As I remember the first fair touch Of those beautiful hands that I love so - much, I seem to thrill as I then was thrilled Kissing the glove that I found unfilled— - bow As you said to me laughingly, “Beep it y? © When I met your gaze and the queenly yr now ! And dazed and alone in adream I stand Kiss the ghost of your beautiful hand. When first I loved in the long ago, And held you hand as I told you so— Pressed and caressed it and gave ita kiss, And said, “I could die for this 7” Little I dreamed love’s fulness yet Hed to ripen when eyes were wet, And prayers were vain in their wild de- mands For one warm touch of your beautiful hands. a hand like Beautiful hands! O, beautiful hands ! Could you reach out of the alien lands Where you are lingering, and give me to-night Only a touch—were it ever so light— My heart were soothed, and my weary brain Would lull itself into rest again ; * For there is no solace the world com— mands Like the caress of your beatiful hands.

B, Bonner, of Aurora, on Sat- urday night, November 28rd. Judge W. A. Hoke is. presiding. The day has been consumed in selecting a jury out of a special venire of 350 men.

The trial probably. begius tu-morrow afternoont Thereisan immense crowd in eicidh No one is allowed in the Court House except the venire and those who have passes from Judge Hoke and the attor- neys, while the jury is being selected. Will. give you daily proceedings. Failure and Success. Many men in town ought to have gone to their busmess this morning with lighter hearts and a stronger determina- tion to push forward to success, after hearing the sermon of Presiding Elder Hall in the Methodist church Sunday night. It wasa splendid discourse, con- taining much practical thought upon fail- ures. and successes in both the business and Christian wold. Failure, said he, arises from one’s being in the wrong calling, again from an unwillingness to expend sufficient energy, and again through an unwillingness to sacrifice all—life if need be—upon the pursuit. Success in any undertaking comes through fitness, energy, sacrifice. Beneath every wreck, whether of a business or Christian life, is. a human being—a son of God and a brother of man—who should have sympathy and help instead of the harsp criticism that drives him to despair. Mr. Jackson Wins. Sometime ago the ReFLector offer ered a prize of five months tuition in English branches at Greenville Male Academy to the boy who would bring us the largest list. of subscribers for a year to our weekly before 6 o’clock on the 11th of January. The contest closed on last Saturday evening, and the prize was won by Mr. J. L. Jackson. He brought us just twenty subscribers, a pretty good list, and for his work gets a scholarship that is worth $15 to him. Other smaller lists were brought in but .he was wellin the lead. The RerLector congratulates Mr. Jackson upon his success, and feels gratitied that the prize has gone to a worthy young man who will prove a credit to himself and the school. During this year we shail have other prizes to offer and give notice to the boys to be un the lookout for them. Mamixms for Advertisers.
