Dumas to Young Men
ties
DumasT advice to young men
reads as follows: oWalk two
hours every day; sleep seven
~hours every night; go to bed
alone when you wish to sleep ;
work a8 Foon as you rise; never
eat unless you are hungry ; never
drink unless you are thirsty, and
always slowly. Never speak
unless it is necessary, and then|
aay only half you think. Write
only what you can sign. Doonly
what you can tell of. ~Never for-
get others count on you. but you
must neverT count on them.
Esteem money for neither more
nor less than it is worth ; it i8 a
good servant, but a bad master.
Keep awav from women until you
are 20 years old. Give them up
whea you are 40. Dont create
without recognizing the respou-
aibility, and destroy as little as
possible Forgive eyerybody in
advance; it is more sure. Neither
hate nor despise men, and do
mot laugh at them; pity them.
Think ot death every morning
when you see the light, and every
evening when you go inte the
Shadow. When you suffer very
much look your grief in the face ;
it alone can console you and it
will teach you much. Learn sim-
plicity,and how to be usefui, and
how to remain free, and wait to
deny God until He has proven to
the world He does not exist.
Glory for glory is a shameful
speculation. Men proud of their
celebrity are ignorant. Men vain
of their genius are fools.�
Charity ot Speech.
-" ~%
This is beautifully said:
Charity of sveech 13 as divine a
thing as charity of action. To
judge no one harshly, to miscon-
ceive no manTs motives, to believe
things are as they seem to be
until they are proved otherwise,
to temper judgment with mercy"
surely this is quite as good as fo
build up churches, establish
asylums and fourd colleges.
Wnkind words do as much harm
as unkind deeds. Many a heart
has been wounded beyond cure,
mapy a reputation has been
stabbed to death by a few little
woids. There is acharity which
consists 1n withholding words, in
keeping tack harsh judgments.
in abstaining from speech if to
speak is to condemn. Such
sharity hears the tale of slander,
put does not repeat it; listens in
silence, but forbears comment;
then locks the unpleasant secret
up in the very depths of the heart.
Silence can still rumor: it is
speech that keeps a story alive
and lends it vigor.-~Henderson
Gold Leat.
* Cultivate Less and Cultivate it
Better.
fhe intensive system of farm-
ing is the thing, and our farmers
must come to it sooner or later
Cultivate fewer acres, manure the
|
ed
Write plainly]
|the charges made against him as
or more on half the quantity of
land with less rest for :abor.
Here is an example, and others
are not lacking. The Goldsboro
Arets says: *
A farmer told as the other day
that instead of putting a twelve
acre lot in cotton he took the
same quantity of m:nure and ap~
plied it to six acres of the same
land, From the twelve acres he
bas been in the habit of getting
cix bales of cotton; this year be
has picked six bales of cotton
from the six acres, This is ao
oLject lesson for all who till the
soil.
THE COUNTRY PRESS.
Speaking on the above subject,
¥. W. Crooker, editor of the
Baintree, (Mass.) Obsoryer, re-
tently said:
Tho local papers are the mir-
rors of a town, and their editors
are expected oto rejoice with
them that rejoice and to weep
with them that weep.�
They must sit in the bald-head-
ed row at all entertainments, and
every story must be told right
side out.
They are in sympathy with
every movement tending to bene-
fitthe public and with due re-
spect to our churches and cur
gchools I will sav that the press
possesses the greatest power for
good of any institution in &@ com-
munity.
A minister preaches to an
audience of from 100 to 400 and
gets-"say $1,500 per year.
The editor prints hfs sermo�"�s, |
aod columns of matter upon the
topies ot the dar, reaching from
1.000 to 4,000 people every week
and what does he get? He gets
aliving avd perhaps 6 cursing
from the man whese name hap-
peus to be spelled wrong.
The doctor presides at a birth
and charges $10. The minister
performs marriage ceremony
el of beans to a handsome fee.
The undertaker proyides a
man with his last suit ot clothes
and charges a post mortem price ;
but the editor, who keeps a care-
fa} record of all that happens
from the cradle to the grave, and
then writes a@ grand obituary,
gets nothing. He does not even
have a chance to kiss the bride.
Itisnot my proyince at this
time te state what constitutes a
good local paper, but the editor
that understands his business
finds it as hard to tell what to
leave out as what to print. His
paper must be a faithful exponent
of facts and he must, with great
care, present the good and tae
evil. The paper that does this
must have the hearty co-operation
of the people, or die.
The people have much to do
with the success of the home
paper, aod the commanity is
known by the kind of paper it
supports.
When the Press, Pulpit and
PeopTe work together, the best
results are obtained.
The local papers are all work-
ing for good schools, good
roads, honest government, high
morals and low taxes.
Whatever support the papers
get they give out a hundred
times more than they receive, and
every citizen, whether he reads
the papers are not, is getting
some benefit from the press.

Butler Writhes in Vain.
Senator Butler has densed, or
made pretence of denying, (for it
isnTt a denial in fact), the truth of
to certain slanderous utterances
in his Rocky Mount sveech. .He
and gots anythivg"from a bush-|_
language should be attributed to
him. It-may be incidentally ob-
served that his indignation was
pot aroused until he saw that
$xtract from the Rocky Mount
paper copied by other papers,
with such comments as it suggest
ed, Butit wouldn't be such a
remarkable utterance tor Mr.
Butler after all, for he had pre-
viously said substantially the
same thing in his Caucasian, the
difference being that what he
wrote then was written with
thought and deliberation, and
what he said at Rocky Mount
might have been uttered in
warmth and without due deliber-
ation. ~he editor of the Windsor
Urient, who referred to the file of
of the Caucasion, found the fol-
lowing in the issue of September
30th, about two weeks before the
Rocky Mount speech was deliy-
ered : |
oThis awful crime of repe the
condemnation ot which should
be prompted by sincere motives
and honest purposes is used in a
hypocritical mauner * * * for
base and partisap ends, and all
the time they are condemaing the
nature of the crime they are
secretly longing for more rapes
that they may better play upon
the prejudices of the peoole.�
Insert the word ohire� in this
and it wou!d fit the Rocky Mount
case to a dot. Cf course the
persons he had in mind when he
wrote as osecretly longing for
more rapes that they may better
play upon the prejudices of the
people� were Democrats, and
consequently there is nc need to
ipsert oDemocrats.� But per-
haps Senator Butler may wiggle
out of this by saving that it
wasnT oSenator� Butler who
wrote that but oEditor� Butler, as
it wasnTt oSenator� Butler but
oEditor� Butler who carried his
peckets full of free passes on the
railroads. Under the circum-
stances, in the presence of the
above extract, that would be
about as gocd a defense as any
be has made."Wilmington Star.
Support the Local Industries
The real is fact the property
owner is the most dependent citi-
zen of a community. This of
course applies strictly to the
property owner who has property
to sell or rent. The laboring
man can leaye a place withont a
dayTs notice, but the property
owner cannot bundle ap his
effects and leave land and houses
to take care of themselves.
Therefore the greater the pros-
perity of a commuaulty, the great-
ar the independence of the prop-
erty owner, and as the business
welfare and the commercial in-
terests of a community Cecrease,
so must ths property ownerTs
independence. As the depen-
dence upen the trade interests of
values, the greater necessity of
the property owner giving his
direct support to everything
which sha!! increase trade and
build up his city."Newbern
