the Ears.
The reason a blow on the ear
may do irreparable injury is that
the air, being driven suddenly and
violently against the drum of the
ear, might rupture the membrane
and cause incurable deafness, The
ears should never be pulled nor
meddled with in any way, except
to wash them in the gentlest man-
ner, tbe orifice being cleansed with
a fold of the wash cloth rolled into
a little cone.—March Ladies'Home
Journal. .
Chamberlain's dough Remedy.
This remedy is intended especially for
coughs, colds, croup, whooping cough and
influenza. It has become famous for his
cures of these diseases, over a large part of
the civilized world. The most flattering tes-
timcnals have been received, giving accounts
of its good works; of the aggravating and
persistent coughs it has cured; of severe colds
that have yielded promptly so its soothing
effects, and of the dangerous attacks of croup
it has cured, often saving the life of the child.
The extensive use of it for whooping cough
has shown that it robs that disease of all
dangerous consequences. Sold by all drug'
gist.
Kind Words.
That is a divine maxim which
tells us that "a gentle answer
turneth away wrath." Have we
not all, even the happiest and best
of us, sometimes need of kind
words and loving hearts, without
which life would be desolate?
Kind words have made many a
weak man noble, harsh oneB many
a vacillating one criminal; There
are times when the scales is evenly
balanced, when kindness will send
swinging down on the right of
truth, honesty, and manly virtue,
and when a rough word will turn
the scale balance for the last time,
on the side of wrong and even
falsehood.
To restore the Clear Skin, the bright eye,
the alert gait and sound health, use Dr. M
A. Simmons' Liver Medicine.
Mother and Babe
"R TONE but a mother knows the
pains, anguish and dread that a
woman endures before and during
childbirth. And still nearly all this suf-
fering is unnecessary. The faithful use of

distressing symptom, and labor itself will
not be a verv serious ordeaL Remember
